Following Your Dreams and Doing What You Love | Dr. Joan speaks with Jamar Root Part 3

There's an old adage that goes, "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life." While this is intended for achieving a sense of fulfillment in your life while working, most individuals are torn between doing what they love and surviving. Due to the history of the Black community, most of the elders ignored what they loved, to focus on what helped them make a living. Right now, the younger generation seeks to find and chase what they love but are not sure how to make a living from it. How do you take what you love and are passionate about into an entrepreneurial endeavor?

In this episode of Hey, I’m Listening, Dr. Joan speaks with Jamar Root about Following Your Dreams and Doing What You Love
