What are the pillars you live by and how do they align with your actions? Is your ambition running you or are you managing it to live a life of impact? 

We’re answering those questions and so much more. Our guest this week is three-time founder, sought-after speaker and C-suite/board advisor Kendra Bracken-Ferguson. Her ecosystem of leadership is rooted in her global conglomerate BrainTrust including a global brand consultancy and BrainTrust Founders Studio, the largest membership-based platform for Black beauty and wellness founders. She hosts the Business of the Beat podcast, offering insights and behind-the-scenes stories from BIPOC senior executives and operators as they navigate the journey of building and scaling their companies. Among her firsts, Kendra has the distinction of being one of the first 100 Black women to have raised more than $1MM in investment for her debut company, Digital Brand Architects. Kendra’s first book, The Beauty of Success: Start, Grow, and Accelerate Your Brand was released February 13, 2024 and named the #1 New Release in Business Entrepreneurship on Amazon.
