Making pivots in your strategy is a natural part of your entrepreneurial journey. In my specific case, there isn’t one thing that needs to change, but instead, I feel a shift occurring in my personal life and my business, and I want to make sure that everything I put out for you is actually in alignment with the work that I am doing. 

If you’ve felt called to make a change, perhaps an intentional break will give you the space to devise a plan.

Systems are analyzing the data of where we are right now to predict our future. In today’s conversation, I am joined by De’Von Truvel, creator of the game Play Black Wall Street. We talk about the future of Black wealth in America and why it is up to us to change the narrative of what is spoken over our lives. 

This was an especially inspiring and emotional conversation as we both recently returned from a trip to Ghana. You’ll hear how we both were affected by the experience and how we were both empowered to learn the true beginning of Black history and the resilient nature of our culture. 

In this episode, you’ll also hear how De’Von first developed the concept for his game and how it became an entire business over time. He shares excellent lessons on overcoming perfectionism, creating an MVP (Minimum Viable Product), and what it was like to work with business investors and advisors who don’t fully understand your project.

De’Von has a big vision for his company, and his game, Play Black Wall Street, is only one piece of the puzzle. The future holds a multi-layered approach to educating and entertaining folks about Black history, and I’m excited to hear about what’s to come.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Going, Going, Back, Back to Ghana, Ghana</title><itunes:title>Going, Going, Back, Back to Ghana, Ghana</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: http://transcendthepodcast.com </p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

Do you know your family origin story? After my recent trip to Ghana, the home of my ancestors, I can speak from personal experience when I say there is so much power in understanding your roots. 

I’ve always felt a bit like an adopted child in America; not fully American, but not entirely African, either. Going to Ghana and spending time at the sites where, for hundreds of years, my ancestors were held captive and sold as enslaved people gave me a deeper understanding of the trauma that they went through and how much of a miracle it is that I get to live the life I do. 

It also helped me see that my family&apos;s origin story is not all about suffering, and there is so much more to African history than the slave trade. We’ve come a long way, but we still have a long way to go. 

I hope you enjoy this deeply personal episode and that it encourages you to look into the origin story of your own family.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Singleness is an Entrepreneurial Super Power</title><itunes:title>Singleness is an Entrepreneurial Super Power</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/63 </p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

Today we look at the evolution of business in four different seasons and what it looks like for entrepreneurs to plant, cultivate, harvest, and rest in their business.

In the planting season, we look at what it means to put your seeds of ideas in the ground and create the foundation for your business. We then move into cultivation and discuss what it means to nurture the relationships we’ve built and the audience we’re gathering. Next, we move into the third season, which is harvesting. When you have planted and nurtured the seeds of your business, you will then be able to harvest the fruit of your labor. That means that you&apos;re going to have clients, you might get brand partnerships, you might be asked to do a keynote speech, or you might be asked to collaborate. All those things are coming because you planted and cultivated the seeds for your business and focused on growing them.

In this episode, we also talk about the importance of having a season of rest and how this fits into our seasons of business. We often forget to rest before we plant new seeds, which can lead to stress and overwhelm. Instead, I encourage you to intentionally build in time for rest into your seasons of business.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>[Re-Release] You’re An Entrepreneur.

There is still a distinct gap in wealth between white and Black people in the US. 

The truth is that there are many examples of Black entrepreneurship in the US after slavery was abolished. Black folks had unique skills they monetized to serve their communities. These efforts grew into a diverse set of businesses, including banks, restaurants, and insurance companies. 

However, alongside this trajectory of Black entrepreneurship runs a parallel thread of sabotage by white folks looking to derail people of color on the road to financial freedom.

This episode gives listeners an important history lesson. You’ll also hear about some of the earliest and most remarkable examples of Black entrepreneurship, including the story of Robert Reed Church and the Solvent Savings Bank and Trust. You’ll also learn about some of the biggest oppressive maneuvers conducted by white people, such as the Greenwood Massacre, the mismanagement of the G.I. Bill, and Redlining. 

Entrepreneurship is in our DNA as Black people, and by following this path, we can empower ourselves, our families, and our communities.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>[Re-Release] Coaching Yourself Through Tough Times</title><itunes:title>[Re-Release] Coaching Yourself Through Tough Times</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/16 </p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

It&apos;s not about whether it feels like it&apos;s going well or not; it’s about continuing to persevere and keep moving forward, working towards your goals. That’s where the importance of neuro coaching comes in. 

In today&apos;s episode, we dive into the benefits of self-coaching: the importance of focusing on the practice instead of the outcome, being less critical of yourself and realizing that all situations are neutral. We talk about dealing with thoughts and emotions while on this bumpy road of entrepreneurship, flipping the coin on negative thoughts, and using your beliefs to lead your actions.

In the process, she had several revelations relatable to entrepreneurship and other aspects of life. 

Tuning in, you’ll hear how I ended up at the spa with my friends, my expectations for the trip, and my views on public nudity before this experience. You’ll also hear what it was like first to encounter naked people in public, what it felt like to be the odd one out for wearing clothes, and how my friends and I decided to make the most of the situation.

Listen in today for some profound revelations about choosing to be comfortable, challenging your limiting beliefs, and removing the modifiers of good or bad to see events like this as experiences.

On this episode, we welcome guest Karen Ball. Karen shares her expertise in navigating health insurance for entrepreneurs and small business owners. We know that caring for our health holistically is vital to living an effective and joy-filled life!

There will always be challenges and moments of difficulty, but when we find alignment and get in touch with our true goals, we often find that things start to flow in powerful ways. Here on the show today to talk about how she helps business owners walk this road is alignment coach Mae Chan.

In my chat with Mae, you’ll hear all about her current work and the development of the different parts of her business in the last few years. Mae talks about the ideas and concepts that ground her coaching, the emphasis she places on individual alignment, and following our truth. We also talk about shedding the parts of our lives that are not serving us and why ease, peace, and revenue are so closely entwined.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>The Mindset of an Entrepreneur Pt. 2</title><itunes:title>The Mindset of an Entrepreneur Pt. 2</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/53 </p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

If your business is struggling, it is often linked to a struggle that you may be going through in your personal life. Investing in yourself and your own long-term well-being is an essential investment in your business.

In today&apos;s episode, we will discover the role that shame played in my journey and illustrate a simple meditation exercise to help you take inventory of your own shame, how it is holding you back, and what your life and your business could look like if you chose to let it go.

In the end, no one can make you feel ashamed or embarrassed. We choose to internalize it for ourselves, and we can choose to release ourselves from it!

Today, on the show, we have CPA and Tax Strategist Chika Obih. Chika has been in the tax game for over ten years, helping many clients shift their mindset and practices and increasing their savings!
 
In our chat with Chika, we hear about how she found her way into this career and the kinds of clients she has attracted. She generously shares some of the pivotal moments from her journey, explaining what it took for her to step up and start to take herself and her business seriously. This episode is jam-packed with great lessons, and Chika&apos;s story is truly inspirational.
 
We cover the most critical aspects of returns, deductions, credits, and much more. Some of the biggest takeaways from this conversation are the numerous reasons that Chika gives us to stop fearing taxes and embrace the part they play in the life of any successful business owner.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Talking Business and Product Design with Candice Cox</title><itunes:title>Talking Business and Product Design with Candice Cox</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/41" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">thewilkersonlawoffice.com/41</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

My goal with the Transcend Membership Community is to offer you all three of these resources in one readily available place.

In today’s episode, I’m going to explain the numerous offerings that make up the membership, and how they will help you build the business and wealth legacy that you’ve been dreaming of. 

Founding and running a business is a holistic journey, so there’s a legal/business side to the membership where we get into things like contracts and how to form a California LLC. There’s also a more spiritual side where we do visualizations and meditations to help you craft a strong mindset.

Also in today’s episode, you are a few testimonials from members about how being a part of the Transcend Membership Community has changed their lives!

Today we are marching forward in our small series on building your business for the long run. This episode is a quick introduction to the workshop entitled How to Build Your Team Without Violating Employment Law that we will be hosting on Friday, March 18, 2022! We will be getting into how to do things the right way for you, your business, and your team of employees.

Hiring and onboarding can be daunting, especially when starting out, so this is all about making these steps more manageable and even exciting! An essential factor in this is getting away from the false sense of having to do everything ourselves, and building a great team is the key to a healthier business that is not solely reliant on you!</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Creating Contracts to Protect Your Business</title><itunes:title>Creating Contracts to Protect Your Business</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/38" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">thewilkersonlawoffice.com/38</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

But what happens when your actions don&apos;t match your goals? Whether you&apos;re thinking about launching a business, investing in the stock market, or buying a house, today’s episode focuses on how you can take the steps necessary to achieve those goals and overcome the cognitive dissonance that can sometimes prevent you from taking action.

You’ll hear some examples of how your subconscious beliefs might not support the unique, ambitious goals you have and how to get to the root of those limiting thoughts by rewiring and disproving them. Remember to give yourself some space and some grace to dig in and grow; we can practically guarantee that you&apos;ll be happy with the results you achieve!

Getting your brand or product out into the public eye so that the right people can find and connect with what you do is such a vital part of building something that sticks. We want to help you get the shine that you and your business deserve! Today, our guest is Bosko Kante, and his story illustrates this exact concept.

Bosko is the great mind behind ElectroSpit, the next generation of mobile talkbox technology. After contributing to and producing some of the biggest popular songs around, Bosko wanted to take his talkbox artistry to the next level, make it easier to perform live, and build a business that used his passion for music and engineering. On top of this project, Bosko is also behind the Black Music Entrepreneurship Incubator, and we get to see how his vision for these different avenues ties together. 

Hearing Bosko&apos;s story and the enthusiasm and persistence with which he has approached the different stages of his career is truly inspiring. He is an excellent example of why visibility, networking, and taking leaps of faith can make all the difference in your trajectory.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Get Visible, People Need to See You</title><itunes:title>Get Visible, People Need to See You</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/33" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">thewilkersonlawoffice.com/33</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

As always, I&apos;m so grateful that you are here with me today. 
On today&apos;s episode, I talk about getting visible and why that is so important for your business growth. If you genuinely want to connect with the people that can most benefit from your podcast or services, you’re going to want to put your message out there in an authentic way. But here’s the thing, being visible is not easy. It can be a challenge to stay motivated, and there are plenty of other mindset hurdles to get over. I have been working through these challenges myself and have some tips on today’s episode that I hope you’ll find helpful.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Five Mistakes New Business Owners Make</title><itunes:title>Five Mistakes New Business Owners Make</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/32" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

Today, I want to talk to you about the new year and new goals. Every year people say, “new year, new me,” right. I almost titled this episode “New Year, New Me, but I decided to call it “New Year, Same Me” because there&apos;s this sense of, and I usually do it too, that whatever I was doing the year before wasn&apos;t working and now is the time to step my game up. 

First of all, you don&apos;t have to wait until the new year to step your game up. But of course, it&apos;s an easy calendar switch; the season marks a new beginning, so I get it. But I&apos;m going to challenge you today to think about the same things you want to continue doing in 2022 that worked for you and brought you success in 2021.

Instead of thinking about erasing everything you did or thinking that maybe 2021 wasn&apos;t good enough, I want you to reflect and think about what worked well for you and to continue doing those things. Sometimes that&apos;s more helpful than starting something new because you already have momentum with what you&apos;re doing. 

I’m excited to bring you today’s episode and get us all moving together into a new year of abundance and success. Let’s dive in.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Looking Ahead to 2022 with Leslie Tagorda</title><itunes:title>Looking Ahead to 2022 with Leslie Tagorda</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/29" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

We often act in discordance with our intuition, stuck in a perpetual cycle of work due to outside pressure from western, patriarchal expectations. However, there is an abundance of ancestral wisdom that we have at our disposal, and by looking at our astrological charts, we can access it! Furthermore, there is much to be learned from the planets about what is in store for us in 2022!

Today on the show we welcome Leslie Tagorda of New Moon Creative, a multiracial brand astrologer, designer, podcast host, and author. As an Aquarius (Sun), Sagittarius (Moon), Gemini (Rising), and Human Design Projector, Leslie has found her calling navigating visionary spiritual entrepreneurs and social impact makers to their star-charted success in their spiritual journey through their work.

Our conversation with Leslie is all about how our natal charts can help us break free from external conditioning and act in alignment with the celestial energies. She talks about how she helps her clients stop wasting time and making choices that stand in dissonance with their stars. We also get into the astrological happenings of 2020 and what the movements of the planetary bodies can tell us about the coming year.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Shell Corporations: What You Need to Know with Zachary Knox</title><itunes:title>Shell Corporations: What You Need to Know with Zachary Knox</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/28" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

We also talk a bit about tax and I know these are definitely heavy topics, but Zach does a really good job of breaking them down and making them easier to understand. 

Mr. Knox has successfully tried, mediated and arbitrated matters on behalf of clients in the areas of business and commercial law, civil litigation, and tax. His practice also consists of extensive advising of both businesses and individuals on matters, including personal finance, wealth and estate management, business entity formation, business development, strategic planning, risk assessment, commercial transactions, and commercial litigation just to name a few. 

His approach is to deliver reasons and practical counsel to each of his clients while representing their interests with a results-oriented focus. Zach has a wealth of knowledge to share and you get to hear all this and more in this episode.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>From Idea to Product with Wale Forrester</title><itunes:title>From Idea to Product with Wale Forrester</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="https://thewilkersonlawoffice.com/27" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

The idea that he came up with to fill this gap evolved into a company called ShowerPill, which in turn evolved into Hustle Clean, the business that today, he runs with his long-time friend, Justin Forsett. The product they created is an antibacterial and antimicrobial wipe that kills 99.9% of germs on the body; say goodbye to staph infections, and say hello to the Nike Air Jordan’s of the post-exercise realm! 

In today’s episode, you’ll get an inside look into how Wale and his business partners (Wendell Hunter was a founding partner who is no longer involved in the business) turned an idea into a major brand with national scope, the challenges they have experienced along the way and how they have dealt with them, and the purpose which a big driver behind their mission.

At the same time, many of us have this calling, and when the time is right, it is also important to heed that call. 

On the show today is Annalyn Cruz, and she is here to talk about her journey and how she made the decision to quit her corporate job and the important steps and resources that helped her along the way.

Annalyn is a leadership and career coach, group facilitator, and professional speaker. Her philosophy is grounded in taking the right kind of risks and allowing success to grow in surprising ways, acknowledging the non-linear nature of our lives. Much of her work is focused on helping BIPOC women to reach beyond the limitations and conditioning that we are all subject to in varying degrees, and hearing Annalyn&apos;s commitment to this important work is truly inspiring. 

In our chat, we get to talk about some of the hurdles and ceilings that we face as people of color, what it means to transcend these into a successful life in entrepreneurship, and how important it is to share these lessons with our growing networks. Annalyn also unpacks some of her important milestones, mindset shifts, biggest wins, and how the power of community has aided her along the way.

Despite his idea being turned down initially, Tunde refused to give up on his dream of making coding accessible and enjoyable for people of color, and he used an innovative strategy to garner interest in the subject, as you will hear about today. 

Technology is a pervasive force across the world and is used to enhance so many aspects of our lives, including our economic standing. People of color are often introduced to technology through a negative lens, resulting in a disadvantage. Through its community-based, family-centered, in-depth approach, StreetCode Academy sets itself apart from other organizations doing similar work and has experienced huge growth since its founding in 2014. 

Listen in today to gain insights into the factors that have made StreetCode Academy the success that it is, the hopes that Tunde has for the future of the organization, and the organization’s refreshing approach to wellbeing!</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>You&apos;re An Entrepreneur.

There is still a distinct gap in wealth between white and Black people in the US. 

The truth is that there are many examples of Black entrepreneurship in the US after slavery was abolished. Black folks had unique skills they monetized to serve their communities. These efforts grew into a diverse set of businesses, including banks, restaurants, and insurance companies. 

However, alongside this trajectory of Black entrepreneurship runs a parallel thread of sabotage by white folks looking to derail people of color on the road to financial freedom.

This episode gives listeners an important history lesson. You’ll also hear about some of the earliest and most remarkable examples of Black entrepreneurship, including the story of Robert Reed Church and the Solvent Savings Bank and Trust. You’ll also learn about some of the biggest oppressive maneuvers conducted by white people, such as the Greenwood Massacre, the mismanagement of the G.I. Bill, and Redlining. 

Entrepreneurship is in our DNA as Black people, and by following this path, we can empower ourselves, our families, and our communities.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>A Case Study on Intentional Business Growth with Ariana Gil</title><itunes:title>A Case Study on Intentional Business Growth with Ariana Gil</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="thewilkersonlawoffice.com/23" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">thewilkersonlawoffice.com/23</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

Last week, we discussed systems, processes, getting organized, and thinking about what you can do to automate your business. This week, you’ll learn a simple solution for decreasing your workload and helping your business run smoother: hiring a virtual assistant (VA)!

Hiring a VA will not only free up important time to focus on scaling your business, but it also means that you can focus on the tasks that you actually enjoy doing. Today, you’ll learn the difference between hiring an in-person office assistant and a virtual assistant. I also share some examples of the tasks you can delegate to them and give my best tips for finding the right VA for your business. I also cover the benefits of working with an agency rather than an independent contractor and so much more!</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Simplify Your Systems, Grow Your Business</title><itunes:title>Simplify Your Systems, Grow Your Business</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="http://transcendthepodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

I am so grateful for your continued viewing and listening, whether it&apos;s in your favorite podcast app or on YouTube. 

I&apos;m really excited about this week&apos;s episode because I&apos;m sharing with you some experiences of some of the clients who have come through the Transcend membership community. I know I can tell you all about it. I can tell you why it&apos;s important to be surrounded by entrepreneurs who are going in the same direction, but better than I can say it, they can tell you for themselves what transformations have happened for them.

Transcend the Membership is my gift to the world. It is my commitment to equaling the playing field and providing this social justice committed space for black and brown entrepreneurs to really grow and build a business. So I am delighted about the stories that have come from members of Transcend. 

Now, one more thing. I am closing the doors to the current membership structure on October 15th, which means you have just a couple more days to enroll in Transcend the Membership until the prices go up. When I relaunch again on December 1st, 2021. 

So if you were interested in joining now, especially after you hear these testimonies, I know you&apos;re going to be interested. Then I want you to go to transcendthemembership.com and check it out. Also, feel free to connect with me on Instagram @ashawilkersonesq. If you have any questions. I&apos;ll be happy to tell you all about it. So without further ado, let&apos;s hear what the folks have to say.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Time-Saving Business Hacks</title><itunes:title>Time-Saving Business Hacks</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="http://transcendthepodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

Her primary focus is tailoring her services for the needs of BIPOC folks who have historically been excluded from the conversation around mental health. She operates from the belief that true strength does not lie in avoiding one’s emotions but rather in learning how to accept them as a part of our full experience as human beings. Her practice provides a safe space for Black women-identified individuals to be their whole selves without censoring, toning down their personality, or code-switching.

In our conversation, we discuss some of the intense emotions one can experience as an entrepreneur. We explore how our society has normalized work stress and why it is difficult to recognize when you may need professional help. This can be especially true for Black women who are continually conditioned to put others first and rarely allow themselves the time to prioritize their own mental and physical health. 

We break down achievable methods for managing stress and also look at the concept of mental fitness and why a supportive community is so important. I loved having Amber on the show, and I’m sure you will find the conversation every bit as informative and thought-provoking as I did.

It&apos;s not about whether it feels like it&apos;s going well or not; it’s about continuing to persevere and keep moving forward, working towards your goals. That’s where the importance of neuro coaching comes in. 

On today’s episode, we dive into the benefits of self-coaching: the importance of focusing on the practice instead of the outcome, being less critical of yourself and realizing that all situations are neutral. We talk about dealing with thoughts and emotions while on this bumpy road of entrepreneurship, flipping the coin on negative thoughts, and using your beliefs to lead your actions.

While it’s true that God loves the poor, the belief that He doesn’t love the wealthy is unfounded, and in today’s episode, I’m joined by Pastor Michael McBride (one of my favorite people in the world!) Who is going to shed some light on this issue. He is the Lead Pastor of The Way Christian Center in West Berkeley. Pastor Mike is also heavily involved with several organizations working towards racial justice and black liberation.   Our discussion covers the topics of poverty, injustice, and how entrepreneurial endeavors have the power to alleviate these burdens, which people of color too often carry. The system we are a part of isn’t important, what matters is the outcomes, and by using our entrepreneurial skills and knowledge, combined with a faith-based understanding of fairness and equity, we have the power to create better results for ourselves, as well as society as a whole.</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="http://transcendthepodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

Ruky has extensive experience as an intellectual property attorney from her time at a top litigation firm in Silicon Valley and draws on that knowledge to help her clients, many of whom are creatives, to protect their intellectual property. 

We cover a lot of ground in this episode. Ruky defines the many forms of trademarks in our conversation and shares several useful examples to learn from. She also shares the most common mistakes that creatives make along with her advice to avoid them. Tune in to find out what it means when a trademark is rejected on the basis of Failure to Function, and what this has meant for the phrase Black Lives Matter.

I discuss 10 steps you need to take immediately to make sure your business is properly formed and in compliance. 

These 10 steps are not specific advice for your business. If you need specific advice, you’ll need to find an attorney that is licensed in the jurisdiction where your company is formed or where you&apos;re looking to form it.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>IP or LLC, Which Comes First? with Kristen G.

Roberts. Not only is Kristen an award-winning attorney, but she is also the founder and managing attorney of Trestle Law. Her firm specializes in helping businesses and their owners protect their brands along with other valuable intellectual property. She is highly accomplished in the fields of trademark and copyright law, from both transactional and litigation standpoints, and is dedicated to representing and protecting her clients&apos; intellectual property interests.

Tuning in, you&apos;ll hear Kristen outline the critical components of intellectual property, namely trademark, copyright, patent, and trade secret. She explains how these elements interact in business and why licensing intellectual property is integral to building a legacy and ensuring long-term earnings. We delve into how the intellectual property of BIPOC has historically been exploited and why it&apos;s still an uphill battle, even with the momentum of the Black Lives Matter movement. Kristen shares her answer to the question &apos;IP or LLC, which comes first?&apos; and outlines why establishing an LLC protects you as an individual. We loved having Kristen on the show to share her wealth of knowledge and expertise.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>What&apos;s So Important About IP?</title><itunes:title>What&apos;s So Important About IP?</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="http://transcendthepodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

IP refers to the intangible works of the mind, such as inventions, designs, literary and artistic works, symbols, names, and images used in business. Generally, all companies own some form of intellectual property. Some of the most common types of IP law consist of copyrights, trademarks, patents, and trade secrets.

From  what to do and how to do it to the shortcuts they believe will get you there faster. 

Instead of focusing on hacks and shortcuts, in this episode, I share with you two proven ways to scale your business. The first is hiring a team and the second is productizing your business offerings.

One of the hardest things to do as an entrepreneur is to hire your first employee and it requires a lot of trust in yourself to make sure that you&apos;re going to find the right person and a lot of trust in the other person to make sure that they are going to do right by you and right by the business. 

I also share with you the strategies I’ve used in my own business to productize my services and offer digital products that have helped me scale beyond 1-to-1 services.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Start Your Business On A Strong Foundation</title><itunes:title>Start Your Business On A Strong Foundation</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="http://transcendthepodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.

A lot of people are afraid of what they don&apos;t know, and setting up an LLC or corporation can feel intimidating. But when you look at the top 10% of the wealthiest people in the United States, they&apos;re entrepreneurs and they&apos;re business owners and they&apos;re entrepreneurs and business owners that have LLCs and corporations, probably multiple LLCs and corporations! 

I’m here to say that these tools are available to us. In this episode I cover the benefits of LLCs and corporations, how to plan for your future retirement as an entrepreneur, and also share with you my thoughts on crafting a business exit strategy.

My hope is that after listening to this episode you&apos;ll be more informed and feel ready to take your business to the next level.</itunes:summary><itunes:author>Asha Wilkerson, Esq.</itunes:author></item><item><title>Welcome to Transcend the Podcast</title><itunes:title>Welcome to Transcend the Podcast</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Get full show notes and more information at: <a href="http://transcendthepodcast.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">transcendthepodcast.com</a></p><p>For more behind-the-scenes of this podcast follow <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ashawilkersonesq/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@ashawilkersonesq</a> on Instagram!</p><p>TRANSCEND is not your average membership.
