Founded in 2020 by Sharika Sukhu, I Am Warrior Magazine was born from a vision to create a powerful platform where voices are heard, stories are celebrated, and lives are transformed. What began as a passion project has grown into an internationally recognized publication dedicated to empowering women, inspiring communities, and creating meaningful conversations around issues that matter most.

Under the leadership of Founder and Publisher Sharika Sukhu, a Gender-Based Violence survivor, activist, philanthropist, radio personality, model, and community leader, the magazine has become a beacon of hope, resilience, and empowerment. Sharika’s personal journey of overcoming adversity fuels the magazine’s mission to ensure that every woman knows her worth, embraces her strength, and understands that her story has the power to inspire others.

Since its inception, I Am Warrior Magazine has proudly featured more than 5,000 women from South Africa and across the globe, providing a platform for entrepreneurs, community leaders, activists, professionals, artists, authors, and everyday women whose stories deserve to be heard. Through these features, the magazine has built a powerful network of women who support, uplift, and encourage one another.

I Am Warrior Magazine is more than a publication—it is a movement. Each edition shines a spotlight on issues affecting women, families, youth, and communities, including mental health, gender-based violence, personal development, entrepreneurship, leadership, education, and social change. By sharing authentic stories of courage, resilience, and triumph, the magazine inspires readers to rise above challenges and become agents of change within their own communities.

Over the years, the publication has received numerous local, national, and international awards and recognitions for its contribution to media, community development, women’s empowerment, and social advocacy. These accolades reflect the magazine’s unwavering commitment to excellence, impact, and positive transformation.

In addition to its digital and print publications, I Am Warrior Magazine actively collaborates with organizations, businesses, community groups, and change-makers to create awareness campaigns, empowerment initiatives, networking opportunities, and community outreach projects that leave a lasting impact.

Our vision is to build a global sisterhood where every woman feels seen, valued, and empowered. Our mission is to educate, inspire, motivate, and celebrate women from all walks of life while creating opportunities for growth, healing, and success.

At I Am Warrior Magazine, we believe that every woman is a warrior. Every scar tells a story. Every challenge creates strength. Every voice matters.

Together, we are changing lives, breaking barriers, and building a legacy of empowerment—one story at a time.
