Inside the Group Chat: The Support Every Leader Needs

Leadership can be lonely, but it was never meant to be carried alone. In this episode, we sit down with Julia’s sisters in business and life: Oglah Gatamah, Koren Bowman, Kymber Lovett-Menkiti, and Gabby Davis, a powerhouse circle of Black women leaders within Keller Williams.Together, we talk about what real collaboration looks like when it goes deeper than networking. This is about safe spaces, honest conversations, strategy, accountability, and having people who understand the exact pressure we carry as women, leaders, mothers, owners, and builders.We explore why scarcity keeps women competing, how abundance helps us say each other’s names in the right rooms, and why the right circle should sharpen us, not drain us. From business growth to legacy, representation, faith, and vulnerability, this conversation is a reminder that community is not optional for sustainable success.The challenge is simple: find your circle, protect it, and be that person for someone else.We Talk About: [00:00] Meet the Sisterhood Behind the Success[04:24] Find Your Safe Space[07:54] Your Circle Creates Opportunities[09:35] Why Admiration is So Important[19:01] The Problem With The Scarcity Mindset[20:37] How to Build Your Circle[38:46] Build the Room You’ve Been Looking ForResources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyRead Breathless by Oglah GatamahConnect with Oglah GatamahConnect with Gabby Davis on InstagramConnect with Kymber Lovett-MenkitiConnect with Koren Bowman and KU Real Estate GroupConnect with Our HostsJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.
