Stop shoulding on yourself
How long have you been putting off that thing you want to do? What if you just started today?
That’s the message Devonnae Williams, my first guest of season 3, wants to share. Whether she’s helping companies define their brands and perfect their websites or educating creators on YouTube, she is all in and loving it. Join our conversation to hear what Devonnae loves about connecting with people, how she chases the spark that inspires her work, and what we both can’t stand about hustle culture.

- The many facets of Devonnae and how she is learning about them.
