IncluNorm by Misty Glam Company

WE ARE NOW LIVE. Disability is news. The policies being made. The barriers people navigate. The technology creating new possibilities. The research shaping what we know. The people challenging stereotypes. The communities creating change. The stories that deserve to be heard.

You see that thing about how the same ideas drop into everyone’s heads almost at the same time? No be lie. 😅 We haven’t fully launched @inclunorm because I’ve been overthinking how we’d execute the accessibility integration layer that can make any website/app/product usable by a blind user, someone with motor impairments, someone with ADHD, someone sensitive to motion, etc. While I was overthinking, another Nigerian-owned company has launched the same idea as a service last month. Can’t even feel any type of way about it. I’m just glad the idea now exists.

A moving woman has finally met her fully funded Master’s scholarship at the number one school in the world for Development Studies. 😎 After dedicating October/November 2025 to February 2026 to applying for opportunities, I tried to prepare my mind for anything. Then the rejections started coming in, and I think they got to me a bit. I mean, I’m a Cannes Lions-winning copywriter. I contributed to Nigeria and West Africa’s first-ever win at the most prestigious international festival of creativity. I’ve executed award-winning marketing communications and advertising campaigns, won pitches for local and international brands, consulted for startups on brand and communications strategy, led creative teams at some of the leading advertising agencies in Africa, led the communications team at Africa’s leading civic tech organization, mentored over 50 copywriters through my creative agency, founded a disability-inclusive creative talent management and advocacy company, led the team that created Nigeria’s first Albinism Advocacy Pageant, published the first-ever dictionary of disability-inclusive language, co-founded an adaptive clothing line for people with disabilities, started a disability-focused media company, and built a gamified disability education tech product over the last ten years of my professional career. Surely I could pitch myself well enough to win a scholarship? 😭 I was the person people came to when they needed to sharpen a pitch or proposal, review an application, or prepare for an interview. Turns out, I was about to be humbled. I started wondering if it was my 4.45 GPA. Or the nine-year gap since my BSc. Maybe I had waited too long. Maybe I was no longer the kind of candidate these opportunities were looking for. Maybe I even needed to scale my work or publish more research. When I made the post below, I had stopped expecting anything else. But God, and His perfect humbling twists, started sending the YES-es. Every time I thought I had received my best offer, another one would come. I’ve achieved a lot of things in my life, but you see this particular win? I still can’t find the words. Just pure gratitude in my heart. God really did His big one. He truly, truly crowned all my hard work and sleepless nights with Sussex. 😉 I’m officially a Commonwealth Scholar, you guys!! 🥳🥳 - UC Berkeley Mastercard Foundation Scholarship ❌ - University of Oxford Mastercard Foundation Scholarship ❌ - Oxford OCIS ❌ - Oxford Ertegun ❌ - Oxford Clarendon ❌ - Oxford Weidenfeld Hoffmann ❌ - Chevening Scholarship ❌ - University of Cambridge Mastercard Foundation Scholarship ❌ - Gates Cambridge Scholarship ❌ - Edinburgh Mastercard Foundation Scholarship ❌ - Commonwealth Shared Scholarship University of Aberdeen ❌ - Commonwealth Shared Scholarship SOAS ❌ - Erasmus Mundus MAPP ❌ - Erasmus EMMIE ❌ - Erasmus GLOCAL ❌ - Erasmus MAGMa ❌ - Erasmus FLOURISH ❌ - University of Bristol Think Big Scholarship ❌ - ERASMUS GLOBED ❌ - ERASMUS NOHA ❌ - Dalai Lama Fellowship ❌ - Big Bets Fellowship ❌ - The Obama Foundation Leaders Africa Program ❌ - One Future 2026 Scholarship ❌ - Jodi Harris Scholarship ❌ - See It Be It Cannes Lion Fellowship ❌ - University of Nottingham Developing Solutions Masters Scholarship ❌ - IAFFE Feminist Economics School Fellowship ❌ - CIPS Youth Future Summit 2026 Scholarship ❌ - Swedish Institute Scholarships for Global Professionals (SISGP) ❌ - MTN Media Innovation Programme ❌ Youth Empowerment Forum ❌ - Lund University Global Scholarship ❌ - Erasmus CLMCE- Scholarship reserved list ⚠️ - Erasmus MARIHE - Admitted, tuition free offer 💎 - NTU High Achievers Award/ Fee Reduction/ Other Partial Scholarships in 3 schools ✅ - University of Manchester Global Futures Scholarship ✅ - COMMONWEALTH SHARED SCHOLARSHIP, INSTITUTE OF DEVELOPMENT STUDIES, UNIVERSITY OF SUSSEX ✅ Thank you God for counting me worthy!! 🤲🏽

“Wheelchair user” or “wheelchair-bound”? 👀 We’re still at Osun State University, taking the IncluNorm Inclusion Quiz beyond the screen and into real conversations. This time, we asked students a simple question: which phrase is generally the most respectful? #IncluNorm
