Shared my thoughts with Charlotte on smart ways for women to boost their businesses in today's Saturday monitor.
I also talked about our recently launched savings and investment platform, mkazinvest!
We concluded the week long training yesterday, I'm still in awe. 25 beautiful aggressive women in one room, all hungry to create change in their communities! Not only did we receive and share knowledge, we're going to receive a small seed fund to support our projects!
The first session for the day. RIP Barry introduced the current and incoming boards, RIPE Barry officially welcomed Rotaract to the Assembly for the first time!
I crossed the finish line of the Women’s Day Run challenge by
@ActivateUgandaL
this morning.
It was a challenging but incredible experience to push through 16km to celebrate women’s strength and resilience!
In case you missed it, you can catch repeat on Friday, 4pm. Discussing how to implement feminism, fighting poverty and ensuring equity in payment within the work space
This week, I am visiting a couple of clubs to share my experience and findings at the International Assembly in San Diego. I hope my story inspires someone to find purpose in Rotaract and to keep keeping on!
From successful mini projects in our team colors, to a successful Rotaract Ladies At Work Conference and a successful Women's day project. I couldn't ask for any better team. Indeed when women work together, amazing things happen! Keep keeping on!
To all the Women on our team,
You have put aside resources and time voluntarily to make a difference in fellow Women's lives and we hope that you hit bigger milestones for this movement. We celebrate you today. Happy Women's day!

A prayer for the journalists that analyse (talk) before the President's address. They have to talk, talk, and talk and forge content until the man appears!
Two months ago I wrote an article on why this is the perfect time for entrepreneurs to embrace e-commerce.
I'll expound on this as a subtopic, on this webinar panel discussion later today. Join in!
We should have been in France today for the France-Africa Summit. Although covid19 has denied us this chance, i am truly grateful for the recognition!
Looking forward to the mentorship, guidance and funding

I believe it is very important to maintain relevant and supportive acquaintances but most importantly, work to achieve the best in every encounter. Thoughts?
Lesson learned this week: we will be and do many things in our lives. Some are prestigious, some are not. To whatever we face, our job is to respond with hard work, honesty, helping others..
At a Strategy session yesterday, i shared insights on how the NSSF, Outbox - Mastercard Hi- Innovator program can intervene to support women entrepreneurship

So I just read that on average, it takes over 10 years to solidify and build a profit generating startup. Perfect reminder that it’s okay to slow down and continuously refine your idea!
Yesterday we kicked off activities to enable women businesses access funding to take their businesses to the next level
Thanks to all partners, stakeholders & investors on board. Let’s fund women businesses!

The morning rain almost disrupted my end of year jogging plan. Managed to get in 10km and i can confirm that jogging in the rain is magic! Happy new year!
Wow, today has been a good day, we’ve celebrated women entrepreneurs! Thanks to our panelists, sponsors and partners.
I believe women businesses are at the frontline of increased economic growth, only if we hold their hand

It has been proven that the way we think determines how we deal with situations and setbacks, how we show up in life and how we develop ourselves. Mindset!
Reflecting on our recently concluded Women’s Day market day fills me with immense pride & gratitude. Witnessing 188 women entrepreneurs showcase their products was truly inspiring
It is moments like these that reaffirm the importance of our mission at
