Healing and Empowerment: Building A Legacy of Family Wealth
My Vision
As Celestial Point continues to experience exponential growth my mission for our family is to create security and sustainability for us all. Celestial Point focuses on restoring life systems in places around the world impacted by disasters and crises by building back better communities and economies through the integration of ecological principles, social equity, and innovative design solutions. I am to empower the leaders of our family by prioritizing the 8-dimensions of wellness in our program Harmonic Executives. As our family continues to heal, reconnecting after tragedy and hardship, we extend our network though meaningful partnerships with our family members. For our leadership umbrella I establish our family values: wealth, intelligence, empowerment, unity, child-rearing, and heritage. As family leaders, we are responsible for the wellness and success of our children, and providing justice for those children in our family who grew up without leaders like those from Celestial Point Inc. Like the weavers before us, we are also responsible for creating a tapestry of safety, resources, and guidance for our children into adult age. Just as our family's traditional medicine healers and leaders of kinship system intertwined vibrant threads to form beautiful patterns, we must carefully interlace support and wisdom into the fabric of families lives, ensuring they are well-prepared to face the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. We must also strive to restore and preserve the traditional knowledge of our ancestors and the land.

FutureHERS
Empowering Self-Efficacy
Girls, with their resilience and strength, can thrive independently in society with gender equality support. As vital members of their communities, their journeys are built on the experiences of women who overcame obstacles in pursuit of education and fulfillment. Empowered by gender equality initiatives, girls can break barriers, challenge stereotypes, and drive positive change for future generations. With the right resources, they can become leaders and advocates for a more inclusive world.
Young girls in Nigeria face significant disadvantages, with the country ranking 139 out of 156 in the World Economic Forum’s Gender Gap Index. This indicates severe gender inequality, limiting their access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities. The low ranking underscores the urgent need for efforts to address the barriers young girls face and create a more equitable society.
Gender inequality in Nigeria severely threatens the human rights of young girls and the nation's social and economic fabric. Its repercussions are widespread, affecting child health, increasing rates of sexual assault and gender-based violence, and contributing to lower education and employment rates, leading to heightened poverty. Addressing this urgent issue is vital for the future of young girls, as highlighted by initiatives like FutureHERS. Children continue to grow while waiting for justice and equality, emphasizing the need for swift action. As an organization, we are committed to proactively preventing gender inequality for this vulnerable population.
In the global cycle of oppressing women, young girls face severe impacts from gender inequality and systemic oppression. This oppression echoes through generations, limiting these girls' potential to thrive and contribute to their communities. The ongoing injustice not only affects their immediate well-being but also disrupts the broader social fabric, hindering progress and perpetuating inequality. By investing in young girls in Nigeria, we can begin to reverse the negative effects of gender inequality and empower them to realize their potential. It's time to recognize the crucial role young girls and women play in society and our shared responsibility to help maximize their potential for success.
