#18: In this solo episode, Keri pulls back the curtain on how The Kickback with Keri came to life; from a spontaneous newsletter idea to a full platform amplifying founders, creatives, and change-makers who are building something bigger than themselves.

What started as a passion project became a space for connection, culture, and community. Keri opens up about her pivot from a career in fashion styling to launching a media platform that celebrates Black-owned brands, spotlights purpose-driven entrepreneurs, and creates space for joy, representation, and progress.

Tune in to hear:

  • The real story behind The Kickback — and why community building matters now more than ever
  • How Keri turned curiosity into a thriving brand in three years
  • Why amplifying Black voices and small businesses is a form of economic empowerment
  • The power of building platforms rooted in purpose, not pressure

Whether you’re a founder, creative, or someone finding your next chapter, this episode will remind you that sometimes the best things are built by accident and sustained by community.
