Ify A. Ngwudike loves to learn and she finds every experience a great teacher. She has been called a CEO (Chief Encouragement Officer) by friends because she always tries to see the positive in any situation. Her best friend in graduate school once told her she was the worst person to have a fight with because Ify can’t help telling her “enemy” what good came out of their “fight”. Ify loves to inspire hope in women because she believes in everyday successes and the power of the new, daily chances we get. Though there are struggles in life, joy comes in the morning (metaphorically) and she encourages women in her writing to be grateful, confident, and enlightened, recognizing they are gifts to humanity.

Ify currently resides in Canada with her husband and four children. She’s lived in three different countries so far and is looking forward to visiting many more as long as she doesn’t have to travel with the children. She currently works with adult learners on their personal and academic success and writes about empowerment, personal development, and financial literacy.
