"He makes a way where there’s no way. He moves mountains and fills valleys. He makes the blind to see. He loves me unconditionally. His word never returns to Him void."

"Remain humble. Give back. Take care of you. Stay fab, don’t hate; hating takes too much effort."

"I have since learnt that there is a process to success and that process can break or build us depending on our beliefs and inner strength. Our thoughts can make or mar us so be careful what you’re thinking about."

"We have walked on that street called hope but having each other makes it bearable. It requires sacrifice & it takes effort & nurturing. You want a good marriage? Work at it!"

"Some people eventually die at 80 but the Truth is, they have been dead since they were in their 30s”"

"Be mindful how you treat your staff, because if you treat them shabbily, they would not put their best."

"Anti-ageing should begin with de-clogging the body and the mind from years o f grime instead of covering it up with creams and makeup. Some of the bad choices we make in life can age us faster than calendar years."

"When you save the life of one woman, you save a generation who would otherwise be without a mother."

"Change begins with how we as women see, treat and fight for other women. Change truly begins when we do."

"No woman should be anybody’s fool. But if you say should a woman stoop to conquer, then why not."

"Celebrity couples should stop living their lives on twitter and Instagram; it’s ok in the real world for couples to disagree."

"Personally, I don’t think any woman is ugly. Beauty is as much in character as it is in the physical."

"make no apologies for who you are. adorn your life with roses… fragrances and yes, you can stay fab at any age as long as you don’t outsource your happiness… defy all ageing sterotypes…wear your heels, swirl and strike a pose. work that body!"

"No struggle or journey in life is a piece of cake… but the icing on the cake is when our tests become testimonies."

"Be a leader with a heart… don’t take all the credit for what it took a team to build. encourage your team to have bigger goals and appreciate everyone’s contribution."
