Self-sabotage often is something we continually overlook as we build, fund, and grow our businesses but is actually one of the most critical things we need to be aware of in this journey. That’s why episode 116 of the Melanin & Medicine Podcast is about how to overcome self-sabotaging your income & impact in social entrepreneurship!

The Stop Waiting, Start Creating Workshop is a FREE workshop where you will learn the basics of building and procuring funding for your practice as a social entrepreneur. Make sure you reserve your spot to see how focusing on serving those with highest-need can access more diverse funding streams.

In this episode, I’m sharing the importance of identifying where you may be self-sabotaging your business and how to fix it.

The 3 Most Important Ways Self-Sabotage Shows Up Are:

  • Not strategically networking both online and offline to build connections that can accelerate the progress of your work. 
  • Avoiding partnering with others who can help us build bigger and make an impact on more people.
  • Thinking we always have to bootstrap and fund everything ourselves instead of seeking funding that can take us further, faster. 

Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on empowering Black women in medicine and academia to find their purpose and achieve their vision.
