"@afyanahakiug put me on a pedestal and made me believe in myself and what I had to offer the world because, there, my voice mattered, I was seen and valued, but mostly I was supported. Some challenges helped me grow very much, and by the end of my time there, I had a clear trajectory of what I wanted to pursue in my career."- @chem_syndia in the story.
