A Personal Note from Monica

Stories carry a unique power. They heal, connect, and transform us. Black Women Amplified was created to hold space for narratives shared in their full complexity and brilliance. This platform is for women who live with intention, hold their history close, and define the future on their own terms.

My path has led me through many worlds. Interviewing global icons and trailblazers, coaching those ready to speak their truth. Every story I have heard has deepened my belief that when women fully claim their power, culture shifts in profound ways.

I see you. Thank you for being here and for what you bring to this space. Together, we are building something real and lasting.

With clarity and purpose,
Monica Wisdom

New Book Alert

Have We Lost the Plot? It is a call to reclaim the one power we were never meant to give away: our story. In a world built on speed, visibility, and performance, this book invites us back to meaning, memory, and humanity.

Monica Wisdom shows that the story is more than expression. It is how we heal, lead, connect, and build legacy. Through ideas such as the Human Code, the Inner Archive, the Signature Story, and the Legacy Economy, she explains why the future will belong to those who communicate with depth, not noise.

This is not a book about branding or algorithms. It is about authorship: the courage to tell the truth about who you are and the wisdom to build a life that reflects it.

When we own our story, we do not just survive the world.
We shape it.
