The Bougie ExecutiveAuthor: K.Carter
This isnt another hustle podcast. The Bougie Executive is for the woman building something real, the CEO mom, the faith-driven entrepreneur, the baddie who refuses to choose between her family and her ambition because she knows she was built for both. Hosted by Kareesha Carter, founder of The Bougie Executive Agency and a marketer who scaled her brand to six figures in 30 days, this show pulls back the curtain on what it actually takes to build something profitable, peaceful, and legacy-level. New episodes every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 9 AM PT. Mondays are for business strategy. The pricing, the closing, the systems, the real conversations you would normally pay thousands for. Wednesdays are for life behind the business. Motherhood, burnout-proofing, the schedule, and the truth about what it takes to build something while raising a human. Fridays are for faith. The spiritual side of being a CEO, the prayers, the mindset, the hard truths about building something that lasts. Plus guest interviews with women in business, mothers, leaders, and voices that need to be in your ears. If you have been sitting on a business, a book, a pivot, or a version of yourself you have been afraid to come back to, this is your sign. The world is not waiting for the perfect version of you. Its waiting for the real one. Pull up. Press play. Lets build. Language: en Genres: Business, Entrepreneurship Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it Trailer: |
