by Kabasinga Samantha KagaboDear reader, I have been experiencing a lot of down days lately. With the workload increasing, I struggled to find time to pause and refresh my thoughts, which resulted into substantial drainage. It has been especially hard to be in the right headspace for anything outside of work duties. Nonetheless, I have been intentional to […]
by Kabasinga Samantha KagaboI was born and raised in Rwanda, and I am light skinned. For some reason, most people do not expect me to be from Rwanda due to my skin colour – which is crazy because I have met Rwandans lighter than me. Ever since I can remember, people have often made comments in relation to […]
by TeakisiBy Cynthia Kinyera I recently heard of body neutrality and one of my first thoughts was… why am I just finding out about this now? Most of us have heard of body positivity, which has been popularised in media and championed by many celebrities. But it has never completely “clicked” for me, and learning about […]
by Anesu NyakubayaWe all know nothing comes easy, this includes our happiness. More often than not you are your biggest obstacle when it comes to this aspect of your life. Identifying this is step number 1. You need to understand, NO ONE WILL GIVE YOU PERMISSION TO BE HAPPY. You have to give it to yourself. Choosing […]
by TeakisiBy Caroline Numuhire For three decades now, I am privileged to be alive and to have searched for happiness. What a great adventure it has been, and if God had to take me ten years back, I would cheerfully jump on to the opportunity. However, my journey for happiness was never a straight line with […]

We just have to find it.” The secret is, if we remain faithful to the image of our life that we have created in our mind; such image will […]
by TeakisiBy Felly Oyuga I am going through my Whatsapp and come across a post in one of our groups. The post is about a woman who posted on Facebook that her husband watches porn with their six-year-old son. She then claims to cry about it daily. Everyone’s typical reaction is rage against the husband. Understandably. […]
by TeakisiBy Naide Obiang Elle ouvre les yeux à… Un monde qui cherche toujours à la manipuler, comme un pion à un jeu de Ludo. Une société qui insiste à vouloir l’immortaliser en statue de plaisir. Une communauté qui ne cesse à vouloir amoindrir sa valeur. Et toute une famille qui espère profiter d’elle. Tous […]
by TeakisiBy Afia Kwakyewaa Owusu-Nyantakyi 2017 was an interesting year, given events that happened as well as the conversations that spurred from those events. From dinner tables to online spaces, there were several social issues that erupted and women were right in the thick of it, globally and locally. In my own backyard, Ghana, I want […]
by TeakisiBy Felly Oyuga I had the misfortune of reading a Facebook post by a not so bright man, who said that infidelity would stop if women stopped being their own enemies and said no to men. Many women liked and shared the post. It seems that we live in a world where it is easier to blame the women than to hold […]
It’s nice to know that we have ladies committed to help us get what we think it’s not possible. Teakisi showed me that everyone, no matter your age or gender you can do trainings in every category and be what you want to be. Thank you again Teakisi. Remain strong for us.
Brilliant presentations. Very informative, enjoying and learnt a lot. More of these types of events please.
