Meet Ebony Rice, aka Emily #emilydidit.   She is a young, multi-talented up and coming entrepreneur with a unique sense of fashion.  Ebony is a Personal Stylist and has boldly relaunched her brand “Emilydidit, LLC”, during the pandemic, in Las Vegas Nevada.  

Years ago when she moved to Atlanta, the New York native began freelance styling. She quickly picked up clients such as commercial and print model Mapillar Dahn and EncoreHD hair Magazine, along with Editor in Chief, Larry J. Stephens 

Ebony is responsible for Mapillar’s spread in volume 10, 11 & 12 of EncoreHD Hair Magazine, her look at the release party, and many of her red carpet looks. 

Anyone who knows Ebony knows that she has a fun and quirky sense of humor, and she is a joy to work with. 

As the Lead Fashion Consultant for EncoreHD Magazine she acquired the name "Emily" by Editor in Chief Larry J Stephens, in homage to the team's favorite fashion movie “The Devil Wears Prada.” On any given photo shoot, you can hear him yell, “Emily!” at least a 100 times during a 10 hour shoot, hence the hashtag #emilydidit.

Ebony is a hard worker and kills the game every where she goes.  Listen in as she tells us how she committed her life to change…..

Meet today’s VIP guest…Ashley Provencher!

Ashley started her entrepreneurial journey by owning a brick and mortar called Golden Rays Apothecary and Wellness, as a holistic healthcare practitioner. Due to Covid, she had to transition to an online business.  Ashley believed she could make a bigger impact individually.  So she decided to focus on one -on- one coaching.  

She is a certified Herbalist, Reiki Master teacher, and Intuitive. Since she had to  pivot her business to focus on life coaching, she could finally bring all of her tools of the trade together in order to help women become stronger.  

She believes in emphasizing balance in the the wholeness of a person.  She teaches women to be empowered and confident to get them on the path they deserve. 

Ashley is not a stranger to mental and physical struggles. She has had to battle Multiple Sclerosis daily.   She knew that she needed to change herself first in order to change the world around her. By turning over her own spiritual, mental and emotional health she was able to take charge of her own physical health.

Welcome Chinwe (Ohana -lay) Ohanele!  She is an attorney and entrepreneur who has navigated the politics of identity, culture, and access much of her life. She runs a law firm that caters to BIPOC creatives, entrepreneurs, and small businesses. 

Chinwe has worked extensively on frameworks necessary to support Pan-African media initiatives and creative entrepreneurship.

Additionally, Chinwe has consulted with various Nigerian entertainment and media stakeholders around best practices and policies necessary for de-risking investments in an uncertain market. Chinwe is now using her professional skills as a lawyer and her passion for content to share how intellectual property can empower under-represented voices, and address wealth disparities for invisible communities.

Her goal is to demystify the legalese behind intellectual property for minority communities so that we can monetize and maintain the value of our ideas and our stories.
