Viking Lady Boss Interview (Part 1)

Inspired by being back in the neck of my woods and catching up with old and new friends I have decided to do a feature on 4 diverse Danish women who inspire me on different levels. They are 4 unique and distinct women when it comes to temper, careers, looks, lifestyle and backgrounds. They all have a few things in common though and that is a fantastic strength, a mature insightfulness , amazing energy, power, passion, tenacity and a unique creativity. Each woman is my friend and I am proud to say that they all epitomize the archetype of the lady-boss.

I’ve titulated this 4 part feature ‘The Viking Lady-Boss’ and I will post the 4 different interviews during the next few weeks.

First Lady-Boss up is Miss Nadia Temani, whom I’ve known since we were teenagers walking the catwalk together. Nadia is always on the go between London, Copenhagem, Australia, NYC and fate had it that we were in Copenhagen at the same time during fashion week where we met up for a coffee and a chat.

Recently, Nadia did a very cool shoot for the Danish publication FAT MAGAZINE with top photographer Henrik Bülow. The story is super provoking and current in the sense that nobody does this. Literally. This is a shoot that is so raw and daring and in a way so Danish. There is absolutely no retouch and Nadia is a rock star in my opinion for doing her thing and not giving a ‘bleep’ about what other people might think.

Without further ado, here is Lady Boss Nadia Temani and her shoot with FAT MAGAZINE

” A lady-boss is a woman who doesn’t put her fate in the hands of others. A woman who goes after what she wants and is not afraid to tell herself and the world, I deserve this!!! Most important a lady-boss is a woman who is not afraid to love and respect herself!” – Nadia Temani
