The Embracing Only podcast introduces ordinary women who have defied the odds as they navigated their professional careers as 'an ONLY'. The diverse guests interviewed lean into their learnings, lived experiences and expertise from their global experiences to create a show that will engage, inform, empower and provide actionable ways in which the listeners can see the change they seek to rise and shine in their professional space as 'An Only'. Women and particularly women of color are constantly bombarded with societal and systemic hurdles that they face professionally with no balance in solutions. News, media and coaching tends to focus on our differences and the obstacles but do not provide thought provoking solutions to help people regain control of their lives and find direction. This show seeks to provide a community for women to share their lived experiences and not feel alone in their journey to claim their power and purpose in the communities they seek to serve, transform and impact. Embracing Only is a podcast where we seek to empower women with stories of other women who have defied the odds and thrive in spite of the hurdles presented. Our mission is to inspire women to align with their highest selves and dare to dream big dreams. When women win, we all win! The Embracing Only podcast was formerly known as The Nine Oh Six podcast.
