When I got married, my husband encouraged me not to change my last name. At the time I did not fully understand why.
Now, building Kris Asimonye as a brand, I understand completely.

Moving to the UK comes with so many questions as a parent…
“How does the education system work?”
“When should my child start preparing for GCSEs or the 11+?”
“How do I help my child settle academically?”
Tomorrow, we’re having a warm and practical LIVE conversation around navigating the UK education system after moving to the UK 🇬🇧📚
Joining me is:
@krisasimonye
Kris Asimonye Ugboma
Founder & Creative Director of GoodGiriCode ✨
And I’ll also be sharing insights from my experience as Principal of Tecnis Academy supporting children and families across the UK education system.
This is not one of those overly formal conversations
It’s a real discussion for parents trying to understand the system, support their children confidently, and make informed academic decisions early 💛
🗓 Date: 16th May, 2026
⏰ Time: 7:00PM (UK Time)
Save this post, share with another parent, and join us LIVE tomorrow ✨

Reminiscing on the last 17 years of motherhood… ❤️
10 months pregnant… four times in a row.
Three times in the labor ward.
One near-death ectopic pregnancy that changed my life forever.
Through it all, I have loved, nurtured, sacrificed, and lived selflessly for my children — and I do not regret a single moment.
The sleepless nights.
The endless homework evenings.
Never missing school events or graduations.
No sick days off from motherhood. The exhausting months of raising two toddlers while heavily pregnant in the USA, far from family support…
The tears, the exhaustion, the silent prayers… it was all worth it.
I poured everything I had into motherhood.
My time.
My body.
My sleep.
My business.
My entire existence became centered around loving and raising my children.
And if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: motherhood is not easy, but it is one of the deepest forms of love there is.
Now my babies are growing older, and for the first time in years, I am slowly beginning to breathe again… slowly finding pieces of myself while still being their safe place.
To every mother silently giving her all every single day — I see you.
Your sacrifices may go unnoticed by the world, but they are shaping lives forever.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the strong, tired, beautiful mothers. ❤️
Not invited… but still the moment.
If I walked the Met Gala carpet, this is what I’d wear.
Akwa Ocha — handwoven heritage.
White coral — power, purity, legacy.
Every bead. Every stone. Intentional.
African artistry is not a trend.
It is history. It is identity. It is luxury.
The white thread of power — worn as art, carried like a crown.
This wouldn’t just be fashion.
It would be legacy. 👑

I stopped forcing my body…
and started moving with it.
A quieter approach.
More intention in the small things.
Hydration. Rest. Gentle movement.
Nourishment from within.
In a few months, everything softened —
my body, my mood, my mind.
This is what a soft life feels like…
aligned, not rushed.

City strolls to museum stories, Brussels is giving me the perfect mix of culture, charm, and fun 🤍🍫
