Today was our biggest staff onboarding day in the history of WORTHI 🎉 Usually we have one person starting at a time, but today, we are welcoming FIVE NEW PEOPLE IN ONE DAY!! I'm trying really hard not to get super emotional about it, but y'all, I am so proud of my leaders Bree Jones and Eddie Rizzo for hiring truly next-level talent, and major shoutout to Trisha Nicolas for her recruiting and HR skills. Welcome to the team, have the best first day! - Ella Mokamba - Simone Smith - Alexa Romero - Inez Whitt - Antoinette Manigoult

Schedule that email for Monday.

So excited about ESSENCE Fest this year! Why? Because I’m not going! This isn’t a dig at ESSENCE Fest by any stretch of the imagination. They put on an incredible festival year over year. This is me celebrating the fact that WORTHI will be there for our clients at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios, Nextdoor and The Walt Disney Company and we’re at a place where I don’t actually have to go to all the things myself. We have an incredible, growing team that I trust and feel confident can handle anything thrown at them with strategy and grace, and I can support them from afar. Growth is scary, yes, but it has its benefits. #WorthiWork

Growth is scary. It's exciting, don't get me wrong, and I'm so fortunate and blessed to see WORTHI grow the way it is, but I'd be lying if I said it was easy. With every exciting new business win that allows us to hire more incredibly talented people, I freak TF out inside because now I take responsibility for their livelihoods. Our business is super healthy and strong and all the numbers say YES, but that doesn't take away from the fact that it's still terrifying to grow. I've started to force myself to get comfortable with the uncomfortable, mostly as a survival tactic because I spend so much time in discomfort that if I chose to do anything else I'd likely never sleep. I've also tried to trust the process more, and make good decisions after good decisions, and surrender to the fact that I'm doing exactly what I'm supposed to be doing... I'm a work in progress y'all 😂

So proud of my friend Sean Flynn. Hands down one of the top sports marketing execs in the business, and also one of the most genuinely GOOD guys you'll ever meet. Andy Pray, you hired the very best. Can't wait to see what y'all build!

Sat down with the incomparable Issa Rae this week at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity to talk about the rise of microstudios, the next generation of creatives, and how studios who are holding on to the past are the ones that are going to get left behind. Such a riveting conversation, and was deeply honored to be a part of it with this next level group of innovative changemakers: Avery Akkineni (CMO, VaynerX), Melody Hildebrandt (CTO, Fox Corporation), Nicole Parlapiano (CMO, Tubi) and of course Issa Rae (CEO, HOORAE) #CannesLions #WorthiWork

When I named this panel: “Multicultural Can’t Come To The Phone Right Now, She’s Dead”, I knew we were gonna have a spicy conversation 🌶️ This amazing group certainly brought the heat, experience, and perhaps most importantly: data-backed FACTS! Thank you to Michelle Wong, Lela Coffey, Lola Bakare and Edgar Hernandez for showing out on the Tubi stage at Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity this week. Truly believe this audience left with actionable takeaways to shift thinking inside their organizations, and make positive changes to grow their business with multicultural audiences🙏🏾 #CannesLions #WorthiWork
