About Pink Parachute Diaries

The ladder may be broken, but Black women are building launchpads. Pink Parachute Diaries is the unapologetic podcast for ambitious sisters who’ve been handed pink slips instead of golden parachutes—and decided to fly anyway. Hosted by E.R. Spaulding, powerhouse behind BlackWoman Startup, each week spotlights fearless trailblazers rewriting the rules of career, power, and purpose. From C-suite leaders who walked away from toxic boardrooms to creatives turning side hustles into full-blown empires, these are the stories behind the pivots, the passion, and the quiet power moves. You’ll get real-talk strategy, behind-the-scenes lessons, and bold confessions about the climb, the crash, and the comeback. Expect smart side-eye, belly laughs, and wisdom you can actually use—because your next move deserves more than motivational fluff. The vibe? Grounded, grown, and game-changing. These diaries are a reckoning—and a rally cry. Press play and pack your parachute, Sis. We’re not falling—we’re flying.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
