Kelly Burton Doesn't Want You to Be a One-Woman Wonder

On today’s episode of Girlboss Radio, Avery sits down with Kelly Burton, the CEO of Black Innovation Alliance, an institution dedicated to closing the racial wealth gap. Kelly is also an author, mentor and speaker. Kelly unpacks the “one-woman wonder” trope, talks about the concept of radical collaboration and offers some advice on how to actually use LinkedIn to power your career (Kelly just so happens to be in the top one percent of LinkedIn creators). Kelly and Avery’s conversation is filled with insightful takeaways and candid personal anecdotes—from breakups to failed businesses.
