Dia Wall is one of the realest. Periodt.

This sista is what I call part of the “Soul Patrol” on KSHB. As an award-winning journalist, Dia does her duty reporting the news. But she does something else I admire.

She knows her agency.

Dia shows up in her space unapologetically. She’s not just a face at the table but uses her voice and personal perspective, bringing attention to what impacts us – as women, mothers, community members and Black people. Representation without voice is only a checked box; there’s no power. We see Dia use her voice on-air but she brings that same passion behind the scenes. She is bold. An advocate. Authentically Dia at all times.

That gives her power.

That’s why I had to sit down with the sista. Dia is more than a professional host, storyteller, writer and speaker. She’s also a fervent leader who believes in connecting women through our shared experiences and being real.

And sis delivers in her book, “The UnHappiest One.”

While it can appear some of us have it all, many still feel empty. If you can relate, this is a convo you don’t want to miss. Dia keeps it a band about her life: highs and lows, crazy keyboard thugs, fights with her hubby, dealing with her inner self-critic and more. And although she says she’s not a preacher, sis needs an offering because she delivers a real sermon! Lean in as Dia Wall shares lessons learned and more about her "sort of" memoir, The Unhappiest One.
