In order to live your best life you must first choose to be brave. This podcast is about learning to recognize your power and choosing to be brave enough to stand in that power. Join me as I sit down with some of the people who helped me learn how to be brave. As a black feminist-womanist, I honor Audre Lorde when I say, "the personal is political" so I hope that you will take what you need from these stories and be able to apply the lessons in your own journey towards unlocking your power.
