At just 27, Brittney served as Executive Director of Title IX at one of the largest universities in the world—her alma mater. She later accepted a prestigious position at Baylor University, believing it to be a faith-driven opportunity. Instead, she was met with calculated resistance, racial isolation, and institutional gaslighting. Her decision to speak out, leave, and build something new led to a journey of liberation that she now shares with audiences across the country.

    ​​Workshops are content-rich sessions where Brittney teaches, equips, and engages participants through story, insight, and strategy. These sessions are ideal for audiences seeking tools for leadership, liberation, and long-term growth. For example:

    • Freedom and Authenticity - “It felt like my only option was to leave. It was a question of life or death.”

    • When Faith Meets Resistance - This talk confronts the painful disconnect between institutional faith and lived justice.

    • Build Your Table: Stories to Strategies - How to lead from lived experience, use story as strategy, and create space when you’re not invited to the table.

  • This series speaks to the emotional, relational, and mental weight that comes with success—especially for those who come from communities where opportunity is rare and support runs deep. Designed for athletes and high-achieving individuals who carry the hopes of many, this series equips participants with emotional tools, cultural language, and practical boundaries to thrive in the spotlight without losing themselves in it.
