{Fireside Chat}: Coded for Change


Hi, Reader,

You’ve felt it too, haven’t you?

Something’s shifted. The rooms you used to walk into don’t feel right. The people who once kept pace… aren’t. And your capacity for pretending nothing’s changed? Gone.

You're shedding, my friend.

And so am I.

But that's not all that's changed, Reader:

  • Episode 075 of Impact Innovators aired almost two weeks ago and that's it...for now.
  • I restructured our internal ops at Felicia Ford & Co.®
  • I accidentally deleted our Wordpress website...and it's actually not a bad thing.

Felicia Ford & Co.® has changed.

So has the room.

The pace, the philosophy, the purpose - none of it is where you left it.

This email is both notice and invitation in how we're shifting who we serve, how we serve, and how it's all rolling out. (National Black Girl Month™ isn't going anywhere).

Each of the clients working with me now are a verified G.O.A.T. The greatest of all time? Yes.

And there's a dual meaning I'll share tomorrow.

GOAT Verified™. Fires Lit. Loops Closed.

I can't talk to you about disrupting and closing loops if I don't share transparently how (and why) I'm doing it too. Here's a statement straight from my journal entry last week:

If your hands are closed, you can never receive the fullness of what's being given to you, even when you say you want "it."

If the speaks to you in the season you're in - one of growth and adjusting, I invite you to join me tomorrow for this month's Fireside Chat.

We're celebrating your shifts.

We're acknowledging how to get through and close the loop, and we're doing it together.

Reserve your space at bit.ly/disrupttheloop

Know your code.

Use your code.

Move with code.

- Felicia

Hi, Reader, Did you grow up in the era of sending and receiving cards for every occasion? Lisa Frank folders, binders, stickers and pens? Beautifully packaged invitations for a special moment to celebrate with family and friends? If you did, you know the excitement of finding an envelope in the mail with familiar handwriting. You know the joy of collecting those notes, cards and stationary for keepsakes in an album or your scrapbook. Some things have evolved, but others have taken us further...

Happy Friday, Reader, It was 2023, and there was a vision to create something specific for Change Makers like you. And while it wasn’t the first time I’d felt like I’d been given an assignment I didn’t want, it was the first time that assignment was laid out so plainly—and I immediately rejected it in my heart. I’m no stranger to hard things.But this felt different. Bigger than anything I’d ever created.I remember thinking: How is this even possible when I’m already working on a...
