Episode notes

This week we’re changing it up and I’m sitting in the guest chair. In this special “podcast swap” episode of Side Hustle Pro, I’m sharing an interview from the podcast To Tell You The Truth with host and Podcast Moguls student Brittany Sharpton. We dive into the concept of self-imposed barriers and how they can prevent entrepreneurs, especially Black women, from realizing their full potential.

In this episode I share:

My journey to reclaiming my power in spaces where Black women aren’t usually empowered- and why I’m constantly reminding myself that I’m that girl
Steps to take to combat the fear and negative self-talk that often creep in
What feeds my soul and the lessons I’m learning every day- even as a seasoned entrepreneur
Insights from my Podcast Moguls course and how I’ve seen Brittany grow after being a student
