Today we are joined by a friend of ours, Rowena Yaba who has chosen a path to become a Solopreneur after 8 years of being an employee here in Dubai!
Mind you, the journey has not been easy.
From age 16, Wena, as we fondly call her, started to work in a salon and eventually transitioned into a role as telephone operator. Her final stint was the more demanding job of being a Sales Coordinator for a huge oil manufacturing company in Ajman, UAE. She aspires to be the next Joel Cruz, the doctor-to-be-turned entrepreneur, who’s fondly called the Lord of scents!
Tune in and squeeze all the juice that you can get from this topic: Employee to Solopreneur!
Hope you enjoy this one!
