Hello,
My name is Marjorie Boafo Appiah aka Marjy Marj and I make the meanest jollof rice. I am a wife, mama, daughter, sister, friend, and cheerleader for most humans. Host to the globally ranked Humanity Chats podcast with listeners in 1,100+ cities, I am a vanilla ice cream fan who loves to dance to Afrobeats.
An author of 16 books that have achieved multiple #1 bestseller rankings, my writings span friendship, leadership, culture, social issues, adventure, and self-help. A portion of my book sales have supported 20+ nonprofits.
I also help businesses and nonprofits turn ideas into impact as a management consultant and Corporate Social Responsibility strategist at Innovation Abound.
Community is my heartbeat. I’ve served on multiple nonprofit boards, champion literacy through Giving Book Day (25,000+ books distributed), and cheer on young leaders through Ball4Good, where our mentees have earned $8M+ in scholarships and launched projects that change lives.
If you’re here for strategy, storytelling, or a spark of hope, you’re in the right place.
Let’s build something that matters.
