Preparing for Death (Part 1)
September 25, 2020 04:00 - 19 minutes - 13.4 MBIn the last days of my mom’s life, it was up to me to choose her course of treatment. To say it was an emotional time is an understatement. But what ended up being the most helpful to me was the fact that I had had countless conversations with her about life and how she wanted to live. Because of these important conversations, I was confident in the medical decisions I made for her when she was unable to make them for herself. Death. It can arrive slowly or suddenly, but it’s the inevitable...

Striking Out in Business (Part 2)
September 18, 2020 04:00 - 20 minutes - 14.5 MBI had been a photographer for years. Throughout high school and college, photography was a serious passion of mine. I even had a photography side hustle in college. But when I graduated and decided to go into the photography business myself, things changed. Suddenly, I didn’t enjoy it anymore. As soon as I put a monetary value on my craft, as soon as I had to answer to demanding clients, I no longer wanted to take photos. And I actually ended up selling all my photography equipment. Like I ...
Striking Out in Business (Part 1)
September 15, 2020 04:00 - 19 minutes - 13.7 MBYou know you’re an entrepreneur at heart when…you’re a kid and try to sell your pencil shavings at school. Or when you fill up your time off with side gigs. Or when you can remember the exact reason why you failed that eighth-grade business assignment (not enough inventory) but are still able to describe how popular the product was. Is this something you can relate to? The thing is, the reason I remember why I failed that assignment is because I learned a really important lesson about runn...
Supporting Black Businesses
September 11, 2020 04:00 - 15 minutes - 10.4 MBThe average dollar earned in the Asian community stays there for 30 days. In the Jewish community, it’s 20 days, and in the white community, it’s 17 days. Do you know how long the average dollar stays in the Black community? Six hours. There’s a lot behind that number: investment, infrastructure, history, marketing. But the fact is we need to support our community businesses now more than ever. Small businesses are hurting in the midst of this pandemic, and it is on us to see them through....
Don't Shrink Your Way to Wealth
September 08, 2020 04:00 - 11 minutes - 8.1 MBHow many of you have tried to eat your way to financial security with beans, rice, and ramen noodles? You think, “If I only ate really cheap food, I’d be rich.” Yeah, me too. It’s that same debunked concept that if we just stopped buying lattes and avocado toast, we’d all be homeowners by now, right? Frankly, that’s a pretty warped perspective about growing wealth, and a girl can only go so long with the same one or two meals every day! The big financial gurus out there will tell you to c...

Know Your Worth (Part 1)
September 01, 2020 04:00 - 13 minutes - 8.99 MBIt’s considered taboo. People say it’s rude to talk about. It might seem nosy or weird or insensitive. And it feels very personal. Yup. I’m talking about salary. But let me ask you this: if we don’t talk about it, how do we grow it? Women, by nature, are more caring, so we tend to take the opportunities we’re offered and be grateful for them. This means we often don’t negotiate when entering a new job or position, leaving money on the table. That pay we settle for essentially stalls our w...
Cast a Vision. Make it Plain.
August 28, 2020 04:00 - 19 minutes - 13.4 MBAnyone else out there miss a deadline? Were you headed toward a goal, full speed ahead, achieving your dreams… then hit a wall? Me too. It’s human. So, I made a plan. Ten years ago, I made a vision board about my life and my career -- just a ritual I started doing every year. But back then I had no idea that the series of articles and photos I pasted together, the goals I wrote on the back of the board, would actually come true. Listen. If you want to make something happen, you need to v...
Health = Wealth
August 25, 2020 04:00 - 14 minutes - 9.81 MBEver since quarantine started (and let’s be honest: even before that), my fitness has fallen off the to-do list. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about staying in shape. But with gyms closed and so much going on in the world, my fitness just hasn’t felt like the most important thing. But then I got to thinking about everyone who’s struggling with their health right now. I thought about my mom who passed away at 50 years old. I thought about the people whose physical strength has held them back ...

Fortune Sides With Those Who Dare
August 21, 2020 04:00 - 19 minutes - 13.5 MBI had spent 15 years dreaming up a life for myself, and in the moment that it was finally becoming a reality, I lost it. I failed. But that’s just the thing. You can fail in an instant. What matters is what you do next. This year, I have doubled my income. I purchased new properties and I run multiple businesses. I am my own boss, and I am more energized than ever to grow my wealth and build my legacy. In episode 5 of the Black Girl Fly podcast, Tenisha and I recount some of our hardest...
