Description

You’ve probably heard it before. Just focus on one thing. But what if your vision is bigger than one idea? For many Black entrepreneurs, building more than one business is not about being unfocused, it’s about honoring your full potential. Still, the pressure to niche down or choose one path can make you question if it’s even possible to do both without burning out.

In this episode, we sit down with Cristina Jerome, a creative entrepreneur and strategist who successfully manages two growing ventures. She runs a content strategy business while also leading Off Worque, a nonprofit social club centered on creating healthier relationships with work. Cristina opens up about what it takes to run multiple businesses with intention, how she protects her time and mental health, and why you don’t have to limit yourself to one lane in order to thrive. If you’re multi-passionate and trying to figure out how to make it all work, this episode is for you.

 

DURING THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:

  • How to balance multiple ventures while protecting your well-being\
  • What to build into your first business so it can support your second
  • How to delegate and outsource to free up your time and energy
  • What to look for when your mind and body are telling you it’s time to take a break
  • The key skills multi-passionate entrepreneurs need but don’t always develop
