We Live These Lives, published by The Female Professionals’ Book Club, and edited by Ezinne Ibe and Ngozi Onyesom, captures the thought-provoking stories of 20 African professional women making waves in their different professions. “We Live These Lives” contains stories of women who chose to dream, dare and challenge the status quo. Some important values which women should imbibe include; discipline, hard work, resilience, team spirit and a never give up attitude. Women supporting Women groups like The Female Professionals’ Book Club have immense benefits unlike the “egbe ki l’oko o se” ( selfish, self-centred female groups with no regard for societal norms) kind of groups which are of no significant impact on one’s journey of discovery. “We Live These Lives” is a book which I would describe as timeless and is therefore recommended to everyone, not only the women folk.
