This week I talk with Joi Venison and we chat about how she became a successful business woman growing several multi- million dollar business. What it was like growing up in Compton CA, being a black woman and excelling in her career.
We discuss:
-What being straight out of Compton is really like
-"Your black, so your already behind the 8 ball. You've got to be better than everyone else to succeed."
-Her story and how she rose to the top of her class in law school while her undergrad GPA was less than stellar.
-She saw how white privileged kids in law school already had an advantage and that made her want that even more for her own kids.
-How she graduated top 13% of her class and passed the bar exam the first time
-Hurricane Katrina hits and she has to make a shift
-"Success is not a destination, its a journey"
-How she went from the law business to the hair business
-What is was like learning everything about the hair business
