How Hair Inspired Ama Karikari-Yawson's Entrepreneurial Journey

Ama Karikari-Yawson was working as a highly successful senior counsel at a major bank. Then, one day, something happened. A seemingly small-but-hurtful incident made a deep impact on Ama. A barber referred to one of Ama's son as the n-word because of his kinky hair. Ama not only felt bad, but she knew deep inside she had to do something about it. In her words, "After the incident, I was inspired to write my first children's book, Sunne's Gift: How Sunne Overcame Bullying to Reclaim God's Gift." Per Ama, her book addresses self-love, respect for all, and, yes, hair included.
