RISE Urban Nation is a culture and business podcast amplifying the voices of Black and Pan-African entrepreneurs, innovators, and changemakers who are rewriting the narrative of success. Hosted by Taryell Simmons, each episode blends storytelling, strategy, and social impact to help purpose-driven leaders grow their brands, visibility, and confidence through the power of authentic storytelling.
This show was born from Taryell’s mission to close the visibility gap for Black and Pan-African creators who often feel unseen in mainstream media. Many of our listeners are solo entrepreneurs, small business owners, and nonprofit leaders juggling multiple roles—trying to grow online, attract clients, and build community while fighting overwhelm and imposter syndrome. They don’t just want to be heard—they want to be understood and celebrated.
At its core, RISE Urban Nation exists to unite our untold stories across the Black diaspora, to uplift and amplify our voices that have too often been silenced, distorted, or erased by mainstream media, and to ignite new ideas and communities into action. Through our collective storytelling, we reclaim narrative power—transforming history, heritage, and hustle into hope and healing for generations to come.
Each week, we feature innovators, visionaries, and community builders—from San Diego to cities across the globe—who remind us that representation isn’t just about being seen; it’s about being valued, respected, and heard. Every episode offers practical takeaways and inspiration for entrepreneurs ready to transform their story into a platform for visibility, impact, and legacy.
If you’ve ever wondered how to turn your voice into a vehicle for purpose and profit, this is your blueprint. Tune in and discover what it means to Unite. Uplift. Ignite.
