Women in Tech Jobs
Did you know that there are 13 million tech jobs expected to open in the next 4 years, but only  26% of tech jobs are held by women and only 3% are Black women and 1% are Latinas/Latinx? In this episode I chat with Joanna Rouse, Marketing professional for Npower (a non-profit organization that launches digital careers for military veterans and young adults from underserved communities) to discuss the challenges for women of color in the tech world and what parents can do to help our daughters embrace STEM careers.

Embracing Your Gifts & Passions in Your Career
It's women's history month! So, I am profiling black women making a difference in their careers. In this episode, I sit down with Miia Torrera, the creator of Miiato Comics.  After over a decade of practicing corporate litigation, she bravely decided to pursue her dream of writing, and thus the ISA comic book series was born. She is the first Black female children's comic book author. Her stories are fun, age-appropriate, and most importantly features characters of color.

Feature Friday: Total Money Makeover
Feature Friday's are my monthly segment (every 4th Friday of the month) where I highlight a product or service that I find interesting or helpful. In his book, Ramsey offers a bold, no-nonsense approach to money matters. Ramsey debunks the many myths of money and attacks the illusions and downright deceptions of the American dream, which encourages nothing but overspending and massive amounts of debt. He gets to the heart of your money problems: You! "Don't even consider keeping up with the Joneses," Ramsey declares in his typically candid style. "They're broke!" Dave Ramsey condenses his 20 years of financial teaching and counseling into 7 organized, easy-to-follow steps that will lead you out of debt and into a Total Money Makeover.
