  • So Good!!

    Been listening for years. Mandi is handling solo hosting with great round tables and continues to bring amazing guests. I also love how vulnerable she is in motherhood season. Keeping it real is how we support each other.

  • Love Brown Ambition 💗

    I’ve been listening to Brown Ambition since 2020, and it’s helped me grow so much! Every episode has something new for me to learn- Mandi does such a great job of utilizing personal experiences to make career and finance topics feel real and applicable (and I love her guests at the BA Roundtable too!). Can’t wait to see how the show continues to evolve!!
