In this episode of the Giist Radio podcast, Bibi Gnagno of OMGiLoveYourHair.com talks about her journey from failure post law school to successfully starting a natural hair and healthy living business in the Ivory Coast. Definitely a unique story. Listen in after the click.
This week’s episode of the Giist Radio podcast brings us our second guest, Bibi Gnagno from OMGiLoveYourHair.com.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- How failing the bar exam changed her life
- How Bibi healed her body naturally rather than via surgery, as prescribed by her doctors.
- How hair perspectives and myths transcend geography (for example, what do I do with my hair?! is a question women in Ivory Coast, Lagos and everywhere else ask, frequently.)
- Insights on authentic living, self love and perseverance
