Today I’m back with three inspiring guests who are going to help you:

• Acknowledge that you have lot to offer in your career
• Question the role of excellence in your life
• And Reflect on how you take feedback and criticism

Let’s get into it

Today’s guest is Raphael Sofoluke who is an entrepreneur and the founder of the UK Black Business Show, an annual exhibition which highlights and promotes some of the amazing businesses founded by members of the Black community, and the Black Tech Achievement Awards. Raphael was highlighted in 2020 as one of Forbes “25 Leading Black British Business people to follow”.

In today’s episode we talk about creating high-quality experiences for your community, knowing what to ask for and when. We also get the ins and outs of what the potential barriers to entry are and how to overcome them.

Let’s go...

Be sure to check out Raphael’s book Twice As Hard which is available from all good bookstores.

We’ll come back to Rapahel in a few minutes. I want you to get to know Derek Owusu who is an award-winning writer, author and podcaster. He’s been busy working on his new book and has this to share today.

You might know this but I’ve known Derek for a few years when I used to produce his podcast Mostly Lit. I can definitely understand and relate to the challenges around accepting feedback and not taking it personally. You can check out Derek’s novel That Reminds Me in all major bookstores. Now back to the Raphael.

Before we wrap up, Here’s comedian Lolly Adefope with some must-hear advice that’ll.

That’s a wrap, thank you so much for listening. I hope this half an hour has made you think, reflect and contemplate what your next step should be.

I’d like to encourage you to think about one person who would benefit from the messages shared today and I’d love for you to share this episode with them, right now! If you’d like to hear the extended interview with Sharon, all you have to do is screenshot and share this episode to your Instagram stories and tag @contentisqueenhq.

Until next time…. Byeeee
