Growing up in East London in the 70s and 80s, comedian, author, and former engineer, Gina Yashere is no stranger to navigating hard times. A troublemaker since birth, Gina has always been disruptive by nature - refusing to take no for an answer and always very clear about what she wanted her life to look like and fully committed to doing her part to see it through to fruition. Gina has mastered the art of creating her own opportunities for success. Courage oozes from her pores and comes through in her stories of lived experiences. We laughed a lot on this episode and were truly able to find beauty in the grind. Persistence, betting on yourself, and taking responsibility for your own success can literally change your life, just ask Gina.
