Founders & Fixers: Entrepreneurial pursuits of four exceptional women

and Tareela Okene are young, intelligent, ambitious and innovative Nigerian women who founded their businesses and are nurturing it against all odds. From business growth to skincare and beauty, edutainment and baking, these audacious women spoke to TOBI AWODIPE on their journey to success, overcoming challenges, succeeding in the world of entrepreneurship, helping women build a successful business amongst other issues.

I assist through training, one-on-one coaching, online courses, educational and financial management resources and so on. I recently created two coaching programmes, My Business Case, and The BOSS Con Mastermind Program. These two programmes are focused on helping women founders and CEOs with tailor-made solutions to their business needs or challenges.

With a vision to be the go-to lifestyle and beauty companion for women in Nigeria and Africa, Kalanne has trained almost 1,500 women to become financially independent through the business of beauty and skincare. Also the COO of Buns & Batter Ltd, a sit-in bakery and bistro in Port Harcourt, she also sits on the board of directors of Macwills Ltd.

Not exactly, because I know that if they knew better, they wouldn’t interchangeably use skincare and toning, as they are polar opposites. Skincare is the range of practices that support skin integrity, enhance its appearance and relieve skin conditions, which include nutrition, avoidance of excessive sun exposure and appropriate use of emollients and so on. My job is to educate individuals on the right skin practices through my virtual consultations sessions.

As a chief proponent of ‘edutainment,’ what does it mean for you and how are you exemplifying it through what you do? I love children so much and will do everything to make them happy. Creating memories for families and most especially children is what drives me. This is why most of my projects are tied around them. It’s doesn’t stress me, provided children are well taken care of.I am always open to learning new things and takes corrections when needed. I avoid distractions and focus on my work and avail myself of workshops, conferences and so on.
