Melanin & Medicine Podcast

As black women, there is so much expected of us that we often burn out before we even have the opportunity to succeed to our highest potential. That’s why episode 97 of the Melanin & Medicine Podcast is about power moves for black women doctors to scale and succeed in entrepreneurship!

By the way, don't forget to apply to Passion to Profit, our 12-week business incubator with integrated coaching, classes & curricula that helps Black women doctors turn their passion to profit and become accomplished business owners within a safe, supportive community of other Black women physician- entrepreneurs.

In this episode of the Melanin & Medicine Podcast, I’m sharing the importance of protecting ourselves in society and career paths that undervalues us as black women and using these power moves to not only avoid burnout but to thrive in the process.
