Creativity for Personal and Social Transformation

We are promises unfolding
Journeying from unraveling
to enlightening
to revealing” …

Welcome to the Firestarter Collective – where poetry meets purpose, transformational strategy excavates possibilities, and compassionate action creates lasting change.
Hi, My name is Shola Amaraibi
All my life I’ve been passionately in love with language, deeply introspective, always seeking to understand more, to guide people to feel more and become more.
I was told as a child I asked questions like “why are we here? What is the meaning behind this and that? How else can this be said? Why is the sky blue? seriously!
The Prophetic Poet
“Poetry itself demands ‘life’ of me. Every intersection would lead me right to it if I were to ignore the pull. It’s a spiritual tugging that demands I give, give of the thoughts that flow in my veins, feeling my path through life in verses”… Shola AMARAIBI
