I think a lot of us get really enamored with our hobbies. Now, hobbies can turn into businesses. Hopefully, you can turn something that you really enjoy doing into something that makes you money. But if someone's not buying it, it's a hobby. So how do you find that out before you tap into your 401k? Your background is actually scientific. You trained as an epidemiologist at Yale. How does that relate to all of this? And does that epidemiology background somehow help you as an entrepreneur?
Season 3 of The Relentless is all about moving fearlessly. We’re kicking things off with two guests who not only embody that mindset, they’re growing businesses in ways that also empower their communities.
First, we talk to Kathryn Finney, a venture capitalist, author, entrepreneur, and one of the first Black women to have a successful seven-figure startup exit. Finney shares insights she gained on her journey from epidemiologist to an influential woman in tech, and discusses her commitment to investing in her own communities of Black entrepreneurs and underrepresented groups.
Later in the show, we’ll hear CENTURY 21® Broker Vicki Monteagudo talk about the entrepreneurial strategies she used to grow a thriving brokerage in her own Tri-Cities community.
Guests
Kathryn Finney: Founder & Managing General Partner of Genius Guild and author of Build the Damn Thing
Vicki Monteagudo: Owner & Designated Broker of CENTURY 21 Tri-Cities
