Engendering enthusiasm and providing confidence to all of us @strongeststory; we are so proud to introduce you to a remarkable young woman whose honest, heartfelt words need to be heard This is Nikki Kemp @nikki.kemp.35
“For many, many years of my life, I tried to portray a false persona as I hated the skin I was in and desperately wanted to just fit in.
Having being diagnosed with cerebral palsy at just 8 months old, I could never accept that I was different. It was only when I surrendered to the process and allowed God to show me how HE sees me that I was able to begin to walk in true acceptance.
I've always been fairly sporty and so in 2019 when I developed a newfound love of running, God was able to use that to enhance HIS bigger purpose for me.
This year I was blessed to be able to attend the Strongest Story Course hosted by two dynamic women Debs & Jacqs (and let me tell you it was eye-opening and a complete game-changer for me.) The warmth and enthusiasm that both Debs & Jacqs showed throughout the course was infectious and for me their content solidified what God had already began in my life, only I now knew that my newfound passion for running had a purpose.
I am a firm believer in giving back and using your passion to make a difference in the lives of others … so I try and use my running to do just that! By creating awareness of the importance of inclusion and raising funds for a charity that I am actively involved in and one that is very close to my heart, The Chaeli Campaign and their sister NGO whom I run for, The Chaeli Sports and Recreation Club.
My aim is to inspire others to take ownership of their true God-given purpose and pursue what truly makes them happy!”
