   The $35K VP: Underpaid, Overqualified & Blackballed

   What do you do when you've done everything right and you're still being undervalued? In this episode of Black Women S.A.V.E. Black Women, Kamika Dillard sits down with communications strategist and Brand Inc. PR founder Dr. Brandy Sims for an honest conversation about pay inequity, career setbacks, entrepreneurship and knowing your worth. After discovering she was making just $35,000 as a Vice President despite her education, experience and results, Dr. Sims challenged the system, walked away from a workplace that undervalued her and found herself professionally blackballed. Rather than giving up, she turned her skills, relationships and expertise into a thriving PR agency. Together, they discuss the realities of underpayment, advocating for yourself at work, building a business from scratch and why Black women should never allow others to determine their value. The biggest lesson? Sometimes the moment that forces you to walk away is the same moment that pushes you toward something greater. About Dr. Brandy Sims Dr. Brandy Sims is the founder of Brand Inc. PR, with nearly 18 years of experience in public relations across nonprofits, banking, beauty, entertainment and sports.

   Stop Waiting for Permission: Authenticity, Success & Choosing Yourself

   What happens when you stop waiting for permission and start choosing yourself? In this episode of Black Women Save Black Women, Kamika Dillard sits down with SiriusXM host, political commentator and creator of Black Woman Views, Reecie Colbert, for a conversation about authenticity, ambition, community and what it takes to build a life and career on your own terms. From their shared experiences as Black students at UCLA to Reecie's rise as a trusted voice in political media, they discuss the pressure Black women face to make themselves smaller, seek validation from gatekeepers and perform versions of themselves that feel more acceptable than authentic. Reecie shares how she built a platform without waiting for permission, challenged political disinformation when few others were willing to do so and created opportunities by refusing to stay inside someone else's box. Together, they explore Black community, political engagement, media influence and why success means defining happiness for yourself rather than chasing someone else's expectations. The biggest lesson? The right opportunities don't require a costume. They require courage. About Reecie Reecie Colbert is a SiriusXM host, accomplished author, political strategist and fearless advocate for Black women. Known for her unfiltered commentary, she hosts The Reecie Colbert Show, breaking down complex political issues and challenging disinformation.
