About

Kabasigyi @ 35 🍃🇺🇬🇷🇼🇨🇦

Kabasigyi is a multidisciplinary African-Canadian creative, speaker, and storyteller—living at the intersection of survival, truth-telling as an introvert, and reinvention. At 35, she brings raw lessons from a decade of navigating mental health struggles, financial missteps, cultural expectations, and the weight of always showing up for others—from sisters, to parents, to extended relatives, and peers.

Then, in August 2026, something shifted in our family story. My first Italian niece was born. Until that moment, all of our paternal nieces and nephews had been 100% Black. West African or Caribbean mixes.

This blog, this work, and this vision are for her—the one who gave me an even deeper reason to carry this work forward with renewed purpose.

Her father never had the chance to meet our Grandpa Ezra Mulera, the man whose survival made our DNA possible. Grandpa Ezra passed away in November 2019 at over 100 years old. This work is part of carrying that legacy forward—for the generations that came before us, and the ones arriving now.

Through her blog Heal Grow Glow, she invites Gen Z and Millennials into honest conversations about re-purposing pain into purpose. From surviving depression, to signing a consumer proposal, from living in a shelter, to ancestral soul-searching in Uganda—her journey is not polished, but it’s powerfully relatable.

She’s also known for addressing taboo topics and uncomfortable truths—subjects that can spark conflict or disconnection, but speaking up for herself and others, is essential to her voice, her healing, and her art.

Her mission? To reclaim and help other millennial and Gen Zs reclaim their voice, build community, and share what success, love, and legacy look like—on our own terms.

This is for the ones still figuring it out, still healing, still rising.
