When I was 21, after I was done with Uni, I told my parents I wasn’t moving back home. They expected it, and they set me free. All my life I wanted to be a creative, and I knew home – Mangochi, wouldn’t offer me the growth I desired.

Some of my clients are based in SA, and getting payments from them can at times be tricky, especially in times where I have to use the bank, or go to forex bureaus to collect my cash. Thanks to EcoCash Remit, I am able to receive my money directly into my airtel money account in seconds – with great exchange rates!

I never had to look far, when I learnt of drawing inspiration, and finding role models. I have always had one role model – my mother, the strongest and most brilliant woman I know – the first female ship captain of Malawi.

You asked – so here it is. My new home (tour – moving + renovations). Also here sharing with you my 2020 gratitude list, some lifechanging decisions I have made lately, and plans for the year ahead.

The idea of tying the year 2020 to gratitude seems like such a stretch; but I also know that not everybody has had an entirely horrible year.

I’m looking back at the year that has been, and I do believe I have a lot to be grateful for – both personally and professionally.

As an individual, I have evolved a lot since I wrote and published By The End of Your Teens. What was a well-meaning, and very honest body of work, I am not sure I can fully stand by anymore.
