Comment DIGITAL to join the waitlist.
This box sat in my house for a year...
I didn’t know what was inside.

Opening it took me back to being broke.
Living paycheck to paycheck. Wondering how l’d pay the bills.

Crying... searching for answers... wondering if things would ever change.

Inside... was my 6 Figure award from Stan Store-a platform where everyday people can sell digital products and courses online.

I remembered how hard I’d prayed to make it here.

And now... here l am.
God, thank You. I am so grateful.

If you’re struggling right now... please don’t quit on yourself. I remember being exactly where you are.

I’m creating something just for you-to help you create, price, and sell your very first digital product and trust me it’s not as hard as you think.

Comment DIGITAL to join the waitlist.

Maybe one day soon... you’ll be opening a box of your very own.

Allow me to reintroduce myself.
I am a branding, business, and book coach, a marketing and branding strategist and a Purpose Pusher!

I help Parents and Kids write and publish books, monetize their imaginations, make money online and discover their passion and purpose in life.

My mentor, introduced me at my very 1st
Purpose Pushers LIVE 2025 conference.
He first met me when I was 14 years old. I was shy, introverted and sheltered.

A little girl who thought she didn’t have much to offer.
But he saw something in me that I couldn’t see in myself.
He put me on.
He taught me.
He prepared me to stand on stages before I ever believed I belonged on one.

Years later, when I finally said yes to my purpose and started Brenda Talks
Business, I reached out to him and told him I was ready to walk in my purpose.
I had zero followers, no business plan and no product.

And yet, he believed in me and immediately invested in my business.
That belief mattered.

Fast forward to standing on a stage at our very first conference, hundreds of people in the room, and the same man who believed in me at 14 is introducing me again.

He coached me, poured into me, helped me increase my confidence and believing in me.

Now I am doing it for others.
Years later, I am coaching others to increase their income simply by using their skills, gifts and talents so that can build a business that funds their freedom.

If vou need a coach and a mentor to do
for you, what Keith did for me, comment the word “I Need a Mentor”

WE DID IT!! We hosted our very 1st conference ever, and it was absolutely incredible!
Some drove over 20 hours, and others flew in from outside the country.

What started as a mission to help 1,000 kids become published authors has grown into a global movement helping families change their financial future by writing books, launching online businesses and building generational wealth.

This weekend was full of knowledge, creativity, transformation, healing and “aha!” moments. 💡

We made history with our first award ceremony, celebrating kid authors and adults whose books hit #1 New Release on Amazon through our publishing program. 📚✨

The journey hasn’t been easy, and there were days that we felt like giving up but I’m so grateful we didn’t. This is what it looks like when you say YES to the assignment on your life. With vision come provision 🙏

To our volunteers, mentees, speakers and kid authors, thank you for showing up and shining so bright. 🌟

To my co-founder Quawanza and our son Legend, thank you for believing in the vision when it was just a dream. You are my Purpose Pushers. 💛

And to Keith L. Brown, thank you for believing & investing in me when I didn’t believe in myself. Lives were changed because of you.

Tyeisha you and your team did your thing. Everything looked absolutely incredible!

This isn’t just a course or a coaching program.
This is a MOVEMENT. 🌍

We’re helping families all over the world create legacy, impact, and income, one family at a time.

This one is very personal. The hand I’m holding on the cover of this reel is that of global business coach, “purpose pusher,” and founder of “Purpose Pushers Academy,” and “Kid Authors Academy,” brilliant and bold @brendatalksbusiness. Coach Brenda trains and coaches thousands, and almost 30 years ago, I was her High School Drama Director and Mentor. I was intentional about putting her on stages then that I knew would prepare her for the national and global stages she excels on now. Today, she is my colleague and one of my coaches. From Oxygen network, NPR, NBC to Essence Magazine and more, this Global Coach is helping individuals discover & expand their purpose, become award winning authors and turn their creativity into currency. I strongly advise you to watch the full video. #MrImPossible #executivecoach #speakercoach #speaker #trainer #brendatalksbusiness #globalcoach #speaker #purposepusher #purposepushsrsacademy #kidauthorsacademy #whenthestudentbecomestheteacher

It’s a 3-day AI Marketing & Business Conference where you’ll learn how to grow your business, publish a book, make money online, build your social media platform, and uplevel your life because you were not born to just be broke, have burdens, and pay bills.

And we couldn’t stop there! This is a conference for the whole family. While the adults will be learning at the Purpose Pushers conference. The kids will be having their own conference called Kid Authors Academy where they’ll be learning all about financial literacy, how to write & publish their own book, and how to launch their first product.

After years of being a marketing strategies, CEO, and product creator and making multiple six figures online I am happy to share all that I have learned to help others find their purpose and turn it into profits! This conference will be a no gatekeeping zone.

Long Post Alert 🚨: Please Read All.

Two’s Day Tuesday:
You said you were “Ready” for something BIG, and here’s the first installment in a week of BIG News. 30 years ago, I met & became the High School English Teacher and Drama Coach/Director of an intelligent, creative, kind, somewhat shy young lady. She allowed me to coach her, sharpen her and she became an award winning “One Act Play,” actress, pageant winner, speaker & much more. I was hard on her, as I knew she had a huge gift inside. I was a vessel, but she did the work! Fast forward to today, and this Renaissance woman has been featured on Oxygen Network, NPR, and many other media outlets nationwide. She’s a globally recognized coach, marketing strategist, purpose pusher and founder of “Purpose Pushers Academy,” & “Kid Authors Academy.”

One of the greatest moments for Educators is when their students/scholars excel beyond them. Brilliant, Bold @brendatalksbusiness, now coaches me in key areas of my business.

Today- I’m Honored and Proud to announce the Mentor/Mentee Collaboration- “Unlocking Genius Together: The Kid Authors Academy of Leadership and Entrepreneurship.”

Please Tag Someone You’ve Mentored and made a positive difference in their lives or Someone Who Mentored You and Made a Positive Difference in Yours

If you are a people pleaser, this is for you. If people are taking your love, time and attention for granted, let them go. It’s time to release them and let them go because you have to protect your peace at all cost.
