    Episode 1: The Alignment Question Black Women Aren't Asking Out Loud
    Featuring Krys Lassiter, Founder & Principal, Realign by Design

    Many professional Black women are doing everything they were told to do and still feel like something is off. In this debut episode of In The Room, host Kimberly Lipscomb sits down with Krys Lassiter, licensed professional counselor, organizational development expert, and founder of Realign by Design, for an honest conversation about what happens when success on paper no longer feels like enough.

    In this episode we cover:

    • Why success and alignment are not the same thing
    • How high-achieving Black women are bred for effort, not fulfillment
    • The fear of stepping off the path you've worked so hard to build
    • Why your personal power lies in understanding the expectation
    • How to find small wins when everything feels like it's happening to you
    • The "bathroom moment" realignment reset you can start today
