“A woman who has inspired me is my mum, Ellen De Sagun. Throughout my life, she has been my rock. She never once doubted what I was capable of achieving at university, and even through the toughest times, she always stayed positive.”
“I could always count on her to be on the sidelines, cheering me on, and she believed in me even when I doubted myself. She’s my number one supporter and the strongest woman I know. Every day, I aspire to be like her and practice the kindness, patience, gratitude, and love she shows to others. Mum has taught me to strive to be a better version of myself every day, and I would be proud to become even half the woman she is.”
