In this journal we distill our answers to those questions, and the many others raised by Slay in Your Lane, into practical ways to help you create a better and more visible future for yourself. With Slay in Your Lane Elizabeth Uviebinené and Yomi Adegoke started a national conversation. Now they want you to join them in making changes. Packed full of practical exercises, questionnaires, and actionable tips, Slay in Your Lane: The Audio Journal will help you get ahead in everything from relationships to starting a successful side hustle, building your personal brand, knowing your worth at work, finances, self-care, and health. It will give you the tools and the confidence to be in the driving seat of your life and not just a passenger: showing you exactly how to slay in your own lane.

Slay in Your Lane Presents: Loud Black Girls features essays from the diverse voices of more than 20 established and emerging Black British writers. In Loud Black Girls, the authors of Slay in Your Lane: The Black Girl Bible, Yomi Adegoke and Elizabeth Uviebinené, ask Black British female writers to focus on what happens next? What does the future hold in the uncertain post-Brexit world of Donald Trump and the rise of the far right, where there is also more opportunity for Black women to thrive than there has ever been before? Despite young Black women reading more than any other ethnic group in the UK, they are still largely invisible as published authors. Loud Black Girls seeks to change that by giving Black women a voice and a platform. Listeners can expect frank, funny and fearless contributions about what matters to Black women today, from a range of prominent voices.
