If you thought it was impossible to continue your graduate studies if you’re a single mother or mother in general, you might want to tune in to hear how this superwoman extraordinaire attained her masters and began her Ph.D. all the while balancing the world on her shoulders. 

This connector, caregiver, people professional and volunteer is Allanté’s mom, Lisa Whitmore- Davis, and the very first guest to join the Blk+ In Grad School family.  A resource on how to navigate Grad School as a full-time mother, full-time employee and full-time caregiver, Mama Lisa discusses “the non-traditional” graduate school process.

Sharing tidbits on how to balance school, work, and personal demands, Mama Lisa keeps it real for all the busy moms taking the time to work on themselves in-between working on/for everyone else. Having decided to go back to school to get masters in the middle of her career with young Allanté in tow, Mama Lisa reminds us that anything is possible. 

Today’s episode is nothing short of inspirational, so listen carefully as Mama Lisa drops some gems.
