In this exclusive interview with The Entrepreneur Times magazine for the "Most Influential Women in Leadership 2023" edition, she shares her remarkable journey, insights, and vision for a brighter Africa.

A Vision Born from Personal Experience Bamidele Seun Owoola's journey to becoming a formidable force in the world of trade and investment in Africa began with her upbringing in the United Kingdom during the 1990s. It

was during this time that she was exposed to prevailing negative stereotypes about Africa, which portrayed it as a continent plagued by problems. War, hunger, poverty, and despair were the recurring themes in discussions about Africa.

However, Bamidele saw a stark contrast between these stereotypes and the immense potential, rich culture, and opportunities in Africa.

This dissonance between perception and reality ignited a deep determination in Bamidele to challenge these misconceptions and create opportunities for positive change on the continent.

Instead of accepting the prevailing negative stereotypes, she envisioned Africa as a hub of trade and investment, brimming with potential and ripe for development.

A Special Focus on Nigeria's Agricultural Sector Welcome2Africa International places a special focus on Nigeria's agricultural sector, which currently covers 25% of the nation's GDP and is worth over $500 billion. This sector plays a crucial role in job creation, food security, and economic growth. By focusing on this sector, Bamidele and her team aim to attract investments that can transform Nigeria's agricultural landscape, benefitting investors and contributing to sustainable development.

One of the organization's flagship initiatives is the hosting of investment conferences in strategic cities around the world. These conferences have had a significant impact in creating awareness and fostering partnerships.

They bring together investors, government officials, and businesses from around the world to explore opportunities in Nigeria, and as a result, over $5 billion worth of trade and investment commitments into Africa have been facilitated by its board.

Long-Term Goals and Aspirations Bamidele's long-term goals for W2A are nothing short of visionary. She envisions expanding the organization's reach, fostering more partnerships, and creating sustainable trade and investment networks across Africa. Achieving this will require continuous engagement with stakeholders, advocating for policy reforms, and showcasing the incredible opportunities Africa has to offer.

Bamidele Seun Owoola and her team have engaged with local and international organizations, including Alluvial Agriculture, Arab Trading Company, and AFEX Commodities, among others. These collaborations have allowed them to leverage each

The Role of Education and Skills Bamidele's educational background in Criminology and Social Psychology from Essex University and political science from the University of Abuja provides her with the tools to effectively convey Welcome2Africa International's message and manage the multifaceted aspects of the organization. Her skills in communications, marketing, branding, and project management have been instrumental in promoting trade and investment opportunities in Africa.

Tailoring Initiatives to Local Needs Africa is a diverse continent with unique challenges and opportunities in different regions.

n an exclusive interview with The Entrepreneur Times, Morgana Rae, President of Charmed Life Coaching Inc., shared her remarkable journey from an unexpected path into the world of entrepreneurship. Having evolved into a leading expert in transforming people's relationship with money, Morgana's story is one of resilience, selfdiscovery, and a profound understanding of the human psyche.

Unintended Beginnings: From Acting to Coaching Morgana's trajectory into entrepreneurship was far from conventional. With aspirations of becoming a Professor of Religion, she pivoted into acting before ultimately finding her true calling as a coach. Reflecting on her journey, she revealed, "I was happiest when I was helping other people." This realization marked the turning point that led her to transition from acting to full-time coaching, a decision that would define her future path.

A Paradigm Shift in Money Perception Morgana's unique focus on transforming one's relationship with money stemmed from her personal struggles. Despite her extensive efforts, she found herself grappling with financial challenges. It was a pivotal moment during a coaching call that brought her to a startling revelation about her perception of money as a person – a big, scary, and dangerous biker dude.

"I observed the way I wanted all the distance in the world between me and this biker dude 'Money.' This moment told me everything I needed to know about my results," she explained.

The Birth of "Financial Alchemy" In 2006, Morgana penned her first book, "Financial Alchemy, 12 Months of Magic and Manifestation," which marked a significant milestone in her career. The book, born out of a need for a product to sell at an expo, quickly rose to international acclaim, opening doors to major

41

media platforms and propelling her message to a global audience.

The Power of Change and Safety With three decades of experience as a life coach, Morgana emphasized that change happens at the "Speed of Safety." Delving into the core philosophy of her coaching methodology, she shared, "We make money a specific, monstrous, imaginary person, because abstract values are harder to change. This allows us to rewire the way you experience and respond to the world."

Driving Forces and Aspirations Motivated by her passion to empower individuals and create a positive impact, Morgana's work is grounded in the idea that true wealth serves love, lifestyle, and legacy. She envisions a world where self-worth and personal power render individuals immune to fear-based manipulation, fostering a culture of genuine fulfillment and contribution.

A Call to Transformation For those seeking to transform their relationship with money, Morgana's online platform, www.MorganaRae.com, serves as a comprehensive resource hub. From insightful articles and videos to a self-assessment quiz and coaching programs, her website offers a gateway to embark on a journey toward a healthier and more prosperous money mindset.

In her parting words, Morgana invites everyone to embrace their uniqueness and contribute to the world in their own authentic way, fostering a culture of genuine connection and support.

Morgana Rae's journey is a testament to the power of self-discovery and the profound impact of transforming one's relationship with money.

Through her unique approach and unwavering dedication, she continues to inspire countless individuals to redefine their perceptions and achieve financial empowerment.
