WHO WE ARE

behind the scenes & beyond

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to provide a platform for all women across the globe. Our aim is to inform, educate, provide insight and promote the cultivating of potential. The Atana Women platform helps women make the best and most well informed decisions at every stage of their lives helping them bring out their very best. This is done through providing information, resource and knowledge across health, career, education, lifestyle parenting, relationships and so much more.

OUR NETWORKS

ATANA MUMS

In 2017 Atana Mums was founded as a private international peer-to-peer learning and advisory group for mothers and mothers-to-be.
The idea was to form a sisterhood from which each woman could acquire knowledge from one and other’s experiences without having to go through the same obstacles they may have faced. Now, Atana Mums boasts of women across the globe including; Ghana, Nigeria, UAE, UK, Belgium, France, Germany, USA and expanding all the time.  The  structured format of Atana Mum is like none other, with set topics provided daily;  which are thoroughly discussed and dissected by members of the group There are a number of initiatives; including the promoting of Atana women entrepreneurship, regular international meet-ups, a dedicated day each week focused on promoting health and well-being, and charitable exploits aimed at making a difference in the lives of underprivileged new mothers.

ATANA WOMEN HIVE

After the success of Atana Mum international platform we came to realisation that all women needed a sisterhood. A place to belong, to feel loved, a place to be nourished and nurtured. With this in mind we developed the Atana Women Hive (AWH). The aim of the AWH is to provide a cohesive network of elite women who through experience share can help each other become better versions of themselves. Our platform should inspire women to acquire knowledge they may struggle to gain otherwise. Atana Women Hive positively and holistically impact all members to provide them with all the tools they require to reach their fullest potential
