  • SEASON II - EPISODE 1: Assumptions of an Independent Woman
    Before you assume, ASK! Far too often do we assume certain things about the next woman, versus simply getting to know that woman or asking. Therefore, Meme and I brought Alize Ringold to the conversation to discuss assumptions she has dealt with and how she has navigated through those situations, while creating multiple streams of income. Not only is Alize a recent graduate of Tuskegee University, but she has also managed to start and operate a women’s clothing boutique coined Meilleur Ami, with her best friend. However, it doesn’t stop here...join the conversation now to gain insight on how this independent woman is creating different streams of incoming and helping other women along the way, while also remaining positive and motivated in a world full of opinions and assumptions!

  • Mid-Week “Convo” w/ Adrianna Clark
    Being that The Career Maven was created to help women find their voice within their career, I thought it would be amazing to speak with Adrianna about women who find themselves spreading themselves too thin. I call this the "Multifaceted Woman;" the woman that has a million great ideas, but can't execute on even one of those ideas.  Sometimes we as women have ideas and we never get one accomplished because we don't commit. This midweek spill with Adrianna is meant to help you think through being multifaceted, by providing tips and valuable experience on how she has managed her corporate position, while also growing a brand.

  • SEASON I - EPISODE 12: Banging Body Today, But What's Tomorrow?

    I think working out, drinking water, staying active, and living a healthier lifestyle sounds and looks good, but it’s not really what people want to do. I am so over the cute pics in workout clothes with zero sweat being displayed. I find it crazy how society promotes these really nice and curvy bodies, but propose no real “how to.” Whether you have a nice body by working out, hitting the table, or doing nothing, I think it’s important to talk about how we take care of it.

    Now-a-days, the things that make you a bad bxtch are just crazy. I want to talk about how important it is for the woman to take care of her body. We carry and nourish the children, prepare the meals for the family, and ultimately, we are the ones looking out for the family health wise. How can women take better care of  their bodies? My friend, Mo Bey, joins this conversation and really drops knowledge. Not only is Mo living a healthier lifestyle, but she owns two businesses, Empress Skin and Herb Muva, and both promote wellness. Mo is like the older sister I never had and I truly appreciate the advice and support that she selflessly gives anytime I am in her presence! This conversation was just another example of how you have to find women around that are like-minded and trying to better themselves, because they can help you along the way!

  • SEASON I -EPSODE 11: Can the Woman Really Have It All?
    Chelsea Nizana joined me for a much needed topic this week. We discussed the woman being multifaceted and how society has a hard time accepting that. I have found that it is not as easy for a woman to expand her portfolio in the way in which a man can. It’s a fact that men don’t have to deal with the pressures of society, as far as having a family and a career. I see a lot of the times how women with children and single mothers sometimes have to put their goals on hold and sacrifice in order to take care of family. I wanted to talk to Chelsea about this, because she is a woman that also faces challenges while being in America on a VISA, but it doesn’t stop her grind. As a woman, she is doing the damn thing and working to have it ALL. Growing up with a single mother, I saw the sacrifices; I saw how it wasn’t always fair for her, which is why I work so hard to manifest all of my goals. Chelsea not only drops gems, but she shows a level of transparency that gives you the ultimate form of respect for not only her, but for her business and all of her future endeavours. Women can and will have it all, as LONG AS YOU WORK FOR IT!

  • SEASON I - EPISODE 10: Meditation
    For years, all I’ve heard is that yoga and meditation are the keys to unlocking a complete shift in mindset, of course for the good. Not to say I doubted it, I simply felt like it wasn’t for me. I didn’t feel like sitting in the same position for 15-45 minutes at a time would contribute anything to my ultimate goal, which is getting money and acquiring success. My thought process was that I needed to be actively putting in work, PERIOD! However, you can’t work properly, if you can’t think effectively. Meditation really sorts my thoughts and helps THE vision become more clear. When I actually gave meditation a real chance with Maria Hampton during our Live conversation via instagram, I realized I needed to possess more focus in my life. Although I can vividly see the life I want for myself, I am always all over the place because I think I can successfully do seven things at once. Throughout this journey, I intend to focus on organizing my goals and my thought process. Meditation has helped me realize I need to work on just that. Do what you have to do to grow. Try something new; you never know how it could change your life. Give this meditation with Maria and me a try, and let me know how you feel after. This is a journey and it’s only the beginning; I promise we are going to the top together!

  • SEASON I -EPISODE 9: Competition Amongst Women
    For this week’s conversation, Chanel Douglas of The Coco’s Jewelry Collection joined, and we had a very uplifting and informative IG Live. The plan was to go live via Instagram and Facebook, and although I didn't make it to Facebook, the conversation was greater than I could have ever imagined. Chanel and I literally met through social media and automatically connected. Chanel and close friend Amber came to Atlanta one weekend and we had the chance to brunch and talk. After that weekend, I would say we have been tight since. She checks on me; we motivate each other, and more importantly, we found a way to bring our talents together with purposes of collaborating. I wanted to show women listening or watching the live that you can be just as beautiful and just as powerful in the presence of a woman who is the exact same, there is no competition. There is no reason to compete with others, we have to compete with old versions of ourselves every day! Instead, it’s “collaboration ova competition,” every single time, no matter what. Check out the convo and be sure to share with another woman who could take something valuable away!

  • What’s Your Perspective on Marriage?
    This week’s episode was all about diving into why I went on Steve Harvey’s new Facebook Watch Series, asking a question, during the infamous “Hey Steve” segment, about marriage. During my time on set, Mr. Harvey interviewed Quality Control executives Pee Thomas and Coach K. These serial entrepreneurs are linked to music moguls such as The Migos, Lil Yatchy, The City Girls, and their company now manages Cardi B. I say this to say, I was surrounded by excellence and fully embraced this opportunity to learn as much as I could. I recorded this episode via my Instagram Live, due to the CO VID-19 virus, and honestly, this was a conversation much overdue. You will hear a little background music, so bare with me lol. Courtney Kyles, mother, wife, and entrepreneur, joined me for this conversation, and she definitely drops gems that every woman can benefit from. Her transparency and confidence radiated through the conversation and I am more than positive that YOU will be able to take something away from her perspective, even if marriage is not for you. Whether you believe in marriage or not, I simply want anyone listening to this episode to define your own version of marriage, while making sure you are happy, no matter what!

  • SEASON I - EPISODE 7:Is It Really the PXSSY with the Power?
    Episode 7 was done a lot differently than other episodes. For this episode, I decided to go LIVE via my Instagram, because with the Coronavirus crisis, it’s been hard to have in-person conversations. Therefore, I decided to not only have one conversation, but I had a community conversation with women that probably have never even listened to my podcast, A Much Needed Conversation. This was an amazing experience for the podcast, because it gave me the ability to not only test a method of engagement, but it gave me the opportunity to spread the platform to people who aren’t really familiar with podcasts. Although this was a community conversation, my sister and I led the convo by digging deeper into the question, “Is It Really the PXSSY with the Power?” My sister, Sameerah Rice, is way beyond her time. She strikes me as an older woman more than often, simply because of her mindset. She is the smartest woman I know when it comes to being a confident woman. Sameerah is my diary, because her actions and her talk align. Not only does she say what she would and would not do, but she actually backs it up. Most women aren’t like this. They have the big talk, but are they really walking in that talk? NO. This conversation was all about embracing femininity and discussing other ways to use “PXSSY POWER,” in a positive way. Check out the conversation and let me know your thoughts!
