What happens when a key member decides to leave a popular podcast? We had an up-close look at the dynamics of The Receipts Podcast as Milena announced her departure. We shed light on the aftermath of her decision.
We're not just talking about The Receipts in this episode; we're also shedding light on the larger picture - the challenges faced by Black women in podcasting and beyond. From being labeled as bullies for simply being confident, to struggling to bring others into our success, we share personal experiences and stories that underline the need for support and mutual respect within the community. We make a case for the importance of reinvesting in oneself and discuss how Milena's decision could serve as a lesson in this regard.
In the final part of this episode, we spotlight black-owned businesses and creators, sharing our personal experiences of supporting these enterprises. We underline the power of setting boundaries and how encouragement and mutual respect can transform businesses and careers. As we wrap up, we express our heartfelt thanks to you, our listeners, for your continued support and love. Get ready for an episode packed with discovery, introspection, and candid conversation on the podcast industry and the role of Black women in it. Join us for this journey, and let's learn and grow together.
