I’m proud to share a powerful new episode of Black Women Amplified featuring the brilliant Jayne Allen, bestselling author of the Black Girls Must Die Exhausted trilogy.
Jayne’s journey from Harvard-trained attorney to global storyteller is a masterclass in courage, creativity, and intention. In our conversation, she opens up about her collaboration with filmmaker Malcolm D. Lee on The Best Man book series, the business of building a storytelling empire, and how she’s now pouring her wisdom into her education platform, Book Genius, to help the next generation of authors rise.
This conversation is for every Black woman ready to own her story, claim her voice, and build a legacy.
You’ll hear:
- Jayne’s path from Harvard Law to bestselling author
- The creative process behind The Best Man collaboration
- How Black Girls Must Die Exhausted became a global phenomenon
- The purpose and power behind Book Genius
- What’s next in the Jayne Allen Universe

And…
As we close out this chapter of the season, this may be the last interview of the year as I shift my focus toward building the next evolution of Black Women Amplified.
Don’t worry, the podcast isn’t going anywhere. You’ll still hear episodes in your feed, but for a while, it’ll be just me. Maybe.
I can’t wait to share what’s next. Take a moment and text the podcast episode with a few friends who love The Best Man.
Thank you for listening, for growing with me, and for being part of this incredible community of women who refuse to play small.
With gratitude,
Monica
See you soon!
