 Salesforce Top Sales Influencer to Follow (4X)

Thank You; It's True.

From teaching women how to reach the top 1% to empowering them to own it—I've transformed my expertise into a revolutionary methodology that helps professional women Own Their Awesome with four simple words: "Thank you; it's true."

As the author of "Reach the Top 1%: A Strategic Game Plan for Warrior Women in Sales" and founder of the National Association of Women Sales Professionals, I witnessed firsthand how even the highest achievers struggle to own their success. This insight led to creating the transformative "Thank you; it's true" framework, which turns the simple act of accepting compliments into a powerful catalyst for authentic confidence.

Key Focus Areas:
• Transforming high-achieving women from reaching success to owning it
• Pioneering behavioral change strategies that eliminate imposter syndrome
• Delivering high-impact keynotes and workshops on authentic confidence-building
• Leading a global movement to revolutionize how women receive and internalize recognition
• Developing scalable programs that create systemic change in workplace cultures

Impact:
• Created the groundbreaking "Thank you; it's true" framework
• Built the NAWSP from inception to 15,000 members
• Featured TEDx speaker on confidence and authentic leadership
• LinkedIn Top Voice | 4X Salesforce Top Influencer

My mission has evolved from showing women how to achieve success to empowering them to fully own it. Through the power of "Thank you; it's true," I'm helping professional women transform their relationship with confidence and create lasting cultural change.

"Can you walk me through your salary expectations?"

I slid my number across the table. $127K.

The hiring manager's eyebrows shot up. "That's... ambitious for someone with your background."

My background: 8 years building revenue systems. $14M in documented value creation. Three frameworks running at my previous company.

"We were thinking more like $85K," he said. "But there's room to grow."

I folded. Took $92K. Convinced myself the title mattered more than the math.

Six months later, I'm training the new guy they hired. His starting salary? $135K. His experience? Five years. His documented wins? "Strong potential."

Same role. Same team. Same hiring manager.
Different invoice.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐦𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠:

They knew my number was right. They just knew I'd accept less.

They didn't negotiate my value. They negotiated my confidence.

They weren't questioning my worth. They were testing my documentation.

The script from that failed negotiation still burns:
"I appreciate the opportunity..."
"I understand budget constraints..."
"I'm flexible on compensation..."

Translation: I'll subsidize your profits with my discount.

Now? Different script entirely.

"My rate reflects the value I create."
"Here's the documentation."
"This number is firm."

No apologies. No explanations. No negotiations on my worth.

Because they don't pay you what you're worth.
They pay you what you refuse to work without.

That failed negotiation? Cost me $35K annually. $175K over five years. Before compound interest. Before opportunity cost. Before the mental tax of watching Brad make more for less.

To every Black woman about to negotiate:

Your number isn't ambitious. Their offer is extraction.
Your experience isn't lacking. Their evaluation is.
Your documentation isn't excessive. It's evidence.

Stop negotiating against yourself before they even counter.
Stop accepting their framing of your value.
Stop believing growth potential pays bills.

They have the budget. They always did.
They're just waiting to see if you know it too.

Thank You; It's True™

P.S. That hiring manager? Reached out last year for consulting help. My day rate is now triple what that annual raise would've been. He said it was "outside their budget." I said that sounded like a personal problem. Documentation has a beautiful memory.

Founder & CEO, Black Women’s Wealth Lab™ | Closing the pay gap for 1,000,000 Black women by 2040 | Turning corporate extraction into income

A poised woman with short natural curls sits on the floor in a softly lit, elegant living room. She wears a fitted nude-toned tank top and taupe lounge pants, holding a floral teacup in one hand with a laptop in front of her. Her jewelry is minimal and refined, and the neutral décor behind her creates a serene, upscale atmosphere. 

Yes, I invoiced my church $10K.

The pastor's jaw dropped. "But we're doing God's work."

"So am I," I said. "And God's work deserves proper funding."

See, they'd been running community programs for 15 years. Free financial literacy. Free job training. Free business coaching. All led by Black women who tithed, served, and subsidized.

The youth minister was teaching coding bootcamps after her 9-to-5.
The deacon's wife ran entrepreneurship workshops on Saturdays.
Sister Johnson's grant-writing saved them $2M.

All for "the glory."
None for the invoice.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐈 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐡:

The coding bootcamp they gave away? Worth $5K per student.
The entrepreneurship program? Corporations pay $25K for that.
Sister Johnson's grant expertise? Consultants charge $10K per proposal.

They were sitting on $500K in annual program revenue.
Giving it away while Black women burned out.
Calling it ministry while we subsidized their mission.

I didn't just invoice them. I taught them to invoice everyone else.

Started charging corporations for diversity training they'd been doing free.
Created certification programs that companies paid to send employees to.
Turned "community service" into community revenue.

Six months later:
• $500K in program fees generated
• 12 Black women instructors now paid $150/hour
• Zero burnout, maximum impact

The pastor called it a miracle.

I called it pricing our gifts properly.

Because even in sacred spaces, Black women's contributions have value. Our expertise doesn't become free because we're in the sanctuary. Our brilliance doesn't get discounted at the church door.

That $10K invoice? It was for the framework that generated the $500K.

They paid it. In full. On time.

Because transformation costs. Whether it's in boardrooms or church basements.

To every Black woman giving away her genius for "the cause":

Your cause needs funding.
Your gifts deserve compensation.
Your service has a price tag.

Even Jesus said the worker deserves their wages.

Start invoicing. Even your church.
Especially your church.

Because we can't pour from empty cups.
But we can invoice for the pitcher.

Thank You; It's True™

P.S. Three other churches just hired me to implement the same framework. $15K each. Turns out, sacred spaces everywhere need to learn how to value Black women's work. I'm teaching them. At market rate.

📣”Every problem has a networking solution.” If you’re stuck in your career, overlooked for opportunities, or unsure what’s next your next move isn’t a strategy. It’s a conversation. 📣

Ambition doesn’t rise because of titles.
It rises when you’re connected to people who challenge you, sharpen you, and stretch your thinking.

As my mentor J. Kelly Hoey says,
“Every problem has a #networking solution.”

The Beyond the Ladder study by Chief + The Harris Poll shows senior women leaders aren’t losing ambition, they’re evolving it:

• 86% say they’re more ambitious today than five years ago. 

• Success isn’t linear, it’s multidimensional. Many juggle multiple roles (executive + board + entrepreneur).

• Ambition now centers on impact, values, autonomy, and legacy, not just titles.

💡 Why this matters:

• Voice & visibility = influence. Your work matters only if people see it.

• Value-driven leadership = purpose + impact.

• Network & community = fuel for ambition. 94% of senior women leaders say peers amplify their drive.

“ Linear ladders are dead. Leadership is portfolio-driven, value-led, and community-powered!” _ Nathalie Gregg  

Who is in your circle fueling your ambition? Tag one.

Ask them: “What courageous conversation are we not having yet and what would change if we did?”

I challenge you to write ✍🏼 a LinkedIn post and tag me! 

Cheers ☕️ to having courageous conversations around the globe 🌎!

“ Leadership isn’t just about finding a seat, it’s about refusing to shrink in rooms that can’t hold your capacity!” _ Nathalie Gregg  

Because the real flex isn’t being invited.
It’s knowing when the invitation no longer aligns with your #assignment.

The moment you build a name that carries its own chair, everything shifts:

You stop waiting for permission.
You stop negotiating your visibility.
You stop mistaking proximity for opportunity.

And you realize the truth: Some rooms aren’t broken, they’re just too small.

So yes, build the room but bring the chair and walk in like you designed the blueprint! 

The right tables don’t need convincing. They recognize you at first sight! 

#LeadLoudly #bold #leadership

Idea Citizen | What do you want to see in 2026?

View group: Idea Citizen | What do you want to see in 2026?

The most undervalued leadership skill isn’t communication or strategy.
It’s knowing when to leave the wrong table.

Because staying where you’re not valued costs more than walking away ever will.

Some people never understand what you bring to the table until they see you at another one.
But by then, you’ve already moved on.

Too many brilliant people stay in rooms that dull their voice.
Leaving isn’t arrogance. It’s awareness.

In leadership and in branding, the rule is the same:
If you don’t define your worth, someone else will... and they’ll usually undervalue it.

Four reminders worth keeping close:
→ Know when the room no longer challenges you
→ Protect your energy as much as your reputation
→ Don’t confuse loyalty with limitation
→ Build a name that carries its own chair

The right tables won’t need convincing.
They’ll already have a seat with your name on it.

💡 Our moderators review posts to ensure they align with our group's purpose.

What We Value:
✅ Original ideas and insightful contributions
✅ Critical thinking and meaningful discussion
✅ Knowledge sharing and collaborative learning

Key Principles:
🔑 All ideas have value and deserve respectful consideration
🔑 Knowledge should be freely shared for the benefit of all

Please consider the below rundown when posting to the group.

-We want dialogue, not passive reads. Posts should include at least one invitation/question to invite reader engagement. 
-No link-driving: no reposts, newsletter signups, or sales pitches. Byline plugs are fine. 
-Posts should be content or opinion-forward. Real, personal takes are a big plus.
-Contributors should re-engage with comments. It’s a community, not a one-way feed. No posting and ghosting.

Lastly, not everything gets approved, even if it fits the guidelines. I try to keep the mix thoughtful and varied.

This group is a place where meaningful ideas flourish. Whether you’re starting a conversation or joining one, we encourage authenticity, engagement, and respectful discourse.

🎤 The Power of the Silent Pitch: Closing the Deal Before You Speak 🎤

Leaders often think #influence starts with their words. No! Influence starts with your wardrobe!

High performers understand that you never walk into a room neutral.

Your presence is already negotiating on your behalf signaling credibility, authority, and intention before you ever open your mouth.

That’s the power of the silent pitch everyone makes, it but almost everyone underestimates it. 🔥

📚 This is why I recommend Toi Sweeney’s  Secrets of a Well-Dressed Brand: The Art of Your Perceived Value. 📚

Toi breaks down a truth every executive should master! 

Style isn’t clothing. Style is communication. It is your first trigger for conversion! 

Every color, every silhouette, every detail transmits a message about your confidence, your clarity, and your capacity.

When your presence aligns with your purpose, you don’t just enter a room
you #influence it.

If you’re serious about elevating your influence, accelerating trust, and commanding rooms at the level your ambition requires this book is your next strategic upgrade.

Your leadership speaks.
Make sure your presence leads the conversation for #2026 & beyond

🔥 If you’ve outgrown the room you’re in… this is for you. 🔥

Most leaders don’t leave because they’re unqualified, they leave because the environment no longer matches the level of leadership they are embracing! 

And here’s the part we don’t say out loud:

You can feel when you’ve hit that point.

You feel it in the meetings that no longer challenge you.

You feel it in the conversations that keep circling the same problems.

You feel it in the way your confidence dips not because you’re lacking, but because you’re underutilized.

That’s the moment your life is asking for a strategy, not a pep talk.

And if you’re reading this thinking,
“Yep… that’s exactly where I am,”
then this is your invitation:


⚡️ The #LeadLoudly Strategy Session $97

A 90-minute deep dive designed for the woman who knows they have outgrown their current chapter and needs clarity on:

✨ Your next leadership move

✨ The value you bring (and how to articulate it powerfully)

✨ How to position yourself for roles, rooms, and opportunities that match your capacity

✨ What to stop, start, and strengthen in the next 90 days

✨ How to rebuild your confidence after being underestimated

This isn’t a generic session.
This is clarity, courage, and strategy tailored to where you’re going, not where you’ve been.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign?
… this is the sign.


Drop #LeadLoudly below or DM me the word, and I’ll send the details.

Because your next level won’t meet you in the room you’ve outgrown but it will meet you in the room you intentionally seek!

📣 “ Leaders don’t chase; they architect. And the silent buyer is won through #systems, not sales scripts!” _ Nathalie Gregg 📣

Phenomenal webinar today with Maiko 🌏 Sakai and the biggest aha?

If you’re not speaking to the silent buyer, you’re leaving up to 80% of your revenue on the table.

Most people are building content for the loud buyer: the commenters, the DM-ers, the “I have a question…” crowd.

But the silent buyer is a completely , different universe.

Here’s what most entrepreneurial leaders  miss:

🔹 They do EXTREME due diligence.
🔹 They make fast, decisive moves once aligned.
🔹 They never engage with your content publicly not a like, comment, or DM.
🔹 But they will show up out of nowhere… ready to buy.

And that’s exactly why your #quiz matters.

A well-built quiz speaks directly to the silent buyer. 🔥
It guides them through their customer journey privately, calmly, intentionally. 🔥
It gives them clarity, language, and direction without forcing them into conversation before they’re ready. 🔥

By the time they reach the end?

They’ve self-qualified.
They’ve connected the dots.
They’ve taken themselves through the transformation. And they are ready for inspired action.

This is how you stop guessing, stop chasing, and start converting the buyers who were watching you the whole time.

Silent buyers don’t need more persuasion.
They need more precision and your quiz is the bridge.

Cheers ☕️ to curating a #LeadLoudly #leadership quiz for the #silentbuyer!

📣 Leadership is no longer optional: It’s the story that drives every outcome, human or AI. 📣

Exceptional leaders don’t just manage, they engineer momentum. 

Every team member, every AI agent, every workflow executes the story you design. 

Leadership is about clarity, alignment, and forward motion.

The principles are the same whether you’re leading humans or orchestrating AI:

• Clarity: Your vision must be unmistakable.

•Alignment: Every person and system must move in sync with your strategy.

•Momentum: Leadership is measured by the velocity you create toward meaningful outcomes.

Your narrative sets the tone, shapes behavior, and drives results. 

The stronger your story, the higher your leverage.

Here’s the question for leaders today: 

What story are you telling? Is it moving your teams human and AI alike toward the future you intend?

Leadership isn’t optional. It’s the force that transforms vision into reality.

Cheers ☕️ to leading with strategy, story, and impact.
