Nana Konamah talks about wellness, mindfulness and authenticity in her YouTube series Get Your Life.
She holds a degree in Public Health from Columbia University and is married to Michael Bediako, which she balances with her passion project, Pure Persona by Nana, a natural product made of premium ingredients such as shea butter, coconut oil and honey, intended to help consumers reveal their personality through beautiful hair. She commits to taking regular ‘soul-care’ days, a time for her to reflect, connect, and check on herself and others.
Nana talks to Glamour about what it means to live your true self.
Glamour: You’re true to yourself, do what you’re passionate about and enjoy the success of your efforts. Tell us about yourself.
Nana Konamah: I’m still writing my story, all the while staying true to my values and my eternal desires, which is my greatest motivation.
