What 3 words do YOU choose to describe + define you? I’ll go first!
“OTHER BROWN GIRL” (circa 2020)
“NEXT THING JING” (circa 2025)
My 2 top questions from my clients + executive entrepreneur workshops:
“How do I build a brand that feels, looks, and sounds like me?”
“How do I tell my story with authenticity + vulnerability?”
What “safe spaces" help you step out of your comfort zone?
To speak and write like no one else is in the room?
Online. Offline. Unedited. Unfiltered.
Writing your story down is as powerful asspeaking your truth. Owning what makes “you you” with total strangers Stepping out of comfort zones (a.k.a old, outdated stories, patterns you’ve outgrown)
On today’s episode, we're diving deep into:
→ How words evolve personal brands, life stories, and movements
→ How a powerful OPEN MIC night restored my faith in humanity
→ How Literary Cleveland sparked my OTHER BROWN GIRL era
→ How a friend’s “I double dare you to do an IMPROV night!” launched me
→ How reading my senior poem at a Board of Education meeting ignited me
→ How writing and reciting my dad’s eulogy inspires + guides me
→ How speaking up + out against alpha abuse helps others
→ How this “OBG” is re-defining “woke” word watch lists
(a.k.a. free blogging = free podcasting = free to be me)
