Power,they say everyone has power within them,but how do we shift it?

To me power starts from our mind being the main processor, therefore if one is not stable mentally then however much power you have,you can't shift.

Again one can be at peace,with greatest ideas that moves people in a room,but without proper resources, platforms and accessibility towards funding those ideas,MOST ideas have rested with them or within them.

From a young age,my greatest desire was transformation for the Best,having being a victim of child abuse,Lossing my parents out of HIV/AIDS stigmatization, menstrual /hormonal traumas,early marriage/child birth and gender based violence. To mean I had known areas I wanted to handle,How do I quench my thirst of a better world?

Lack of access to better /equal or no funding at the grassroots level,no organisation,or selfishness from some organisation using your ideas without including you.lack of access to ready internet/wifi as leonida from Kenya addressed.has left most of us invisible and due to prolonged invisibility the heart wants but the will is worn out

To me this new phace of #shifting power,begins with stable mental health, available individual funding plus accountability of the funds,rooting for each other,moving together,and fair visibility by organisations just in case they use your ideas.

We all can shift the power
