From the desk of Dr. Frantonia PollinsMonday, September 8, 2025Greetings Reader,I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately, not just about business strategy, but about capacity. About what it really means to hold space for grief and growth, purpose and rest, legacy and letting go. The truth is, this summer forced me into a different rhythm. One that I didn’t plan, but desperately needed. And as painful as it was to say goodbye to my brother, that sacred pause gave me something I could never...

From the desk of Dr. Frantonia PollinsWednesday, September 3, 2025Greetings Reader, Something about this trend feels off Everywhere I look, people are hyping up The Great Lock In of 2025, a viral trend that, from September 1 through December 31, everyone’s supposed to “lock in” and crush the same goals they set back in January. On the surface, it sounds good. Commit. Focus. Finish strong. But let’s be real, you’ve seen this movie. It reeks of the same old performative hustle cult so many...

From the desk of Dr. Frantonia PollinsMonday, August 18, 2025Greetings Reader,Before I jump into what I really need to say, let me set the scene, because whether you watched the whole thing live, caught the recaps on social media, or have no idea what I’m talking about, this message is for you. Over the weekend, a well-known internet marketer named Alex Hormozi hosted what some are calling “the most brilliant online event of the year.” Big lights. Big numbers. Big promises.

From the desk of Dr. Frantonia PollinsFriday, July 25, 2025Greetings Reader,WHEW!! Let me take a deep breath, cause I've got something to say: It's only July and this year has been a LOT! Remember how I told you back in January that 2025, a Universal 9 Year, was going to be an unapologetic year of endings, closures, and completions? Well Lord knows I’ve felt every inch of that disruptive energy. I came into this year with fire in my belly, a ton of plans in my journal, and a sacred knowing...

From the desk of Dr. Frantonia PollinsTuesday, June 17, 2025Greetings Reader,I'm about to say the quiet part out loud...High-achieving women are silently falling apart… behind beautifully branded businesses and perfectly curated launches. They’re burned out. Resentful. Uninspired. And trapped in cycles of hyper-productivity, under-earning, and over-functioning. And before you think I’m pointing fingers—no, love. I’m telling on us. Because I’ve been her, too. In my last email, I pulled back...

From the desk of Dr. Frantonia PollinsTuesday, June 10, 2025Greetings Reader,There’s something sacred about reaching that moment when the success, the structure, the image you’ve built… just isn’t enough anymore. Not because you’ve failed, but because you’ve evolved. And lately, I’ve found myself standing in that space. The in-between. The unraveling. The rising. Not with shame, but with reverence. Because the truth is: I’m no longer willing to lead from exhaustion, prove through perfection,...

From the desk of Dr. Frantonia PollinsSunday, May 11, 2025Greetings Reader,Let me take you on a journey with me for a moment… It starts with the soft cry of a newborn—a sound so small and yet so mighty, it rearranges your entire life in an instant. Suddenly, you're cradling a life in your arms and wondering, How will I keep this little soul alive, safe, and whole? You’re tired. You’re tender. You’re stretched so far beyond yourself; you’re not sure where you end and they begin. And yet......
