Trusting The Process episodes

August 06, 2018 5. Hustling in the corporate world; from London to Lagos, with Olamide Bada of Jumia Food
I had the pleasure of meeting with powerhouse and ultimate go-getter, Olamide Bada. After studying Law at SOAS, completing her Post-grad at the University of Law and going on to land a role at international law firm, Baker McKenzie, Olamide packed up her bags (and law career) and took to Nigeria for 2 years to take on the world of business.
Here she quickly rose from SWAT Team Manager at Jumia Nigeria to Managing Director of Jumia Food; miles from her humble beginnings in London. For her work at Jumia Food, Olamide has since been featured by Bella Naija as their #BellaNaijaWCW and was awarded the Prize for Professional Service at The Future Awards Africa in 2017.
We sat down to talk about creating a seat at the table, being your full self in a corporate environment and the realities of moving back "home".

July 28, 2018 4. Faith, knowing your why & balancing a biz with a 9-5, with Cherelle Brown of Kitsch Noir
I had the pleasure of meeting the delightfully talented Cherelle Brown, founder of Kitsch Noir - a quirky, fun and contemporary line of cards which champions the voice of the underrepresented, celebrating the love and enjoyment of the black British experience.
We talked about faith and the important role her belief as a Christian has played in the birth of Kitsch Noir, the realities of running a business whilst working full-time and just how she landed that HUGE Paperchase gig!? A must-listen for anyone with a budding business idea.

In the second instalment of Trusting The Process, I sit down to talk with none other than the intelligent and infectiously hilarious chef/baker/marketing babe Michelle Marbie Davies. We shed some more light on Michelle's career journey so far, navigating life after loss, shooting your shot/how she met Adekunle Bae and together we free the realness on our experiences of dating Christian men and why a change has got to come (word to Sam Cooke).

In the first episode of Trusting the Process, I sit down with Metro.co.uk Reporter and friend, Tobi Rachel Akingbade.
