About This Podcast

(So) How's Business? is the podcast for African women entrepreneurs who are figuring it out as they go. Hosted by Alma Mabachi, a bootstrapping founder and mother, this show trades polished success stories for raw, honest conversations. Every week is a candid look into the lives of women entrepreneurs and hustlers navigating the messy middle: the pivots, failures, small wins, big dreams, and what it actually takes to build something from scratch.
