Book description
her voice cuts through the static first. not the kind of static you hear in a noisy room but the quiet static of a life lived fully. nigeria heat. zimbabwe dust. silicon valley glare. all just... there. in your ear. like she's leaning close whispering secrets over a cup of tea you can almost smell.
i didn't expect to feel the weight of her boarding school rules. the way her voice tightens when she talks about being the only girl in the lab. or how she laughs now about the time she tried to code a prayer into a program. yeah. she did that.
and the faith. not some distant thing. woven right into the fabric of her work. like when she says "the algorithm had a flaw. god's timing had none." you hear it. you feel it. not preachy. just real. raw. like she's showing you her hands covered in circuit board grease and still holding a rosary.
the setbacks. oh the setbacks. the ones that sound like they'd break anyone else. she doesn't call them failures. she calls them "stepping stones i hadn't seen." and you hear the quiet strength in that. not a shout. a deep breath. a reset.
and the mentors. the ones who saw her before she saw herself. their voices echo softly in the background of the audiobook. like old friends you never met but feel like you know.
this isn't just a tech memoir. it's a map. for anyone standing at that confusing crossroads. the one where your passion feels too big for your path. or your path feels too small for your passion. she doesn't give easy answers. she just makes you feel less alone in the asking.
the best part? the vulnerability. when she talks about failing a big project. or doubting her place in a room full of men. her voice doesn't waver. it just... holds. like she's saying "this is messy. this is okay." and you realize. you're not supposed to have it all figured out. you just need to keep moving.
you'll hear the coffee cup clink when she's in a late-night lab. the sound of a bus in harare. the quiet hum of a server room. all these tiny sounds that make it feel alive. real. not like a book you read. but a conversation you're having right now.
if you've ever felt like your story doesn't fit neatly into one box. if you've ever wondered how to hold your faith and your ambition without choosing one. this is your companion. not a lecture. just a voice saying "i've been there. the path is messy. but you're already walking it."
press play. don't think. just listen. and feel your own path shift a little. just like hers did.
