The Rooms You Put Yourself In Really Do Matter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hi friends,I have to tell you about Black Women Sell Live because I came back from this event with so much on my mind.This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend Black Women Sell Live by Ashley Kirkwood, and honestly, it was such a great experience. There was so much happening throughout the weekend, from the conversations and speakers to the people I met, and of course, the dancing and laughing that came with it.

Read excerpt
Hi Friends,I have been thinking about how much of building a business actually happens through other people.We often talk about ideas as though they exist in isolation. You have an idea, you build the product, you figure out the strategy, and you make it work.
