Lessons from our Solo Woman Entrepreneur
My earliest memory of Sahar is seeing her speaking with the manufacturing team of Bare Necessities, explaining how to green menstrual cycles. The zeal with which she spoke about sustainability was truly remarkable, displaying a deep sense of passion for the environment. She’s truly a trailblazer in the sustainability space, an inspiring entrepreneur, who has spent over a decade immersed in zero waste living. She’s a sustainability nerd in the truest sense of the word, and is working towards creating meaningful change in the world.
We find ourselves in a world that is increasingly turning to buzzwords such as ESG, CSR and circularity everywhere. They have become so ingrained in corporate lingo, often risking losing their true meaning. Unfortunately, these words are also frequently used for optics rather than spearheading actual change.
For Sahar, though, the focus is on setting these in motion, thereby, addressing these concepts in a way that makes a difference. Her objective is to help organisations move beyond the surface level understanding and instead move towards taking actionable steps towards a sustainable future.
Therefore, her workshops are seated deeply in sharing stories, real life change and diving into practical steps that individuals and organisations can take. They are designed to bridge the gap between vague concepts and instead take tangible actions. These workshops are meant to make sustainability accessible and practical for every organisation. By empowering organisations with the tools and know-how, Bare Necessities is working to make sustainability an integral part of business operations, rather than just another thing on a checkbox.
Beyond sustainability, Sahar has had some truly unique experiences. Her experience volunteering in Jamaica, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Guatemala, enabled her to have an expansive definition of interculturalism and inequality. These experiences taught her the power of women coming together and ultimately resulted in building a strong women run manufacturing team.
Against this backdrop of having seen and built women led teams, Sahar, has hosted deeply thoughtful workshops about employee engagement, fostering women connections amongst other topics.
Her ability to blend sustainability seamlessly with other topics of relevance is truly motivating to listen in to. If you’re looking to positively engage your team, reach out to Sahar! Through her wide range of lived experiences, she can share her insights on solo woman entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship, overcoming challenges, driving sustainability within your organisation to name a few!
