Expert Harps On Female Entrepreneurs’ Well-Being For Biz Success
A Parenting Coach and Child Development Consultant, Sandra Oluwadare, has said that a woman’s business success is also determined by her ability to keep and nurture the home front.
Oluwadare said this at this year’s edition of the Mamador’s August meeting held over the weekend in Lagos.
She reiterated the need for entrepreneurs to give their well-being the utmost priority it deserves, to enable them succeed in their businesses.
The Coach, who was speaking on the topic: “Parenting in This Generation”, argued that today’s women must know that modern-day parenting has changed from what it used to be in the past.
She stated that the advent of technology, and social media has made today’s child more inquisitive, knowledgeable and independent-minded than those of the olden days.
She, therefore, advised mothers on the need to constantly engage their children, so as to have some insight into their world, and what can be done to enable them to be on the same page with such child.
A medical practitioner and health influencer, Egemba Chinonso, popularly known as Aproko Doctor, urged women to always be conscious of their health status by being moderate in whatever they consume.
He advised every woman to be aware of their vital statistics and always go for routine medical checks, whenever the need arises.
Speaking on the rationale behind the meeting, the Head of Marketing, PZ Wilmar Foods Limited, Chioma Mbanugo, explained that the meeting, “Nourish to Flourish: Elevating Health and Wealth”, is to highlight the need for women to adequately prioritise their health and general well-being while striving to build wealth.
She added that the annual event was conceived to recognise and celebrate Nigerian women for their diligence, resilience, breaking the status quo, and relentless quest for success regardless of limitations or barriers along their path.

Kenyan Runners Dominate Berlin Marathons
Kenya made it a clean sweep at the Berlin Marathon with Sabastian Sawe winning the men’s race and Rosemary Wanjiru triumphing in the women’s.
Sawe finished in two hours, two minutes and 16 seconds to make it three wins in his first three marathons.
The 30-year-old, who was victorious at this year’s London Marathon, set a sizzling pace as he left the field behind and ran much of the race surrounded only by his pacesetters.
Japan’s Akasaki Akira came second after a powerful latter half of the race, finishing almost four minutes behind Sawe, while Ethiopia’s Chimdessa Debele followed in third.
“I did my best and I am happy for this performance,” said Sawe.
“I am so happy for this year. I felt well but you cannot change the weather. Next year will be better.”
Sawe had Kelvin Kiptum’s 2023 world record of 2:00:35 in his sights when he reached halfway in 1:00:12, but faded towards the end.
In the women’s race, Wanjiru sped away from the lead pack after 25 kilometers before finishing in 2:21:05.
Ethiopia’s Dera Dida followed three seconds behind Wanjiru, with Azmera Gebru, also of Ethiopia, coming third in 2:21:29.
Wanjiru’s time was 12 minutes slower than compatriot Ruth Chepng’etich’s world record of 2:09:56, which she set in Chicago in 2024.
