In this episode, we examine the gap between headline-making milestones and the real power structures that shape opportunities for Black women in corporate America. Inspired by Remona Hazel’s insights, we discuss why representation alone isn’t enough, the unique barriers Black women face, and the urgent need for intentional, systemic change. We highlight both the resilience fueling a surge in Black women entrepreneurship and the fragility of recent gains amid shifting workplace priorities. Tune in for a candid conversation about moving beyond performative diversity to build lasting equity, agency, and authentic inclusion.
