Suga, the middle gets messy. But that doesn’t mean you’re off track.

In this episode, I’m sharing what it feels like to hold the vision when life is lifing.

From TPCCON to Bali to real-life burnout, I’m talking rest, faith, and how to keep going when it’s not cute or easy.

You’re not stuck. You’re growing through it.

In this episode of The Patieaux Podcast, Tara L. Paige gets real about the silent rules Black women have been handed for generations — be quiet, be helpful, don’t take up too much space. But not today. Not in 2025.
 From boardrooms to backyard patios, it’s time to reclaim our space with confidence and clarity. Tara shares her own journey of shrinking to fit and the moment she chose expansion over acceptance.

This is your invitation to stop dimming, stop apologizing, and start owning your voice, your vision, and your value.

Are you performing leadership or living it?

Leadership isn’t about pretending to have all the answers. It’s about showing up, being real, and being willing to learn as you go.

We’ve all felt the weight of expectations, especially as leaders. But here’s the truth— you don’t have to carry it all alone. Ask for help. Connect with others. Take off the baggage, and start showing up as your authentic self.

Leadership is about being YOU—unapologetically.
