She's Not Done Yet

  1. All Episodes
  2. S3 E5: Cheryl Cooper and Kisha Solomon

Oct 25, 2023

In this episode of She's Not Done Yet: Conversations with women over 50, I (Becky Berry) talk with my friend, Cheryl Cooper, and her friend, Kisha Solomon.

Cheryl and I met when we started our coaching businesses back in 2015/2016. We've been each others' orbit ever since. This was my first time meeting Kisha.

Cheryl and Kisha represent a cross-generational friendship, like me and my friend Kyle (Season 3 Episode 1).

Cheryl is one of the most grounded, motivated, and intentional women I know. Her deep experience in life and work makes her a fabulous coach and great friend. Plus, she has a great sense of humor and knows all the best places to eat! 

I loved getting to know Kisha through this interview. Like Cheryl, she's grounded, motivated, and so intentional. I also love her energy and sense of humor!

In this episode Cheryl, Kisha, and I and I talk about making friends at work, acquiring mentors, and how those friendships both lift us up and inform how we move forward.

Some notable moments:

  • Being a black woman in corporate America and how to survive and even thrive (spoiler alert - it's about friendships!).
  • A conversation about the importance of relationships - other than romantic ones!
  • How it feels to come back together after not seeing people for a while.
  • Being a role model for intentionally single women.
  • How our friends reflect us back to ourselves - as we could be.
  • One of the best things in the best friendships is the validation of our self worth we receive from those friends.
  • A chat about the value of the complementary points-of-view we can encounter in cross -generational friendships - particularly around entrepreneurship.
