NO GATEKEEPING! INTERVIEW
Before we dive into the specifics, could you introduce yourself and share a bit about your background and the experiences that have shaped your path in entrepreneurship?
Hi my name is Constance Taylor ( Connie for short ) & i am a Harlem native. Ive always been big on1) putting people on. 2) giving people their flowers when its due, since so many give up just short of success. So after my journey from a radio host, blogger, event curator, and now patented inventor - I get to do both things in a way that fills my cup!
What inspired you on the path of entrepreneurship, and how has that initial inspiration evolved over time?
I legit gave the traditional working life a try. I excel in this space but realized quickly that giving away my time for the low was a little insane! Especially while not doing all the things I KNEW I could do. Finding out how valuable my TIME was the biggest inspiration for me! This has evolved by being super intentional about my next moves & opportunities I chose to take on moving forward!
What practical tips or strategies have you found most effective in overcoming obstacles and achieving your goals?
Start with intentionality. Once you THINK it, INK it. & there's nothing wrong with asking for help. You do not( & should not ) have to wear all the hats. So take note of all that needs to be done, what parts or things you enjoy, then hire out the rest!
Support your
Brother's Mental Health
We know that men’s mental health affects everyone—wives, mothers, daughters, sisters, and friends. Together, we can make sure that the men in our lives have a safe space to find support, connect, and grow.
How do you manage stress and maintain focus during challenging periods in your entrepreneurial journey?
I started doing something called 'Weekly Wins' with a trusted fellow entrepreneur where we take the time to think of WINS in several different areas in our business & life. No win is too big or small, it makes me intentional about gratitude. & though I'm still working on this part. whenever I have challenging periods on my journey, I reflect on my wins spreadsheet and most times it helps me shake off whatever rut I'm in & realize that I am a force to be reckoned with ! #Respectfully
Describe a networking experience that significantly impacted your business or personal growth.
Hired a video/photographer through a trusted source without a contract or scope of work. Ended up not getting what I was needed and had to FIGHT to get any footage of my own event. Having the wrong collab will do it every single time ! I'm just glad I was able to quickly re-frame the L and take it was a Lesson. Everything in black & white, plus set clear expectations on all fronts.
