In this powerful and heartfelt episode, we sit down with Ms. Hollowell — a dynamic leader, educator, minister, and founder of the Black Coal and Roses Society Young Ladies Mentoring Program. Once a teen mom walking the halls of Paducah Tilghman High School, she now leads initiatives to empower and uplift the next generation. She shares her deeply personal story of teenage pregnancy, overcoming adversity, and transforming pain into purpose. From navigating motherhood in public housing to becoming the first Chief Equity Officer of Paducah Public Schools, Ms. Hollowell is living proof that your starting point doesn't define your destiny. We dive into her nonprofit’s mission to mentor and inspire young women, the importance of representation in education, and the power of resilience. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration, guidance, and a reminder that greatness can grow from the most unlikely places.
