Today, I’m joined by someone who doesn’t just talk about systems change...she builds it!Nanna Soenya is the founder of OmegaSeven Global, the visionary behind FundHerShip, and a driving force behind PIE Advisory, where Power, Insight and Ecosystems come together to reshape how organisations and communities grow.
Her work sits at the intersection of strategy, equity, and impact. Naana has dedicated her career to designing systems that expand access, dignity, and opportunity.
In this conversation, we explore Nanna’s international career journey, the pivotal moments that shaped her path, and why giving back isn’t an afterthought in her work... it’s the foundation.
We’ll also unpack what it really means to follow your passion in a practical, sustainable way, and how to build a career that feels aligned, not accidental.
So grab your coffee, settle in, and let’s sip into that inspiration!
Key Takeaways
* Systems Thinking: Nanna's ability to see and question systems from a "bird's eye view" is a core skill, honed by a family culture that demanded intellectual rigour and accountability.
* The PIE Framework: Power, Insight, and Ecosystems provides a structure for building thriving systems, emphasising internal power, applied knowledge, and balanced, symbiotic environments.
* Strategic Purpose: Purpose-driven work requires strategic planning to move from "survival mode" to "thriving." Continuous struggle is not a virtue; it leads to burnout and ineffective impact.
* FundHerShip Grant: The grant directly addresses the 0.02% funding gap for Black and Brown women by providing £10,000/month. This capital creates the traction and credibility needed to unlock larger institutional funding!
