For many travelers, Antarctica is a bucket-list destination, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to touch all seven continents. In 2023, a record-breaking 100,000 tourists made the trip. But the journey begs a fundamental question: What do we risk by traveling to a place that is supposed to be uninhabited by humans? And as the climate warms, should we really be going to Antarctica in the first place?

248: From Book to Business: How Authors Can Scale Their Impact & Income w/ Taurea Avant 1:09:41

9 hari yang lalu1:09:41

1:09:41

At first glance, authors and entrepreneurs might seem like they live in separate worlds. But they are more connected than you might think. Traditionally, books have been treated as stand-alone works, limiting their potential impact. Out of the 11,000 books published every day, only about 1,000 make over $1,000 a year. But what if your book could do more than sit on a shelf? What if it could spark a movement, create consistent income, and build the foundation of a thriving business? In this episode, we’re diving into how your book can be the blueprint for your brand, the manifesto of your mission, and the seed that grows into a profitable platform. For Black entrepreneurs, who often face barriers to capital, mentorship, and visibility, authorship can be a powerful form of ownership and authority. That’s why we’re joined by Taurea Avant, a graduate of Hampton University, a two-time TEDx speaker, and the Queen of Book Profiting. She has helped over 6,000 speakers and coaches become published authors and turn their books into multiple streams of income. In this masterclass style episode, she walks you through the exact steps to go from book to business while giving you the tools to scale your impact along the way. DURING THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: Why most books don’t generate real income and how to change that The mindset shift needed to go from author to entrepreneur How to turn chapters from your book into offers, services, or experiences What systems and tools you need to run a book-based business How to use your book to land speaking opportunities and media features Why your book should be a core part of your brand, not just a side project Don't miss out on the resources mentioned in this episode by checking out the show notes at blacktobusiness.com/248 Thank you so much for listening!

For Black entrepreneurs, there’s a lot of pressure to get it right from the beginning. But what if your breakthrough came not from being perfect, but from being free? In this episode, we’re breaking down how rediscovering your creativity and honoring your inner child can unlock authenticity, consistency, and visibility in your content. We understand how confusing and overwhelming it can feel trying to show up on social media while staying true to your brand and your mental wellness.

When we talk about business success, the focus is often on what things look like from the outside: numbers, visibility, and public wins. But what about what it feels like to actually run your business behind the scenes? In this solo episode, we’re closing out Women’s History Month with a powerful reflection on internal success. Because building a business that looks good but feels heavy, misaligned, or overwhelming is not the goal. You deserve a business that supports you fully. One that nurtures you emotionally, mentally, financially, and energetically. Whether you’re in a season of growth, realignment, or simply questioning what’s next, this conversation will help you reconnect to your own definition of success and give you tools to build from that place. THINGS YOU’LL LEARN DURING THIS EPISODE: Why internal success matters and how it impacts the way you build How to define what success feels like, not just what it looks like Ways to build a business around your values and capacity How to stop performing for outside approval and start aligning inward The role systems play in protecting your energy and creating ease How to do regular check-ins with your business to stay in alignment —-- Thank you so much for listening!

In today’s fast-paced digital world, accessibility and customization are no longer optional. They’re essential.

Too many entrepreneurs stay focused on what’s in front of them—getting clients, making sales, and keeping their business afloat. While handling the day-to-day is important, real growth happens when you start thinking long-term, even before you feel ready.

They come to businesses that have positioned themselves to receive them. And that’s exactly what we’re diving into in this episode. If you’re tired of feeling stuck in survival mode, constantly working but never really moving forward, this conversation is for you.
