Professional Troublemaker

Economic justice is social justice. We can’t resist oppression when we’re struggling to keep the lights on. ?? This isn’t just about wealth, it’s about survival, about funding movements and protecting rights. ??? Building sustainable businesses takes more than grit, though. It demands strategic brilliance and the right frameworks. ?? So I'm proud to have brought Chloe Hakim-Moore to the Professional Troublemaker #Podcast. Chloe is a Forbes 30 Under 30 and a builder of eight-figure companies with no shortcuts. Her story proves we can build wealth and power without compromise. Chloe has created lasting economic power that enables her to resist and stand firm. In a world quick to accept mediocrity, taking up economic space isn’t optional. It’s revolutionary. ???? Chloe is the real deal, that’s why I invite you to join Chloe on November 20 at 7pm ET for a FREE MASTERCLASS: ENTREPRENEUR EXCEL. She has the battle-tested strategy for building purpose-driven, profitable businesses that fuel change. Don’t miss it. Step into your power. ????

When we build successful businesses, we create more than jobs. We forge safe spaces for excellence to flourish. When we secure our economic power, we gain the freedom to walk away from spaces that diminish our worth. When we build wealth, we fund the movements that protect our civil rights, our voting rights, our human rights. When we achieve financial independence, we break generational chains of economic oppression. This is why I consider the fight for economic justice to be, in itself, revolutionary.

8 years ago (September 13, 2016), my life changed ??. I became a published author when my first book, I’m Judging You: The Do-Better Manual dropped into the world. ???? This book that was a tongue in cheek guide on how we need to be better about the ways we are showing up and leaving this world better than we found it. It book became an instant New York Times bestseller. ? That book changed my life in ways that have blown my mind. ?? It has allowed me to retire my mom; and on its eighth anniversary, I’m reflecting on how it became a catalyst for so many of my dreams coming true. ???? I’ve now written four books, all of which have hit The New York Times bestsellers list, establishing me as a power penholder ????. I’m incredibly grateful for this journey. I’m grateful to the people who’ve championed my work. Happy birthday to I’m Judging You, the book that still makes people cackle TO THIS DAY! ???? If you haven’t read it yet, check it out. Your bookshelf will thank you. ?? ImJudgingYou.com.

After last year almost took me OUT ?? and I was 3 months away from the company going bankrupt, I'm now in rebuild mode. Not just of my business but of myself. ???? My final episode of season 5 of Professional Troublemaker ??? is now out, and I get into the nitty gritty of what this REBUILD and HEALING season has taken from me and given to me. ?? This season has been cathartic to me. I wasn’t expecting to go so deep and be so vulnerable, but when we are given an assignment, we must obey. In that are the rewards we so seek. ???? I'm grateful to God for the crumbling cuz in that was the divine transformation. Trusting God was part of that assignment, btw. ? Listen to this episode anywhere you get your podcast fix.

First of all, lemme say that it's EXHAUSTING living through historical times. Like... I miss precedented times so bad and I want them back. ?? When I turned the pages of history books, I couldn't fathom how people managed to handle those crises. Now, I see it clearly because we are experiencing pure chaos all around the world right now. Who would we have been during Slavery, the Holocaust, the Civil War, or the American Revolution, McCarthyism? Who we are now reflect who we would have been then. Are we enabling the foolishness happening by spreading misinformation? Are we acting as if our options are void? Are we using the power we have in the every day rooms we find ourselves in or sitting back and simply observing? My latest issue of the Troublemaker Tribune is now up!
