Episode Notes

On this episode of Black & Published, Nikesha is speaking with author, Monica M. Brown, about her book, Only One: How to Be a Bad Ass Boss in Corporate America. Monica is a deeply-accomplished and results driven senior executive with 20+ years of experience in tech and has worked for several Fortune 500 companies including AT&T, Comcast NBCUniversal, and SiriusXM Pandora.

In this conversation, Monica open's up about how she switched from a career in print journalism to tech, code-switching and absorbing micro-aggressions so often that it bled over into her writing, and how she hopes that no matte, she's always remembered as a motivator to help other people go after their dreams. There's also a good keekee about wine, martini's, and red bottoms which helps Monica maintain the balance between her professional persona and her naturally creative character.
