    I like the originality and the smile. I also like that phrase "just start". I also like the fact that she didn't stress everything as all effort but she also intensifies the power of grace. In the end you know there is lot of planning and real work to success

    Great conversation. This is inspiring. My best take out is that youths should make bold moves and take risks. Don't overthink, just step out, take actions, and solve problems for humanity. Thanks to Yanmo and Peace 🙏🙏🙏

    God bless Bamboo, God has used them to save our money from inflation vultures, especially those of us who so not have intl passport, security number and all the other prerequisites for investing in more friendly economies.

    No offence meant by this however this felt like a flaf marketing interview. Its no fault of the guest but more on the interviewer...Your questions lacked educational substance, we not here to know about her favour colour or places of travel. we here to learn about running a startup, the challenges it comes with, advise or tips or tools one can use to give them a competitive edge in the market place. You made her look bad, like her beauty is what opened doors for her and her gender...Not once was there a enlightening moment or a nugget of intellectually stimulating aha moment as to why she was a founder because of her mind.

      Use less of “we” and more of “I”. You’re probably the only one with that view.
      - She started bamboo after working a job in finance.
      -Bamboo was founded to solve a problem.
      -Bamboo got accepted into YC.
      -Bamboo is the first of it’s kind in Africa.
      What role did beauty play in any of this? You’re very delusional. Go and enroll in business school if that’s what you need.
