Emily is a true warrior woman and a shining example of the power of a company from seemingly impossilble challenges to achieve great things through resilience, resourcefulness and unwavering faith in herself and her creator.

Exactly what the world needs more of right now.

I’ve walked some of this story and been constantly amazed at Emily’s achievements and her future vision.

As an honorary family member, I have seen her response to difficulties prove that the only thing capable of turning a piece of coal into a diamond is pressure.

We celebrate this book because it reminds us of how small steps in the right direction can lead to bigger and better things in life. Arise, Emily, and continue to shine so that little girl, sister and daughter can see the possibilities and the reward of pushing on, even when the road is tough!!

EDU & CHEMU KIRUI

Emily has confronted difficult times in disability and pain with grace and strength.

Emily’s narrative will bring you hope and a promise of a good future.

BISHOP & MRS TANUI

I have had the privilege of walking alongside Emily as she shared with you her remarkable life. I have laughed and cried, celebrated and groaned, been challenged and inspired. May you also be impacted by her faith and encouraged to believe as you read Emily’s journey.

LAUREEN NEWSHAM

Emily Korir is the quintessential woman of faith, hard work, resilience and go-getter. To Emily, failure is not the opposite of success but part of the process for success. She is also a dreamer.

Sometimes her dreams don’t make sense to us until they come to fruition but her friends’ lack of comprehension or support of her dreams has never stopped her from pursuing them.
