We have what it takes to be the boss. We’re building amazing companies and making power moves that are setting up our future generations for wealth. Yet we are vulnerable as Moms in this society. We work to get parity with our counterparts. In short, we are drained at times. In a world that’s fighting so har to eliminate “woke” and refuse to acknowledge diversity, we find ourselves exhausted but steady moving. Our accomplishments matter. Let’s take back the narrative and have the conversations. We have to do this amongst our own community and the community of women at large. So let’s start the conversation so we can get on one accord because women banded together harness such power and can affect real change. But first, hear us.

Episode 68: The Price is the Price- Stop Trying to Serve Everyone
Yes, Mary J. Blige in collaboration with Giuseppe Zanotti launched a boot for $1,300. Some people are complaining about the price and are calling for her to release a lower priced one. But is that fair? I learned a long time ago that the price is the price but terms are negotiable. While I am sympathetic to the world and economy we live in. everything ain’t for everybody. If there is value in something, nobody should be asking for lower prices. That’s why there are payment plans and financing opportunities. As Alex Hormozi said “Poor people stay poor because they’re worried about poor people judging them”. Sell your stuff. Assign a price to it. Don’t let anyone shame you about it. People will afford what they want to afford. That is not your focus. Assign a price based on the value of the product or service and don’t worry about the rest.

Episode 67: Speak Up- Use Your Voice, Platform & Network to Effect Change
With the democratization of platforms the good and bad thing is anyone can launch one. It doesn’t mean everyone’s message is positive. We as women have a responsibility to uplift, inspire and educate. We have a responsibility to honor and tell our stories. So many people fumble that opportunity by degrading adn spreading negative energy.. You can speak or show the facts without tearing down a segment of people or causing harm or embarrassment. It’s time to reclaim our narrative and use ur platforms for their best and highest use.

Episode 66: Protect, License & Get That Money!
When I started on this IP journey, my thinking and scope was so limited. I had a lot of assumptions that had me afraid to work my numbers or go for opportunities.
I thought about what it would be like to actually really own Mogul Chix® and the power that it gave me to create new long term opportunities for my company. People used to ask me if I was licensing out anything. I always said no. I had the licensing agreement before the trademark was official, and I let it sit.
Now I have finally started the process of licensing out some of my trademark and licensing agreement. But I wasted so much time sitting on the sidelines. In this episode I want to clarify the process and inspire you to hop off that fence and stop blocking your revenue blessings.

Episode 65: There’s No Lack of Funding for WOC, Let’s Be More Strategic to Get It
On Facebook, I posted about Women of Color & access to capital, & it got lot’s of like’s comments & views. Clearly this is a conversation that needs to be had. People often lament about there not being any viable capital resources for Women of Color and how we can’t get into those rooms.
But you’ve seen Mogul Chix® Academy, right? This is not a new conversation. There ARE resources to get WOC in the door and across the threshold. And I have been talking about this since the early 2000’s.
The conversation has been there. So let’s make some inroads to change the narrative. Today I’m giving my insight into why the media headlines will keep us thinking there isn’t much out there for us, and what we need to be doing (as founders and investors) to make sure that WOC are getting the access and getting into the rooms to make it happen.
