Sis, did you know the most wealthy and powerful era in American history for Black People was right after the Emancipation Proclamation? Black People had a huge part in land ownership, political representation, and building wealth. As Dr. Venus gets everything in place to launch her tech company that will provide a pathway for Black creators, artists, and entrepreneurs, it's important to know these facts and believe in the power that Black Men and Women have in making money and excelling at business.
This week, Dr. Venus discusses the key to economic freedom through community and ownership rather than providing service. She talks about the vision of her new tech company, providing a space for Black creators to showcase their talents rather than waiting to be picked. Are you ready to believe in yourself and see how easy it is to manifest your millions? Tune in and let's discuss.
Key Takeaways:
[2:01] Calling all Black content creators, creative entrepreneurs, film, TV writers, and more! Dr. Venus is starting a tech company and she wants to invite you to get some skin in the game and be part of something big. She is committed to this company being a Black-owned business and interested in collaboration and those who would like to have equity in it.
[7:00] Money is the best thing and Dr. Venus has an almost decadent relationship to money. Money equals freedom and if you feel differently, who are you listening to? If you want to learn how easy it is to make money and overcome your limiting beliefs that you need White Men to give it to you, you are in the right place.
[10:14] Capitalism sets us up in a way that makes money the great equalizer, but Black people have been trained and rewarded for service-based jobs and for making the White Man rich. Now it's up to you to adapt and survive and thrive in a digital world.
[13:44] Black people are skilled at making money, we came out of the womb making it!
[15:01] It takes being brave to step out of your feelings and be willing to learn new things and believe in yourself fully.
[16:33] The more Black people stand with and for each other, the more we can build our path instead of relying on White Men to give us permission to prosper.
[18:06] If you don't invest in yourself, don't be looking for others to believe in you.
[20:23] Yes, it's been unfair and White people have been trifling and always are self-serving. They marched with us in the murder of George Floyd, but then 56% of White Women voted for Trump. Instead of fixating on this, use your energy to create something new and to help other Black voices rise.
[27:37] Dr. Venus is building a tech company that allows Black Men and Women, POC, and allies to build something together and to be part of an emerging industry that isn't run or owned by White people.
[38:26] Allies are welcome, but Black Women are first because Dr. Venus wants to provide space for Black Women to experience being chosen and be THE priority.
