About this listen

This week, we’re joined by Antionette Fowlkes, a Birmingham, Alabama native whose journey is all about embracing transition, trusting the process, and growing beyond your comfort zone. Antionette takes us through her path from Alabama to Alabama A&M for undergrad, then making a major leap to Iowa State for graduate school. We talk about what it really means to transition, not just to college, but across regions and cultures, and how those experiences shaped her move into the workforce after grad school. She also shares insight from her current role in the U.S. Navy Reserves, and how service, discipline, and adaptability have influenced her approach to learning, leadership, and growth. In this conversation, Antionette breaks down the power of learning by doing, why humility in the workplace is essential, and how to balance that humility with the confidence to add real value. She reflects on what it means to truly trust the process - showing up, taking risks, and pushing yourself beyond what feels comfortable.
