Linda Gieskes-Mwamba (Suki Suki Naturals)

In today's episode we meet Johannesburg- based entrepreneur Linda Gieskes – Mwamba, the founder and CEO of Suki Suki Naturals

Born in Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo to entrepreneurial parents, Linda's venture into entrepreneurship started when  she wanted to ditch the chemicals and grow out her natural afro-textured hair. 

She quickly discovered that she literally could not afford to grow her own natural hair because either the products were too expensive and not really worth the cost, or if they were cheap, they were full of the very chemicals she was trying to avoid,  So, she decided to do something about it.

After months of  shopping in the food aisles, she created her own oil blend, which is now the hero product of the brand, the Miraculous Oil. And the rest, as they say, is history. 

Join us for a wonderful chat that ranges in subjects and  have you wanting to go out there and create something of your own.
