RISK TAKER

Having a business idea or dream is one thing. Turning it into a real business takes a plan, mentorship, the right support, and someone willing to help you push.In this episode of the Risk Taker Podcast, Ebens sits down with Tanya Morris, founder of Mom Your Business, for a real conversation about entrepreneurship, mentorship, business growth, faith, and what it takes to keep going when things get hard.Tanya shares why entrepreneurs need both mentors and coaches, why every business needs a plan, and why growth sometimes means being willing to evolve or walk away from what isn’t working. She also talks about why many Black and Brown women start businesses from a need in their family or community and how they can turn their skills and passions into businesses that grow. She also gets real about the times she wanted to quit, struggling to pay bills, and the faith that kept her moving forward. Her advice to entrepreneurs starting out is simple: find somebody to help you push, find somebody to help you build it, and get a plan. If you’re starting a business, feeling stuck, or trying to take your vision to the next level, this episode is for you.In this episode: Mentorship vs. coaching  Turning your passion into a real business  Why entrepreneurs need a plan  Knowing when to evolve or walk away  Why Black and Brown women often start businesses from a need  Faith and resilience in entrepreneurship  Collaboration over competition  Business growth and succession planningConnect with Tanya Morris https://momyourbusiness.com/FacebookInstagramLinkedln👉🏾Order your copy Dream Chasers Are Risk Takers: 90 Days Execution Plan👉🏾 Shop Risk Taker Apparel👉🏾  Sponsored by OWIG Multimedia  📲 Follow Risk Taker Podcast on SocialInstagramFacebookTikTokLinkedInYouTube Support the show

Starting a business because you’re great at your craft is one thing. Learning how to actually run and grow a successful business is another.In this episode of the Risk Taker Podcast, Ebens sits down with Chevonne Boyd of The Hive on Loockerman St for an open conversation about entrepreneurship, business ownership, betting on yourself, and the lessons you sometimes don’t learn until you’re already running the business.Chevonne shares how she went from spending years helping other people with their dreams to finally saying yes to her own. But once she stepped into entrepreneurship, she quickly learned that knowing your craft and knowing how to run a business are two different things.She gets open about going from 23 events in one month to slower seasons, cancellations, unexpected expenses, taxes, and reaching a point where she had to figure out how she was going to make payroll.Instead of hiding from the experience, Chevonne went back to the numbers, invested in learning what she didn’t know, and started putting better strategies in place.In this episode, we talk about:Why knowing your craft doesn’t mean you know how to run a businessBetting on yourself and finally saying yes to your own dreamCash flow, payroll, expenses, and preparing for slower seasonsLearning from business mistakes instead of repeating themWhy investing in yourself matters as an entrepreneurGetting rejected for a business grant, applying again, and winningFaith, marriage, and having the right support system while building a businessTaking the next step even when you’re scaredIf you’re an entrepreneur who knows your craft but is still learning what it takes to run, manage, and grow a business, this conversation is for you.Pray first.

Who you allow into your life can shape where you end up.In this episode, Ebens Jean talks about one of the most overlooked parts of building a business and chasing a dream: the people around you. Not everyone is meant to go where you're going, and not every opinion deserves your attention.If you're serious about your goals, it's worth asking yourself a few hard questions. Are the people around you pushing you forward or pulling you back? Are they adding value, or draining your time and energy? And are you taking advice from people who have actually done what you're trying to do?Ebens shares why every entrepreneur should regularly audit their relationships, build a strong network, find mentors who have been where they want to go, and stay focused during the seasons that matter most.Whether you're starting a business, growing your career, or working toward a personal goal, this episode is a reminder that the right people can open doors and the wrong people can keep them closed.In this episode, you'll learn: Why your relationships matter more than you think  How to know when it's time to distance yourself from certain people  Why mentors can help you grow faster  The danger of taking advice from people who haven't been where you want to go  How consistent action moves you closer to your goals If this episode challenged you, subscribe to the Risk Taker Podcast, leave a review, and share it with someone who's building something bigger than themselves.Order your copy Dream Chasers Are Risk Takers: 90 Days Execution Plan👉🏾 Shop Risk Taker Apparel👉🏾  Sponsored by OWIG Multimedia  📲 Follow Risk Taker Podcast on SocialInstagramFacebookTikTokLinkedInYouTube Support the show
