“I turned my house into a gallery”

There was once a time when work, and passion were two distinct things. In this episode, Nevelia Moloi speaks to Miabo Enyadike, a businesswoman who makes a living off her passion, which is art. Miabo is an artpreneur and founder of Art Miabo and she shares how she’s turned her craft into a profitable career.

How’s this for a quotable quote: “If you drop a Nigerian in the Sahara Desert, they will sell sand to the people that have been living there!” Miabo says there are many things we can learn from Nigerian women, such as tenacity, innovation, and how to run a business with no electricity.

You’ll feel challenged to look at your hobbies and passion projects with new eyes.
