On this episode, I discuss my understanding of an “Independent Woman” and what it takes to be one. After attending an Essence + Northwestern Mutual speaking event featuring Myleik Teele and a Financial Advisor from Northwestern, I realized how independent I have become in the last few weeks and months since starting to the podcast. Listen to hear me discuss my independence formula!

After a short hiatus, Kiri Keys Podcast is back! After losing my voice for a week or so and enjoying the last days of summer, I decided to take a break before the fall starts. I GOT THE KEYS!!! The keys of my life, that is. On this episode, I talk about the life keys that I'm using right now to navigate through this phase of my life. I discuss the three "keys" I live my life by and incorporated into my everyday life. These Kiri Keys have allowed me to learn more about myself and boosted my confidence as I have matured. Kiri's Keys of Life: 1. Meet people where they are at 2. Know when to walk away & do it 3. Feel how you feel Check it out and let me know what life keys have you adopted into your life lately. *The sound quality of this podcast is not as great as my others, I apologize in advance & working to make it better.
