    She Made History in Boone County — The Monica White Story | Ep 82

    Send us Fan Mail Monica White spent 14 years building expertise in human capital, compliance, and operations before stepping into a Boone County Clerk race that no Black woman had ever entered. As the founder of COIL Solutions LLC and the first Black woman on the ballot for Boone County Clerk, Monica has built her entire life around one conviction — foundation over fame. In this episode Victoria Odekomaya sits down with Monica to talk about what that actually looks like in business, in politics, and in a community that was not always designed with her in mind.   This conversation covers the real work of human capital and compliance, what it means to modernize a county clerk's office using an HR mindset, how Monica responded when racism showed up in her campaign with complete dignity, and what her story means for every woman who has been building something real while staying invisible.   What you will learn: • What COIL stands for and why building from the inside out is the only foundation that lasts • Why HR is a resource for humans — not just a tool for managing exits • What Monica's platform means for Boone County residents, rural farmers, and small businesses • How she became the first Black woman on the ballot for Boone County Clerk and what that decision created • What “not fame, foundation” means when you live it every single day This episode is a reminder that leadership is not always loud — sometimes it looks like consistency, resilience, and doing the work long before anyone notices. 🎧 Watch the full episode, share it with someone who needs this encouragement, and follow Monica’s journey below.

    Why Your Brand Still Isn’t Working (And What You’re Missing) | Epi 81

    Send us Fan Mail Most people think branding starts with visuals. Logos, colors, websites. But that’s not where strong brands are built. In this episode, I sit down with Danielle Marsh, founder of Brand Vision Consulting, and we break down what branding actually looks like when it’s done right. We talk through the Brand Equation:  Identity + Tools + Presence + Experience And more importantly, what that actually means for you as a business owner. Because if your brand feels inconsistent, unclear, or disconnected from the level you operate at, it’s usually not a marketing problem. It’s an identity problem. Inside this conversation, we break down:  How your history shapes your beliefs and your values  Why your messaging feels scattered even when you’re good at what you do  How to align your brand across your content, team, and customer experience  And how to start creating content that actually reflects who you are This is the kind of work that changes everything, because once your identity is clear, your message becomes stronger, your content becomes easier, and your brand starts attracting the right people. 📺 WATCH ON YOUTUBE ABOUT Victoria Odekomaya is a Nigerian American entrepreneur, speaker, and content marketing strategist on a mission to help business owners grow their business, brand, and legacy through the power of storytelling and strategic content marketing.

    This Is Why Self-Care Isn’t Fixing Your Burnout | Ep 80

    Send us Fan Mail Burnout isn’t just about doing too much—it’s often a sign that something deeper is missing. In this episode of the Own Your Brand Show, Victoria Odekomaya sits down with wellness consultant and therapist Kat Nick to unpack what burnout really means for entrepreneurs, business owners, and growing teams. Together, they explore why self-care alone isn’t enough, how workplace culture directly impacts mental health, and what leaders can do to create an environment where people actually thrive—not just survive. If you’re building a business, leading a team, or simply trying to balance work and life without feeling overwhelmed, this conversation will give you practical insights you can apply right away. Kat also shares her framework for preventing burnout through three types of coping skills—distraction, processing, and self-care—and explains why businesses must invest in workplace wellness to improve retention, productivity, and overall team wellbeing.
