Jemele Hill on Why She Left Traditional Media to Build Her Own - Ep. 186 w/ Jemele Hill

What Up Doe?! This episode is a monumental one as Detroit’s own Jemele Hill pulls up to Black Fridays for a powerful conversation about identity, journalism, storytelling, and building a media career that can’t be boxed in. From growing up in a city where Black leadership and Black ownership were everywhere, to learning the difference between being a journalist and being an influencer, Jemele breaks down why curiosity, fairness, courage, and preparation still matter in media. She also shares how leaving traditional platforms pushed her into entrepreneurship, why storytellers have to become utility players, and how Detroit continues to shape the way she shows up in every room. This one is for every creator, entrepreneur, journalist, podcaster, and professional trying to build a platform with purpose, credibility, and staying power.
