This episode of the Career Love Podcast is a love letter to the creative, so done with corporate, legacy-building Black woman in this community.


Today, I’m joined by the incredible Nicole Palmer—bestselling author, editor-in-chief, and co-founder of Delnic Media. We talk about what it means to navigate corporate America as a Black woman, how we’re building our digital empires to experience true freedom, and why it’s time to rethink what financial security, the stories we tell ourselves, and how we define success!


In this episode, Nicole leaves it ALL on the table (which we built ourselves) and we discuss...

  • How positioning yourself as THE talent gives you career freedom
  • How we can reclaim our creativity and stories by becoming a Black Woman in publishing and editing
  • The difference between hustle culture and dream building
  • What it really means to “play the game” in corporate space
  • If you've ever questioned your path or considered if you can actually get PAID to be creative, this one’s for you.
