What's SISUMOI?

Sisumoi [see-soo-mwa]. "Sisu" is an ancient Finnish term for a universal capacity to channel a magical source of strength in the face of extreme adversity. It's an empowered action mindset to rise above the challenge no matter what. "Moi" is French for me.

"Sisumoi": My strength in overcoming adversity to reach my dreams.
