Working With Design Essentials Nigeria!!!!


I'm so amazed at how God works and seemingly orchestrates things for His own plan that unfolds little by little before our eyes. For a very long time in my life, speaking in front of people was a MAJOR challenge for me. I remember speaking about it in this post where I said  a few years ago, I decided to conquer my fear of public speaking and signed up for a course at the Lagos Business School - I didn't realise then that I was going to change careers and it would be coming in very very  handy!

I got the pleasure of meeting the representatives of Design Essentials Nigeria last year and it's been a very rewarding relationship so far. Somewhere along the line, I was asked to be a part of the team - starting as a technician and working my way up as an educator which would mean I'd help  train teams of stylists  either in salons where the products are stocked or where there's an event, and also be part of the styling team where necessary when Design Essentials are sponsors. I started the training process and made the team!



Just recently I've been part of the training team for a number of salons - walking them through the Natural range of Design Essentials products and helping to expand their style files when it comes to Natural Hair styling.

 I never thought I'd be one to stand in front of any number of people and speak to them with any sort of authority! lol. I know there are some people to whom addressing a crowd comes naturally but believe me, this is a major achievement for me!



I'm so thankful and so happy that I get to make a difference by teaching people new things and making them seek creative ways of getting things done. For someone who once burst into hot tears after mumbling and fumbling my way through a presentation during my Masters Degree, I cannot but be thankful!

 Truly once you put your mind to it, anything is possible!

Till my next post
