Imagine making the decision to go into business for yourself. Imagine beginning the journey in early 2020. Charise M. Williams has spent much of her career working in the nonprofit sector. In early 2020 she decided to embrace entrepreneurship as a professional leadership coach. What Williams did not anticipate was the start of a global pandemic. Nonetheless she persisted and also wrote a book, The Joy of Thriving While Black. In adversity following the deaths of Ahmad Arbery, George Floyd, Brianna Taylor and too many others to mention, Williams decided that there were more Black stories to be told and she does so in this new book.
