Hey Sis! I'm Alicia Nicole, a Black woman who is also an author, CEO, wife, girl mom, and sister-friend.  I started this podcast as a space for Black women to receive validation, encouragement, and elevation in a world that does not provide any of that for us. After working in corporate America for over 20 years and experiencing workplace abuse, I decided to live my life unapologetically while using my voice as a source of strength for those who cannot speak up for themselves! Stay tuned for weekly episodes!

Toi shares how she transformed her pain into purpose, building a legacy that uplifts women who often feel unseen and unsupported amid devastating change. From confronting systems that failed her, to creating spaces rooted in softness, truth, and solidarity, this conversation is a blueprint for turning survival into service.
