Episode 103: Letting go of someone else’s dream, finding your purpose, and creating an inclusive culture for Black women with Watchen Nyanue (Founder & CEO of I Choose The Ladder)

Are you living someone else’s dream?  And you’re not sure how to find your own path? In this episode with Watchen Nyanue (Founder & CEO of I Choose The Ladder), we discuss: - How growing up as a refugee from Liberia helped her to move fearlessly through the world. - What you can do to always look for the upside. - How going to therapy every week can help you heal traumas and show up as the best version of you.  - What to do when you realize you’re living someone else’s dream, and how to find your purpose.  - How to use your rage against systemic discrimination to fight for justice and make a better world instead of letting it turn you into someone who you don’t want to be. - What you can do to hire and retain Black women and create an inclusive space where they feel seen, heard, and valued.
