EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of Black Businesses Matter, I speak with Char'Nese M. Turner, an esteemed author, journalist, and entrepreneur. Char'Nese is the founder and CEO of Tribe Tribute, a women’s empowerment organization aimed at motivating women and girls to embrace their true selves. She reflects on her early years and how her mother’s encouragement led her to explore writing and journaling, fueling a passion that evolved from creative writing to journalism. With over ten years of experience in the field, Char'Nese has worked with notable platforms such as NBC Los Angeles, New York, Ebony-JET Magazine, WGN-TV, and NewsNation. Currently, she is the Senior Associate Writer for the Obama Foundation, overseeing editorial content.


In the podcast, Char'Nese delves into the origins of Tribe Tribute, describing how the idea grew out of her experiences during her academic journey and the sense of isolation she felt while transitioning from undergraduate to postgraduate studies. From loneliness, she created a community for women of various ages. The organization has since expanded to encompass women from 18 to 65, fostering a sense of connection and empowerment for all involved.
