This is a podcast dedicated to the underestimated founder looking to take the leap from want-to-preneur and entrepreneur. Whatever is holding you back, whether real or imagined, we look to share our “Freed Stories” -- stories of people taking the entrepreneurial leap -- as inspiration and acknowledgment that while the road to entrepreneurship can be lonely you don't have to travel it alone. We hope that in sharing “Freed Stories,” that you will gain some tangible tips on how to get “Freed” yourself. It’s our mission to provide support and community for those working their 5-9 side hustles and jotting down their “some-day” business plans. We’re navigating the journey ourselves and we’d love to take you along with us. Ready to get Freed?

We welcome Freed fellow Antonia Royal-Whitmore to the podcast in this episode so that she can share her Freed Story! Antonia is the founder of Mind of Gold, a publishing company whose main mission is to educate, empower, and entertain via media and literature. Antonia has loved to write since she was very young, having realized just how much she truly loved to write after having done it for a little while. She has an undergraduate degree in Psychology which she marries with Mind of Gold via self-help books such as I'm Calling You Out and Dear Black Parents, both of which can be purchased from the Mind of Gold website!
Antonia gives us some helpful advice such as how you need to be patient when it comes to making your dreams come true, to not give up because the work is worth it. She also encourages us to find a mentor, someone with more experience in the field. She reveals her superpowers to be her creativity and her knack for coming up with solutions, and she even reveals new projects on the horizon, including a game!
We had such fun talking with Antonia about her story, and we hope that you have as much fun hearing it! We look forward to catching up with her again in the future, but until then, be sure to check out her website and her books online, and be sure to continue tuning in to Freed Stories as we continue to feature more guests who share their Freed stories – stories of success, failure, lessons, goals, hopes, and so forth!
