HOW I FAILED TO MY SUCCESS…
Â
My journey to success has been paved with failures. From a young age, I was determined to create a better life, driven by the lessons learned from my parents, who worked hard but often struggled to make ends meet. My path was anything but smooth—I fell for get-rich-quick schemes, made mistakes, and faced setbacks that left me questioning everything.
But each failure taught me something invaluable. I learned to carve out my own blueprint for success, focusing on authentic strategies rather than chasing others' paths. I embraced technical upskilling, mastering software automation and workflow optimisation, which transformed my business processes.
What truly drove me was the desire to build something meaningful—not just for myself, but for other Black women navigating the digital business world. I realised that success isn’t about avoiding failure; it’s about learning from it, adapting, and continuing to push forward with resilience and determination.
Today, Women in Digital Business is the culmination of my journey—a platform designed to empower Black female entrepreneurs by providing the tools, support, and community needed to succeed. My story is proof that you can fail your way to success, as long as you’re willing to learn, grow, and keep moving forward.

The RESUME
My journey spans over two decades of self-discovery, education, and entrepreneurial growth. Inspired by my Jamaican immigrant parents who moved to the UK in the 1960s, I learned early on the power of resilience, gratitude, and tough love—values that have shaped both my personal and professional life.
Growing up in the UK during the 80s and 90s, I faced racial discrimination that fuelled my determination to seek acceptance, respect, and success. I aspired to be a powerful and respected figure, much like the fictional characters who inspired me—though none of them looked or sounded like me. This realisation ignited my passion for representation and creating opportunities for people who, like myself, were often overlooked.
My entrepreneurial journey began with a focus on coaching, consulting, and training, helping both small businesses and large corporations achieve their goals. I’ve launched ventures ranging from an e-commerce platform selling cultural books to an Amazon store offering candles, and I successfully ran a cleaning company, gaining invaluable insights into people and processes.
Today, I lead a diverse and dynamic business portfolio. I manage Women In Digital Business, a thriving online community dedicated to empowering Black and Brown women entrepreneurs. I also serve as a marketing consultant and run an e-commerce business, while actively engaging in the real estate market in Ghana. Across these ventures, my mission remains clear: to empower and support women in unlocking their full business potential, whether through consulting, coaching, or training, ensuring they can achieve success on their own terms.
