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 Black professionals can thrive amid the quiet rollback of diversity initiatives by building "community armor." Drawing on insights from Twyla Weaver, we discuss the power of meticulous documentation, the transformative impact of grassroots community spaces, and the importance of sharing authentic stories. Discover practical strategies for resilience, mutual support, and redefining success on your own terms—even when institutional protections fade. Join us as we reimagine professional spaces through collective empowerment and unapologetic self-expression.
