Here's Her Signature Talks
Felt Sense Of Success
It's no secret, you want to succeed in your business. For our entire lives, we Black and Brown women have adhered to a certain model of what it means to be successful. You're constantly identifying goals, objectives, and milestones. You're also using a range of metrics to "assess" your progress. What has it really gotten you? What if you measured success in a way that doesn't involve using all of these tools. Rather something more simple and easier to work with than you've been led to believe? This is what Gigi discusses in this talk.
How to truly be with others without being down and out yourself?
As entrepreneurs, you're creating services and products that help others to improve their quality of life. The biggest challenge you face is doing this in a way that doesn't sacrifice your wellbeing. Sadly, Black and Brown women have a legacy of helping and supporting others to our own detriment. What is truly needed and desired for you to support others and stay sane? What does it mean to support others without sacrificing your desires? What does it mean to support others without becoming the enemy? Gigi shares how you can achieve this in this talk.
Gigi can customized her talks based on your needs and wants.
