I have worked as a stay-at-home parent for 16 years, and I'm 46. After years of wanting more, I decided to move into cybersecurity, and I have completed an online certificate.
What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my interview answers, a realistic view of the job market in Kano, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming.
I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for four months, plus the occasional email question. I'll bring specific questions and I won't waste your time.
All I can offer back is my thanks, and I'll mentor someone else once I'm settled.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Stay strong, Chiamaka. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Wudil.
Rooting for you, Chiamaka. Small businesses are the heart of Wudil. Hope you're open again soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
