Ngozi Onwuchekwa is an inspirational speaker, award-winning digital marketer, and proud cancer survivor who was crowned Mrs Exceptional Lady Universe 2023 at the Mrs Universe pageant in Miami. Her remarkable journey of resilience and transformation has made her a sought-after voice in the fields of health advocacy, wellness, and empowerment. From battling the rare and aggressive cancer, Rhabdomyosarcoma, to becoming an international pageant winner, Ngozi’s life is a testament to the power of determination and positivity. Her story is not only inspiring but also deeply impactful, as she uses her platform to raise awareness for Sarcoma UK and empower individuals to overcome adversity.
Born in Nigeria with part-Brazilian heritage, Ngozi moved to the UK at the age of 11. Her drive for success took her on an extraordinary professional journey, spanning Singapore, New York, and eventually back to the UK. With an MBA in marketing and over a decade of experience, Ngozi excelled as a digital marketing strategist, working with international brands and building a reputation for her ability to deliver impactful campaigns. Despite her professional achievements, life threw her an unimaginable challenge in 2020 when she was diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma. During the global pandemic, she underwent 12 months of gruelling chemotherapy and surgeries, emerging victorious against the odds.
In 2023, within a year of remission, Ngozi embraced a new challenge: competing in the Mrs Universe pageant. Using the competition as a platform to share her story and raise awareness for rare cancers, she was crowned Mrs Exceptional Lady Universe 2023. This achievement marked the beginning of a new chapter in her life as a public figure and advocate. She also delivered her first TEDx talk in 2024 on the topic of overcoming F.E.A.R to triumph, further cementing her status as an inspiring thought leader.
Today, Ngozi is a passionate speaker, delivering talks on topics including resilience, wellness, cancer awareness, and inclusion. She ran the Brighton Marathon in 2024, raising funds for Sarcoma UK, and has become an ambassador for the charity. Through her compelling storytelling, she empowers audiences to embrace positivity and find strength in adversity.
