WHAT THEY SAY about redefining success with Nnenna Onuba

After 17 years in investment banking with firms including Rothschild and PwC, Nnenna walked away from corporate life to build a business rooted in balance. Today, she wears many hats as a founder, angel investor, board director and advocate for inclusive leadership. But this isn't just a conversation about entrepreneurship. It's about knowing when to take the leap, building a career that reflects your values and challenging the traditional definition of success. Together, they get into: • Why entrepreneurship isn't as glamorous as social media makes it look • The importance of side hustling before taking the leap • Why the future of leadership depends on the skills we've labelled as "soft" • What financial freedom really means and why money creates choice • Why managing your energy matters more than managing your time Plus, Nnenna jumps into our They Say / We Say quickfire, sharing her thoughts on the biggest career myths, leadership clichés and the advice women need to stop listening to. WHAT THEY SAY is the podcast from THEY SAY Studios, where creative meets digital, work meets real life, and there's always a bit of chaos. Made for women building big lives, not just big careers, and for anyone redefining success on their own terms.
