Categories:
Today’s guest on the podcast is Marty McDonald and we are talking about side hustles and entrepreneurship. ABOUT MARTY MCDONALD: Marty is a side-hustler turned CEO of Boss Women Media. Like many, she wants to live her best life so she decided to leap after her dreams of creating a community of empowerment, change, and freedom after an 11-year corporate career with various fortune 500 companies. She took an idea based on connection and turned it into a movement including the multi-city Black Girl Magic Tour, the annual Boss Woman of the Year Summit, and a loyal community of more than 100,000 women. Marty’s plan is to continue to expand the growth of the community of women she is building and to help them empower one another through connection, networking, and workshops. She knows that most women are allowing fear to hold them back from accomplishing the goals they desperately want to achieve so now she is on a mission to connect with women who want more, women who have big goals, big dreams and are chasing them every single day. As part of her pivot in this season, she has launched the Black Girl Magic 2 Day Digital Summit taking place on August 15th and 16th 2020 and you can learn more about that on bosswomen.org when it’s announced soon.
