My guest speaker Creative Innovator/Author Brittney Y.S.L LeBlue is a South Central native and is no stranger to the many experiences that being born and raised in the inner city of LA has to offer. Deciding that right after high school she wanted to see more, she moved to the Bay Area to attend Cal State East Bay.
Becoming a mother at age 19 did not stop Brittney from pursuing her education. She enrolled in Community College and worked part time while independently raising her 1st son.
Fast forward 13 years later Brittney is now a mother of two wonderful boys Khalil who is 13 and Amir who is 8 and has earn a B.A in Psychology & Masters in Educational Technology, started her own custom jewelry business and is currently a self-published author.
Through her journey she has developed a passion to support college students who are also parents like herself. She is in the process of starting a non-profit called The Parent Corner which has a dedicated mission to support, inspire and cultivate a sense of community by promoting Educational Success.
The purpose is to empower parents to further their education & unite families under the Umbrella of Knowledge. She strives to connect Student-Parents to resources that will increase Academic Success, promote Family Bonding and improve Self-care. At her core, Brittney is still just a kid at heart trying to make her LA dreams come true. We learn about all this and more on “Behind The Real”.
