Investing in ourselves is a crucial step towards personal and professional growth. We must prioritize and make investments that will benefit us in the long run. One such investment is hiring assistants in our businesses, which can help us scale the business and focus on the most critical tasks. However, saying yes to these investments can be challenging, especially when unsure of the outcome.

In this episode, I share the benefits of immediately saying yes to the investments that we need to make in ourselves. I talk about acting fast when investing in yourself, what happens when you don’t get your mind right when investing in yourself, and why black women are not scaling their businesses. I also discuss the criteria for investing in yourself and the effects of not investing in yourself. Tune in to learn more about this and other exciting topics!
