Full biography of Tiwa (Tiwalola) Ogunlesi
Tiwalola Ogunlesi’s background
After struggling with low-self esteem throughout her teenage years, she’s now on a mission to transform the lives of women and girls all over the world. Tiwalola founded Confident and Killing It in 2017 as a response to the generation cycle of low self-esteem amongst women and girls. A Dove study shows that only 4% of women around the world consider themselves beautiful and so Tiwa has made it her mission to champion a social movement that inspires women to love and believe in their whole self.
A positive and powerful voice in the midst of negativity, Tiwalola has been praised for her valuable insights and thoughtful content on topics such as becoming confident, overcoming fear and insecurities, dealing with imposter syndrome, mental health, wellbeing and entrepreneurship. She is known as a captivating speaker who understands how to infuse self-development and positive psychology with fun and inspiring stories that relate to millennials. Recently she has delivered interactive experiences for organisations such as Youtube, Morgan Stanley, Facebook and Google.
So far, she’s equipped over 3000 women in London, Lagos, New York, Kigali and Johannesburg at The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy For Girls with the tools and knowledge they need to be confident.

The magic of Tiwa is that she uses simple and memorable techniques that helps you shift your mindset and train your brain to consciously engage with positive thoughts. She is energetic and relatable, which makes women feel comfortable enough to share and take forward knowledge to help others in their lives.'

Her positive, no nonsense approach was both relatable and hugely impact at all levels. The gems she shared will not be forgotten, thank you Tiwa.'

'Tiwa brought the house down, delivering a sellout event to 350+ attendees via a webinar for General Assembly's community of creatives. She had created an incredible presentation around ’Owning Your Story: How To Speak Up and Own Your Accomplishments’ which was delivered exceptionally well. This provided tools and tips to help quieten the voice of self-criticism and fear so we can stop sabotaging ourselves and feeling like a fraud.'

'Tiwa delivered workshops on eliminating limiting beliefs and being confident, as part of our leadership conference for International Women’s Day. Tiwa gave a fantastic practical session which really showed her talent for coaching and supporting women to be the best version of themselves. She was enthusiastic, engaging and provocative, triggering attendees to really come out of their comfort zones and conquer fears which were holding them back in their careers.
