Micheline Ntiru

I’ve spent much of my life moving between countries, cultures, and communities. Each transition taught me something about identity, belonging, and what it takes to stay grounded when everything around you changes.

‍

My work has taken me across Africa, Europe, Latin America, and the United States, supporting organisations and individuals working in complex, high-pressure environments. As a Black woman navigating systems that haven’t always been designed with inclusion in mind, I’ve learned the importance of self-awareness, inner steadiness, and values-led leadership.

‍

At the heart of my work is a belief that understanding yourself changes how you show up in the world. I’m deeply passionate about supporting people, especially women, to reconnect with their voice, their confidence, and their sense of agency. I care about growth that is thoughtful, grounded, and deeply human.

‍

I’m based in Nairobi and am committed to uplifting African-led initiatives and women-led businesses, while working with people around the world who are navigating change, complexity, and transition.
