    Now The Leap Of Faith Feels Right: Charlene Speaks #OfftheDome

    If you think this episode advocates taking ill advised leaps of faith on your journey to becoming boss, you would be mistaken.  I believe we use God as an excuse when we don't do enough of the pre-work in life and simply wing it as we 'hope' for the best. That's my opinion, I'm sticking to it. Anywho, the pre-work is what makes the leap of faith feel right. Take a listen and you'll understand what I mean.

    Lillian Charles of Style Therapy on Showing Up in Your Life Confident, Fearless & Authentic

    Lillian Charles is one of several guests who lent their voice to a special StartUP & Thrive podcast series about self-care awareness. In this episode, I converse with Lillian, an Atlanta based stylist and client confidant, about how she's created the space to forgive her past self, appreciate her present self while planning for her future self. Lillian expresses how an authentic life is most important to her and coaching women is all she wants to do with her life... but in her way. While what Lillian refers to as 'Style Therapy' may not be the first thing one thinks of in terms of coaching, her approach to helping women find and glow (not just grow) into their confidence has changed the lives of many of the clients Lillian's worked with. Lillian believes how you show up in the world outwardly directly impacts what you manifest to show up for you. Take a listen to the full episode and Lillian's take on self-care. Lillian Charles is currently an ambassador and lifestyle evangelist for both Lululemon and #ChooseATL.

    Rachel Hill on Overcoming Anxiety to Become a Happy ExPat Influencer Living in South Africa

    When the Corporate America experience no longer works for you, what do you do? Mash on life's emergency brakes and backpack through Southeast Asia naturally right? Well that's just what Rachel Hill of RachelTravels did and for her, the gamble turned out to be the right move. From six figure salary earner living in posh apartments in New York then Philadelphia to world traveler, accidental travelpreneur and influencer Rachel shares her unexpected startup story that arguably began with being diagnosed with anxiety disorder and depression. With her backpack (and I imagine a map) in hand, Rachel sought answers to the burning question this podcast continues to pursue...."what does my fulfilled life look life"? In this episode Rachel and I talk about her travel experiences, new life as an expat living in South Africa, getting past her embarrassment to seek therapy, working with brands seeking multicultural influencer collaborations, helping future travel industry influencers break into the industry and her unwillingness to not try among other topics. If you are interested in leaving your job to create a more fulfilling version of your life and start a business, you'll learn a lot from Rachel's story and conversation with host Charlene Sanders. Enjoy this episode! P.S. If you've heard that done is better than perfect, please keep this in mind as we did experience a bit of audio quality issues at times while conducting the interview on the go. If you are REALLY tuned in, you'll barely notice it.

    Renee Barnes on Being an Irrevocably Unemployable Woman in Tech and Building From Scratch

    Charlene speaks with tech entrepreneur Renee Barnes, founder and CEO of ComplyTrain and VeraTrain about her experience in the Founder Institute Atlanta accelerator program and being irrevocably unemployable not wanting to work for anyone but herself. Renee opens up about watching her parents' work life which helped her decide how she wanted to create her own work life aspirations. In this episode Renee and I discuss how benefits offered by employers was never enough to draw her in as an employee and her inability to reconcile that her best skills and talents being used in an employee-based role would not be in service to her family but to an employer who would limit her compensation.  Other topics we discuss include building a product-based business from, the dangers of picking the wrong partner for your business and overcoming that separation and Renee's quest to provide HR compliance and training solutions for startups, entrepreneurs and small businesses. There's a lot you can glean from in this episode. Enjoy!

    Sheffie Robinson on the Smoke & Mirrors in Tech, Myths & The State of The Black Tech Ecosystem

    In this spirited episode Charlene speaks with tech veteran entrepreneur & founder, Sheffie Robinson about how to easily create your MVP, minimum viable product, teaching the lean startup method and the value of being a self-taught developer. We also take a deep dive into the shortcomings of supposed diversity and inclusion in the technology space. Sheffie speaks candidly on her thoughts about the state of the black tech ecosystem making an impassioned plea for all parties to connect more intentionally and often. Sheffie encourages us to do more work directly with small minority startups instead of ONLY choosing the Big tech silicon valley brands. An interesting admission from Sheffie is her wish to have failed far more than she did early on by taking far more calculated risks in spite of her fears of starting as a women in tech, an industry dominated by men. Sheffie gives props to tech titans UrbanGeekz, ThePLUG, Blavity, the Atlanta Black Tech ecosystem, Technologists of Color, Goodie Nation, Digital Undivided, Batunium Labs and Ascend 2020. Sheffie currently serves as founder & CEO of Touco Direct, managing director of Founder Institute, Atlanta Chapter along with founder and mentor of Bantunium Labs.
