Most known and unknown felling at the same time-L O V E
I’ve always known that I’ve had mental health issues. And I was frightened of getting close to people because I didn’t want to be a burden. I felt I was weak and I was needy and I needed pity. I can remember being terrified, absolutely terrified, of them turning round and saying ‘no, I don’t want to be your friend.’ But I have such a lovely network of people, and I love the bones of them. And I don’t think any of us have met and I think that’s incredibly powerful. It’s lovely that you can have such a strength of feeling towards somebody you haven’t actually met.

Back to Vocal
Hello there, Nice to meet you. My name is Nneka, a mom of one living in Windsor, Ontario. Growing up in a rural village in the east of Nigeria, my childhood was steeped in the rich tradition of storytelling. Unlike many kids who heard tales of Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Cinderella, I was immersed in the captivating narratives passed down through generations by my mother and grandparents. These stories were filled with social justice, a sprinkle of magic, and always a song with a chorus that invited everyone to join in. Sitting around a fire, swatting away mosquitoes, and listening intently to the wisdom embedded in these tales are some of my most cherished memories.
