RISE & DEFY | Funding Your Purpose

This month, we’re thrilled to welcome Ife Oyelade, a digital transformation leader and strategic growth architect, for our final Rise & Defy Workshop of 2025.

In her session, “Funding Your Purpose,” Ife will guide us beyond just “finding” passion — to truly investing in it.

She’ll show us how purpose isn’t discovered overnight — it’s built through consistent action, focus, and discipline.

Key Takeaways:
⚡ Purpose grows through motion, not perfection.
⏰ You fund your purpose with time, focus, and habits — not just money.
🌱 Small, consistent steps create lasting impact.

🎥 Online Workshop: Wednesday, November 27
🕘 9 AM – 11 AM

✨ Did you know?

1 in 3 students run a side hustle while in college — and many of them start with less than $500!

From freelancing and tutoring to reselling clothes or baking up something sweet, side hustles aren’t just about extra cash — they’re about building skills, testing ideas, and creating opportunities.

At the Centre for Entrepreneurship, we’re here to help you turn that side hustle into something even bigger (if that’s your goal 😉).

👀 What’s YOUR side hustle (or dream hustle)? Drop it in the comments — we’d love to hear it!

Trying to level up your business but keep getting dragged back by… perfectionism? 👀

We get it. You want everything to be flawless before you launch, post, sell, or scale. But here’s the truth: waiting for perfect often means waiting forever ⏳.

Entrepreneurship is about progress, not perfection. 🚀 Every messy first draft, slightly awkward pitch, or “oops, I learned something” moment is actually you moving forward.

That’s why we’re kicking off our Rise and DEFY Workshop Series with Business Coach Jodi Laking, who’s going to help you set goals you can actually achieve (without waiting for the stars to align ✨).
