Coffee No Cream Summer Rewind #6 – Black Women, Build Your Own Table

Should you stay in corporate, or should you go? That's the question this whole episode is built around.

Over 62 episodes, you and your guests have answered this from every angle, how to find the right organization, how to shift from tasks to value, how to build confidence outside of a job title, what burnout actually costs. This Summer Rewind pulls together the strongest career advice from the entire run: Rhonda Joy McLean and Elaine Meryl Brown on building your own table when the one you're at won't make room for you.

Celeste Warren on doing real due diligence before you accept a job. Natasha Williams on scarcity mindset and learning the system before you leave it.

Dr. Pamela Buchanan on what burnout during the pandemic actually did to her, and what she built after.

This isn't a highlight reel. It's the playbook.
