This week on the podcast, Paula interviews the mentor-in-her-head Pat Okelo, the woman behind one of the strongest female business communities in Kenya.

Pat is the mind behind Willart productions, a design and production company; Conferencing in a Box, an events company; A Candid handbook for women doing business in Kenya; Candid Conversations: circles for women in business; and Kayana, a community space for female entrepreneurs among many other things.

This is her second time on the podcast (she was featured in season 1 [Ep.5.5]) and based on the wisdom dropped this episode, it won’t be her last.

In this episode, we also talk about:

  • The importance of feedback/criticism
  • The steps of great execution
  • The importance of mentorship and coaching for leadership
  • Building a symbiotic business empire
  • Building a routine that works for you
  • The benefits of a supportive spouse
