Call Me Abby Profile 2.JPG

The name is Abiola Omolara Ogunbekun

…but you can call me Abby.

The inspiration for my site’s name came from how I simplified my name for the majority of my life so far. For most of my childhood, teens, and even my twenties, my name was a source of anxiety. Anxiously waiting for people to mispronounce it, anxious at the thought of explaining its Yoruba origins. Because it pointed out one more way that I was different, made me stand out.

It took a while, and a lot of growing into my confidence to finally understand that being different is actually a wonderful thing. And now, I love my name in all the ways.

Writing. Yoga Teaching. Traveling.

A yoga teacher and writer living in the South, this is me, sharing what I have to offer. Everything from hair care to baking recipes, from yoga asanas to mental destress techniques, this is where it’s at.

All in all, sharing experience and life my way- as authentically and genuinely as I can. Usually with a smile, because I’ve got one on my face more often than not.
