•ABOUT BRIEANNA•
Brieanna Lightfoot Smith is the author of The Black Girl’s Guide to Living on Purpose and Founder of the Black Girls with Purpose movement. Brieanna has worked with over 1000 young women over the course of her career and used her experience in the New Orleans education system to design a workshop style curriculum that covers topics such as identity, healthy self-esteem, time management, and goal-setting. This past summer Brie partnered with the Essence Fest Day of Service to present a Boss Up! workshop on entrepreneurship for teens. After battling against suicidal thoughts as a teenager, Brie emerged as a twenty-something with a story to tell. She has now dedicated her life to educating young women on the benefits of intentional living. When she’s not talking to women about purpose and identity, you can find Brie working on her next book or spending time with her family.
