is the only for the present in the stories and issues that are being discussed across the country. news africa. in 60 minutes on the w. german west port winning offered because of the world wide. and for every language level, learning german has never been simpler. german to go hello there and welcome to another edition of the 77 percent. the show for us because use of free cousins who spend time abroad beat for studying or watching can and do give a lot back to the continent. today's show is all about the empowered women who have returned to their native country and are now the architect of change.

coming up on this special homecoming edition. we made, let's you know, we try to kind of to form a company and take the flashing industry for what we have now. we've been baldwin, soup, assess us a, the queen of alma piano for a candidate had to had checked and finally get up to some past notes with the bean . my check had to be looked for example, now cool. can they see what's, why not cool? now a 1st woman on the show is a be to me of resilience and reboot it. one will go survived a refill accident in the us and how do we learn the most basic things like talking, reading and walking. but as soon as she recovered, she did the am imaginable. she popped up a badge and beat good bye to the country. so that had been whole for 16 years. it

will be time to attend that with a renewed sense of purpose. she now imposes messes by making sure they are trained and registered to walk in other countries and girls that the suit hot b u, as the guidelines are really bad cause and that changed my it got me thinking that there's more to life and there's more than i can do after 16 years in the us, letting me back because i'm a great, i am a marketing director for west big college. wesley college is a college for anyone that's currently that's interested in studying anywhere in the k, canada or the us. and the train, but that don't have students into and also be taken by rod. after the pandemic, we saw that there were a lot of registered nurses that may be left to jobs and also because the embassies

were closed. people weren't able to come in to any of those countries. we saw there's a huge shortage of just for the health care. and we saw that also. so we want to fill in that and also for originally on a narrow b can. so it has 10 years old, my mom's card, and we're able to go to the us. i learned to disappoint natalie on my side. and when i was 16 and i was able to get professional and just talking loud response america, you're kind of talking can be any one you want us to really bad doing that car walk, talk, read everything the you have to learn us physically. a child such as the learning and doing that process,

i'm thinking there has to be more to mind. that's the more for me to do. if i can get past this, i can do so fast forward a few years, i decided i want to make the biggest change in my life. and i want to go to connect to, to, and i figured out i don't want to just hop from being really finding you was i want to come to the actual ground. i went to my family and my friends that i was moving back. they definitely went and all excited because i was supposed to be in the land of the great mission that i don't understand. now i've been here for a while and been able to see my mission and what i want to do, and they understand a little bit more the, the biggest thing i'm not having to run into much much

more balance so much more as well as my advice for you have that feeling following, try it out in college. and you'd be surprised. mine when you line and and your mission and what part of my is on and you know, you, my actually just been up staying and living in kenya. he's been sort of incredible women. look at me, for example. okay. okay. seriously though, we have another inspirational story for you, straight out of kenya, now or channel attended college in the us, but it was one of the hardest times of her life on top of experiencing all minors

of culture shock, lead was diagnosed with leukemia. luckily, she got better and even started to 5, but the thoughts of home t a tag, a to hot, so she decided to move back. and today, she's the creative director as fond of a flash on, and taylor and company in kenya, vermont, i decided i was moving to okay. now one of the things is you've made a voice, the tickets, but it's like one of the scariest things to ever do because they keep changing your life in time. of course, like you're planning to like i show, you know, i'm just a, my name is lel channel. i am the founder and crew to the extra function engine company. acura thing, design, intelligent walk show. and that will be so much as a company a founded primarily because of just come back from the us. one of the services i wanted badly was like 2 bedrooms have this is and they didn't really have access to

the click. i didn't know where you go to access taylors and get something done. then what your vision behind is primarily was to enable other people like me in the same situation, to have better access to tailors intent as also have the to access to customers. i was born in home of the county. i'm home of the town that at the time my favorite memories as a child will probably be expanding time. i say grandmothers in kind of showing sure that a song should take your name and time it into a song such, i'm graduating high school in 2009 i go to college shaped was i the i forgot to goes to have you had some, some college in the united states. one of the things that happened to me while i was in college that goes back noses. leukemia in hindsight, it's realizing that you know what i was probably at the best place at the best time to be able to have such a terrifying experience. but also to be able to receive the kind of kids that i

needed to be able to get through that. because one of the things that if i look back is if i was maybe somewhere else, let's see if that had fun. mean, kind of what day we have been able to like, you know, go through the smoky and, you know, come off of it. i think the latch and pools for coming back was essentially to bid on family. because even when i was going to my treatment to my mom was only able to come for like about 2 weeks to a month. so i've gone through that spewed not having the my need to have somebody that with me. one of them are 2 visions for coming back to can now was after being there for about like 6 years, you want to have deep connections. for example, i think as, as a come to disconnect a little bit different from the moment i'm sure, and i just started obviously if there were people who are able to mix up with the navy woods off of back nick the team as we walk through the people you by 5 minutes from and either let you know other people in that venue chain. so that's what nicholas was feeling. my advice to anyone thinking about moving back is,

seems to most important. having a financial question is always important. so that when you come back, you're able to do it yourself option into whatever to the, to entity, whether you're interested in a business, you can find it or you can switch for a job that satisfies and fulfills the needs that you have from east africa. we move to the south where it's time for us to meet this in, baldwin, queen of i'm a piano, so she's tied to thinking of the age of 1712 she is on. she hasn't to buck. but what i love most about trash is how strongly she trump to and a sister who and women's empowerment. my colleague josie, my heart, you caught up with joshua the foundation festival in portugal. enjoy. hey everybody . this is sha sha and you are watching d w b 77 percent. the

face image 7 percent as not so happy sitting next to me is my home girl. so all the way from zimbabwe says how you doing? i'm good, i'm good. can't complain. i'm excited, i see, and you look so beautiful. thank you very. thank you. and you are held by many as the queen of i'm a piano. do you think you've lived up to that? oh, i believe i do. i really have, i have, i have, i've been, i've been uh, putting out those hits like from yesterday and it should be. yeah. and how uh so that becomes involved with a freak of the world receiving your music. oh my god, it's actually very humbling. you know, the way people have received my music and i've been touring, i've been performing around and having to see how people have been, you know, just, they've been listening to people sing back my music when i'm on stage. it is so crazy as a young woman you, i a role model to a lot of them. how do you really want to inspire them?

oh wow. how and what is by them? oh, my gosh. i feel like, you know, the way i, i would say is i leave my life right. i do my life in a way that i hope to god that it touches somebody and they're able to emulate not necessary to emulate exactly who i am. but i believe to find their true selves and i, i believe that's exactly what i kind of put out there with my own music is finding your to identity, your true core. because i've seen using it for the soul, you know, and i believe that, you know, finding it yourself into identity. that's the best place to get ever start. and from there, i mean, the sky is not suspended. yeah, i mean, but the entertainment industry can be tough, especially for women. how are you dealing with that man? i would definitely say that, you know, for, for myself, i been so lucky that i've had a beautiful team from the time i started. and yes,

it is true that women go through so much in the industry. that is true, but i've been lucky enough that you know i've, i've been surrounded by people that actually really genuinely care about me. care about my wellness. and i would definitely suggest to any woman out there who wants to get into the industry to have that for themselves as email uh to then to support each other. is that actually something that you see happening is it's so it's so important. and as we empower each other and helping each other with, you know, the most smallest, smallest thing is it's helping should i say i will, uh, i will assist, is with the own crowns, and in raising it. and, you know, i feel like sisterhood is so important. personally, my, i, i've got a lot of sisters. so from that in itself i, i mean like that even with my, with my work with whoever i need, like it's, it's, it's very important because we,

we definitely have to tell each other how we're doing gorgeous and how much of queens we are. yeah. and then there's so many young women that mean who look up to you and who looked look at you as a role model. i mean, what advice would you want to keep them today? because some, most of them, once of getting to the entertainment industry as well as i don't know how to do it to how easy it is or how hybrid. oh, 1st the that's definitely hard it's. it's definitely hard, but i would definitely say to anybody out there and you don't, girl wants to step into this world. i think more than anything you need 1st, know what you want. you need to know what you want. you need to know who you are. and from there, i believe once again, like i said earlier, surrounding yourself with the, with, with the right people, you know, surround yourself with the right people. and i mean for me i'm, i'm so ritual i,

i pray hard, you know, i pray hard and i mean, god will always meet you halfway. you got to work. you got to work, you got to where to go to work and god will show up with that with that supernatural grace you. so before i let you go, i just want to, i want you to tell us about i'm up. yeah, no, i mean, is it something that you think will dominate over even also be i'm of the i know has done wonders. a lot of people never thought that, you know, if it's being still, the weight is right now cuz i started all the way from 2019. i mean i'm gonna be under generally is always been there, but for it to be become mainstream. it was back in 2019 and all but having to see what it's doing and what it's done and i still believe is going to do i it's yeah, it's still it's good. it's still going to travel. it's gonna, it's gonna do the most. yeah, thank you. so much for joining us. it's pretty clear by now that there's no

shortage of young africans doing incredible things to replace the communities. in d r campbell. if junior month venza studied low in germany, where he received his doctor, it now he teaches low in his whole country and has even set up his own funds. kind of union andre fizzy studied towards the management in germany and returned home to phones that fee a bell off. we cut and you know, did a cultural house which offers everything from hospitality to an ad gallery and the sale of no click products. just to mention, but a few and now the next person we are about to meet has lived abroad for 27 years. she's lived in many parts of the world, but i desire to be close to her family and have a better walk life balance. let her back hold 2 parts. one,

her name is a be in my check up. she was born in belgy and started in the u. k. and now run a locally source and sustainable crossing line caused my. but what sparked move back home? in 2019 i went through a personal experience that made me come to the decision that i wanted to move back home. and at that point have gone to the u. k. to complete my masters and i didn't look back. my name is being with g. my ticker. so being is essential name because i was born in belgium. my g is my domain name, and my father is from a place called but are alone. i am from but so i now i am the founder of matter. and model is a minimalist, sustainable kind of thing. line 1st, inputs on the central part of the brand, as i say, sustainability. so all of our fabrics are locally. so as we really put in

a lot of effort, making sure that we're using organic fabrics, cotton, cnn's that are so fond and, and mode in a, in a sustainable way. matter has probably been with a number of different individuals and companies given the fact that with coney online means that we've had to find interesting and different ways of, of getting to our customer. and um, one of our coolest partnerships for me today and has been with a gm that is a place on peoples museum in cape town. it's an award winning museum and we have the opportunity to shoot our spring summer collection last year at the museum and have worked have the opportunity to work with them in order to us so design uniforms for them. people always asked me,

you've lived in so many amazing cases. i would not come back to baton. they're far as you. but i, i say you should go and live in those places use. tell me you can decide for yourself, but there's just so many life benefits that come with being home. my whole family lives in for fun. and so being back home instead, i'm connected to them. i am able to attend readings. i'm able to be, this was a friday salazer, baby showers. i'm being back home. i don't take that for granted being away from your family, the full training, so i'm 7 years was a long time. does have accessibility to certain opportunities that i wouldn't be able to get when i'm a small fish in a big pond and that's kind of what is happening when i was living outside of the country. there's many more of which opportunities. yes, but you're, you're not going to be necessarily prior ties when you're not from the country.

the one thing that i found to be the most difficult aspect of moving back home was feeding. like when i'm in a taxi. i didn't have the confidence to direct instance, i know the way that i wanted to to speak. and so i actually asked a friend of mine to take me 1st and find out lessons. and i did one on one lessons with her and i did a year that's i really enjoyed it. my advice for anyone that's thinking about coming home is go for it. but make sure that you understand the realities of your country and what it means to be coming from may be a multi place space into the realities of being back home. and i think it's made it easy for me to be able to transition back to being home is that i was never disconnected. that is something that is also linked with not being nice being

a's of the i'm going to come home. i have tons of resources to build this big, massive enterprise that's going to change lives. that may not be it where whatever your ideas may be, just be open to the process, the fluid and enjoy it. be floyd and enjoy the process. and that's exactly what our next homecoming he would need. they'll tech kelly company is a family medicine specialist and has a particular interest in aesthetics and the color g. they'll put some pond is putting in australia, but after 11 years she realized that whole country, but it's one a didn't have enough family physicians. so what did she do? she popped up and returned to books one a to build a premium medical center. lets me talk when i left the quotes on what is new, i was going to come back. i saw like a soldier who was paid for training to go and change my themselves and come back.

so i told myself, i'm going out the, i'm going to quit myself with all the skills that i will possibly need in order to come back home and keep back to my people. my name is dr. kelly with a free teacher. i'm finding that multiple call me talk to kaylee some find a time instead of deals a plan now who's at family medicine specialist by profession. also have a special interest in aesthetics, inter metrology. so i put in a little bit of extra training in those in groups. one of the very, very few family medicine physicians in the private sector alone. the about 7 of us in a population of to me when i find a premier, a premium, it costs into my main aim was to bridge the gap from having a very strong primary care system in the country. after finishing

school id, the p made it costs that is that the universe symbols that are free and a half or we send i qualified and was a what it is scholarship degree is that the medicine at the university of one s in australia melvin. some of the challenges that phase to while living in australia was living away from family and it was hard getting that phone call every now and then the actual mother is on your siblings. one of them isn't well or the something going on at home and you feel fuck, can you feel like there's not much we can do at that particular time. one of the other challenges as well was adjusting to the education system there, which is very different from what i was used to growing up in portland. so that took a toll on my confidence for some time, you know, as a black, as being a blank person in a predominantly caucasian white society is um you will is i lucky heck to work 2

to 3 times this hot. when people see the 1st and they see the kind of your skin and already they dont associate black with excellence. so you only have to go an extra mile. the 1st person i told that i was coming back is my now husband. my family, especially my mother, was in much more excited than any baby because i had just been 11 years away from home. my advice for anyone in the medical field to the last to back to africa is a whole is um, you definitely need it. they as a huge shortage off health care professionals, in almost every country in africa. our people do need the services and the skill sets that one carries all never get enough of women making power

moves. and have you ever thought of how you can contribute to your countries or your continents successes? we asked a group of 77 percent as in the u. k. and gemini, about their plans over to you fi to and just, hey, you was wondering what your boss we can talk to see about that intentions of going back home and when they will be doing wednesday to that. well, here in the united kingdom, sterling, my name is like any coming to she and i'll be asking my friends just that's also for manager. and for me as a business analyst, i think going back to my country would help businesses make good business decisions on include our business performance. i'm putting in a want to be able to have power gone on to express my interest in the photos the i . hi, i'm from gardner and i believe up to my studies. my country will be able to benefit from my experience as a business analyst and help what small and medium company grew as a business. and none of these i tend to go back to my countries to improve my
