From launching a juice delivery business out of her kitchen and growing Nuli into cafés and supermarket lines, to seeing stores demolished and retrenching through the pandemic, she has faced setback after setback and rebuilt. Along the way, she turned those challenges into competitive advantage, scaled her brand internationally, and expanded her influence into investment and institutional leadership. They explore what it really means to make yourself indispensable: how to build strategic skills, create exposable value that travels across industries and markets, and lead through disruption without losing yourself.This conversation is for women who want to understand not just how to survive in business, but how to become so valuable that power follows you.
