The Power of Perseverance: Kay Bodude's Journey to Success.Kay reminds us change only happens when staying the same becomes more painful than changing.
Kay Bodude doesn't believe in being a statistic. Her transformative journey from teenage motherhood to becoming a successful healthcare entrepreneur, business owner, and community leader offers a masterclass in resilience and purposeful living.
As the daughter of a preacher and one of fourteen siblings, Kay's foundation in faith and service shaped her path to nursing—a career her hospital-housekeeper mother had envisioned for one of her children. Though Kay describes taking "the long road" through various healthcare roles before earning her MSN, her story powerfully demonstrates how determination overcomes obstacles. "It doesn't matter when you make it, as long as you make it," she shares with authentic conviction.
What truly distinguishes Kay's story is how she's balanced raising seven children while building four successful businesses and a nonprofit organization. Her entrepreneurial philosophy is refreshingly straightforward: "Do what you know." This practical wisdom guided her from selling nursing scrubs to developing healthcare enterprises that create both profit and community impact. Underpinning everything is her powerful motto: "Free: Finally Reaching Exponential Expectations," which embodies her belief that meaningful change happens when "the pain of staying the same becomes worse than the pain of change."
Kay's passion for financial literacy emerged as a central mission in her work. Through investment groups, credit union board service, and advocacy, she's dedicated to building generational wealth in minority communities. "Money is a tool that you use to assist whatever your purpose is," she explains, challenging listeners to consider how they're using their resources for meaningful impact.
Perhaps most inspiring is Kay's Women Empowerment initiative, which honors the "everyday woman"—the unsung heroes whose contributions often go unacknowledged. What started locally has expanded internationally, with events across multiple states and countries, including Ghana, where Kay describes finding the profoundly healing experience of simply "taking up space" without racial consciousness.
