Hey lady! As a Black woman you know all too well the million different ways we have to command respect as we navigate our daily lives. It can  be as intense as the feeling of being passed over for promotion after having a standout year or as mundane, but profoundly important, like saying your name correctly.

Luvvie Ajayi Jones, renowned author, speaker and entrepreneur joins the Cultivating H.E.R. Space team to discuss her latest offering Little Trouble Maker Defends Her Name, a deeply personal book about Luvvie’s steadfast pride in determing who she is told in a children’t format. Luvvie stops by the podcast to discuss how she decided at a young age that she would take pride in her name and honor the sacredness of owning your name. She offers wisdom about letting that deep sense of self guide your path as she connects the dots of her journey from blogger to New York Times bestselling author.

Lady, if you’re in need of a jolt of authentic inspration then this episode is one you won’t want to miss!
