I became a full time consultant on June 1, 2016.

I’m joining Joyee Washington,on an all-new episode of the Public Health Joy !

Tune in to hear me reflect on my career as a social worker, my lessons learned in almost 10 years in consulting, and the connection between social work and public health.

We spoke candidly about the importance of intentionality (including choosing work, relationships, and opportunities that align with your values and purpose). We recorded the podcast after I'd returning home to DC after caregiving for my father for 3 months, and our conversation shows that growth is rarely linear and how important it is to navigate transitions and difficult times with clarity and courage.

Key points:

Intersection of social work and public health
Career evolution and entrepreneurship
The power of words and manifestation
Intentional leadership and community impact

The podcast is available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/public-health-joy-community-power-health-equity-and/id1646078479?i=1000767911768

What is a strong funder portfolio?

Investments accumulate, priorities evolve, and new opportunities emerge. While individual grants may be well-intentioned, the portfolio as a whole may not reflect a clear strategy.
