  • Face It, Forgive It, Fix It. Financial Therapy with Crystal Gunn

    Crystal Gunn is a Financial Strategist, Small Business Advisor, and Community Activist. And that's only half of the story. During this conversation we talk about her personal journey and storms that led her to work with women to repair their finances. Crystal explains how we all have a financial relationship that isn't defined by us. Much of her approach begins with financial therapy to help people find the root of their problem and form better habits. Crystal is contributing to #WomensHistoryMonth every single day.

  • Building Unshakeable Confidence - with Nakisha Hicks

    Nakisha Hicks is the dynamic Founder of The ElevateHer, where she helps to elevate and transform organizations and individuals. We talk about women checking all of the boxes, but lacking the access many times to ascend in their careers. We discuss the power of who you know, how to build a business case to quantify your value to your employer, and having your "mirror moments" when you take an honest, objective look at your strengths and weaknesses. Nakisha also provides some keys to building unshakeable confidence. Such a wonderful conversation as we celebrate Women's History Month!

  • Black History and May Angelou - with Dr. Neferiatiti Lewis

    Dr. Neferiatiti (Holt) Lewis is a frequent collaborator of mine and we were able to spend time during #BlackHistoryMonth to reflect on Maya Angelou as well as Neffie's wonderful mother. Our intent was to discuss Dr. Angelou's story and contributions, but we ended with Dr. Lewis paying respect to her mother who recently passed.

  • Networking On Purpose - with Erika Monae

    Erika is the Founder of The Erika Monae Group, where she works as a Executive Coach and Social Capital Strategist. In this episode, we talk about something that is near and dear to both of us: Networking. We talk about strategy, knowing the value you bring to the table, and taking genuine interest in the people you are talking to. There's no "one size fits all" approach to networking and you're probably doing more of it than you think. But probably not as well as you could be..

  • Your Contributions Matter - Focus on Things Within Your Control

    We all have different reasons for getting up in the morning. Our particular "Why." You have made it to this point, please make sure that you are making contributions to the world. Most of us will never be known for changing the world, but we all have a part to play. Our contributions are our ripples. And some of these ripples will become waves, but that part is out of our control. Just continue to focus on your inputs and let God take care of the rest!

  • Get Strategic for Your Next Promotion

    I was reading Harvard Business Review article by Michael Wenderoth on how to get a promotion. Many times we want things to be simple, but honestly, what is simple that's worth having? Yes, there may be some political "hoops" to jump through because very rarely is hard work alone enough. Get strategic for your next opportunity.
