In this empowering episode, we explore the profound role that confidence plays in unlocking success, particularly for Black and Brown generational change-makers. I share my personal journey from struggling with self-doubt and a speech impediment to embracing my true, authentic confidence.

We also discuss the importance of creating safe, intentional spaces where aspiring entrepreneurs from marginalized communities can feel seen, supported, and empowered to pursue their dreams.

QUOTES:

"I know that some of you are also doubting who you are. Some of you are in [a] context where you unconsciously are shrinking and holding back parts of yourself because you don't feel safe to share." – Erika Brown
