SN3, Episode 9: I Lost Close to 400,000 | Anne Muhia on Employee Theft, Motherhood & Building
<p>Anne Muhia is an entrepreneur, founder of Winners Arena Africa, and in this episode, she takes us through one of her earliest and most painful business lessons: a butchery story, and how she navigated employee theft at the time. From there, we trace Anne's full journey: from working as a group finance manager, to quitting impromptu, starting her own business, and how motherhood has shaped who she is today — including the ongoing reality of raising a daughter who requires special care while continuing to grow her business.We also get into the mindset shifts that separate founders who scale from founders who stay stuck, then we close with a look at the key numbers every founder should actually be tracking.lA personal note: Anne's journey through motherhood continues alongside her business, as she cares for her daughter who requires special care.
