I am always pleasantly surprised by how much women learn when they come together. Wana Udobang and I put together the #RedefiningFinance Event in April this year. As we planned the event, we weren’t sure what to expect. All we knew was there was a dearth of personal financial planning amongst our peers and we wanted to create a platform…
Haters! Everywhere! No matter what you do these days, there always seems to be someone somewhere who isn’t satisfied or has a complaint. Critics….they can make you or break you.

Friendships. One of life’s necessary ingredients. Complicated little monsters that can make life quite difficult or filled with laughter and pleasant memories.

It’s the type of bother that hits you on a Friday evening when you’d rather be having dinner with that special someone or that creeps up on you when you are planning…
I find that many people are in transition. Where we are isn’t necessarily where we want to be. We spend our quiet times thinking about possibilities but our day to day lives don’t match the ambitions we hold in our hearts. I’ve been there. Constantly wondering when I’ll finally be living in the reality of my dreams. Until one day…
Hello and welcome to the month of JULY! We live in a very competitive world where it seems we are all trying to keep up with the Jones’s or at least appear to be doing so. The problem with competition, in my opinion, is that it fosters comparisons which can be incredibly distracting. My mantra has always been, ‘be a…

By Glory Edozien After 4 years of what we all agreed to call a ‘man drought’, my besto, turned sister, Temi was in a healthy loving relationship for longer than 6 months. We had all questioned the lack of a man in Temi’s life for a long time. She was pretty, smart, friendly and had lost almost 20kg following a…
