Description

Welcome back to another great episode of the Dear BLK CEO Podcast.

It’s time to stop hiding what you do and be present and unapologetic about it. I can’t think of a better example of this than Brittani Hunter’s story. Brittani is a culture-driven, media-tech entrepreneur that’s passionate about building products that impact, educate, and elevate the Black community. Recently, she launched the platform Mogul Millennial to help Black entrepreneurs and professionals advance in their careers through smart, actionable content, resources, and experiences. This startup has quickly grown to become a leading voice for professionals looking to elevate their careers and/or businesses and as CEO and Founder, Brittani has been listed on the Forbes #Next1000, LinkedIn Top Voice, and PVAMU 40 Under 40 list, in recognition of her incredible work.

Tweetable Quotes:

“You should be unapologetic about what you do, you shouldn’t have to hide it - and I feel like if you’re at a place where you have to hide it, then you’re probably not at the right place!” - Brittani Hunter 

“I felt like this was something that was created for me to do. So I think prayer, bringing in friends that also are believers, was something that was needed in my journey for sure.” - Brittani Hunter

“If you’re not properly setting goals or if you don’t have any KPI’s for your business, then I don’t see how you can properly scale it because you don’t have a clear direction of where you’re at or where you’re going.” - Brittani Hunter
