There are moments when I deeply miss Olive8 Productions, cos, well its.deeply me.
Seeing an influx of new followers on this page, together with messages from past clients asking if I can still help them, has reminded me just how special that chapter of my life was.
Olive8 has been closed for some time now and was officially deregistered with CIPC. That decision came with some incredibly hard lessons, but also some of the most valuable joyful ones. Entrepreneurship has a way of shaping you in ways you never expect.
Today, I have the privilege of leading at Nedbank, where I literally get up to support thousands of entrepreneurs on their own journeys. Every conversation with a business owner reminds me why Olive8 mattered so much—it gave me lived experience that no textbook ever could.
To every client who trusted Olive8, thank you. You played a part in who I am today.
And for those who have recently joined this page... welcome. While Olive8 may have come to an end, my passion for entrepreneurs certainly hasn't.
There's more to come. Watch this space. I'm brewing many more businesses in my hood! Love you, see you, get it. Always. Monique ###
