How To Monetize Your Passion: Lessons From The Founder Of Focus One College With Yolanda Wright
Description
What happens when a lifetime of experience—from growing up in Los Angeles to rigorous academic training in psychology, and deep personal experience as a caregiver—converges with a singular purpose? For Yolanda Wright, the answer is Focus One College, an organization changing the trajectory of young people's lives. With a stunning 90% success rate of students receiving acceptance into one of their top three colleges, Wright’s work proves that purpose and profit are not mutually exclusive. We dive into her unique philosophy: challenging students (and their parents) to identify their passions, and then creating a strategic plan to literally "monetize" those passions through the college application process. Read on to learn how Wright built a thriving, successful business born out of her deep commitment to advocacy and holistic support.
