Sistah Girls Book Club, in this episode, I sat down with Monique Rodriguez, CEO of Mielle Organics, a leading textured haircare brand for Black women and women of color. Monique shares her journey from being a registered nurse to building a multi-million-dollar beauty empire—and how faith, resilience, and community played a vital role.

Her new book, The Glory In Your Story: Activating a Fearless Faith to Change Your Life, Your Career, and the World, is a powerful testament to the lessons she’s learned along the way. We discuss growing up on the Southside of Chicago, the challenges of entrepreneurship, navigating the loss of her infant son, and how keeping God first shaped her success.

This episode is a must-listen for aspiring entrepreneurs, creatives, and anyone looking to build a purpose-driven life.

Sistah Girls Book Club, we’re stepping into a time machine with this one. In this episode, we visit the glamour and grit of 1920s Harlem with New York Times bestselling author Victoria Christopher Murray as we dive into her latest novel, Harlem Rhapsody.

Victoria shares the inspiration behind this sweeping historical drama and how she reimagined the Harlem Renaissance through the bold, talented, and unforgettable Jessie Redmon Fauset. From power and politics to love, ambition, and betrayal—this story is a page-turner. Victoria also takes us behind the scenes of her writing process and spills a little literary tea along the way.

Sistah Girls, it's a new year and a new season! I’m so happy to have author, youth advocate, and ordained Baptist minister, Khristi Lauren Adams with us. We had a great conversation about her new book: Womanish Theology Discovering God through the Lens of Black Girlhood.

The book's title pulled me in, I don’t think I’ve ever read about the discovery of God through the lens of Black girls. The more I thought about it the more I realized that Womanish Theology should have been studied a long time ago.

Sistah Girls, it's the end of the year and I wanted to end it with someone who could help us say goodbye to 2024 and embrace the new year ahead. Author and Well-Being Educator Nakeia Homer was the perfect woman for the job.

She’s a sought-after well-being expert and trauma-informed educator who facilitates powerful workshops and keynotes on the power of story, self-love/self-care, and purpose.

I got the chance to speak with Homer to have a deeper discussion on what it takes to change our lives using habits. And how healing from our past traumas gives us space to create the life we desire.
