After a brief hiatus i'm back; refreshed, raring to go and ready to bring the D the way only CommunityD Podcast can! Kicking off the podcast's return is an episode I recorded back in June with two women who bring new meaning to the word Mumpreneur: Tobi, founder of My Bump Pay and Debs, founder of Colour Celebrations.
With a wealth of wisdom very apt in the month of celebrating black greatness, we discussed:
- The best qualities in a partner
- The balance of being a mother, wife, working woman and mumpreneur
- How they built their businesses
- Their advice to those wanting to start a business
Guests: Deborah, founder - Colour Celebrations & Tobi, founder - my Bump Pay

"Refer to me as a goddess, I'm tired of being modest" #BlackLivesMatter
Quotable words for life-changing times. In this special episode I will be sharing 5 (I did say 4 but it's bonuses all round with me!) things we should all commit to in our workspace, life and all the inbetweens. My friend Jacqui (a real queen!) challenged me to use what I know to help our black community and so this is one of the many avenues I can be an agent for permanent change. Whilst this episode is primarily for the black community, there are learnings for everyone.
My 5 focus points are:
- Overcoming the fear of speaking out
- Unlearning Code-Switching in the workplace and beyond
- The different types of Unconscious Bias, its relation to white privilege & the part we play in combating it
- Being Confident & Calm
- Remembering Your Joy
