ABOUT US
WHO WE ARE
The Life Currency is a community of like-minded individuals who, like you, have had to figure shit out along the way. While we’ve all had different paths, the common thread that bonds us is life has thrown us more twists, turns, and upside-down fucking rollercoasters than we ever thought possible. Together, we realized there was no one to guide us -- and no safe space to ask questions and get advice -- without being judged. With that in mind, The Life Currency was born.
WHY WE'RE HERE
One day you’re in school, and the next you have a job and realize you could go to jail for not paying taxes. Let’s face it: Adulting is hard AF. For anyone going through adult life feeling lost, confused, stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure – we’ve got you. We exist to remind you that you’re not alone. And we talk real-life shit in our own words that you can understand. Our mission: to create a safe space to make life just a little bit easier -- and inform, welcome, and educate (but never preach) to you along the way.
HOW IT WORKS
Through live events, content, and community, TLC is here to help you navigate everything from mental health, career, sexuality, and relationships, to budgeting and even becoming an entrepreneur. As a member you can expect in-depth content, advice, and resources on shit most people don’t talk about.

WE’RE STARTING REVOLUTIONS, SHIFTING CULTURAL NORMS, FLIPPING THE ENTIRE SCRIPT”
I didn’t set out to be an entrepreneur, but after almost a decade of leadership experience at the top media companies in the world (we’re talkin’ MTV, iHeart Media, Instyle, and ESSENCE Magazine) I realized that in order to see the impactful change I wanted, I’d have to build my own bridges. And that’s just the beginning….
