About the Anthology

“Our Stories Belong in History” is a groundbreaking anthology that brings together the voices of three ​generations of Black and Latina U.S. women executive leaders to share their empowering, untold stories of ​overcoming insurmountable odds to achieve and sustain success.


For far too long, the narratives about our communities have centered on the hardships we've endured. “Our ​Stories Belong in History” takes back our voice to speak our truth — of the beauty we've nurtured, the ​wisdom we've gained, and the boundless potential we've cultivated through it all.


The book offers readers an intimate and inspiring portrayal of both the challenges and triumphs of women ​leaders of color in corporate environments, including proven leadership and entrepreneurship strategies ​that can serve as a vital resource for every woman aged 18 or older. From navigating the vicious cycle of ​work burnout to finding balance, liberation, fulfillment, and true purpose, these stories resonate deeply with ​women from all walks of life–underscoring the boundless potential of women to be change agents, ​community pillars, and firsts.


Every woman deserves to hear these stories, share these stories, and feel these stories because it's time we ​tell our own.

About Sawkia R Patterson

Sawkia R Patterson is an author and motivational speaker committed to serving others. She ​has spent 13 years in the healthcare industry, where she believed her purpose and passion ​for serving others were met. Her vibrant and inviting personality has always drawn people in ​and allowed her to deeply connect with people, even strangers, making her service career ​impactful and rewarding. As she thinks about what is next, Sawkia wants to transition her ​service career to helping Black women and women of color realize their dreams, walk by ​faith, and trust God's timing.


When Sawkia is not working to help healthcare heal itself, She loves to travel and has been ​to 25+ countries. She believes that traveling allows us to see the world and helps us ​become more tolerant by continuing to open ourselves to other cultures and experiences. ​Her biggest accomplishments and triumphs have been when she stepped out on faith, and ​she wants to share that message with the world. She holds 2 Masters in Business and ​Project Management with a Bachelors in Sociology. She believes that with a little faith and ​determination, you can live the life of your dreams, and she wants to show you how.
