When We Fight!  We Win! It’s Not Just a Presidential Slogan, It’s a Motto for Black Women in 2024 and Beyond.

Tune in to this dynamic conversation with Monique Pearson, international motivational speaker, mindset coach, military strategist, veteran and travel expert and travelpreneur.  We discuss critical leadership skills that we can learn from Madame Vice President, Soon-To-Be-President Kamala Harris.  Yes, we said it.  And we are standing on business. This year started off with a bang, and many attacks on Black women in high places of leadership from the rise and fall of Dr. Claudine Gray to the continuous active erosion of fundamental civil rights progress, we quickly saw VP Kamala Harris reignite the Hope of America with her unique background that helped her make an unlikely political ascension from District Attorney to now just a heartbeat away from the most powerful position in the world.  Against all odds, we discuss the unique power and preparation that we can all harness to rise in our own spheres of influence and to be our authentic selves.  Ladies, it’s time to “Pop Out” and show the world who you have always been in this pulsating conversation to help you walk in who you are, who you were called to be, and who you are becoming.  You betta walk!

Join me for this inspiring conversation with Deborah Jane Burke, a dynamic Hollywood Film & TV writer and producer.  Fun fact:  as a student at Stanford, Deborah wrote and produced a Hip Hopera that starred Issa Rae as a student!  Since then, she has worked with networks including FOX, TBS, BET, PBS and so much more.

Deborah's latest project is a bit strange shall we say...stranger than fiction but inspired by real life!

Deborah takes us on an audio journey with her current project --the award-winning independent film Strange Fruit: The Hip-hopera. Find out how a recurring nightmare turned into an artistic venture and tells a tale of contemporary and historic truth that we can all learn from.  It's not just a film; it's a modern approach to storytelling in which we tell our own stories to ignite critical conversations about the construct of race in our country, all while doing so to the musical beats and lyrics of hip hop.  Broadway here we come!

A child of Guyanese immigrants who were one of the only Black families in suburban Orange County, Cali; Ya’ll the neighbors couldn’t handle it and moved! Their loss, and our gain, for the breathtaking resilience and brilliance that is Deborah Jane Burke of House of Deborah Jane Studios.  Check out her film and how you can support her work on the Big Screen.
