There’s a moment when we’re taught to quiet ourselves. Maybe someone told you that you were too much. Maybe your accent made you feel like your voice didn’t belong. Maybe something happened that made staying quiet feel safer than speaking up.
Jam Gamble knows what it means to have your voice taken from you. In 2021, she experienced a hate crime. Weeks later, she forgot to cancel a webinar with Shopify – and got on the call anyway, mid-anxiety attack, and told them exactly what was happening. A year after that, she delivered a keynote to 180 pharmaceutical sales executives, broke down on stage, and said: “Speaking about this is how I reclaim what was stolen from me.”
Jam is the CEO of Slay The Mic, an award-winning media personality, and one of the clearest voices on what it actually means to reclaim your voice – not as a performance, but as an act of resistance.
In this episode, we talk about the “Who Is Your Kanye” framework, why your accent is flavor not a flaw, and what it looks like to acknowledge the elephant in the room before it tramples you.
Someone out there is waiting for you to go first.
