Yonela Resi’s Bio

I’m a 24 year old mother of two angel babies and I am trying to find a new normal after the death of both my babies, my first I lost to miscarriage at 16 weeks and my second to stillbirth at 38 weeks. My journey through motherhood has not been easy both children I have carried have both died, never taken a breath. Through my loss I have realised my destiny and the path I am to walk. Now I am bringing awareness to the black community on baby loss through a series of baby loss talks organised by my foundation, the Lakhanya Foundation. I have also put my story through motherhood in my new book which is aimed at empowering the black woman to tell her story
