Women: Securing the Bag with Mercedes Benson

DJ, Creative, influencer and all round Dope Black Woman, Mercedes Benson joins Leanne, Roshan and Liv this week. Mercedes talks about how she broke into the creative sphere, managing expectations of traditional parents with a non traditional career and her take on 'hustle culture.' She dives deep into how she became a self taught DJ, the challenges she faces navigating the music industry as a black woman and her plans to scale her social enterprise SocialFixt. She drops so many gems of knowledge, this is a great listen! The Dope Black Women Podcast is all about bringing black women together to discuss the topics that matter to us, connect and support with each other and through our digital sisterhood.   Your hosts are: Leanne Levers, Roshan Roberts and Olivia Cope.
