In this week's episode we are In conversation with Mabutla Innocentia , who is a seasoned events planner. She takes us through the transition from being an accountant to being an events planner and owner of one of the most beautiful venues in the country and how she has navigated expanding her horizons as an events planner. Key Lessons from the episodes are as follows - Failure is a walk of life, there is nothing abnormal about it, embrace and learn from it. You can be doing something so big or what society deems noble and still be misaligned. You are where you need to be, soak in the lessons and skills. When you stop caring/lose respect for an environment it your sign that you need to leave. Give it 5 years, figure out if it works or not. If it works then give it your all and if it doesn't try something else. Whatever you do get out of bed, it's a symbol of your willingness to try... Don't despise those that are starting off, bring them closer. I hope you enjoyed this episode. Happy Employment Wednesday!
