This episode follows Vanessa’s inspiring journey from making tea and juice in her family kitchen to running a full-fledged restaurant built almost entirely from scratch. With no prior cooking experience, she stumbled into her passion when a single customer’s praise pushed her to keep going. From her first big cash order worth 45,000 KES to dreaming of a venue with a bar, Vanessa shares how she navigated humble beginnings in Huruma, endured strict home routines, and hustled through early ventures selling low-quality imports and running a popcorn stand outside a movie shop. She opens up about discrimination in the workplace, the steep learning curve of catering and scaling operations, and the challenges of opening a restaurant without enough seating, proper flooring, or even a roof. Over three years, she reinvested profits, leveraged savings, and weathered both booming months and tough downturns to build financial stability. Packed with lessons on resilience, resourcefulness, and the grit it takes to grow a business from nothing, this is a must-watch for aspiring entrepreneurs.
