I built a $70m business while battling depression – Nekeya Parks at TrueLife Experience
Mindset mentor Nekeya Parks has revealed that she built a $70 million business while battling depression, urging people to identify and pursue what she described as their God-given purpose. Speaking at the 2026 TrueLife Experience at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra, she challenged participants to reflect on the ambitions they had before societal expectations and personal fears influenced their choices. "When you think about the dream that you had when you were smaller, when you were younger, before the world got its hands on you, before all the reasons why it felt too big landed, what was your original dream?" she asked. Ms Parks said many people were raised to pursue conventional career paths such as engineering, medicine and law because they were considered secure and financially rewarding.
