Manage episode 435533139 series 1770619
Stepping out of your comfort zone, facing fear head-on, and taking risks are all part of the entrepreneurial journey—especially for Black entrepreneurs who often have to fight for every inch of success. We understand the weight these decisions carry, and that’s why this episode is dedicated to discussing the importance of embracing risk as a necessary component of growth and success.
In today’s solo episode with Monique T. Marshall, founder of Black to Business, we dive deep into what it really means to take risks in business. We’re not talking about reckless moves; we’re talking about the calculated risks that lead to growth, transformation, and new opportunities. As an entrepreneur, it’s easy to get caught up in the fear of failure, the desire for perfection, or the comfort of playing it safe. But playing it safe rarely leads to greatness. We know that from personal experience and the experiences of many successful entrepreneurs in our community.
Whether you’re struggling with self-doubt, feeling stuck in your current situation, or simply scared to make the next big move, this episode is for you. We’ll explore how to understand and overcome these fears, tap into your deeper “why,” and trust yourself enough to take that leap of faith. You’ll learn how to embrace discomfort, handle failure, and recognize the small signs that show you’re on the right path—even when the journey feels uncertain.
This episode is packed with actionable insights that will encourage you to take bold steps, make decisions with confidence, and ultimately grow both your business and yourself. Let’s push past those limits and start building the future you deserve.

The importance of knowing your “why” and how it fuels your entrepreneurial journey.
