Here is a glimpse of my day co-hosting Leading Women Defined: Detroit.
Women need safe spaces to be vulnerable, to get support, to feel empowered. My dear friend Debra Lee has created such a space through her Leading Women Defined organization. I had an amazing time co-hosting the first #LWD event especially curated for my hometown Detroit. So many wonderful women in the room who were from Detroit or work in the city. I had the pleasure of interviewing the amazingly talented designer (and my Cass Technical High School classmate) Tracy Reese and wore one of her gorgeous Hope for Flowers dresses, and the amazing Melissa Butler, owner and founder of The Lip Bar - and I’m lovin’ wearing her #BawseLady lip color. 👄 We had a wonderful conversation about Profound Endurance. And, of course, we were at the Shinola Hotel, which is sooo Detroit!
Congratulations to Karen Bass who just made history as the first woman to be elected Mayor of Los Angeles.

Icon, trailblazer, pioneer…Congratulations to my dear friend Suzanne de Passe on receiving the Merge Award 2022.
A big “Thank You” to the women who came out to support the S.H.A.U.N. Foundation for Girls! These ladies and so many more have been such wonderful supporters of my nonprofit!
A fun throwback: Having a laugh in the audience at a taping of a #DefComedyJam Special with Eula Smith.
Running a nonprofit is tough work and you can’t do it alone. These ladies are the wind beneath my wings! They are the Board Members for the S.H.A.U.N. Foundation for Girls! 💜 From left: Ivy Walker (Treasurer); Yours Truly/President; Lisa Gilford (Secretary) and J. Simone Jones. They joined the SFFG at a time when my foundation was in a transition and I really needed help to continue my mission to empower underserved and underrepresented girls and young women. It is with their commitment, guidance, expertise and love that my foundation has been able to touch the number of lives that we have. Just when I needed a miracle, God sent me these angels. 💜
