In this electrifying episode of Iconic Leadership with Karissa Adkins, Karissa pulls back the curtain on one of the most powerful projects she has ever created, The Alpha Queens Rising Legacy Book Project, and the larger leadership movement it represents.
This isn’t just another anthology.
This isn’t a compilation of motivational stories.
This is a codex of courage, a collection of women who refused to break, refused to shrink, and chose to rise into their highest identity as leaders, founders, and legacy makers.
This episode marks a defining moment in the evolution of the show, a shift from business strategy alone into iconic, embodied leadership and the woman behind the brand.
Inside this episode, Karissa shares:
? Why this book, and this movement, matters now more than ever
? What makes Alpha Queens Rising unlike anything in the empowerment or personal growth space
? Behind-the-scenes emotional moments that forever changed her as a leader
? Why the world needs sovereign, embodied women leading at the highest level
? How the upcoming RISE Event on March 19th 2026 will elevate this movement into full embodiment
? How the book and the event work together to support women through their next evolution
PLUS, Karissa announces the Alpha Queens Rising Author Interview Series, launching next week on the podcast, featuring raw, unfiltered conversations with women whose stories will activate you, expand you, and elevate your identity as a leader.
This episode is a declaration.
A remembrance.
A rising.
If you’ve felt the pull toward your next level...
this is your sign.
This is your moment.
This is the movement.
