Finding Your Authentic Path: Embracing Your Voice as a Woman of Color

Embracing Your Voice

In our inaugural episode, we dove deep into the reasons behind starting this podcast and my personal journey as a woman of color navigating spaces that often didn't encourage my authentic voice. I shared stories of my African immigrant parents who defied expectations to carve their own paths in life, inspiring me to do the same.

Despite pressures to conform to a traditional career, I pursued my passion for making an impact through politics and public policy. However, the professional world wasn't always welcoming to my ideas or identity, leading to experiences of microaggressions and dismissal in government, political campaigns, and nonprofits.

The rise of movements like Black Lives Matter and Me Too shed light on the systemic issues women of color have long faced in the workplace, reinforcing my own decision to pivot and start my own business. This episode is a call to all ambitious women of color to embrace their unique voices, share their experiences, and build the fulfilling life and careers they want while being unapologetically themselves

We'll be exploring the highs and lows of our careers, discussing everything from achieving dream jobs to dealing with workplace trauma and imposter syndrome. Whether it's through entrepreneurship, running for office, or finding a job that truly values you, this podcast is about building a community where we can all thrive unapologetically.

So, if you're ready to join a group of driven women of color on a journey to embrace our voices and find joy in our work and lives, you're in the right place. Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review, and I can't wait to share more with you. Talk soon, y'all!
