I Traded the American Dream for the African Dream. Now I'm Showing You How
In 2021, my family and I moved to Gambia — my husband, our 3 kids, and my mother. Since then, I've helped diaspora Africans buy land, start businesses, and build the life they thought was impossible.
This isn't theory. This is the playbook I'm living — and the one I'm sharing with Africans ready to come home, invest, and build.
You've Thought About It. But Then Reality Hits.
"What will it actually cost?"
"Can I really make money there?"
"What about schools for my kids?"
"Am I being naive?"
Every diaspora African who's considered coming home has these exact questions.
The difference between those who go and those who stay stuck in the dream? A plan.
I didn't have a roadmap when I made the move. I had to figure it out as I went the visa process, finding housing, setting up businesses, navigating healthcare, building community.
Now I'm giving you what I wish I'd had: a clear starting point.
Why Listen to Me?
Here's what I bring:
✅ Relocated to Gambia with my family (husband, 3 kids, and my mother) — I live this daily
✅ Helped diaspora Africans purchase land across the continent without getting scammed
✅ Built and manage a team of 7 in Nigeria for the past 5 years — I understand how business works here
✅ Consulted companies entering African markets — I know the opportunities and the pitfalls
✅ Coached 1,000+ entrepreneurs to build profitable online businesses over 7 years
Plus, over 10,000 people have watched our content breaking down the real opportunities in Africa. They're not just watching — they're planning.
I'm not selling you a fantasy. I'm sharing the blueprint I'm living — the good, the hard, and the honest truth.
Africa for Africans. Africa for Builders.
This is bigger than relocation. This is about who builds Africa's future.
Right now, there are two things happening on the continent:
1. Africans coming home to contribute — bringing skills, capital, ideas, and investment
2. Others coming to extract — taking from Africa without building it
I'm here for option 1.
Make Money in Africa is for diaspora Africans who refuse to watch from the sidelines. Who are tired of the narratives others write about us. Who know that if we don't build Africa, someone else will profit from it.
The African Dream is real:
Relocate. Retire. Invest. Employ. Build generational wealth on the continent that made you.
Nobody's coming to save us. So let's build it ourselves.

But Let's Keep It in Context.
Yes, there are scams in Africa. (There are scams in New York too.)
Yes, there are challenges. (There are challenges in London too.)
Yes, infrastructure isn't perfect everywhere. (Neither is LA.)
What I won't do is compare Africa to a fantasy version of the West that doesn't exist.
What I will do is give you the truth in context — so you can make informed decisions, not fearful ones.
Because when you strip away the double standards and the lazy narratives, you'll see what I see:
Africa is the best bet you'll ever make.
What Does the African Dream Look Like?
It looks different for everyone. And that's the point.
For some, it's:
Relocating full-time and building a business that employs 10, 50, 100 people
Retiring your mother in comfort and dignity on the continent
Buying land and real estate as long-term wealth-building
Trading your $5,000/month expenses for $2,500/month with better quality of life
For others, it's:
Using Africa as Plan B — diversifying investments and securing a future outside one system
Splitting time between continents — 6 months here, 6 months there
Starting remote businesses serving global clients from African cities
Giving your kids a connection to their heritage while building wealth
There's no one "right way" to build your African dream. But there is a right way to start: with information, not fear.
