[IOL] Empowering women: The inspiring journey of Nomsa Mdhluli from journalism to entrepreneurship

Nomsa Mdhluli never planned to become an entrepreneur.

“I didn’t harbour dreams of being an entrepreneur some day,” she said.

Her move into business began while she was working in journalism, after someone approached her for help with a public relations project — a field she had studied at an undergraduate level. The work went well, and the client returned year after year.
