Her Stori Podcast

In this final episode of Season 2, you will meet the incredible Tanecia. She is a single mom of two, a fitness instructor with her own business and motivational speaker. Her love for people shines through in all she does. Tanecia's life, like many of ours, has been filled with trials and tribulations. She lost her dad at seven and that set her on a path of feeling unworthy of protection and totally alone. These emotions led to risky decisions and heartbreaking realities. Tanecia was a rape victim at 15, had a miscarriage at 16, was in an abusive relationship with a man nine years her senior at 17, and at 18 became a mom. Today she stands powerful in who she is and knows that God is using her passions to love people, something we are all called to do. She discusses entrepreneurship with us and compares the difference between her non-profit and for profit business. Press play and prepare to be inspired. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sarahelizabell/support

Her Stori is back with incredible stories from amazing women for Season 2! In Season 1 we discussed vulnerable topics, and in Season 2 you'll here the guests touch on some tough topics as well. The main goal for Season 2 was to pass the mic to Black Women. If you live in the U.S. (and maybe even outside of it), you've got to be conscious of the rising awareness towards racial inequality and injustices. I say awareness because the inequality and injustices have always been there, but some people are just waking up to the realization that inequality and injustice still exist. As Malcom X said, "The most disrespected person in America is the black woman. The most unprotected person in America is the black woman. The most neglected person in America is the black woman." We have to be better in listening to other people's stories and experiences so we can learn and grow to make our communities better and our country live up to her ideals. You can start here, by pressing play on Season 2 of Her Stori and listening to these beautiful Black women tell their stories. Charese is a financial and small business queen. She loves supporting small businesses as a consumer and through her own business, Financial Fancy. Press play to hear her stori of entrepreneurship, the importance of getting your finances right, her favorite budgeting apps, and more. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sarahelizabell/support
