My vision is to be the first product of this kind in the mainstream and all other markets. My vision is women run business whose key virtues are clarity, decisiveness and conscientiousness. I will build a team that is purpose driven with a common goal that is held dear to all. This clear simple vision will bind us together. When we balance these strong complimentary forces, modesty and generosity at the centre can be a magnetic force that keeps the business intact. Solidarity around shared goals is essential for success.
When Oprah had the vision for her girls’ school she said: “When you change a girl’s life it’s not just that life. You start to affect a family, a community, a nation. I’m telling you, women are going to change the face of Africa.” I am trying to accomplish an opportunity for me to make a difference. For myself, for others. To show women through my example to “Go big or go home”. And I always held that belief, before I even heard it said by Oprah. To provide opportunities for strong dedicated women to succeed and to help in a big way. Not in a teacher/single mum “I do what I can way”. I follow my dream for this business everyday by reading the words of Howard Thurman: “Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive”.
