      <description><![CDATA[<p>The Saibatu Mansaray Journey needed some time to reset and focus on self-care. Having lived through a very overachieving career, I need to learn how to stop and smell the roses and that time is NOW.  The world we live in today has set the tone that if you’re not overworking yourself then success will be hard to come by. We tend to label our friends, family members and colleagues as lazy or unmotivated when they are not overwhelming themselves to attain success. No one hardly says take a break, bosses barely ask about the health and welfare of their employees,  leaders and family avoid using a soft approach to motivation, it’s more of a do or die. Ariana Oluwole, a transformational coach, “edupreneur,” and an African woman who has been featured on BBC -focus on Africa and CNN- African Voices for a Change Maker special feature joins me in this episode to chat about self-care and its importance for health and wellbeing. </p><p>You don’t want to miss:</p><ul><li>Her perspective on self-care and her journey</li><li>How to normalize and integrate self-care and mental health in schools</li><li>The mistakes of high-performing individuals leading to burnout</li></ul><p>Through my story and those of my amazing guests, I pray that our message touches the lives of people to be inspired and serve as a catalyst for action.

      <title>Sexual Reproductive Health in African Youth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In light of our youth month, today The Saibatu Mansaray Journey sits with a passionate Ethiopian medical practitioner who has dedicated his profession to public service and for many years  his focus has been on maternal and sexual reproductive health. During our chat, we tie poor SRH with maternal mortality and the state of affairs of our teenagers. I highlight stats about the impacts poor SRH has on our youth worldwide.  

You don’t want to miss:

The state of affairs of our youth and teenage pregnancy
The role of schools, religious leaders and parents have on reducing teenage pregnancies
The call to action for SRH Global Ambassadors 

Through my story and those of my amazing guests, I pray that our message touches the lives of people to be inspired, encouraged and informed all on all things faith, empowerment, global health, and beloved Mother Africa.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>As we close this month chatting with some fierce women, we sit down with Madam Naasu Fofanah a Sierra Leonean sexual based violence survivor, author, entrepreneur and women’s rights activist to discuss the state of affairs in my home country. Naasu gives us her take on the root cause of sexual based violence in Sierra Leone and her experience as a teenager.
