Publisher Description
In What A Time To Be Alone,The Slumflower will be your life guru, confidante and best friend. She’ll show you that being alone is not just okay: it’s just about the best freaking thing that’s ever happened to you. As she says, ‘You’re bad as hell and you were made with intention.’ It’s about time you realised.
Peppered with insightful Igbo proverbs from Chidera’s Nigerian mother and full of her own original artwork, What A Time To Be Alone will help you navigate the modern world. We can all decide our own fates and Chidera shows us how, using a three-part approach filled with sass, wisdom and charm.
• Learn how to celebrate YOU – decide your self-worth, take time to heal and empower yourself in this messy world.
• Don’t worry about THEM – avoid other people’s demons and realise that everyone is protecting themselves from something – no matter how aggressive their method.
• Feel the togetherness in US – sustain and grow healthy relationships and avoid toxicity in your friendships.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Drake made #WATTBA a trending hashtag—but Chidera Eggerue turned it into a rallying cry for young women. The British writer and TED presenter writes about self-acceptance with the same humor and humanity that turned her blog, The Slumflower, into a worldwide sensation. Using proverbs drawn from her Igbo heritage, gentle motivational tips, and her own millennial wisdom, Eggerue uplifts and inspires. We love that her philosophy is founded on the idea that each of us is our own best champion.

MUST READ!
You absolutely will not regret it. If you're on a healing journey this book opens up your eyes, makes you take accountability and you also see people for what they really are. I took something from each page. The first five minutes had me in my feelings. I loved it so much I'm also ordering a physical copy.
