For Isuma, every of her troubles have turned into a blessing for her with time.

“The woman I am becoming is fearless, Immune to judgements and completely free to walk in her calling. She’s not perfect and doesn’t pretend to be. She is flawed, she is emotional, she expresses herself. She has the AUDACITY to be herself no matter what room she is in or stage she is on. She’s messy &genuine & someone I look forward to getting to know even better. I LOVE YOU Stephanie ❤️ Happy Birthday. Mentally ready for my next Chapter. The rose that grew from concrete. A Diamond in the rough. Through and through fire…. thankyou God for making me FireProof. For every ash, you have given me beauty, for every iota of sadness, gave me back double jars, overflowing with the oil of gladness. THIRTYWON with a grateful heart. Happy birthday AMB. Stephanie,” she captioned the photos she shared on her verified Instagram page.
