Wow — reading this brought everything full circle for me. The Black Business Card Party truly poured into me last year, and I’m so grateful for the connections, clarity, and confidence that helped shape Miles Ahead into what it is today.
I’m honored to return this year as an emcee alongside my friend Tony Betton Jr News to help create that same energy for others. Thank you to the BBCP team for continuing to build spaces where purpose and opportunity collide! ✨

From anchoring the news to navigating new chapters, I sat down with Kayla Maley to talk about her surprising path before TV, the choice to step away from the newsroom, and what life looks like now as a mom of three.
Oh—and I asked the question everyone’s been wondering… Would she ever return to the news? Her answer might surprise you.

Mile Marker Nine 🕯️
If you’ve ever strolled through the YLNI Farmers Market on Barr Street, chances are you’ve seen Derek Taylor of Simple Nature Candles. Not only do his candles smell incredible (I’ve got one burning), but Derek’s story is even more powerful. From giving back to his community to catching national attention, his journey is one you’ll want to hear.
