HER With Amena Brown

HER Replay: That Time I...Quit My Job

In 2007 I quit my corporate job to pursue writing and performing full time...and promptly went broke. Over the years I learned some hard lessons on what it means to be an artist and an entrepreneur. Listen in to hear my rough and tumble journey to where my career is today and my tips for how to pursue your dreams whether you are working your dream job or not.
