In this episode of Selam, I share my journey from silence to strength, from brokenness to boldness. Growing up in the Ethiopian and Sudanese community, I learned to quietly exist, but adulthood showed me the cost of silence—decisions I made for others, relationships I said yes to that I shouldn’t have, and the impact of never feeling truly seen.

Now, as a mother and a woman stepping into my God-given power, I reflect on reclaiming my voice, trusting my instincts, and saying no when it matters. This episode is raw, real, and a call to action: your voice matters, your story matters, and your presence is powerful, sis.
