Rosetta Thurman on Non-Profits, Blogging, and Life as a Happy Black Woman

November 8, 2010

I'm very excited to share a recent interview I did with the wonderful Rosetta Thurman. For those of you who don't know, Rosetta is a phenomenal young, black woman who is taking both the non-profit and blogging worlds by storm. Having just released her first book, How to Become a Non-Profit Rockstar—50 Ways to Accelerate Your Career, Rosetta is the go-to author, speaker, and consultant for young non-profit leadership.In addition to her non-profit work with her company, Thurman Consulting, Rosetta pontificates about the happier side of the black, female experience with her second blog, Happy Black Woman. On Happy Black Woman, Rosetta examines everything from online dating as a Black woman to starting your own business. Rosetta even gave a fabulous mention to Think & Grow Chick on her recent list of 50 Blogs Written by Happy Black Women.In this interview we talk about Rosetta's rise to non-profit and blogging "fame", getting your side hustle on, natural hair, the online dating scene, and her general interest in personal development for black women.If you haven't checked out Rosetta until now, consider this my hearty endorsement of her. I have had the pleasure of picking Rosetta's brain in person over lunch and online over Skype. She is someone I have personally learned much from; I think anyone who listens to this podcast is in for the same treat. Enjoy!For the full audio, please check out the podcast on iTunes and Soundcloud[podcast]You can follow-up with Rosetta at RosettaThurman.com, HappyBlackWoman.com, and on twitter @happyblackwoman***P.S.—I'm on a roll with the interviews this week. Check back this Wednesday to see my exclusive interview with Kai, the founder and publisher of Maneandchic.com.
