We had the good fortune of connecting with Allenbyba Teneilabe and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Allenbyba, any advice for those thinking about whether to keep going or to give up?
I know to keep going because I haven’t achieved the goals I planned to reach. As for giving up, I don’t know how to give up.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
I love being in a space where I am able to create content and product. Its my happy place and makes me feel alive! I’ve always been a creative person so being able to live through expression is a blessing because there was a time were I wasn’t able to do so for fear or being judged or considered “unserious” by my african parents lol. But now I don’t care and I enjoy what I do so much

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
ill take my visiting friend out for *Brunch at The garden room
We would go to
*The high museum for art inspiration
Grab dinner at
*Blue Cirque

and for activities during the week,
we’ll go hiking, skating and shopping

I would like to dedicate my shoutout to my family and friends for supporting me through out my business journey. My mother, my brothers, my boyfriend and supportive friend have all been there from the day I started. I’m so blessed to have them in my life.
