    S03.Ep12. How she started a dairy free ice-cream brand known for Serving love through scoops with Sinenhlanhla Ndlela

    In the guest chair today we have Sinenhlanhla Ndlela who is the founder of Yococo dairy free ice-cream. With a background in TV writing and post-production, Sinenhlanhla taught herself how to make ice-cream and run a small business. What first intrigued me and I got to love the most is how she is able to creatively blend in parts of herself into the ice-cream making, that is her vegan lifestyle and the spiritual aspect. In our conversation, she mentions how she is fulfilled whenever she is in a place where she can serve and through Yococo she is able to serve love through scoops. This conversation was recorded months ago just after her solo-cation and you'll get to hear parts of that story. This is what we further spoke about; 1. What gave her the courage to start the business without any prior experience in ice-cream making 2. How was the ice-cream first received in the market and what were some of the challenges she encountered in getting it out there 3. What she mainly considers for her collaborative works 4. Her approach with setbacks 5. How is she able to wear many hats in her business without burning out 6. And finding purpose. I hope that you do take something from this conversation today, do enjoy. ************************************************************************************** Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast if you haven't already, rate and review us.
