There’s a system to network storytelling and pitching that’s rarely talked about. I’m breaking it down as a featured speaker at the Sound of Life Storytelling Workshop in Asheville, NC in just two weeks. Send me a dm if you want to register for the @sound_of_life_media conference. by @adriennebroaddus

A stroke three years ago left my aunt unable to talk and walk. Tonight, she said my name when we finished praying. I’m still expecting the impossible. by @adriennebroaddus

Branden Colvin, 18, should be getting ready for his high school graduation Saturday. But he refuses to leave the scene – even as officials warn the rest of the building could come crashing down at any time. Here’s some of our conversation. Update: Authorities told Colvin Jr.’s family Saturday afternoon the body of his father, Branden Colvin Sr., had been recovered from the rubble of the partially collapsed apartment building in Davenport, Iowa. #AdrienneOnAir by @adriennebroaddus

Here’s a little motivation to start your week! I love the wisdom @ariansimone shared @goodsoilforum in Dallas: “When it comes to God’s plan, you’re either going to surrender by force or by choice.” by @adriennebroaddus

Saginaw will always be home. Receiving a Young Professionals award from the NAACP Saginaw branch last weekend was incredibly special. Thank you!! Even more meaningful was seeing people I admire in our community receive the hero award, including my longtime piano teacher Demona Reed. She always told/tells her students, “If you believe you can achieve.” More photos and a full recap to come. Because Baby, @drglendaglover dropped some gems that I need to share! by @adriennebroaddus

Get serious about your money.

I loved how @larryjonesstockup used a short amount of time to pack in so much practical information. This was one of the gems that stood out to me today at the Maconomics Wealth Summit held Saturday.

Attorney Ben Crump fights the cases. Journalists tell the stories. There’s a responsibility that comes with telling people’s story and power when those who understand the weight of that work come together. That connection is one of the things I value most about NABJ. So during #NABJ26 I asked @attorneycrump what he loves the most about @nabjofficial. by @adriennebroaddus

Nearly two decades in the game and NABJ still gives me fire. I’m forever a student in an industry that keeps rewriting the script. So much more to share but first a few photos and videos from the 2026 National Association of Black Journalists Conference in Atlanta. #NABJ #NABJ26 #ATL by @adriennebroaddus
