I've been in business for...

five amazing years. I have helped brand flourish in all different types of industries including woman empowerment, lingerie, health & wellness, education and e-commerce.

I started my podcast because...

I wanted to heal in front of people so that others feel comfortable in knowing growth sometimes requires uncomfortable conversations, intention and forgiveness.

I am a creative who believes in community and sharing knowledge. Be the Light Blog is all about providing tools to creatives in efforts to help them maximize cost-efficient resources and tap into their potential.

I desire to motivate
others by providing resources for creatives.

My name is Maniyah Richardson. I am a twenty-something-year-old, insecure girl, born from parents who never loved each other. Sometimes I wake up and can find every imperfection on my body and in my soul, while others, I see God’s beauty running through my veins. Along the way, I’ve hurt a few people, lost a few friends, and given my worth away. I am a twenty-something-year-old girl in constant transition. And, even when I don’t know anything, I know that God isn’t done with me yet.

Sometimes life has a way of making us feel like where we are, is not where we should be.

If I can speak from my own experience for many years I’ve been hard on myself because I know that I am meant to become more than what I am now. That, for some reason God chose me to fulfill a purpose that is bigger than what I could ever imagine and what I feel I can bare.

here's my truth

But the man who made the stars took time to make me and someone as unique as you, which means you have a calling brewing inside of you that is bigger than you also. As we go through this journey please understand that sometimes we will laugh, sometimes we will cry, and sometimes a lightbulb will illuminate in our hearts but we will always choose to fight.
