Women Advised to Develop and Commercialize Skills for Financial Freedom
The Paramount Queen believes that in addition to having mentors and coaches women, especially young women need to adopt a new mindset of being capable of accomplishing anything.
Paramount Queen of Penyi Traditional Area and the Founder and Executive Director of Ama Adoma International Foundation, Mamaga Hoeflewo Dadzi II, has advised women to develop their skills and commercialize them.
This she believes was crucial in achieving financial independence.
“The majority of people think that becoming financially independent requires being a millionaire or something – to become financially stable as a woman, you need to consider the income you earn and your expenses, you must consider and develop your skills and commercialize them,” she said.
Mamaga Dadzi was speaking in an interview with Ghananewsonline.com.gh at Penyi in the Ketu North Municipality of the Volta region.
The Paramount Queen believes that in addition to having mentors and coaches women, especially young women need to adopt a new mindset of being capable of accomplishing anything.
“What do you bring to the table? When you cannot tell, you are not listened to, not just in the home but the society at large – Leave abusive partners, and don’t rely on anybody else entirely, because violence often results from over dependence,” she advised.
“Women should have the mindset that they can accomplish anything,” she emphasized.
Mamaga Dadzi further emphasized the importance of confidence and self-esteem in achieving financial independence.
“People do not just look at you for being a woman but your competence and what you can bring on board,” she said.
She advised that women should go in for men who do not feel intimidated by the success of women in order not to be limited and suppressed.
