Combining your daily 9-5 job with a business of your own is an almost impossible herculean task, but like they say, nothing is absolutely impossible, especially, if you have a strong passion for what to do, it seems more like you enjoying your hobby and you being paid for it.

 The CEO of Bymbyzleevents, (that's a mouthful,lol!) did it, and we can only wonder how, well, wonder no more. She had an exclusive with KMB and we are bringing the excerpts below:
