Celebrity Stories From The Black Community

Marcellas Reynolds

Before becoming the Bachelorette, Rachel was a lawyer practicing civil defense litigation- sticking up for the underrepresented even before having a platform. She later became the first woman of color to be the Bachelorette. But along with that title, she had pressures hoisted on her that previous Bachelorettes did not. How did her humble journey lead her to become an iconic representative of the Black community, and was it even fair that she had to fill that role whether she wanted to or not? How did those pressures inform her behavior on the show and off?

In this moderated discussion, Rachel talks about her history in law, how it influenced her decision to go on the show, and how she used her fame after to create a platform of entertainment while educating. She also talks about diversity in the media, why representation does matter, and how things have changed so much in the short amount of time she's been a household name. Of course, she's not above dishing Bachelorette dirt too!

Olivia Hill is a trailblazer- as the first transgender woman to be elected in Tennessee, she's rewritten the rules for what can happen in a conservative state. In deep-red Tennessee, Hill’s win is emblematic of something greater. It signals a sea change spearheaded by Olivia, and her story is as inspiring as it is surprising.

Olivia discusses all the aspects of her personal journey, the effects her transition had on her family, career, & politics, and how she won an election in a state that's currently passing anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation. She also discusses her experiences serving in the US navy's engineering division for 10 years and experiencing intense workplace discrimination while working at Vanderbilt University's power plant. Olivia's unique story shows that light can always be found in dark places, how just one person truly can help make a difference, and how you can join in to fight discrimination.

Courtney Lohmann

I came to Courtney’s session hungry for answers and a sense that I could make a difference and have an impact in the realm of sustainable meetings.

Jessie States, CMP, CMM

I have had the idea of Impact, sustainability, and improving our world ever since I started the recycling program in my school in 7th grade. What have I done about it since then? The answer is not enough. It has been on my mind so much lately. So much that I joined my company’s business council and was able to hear our chief social impact officer speak. That got my wheels turning, and then BOOM, I had a session with Courtney and had the privilege of listening to her Keynote at a recent conference. Not only did it stress the importance of this issue to me but inspired me. This inspired me to reach out to my companies Chief Impact Officer to see how I can become more involved and what I can do to make an impact in this space. Courtney is as she claims, engaging, practical, & approachable. She provokes thought on an issue that cannot go unaddressed.

Natalie Ippolito

“The Incredible Boris” joined us at OECM’s 3rd Leadership and Collaboration Symposium as the special guest entertainer. The Symposium, attended by 175 senior leaders and delegates from across Ontario’s broader public sector. 
From the outset of his show, Boris demonstrated the utmost professionalism, displaying a genuine passion for his craft that was evident to all in attendance.

Myth Movement supports professional women through dynamic creative workshops that  leverage mindfulness practices and storytelling tools to enhance self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-leadership in order to access our truest, healthiest and most vibrant selves. Designed by women for women, our workshops tap into serious play to harness our creative power and to reconnect with the wisdom of our bodies. What are the myths that need to move in order for our true potential to be realized? 

Where many storytelling workshops emphasize skill-building through a final performance or final story, our workshops focus on process and embodied practice. Our story-based exercises support mental and emotional well-being, resilience, community building, and soulful self-leadership.

Additional workshops drawing on storytelling and songwriting are in development, and we welcome opportunities to customize experiences based on client themes and needs.

Women-led creative workshops for professional women

Myth Movement

In our primary workshop, we guide participants through imaginative meditation, embodied exploration, and storytelling exercises to explore the ways our creative power is impacted by the archetypes we embody. Participants will identify stories and archetypes that have supported their growth in the past and those that will support their desired transformation. Our workshops focus on process and embodied practice.

Embodying Archetypes Workshop

Using storytelling exercises to bring awareness to the  narratives that are shaping our experience of life and work, we guide each participant to identify a more empowering narrative. From the new story,  they are able to create an affirmation, which we then shape into a unique “affirmation song” for them to take away.

Story and Song Workshop

It was so refreshing to be in a room full of women talking about how they see themselves currently, and how they want to see themselves. It was a great way to learn more about who I work closely with, and how we can lift each other up to reach our personal goals.

Jackie

I appreciated the opportunity to be still. To be led. To connect with myself and be vulnerable with myself. Perhaps that sounds strange, but when you are so focused on others it can be difficult to be vulnerable with yourself.

Shannon W.

Thank you for this space to interrupt the flow of reflexive action at work and make room for internal course correction. This is a practice I intend to take with me starting tomorrow morning when I open my laptop for the first time.

Lindsey W

The Myth Movement workshop is an embodied practice of reorienting oneself in your work, using body movements and archetypes to consider stress and burnout as well as refreshment. I appreciated Johanna and Christa's ability to design and lead a Zoom workshop through an unusually embodied lens of varying formats, prompts and structures to foster a place of connection and refreshment, together and individually.

Alicia was such a fantastic addition to our themed event! She’s the real deal and really spent time and energy on every one of our guests and each person who received a personal reading was raving about it. Also her energy is just great and she’s an all around bright and positive presence. Couldn’t be more thankful for you, Alicia!!!

Gabe

I Looooove Alicia so much! Let me say to anyone looking for a tarot reader, please book Alicia you won’t regret it!! When planning my company’s holiday party, I was struggling to find the right tarot card reader for our party. I wanted to ensure I got someone that would be the perfect fit and vibe for us. When someone at work recommended her I instantly felt a connection and said “Yes! She’s the one!” My experience with her was so insightful. I’m so grateful I got to experience a tarot reading with her. She gave me clarity in what direction I should take on a personal matter I was struggling with. Not only was she so insightful and accurate but I felt like I was talking to a best friend as well. I had an amazing experience with her. She’s the real deal. I love that she is spiritual. Once again highly recommend her. Thank you so much Alicia for your guide. I appreciate everything you said to me. Looking forward to having you at our next event!

Jennifer

Alicia's tarot reading service is nothing short of exceptional. Her intuitive insights and warm demeanor captivated every guest who had the pleasure of sitting with her. Not only did she provide insightful readings, but she also created a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere that allowed everyone to fully enjoy the experience.

It was remarkable to witness how Alicia effortlessly engaged with each guest, leaving them with a memorable and enriching experience. The feedback we received from attendees was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing their admiration for Alicia's talent and genuine kindness.

She undoubtedly contributed to the success of our event, and we look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with her again in the future.

Brenda

My husband and I recently renewed our vows and naturally needed to have a Tarot Reader! I have seen all the magical people. I am very careful of the who who I work with spiritually and professionally. I met with several Tarot Readers and just knew Alicia was the one within the first 5 minutes of our zoom. We did a short reading which really sealed the deal. She was very honest, which first had me like..UGH...but she knew just the right questions to ask that felt actionable, which is something I never experienced with other readers. I've been thinking about that reading ever since! For our vow renewal, our guests who were able to have a session with her had such enlightening experiences, and I swear she has changed the course of so many of their lives. My heart was so happy! She brought a beautiful set up. Plus she perfectly nailed our Vanity Fair Oscars After Party dress code :) HIGHLY recommend Alicia for private sessions and parties. I can't wait for my next reading!

Jordan

Alicia truly has a gift, and she's SO HUMBLE about it!! First, she creates such a safe, warm, and welcoming space where you feel grounded and can remain present throughout the reading. She is transparent and authentic and answers all your questions, plus helps you figure out what questions you're trying to answer. She operates with no judgment, but with AMAZING insight. I got chills several times as she repeated words I had said to myself that NOBODY knew about. The reading was not only incredibly accurate, but it felt like she was reading my soul. I cried so many times from the truths she uncovered for me, and the clarity she gave me. I've had readings done by other people but NEVER has a reading resonated so deeply and been so completely on point! Alicia's energy is one of a kind, and much like her beautiful, bright, and safe. Book her ASAP!

Maritza

Alicia gave such an insightful, thoughtful and generous reading — making sure I understood each card and going the extra mile to provide me with the clarity I was seeking. I appreciated how kind and patient she was with all of my questions. I left the session feeling lighter and clearer about my next steps. Alicia’s encouraging energy made the whole experience really special. Thank you, Alicia for your guidance! 🙏

Liann

The absolute best reading I’ve ever gotten. I found her through a hot girls run LA event where I hadn’t even finished sitting down when a card flew out of her deck. I knew I had to book with her. Super detailed and helpful. Can’t wait to msg her and say she was right. Will definitely be booking again.
Thanks so much Alicia!

Linda

We need more stars!!! Alicia is so great in many ways. She genuinely cares about giving each reading 1000%, she loves giving next steps for our journeys and is overall FUN!!! Thank You Alicia!!!

I am incredibly grateful for Alicia and the way she has helped me open up new pathways to self-care and self-love. Through her insightful readings, I’ve begun to realize that taking care of myself goes far beyond surface-level treatments. She’s guided me to discover deeper, more meaningful ways to prioritize my well-being—whether it’s through creative expression, setting boundaries, or simply allowing myself to receive.

Alicia’s wisdom and gentle encouragement have helped me shift my mindset from being a constant giver to understanding the importance of receiving. Her ability to connect so deeply with where I am in my life has been invaluable. She has such a calming presence, and I always leave our sessions feeling more in tune with myself.

I am beyond thankful for her continued support and the clarity she has brought to my journey. Alicia is truly a gifted soul, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking deeper insight and personal growth.

Monica

I was at an intense crossroads in my life when I asked her to do a reading for me. I needed a sense of direction and received it in aces. She looked to understand the specific landscape of my life and made the whole experience relaxing and fun. I’ll definitely be coming back when I need future guidance.

Matthew

I was super nervous about doing a reading, and I left with so much peace and clarity. Alicia did an amazing job in helping me feel comfortable. A lot of things that we talked about were conversations that I needed to have. I am beyond speechless with how accurate Alicia was. Highly recommend a reading to anyone who needs to find clarity moving forward. (:

Rosie

I was nervous booking my very first tarot card reading with Alicia. But she made the experience as smooth and comfortable for me as possible. She was able to answer my questions with precision and months later, these things came to pass with accuracy. I do not recommend everyone to anybody, but with Alicia, I trust her intuition and integrity with her gift and talent :)

Anonymous

I love always coming to Alicia. She's so easy to speak to and her readings are always spot on. It gives me a clarity that makes me feel full. Love coming to her anytime!

Gabby

Alicia's energy was warm from the beginning which makes me feel very comfortable with a reading especially with someone new. She was very transparent about not to make anything up if nothing is coming through which I can appreciate! Her energy and tone was the perfect mix of spirituality + realness which made everything easy to comprehend and follow. Her reading helped me validate a few things but also gained some motivation for the future. She went the extra mile to send me another note she picked up on in an email after our session. A really positive experience.

Alicia provided me with phenomenal closure and insight during a challenging time. Following the unexpected passing of the First Lady of my church, her abilities were truly remarkable. Alicia doesn't offer services with the afterlife, but her connection with her spirituality offered me solace and understanding. Her guidance extended to matters of love, unraveling hidden truths and illuminating my path. She also offered valuable clarity in my coparenting relationship, allowing me to navigate it with newfound confidence. Alicia's compassion, insight, and accuracy are a rare find. I'm deeply grateful for her support during a period of grief and uncertainty. She's a gifted guide for those seeking answers and closure.

Ashley

Alicia is so warm and genuine. This was my first reading and she made me feel so comfortable and cared for. I feel that she was able to help me better understand my path and I will definitely be coming back for more readings with her as the journey unfolds!

Kasi

Alicia is amazing! She has a great personality allowing me to feel comfortable right away. She explained everything to me before my reading so that I wouldn’t have any misconceptions which was very helpful. She is the real deal! Every single thing she said aligns with who I am and what I’m going through. Eye opening experience. Definitely worth it!!

Dian

What an amazing reading. Alicia really helped me with some very hard decisions. She was able to shed light on the situations that have kept me stagnant in order to reach my full potential. Thank you Alicia. I am eternally grateful.

Nandi

I just had a wonderful tarot card reading with @askalicia.tarot! I highly recommend booking with her if you need some clarity on things. She is love and light and all that is right in the world <3 She picked up on things that I knew, but couldn’t address with myself out loud just yet but am now ready to and she gave some excellent advice on tools for me to use for my healing and manifesting. Excellent reading! Thank you so much, Alicia!

Madelaine

Remember when you predicted I'd get a job offer I can't refuse that would require me to move? I got a job offer in Texas! :) I accepted! I start in October. THANK YOU!!

WOW. So far 2 things have been right from your reading. One was a little unfortunate… but it happened exactly as you stated. But on a brighter note, you said if I move, I’ll move to somewhere next to a body of water and I’m moving next to a lake!

My friend and I were talking about tarot card readings and she told me about her experiences. I told her that I would not go to just anybody. I had a great experience with you and I trust you and your judgement and your energy. Thank you

How are you so dead on about these things? Especially considering we didn’t have the SLIGHTEST conversation before this omg. You’re literally amazing wow.

Khaliyah

Thank you! I told my mom about it and she gonna book one too! She’s never done on before so I can’t wait for her to experience this =)

You’re good at your work!!! I’m going to have to come back for more readings!! =) Thank you soo much!!! You put it in the universe for me and it helped me take the steps to pursue it!! Thanks so much Alicia!

I had the most amazing tarot reading yesterday. Alicia's energy was incredibly warm and welcoming and she touched on a lot of things I needed clarity and confirmation on all of my questions regarding my career and relationships were answered and everything else in between resonated. I got exactly what I needed! Thank you so much.

Tori

I had a beautiful reading and experience with Alicia. She makes you feel very comfortable and you truly feel like you are talking to a friend. I love how she sets an intention before she reads. That to me was very important, as she is setting the tone and coming into the reading with pure intentions. She is very spot on with a lot if things that came up in the reading and she truly takes her time to understand the messages she is receiving. I was blown away and it was very therapeutic for me. I highly recommend her services. You will not be dissatisfied!

Elba

As an intuitive myself, I find it extremely hard to read myself without bias and without discrediting my own intuition. My reading with Alicia gave me so much clarity, so much relief, and confirmation that I can indeed trust in my own magic. The reassurance provided gave me the confidence to move forward with difficult decisions. The safe space she created for our meeting allowed me to be fully seen and heard in ways I often do not open myself up to. And her care was just what I needed to process the messaging in a gentle and kind way. Alicia is pure magic, and now she is stuck with me for life LOL.

I’ve never had a reading done before and when I learned about Alicia’s services, it was something I really wanted to try. She has a positive energy to her and makes you feel safe and comfortable, especially if it’s something you have never tried before.

I met with her for the first time in March 2022 when I was going through a breakup and she saw that I would meet a Leo or someone during Leo season who would show me what real love was like and who would pour into me and invest in me like no relationship has before.

She also informed me that I would get into graduate school next year without much effort.

Not only did I meet my current partner in August, but recently got into my doctorate program with ease.

When I tell you she’s the truth, she really is. If you’re unsure or never had a reading before, Alicia not only makes you feel comfortable, but has a real gift that always puts me at ease and gives me the guidance/clarity I am looking for. Loyal customer for life!

Pilots deal with stress all the time -- and yet, we joke about the fact that pilots always sound so calm that they're almost bored. How is that possible, when they are traveling at lethal speeds with hundreds of lives depending on their every move?

In this session, we'll explore how pilots are trained to manage stress and thrive in an environment that would be overwhelming for most. Then we'll discuss how we can apply these techniques to our own work and thinking.

Concerts can be very hit-or-miss, and most college programmers are all too familiar with the struggle of trying to find an artist that's in-budget, available, and popular among a wide range of students. 

This session will help producers depend less on the artist as the primary source of value for concert programs, and empower them to focus more on a sustainable, student-oriented tradition that can compete in today's connected culture.

Can't Afford Beyonce // Re-Thinking Concerts for a More Connected Audience

We are too busy. We're always stressed. We tell ourselves that if we just get through insert imaginary milestone here, we'll be calm and happy. But inevitably more things pop up, and we find ourselves in an endless loop of stress, without ever reaching that elusive, happy balance. 

In this session, we'll learn how to be pragmatic, focused, and HAPPY, all while being insanely productive.

THRIVE // Work, Life, and how to crush both at the same time

What makes an event successful?  Clearly, it depends on the nature (and objective) of the program - but many of us have been faced with the difficult challenge of quantifying engagement as a key step towards measuring our Return on Investment (ROI). 

When everyone has an opinion, and programming budgets can be scarce, we need to figure out how to consistently and objectively evaluate events - without stripping away the subjective magic that might just be the most critical driver of success.

Brad, a Brown University grad, is a Certified Speaking Professional — the highest earned designation from the National Speakers Association. He is also a member of the Speakers Hall of Fame, an elite group of 150 inductees worldwide.

Brad has captivated audiences across all 50 states and four continents. His clientele boasts
major names like Microsoft, Verizon, the FBI, the CIA, and the IRS (where he cleverly withheld
30% of his best ideas).

His background in entertainment is still very present in all his business presentations. Whether
he’s telling funny stories, sharing his innate and impromptu wit, or blowing audiences minds as a
mentalist - he’s definitely not your standard “talking head” speaker. He’s fresh. He’s funny. He’s
unique.

Keynote Speaker on Encouragement.   (Bonus: Brad is also a comedian mentalist!)

Brad Montgomery

Brad talks about how to strategically improve and implement the power of encouragement in the workplace to increase job satisfaction, performance and purpose. Audiences leave the program feeling valued, significant and knowing that their management cares about them.
Here’s the Key: No matter what business you are in, you’re in the people business. Focus on the people and watch your performance — and your career! — improve.

Call, and we'll talk about how we can customize a program for you!

Seeing an entertainer is one thing, but being part of a unique, unrepeatable experience is entirely different. It’s a shared moment that unites the audience, creating a bond that’s both special and fleeting. That’s what I offer—a singular event with a specific group that will never be replicated in the same way.

Because the show heavily involves the audience, it becomes even more extraordinary. It’s spontaneous, customized and very funny.  

It's the opposite of a "canned" show.

Mentalist:  Funny Mind-Reading Entertainment

Brad truly rocked it! Our entire leadership team thoroughly enjoyed Brad's session and gained valuable tools to enhance/bring joy to our work.
 
Just as there is an ongoing need for dedicated healthcare professionals like our team, there will always be a need for individuals like Brad who inspire us, reignite our passion, and remind us of the importance of the work we do. His expertise and enthusiasm have made a lasting impact on all of us.

Scott Wolpin

It’s refreshing to meet a speaker who walk his/her talk. Brad is the epitome of awesomeness. Not only did his inspirational presentation draw rave reviews amongst our staff and faculty, but Brad's follow up personal video was such a nice touch.

Ari is a master of growth through adversity, positive mindset, and resilience. He faces difficult situations head-on using his inner resilience.

Months before COVID, a fire wiped out his family's belongings, and his business (of speaking live in front of audiences) then fell apart in the pandemic. Ari embraced these challenges and the challenges of his youth to become the thought leader he is today.

Ari believes anything is possible – using this power of manifestation to do impossible things, like producing a 2 hour movie in 2 weeks and bringing a frog back to life (ask him about it!). He brings this same unstoppable energy to your stage. His bright smile, flexibility, and easy likability is a great addition to any event.

Learning To Breath Underwater: Channeling Adaptability for the Greatest Success shows how becoming truly adaptable to difficult changes that arise in life become our greatest predictors for success. The one thing that is a constant in the world is CHANGE, and our ability (or inability) to deal with change and adapt to shifting conditions (like being able to breath underwater with SCUBA gear, or changing a dive plan because of increased risk) makes every difference in the world.

Change Management Speech

Ari provided some personal stories, motivational content, and lots of team-building activities to help our team bond during a corporate retreat. It was a perfect combination of lecture & fun, with a light-hearted tone and easy delivery style.
