From Educator to Entrepreneur:
How To Leverage Your Education, Experience, & Passion Into Your Own Business (even while working full-time in higher ed)
What happens when a woman of color working full-time in higher education with an academic and professional background in mentoring research, student career development teaching, exploratory student academic advising and counseling, and a deep passion for work-life balance takes her skills from academia to the for-profit education world? I will share about my journey and lessons I’ve learned that participants can apply to their own entrepreneurial dreams. Participants that have ever considered pursuing their own coaching business, selling your services online, or are considering a career change, will leave feeling inspired and motivated to move forward with their dreams.
