Entrepreneur Advice from Pamela Muyeshi: You've got to believe in yourself

You've got to believe in yourself....

“There are less female business owners because, as women, we don’t believe enough in ourselves. If you are not strong-willed, you will not survive in business. A lot of women will start a business but will give up if they don’t have that dedication and strong will,” 

- Pamela Muyeshi is the founder of Amaica restaurant in Nairobi, Kenya serving traditional and authentic Kenyan food. Pamela prides herself on providing customers with a real cultural experience woven around authentic African food, the renowned warm African hospitality and a traditional African ambience to complete the picture. Amaica currently has two restaurants in Nairobi.
