When a teenager, Dr. Ncube made an oath to her dying mother that she would succeed in life and become a doctor. She has fulfilled her promise and tells us about it in this touching talk.
Dr. Thabo is an MD, motivational speaker and a millennial mentor. Having overcome her own personal and professional obstacles, her powerful story encourages this generation to face their challenges and conquer them. Dr. Thabo envisions a world where all women are given the opportunity to become the ultimate best versions of themselves, not only to dream bigger dreams, but to create and shape the world they have always desired. Having lost her mother at the age of 14 years old, at her mother's death bed, she made a promise to her to be a doctor. Her journey leading to the fulfillment of the promise has been one filled with loss, pain, failures, mistakes, resilience, courage, faith, hope, grace and overcoming adversity. She is now on a mission to empower, to educate, to encourage, to motivate, to uplift and to inspire this generation to use pain as a pedestal toward living a life of purpose.
