A rallying cry to our community

I am always humbled by just how incredibly supportive our Lionesses of Africa community members can be - and this has certainly been the case during the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdowns. When we gave a rallying cry to our community that we all needed to come together, to share our experiences, insights and advice for our Business Unusual portal, so many of you rose to the challenge. Each week, we publish your stories, your blogs, your video chats and your podcasts. You honestly share how you are all feeling and coping with the challenges that this crisis has created in your businesses and in your lives generally. It is this open-hearted sharing and connecting with one another that has proved to be such an inspirational life-line for so many of our Lionesses who have been taking real strain. As we all now adapt to the new normal in our lives and businesses, more than ever it is important that we are there to support and inspire one another. So please keep sharing your thoughts, experiences and advice on our Business Unusual portal - that’s the power of community in action.

Have yourself an inspired entrepreneurial day! — Melanie
