On Butterflies of Wisdom today, Best-Selling Author, Win C welcomes Elayne Fluker. Elayne has always been a storyteller. And now, as host of the Support is Sexy podcast for women entrepreneurs and CEO of Chic Rebellion Media — which is a multimedia company that empowers women to control their narratives — she is committed to creating spaces for other women to share their stories.In 2012, Elayne founded Chic Rebellion TV, an online network that features videos and web series exploring the diverse perspectives of women of color around the world. In 2015, after empathizing with other women entrepreneurs who spoke about the sometimes lonely journey of entrepreneurship and seeing a desire in the market for a community where women entrepreneurs can connect, be open and work together to build profitable businesses and purposeful lives, Elayne launched her “Support is Sexy” movement with a mission of reminding women that “having it all doesn’t mean doing it all alone.” As host of the Support is Sexy podcast (which features brand new episodes five days a week, has more than 75,000 downloads and reaches listeners in 82 countries), Elayne has interviewed more than 150 inspiring women entrepreneurs around the world, who get real about their own journeys — where they started, when they struggled and how they still made it happen. The podcast has been featured in the Philadelphia Tribune as one that is diversifying the podcast landscape, and in Essence magazine as a must-listen, transformational podcast.
