#235 Over the last decade, ‘girlboss’ culture has convinced us that we’re superwomen who can have it together all of the time. But that’s not always the reality, and we’re ready for open conversations that embrace the REAL qualities that lead to success!

Today, we’re welcoming award-winning journalist, entrepreneur, and author of “Simplify The Hustle,” Sherrell Dorsey for an in-depth conversation on how to simplify your approach to success through reframing productivity, prioritizing self-care, and creating space for yourself to win and reach your goals beyond just hard work.

We Also Talk About…

  • Sherrell’s journey finding balance as a serial entrepreneur
  • The keys to building and distributing wealth amongst communities
  • First-generation entrepreneurship and the challenges of building a business from the ground up
  • The difference between leveling up and selling out
  • Intention-setting and how to practice self-care as an entrepreneur
