What happens when a woman finally decides her truth is more important than keeping others comfortable? In this powerful conversation with author and visionary Roanae Kent, we witness the transformation that occurs when silence gives way to authentic storytelling.

Roanae shares the emotional journey behind her newly released book "Her Grace and Grit Anthology," a collection of stories from Black women about fortitude, empowerment, and resilience. With remarkable candor, she explains how years of accepting disrespect and lacking boundaries led to a breaking point—one that ultimately sparked her healing journey and this powerful anthology.

"People started dropping like flies," Roanae reveals, describing what happened when she began setting boundaries and stopped being "a punching bag" for those around her. This raw admission resonates deeply with anyone who has feared the relational consequences of standing in their truth. The ten-month journey from manuscript to published book wasn't just about production timelines but required emotional processing, courage, and healing.

Most powerfully, Roanae identifies her grandchildren as the catalyst for breaking generational cycles. "When I knew I was having grandchildren, that was my actual turning point," she shares, highlighting how healing becomes even more urgent when we consider its impact across generations. Her vulnerability serves as both mirror and roadmap for listeners contemplating their own healing journeys.

Whether you're considering sharing your own story or simply seeking inspiration to set healthier boundaries, this episode delivers both practical wisdom and emotional resonance. Grab your copy of "Her Grace and Grit Anthology" anywhere books are sold, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Walmart.com, or visit HerGraceAndGritBook.com to learn more about Rone's upcoming book signings and special book box release.

Tiffany A. Greenhood introduces the Publishing Black Chamber of Commerce, a groundbreaking organization advocating for self-published Black authors who are building legacy brands and ownership on their own terms. She shares powerful strategies for authors to position themselves as authorities in their field rather than remaining hidden after publication.

• Self-publishing a book automatically makes you a publisher – you don't need millions of sales to claim this title
• Authors can expand their revenue streams by offering publishing services, coaching, and other expertise-based offerings
• Articulate your value proposition in one clear sentence – "if you can't articulate it, people can't pay you for it"
• Your signature expertise equals your book plus your backstory plus your solution
• Professional bios and functional links across all platforms are essential for credibility
• Create expert content addressing pain points rather than random posts
• Make yourself findable and bookable with speaker pages, media kits, and professional headshots
• Pitch yourself to podcasts, panels, and publications of all sizes – visibility is visibility
• "You didn't write your book to stay in the background. You wrote it to become the go-to voice in your space"

Before publishing your book, set up a pre-order campaign to start making money and building buzz months in advance of your release date. Your voice and story have real monetary value—don't leave that money on the table by waiting until after publication to start earning.

• Pre-order campaigns require only a book cover, landing page, payment link, and release date
• Invest in professional cover design—avoid generic images and amateur photography that signal "unpublished"
• Choose a brandable title that could work for conferences, workshops, or other business extensions
• Register for ISBN (from Bowker) and Library of Congress Control Number before publication
• Create a professional online presence with at least a landing page to sell your pre-orders
• Treat your self-published book as a legitimate business product, not a hobby
• Early purchasers trust you with their money—reward them with special incentives or signed copies
• Use social media strategically, focusing on video content for platforms like TikTok and YouTube

Tiffany A. Greenhood exposes the predatory practices of vanity publishing companies and shares how Black authors can avoid contract traps that steal their profits and ownership rights.

• Vanity publishers like AuthorHouse and Exlibris offer publishing packages from $500-$15,000 that provide minimal value
• These companies take up to 90% of royalties while charging authors triple the printing cost for their own books
• When publishing with vanity companies, authors don't own their ISBN or often even their book cover
• Authors should always read contracts carefully and understand what rights they're signing away
• Self-publishing gives authors complete ownership and control over their intellectual property
• Global distribution means your book is available worldwide, not just on Amazon
• Marketing begins before you finish writing your book, not after publication
• Being a New York Times bestseller only requires selling 6,000 books in the first week

• Set up professional systems like Stripe payment processing and Stan's Store to be ready when opportunities arise

In this episode, Tiffany A. Greenhood delivers an essential masterclass on intellectual property protection for authors and creative entrepreneurs, covering copyright, trademark, and wealth-building strategies.

• Copyright automatically belongs to you once your idea is put in tangible form (written down or recorded)
• Copyright protection lasts for your lifetime plus 70 years after death
• Register copyright at Copyright.gov for strongest legal protection
• Books, digital products, journals, social media posts, and graphic designs can all be copyrighted
• Trademark protects brand names, business names, podcast names, and event titles
• Book titles cannot be copyrighted or trademarked, but book series can be trademarked
• Registering an LLC does not protect your business name nationally—you need a trademark
• Trademark registration fees start at $250-350 per class when filing yourself
• Beware of companies claiming to "patent" your ideas—verify they specialize in the right intellectual property protection

Protect what you create: Copyright protects your work. Trademark protects your brand. IP builds your wealth.
