S2 E1. Hanifa: Quitting, Soul-Searching then Building a 7-Figure Brand with Anifa Mvuemba

Anifa Mvuemba is the founder of luxury womenswear label, Hanifa. Born in Nairobi, Kenya to two Congolese parents, Anifa migrated with her family to the US during the war. Anifa studied Fashion Merchandising briefly at Morgan State University, whilst her parents thought she was studying business, but she dropped out to pursue what she really wanted, fashion design.

She self taught herself how to create garments and began taking custom orders, saying yes to everything and learning on the go. Anifa has experienced many ups and downs during the period of running her business, at one point quitting for one year to soul search. Through the tough times, she’s persevered and is now running an admirable 7 figure fashion label.

In today’s episode we spoke about EVERYTHING! From Anifa’s childhood, getting her parents to see her vision, the 24 hour work days, how she funded her brand, dressing many celebrities, and of course creating the world's first 3D fashion show in 2020 which broke the internet.
