017 | Empowering women and girls through funding, business and leadership opportunities with Sheena Brady and Solange Tuyishime | PT2

PT 2: This is the second part of three mini episodes of our chat with Sheena Brady and Solange Tuyishime. Sheena is a parent, Social Entrepreneur, Professional Speaker, Tea Sommelier and Storyteller. Solange is a parent, an International Keynote Speaker, Social Entrepreneur and Philanthropist.

Our conversation took place in November as part of a virtual event I hosted for parents. The next episode will feature the final part of our conversation, where we'll talk about advocating for yourself, thriving during difficult times, the importance of showing up and their plans for 2021.

THINGS WE TALK ABOUT: 

• Learning to delegate as a parent and business owner (while in labour)
• The importance of succession planning and putting trust in other people
• How to pitch to investors, sponsors and complete strangers
• The importance of storytelling and changing people’s perceptions
• Building resilience as you’re met with disappointment
• Why you should focus on the value you provide
• The effects of the pandemic on sponsorship
• Why you should ask for feedback on your pitch
