KEONA TALANA
My journey, my voice, and the heart behind it all.
BIO.
I'm Keona Talana — a woman who knows what it means to rebuild. From bankruptcy and divorce to launching a podcast, a nonprofit, and three books, I’ve learned that every pause is a setup for purpose.
There was a time I felt like I lost everything — my confidence, my stability, my identity. I remember lying on the floor in silence, unsure what to pray, but knowing something had to change. I didn’t rise overnight. I rose one small decision at a time. And that’s the heartbeat of what I teach now — not perfection, but permission to begin again.
As a speaker, coach, tech professional, and mother of four, I create spaces that help people remember who they are and give them tools to rise into the next version of themselves. I believe in God-sized vision, emotional safety, and the radical power of showing up as you.
