Amber Bryant

Married to a former NFL player Fernando Bryant, Amber Bryant knows how to score touchdowns as the Volunteer Coordinator of the local Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) in her community. Due to her NFL connections, Amber is well known in Atlanta’s social scene and can make one phone call to raise thousands of dollars. Although she currently doesn’t have a child at local elementary school, Amber has been designated an honorary member due to her commitment for the school and her connections to wealthy donors. Her three-year-old daughter Griffin will eventually attend the school, but always the go-getter, Amber is laying the groundwork to create her own legacy at the PTO. In addition to her volunteer work, she is also a Montessori elementary school teacher and has a 13-year-old stepson, Fernando II, and 15-year-old nephew, Austin, that reside with her and her husband. She is preparing to launch a new brand for busy mommies called Stiletto Mom.

Christina Johnson/ BFLY Coaching

It has often been said that whatever doesn’t kill us makes us stronger. If that is true, Christina Johnson has superhuman strength. A teen mom born to a teenage mother, Johnson refused to be a statistic. As one of the stars of VH1’s “Atlanta Exes”, The visionary mogul is the co-founder of beauty brand Butterfly EFX alongside celebrity makeup artist Toni Acey. Johnson and Acey leveraged their affinity for fashion and style by developing a highly pigmented palette of lipsticks and lip-glosses that are not only richly saturated in color, but also beautifully packaged.

Having overcome years of setbacks and battles, Johnson feels that she is finally living her purpose and what some may consider the new American dream. As a devoted mother, businesswoman, spiritual guru and philanthropist. She is also the founder of BFLY Coaching that will produce its first event, Amazing Me Amazing Life Event.

 

Tandice Jean Baptiste/MySkinMyStory

Tandice Jean Baptiste is an educator with over ten years of professional experience. She holds Bachelor of Science in elementary education from Winston-Salem State University and earned a Master of Education in early childhood from Kennesaw State University in 2010. It was Tandice’s introduction to the color complex at an early age that increased her sensitivity to the topic that has plagued African Americans throughout history. Furthermore, while teaching, she also dedicated her time as a mentor and a role model for several girls of color. It was the experience as a mentor that reminded her of the impact the color complex has had on women of color. Afterwards, a flame was ignited, and since Tandice has dedicated her time and effort towards eliminating the color complex and increasing self awareness and acceptance.

Tandice’s goal is to create a support system for the beautiful brown girls who have been subjected to society’s limited perception of beauty. MySkinMyStory is her platform to celebrate women of color and to provide them with the voice and the recognition they deserve. She strives to encourage young women of color to break the harsh generational cycle of stereotypes, prejudices, and labels based on the hue of one’s complexion. Tandice hopes that MySkinMyStory will not only encourage women of color to speak out about the color complex but will also empower them to love their skin and to celebrate their beauty.
