After battling against suicidal thoughts as a teenager, Brieanna Lightfoot Smith emerged as a twenty-something with a story to tell. She has now dedicated her life to educating women on the benefits of intentional living.
She is the author of The Black Girl's Guide to Living on Purpose and Founder of the Black Girls with Purpose movement.
In the fall of 2018 Brie launched the Black Girls with Purpose podcast, which airs weekly and has over 17,000 streams. Her audience spans across the United States and internationally.
When she’s not writing or teaching women about purpose and identity you can find Brie spending time with her family or working on programming for her non-profit Unity Queens.
In this episode, we talk about:
- The legacy she wants to create in her business (4:44)
- Why BLM has given her increased confidence in her mission (7:50)
- How buying t-shirts can help young women discover their purpose (10:19)
- The peace and direction provided by her faith (12:23)
- How leading with her suicidal past removes shame and opens up conversations (16:43)
- A few of her favourite things (20:24)
“I really want women to walk confidently in their callings.”
