March always carries a unique energy. As the world turns its focus toward Women’s Month, my calendar fills with performances at various women-centric events—a whirlwind of activity that I find deeply soul-stirring. There is something transformative about these spaces; they offer a rare opportunity to absorb wisdom from women who have made significant strides in their respective fields, carving out paths where none existed before.

While every gathering this month has been impactful, the Inspire Summit held a particularly special resonance for me. Themed, ‘Finding your voice’,  It provided a platform where I was privileged to not only perform but to speak openly about the intersection of my creativity and my faith—a personal dialogue I seldom get to share in a public forum.

The day was a masterclass in growth and perspective. I found myself deeply moved by Nomndeni Sethole’s keynote, gaining fresh insights from her journey. I was captivated by Sheree Shereni’s breakdown of the “zebra dazzle,” and found profound value in navigating the delicate process of “reparenting” with Pamela Chinhoyi.

Finding your voice isn’t a solo mission; it’s a mosaic built from the stories we hear and the truths we dare to tell. In the spirit of that discovery, I wanted to share my reflections from our recent conversation. My hope is that these responses serve as a compass for you on your own journey, helping you tune out the noise and finally find your voice.

1. What inspired you to pick up the guitar, and how has it helped you “find your voice”?

For me, picking up the guitar was more than learning an instrument—it was discovering a language for things I sometimes struggled to say out loud. Music has a way of reaching places that ordinary conversation cannot.

As I grew in my faith and creativity, I began to understand that my voice—whether through music or words—comes from being attentive to God’s voice. The guitar became a tool for expressing what God was doing in my heart, and in that process, I found the confidence to speak and create authentically.

I am so fascinated about music that I often wonder where its coming from. Quincy Jones puts it so well; ‘The birds do not imitate the flute; it’s the reverse. And thunder didn’t imitate the drums. The elements of nature are a powerful source. Just like a melody. You can study orchestration, harmony and theory and everything else, but melodies come straight from God.

Over time, I realized that finding my musical voice was also connected to listening for a deeper voice. In John 10:27 Jesus says, “My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.”

2. Music has long been a powerful form of expression. In your experience, how can it become a tool for empowerment—particularly for women who may still be searching for their voice?

Music is powerful because it reminds us that our stories matter. When someone hears a song and thinks, “That’s exactly how I feel,” something shifts—they feel seen and validated.

I also believe music reflects something deeper about creation itself. In Psalm 19:1, we are told that the heavens declare the glory of God. Creation itself is constantly expressing something about its Creator.

In the same way, women have unique stories, experiences, and perspectives that deserve to be expressed. Music can become a safe and powerful space where women begin to explore their identity, process their experiences, and ultimately discover that their voice has value and impact.

3. Many women experience moments of self-doubt or imposter syndrome. Have you ever faced that in your own journey, and how did you push through it to confidently own your voice?

Absolutely. I think almost everyone who steps into a creative space faces moments of wondering whether they are enough or whether they belong.

What helped me was remembering that my voice doesn’t have to sound like anyone else’s to be meaningful. The beauty of creativity is that authenticity resonates more deeply than perfection.

Faith also grounded me in those moments. When you realize that the same God who created the world is guiding your steps, it changes how you view your limitations. Romans 1:20 reminds us that creation reflects God’s power. If God can create something as vast as the universe, He can certainly help us step into the purpose He has placed within us.

So instead of focusing on comparison, I learned to focus on faithfulness—to the gift, the calling, and the journey.

4. The music industry can often be male-dominated. What advice would you give to women looking to pursue their passion for music?

My advice would be to pursue excellence in your craft while remaining grounded in who you are. Talent opens doors, but authenticity sustains your journey. It’s also important to build community and support other women. When women collaborate instead of competing, the entire creative ecosystem becomes stronger.

And finally, don’t underestimate the power of your perspective. The world doesn’t need more copies—it needs more honest voices. Your story, your style, and your experiences bring something valuable to the table.

5. What message do you hope attendees take away from your performance at Inspire Summit, and how can they apply it to their own lives?

My hope is that people leave realizing that their voice matters. Just as creation reflects the glory of God, our lives are also meant to reflect something meaningful and beautiful. Whether that expression comes through music, leadership, business, art, or everyday acts of courage, each of us has been given something unique to contribute.

I hope attendees walk away encouraged to listen—to the things stirring in their hearts, to the opportunities around them, and ultimately to God’s guidance. Because when we begin to recognize His voice, we find the courage to use our own.

And sometimes finding your voice isn’t about becoming louder—it’s about becoming more authentic, more courageous, and more aligned with who you were created to be.
