This one is for me…
Thank you to me… really, for dreaming, for believing 🥹
I have fought my way to this place right now and I love where this is going… I’m happy and really grateful that I did this against every single odd and there were a ton of them
Started this journey over a decade ago… about 11 to 12 years ago precisely and oh the tears I’ve cried, the work I have had to do, the refinement I have undergone… I’m so glad this story is taking great shape now and I cannot wait to see what’s in front of me from here on out .
Thank you JoyElla for having willpower as strong as a rock(according to
@iamthechide ), for dreaming and chasing those dreams doggedly even when only you could see the vision, oh you’re such a phenomenal woman and I’m eternally grateful for you.
This one is for my friends, every single one of you!
Thank you so much for being here, encouraging me, being an anchor and investing your money even without my asking🥹
Thank you for pushing me on the days I no longer wanted to do this, for screaming my name at the top of your voices in rooms that mattered, I’m forever grateful to every single one of you and I love you to pieces!
This one is for my sisters, for being my safe space, worrying for me, crying for and with me, covering me, carrying me, praying for and with me, I couldn’t have asked for better sisters… my love for you is insane!
One more dream is now my reality and my name has changed forever, Gloryyyyy💃
God really looked at me, carried me, covered me, held me and ultimately crowned me!
She’s now J.O Okwute Esq, BL, LLB!
