I LOVE the new direction and I was so close to unsubscribing towards the, unknown to me, end of NB

What an inspiration! I've been a follower of Necole's since Necole Bitchie and I am so proud of the transition and the stories now that you find on the site. So inspiring. Thanks so much

This is so real. I remember seeing the pictures from her birthday and thinking wow she looks so happy. She is doing the damn thang. Not saying she's not but you wouldn't have ever know she was going through it. I’m proud of you girl…you are doing a great job 

This was a very DOPE interview. Thanks for sharing, looking frward to more. Necole story is great.

This is my second time listening to this episode. I get so many nuggets of inspiration from Necole. Thank you Sakita for all of your episodes. I love all of your work.

soooo I have felt this WHOLE interview.  Everything that Necole just said resonated with me and how I feel about my business 😩😩

A few weeks ago, I tweeted "when it comes to promoting your business, don't be afraid to be annoying." It went viral, with mixed reactions. On this episode, I breakdown the nuances of the statement and why it isn't actually about being annoying, but about shifting the negative perceptions we all have around self-promotion. 

I also announce that the first product in The Sakita Method collection: the 'Done is Better Than Perfect' journal is available for pre-order NOW at ItsTheSakitaMethod.com/shop.

Ep. 56: In Business, Don't Be Afraid to Be Annoying

Rochelle Graham-Campbell is the Co-Founder and CEO of Alikay Naturals. 

As BlackOnyx77, Rochelle was one of the first SIX women on YouTube talking about natural hair. After big chopping her hair for the second time, she realized that she needed to grow it back quickly and decided to make a growth oil using her Jamaican heritage as a guide. Soon people began asking her if they could purchase her oil, so she took $100 in tips she earned during a shift at Olive Garden and made her first batch and soon Alikay Naturals was born. On this episode, she talks about that moment and what it has taken to grow Alikay into a multi-million dollar enterprise.

Sometimes people will do a less than stellar job as a way to hurt their boss or place of work, when in actuality what you do and how you show up will always be a reflection of you and end up hurting you the most in the long run.
