She started writing to a diary after losing her dad at age 11 — and turned that private grief into a published book now used in every secondary school across Delta State, Nigeria. 📚 #influencerstories #podcastinterview #HumanStoryArchitect

This episode of Influencer Stories Hub features Sandra Chisom Asimobi — also known as Inkfluencer_Som — sharing her extraordinary journey in storytelling, self-publishing, and building a brand around written words that make people feel.

Sandra is a Nigerian-based author, human story architect, and storytelling coach who turned childhood heartbreak into a career built on the power of the written word. After losing her father at just 11 years old, she poured her emotions into a diary — and that habit became her superpower. She published her first book on credit while still in secondary school, with no audience, no marketing plan, and no money. Today, her book is part of the official curriculum across secondary schools in Delta State. In this conversation, she opens up about beating imposter syndrome, the art of writing for your audience instead of yourself, and why she calls herself a 'Human Story Architect.'

What You'll Learn:
• How Sandra turned the grief of losing her father into a lifelong writing career
• What a 'Human Story Architect' actually does — and why it's the antidote to AI-generated content
• The story of publishing her first book on CREDIT with zero audience and zero budget
• How she sold 150 copies in a single church visit and 800+ copies across her neighborhood
• Why she rebranded as 'Inkfluencer_Som' and what the name really means
• The biggest writing mistake beginners make (hint: it's all about yourself)
• Her practical advice for overcoming imposter syndrome and self-doubt
• What she wishes she knew 5 years ago about putting yourself out there
