Who is Vanessa Mbamarah?

Growing up, all I knew was fear and the constant voice in my head telling me "I wasn't good enough". I believed those words for as long as I could remember and it cost me everything.

Until I'd had enough

I stepped out of my 'fear zone' and embraced all of me - my past, my mistakes, my skills, my passion, my sense of humor, and most importantly my purpose.

I made a choice to build regardless of my challenges, to unleash my fullest potential and live life on my own terms.

Then everything changed.

I became one of Google's first success stories in Africa through the Google Digital Skills program, started my own business, and finally, a partner managing several training programs in Africa.

Who is Vanessa Mbamarah?

I believe you must accept all of you and bring it to the table if you want to succeed in today’s world.

Since then I have been privileged to train thousands of young African entrepreneurs and business owners globally..

Nigeria, Benin, the U.S., Togo, Burkina Faso, Rwanda, Cameroon, Mauritius, Niger, Mali, Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Cote d’Ivoire, DRC, South Africa, Singapore, Guinea Conakry, Ghana, and a host of others.

Now I focus on teaching impact-led builders - entrepreneurs, creators, and leaders how to structure, market, and monetize skills they already have.

When I'm not working on my business, I'm giving back to support less privileged kids and widows in Africa (through my foundation), serving as a Rotarian, and being a mom to my little princess.
