In this powerful episode, Dr. Tonya Williams reminds us that our seat at the table isn't an accident, it's a divine assignment. It's time to stop shrinking, start owning, and realize you bring something the room desperately needs.
With her signature warmth, humor, and real-talk wisdom, Dr. Tonya walks listeners through how to shift from having a seat to owning it, why shrinking to fit hurts your purpose, and how to navigate rooms that feel intimidating.
