I bring together your people, processes, and platforms (tools) to create a beautiful symphony rather than something a bored/cranky toddler does on pots and pans.

Last night at Sophie Jane Lee’s book launch, Kemi Gates said:

“Take what blesses and ignore what vexxes.”

And being in that room with so many LEGENDARY women, I felt hella blessed.

(And this morning… slightly vexxed when I saw all the tags and realized how many amazing women I would have loved to squeal-hug but did not because I was too engrossed on the dance floor. Where is a TARDIS when you need one!)

From hearing the magic of Yinka, whose wisdom is always like a nutrient shot to my spirit, to seeing Sophie looking radiant, surrounded by love, admiration and support so visceral it could have been bottled.

From Laura lending me her power bank when she saw me charging my phone by the coat check and thus reminding me that those who are seen are also helped by those who care.

To walking into the library of the Royal College of Physicians and joking that I ended up there anyway. Just not the way my parents imagined, and without the debt or the burnout.

And to all the brilliant women I spoke with, laughed with, and danced alongside last night, please know the admiration was very much mutual.

Something about seeing someone else’s vision come to life so beautifully is incredibly healing.

And it got me thinking about the vision I want to materialize too.

That vision has been running in my consciousness like a permanent subroutine for years. Some parts of it decades old.

For a long time I would do “flash-forward meditations” to borrow resolve from the future-me who already knew how things turned out.

But something clicked for me today.

That moment is not a beginning.
And it is not a return either.

It is a continuation.

The woman in my vision with salt-and-pepper hair is not that different from the one writing this post.

She is just doing the same work with more of the system built around her.

And that realization did something unexpected.

It removed the pressure to “arrive.”

Because continuation does not require perfection.

Just the next step in the sequence.

So thank you, Sophie, for being so fully yourself that you help others see themselves too.

Kemi was fiercely correct when she called your work a mirror.

I have lived the beauty of it.

PS - Thank you for blessing my life with rooms like this Yinka Ewuola, Louise Blackburn, Nicola Crooks-Ramgeet, 'Ronke Kokoruwe, Vicky Quinn Fraser and Sophie Blackmore

What’s your favorite story? 

Mine is the turtle and the hare. Slow and steady wins the race isn’t just a tagline, it’s a strategy. And I love a good strategy. 

I live and breathe strategy, research and storytelling so that my clients and customers can do research that matters and make a real impact. My clients use research to:

* Grow revenue and sales (I love working with entrepreneurs and small businesses)
* Secure funding and grants
* Influence policy and drive change
* Improve community & organizational outcomes, especially health outcomes.

I don’t do reports that sit on a shelf or publications no one has access to. After working with me, you’ll not only have the right data, you’ll have a story that turns insights into action.
