In today’s episode of Ain’t Nothing Like A Howard Girl, Howard University School of Business Graduate Victoria Iworah Stokes talks about what it’s like to leave the University without the coveted “Big Girl Job” we come in expecting to obtain.
She talks about her motivation to leave South Carolina for Washington DC as a teen, and what that experience was like in the long run.
Victoria shares what it is like to land that corporate job, maintain it, while also running a business, nurturing a marriage and raising one child soon to be two children.
We discuss how not knowing what you don’t know & the naivete of youth will have you blocked from opportunities at a company you think can provide the experience you need all because in youthful assumption, you already committed to a company that ultimately did not have longevity in today’s climate.
Also be sure to support her business Sugarberry Gifting Co. this holiday season.
