Personal Note from Naketa:

The conversation doesn’t stop here; come chat with me over on @naketarenthigpen Substack.

I take you deeper with unfiltered reflections, the behind-the-scenes thought process, and the real-world application of everything we unpacked here.

Pull up a chair, pour a cup (or glass, no judgment here), and let’s talk work, life, love, growth, (and) how to sustain it without losing your mogul-in-the-making mind.
