Description

Welcome to The Becoming Table Talk!

You're not here by accident. You're done being overlooked, underpaid, and exhausted from doing everyone else's work.

At The Becoming Table, we have real conversations about what it takes to stop over-functioning and start over-earning. This is where ambitious BIPOC women in helping professions get the strategies, support, and truth-telling they need to secure the promotions and compensation they've earned.

Hosted by Dr. Laryssa Creswell, Shawn Anderson, LaTrise Wilson, and Crystal Funderburk — licensed clinicians and leadership strategists who've navigated these same workplace barriers and come out on top.

This is your space to:

✓ Transform over-functioning into strategic leadership

✓ Master the conversations that lead to promotions and raises

✓ Set boundaries that protect your energy and elevate your influence

✓ Navigate workplace dynamics without code-switching or shrinking

✓ Build authentic leadership presence that commands respect

Pull up a chair. This is where you stop waiting for recognition and start claiming what's yours.

Your next promotion isn't about doing more—it's about leading differently.

Let's talk about how.
