I had the pleasure of speaking with today’s guest a writer, author, host of Working Overtime The Podcast, Christina Sloan. Christina is a strong African American woman who has given herself complete and total permission to go after her dreams, while still holding on a 9 to 5 job. She shares inspirational stories from other creators to inspire everyone no matter what stage in their life, to follow their dreams, and to design a life based on their own values and not societal expectations.
If you are a 9 to 5 worker who desires so much more in life, but not sure how you're gonna make it happen? Then you're definitely want to listen up for Christina’s story.
