From the depths of despair, I found my purpose. Once deemed unworthy in my community and family, I fought through sorrow and loneliness to become a mother to many. Despite being stigmatised, I endured the pain of childlessness. A small boy on a birthday party desperately cried “Mum “calling me. That was my turning point. Now I spend my days helping parents and children in their journeys of transformation.
