#2 Violet Amoabeng: Edible Skincare Made in Ghana

In this episode, I sit down with Violet Amoebeng, the visionary behind Skin Gourmet, to explore how raw, edible skincare from Ghana is challenging global perceptions and empowering communities. We dive deep into Violet’s personal journey—from her upbringing and international experiences to returning home and launching a brand that puts people over profit. Together, we unpack the challenges of ethical sourcing, the power of traceability, and the importance of creating jobs that truly transform lives. You’ll hear why 'Made in Ghana' is shedding its old stigma, how collective accountability shapes the entrepreneurial ecosystem, and what it really takes to build a business that’s both profitable and impactful. If you’re curious about the future of African innovation, or inspired by stories of resilience and purpose-driven leadership, this is a conversation you can’t miss.
