A powerful close to the podcast season: Jayne Allen on creativity, courage, and legacy

Episode 152

Jayne Allen, a 5-time best-selling author, joins the podcast.

I’m proud to share a powerful new episode of Black Women Amplified featuring the brilliant Jayne Allen, bestselling author of the Black Girls Must Die Exhausted trilogy.

​

Jayne’s journey from Harvard-trained attorney to global storyteller is a masterclass in courage, creativity, and intention. In our conversation, she opens up about her collaboration with filmmaker Malcolm D. Lee on The Best Man book series, the business of building a storytelling empire, and how she’s now pouring her wisdom into her education platform, Book Genius, to help the next generation of authors rise.

​

This conversation is for every Black woman ready to own her story, claim her voice, and build a legacy.

​

You’ll hear:

  • Jayne’s path from Harvard Law to bestselling author
  • The creative process behind The Best Man collaboration
  • How Black Girls Must Die Exhausted became a global phenomenon
  • The purpose and power behind Book Genius
  • What’s next in the Jayne Allen Universe

And…

As we close out this chapter of the season, this may be the last interview of the year as I shift my focus toward building the next evolution of Black Women Amplified.

​

Don’t worry, the podcast isn’t going anywhere. You’ll still hear episodes in your feed, but for a while, it’ll be just me. Maybe.

I can’t wait to share what’s next. Take a moment and text the podcast episode with a few friends who love The Best Man.

​

Thank you for listening, for growing with me, and for being part of this incredible community of women who refuse to play small.

​

With gratitude,
​Monica
