“I  met  the  most  amazing  person  on  set.  Not  only  is  her  bubbly  

personality  infectious,  she's  really  devoted  to  her  work  which  is  very  inspiring  #SisterhoodMatters”

"#SisterhoodMatters  to  me  because  when  no  one  else  understands  those  

low  moments,  a  sister  can.  Sisterhood  matters  when  all  you  

need  to  do  is  laugh  till  you  cry  even  in  the  midst  of  pain.  Sisterhood  

matters  when  you're  flat  broke  but  need  those  shoes  😂    

 So  today  I  celebrate  this  beautiful  woman,  Mrs.  Freda  Nyarko  of  FMS  Disposables.  She's  not  just  my  sister,  not  just  a  wonderful  mother  of  3,  not  just  an  awesome  wife,  but  also  one  of  the  most  industrious,  generous  

and  intelligent  women  I  know.  She's  my  inspiration!  I  love  you  big  sis!  Thanks  for  your  support  till  date!  

You  rock!  Keep  shining."

“#SisterhoodMatters.  Amazia.  My  angel  on  earth!  Words  fail  me  as  I  try  to  talk  about  how  awesome  

you  are.  Your  friendship  means  so  much  to  me.  God  bless  you  

Mama!"

"Meet  my  running  buddy  Cathy;  she  is  too  fired  up  to  get  us  to  10k  in  30mins.  Her  #sisterhoodmatters  

to  me  much  much.  Staying  fit  whiles  sharing  great  ideas.  

 

This  lady  runs  like  a  deer    -­‐  iron  sharpeneth  iron.  I  so  appreciate  her  contribution  with  each  target  

we  fix  for  ourselves.”

“Sisterhood  matters  to  me,  because  I  don't  know  where  I'd  be  without  my  sisi  Tonye.  Her  tenacity  and  the  sacrifices  she  makes  for  her  career  are  awe-­‐inspiring.  

Always  allows  me  to  terrorize  her  when  I'm  having  an  offday.  Always  makes  me  feel  great.  Seriously  

nothing  like  family.”

"Who  would  I  be  without  my  girls?  My  babies  are  my  biggest  

cheerleaders,  and  I  can  only  hope  that  they  will  one  day  say  the  same  

about  me.  @tosinger  is  pretty  dope  too.

“It's  difficult  to  pick  just  one  woman  for  the  #SisterhoodMatters  campaign,  so  my  post  goes  out  to  my  wonderful  

mother,  aunts  and  girlfriends.  This  life  would  be  so  dull  without  you!”

Khadija:  "Being  friends  with  Ivie  has  really  been  a  great  experience.  Even  though  her  'sermons'  and  words  of  wisdom  can  be  annoying  at  times,  I  

appreciate  how  she  constantly  challenges  me  to  be  a  better  person…

Ivie  has  really  become  a  sister  and  I'm  so  thankful  to  have  her  in  my  life."  

 Ivie:  "Khadija  is  an  amazing  friend.  One  thing  that  I'm  grateful  for  is  that  she's  taught  (or  should  I  say  forced)  me  to  be  less  selfish  and  more  caring  to  others.  

We  may  drive  each  other  insane  sometimes,  but  we'll  forever  have  each  other's  backs,  which  I  believe  is  the  true  

mark  of  sisterhood."

“Ewurasi  &  Ofie  /  This  week  I  learned  that  a  true  mentorship  is  as  rewarding  for  the  mentor  as  for  

the  mentee.  I  had  somehow  sensed  that  and  am  happy  I  am  in  some  of  those  mutually  beneficial  

relationships.  Here  @ewurasi_adepa  and  @ookodjoe

“Today  is  the  last  day  of  March  so  I  thought  I'd  tell  you  why  

#SisterhoodMatters  to  me...  Because  every  step  of  the  way  a  phenomenal  woman  has  built  me  up,  supported  me,  laughed  with  me,  and  cried  with  me.  It's  little  things  and  big  things  but  they  all  make  me  see  what  a  

spectacular  support  system  I  have.  I  can't  tag  everyone  but  you  know  

yourself!  xx

“To  these  two  amazing  women,  thank  you  for  giving  us  another  

reason  to  celebrate  all  the  incredible  &  supportive  women  in  our  lives.  I  have  some  amazing  males  in  my  life  but  without  sisterhood,  I  don't  know  

where  I  would  be.  I  am  who  I  am  because  of  women  who  have  

allowed  me  to  be  me  and  those  who  challenge  me  to  be  the  best  version  of  myself.  Glad  that  I  have  chosen  to  surround  myself  with/look  up  to  a  sisterhood  of  women  that  seek  to  uplift  and  support  other  women.”
