#60 | Senneh Kamara | "Courage in motion!"

#60 Courage in motion!

Fascinating deep dive with Senneh Kamara, a young man whose life changed overnight and who chose courage instead of collapse. Born in Sierra Leone and now living in the Netherlands, Senneh lost his hand in a severe car accident at a young age. What followed was shock, grief, isolation and a long road of physical and emotional recovery. 

Rather than hiding, he learned to speak up, to be seen and to rebuild confidence on his own terms. Today he is stepping into education, community and voice, not defined by what he lost but by what he is becoming. His story is raw, honest and quietly powerful. 

Deep dive talking points:

👉🏾 sudden trauma: losing a hand and waking up to a new reality;

👉🏾 courage and self belief: choosing to move forward;

👉🏾 visibility and identity: when to speak and when not to;

👉🏾 solitude and healing: learning to stand on your own;

👉🏾 purpose ahead: education, medicine and impact;

Nuggets of empowerment:

🙌🏾 courage starts with believing yourself;

🙌🏾 solitude can be a teacher, not an enemy;

🙌🏾 you earn your own crown;

Senneh’s empowering quote:

🙌🏾 “Nobody gives you the crown. You give it to yourself”

Closing reflection:

Where in your life are you waiting for permission that you could give yourself today?
