Welcome to Straight Talk Saturday (STS)

Where we say the quiet parts out loud—with love, lip gloss, and leadership clarity.

You ever wake up and think, “Which version of me is showing up today?”

Same.

But here’s the thing: They all lead. And they all tell the truth.

That’s what Straight Talk Saturday is about—showing up as your whole self, saying what needs to be said, and building a leadership culture that isn’t allergic to honesty.

Because sometimes you need a pep talk. Sometimes you need a journal prompt. And sometimes? You need someone to grab your shoulders, look you in the eye, and say:

You’re playing small and calling it kindness.

Yeah. It’s that kind of party.

Let’s get one thing clear: STS isn’t here to coddle. STS calls up. She speaks truth in love, tells it like it is, and still shows up with a soft sweater and a strong brow.

So, in honor of the official launch, allow me to introduce you to the four Lorris who might show up each week (because you never know which one you’re getting—but she’s always coming with the truth):

Red Glasses Lorri: CEO of Clarity. She doesn’t just see through your excuses—she names them. She’s giving boardroom energy with a sermon on deck. Get your pen and paper ready.

Black & White Denim Lorri: Chair of the Real Talk Committee. She’s not yelling, but she’s not sugarcoating—she’s holding court with wisdom that’s been hard-earned. Expect the kind of truth that sits with you for days.

Leopard & Camel Lorri: Soft-Spoken Assassin. The velvet hammer looks cozy, but don’t get comfortable. Her voice is low, but her insight cuts through the noise with surgical precision.

Denim Power Stance Lorri: Boots-On, No-Nonsense Coach. She’s the one who tells you to quit waiting for permission. And she’ll smile while doing it. Then ask for your to-do list. Twice.

What You Can Expect from Straight Talk Saturday:

• Leadership truths that don’t flinch
• Encouragement that doesn’t sugarcoat
• Growth prompts that hold a mirror up (lovingly… but firmly)
• The occasional sass, scripture, or side-eye
• Always real. Always rooted. Always ready.

So go ahead and subscribe, bookmark, and maybe stretch a little— Because STS is coming for your comfort zone, and she’s wearing statement earrings.
