Heyyyy BLAC Girls! You are in for a treat this week. In this conversation I keke with my homegrown Detroit Girl Bri from the D.  Abriana is Broadcast Journalist, Producer, Podcast Host, Blogger, and all around creative. She’s a Black Queen growing into the best version of herself, accomplishing her goals, breaking generational curses and doing it all in style. Known to most as Bri from the D, she represents Detroit to a T. She was raised in Detroit, went to Detroit Public Schools and Graduated from Wayne State University in Detroit. Now she spends her time working on creative projects for and about the city. "I really don't think life is about the I-could-have-beens. Life is only about the I-tried-to-do. I don't mind the failure but I can't imagine that I'd forgive myself if I didn't try." -Nikki Giovanni The perfect quote to describe Bri.  Keep up with Bri on her website www.brifromthed.com.

Jasmine Ivanna Espy is a force to be reckoned with, she's a queen. A Broadcast Journalist, Documentarian, Poet, Director, Writer, Sound Engineer, HS Advocate, and an all around interdisciplinary artist. From the moment I saw her I knew she was destined for greatness. We graduated from Wayne State together, we practically walked across the stage at the same time. After graduation she did what some people dream their whole lives about, she went to Caliiiiiiifornia! She attended The University of Southern California for her graduate degree and I believe it was there that Jasmine found her first purpose to pursue.

Tiara Boyd is the owner of Esthi Queen Healing Spa. The spa offers traditional things like bikini waxes and mani & pedis. But they also offer vajacials, yoni steams, chemical peels, dermaplaning and more! Tiara uses social media to fuel her career and express her message to her Esthi Queens.
