22. The Power of Purpose and Passion

FIERCE Mothers

This week I chat with the vivacious Ekene. Ekene Onu is the founder of Refresh with Ekene, a coaching and consulting company. She is a certified professional and emotional intelligence coach, who is also certified in Organizational and change leadership. Ekene started her working career as a pharmacist and practiced for close to two decades prior to starting Refresh with Ekene. She started her company in response to the need she saw with the professional and high achieving women who came to her pharmacy every day with prescriptions for high blood pressure, insomnia, depression and other challenges. She also felt a need to shift in her own life. She went through her own personal journey and transformed her career path, health state and way of living. Now she travels the country teaching, training, speaking and creating amazing beautiful experiences for women to get refreshed. She is the author of four books, two of which are fiction. I just finished reading her second fiction book “Aristocrat Wives” and I could not put it down. It was amazing. Ekene recently launched a new podcast called “Iconic Womanhood with Ekene.” She launched the podcast to learn wisdom from fabulous women across the diaspora. In this episode, we discuss her tenacity, which clearly she inherited from her mother, as you will hear when you listen. We discuss her journey to transformation and how she knows she is living her life’s purpose and passion.

Ekene has authored the following books:

1. Can I be real? Notes on life, love and faith.

2. The Mrs. Club

3. Aristocrat Wives

4. Thrive - The 28 Day Self Care Journal for Women
