Adelle who also owns her own organization called The Adelle Onyango Initiative that creates programs that help equip African youth with skills needed for the job & business markets talked about how she had tried to fit in in her professional career for years without succeeding.
“I spent such a long time trying to fit in! Especially in my professional career.” Adelle Onyango said in part on her social media page.

Adelle Onyango began to know that the radio environment wasn’t meant for her at all after having tried multiple times to force herself to fit in but it didn’t work because she ended up being very uncomfortable, she needed a breather.
“As I started regaining my consciousness it became clear that space wasn’t for me. I tried to force myself to fit but that just ended up being so UNCOMFORTABLE!” she explained.
At the end of the day, Adelle Onyango is happy and glad to have created a comfortable space for herself where she can express herself doing something that she loves in the process.
Adelle is team being you and appreciating self, she’ll probably forever be and that’s why the thriving African woman wants everybody to be themselves completely regardless of what other people will say because like they always say; people will always talk regardless of every and any moves you make in life.
“I am so [expletive] glad I decided to create a space for myself to do what comes so naturally to me – BE and allowing others to BE too.
I really am a thriving African woman because I legit took a chance on myself and came back home to me.” she continued.
