A great leader becomes iconic in their industry. They are essential to a business’s success. One that makes quality decisions, knows how to motivate a crowd, and achieves competitive goals is the kind of leadership you want.

Anita Charlot is an author, professional speaker, creator of The Happy Executive Woman Podcast™, Business Relationship Management Professional (BRMP), and CEO of Relationship Architect Academy. 

She provides 1:1 Executive Coaching programs, a Mastermind Group, courses, workshops, and retreats that taught women how to navigate their work, home and love lives with confidence and calm, all while being in command of their emotions.

Anita has shifted the focus of her business from personal relationships to helping women of color heal from corporate/workplace trauma, increasing their confidence and leadership skills, to teaching white people how to ACTivate Your Privilege™!

“Public speaking as a business owner is very important. It is a great way to reach a large number of people at the same time, connecting with them by sharing the solutions to a problem they are having and showing how you/your product is THE one to help them with it.”

As a coach + professional speaker, Anita states it feeds her soul knowing that she is helping another small business owner move forward in their business endeavors.

We asked Anita why women should attend Flourish Media Conference and what will they learn from her talk. 

She shared: “Flourish Media Media conference is the place to go if you want to be in the room with people that look like you, have experienced similar life experiences as you, and are genuinely interested in giving back, and sharing how they made it in their business so that you can make it in yours. 

Just being in the room, you can't help but feel the energy. The FMC staff gets more and more organized every year. It is a top-notch event, with top-notch talent, providing top-notch talent and information for women of color in business. Not to mention the ability to pitch for up to $15 Million all provided by investors that are actually IN THE ROOM with you the entire time.”

Anita applied to speak at FMC because she has attended Flourish Media Conference as an attendee, panelist, and workshop facilitator as an executive relationship coach.

With so many women of color being subjected to "so called" DEI programs that are re-traumatizing women of color vs. helping them, they need to understand how to...

- Heal from past workplace trauma

- Understand what a REAL Ally looks like

- Focus on their own psychological safety.

- Respond to micro aggressions without sounding aggressive

- And more.

Anita wrapped up her conversation with Flourish by saying: Take full advantage of the resources that you have been provided. Focus the grant award on the things that can help you move your business forward in the most impactful way.
