As we prepare to step into a new season of 2025, I’ve been deeply reflecting—not just on what I’ve accomplished, but on what continues to fuel the work I’ve been called to do. One truth remains clear: " Business is the heartbeat of every industry." - LadyCEO The Unseen Engine Behind Every Field Think about a university campus. One institution, yet multiple colleges—Engineering, Agriculture, Health Sciences, Communications, Education, Humanities—all equipping students for their chosen professions. And while every discipline has its own language and function, they all rely on one core infrastructure to thrive: business . Whether you’re a scientist in a lab, a nurse in a clinic, a teacher in a classroom, or an artist on stage— your work still enters into the flow of commerce, resources, sustainability, and economic impact. And when I began my deeper studies in economics and finance , it all clicked. No matter the industry, no matter the title— the principles of business ar...

We work so hard—day in and day out—trying to prove ourselves in life and in our careers. Battling imposter syndrome. Silencing doubt. Overcoming character flaws that were never flaws to begin with—just mislabelings of our brilliance by people who never understood our light. And in the process, many of us spend years trying to earn a seat at tables that were never meant for us. But here’s the truth: Some of you still want seats at a table God would have wanted you to flip. See, everyone loves the verse— “Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of my enemies” (Psalm 23:5). But what if the focus was never supposed to be on the enemies, but on the table that God is preparing for you ? That table? That’s where nourishment, peace, purpose, and alignment are served. Not gossip. Not manipulation. Not status. Not control. Some of us are so hungry for belonging that we’ll take a seat at a table that serves food that poisons our soul—and we call it opportunity. But don’t forget: ...

  By Xave D. Morgan | Profit In Your Purpose, Breaking Chains & Building Wealth I’ve dealt with  imposter syndrome  for  years . Quietly. Behind the scenes. Smiling while second-guessing myself. Showing up, even when I didn’t feel “qualified” enough to speak, lead, create, or shine. But something shifted. Today, I no longer carry that weight. I’ve defeated it. And what a plot twist—because now that I’m walking boldly in my light, I’ve noticed that there are people who feel the need to dim it. They say: “Don’t say too much.” “You’re too passionate.” “You sound emotional.” “Try to be more polished.” “You come across a little too strong.” And what they don’t realize is this: They are being used to test me. To test whether or not I’ve truly left imposter syndrome behind. To see if I will silence myself again just to make them comfortable. Spoiler alert: I won’t. The Misunderstood Glow-Up People mistake my passion for aggression. My assertiveness for being “too emotio...

I had to shake the olive branch. And not gently either—this shake came with the full force of a woman who finally realized that she’s not just called… she’s chosen . Between the last time I sat here to pour out my truth and now, something shifted in me—no, everything shifted in me. My power has stepped to the front of the stage. My fear? It’s been escorted off the premises, and I’m confident I’ll never see it in that same form again. And for that , I’m proud. For that, I am firmly rooted in my assignment . I am no longer bending to the will of people who didn’t create me. I am no longer subscribing to the projections of what others think I should be doing with my life, my talents, or my time. I’m not here to check off man-made boxes or meet fabricated deadlines of so-called success. I'm here on assignment—from the Most High. And I’m no longer afraid to edify that. I’ll shout it from the rooftops if I have to. This is June 2025 . Half the year is behind us—and for me, the othe...

To the  Purposed people I serve in the Entrepreneur and Small Business Ecosystem! Listen, we made it through March, honey! SMH (I think lol) 😵‍💫 If you see or speak to me on a weekly basis, YOU KNOW THE REAL DEAL—and let me tell you, this retrograde did the absolute most this season 🤧. If you know, you know. BUT! It ALL worked out for your good- if you let it.. Honestly, it’s been some heavy lifting down here in Southside Virginia. Many businesses in the ecosystem are preparing for the amazing opportunities that the new casino will bring, and let me tell you—it’s a grind! 💪🏾 You know, there’s something about being affiliated with big names and sitting in boardrooms where decisions get made about the ecosystem of Petersburg . That’s one thing. But it’s a whole different grind being in the trenches, face-to-face with the minority-owned small businesses  and entrepreneurs too! (less than 250 employees) who make it all come together—who put in the hard work, sweat, and tea...
