S11 E4: You Define Your Legacy with Anna DeShawn
Manage episode 355466357 series 2390991
WinHers United the podcast is a women empowerment platform that is based on four pillars: business, mindset, personal development, and self-care. At WinHers United we believe these four pillars are necessary to be a successful entrepreneur. During each season, bi-weekly an ah-mazing Woman of Color entrepreneur is interviewed, and tells us more about her business, mindset, personal development, and self-care journey.
Season 11, Episode 4 features Anna DeShawn - Media Mogul and Founder of E3 Radio and The Qube. During this episode entitled “You Define Your Legacy”, Anna shares her story of how Covid promoted her big leap from full time employee into full time entrepreneurship. She encourages us to follow our passions, go after the money we need to fund our dreams, and live without regret.
Listen in as Anna talks about:
How Covid made her realize that life is short, and she didn't want to spend all her time and energy focusing on someone else's goals.
Her background in and overall love for media.
Having to pivot many times while building her platform The Qube.
The impact and success of her latest project Black HIV in the South.
Obtaining a licensing and distribution deal with Urban One.
The crowdfunding and pitch competitions she embarked upon to raise the funds needed for her pursuits.
Dealing with the No’s that come along with asking for what you need.
The accelerator and incubator programs she has been involved in along her journey to greatness.
The morning routine she practices to stay grounded and conquer her days.
The importance of living and leaving a legacy for yourself and others.
And more
