🎙️ From Burnout to Business: Leadership Lessons from the Ground Up 💼✨
Welcome back to Leadership + with Dr. G—where real stories meet real strategy. I’m your host, Dr. Shernette Grant, and today’s episode is a powerful reminder that sometimes burnout isn’t the end—it’s the beginning. 💥
🔑 Meet Winsome Brown—former corporate accountant turned Co-Founder of Lean on Dee Senior Home Care Services. After 20 years in the corporate grind, a buyout became her breakthrough. No healthcare background, no glam startup story—just purpose, grit, and vision.
In this episode, we dive deep into:✅ Building a business from nothing
✅ Leading without a title
✅ Turning passion into a plan
✅ Scaling smart—even when resources are tight
🔥 Winsome’s story is raw, real, and packed with lessons every leader needs—especially if you're starting from scratch, pivoting careers, or leading in high-pressure environments.
💡 Here's the truth: Entrepreneurship isn’t always Instagram-worthy. It’s late nights, tough calls, and building systems no one claps for. But if you stay the course—your mission becomes your movement.
