In this episode, I open up about how everything I had planned... didn’t go to plan.
From giving a 3-month notice and ending up with just one, to canceling my trip home to Kenya for Eid — nothing unfolded the way I expected.
But life had other gifts.
Instead of working, I got to spend the entire month of Ramadan grounded in reflection, faith, and spiritual growth.
Here’s what I share in this episode:
- The reality of plans falling apart
- Why adaptability is a superpower in business and life
- The confidence I gained from speaking just 5 minutes at a workshop ( Recording available in the episode)
- How that one moment shifted my mindset as a new entrepreneur
- The unexpected challenges of building a business as a Kenyan in Dubai
💫 This episode is a reminder that the path rarely looks like what we imagined — but it’s always preparing us for who we’re meant to become
