A novel by Olayinka Oyetunji
I Kept Going
A Story of Grit, Grace, and Growth
Inspired by lived experiences: one woman's journey from a devastating fire to the C-suite, and the choice she made every time life asked her to stop.
Some stories begin with a dream. Others begin with a wound.
Enitan learns early that life rarely follows a straight line. Then, one ordinary day, everything changes. A devastating fire leaves her fighting for her life and struggling to recognise the girl staring back at her. The scars are visible, but the deepest wounds are not.
The fire proves to be only the beginning. In the working world she meets closed doors, demanding responsibilities and career disappointments that could easily have broken her. Just when she understands the rules of one game, life changes the game.
As she rises into rooms she once could only imagine entering, her definition of success changes. She learns to lead, to mentor and to use her voice, and her scars become a source of strength for others still fighting their own battles.
She was knocked down. She fell. She was hurt. She was tested. She was changed. She refused to stop. And somehow, she kept going.
