Why do girls and women need to be educated and motivated?  The answers are not lost on us and on the different issues we see happen everyday. For some women and girls, if they knew that the more confident they are, most times the more they are focused and the more they achieve. A total woman started from a girl child who knew and appreciated her strength and understood her weakness to develop herself, her self esteem, her potentials and much more importantly her life to become who she is meant to be. With a deep and strong focus on developing the girl child into a confident, esteemed and well inspired to take more than a leap into achieving her goals; Pink Ambition believes that education without its proper application, focused inspiration, and self assesment is like creating a produt without its mechanics.  Inspiration; knowledge based inspiration is every where but oblivious to those who do not seek or searh for it. We strongly believe that the special ingredients a...

Physicists and astronomers see their own implications in the world being round, but to me it means that only one-third of the world is asleep at any given time and the other two-thirds is up to something. - Dean Rusk. Either you sleep,  either its death, either its half awake, either its dead slumber, either it is dead knocked out or sleep walk, either its a nap or a little rest down the river side, all are up to something- SLEEP. What are you UP to today, now, later, then, tomorrow? We must all be up to something? Never stop being up to something!

If a woman is sufficiently ambitious, determined and gifted - there is practically nothing she can't do." - Helen Lawrenson P- Purpose; a female's passion, and also entails what she wants to do abou t it. A woman is identified not only by how she is but by who she is. Your quirks; your personality. Your passion. What oils your weakness and strength, and compel your attention because you cannot just stop being involve in it. What drives you? How do you drive it, why are you driving it and where are you heading to? That is PURPOSE. I- Inspiration; Can be those soft knowledge she hears and sees; that touches her stance and oils her determination to succeed. Sometimes she feels it can’t be done, but with those nuggets she is inspired to move on. Stories from females all over the worlds who had defied the common reasons and excuses and have transported their businesses into a worthy destination or unto a worthy destination. Not just stories but Facts. That is INSPIRATION. N- Ne...

EVEN IF YOU WERE HIS CONCUBINE I read an article lately about Aliko Dangote (an African billionaire) on a popular site and when I looked at the comment section I was amazed by what some people wrote. One comment stung my gaze and I recoile d in shame for the lady who wrote the comment in ignorance. I couldn’t for the life of me think why in this millennium; some people can still hamper such suicidal thoughts. Either she knew it or not, the article was written as an inspirational evidence, especially for young people to help them think and understand the need to take risk, think big, and think beyond their present circumstances so as to take a leap for the greater future. The article was about how Aliko Dangote started out and built his now great business empire through hardwork. Her comment read “wow, he is indeed loaded, how I wish I could know him, wouldn’t mind being his mistress.” I have been told that not everyone dreams. But I beg to differ that in this world and at a time like...

“No man is an island, yet solution is in part a function of our individual discovery”    - PINK AMBITION We all need a daily check of ourselves to see if in part we are individually doing what it takes to help solve the myriads of problems that have plaque us for so long.  To create this distinction is a need to fully understand what is happening in and around us and what “I” and “WE” can do about it. It is an “obvious reality” that the more we discover about ourselves the more we can help the teams who have discovered before us to solve the problems. All hands must be on deck, but individuality is the beginning of the process to correct the absurdity that has become normal to us all. The abnormality; the deficit in our morals, the decadence of our identitiy as women, the restrictions of our rights, the unproductive menance of the generation we have helped to nurture, the violence against our sex, against our rights, against our selves, the injustice of vio...

Life gives strength to passion; but passion in itself is not enough, with determination, persistency, tolerance and an undiluted decisiveness, passion becomes success and success becomes the story – Pink Ambition.   It is indeed a gift to know colours intimately and use it brilliantly, just like being able to establish one’s passion. It is also genius to be able to combine in unusaul manner colours many people never think possible to create exceptionally vibrant and fabulous designs and clothings.   Creative Fashion is without any doubt a painstakingly profession that one must developed an unequivocal passion for to be able to succeed in it. While painting the fashion world red is every designers dream, Deola Sagoe has indeed painted the whole of Africa red with her vibrant, lively, colourful, exceptional, and unusual contemporary design to present a unique vision and attitude for the modern woman.   Indeeed to achieve the “painting red” is often by mea...
