Angeline is a woman who wants to see other women breaking the shackles of fear that stop them from succeeding in life. She believes women must overcome every challenge they face and strive for greatness. “Surround yourself with people who are able to mentor you to be a great person so that you may be able to achieve your full potential,” she says.
Angie has started a Confidence Building programme which empowers women to boost their confidence. This programme positions them to stand out from the crowds and prove to the world that they are no lesser beings when compared to men.
“The world is waiting for female game changers therefore we must recreate something new which will be beneficial to all the people and bring about positive change. But we need to see value in ourselves first before we can be recognized by others,” said Angie.
