Shift from consumer to producer

In Episode 2, you’ll hear my behind-the-scenes conversation with high schoolers and mentors from the Global Ties Detroit virtual Pan Africa Youth Leadership Program (PAYLP). These high-schoolers and mentors were from the Central African Republic, Chad, Guinea, and Togo. The group was Francophone and so my conversation was held simultaneously through French interpretation in a Zoom exchange. I share with you life lessons I learned along my journey from Unemployed to Employer and how I’ve been able to impact communities around the world as a private sector business owner committed to economic development in developing countries. If you’ve found yourself feeling stuck on your journey in life or need a conscious shift on how to navigate roadblocks personally or professionally, this episode is for you.
