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.

In this episode, we explore how true empowerment for Black professionals goes beyond simply increasing representation in the workplace. Drawing inspiration from Trinene Davis, we examine the systemic barriers that persist even as diversity numbers rise, and highlight the importance of authentic leadership, personal branding, and collective advocacy. Through real-world examples and actionable insights, discover how Black professionals are not just occupying spaces, but transforming them—creating environments where Black excellence is expected, celebrated, and centered. Join us as we challenge conventional thinking and inspire purposeful action to redesign the table for lasting change.
