I was told I couldn’t have kids and so, I had to have a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) to have a life again and to stop going through what I was going through. I’m literally telling women and men, it really doesn’t matter if you can’t bear children. What really matters is what you would do for the world, for the universe.

More quotes by Nse Ikpe-Etim

Follow your energy and do what you love all the time; the distinction between work and play dissolves.

Drink water, do your squats, wear your wellies, eat your vegetables, wear your lipstick, and don’t let boys be mean to you.

Good friends always nudge you in the right direction.

Life is short. Make every side-eye count.

There is danger in letting people misname you. If you’re a fire, do not answer when they call you a spark.
