Making history isn’t all bright lights and celebration—it’s grit, resilience, and pushing past barriers that weren’t built for you to break. In this episode of Wake Up Happy, Sis!, we’re honoring the Black women who refuse to stay in the boxes society tries to put them in. Whether it’s in business, entertainment, activism, or everyday life, trailblazing is tough—but it’s also transformational.
Joining us for this powerhouse conversation are two phenomenal guests: Tasha Wilson, the Messenger of Hope™, an award-winning author, educator, and speaker who empowers women to reclaim their confidence and step boldly into their future, and Shavonne Moorer, a branding expert, event manager, and entertainment industry insider with 20+ years of experience breaking ground in experiential marketing and media.
If you've ever felt like giving up, like the weight of being the "first" or "only" is too heavy, this episode is for you. We’re sharing the real, raw truths about breaking barriers, the mental and emotional toll of being a trailblazer, and why—despite the struggles—it’s all absolutely worth it.
🔗 Catch the replay now and remind yourself why you’re built for this.
