Ep 43. The Rise of a Powerful Woman, From the bedroom floor to African Star
Want some inspiration from a 'can do' woman? Armed with just R1 000 in her pocket, a laptop and a cellphone, and sitting on her bedroom floor, Farah Fortune famously started African Star Communications in 2008. Today, Farah Fortune is a well-known businesswoman behind many successful corporate and celebrity brands throughout Africa. She is better known to her clients and the industry as The Pitbull in Heels. Her email signature says describes her as Defender of the Galaxy. I first met Farah when we were sitting next to each other at a Woman of Worth networking dinner with the inimitable women's empowerment champion, Margaret Hirsch. What struck me at that time about Farah was her humility, clarity and feminity. The Pitbull in her points to how she gets results for her clients. The Defender in her refers to her commitment to empowering women and marginalised communities.She says, "Being a powerful woman is only valid if you use that power to help other women."Listen to this inspiring conversation that covers:
Starting a business in a man's world
Barriers to entry
Advice for female entrepreneurs
Using one's platform and success to help other women
Changing narratives that no longer serve us
What drives Farah to succeed
