With over 20 years of experience, Omolola's journey from a brand representative for a global makeup label in Nigeria to the founder of a premier beauty tradeshow is a story of passion and empowerment.

Omolola discusses evolving beauty trends in Africa, the challenges entrepreneurs face, and her journey's key milestones.
Co-host Omolola and Seyi are back on the podcast reminiscing about what boarding school in Nigeria was like for the both of them.
Omolola Ijeoma Ogunyemi's novel Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions: A Novel in Interlocking Stories (Amistad 2022), is a moving and unforgettable collection of stories that span a lifetime. Four young girls rebel against a boarding school principal and the aftermath stays with them throughout their lives in this complex weaving of relationships and customs. Stories about immigration, powerful mothers and strong-willed daughters lead into stories about raising boys, searching for home, and seeking happiness. Ogunyemi references Nigerian history and traditions prior to the changes enforced by the missionaries, and considers a dystopian future, but the friends continue to love and count on each other across the years and the miles. Omolola Ijeoma Ogunyemi was born and raised in Ibadan, Nigeria. A finalist for the 2009 PEN/Studzinski Award, her stories have been published in New Writing from Africa 2009 (a collection of PEN/Studzinski Award finalists' stories), Ploughshares, and mentioned in The Best American Short Stories 2018. Her poetry has appeared in the Massachusetts Review, the Indiana Review and Wasafiri. She graduated from Barnard and UPenn with bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in computer science. Omolola is a Professor of Preventive and Social Medicine at Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science in South Los Angeles, where she teaches and conducts research on using biomedical informatics to reduce health disparities. Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions, her first book, was selected as a New York Times Editors Choice (October 20, 2022), made The New Yorker's list of "Best Books of 2022 So Far," was a Los Angeles Public Library pick for "Best of 2022: Fiction," and was the October 2022 selection for Roxane Gay's Audacious Book Club with Literati. Omolola lives in California with her husband and loves to try out new restaurants, especially fusion cuisine. G.P.

This week I sat down with Omolola and examined heart-mind alignment in business. Omolola Adekeye is a lawyer, a human resource professional, an actress and mother of two sons and a daughter. Almost two years ago, she started a journey of self transformation which is intentional and purposeful. She has learned that she is an empath, loves gardening, and the effects of emotions on the wellbeing of our body, soul and spirit. As a business owner she brings her passion for life and centers her business on gratitude, compassion and success. She emboldens women to take full control of their financial journey and chart the bath to a healthy and wealthy lifestyle by removing the limiting beliefs and inner trauma that create mental blocks. She also helps financially savvy women take their wealth to the next level with innovative strategies.

We talk with two emerging feminist novelists from the African continent, Omolola Ijeoma Ogunyemi and NoViolet Bulaweyo. The post Omolola Ogunyemi, JOLLOF RICE AND OTHER REVOLUTIONS & Noviolet Bulaweyo, GLORY appeared first on Writer's Voice.
Omolola is a biomedical informatician and writer. Biomedical informatics is a relatively new and exciting field that studies how to effectively acquire, store, communicate and transform biomedical data, information and knowledge to produce insights that can be acted upon to improve human health. The professional society for US-based informaticians is the American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA). Omolola is an elected Fellow of the American College of Medical Informatics. Her research examines how artificial intelligence (AI) and telehealth can be used to improve healthcare in medically underserved and under-resourced settings. Even though she was drawn to math and science at an early age, Omolola was always a voracious reader; her mother taught African and African-American literature at the University of Ibadan in Nigeria and so there were hundreds of intriguing books jammed into bookshelves around her house. Bored with her Enid Blyton collection, at age ten, she switched to reading James Baldwin, Flora Nwapa, Richard Wright, & similar authors. Although she was too young to understand much of what she was reading, the books opened up fascinating new worlds and fostered an unquenchable curiosity about different people and places. Omolola was born and raised in Ibadan, Nigeria. She now lives in Los Angeles, California with her husband. Her short story, “Area Boy Rescue” was a finalist for the 2009 PEN/Studzinski Literary Award. It appears in the collection, New Writing from Africa 2009. Her short story, “Jollof Rice and Revolutions” appeared in Ploughshares in 2017 and was named to the list of “Other Distinguished Stories of 2017” in The Best American Short Stories 2018. In September 2022, her first book, a novel in stories, “Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions” was published in North America by Amistad Books, an imprint of HarperCollins. It will also be published by Trapeze Books, an imprint of Hachette's Orion, in the United Kingdom and much of the Commonwealth. Omolola is also a part of the Miami Book Fair in November. Visit their website for details.
About the Book: Nonso, Remi, Aisha, and Solape meet as young, impressionable students at an all-girls boarding school, quickly forming a lifetime bond when they stand up to an older girl's attempt at hazing. Their sisterhood is soon challenged, however, when they participate in a school rebellion, the uprising causing repercussions that will forever change their lives. Traversing Nigeria, Europe, and America, spanning a century and a half, and showcasing the women and men who shaped these young girl's lives, Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions offers a window into the world of these accomplished Nigerian women, illuminating their trials and tribulations as they attempt to control their destinies. Nonso's step-grandmother, Adaoma, faced with infertility, takes matters into her hands when she amasses a fortune, acquiring a wife to create a family of her own. Decades later, Nonso also grapples with fertility issues after she moves to the United States and falls in love with an African-American man. Remi's future husband, Segun, has an encounter with the police in the Bronx; but his strength, and the lessons he learned from his father, help him carry on. He offers support to Remi through her traumatic struggles with her father. Aisha can't seem to leave her guilt from the aftermath of the boarding school rebellion behind, letting it influence her career and relationship choices—until her son's life is on the line and she makes a momentous decision to redefine her legacy by saving him. Illuminating the ties of friendship, the tangled bonds of family, the isolation of being an immigrant, and the need for belonging, Jollof Rice and Other Revolutions offers a nuanced portrait of these women as they look back in their attempts to move forward.
