Our guest on today’s episode is trailblazer Rashida Abdulai. Rashida is a UK based lawyer who transitioned from an International Arbitration role at Hogan Lovells to starting her own award-winning, technology-driven, legal services firm called Strand Sahara. Rashida shares her journey around this transition and how being coached, being part of a business accelerator program, and having a supportive network really allowed her to ease into entrepreneurship. Rashida candidly shares how as an entrepreneur even the best-laid plans are secondary to the demands of the market. She advises listeners to start now with what you have.
