The Limerick Lady 41: Tina Nsubuga, Put More Into The World Than You're Taking Out

On this month's episode your hosts Emma Langford and Ann Blake are joined from Barcelona by special guest Tina Nsubuga.  Tina is a 29-year-old Ugandan-Irish Fashion-Tech entrepreneur. Ever evolving and exploring, she currently finds herself developing a company that influences not just our thoughts on fashion but also our behaviours towards a much more sustainable fashion lifestyle.  On top of that, she's also focusing on separating her work and career from her self worth by actively slowing down and reconsidering what success looks like. During the chat, Tina talks about her childhood experience of foster care, about how everything she's done up to now has felt like "preparation for opportunity", and about how passion and curiosity have driven her on in life. She also explains that her interest in sustainability came from a feeling that she wasn't putting into the world what she was taking out of it when working in the fashion industry.  Oh, and as an aside she tells us her favourite pastime is petting random dogs on the streets. We approve.  Find Tina on Twitter at @NsubugaTina  On LinkedIn: Christine Nsubuga  Follow Ann Blake on Twitter at annblake78, on Instagram at annblakeplay and check out  her band The Brad Pitt Light Orchestra on twitter at BPLO.
