Takia McClendon is a running coach, personal trainer, and activist on a mission to debunk diet and fitness myths. As co-founder of City Fit Girls, a Philadelphia-based fitness and running community that aims to empower people to get moving on their own, Takia is constantly seeking ways to use running as an act of resistance for people who don’t have access to boutique studios and other pricey fitness resources. 

Traditionally, the face of running in this country is white and skinny. City Fit Girls challenges the culture of the sport simply by BEING. The initiative started through Takia and her co-founder’s willingness to share their own fitness journeys online. The more they shared, the more people wanted to be apart. Seeing a need to impact public health outcomes through overall fitness (physical and mental), City Fit Girls was born. 

To learn more about Takia and her virtual strength club options, follow her on IG @TakiaMcClendon . Ready to get moving in your city? Follow @CityFitGirls or visit their website www.cityfitgirls.com for more information on getting connected to a local chapter.

So, you’ve reached the point in your entrepreneurial journey where you need help to function effectively. You find the perfect candidates, offer them the job, onboard them and they’re ready to get to work...and get paid. 

This week we discuss the two classifications of people who do work for you - independent contractors and employees. It is in the best interest of the employer to keep as many contractors on their team as they can. Employees tend to be more expensive, as they’re eligible for benefits (health insurance, retirement, stipends, and other perks) in addition to their agreed upon base pay. Even though contractors are easier to pay than employees, you can’t just classify everyone as such simply because it’s less taxing, literally and figuratively. 

Questions to ask in making the determination:

•Does your company control or have the right to control over when and how the worker does the job?⁣⁣
• Does the company require that the worker show up to perform the work at a specific site or office location?⁣⁣

• Will the worker receive benefits?⁣⁣
• Is the work engaged for a specific time period?⁣⁣
• Is the worker an individual or a business (including LLCs)?⁣⁣
• Can the worker take on other work outside of the work your company is requesting?⁣⁣

In our current social climate, the conversation around advocacy and allyship are on-trend across professional and personal spaces alike. At some point, most of us have probably had to carry the burden of serving as the BIPOC spokesperson to people in our network who say, “I want to support, but don’t know what I can do”. 

Well, diversity and inclusion strategist, Amber Cabral, has literally written the book on what to do. Allies and Advocates: Creating an Inclusive and Equitable Culture provides a practical take on how to effectively occupy both spaces and fight for fair on all fronts. We sat down with her to talk all things diversity, equity and inclusion related.

Allies and Advocates is a wrecking ball, knocking down barriers in the largely white, largely male publishing world, and affirming that black talent is worth investing in. You can order your copy on Amazon here . Visit ambercabral.com for all things Amber Cabral and find her on Instagram and Twitter as @BamCabral.

“So Keila, what’s the difference between an accountant and a bookkeeper, and which one do I actually need?” This is a question that I’m asked almost every day both on and offline and since both accounting and bookkeeping play important roles in maintaining pristine financial records, we’ll be breaking it all down in this week’s episode and learning:

• The job functions and differences of both accountants and bookkeepers.
• What questions to ask your bookkeeper and/or accountant to fully understand how your business is running financially.
• Which service provider will be able to advise you on how to best spend any surplus funds you may come into. 

Always remember, financial reporting accuracy does matter when running a business. After you dive into this episode, tell us what you think!

Contrary to popular opinion, Millennials aren't the only ones doing side work and following their dreams, Baby Boomers are emerging as entrepreneurial spirits as well!

This week, we get to hear from Generation X firsthand through a reluctant representative -- my mom. As a Program Analyst for the CDC she has a deep passion for African American genealogy research and shares:

• Her experience discovering her passion

• How to create opportunities to monetize it

• The sometimes harsh realities that come with balancing full-time work and your passion project, plus more!

I truly believe that our ancestors are calling out for their stories to be told. They lived through a time where they couldn’t speak for themselves, so we are in a unique position to speak for them by both knowing and sharing their stories.
