This episode explores how Black entrepreneurs are redefining success beyond simply escaping toxic corporate environments. Inspired by Ikeia Salley’s advocacy, we discuss the unique systemic barriers Black professionals face when starting businesses, the essential role of community support, and the importance of aligning work with personal values. Discover how building networks, accessing mentorship, and prioritizing collective advancement can transform not just individual journeys, but entire communities. Join us as we challenge oversimplified narratives and celebrate the legacy of support that Black women entrepreneurs are creating for future generations.
