In this episode, Tonya talks to Shakera Jones of BlackGirlsDineToo - a lifestyle brand, blog, and social media space - who serves as a guide to the wonderful world of high-end food and wine. Shakera shares her love for both the food and wine industry, as well as the Healthcare IT space which is her full-time career. As a Black woman, she describes the importance of representation in the tech space, and how impactful it is for her to have a seat at the table to drive inclusive strategies in the industry. She explains how she organically fell into her career after leaving the Financial and Higher Ed industries. Overcoming impostor syndrome is also a topic that she and Tonya dive into, including how Shakera overcame it fairly recently. This discussion takes a number of twists and turns, so this is definitely one that you won't want to miss!  Shakera is the perfect demonstration of pursuing your passion and doing everything that brings you joy both personally and professionally. As you'll hear in her story, this doesn't always mean that you have to drop your full-time career to pursue what you love; you can do both with incredible success and achieve fulfillment in many different aspects of your life simultaneously. Enjoy Shakera's inspiring journey, and encouraging advice.
