"I desire and prefer to do things on my own and I believe every woman must try to do same." - Abigail Dwomoh Nyarko Abigail Dowmoh Nyarko is a social entrepreneur, secretary and human rights advocate. She is the CEO of Biggles Impact Foundation and the Ashanti Region Ambassador for Youth for Human Rights Africa. She is also into volunteering, writing and modeling. If there are two things Abigail is know for, it is her passion for volunteering (effortless to better a life or situation) and her willingness to never give up even when she fails. She believes that "when you fail, your failure must be a strength to others but not a weakness". Being responsible for your own needs, extending help to others and embracing failure as a strength, not weakness; isn't this awesome? Abigail is my damsel on fire for this episode. Be on fire!

"I believe in helping your  fellow to get there and she will pull you up there too." - Naa Anyeley Sowah Naa Anyeley Sowah, also known as Meredith, is a model, dancer, MC and a volunteer. Meredith believes that, as damsels, we are supposed not just to love each other but as well believe in and support each other. She is aware of the fact that we all have flaws but she is also aware that no matter what, "love, believe in and support for" should not be a lack in our lives. As a damsel who is still pursuing her dreams in life, she is bold to be who she is and do what she wants to do. She is also ever ready to accept challenges that brings the beat out of her, try new things, and support initiatives that impact lives. Being your true self despite what others say, believing in and supporting other ladies, and trying new things as a way of pursing your dreams, is she not on fire? Meredith is our damsel on fire for today. Be on fire!!!

"Sacrifice, work hard, focus, learn, be nice; it does magic." - Edem Roberta Abbeyquaye Edem Roberta Abbeyquaye is a multimedia journalist, photographer and a volunteer. She is also a human rights advocate, speaker, content producer, and heyye, she's on a mission to be build a tompire (lol) Edem believes that " fulfillment comes in doing things you love " and so she is addicted to learning new things (including skills), showing love and support to those who need it, pursuing her dreams and doing whatever she finds herself doing well (working hard). As a damsel, Edem is so much on fire and just by meeting her, I tell you, you will be empowered to be on fire too. She is my damsel on fire for today. Want to know how to be on fire?

"If I could be my dream woman: I would be an example and a source of inspiration to all the young people around me; always willing to teach, mentor and encourage. My dream woman knows that she's far from perfect but at the same time she is a leader in her field and is able to inspire and influence." - Auguster Asantewa Boateng Auguster Asantewaa Boateng is a broadcast journalist, human rights advocate, social entrepreneur, sanitation reporter, mentor and life coach. She is the founder and convener of The Butterfly Effect, 2017 Pro-Volunteer youth leader of the month August, mentor to participants of Face of GirlEmpowered, and she is very passionate about sustainable development. If Auguster is not on fire, what is she on? This is what being on fire is all about; daring to empower others to assess their rights, caring for the needy and being who you dream of becoming. Auguster is my damsel on fire for today. Be on fire!

"Being different isn't bad. It means you are bold enough to be yourself." - Fella Makafui Fella Makafui is a damsel who seems to know what the game is about; she has discovered herself, her purpose and the kind of world she feels comfortable in, and she's on a mission to create who she yearns to be. Fella is an actress, brand ambassador, entrepreneur and a philanthropist. She acknowledges the fact that "our generation gives up way too fast and way too easy" and she's determined to be the unique. She is living and pursuing her dreams;  making things happen, establishing businesses, impacting into lives, giving back to society and presenting herself in a way that gets everyone talking, yet pays no attention to what the talk is about. Isn't this what being on fire is all about? Breaking limitations, daring to be different and living the life you dream of despite the negativities and pressure from the world. Fella is a damsel on fire; my damsel on fi...
