Sade says:

You are created for a purpose, you must always remember that. Jer.1:5 shows this. It is pivotal in your carrying on in life or winning the battles of life. The ultimate is not to give up on the race of life because you are not just a number on a card, or just a statistic, but you are created by the Creator for a purpose and for such a time as this. Then learn to ‘squeeze’ out the best out of life for the benefit of humanity. You are endowed with the seeds of greatness therefore be all that you can be and be passionate about what you do. If it’s your call, give it your best shot!

Everyday Life:

Sade has a thriving and aspiring career in healthcare. Enjoys outings with family and friends to ‘laugh and play’, going to the movies, eating, watching football. Basically letting her hair down and having fun.

Entertainment:

Sade enjoys: loves music and enjoys watching football. (I’ll keep you guessing on the football team I support.)

Other Intersts:

Huh, I love ‘healthy’ eating. But with chocolate, you yield sometimes…. I love Snickers, Christian books, autobiographies, and other books that will provoke and challenge your thinking i.e. on leadership, relationships, women, career etc. Fashion – it’s got to be trendy at all times and the hair must be in place.
