Smith and Desiree sit down with entrepreneur, educator, worship leader, and founder of Wykeria Dance & Performing Arts, Wykeria Clark, for one of the most transparent conversations yet.

Wykeria shares the moment she almost closed her dance studio after years of pouring into others while carrying the weight alone. What followed wasn't just a business breakthrough—it was a lesson in trusting God's vision, receiving help, and embracing the visibility He had been preparing her for all along.

If you've ever questioned your calling, hidden your gifts, or felt uncomfortable being seen, this conversation will remind you that what God called, He intends to reveal.
Because sometimes the greatest act of faith... is allowing yourself to be visible.

Smith sits down with Danita A. Scott — kingdom entrepreneur and course creation strategist — for a conversation about confidence, assignment, and what it really looks like to trust God with your gifts. Danita opens up about quitting her corporate job on her birthday, watching God grow her first email list of 200 people into a five-figure day, and the moment she asked God to stop the funnel because she was too afraid to handle what He was sending her. She also breaks down the difference between people who are loud and people who are sincere — and why the quiet, assigned ones are the ones that last.
 
Whether you're sitting on an idea you've been too afraid to launch, navigating the tension between being a number 2 and stepping into number one, or just trying to understand what your gift is actually worth — this conversation will meet you right where you are.

In this episode of Jess Ask The Podcast, Magan Battle — the youngest founder of a real estate brokerage firm in Birmingham, Alabama — joins host Jessica S. Smith for a conversation that is equal parts testimony, strategy, and straight talk. Magan opens up about never wanting to be a broker, the string of divine confirmations that wouldn't let her say no, and the hardest year of her life — losing her father unexpectedly, watching her mother fight stage 4 breast cancer, and watching deal after deal fall apart, all at the same time. She talks about what it really took to build something out of grief, how COVID tripled her business before she had the systems to handle it, and why she refuses to show the highlight reel without telling you how she cried in the dark.
 
Whether you're navigating a calling you didn't ask for, the tension between faith and fear, or the weight of building something while your personal life is falling apart — this conversation will meet you right where you are.
 
In this episode:
• The Book of Joshua kept showing up — until she finally said yes to the broker's license
• Losing her father to a sudden heart attack in November 2019 and what it exposed about her business
• How COVID tripled her business overnight — and nearly broke her in the process
• Why building a team isn't just strategy — it's God's way of multiplying your impact

Smith and Desiree sit down for a raw, Spirit-led conversation about avoidance, identity, and what it really means to get over it — not in the dismissive sense, but in the biblical one. Jessica opens up about a moment she avoided revisiting for over a year because it made her feel like she wasn't enough, and what happened when she finally went back.
 
Through personal testimony and the Word, this episode challenges listeners to rethink the moments they've been living in too long — and asks the harder question: what's waiting for you on the other side of getting over it?
 
Whether you're navigating avoidance, shame, abandonment wounds, or the quiet fear that your past is still following you, this conversation will meet you right where you are.
 
🎯 In this episode:
• Why we invest time and energy into moments that were never meant to last
• The definition of avoidance — and how it creates the very stress and anxiety we're praying away
• What Moses and the burning bush teach us about getting over it and going back 
• How to know the difference between being released and being abandoned

This week on Jess Ask the Podcast, Jessica sits down with George Gilliam — founder of Uncle G's Pizza in Birmingham, Alabama — for one of the most honest conversations the Safe Space has ever held. George shares his journey from growing up privileged and blind to it in Charlottesville, Virginia, through a drug addiction that took him all the way to heroin and crack cocaine, to the moment in a rehab lecture that finally broke him open. He talks about what it feels like when drugs stop working, what it cost him to tell his parents the truth, and how a move to Alabama and an obsession with sourdough became the foundation of something much bigger than food.
If you've ever carried a secret that felt too heavy to say out loud — or wondered whether your past disqualifies your purpose — this episode was made for you.

While many people focus on trusting God, this conversation shifts the perspective toward what it means to become trustworthy in the things God assigns. Through honest reflections, scripture, and personal experiences, they discuss how obedience, stewardship, and even suffering can shape spiritual maturity.

They also explore how difficult seasons may not be punishment, but preparation, and how learning God’s heart changes how we navigate challenges. If you're in a season where you're asking God for more, this episode may challenge you to ask a different question: Are you ready for what you're asking for?

This conversation will especially encourage anyone growing in faith, navigating trials, or learning what true obedience looks like.

She opens up about growing up in West End Birmingham, being raised by a single mother across multiple schools, dropping out of college, a near-death experience at 19, and the moment she surrendered her life to God.
From marrying young and going back to school in her 30s with kids in tow, to earning her way into Harvard Kennedy School and building a PR firm that counted TD Jakes, Magic Johnson, and Burger King as clients — this is the story behind the fight.
She also breaks down her #SheWorks mantra, why she invests heavily in workforce development for women, and what it really means to be a woman of God in a male-dominated political arena.
If you've ever been told you started too late, came from the wrong place, or don't fit the mold — this episode is yours.   WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE 

• Growing up in West End Birmingham on Section 8 and food stamps
• A near-death experience at 19 and a life-changing encounter with God
• Going back to school as a mom in her 30s — and how a storm led to a scholarship
• From Jeff State to Harvard Kennedy School: the non-traditional path to excellence
• Building a PR firm from $500 with TD Jakes as her first client
• Why she's known as 'Mama Scales' — and what she does when cameras aren't watching
• The #SheWorks movement and her message to women entrepreneurs

A minister, entrepreneur, and lifelong West Side Birmingham native, she is known for her faith-driven advocacy for children, women, and underserved communities.

Jessica and Desiree get honest about boundaries—why they’re necessary, why they can feel like bondage, and how pain can push us into building walls instead of healthy guardrails. Jessica opens up about repeated relationship patterns, what therapy has revealed, and the struggle of protecting your heart without shutting people out. Together, they break down what boundaries actually are, how to be proactive instead of reactive, and how discernment helps you show up as yourself without giving everyone full access. If you’ve ever asked, “Why does this keep happening to me?” this conversation is for you.

What if the destination was never the palace… but the famine? What if elevation wasn’t about validation, but positioning?

This episode challenges labels, reframes calling, and reminds you to occupy your seat wherever you’re placed. If you’ve been shrinking or questioning your assignment, this conversation will give you language — and the prayer at the end will seal it.

  Jess and Desiree Danielle have an honest conversation about what it means to be “created to create” — and why your obedience still counts even when the response is quiet. Desiree shares how her new book was birthed through prayer, the fear of opinions, and the vulnerable shift from producing others to releasing her own voice. Together, they talk excellence vs. perfection, using what’s in your hands, and why God can trust you with more when you’re faithful with what you already have.

Desiree is passionate about helping people embrace their God-given identity with boldness and obedience, reminding them that creativity is not extra—it’s embedded in their design.

    Warning: this episode might get slippery—because the oil showed up. Jess and Desiree sit down with  Janice Coleman for a wisdom-packed conversation on seasons (dispensations), purpose-driven obedience, leadership transitions, and building structure without burning out. If you’ve been trying to figure out what God is doing in your life—or you’ve been frustrated while building—this episode will give you language, direction, and confirmation.

    Jess and Desiree break down 5 mistakes builders make starting out—from treating your assignment like a “sneaky link” to waiting on the “right time” and dishonoring what’s already in your hand. This episode is a push from idea mode to execution, with real examples of partnership, stewardship, and what it looks like to be fully persuaded about what God told you to build.

    Building with a partner is beautiful… and frustrating. Jessica and Desiree talk about real partnership: different personalities, different communication styles, and how offense can derail the assignment if you don’t know the heart of who you’re building with. They break down “iron sharpens iron,” healing through the process, and how to stay focused on the purpose instead of the irritation.

      Jessica S. Smith and Desiree welcome LaDarrius Hutcherson to the Safe Space for a thoughtful conversation on therapy, identity, and purpose. LaDarrius shares how Birmingham helped shape who he is today, how therapy challenged old patterns, and what it’s like balancing personal growth while building a public platform. He also introduces his book, Bloom Where You’re Planted, unpacking the deeper meaning behind honoring your roots and recognizing that your environment may be more valuable than you once believed. If you’ve ever felt torn between leaving and staying, evolving and resting, or becoming and remembering—this episode will resonate.

      Are you a builder, a dreamer, or a visionary—and do you know what season you’re in?
      In this episode, Desiree and I sit down with Coach JD Fomby for a real conversation about what it means to build on purpose in 2026. We talk delegation, emotional bandwidth, protecting your circle, and why “doing the work” matters more than chasing a moment.

      Are you ready for a thought-provoking, honest conversation about building in uncomfortable places? What about trusting God’s timing and releasing shame before stepping into a new season?
      
      Using Jeremiah 29 as our foundation, Desiree and I unpack what it really means to build, plant, and multiply—even when you’re not where you thought you’d be. This episode speaks directly to leaders, builders, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating transition, relocation, or starting over.
      
      In this episode, we talk about:
      Why obedience matters more than clarity
      Building structure in unfamiliar seasons
      Planting roots in places that don’t feel permanent
      Releasing shame before stepping into purpose
      Trusting God’s plan even when the location changes
      Why community is essential to building well
      
      This conversation is for the person who said “yes” to God—but didn’t expect the process to look like this.
      
      🎧 New episodes of Jess Ask the Podcast drop every Thursday.
      💛 If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who’s building again.
      
      Remember: life could be much more simple… if you just ask.

      Using Jeremiah 29 as our foundation, Desiree and I unpack what it really means to build, plant, and multiply—even when you’re not where you thought you’d be. This episode speaks directly to leaders, builders, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating transition, relocation, or starting over.
      
      In this episode, we talk about:
      Why obedience matters more than clarity
      Building structure in unfamiliar seasons
      Planting roots in places that don’t feel permanent
      Releasing shame before stepping into purpose
      Trusting God’s plan even when the location changes
      Why community is essential to building well
      
      This conversation is for the person who said “yes” to God—but didn’t expect the process to look like this.
      
      🎧 New episodes of Jess Ask the Podcast drop every Thursday.
      💛 If this episode encouraged you, share it with someone who’s building again.
      
      Remember: life could be much more simple… if you just ask.

      Jessica and her sister Kendal (Kendal Tried It) open up about divorce, co-parenting, and what it means to choose yourself without abandoning the people you love. They talk about growing up with divorced parents, breaking generational patterns, single motherhood, and how Kendal went from loctician to content creator while raising three kids.
      
      This one is for the woman who feels unseen, overworked, and still trying to figure out who she is beyond her roles.

      In this powerful and deeply transparent episode, Jess sits with Tiffany N. White for one of the most honest and transformative conversations yet. Tiffany opens up about everything: her journey to earning her GED in five days, navigating motherhood as a young single mom, attending an HBCU as a white woman, dealing with online assumptions, rebuilding self-worth, and learning how to flourish after years of survival mode.
      
      They talk identity, healing, boundaries, womanhood, friendships, influence, generational cycles, and what it really takes to become the woman God intended.
      
      If you’ve ever questioned who you’re becoming, felt stuck between who you were and who you’re called to be, or struggled with rebuilding your life from the inside out — this episode is for you.

      In this honest and healing conversation, Jess sits down with Britta Tabor for a transparent look at confidence, calling, femininity, divorce, and the fear of stepping into what God is asking you to do. Britta opens up about rebuilding life after 30+ years of marriage, navigating loneliness, finding herself again, and learning how to show up authentically — online and in real life.
      
      They also dive into fashion identity, dating as an alpha woman, and what it really means to trust God in a waiting season. If you’ve ever struggled with being “too strong,” feared success, or felt the tension between who you’ve been and who you’re becoming… this episode is for you.

      “Don’t fail in fear. Do it afraid — your faith will outrun your fear.” — Britta Tabor

      In this deeply transparent episode, Jess sits down with Ricka Riley — worship leader, psalmist, intercessor, and survivor — for one of the most powerful conversations of the season. Ricka opens up about worship beyond the microphone: sacrifice, surrender, dying to self, and learning that real worship begins where comfort ends.
      
      She shares her story of living homeless for three years, surviving verbal and physical abuse at home, navigating church hurt, and wrestling with anger toward God — all while serving, leading worship, and trying to stay faithful. Ricka also discusses her deliverance from 13 years of pornography addiction, how generational patterns show up in our lives, and what it means to break cycles for the sake of your bloodline.
      
      We talk psalmistry, prophetic sound, how to discern the heart of God, why setlists can’t carry the oil, and the difference between surviving and surrendering. 
      
      In this episode we cover:
      • What worship truly is (and why it requires death)
      • Homelessness, shame, and spiritual survival
      • The difference between pain and dying to self
      • Prophetic worship vs. worship leading
      • Porn addiction & breaking sexual strongholds
      • Abuse, trauma, and emotional muzzling
      • Generational bondage and unfinished business
      • Navigating sexuality as a prophetic woman
      • Waiting for marriage & staying pure
      
      Question of the Episode:
      What part of Ricka’s story did you see yourself in?
      
      If this episode blessed you, share it, comment below, and show Ricka some love.
      
      Remember: Life could be much more simple… if you just ask.

      Jess is joined by her best friend and prophetic voice Brianca E. Hardy to discuss the supernatural, the prophetic, the 5 (and 6) spiritual senses, and how believers can learn to hear God clearly. This episode breaks down warfare, discernment, spiritual language, angel numbers, Hebrew years, generational gifts, and how to avoid counterfeits while following the Holy Spirit. If you’ve ever sensed things, seen things, or “just known” things but didn’t have language for it — this conversation will give you clarity and confidence. Life could be much more simple… if you just ask.

        Jess sits down with Funnel Queen Alyssa “Curlyssa” Pitts to talk funnels, offers, and the real-life story behind the systems. They unpack what a funnel actually is, why every creator already has one, and how to turn your podcast and content into simple, profitable offers—especially going into the holiday season. Alyssa also shares her powerful testimony of surviving domestic violence while building her business, how she rebuilt her life, and why she’s passionate about helping Black and brown entrepreneurs create structure, safety, and freedom through funnels. If you’ve ever felt behind, overwhelmed, or stuck in chaos—in your business or your relationships—this conversation is for you.

        In this episode, Jess and Desiree remind you: you are not behind. They open up about burnout, rest, and learning to slow down enough to hear God clearly. From Genesis and Habakkuk 2:2–3, they break down how to write the vision, make it legible, and recognize the season you’re in. This is your reminder to stop rushing the process and stop calling yourself behind — you’re right on time. In this conversation:
        • What “write it legibly” really means ✍🏾
        • The difference between process and progress
        • How rest gives clarity
        • “Partial vision = partial blessing”
        • Why you must identify your season before you move
        If you’ve ever wrestled with impatience, overwhelm, or uncertainty about your journey — this episode will bring you peace and perspective. Scripture Reference: Habakkuk 2:2–3 (The Passion Translation)

        What does safe love feel like when you’re healing in public? Educator & creator Brittani Monique shares how prayer with her partner became the most intimate step of her healing, why boundaries saved her peace, and how she uses influence to serve students—poppy machines, clothes, books, all of it. We dive into church that still feels like church, online safety, content batching, and choosing faith over optics.

          Transitions aren’t easy—but they’re necessary. In this episode, Jess and Desiree get real about moving seasons, why rest is Biblical, and how to steward both partnership and podcasting. From recording in borrowed spaces to learning batch recording and celebrating milestones, they share how God’s grace makes room for growth. If you’ve ever delayed starting because you thought you didn’t have the “right” equipment, this conversation will free you to start with what you already have.

            What does real community building look like beyond likes and monthly dues? Entrepreneur and coach Nella Coleman shares how to price with integrity, lead with value, and serve without burning out—while navigating motherhood, faith, and being truly multifaceted. We talk confidence before followers, seasons and pivots, guilt around church/work balance, and why builders need community too.

              What does it really mean to build a healthy Christian friendship—one that uplifts without falling into codependency? In this episode, Pastor Andrea Gates and Dr. Pauletta Brown share how godly friends cover you, not coddle you, and why boundaries, grace, and honesty are essential for lasting relationships. We get real about grief, healing abandonment and rejection, and navigating friendships when your best friend is also your pastor. If you’ve been praying for authentic Christian friendships that sharpen and support you, this conversation is your blueprint.

                Mom of five and author Stephanie Byrd shares how God carried her from foster care and rejection to healing, marriage, and motherhood. She opens up about being born drug-exposed, discovering her adoption, and the moment God marked her with “destiny”—then walks us through trusting God beyond faith, breaking generational curses, and letting joy lead. We dig into marriage when both partners are healing, learning to hear the Holy Spirit in everyday choices, and turning pain into purpose. If you’ve battled trauma, identity, or feeling “unwanted,” this conversation will meet you with hope and strategy.

                Mom of five and author Stephanie Byrd shares how God carried her from foster care and rejection to healing, marriage, and motherhood. She opens up about being born drug-exposed, discovering her adoption, and the moment God marked her with “destiny”—then walks us through trusting God beyond faith, breaking generational curses, and letting joy lead. We dig into marriage when both partners are healing, learning to hear the Holy Spirit in everyday choices, and turning pain into purpose. If you’ve battled trauma, identity, or feeling “unwanted,” this conversation will meet you with hope and strategy.

                    Jess sits down with Omar Eltakrori to unpack how Christian entrepreneurs can balance business and ministry through God’s grace—not hustle. They dig into why compartmentalizing faith hurts effectiveness, how to follow the Holy Spirit in everyday decisions, and why “rhythm over balance” keeps you healthy. Omar shares practical habits (Word-first, church-first) and creator wisdom that make space for both the marketplace and ministry. If you’re building a business and serving your church, this conversation is a roadmap to doing both—by grace.

                    Jess sits down with Omar Eltakrori to unpack how Christian entrepreneurs can balance business and ministry through God’s grace—not hustle. They dig into why compartmentalizing faith hurts effectiveness, how to follow the Holy Spirit in everyday decisions, and why “rhythm over balance” keeps you healthy. Omar shares practical habits (Word-first, church-first) and creator wisdom that make space for both the marketplace and ministry. If you’re building a business and serving your church, this conversation is a roadmap to doing both—by grace.

With this being their third year attending Woman Evolve, Pat and Stacy offer a powerful perspective on how the experience continues to grow and challenge them. From legacy to liberation, this conversation is a continuation of the freedom theme from EP118 and a reminder that freedom is not just a feeling—it’s a pursuit.

With this being their third year attending Woman Evolve, Pat and Stacy offer a powerful perspective on how the experience continues to grow and challenge them. From legacy to liberation, this conversation is a continuation of the freedom theme from EP118 and a reminder that freedom is not just a feeling—it’s a pursuit.

                    In this powerful episode, Jess and Desiree dive into the difference between fake freedom and true freedom found in Christ, reflecting on John 8:36: “Whom the Son sets free is free indeed.” Jess shares her personal testimony of overcoming adultery and the transformative benefits of testifying versus simply confessing. Together, they explore why God calls us to not only accept freedom but to steward it—because He is the true owner of it. This conversation will challenge you to release your past and walk boldly in the freedom God has already given you.

                      In this honest mid-year check-in, Jess and Desiree reflect on their YES365 commitment and the unexpected ways obedience has shaped their year. From wrestling with tough moments to witnessing God’s grace in real time, they share how consistent obedience brought emotional healing and spiritual growth. Desiree even opens up about how it helped her heal father wounds she didn’t know still existed. This episode will encourage you to keep going—your healing could be on the other side of your yes.

                        In this special fan-powered episode, comedian and actor Floss the Mack returns to Jess Ask the Podcast for a raw, real, and unforgettable conversation. While laughter brought him to the spotlight, Floss opens up about what’s behind the jokes—his journey into comedy, navigating a strained relationship with his father, and being present for his kids. He shares how humor became his healing, and why legacy matters more than likes. This episode is a reminder that behind every joke is a deeper story—and sometimes, healing starts when the laughter fades.

                        Jess is joined by gospel artist, educator, and father Enrique Holmes for a powerful conversation on worship, identity, and balance. Enrique opens up about how teaching grounds him and prevents him from being exploited for his musical gift. He shares how becoming a father has reshaped his view of presence, healing, and worth. From navigating rejection from his own father to realizing he used to spend time with God only when preparing for an engagement—this episode peels back the layers of performance, faith, and purpose. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re called or just being used, this one’s for you.

                        Jess is joined by gospel artist, educator, and father Enrique Holmes for a powerful conversation on worship, identity, and balance. Enrique opens up about how teaching grounds him and prevents him from being exploited for his musical gift. He shares how becoming a father has reshaped his view of presence, healing, and worth. From navigating rejection from his own father to realizing he used to spend time with God only when preparing for an engagement—this episode peels back the layers of performance, faith, and purpose. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re called or just being used, this one’s for you.

                            In this special Mother’s Day episode of Jess Ask the Podcast, Jess sits down with trauma recovery and relationship coach Cia Edwards-Wiggins to talk about motherhood from a rarely heard perspective. Cia opens up about not originally wanting children, and how becoming a mother challenged her marriage, identity, and expectations. She shares what it looks like to grow through the mental load of motherhood—especially when your partner’s presence feels flexible and yours doesn’t. If motherhood ever felt like a mirror, this episode will remind you that growth and grace can coexist.

Using a devotional from the Bible App called "Financial Fitness" by Rick Warren as a starting point, they dive into a bigger conversation about worry, obedience, and God's perfect timing. This isn’t just about money—it’s about learning to release control and believe that God’s got it handled. If you’ve ever wrestled with fear or needed a reminder to trust again, this one is for you.

Using a devotional from the Bible App called "Financial Fitness" by Rick Warren as a starting point, they dive into a bigger conversation about worry, obedience, and God's perfect timing. This isn’t just about money—it’s about learning to release control and believe that God’s got it handled. If you’ve ever wrestled with fear or needed a reminder to trust again, this one is for you.

                              Jess is joined by Pastor Mark Machen for a bold and necessary conversation about what it means to truly live freely in Christ. They challenge the religious routines we've grown comfortable with and ask the real questions—like, “Is it God our Father or the Godfather?” Mark shares the heart behind the upcoming Forever Healed Conference and reminds us that freedom comes through unlearning what God never intended for us to carry. If you’ve ever felt weighed down by tradition, this episode is your permission slip to walk free.

                                    In this episode, Tameria Weaver, a mental health professional and founder of the Leap Conference, shares powerful insights on overcoming the people-pleasing mentality that keeps us from walking in our true purpose. Tameria talks about the importance of setting healthy boundaries, prioritizing self-care, and being authentic in our relationship with God.We also discuss how merging faith and therapy can bring healing to the mind, body, and spirit, and the value of celebrating small wins along the way. Tameria encourages listeners to embrace their unique identity and purpose, without comparing themselves to others, and highlights the importance of building a strong foundation to build upon in life and ministry.

Tameria talks about the importance of setting healthy boundaries, prioritizing self-care, and being authentic in our relationship with God.We also discuss how merging faith and therapy can bring healing to the mind, body, and spirit, and the value of celebrating small wins along the way.

                                    This episode of the Jess Ask discusses the importance of receiving help and support, especially for strong Black women of faith. Jess and Desiree, explore how pride and the societal pressure to be "strong" can sometimes prevent us from accepting the help we need. They share personal experiences and insights on redefining what it means to be strong, and how allowing others to help can actually enhance our lives and purpose. The overall message emphasizes the value of community, vulnerability, and finding a balance between giving and receiving help - a "win-win" situation. The discussion touches on topics like therapy, managing transitions, and understanding our unique roles within the body of Christ.

                                        In this episode of Jess Ask, Caleb opens up about his journey of faith, overcoming the absence of his father, and how personal choice shaped his relationship with God. He shares the powerful impact of being intentional with what we consume—through media, music, and more—and how it can influence our actions and thoughts. Caleb and Jess also dive into the responsibility of the Black community to address issues like gun violence and the glorification of crime, stressing the importance of collective action. If you're seeking inspiration on making intentional, faith-driven choices in your life, this episode is for you. Plus, stay tuned for an invitation to deepen your relationship with Christ.

                                              Originally from Madison, Alabama, Dr. Phillip Sullivan is a higher education professional currently working in the state of Georgia. Phillip has a passion for youth and mental health advocacy. In May 2022, Phillip earned his Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision with a graduate certificate in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion from the Mary Frances Early College of Education at the University of Georgia. His dissertation, "Lifting Every Voice: Exploring Hope, Healing, and Liberation among Black Undergraduate Students at Predominantly White Institutions," reflects his enduring commitment to improving the experiences of marginalized students in higher education.
                                              
                                               Beyond completing his doctoral studies, Phillip remains fervently devoted to community engagement. He actively participates in various professional and community-based organizations. Notably, for the past three years, he has served as Chair of the Collegiate 100 Committee within the Emerging 100 of Atlanta, an auxiliary of the 100 Black Men of Atlanta. He also regularly participates in public speaking engagements focused on mental health advocacy.

                                              A mom, wife, children’s book author, publisher, and veteran educator. She writes books that feature black and brown main characters, with the intent to narrow the diversity gap in the ‘kid lit’ space. All the books in her collection inspire, build character, promote positivity, and spark imagination in children. One of Dr. Tellis's goals is to create books that affirm and encourage young boys and girls to be the best version of themselves! She enjoys sharing about her books, her author journey, and the writing process via school visits, workshops, and speaking engagements. Dr Deven would like nothing more than to extend the reach of her books through partnerships, so that we can work towards changing the world, one book at a time!
