I am Patricia Njeri, a community mobiliser, speaker, and advocate passionate about creating safe spaces and second chances for teenage mothers and vulnerable girls. I founded Birth and Beyond as a response to a gap I felt deeply — the need for dignity, skills, and support systems for young women navigating early motherhood. With a background in grassroots engagement, public speaking, and program design, I focus on building bridges between communities and opportunity. I believe in impact that starts small but runs deep — and I am committed to work that restores hope, unlocks potential, and shifts narratives. Every day, I show up for the girl who feels unseen. That is my why. That is my work.
