"Lioness"
Being a black woman is just so empowering. We have so many odds against us, but it doesn't stop us from achieving greatness and being free. I think our power truly comes from this ability to persevere and make it look effortless. Now as an Igbo woman specifically? First thing that comes to mind: lioness. We are so powerful. We're leaders, we're business women, we're matriarchs, we don't take 'No' for an answer. There's just a certain pride that comes with being 'nwaanyi Igbo ' and I thank my Chi for allowing me to be one!
