In today’s solo episode with Monique T. Marshall, founder of Black to Business, we dive deep into what it really means to take risks in business. We’re not talking about reckless moves; we’re talking about the calculated risks that lead to growth, transformation, and new opportunities. As an entrepreneur, it’s easy to get caught up in the fear of failure, the desire for perfection, or the comfort of playing it safe. But playing it safe rarely leads to greatness.
