Also since she last appeared on the podcast, she became a mom. We discuss challenges of working full time, running a business and motherhood. In her business she became certified as a Minority Business Enterprise. We discuss navigating that process and ways social workers with that certification can land government contracts on the state, local and federal level. We also discuss how the current governments' anti-DEI policies have affected her business.Tiyanna can be found on Instagram at @TSPEAKSNYCFollow the Podcast on Instagram at @THESOCIAL WORKRANTSPODCASTIf you are a caregiver in the sandwich generation (caring for an older adult while caring for your own child), I'm offering a free 45 minute consultation.
