Who am I?

I am Monica Wisdom, CEO of Black Women Amplified. I love exploring life, having great conversations, and helping people build their dreams. I am also a personal growth, business mentor, and producer of the Black Women Amplified. During these challenging times, many of us are in search of peace, clarity, and laughter. As someone who has worked as a personal growth and business coach, as well as a former cosmetologist, I've had the privilege of hearing countless stories of real-life struggles and challenges. My hope is that people can learn, as I have, that things will get better.
