Thysha Shabazz is an entrepreneur, author and parent living in Brooklyn. A Virginia native, she moved to New York over 20 years ago, and has worked in a variety of media roles at companies like NBC and Time Inc. In her twenties, Thysha ventured into entrepreneurship and created Shabazz Communications, now known as the Shabazz Team, an international events, communications and management company. 

Thysha is also the creator of the LOUD Girl Movement, a platform for Black women, and is the author of LOVE YOUR LOUD, a guide to encouraging Black women to be authentically themselves in the workplace.

As a wife and mother of two, Thysha spends a lot of time thinking about labor and success in the context of Black motherhood and Black family. During our chat, we discuss Thysha’s upbringing, striking it out on her own as an entrepreneur, and her intentionality-focused approach to rearing her two daughters. I think you’ll really enjoy this episode.
