We recently partnered up with The Pivot Series, a show focused on showcasing the stories of women entrepreneurs from Barbados who have transformed their side hustles into full-time jobs and well-known business owners willing to expand their territories and shoot for the stars.

This time The Pivot Series interviewed Nadia Wilkie, the woman behind Puff of Colour, Barbados’ largest private entertainment event, and Sky Deck Race Zone, the newest horse racing experience.

At first sight, Nadia might be perceived as a reserved and understated person, which are not the words we typically associate with event promoters, but don’t be fooled! Despite the first impression, this talented woman manages to operate quietly in the background to ensure the success of her events.

During the conversation, Nadia shared her own personal experiences working as an event promoter, the importance of relying on a trustworthy team, and the most important requirements needed in order to thrive in the challenging world of entertainment.

In her Pivot interview Nadia tells us how she deals with balancing her role as a mother with her obligations as a full-time employee, and the challenges behind building a brand and developing a vision while investing in herself and her family. You can watch the whole interview here:
