After the resounding success of its inaugural edition, The Bloom Conversations with Sola returned for its highly anticipated 2.0 edition which took place at ProvidusBank building in Lekki Lagos, recently.
This year, the exclusive gathering brought together 35 corporate women in a safe, closed-door setting to explore the challenges of balancing life, career, family, and relationships.
The intimate session provided a platform for participants to share their stories, learn practical strategies, and gain valuable insights on blooming in every aspect of their lives.
The event builds on the foundation laid in April 2023, when Oluwasola Obagbemi, the convener of The Bloom Conversations with Sola, launched the initiative with 30 phenomenal women from diverse industries.
At the inaugural session, Sola shared her personal and professional journey, highlighting life lessons that have shaped her success. The atmosphere encouraged participants to share openly, creating a supportive space for growth and mutual encouragement.

“This second edition is about going deeper,” Sola shared during her address. “It’s about tackling the unspoken questions women often face, building resilience, and fostering a network of support where women can openly share and grow together. Traditional conferences, summits and webinars often lack the intimacy required for vulnerability and actionable problem-solving. The Bloom Conversations with Sola breaks those barriers, creating a space where women can connect, share, and win together.”
The 2.0 edition featured two inspiring speakers: Mrs. Folake Soetan, CEO of Ikeja Electric, who offered practical guidance on personal development in the workplace, goal setting, and nurturing relationships across life’s domains.
