Originally I got to know Kipuwex company as I was representing international investors who were looking for Finnish outstanding medtech companies for A round. I\u2019m very grateful for Kipuwex and CEO Marko H\u00f6yn\u00e4l\u00e4, that I was recognized of my hardwork and it lead to Marketing Manager position in the company. I have huge responsibility to spread awareness of Kipuwex globally.

He is known as a Founder of FUBU, CEO of Shark Tank USA and as a Global Ambassador for Entrepreneurship nominated by President Obama. He is also New York Times best selling author. My volunteer work has included social media marketing for his books, \u201cRise and Grind\u201d and \u201cPowershift\u201d. Towards that, we Ambassadors, have gained mentoring and education. Greatest mentor for me has been Martin C.J. Mongiello, former Chef for the past 5 Presidents in USA, CEO of Presidential Service Center and Presidential Culinary Museum, he is also star and host of Inside the Presidents Cabinet history Television series, and author as well. His daily support and mentoring has been priceless during past 2 years, which I\u2019m forever grateful for.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the challenges to become a female entrepreneur?<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m Founder of The Happy Ambassador concept for kids, I used to be <a href=\"https:\/\/ditech.media\/experts\/women-entrepreneurship-how-to-start-andjelka-ducic\/\">entrepreneur<\/a>, that\u2019s why I have entrepreneurial mindset. Being female entrepreneur is hard, but I\u2019m very grateful for the learnings on the way. I did take the company down, as it contained so much development work, income &amp; outcome was not in balance. The best thing, which I gained was wide experience and outstanding international network. Due to struggles I have had, my feets are firmly on the ground, I know the reality, how hard business is, even it\u2019s made with the heart. Challenges are numerous, but related to especially female entrepreneurs, I think gaining credibility it\u2019s challenging.<\/p>\n<p>Also balancing with home and work life is challenge, burn out is too common and variety of health problems due to continuous stress.<\/p>\n<h3>What do you do when the world is at risk of falling apart \u2014 and your business along with it?<\/h3>\n<p>As I have faced numerous severe struggles and my own world has fell apart, in small pieces. Taking care of our own health, psychical and mental is the key issue to survive challenges in life. Never give up attitude, persistance are important. I have developed my coping methods during the years. Personally I don\u2019t like to think far, this is my coping method for difficult times. Sometimes I was thinking only one hour by one hour and how I can make it to be good. Small actions leads to <a href=\"https:\/\/ditech.media\/experts\/interview-with-gagana-sharavi\/\">better future<\/a>, but it\u2019s important to take and make actions. Also it\u2019s important to learn to deal with difficulties, in a constructive way. When business fails, like my own business did with The Happy Ambassador. It\u2019s not end of the world, even it may feel like it. The best teachings in life comes in hard way. There\u2019s no successful people with easy path. It takes a lot to form your own foundation, to be strong, flexible and wise enough. There\u2019s multiple ways to succeed, it depends what you deside, how you react and how much you are willing to try. We all have struggles in our life, but I have learned to cope with them,and no matter of challenges I can say I have peaceful mind and I feel very happy, always believing in better future. It has not always been like this, I have always worked a lot, but mostly I have worked on myself as I needed to survive from fallings. Therefore it\u2019s a huge importance for me to represent Kipuwex <a href=\"https:\/\/ditech.media\/news\/a-womans-place-in-modern-healthcare\/\">healthcare<\/a> solutions and to improve healthcare globally as health is our wealth.<\/p>\n<h3>How to develop the next generation of women leaders?<\/h3>\n<p>I think softskills plays a huge role. If you want to be leader, it means you need to learn to be human expert. Softskills should be added to education no matter of the business sector, also building good self-confident is essential. To believe in yourself, to value yourself as your own personality is your greatest asset.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the one piece of advice you find yourself repeating over and over again to fellow women entrepreneurs?<\/h3>\n<p>Try to minimize negative people around you, surround yourself with positive people, whom you can learn from, who you can trust, who support and value you, just the way you are. That\u2019s how I feel with our fantastic Kipuwex team!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can you tell me a bit about your background and your current role?
