In this solo episode of the Black Canadian Creators Podcast, host Sherley introduces herself and shares a powerful and personal message for creators, dreamers, and entrepreneurs: you don’t need a blueprint—just a deep why, your people, and the courage to start where you are.
Sherley reflects share who she is, a content creator you should know and on how the Black Canadian Creators platform began: no logo, no strategy, no budget—but a real need for community and visibility. From a humble Facebook group to a multi-platform movement, she proves that momentum beats perfection and consistency beats complexity.
This episode is a heartfelt nudge for anyone holding back on launching their blog, podcast, app, book, or brand. If you’re waiting for permission, this is it. Start now. Start small. Start scrappy.y.
✅ A behind-the-scenes look at how Black Canadian Creators began
✅ Why perfection is the enemy of momentum
✅ What happens when you build before you’re “ready”
✅ A call to creators to build out loud and share the journey
“I didn’t have a five-year plan. I didn’t even have a logo. But I had a gut feeling that if I needed this space, someone else needed it too.”
This episode is a nudge, a permission slip, and a challenge. Whether it’s a blog, a podcast, a newsletter, an app—or just the start of a dream—start where you are. Let people witness your growth. You don’t need to be ready. You just need to be real.
