#Growingup, everyone said I should be a lawyer. I talked a lot, questioned everything, and loved a good argument (still do 😄). Add a steady obsession with John Grisham novels and a retention of legal jargon, it all made sense. But 7-year-old me? I wanted to be a fashion designer. Not because I enjoyed sewing (I really didn’t), but because it sounded fancy and I’ve always liked fancy things. Fast forward to my teenage years, I discovered Robin Cooks’ novels and became certain: I was going to be a medical doctor. A neurosurgeon to be precise, thanks to Dr. Ben Carson’s #GiftedHands. It seemed like a SMART goal. I loved the sciences and got admitted into the Department of Medicine and Surgery. My goal was on track. Or so I thought 😊. Then reality hit. Medicine in real life wasn’t like the novels. Midway through university, I switched to Microbiology, and loved it. Around the same time, I discovered The Apprentice US, (yes with Donald Trump). The business pitches, strategy, marketing and all, I was hooked. By my third year, I had clarity:
👉🏽 I was going to be a business leader, and I was have a role in Marketing and Communications. From then on, I made intentional steps to make this a reality. At the time, Marketing or Communications wasn’t a “dream job” you heard about in Nigeria or on foreign TV shows. No visible role models. No one said, “I want to be a brand manager when I grow up.” Advertising had some glitz, but Brand Management & Comms? Practically invisible. That’s why this award is so significant. Because #visibility (when done right) matters. I’m grateful to #GLG Communications, the Jurors and @guardiannigeria for this honour and recognition. Thank you 
 It is my hope that when a young man or woman searches for a “career in MarComms” today , they’ll find not just a job title, but real people to look up to. Here’s to purpose, pivots, and showing the next generation that their dreams can evolve beautifully. #PRPowerlist #WomenInMarketing #CommsLeadership #PurposeDriven #MarketingCommunications #Leadership #Nigeria #CassandraUzoOgbugh #GLGWorldPRDay #WorldPRDay

I have struggled to do this openly for the past 4 years…. I had always preferred to reach out to people privately…and my reason was simple, I don’t want to be a poster girl for infertility, especially while still on the journey… . . But God keeps leading me back to this, He keeps reminding me He gave me a VOICE and a BOLDNESS for this topic. . So in total submission to the Will of God (😊), I’m kicking off a SUPPORT GROUP for anyone going through #infertility. “Any” means Female and Male. . We will meet once a month on Zoom, the objective is to just give people a space where they can freely talk, but above all be inspired and encouraged. Note: This isn’t going to be a “woe is me” platform, if you are going through Infertility, you have a right to LIFT YOUR HEAD, and still be that person God created you to be even as you go through this journey. It is a journey, because by the grace of God, there is a destination and it’s a good one. . Our first meet up is Saturday, 5th of October by 6pm WAT. Details are on the flier, and zoom link is in my bio. This is a non-denominational platform, all faiths are welcome. . Please share with anyone you know, who might benefit from this, or is just looking for a safe support group, Thank you.

I spent my actual birthday like a proper adult 😄. I had used the Easter break for all the shenanigans…🥰 . I went to work, and then in the evening I went to pay my last respect to a recently departed elder at his Service of Songs. . My colleagues however made it fun, and getting sooo many cakes (8 in total), made it special. . Thank you all for the warm wishes, posts and prayers. I’m really grateful, and my prayer is that you all will be celebrated on your day too in Jesus name. . God bless you all! ❤️❤️ . #Aprilbaby #Birthdaygirl #caseogbugh
