If you would like to make more money and continue to be successful in your nine-to-five job, you will like this episode.
Stephen A. Hart, joins me to share how you can build your personal brand, generate more income, and build your career.
He shares his perspective as a Black man from Jamaica and explains how we each have a unique background that can be a powerful tool to help us stand out from the crowd.
We get personal as we talk about the joys and challenges of life, finding purpose, and how therapy might change your career and your life.
And, our conversation is about much more than making money. We focus on how to serve people using the gifts we’ve been given and the skills and experience we’ve developed throughout our lives.
