I’m a corporate girl but I found myself relating so much to this lady! Wow, I love to hear from people you can tell are still on a journey , and constantly gauging their self awareness. Nothing rehearsed! Also, it’s lovely to hear someone figuring out a whole new avenue of life in their late 30s or 40s . I don’t know man, but I really enjoyed this conversation. 😅❤
Me too I relate
Am here thinking the same thing...
Right???? Xoxo Nomndeni
" ...the struggle with collaborating; the struggle sometimes with empowerment is insecurity.... how do I empower you if I don't feel like I have enough!?" What a powerful quote on abundance mindset. smacked me right in the face!
Love the idea of creating an ecosystem amongst your staff. Helping them grow, that's the next level of empowering people around you.
I found that powerful as well. Xoxo Nomndeni
Love seeing African women unite. Lots of gems in this video

I wasn't sure I'd watch this far. I'm so used to generic advice but this interview is so humanistic and relatable. I loved every moment of it so far. This is awesome. Thank you to both the host and the interveiwee❤
First of all, alililiiii 😅for the Kenyan girlies🎉. Secondly Oh my goodness Wandiaaa, I'm screaming! So relatable, she's honestly my Oprah. I keep begging more local content creators to interview her. She sparks a certain hunger in me.... I wear Vivo atft 😊😊😊😊love love loooooove!
Excellent interview 🙂!
I lived in Kenya 🇰🇪 1964-68 and returned to school there for GCE A’Levels 1973-74 (at LGS) and so much of what was discussed - fashion! what Womn/gals wear 🙂 - resonated regarding received images of what/how 'Feminity' is clothed and accessorised.
More wind to the wings of your business 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 BRAVA !!!
Beautiful episode Nomndeni
