You deserve to do work that feeds your heart, mind, and wallet.
Did you know August is Professional Speakers Month, Black Business Month, and American Adventures Month? Three very different observances on the surface, but here’s the message they all have in common: Being willing to take up space. To use your voice. To build something of your own. To go somewhere you haven’t been before. […]
This blog post is going to be short and sweet. Today is Wednesday, July 29, 2026, and it is day 90 of my 90-Day Momentum Journey. I accomplished my goal! Every day for the last 90 days, I posted at least one video of myself showing my face and using my voice. I challenged […]
If it were as simple as “just say no,” more women would. High-performing women are told to just “set better boundaries” and the advice ends there. As if the problem is a lack of confidence.

And on the outside, it looks like you’re “on top of things.” But inside, it feels like you can never fully exhale. Because there’s always something […]
“If I don’t do it, it won’t get done.” Have you ever caught yourself saying that? Not out loud necessarily. Maybe just in your head. As you volunteered for another project. Solved another problem. Stayed late. Checked on everyone else. Picked up what someone else dropped. Handled what no one else seemed willing to […]
June is: • Professional Wellness Month • National Safety Month • Great Outdoors Month And at the intersection of all three is a leadership truth we don’t talk about enough: The environments we create shape the outcomes we experience. As leaders, we often focus on goals, performance, and results. But sustainable success isn’t built […]
