POWER DOESN’T ALWAYS SHOUT

By Grace Oluomachukwu Ogbuehi.

“Power Doesn’t Always Shout” tells the story of Ramat Abdullahi-Ifeanyi, founder of Heelsrun Magazine, and her journey from repeatedly starting and stopping to finally building the vision she had carried since 2017.

She reflects on how fear, perfectionism, and waiting for the “right time” held her back. Eventually, she chose progress over perfection and committed to building the magazine.

Overall: It is a story about courage, persistence, overcoming fear, and taking action before everything is perfect—encouraging women to step forward and create the spaces they envision.
