    Dreams Don’t Build Themselves: Why You Need to Speak Up

    Have you ever caught yourself hesitating to ask for what you really want — whether it's at work, at home, or even with your friends? It's easy to assume people just know what we need, but the truth is... they don’t. The good news? Speaking up doesn’t have to feel intimidating. In my latest episode of The Brave Collective, I share why voicing your needs is crucial — and how it can be the key to unlocking your biggest goals. Plus, we’ll talk about the one simple question you should be asking yourself. Here are a few takeaways from the episode:✅ Clarity creates momentum. When you know what you want (and can communicate it clearly), others are more willing — and able — to support you.✅ Your voice matters. Speaking up isn’t just about getting what you need; it’s about building trust and fostering meaningful connections.✅ Small asks lead to big wins. You don’t have to start with a bold declaration — sometimes small, intentional conversations can create powerful shifts. If you’ve been holding back, consider this your nudge to start advocating for yourself. Because dreams don’t build themselves — but when you invite others in, amazing things can happen. 👉 Listen to the full episode now!

    Diversified leadership; empowering women's voices, and making your own way

    In this episode of The Brave Collective, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with the incredible Latasha Ferguson, a powerhouse in the world of leadership and education. Latasha is a senior leader & educator, leadership coach, and founder of the Mahogany Table Community, where she helps Black women professionals reclaim their time, well-being, and joy. She's got over 20 years of experience, and her insights on leading with grace, harmony, and intention are absolutely transformative. We dive deep into her personal journey of navigating leadership as a woman of color, the challenges of being the "only one in the room," and how she found her voice to create spaces for others. Don’t miss how she turned her passion into a movement with the Mahogany Table and what she calls “the gathering of the only’s.” And, bonus, if you love British TV and soul-hugging food as much as Latasha does, you'll feel an extra connection! Latasha is real, raw, and so full of wisdom - what an honor to host her this week. I was so encouraged after this conversation and I know you will be, too.
