Amb Dr. Cecilia W. Yu Keynote for the 7th Conference on the Status of African Women (CSAW) at the University of Nairobi, Kenya

6am in the morning Keynotes in hashtag#Kenya for 7th Conference on the Status of Africa Women (CSAW) at the University of Nairobi. I had to pre-record it because I lost my voice 😫 after the weekend spent with way too many cameras pointed at me. I have a cold and no matter how many remedies were suggested to me to speed up my recovery in the last 24hrs. It didn’t work….lol.

*** THANK YOU, Academic sibling in Oz, MIT dude, Kenyan Profs, Jewish Aunty in Berkeley for all your detailed recipes for curing this hazard…it all involves honey and/or hot brandy/coke/cider/herbal tea etc… Apparently this is quite a common affliction for those who lecture in Academia! 🤣 …my Mom and Aunties had that as H.E teachers too. That’s why I never intended to teach, so I could avoid getting endless sore throat! YET here I am doing a keynote anyway! My voice is sooo very raspy! 😫 Oh well…I need to sleep off the cold. 😇💛 I feel dizzy and faint. lol. Better focus on hashtag#wellbeing!
