MEET FATUM

"Your story is not just what happened to you—it’s what you choose to build from it. I help people turn pain into progress and purpose into power."

FatuM is a TEDx speaker and organizer, award-winning peacebuilder, and Forbes-featured storyteller who transforms adversity into bold leadership. From surviving the Liberian civil war to becoming the first girl in her family to attend college, she’s a trailblazer breaking barriers—now one of Canada’s first hijabi runway models, a podcaster, and a novelist.

With a Master’s in Technology Entrepreneurship & Innovation, a Bachelor’s in Peace and Conflict Resolution, and training from the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers (CAPS), FatuM blends storytelling, leadership coaching, and digital content to inspire clarity and confidence.

She curates TEDxArgyle St., serves on the Board of Speakers Nova Scotia, and hosts the Canadian International Peace Conference. Featured on CBC, CTV, and Empowering Humanity Magazine, FatuM brings cultural insight and fearless leadership to every stage—empowering others to reclaim their voice and lead with audacity.
