Educational Moment: Who Taught Me What to Expect?
Description: You know you’re capable of more—but what if the lessons that taught you to silence your voice, undercharge for your brilliance, and overdeliver to prove your worth are costing you clients, revenue, visibility, and opportunities to scale? As Black women in business, we can work relentlessly while remaining overworked, underpaid, overlooked, or stuck below our potential. In Who Taught Me What to Expect?, you’ll begin uncovering the hidden patterns and systems of oppression that may be holding your business back—and discover what needs to to change for you to thrive.
