What if you know you’re capable—but you don’t feel confident yet?

In this Q&A-style episode of the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, Dr. Renée Jordan returns to a core theme from Season 1—“I did it because I can”—and answers the quiet, thoughtful questions that high-achieving women often carry but don’t always say out loud.

This episode is for you if you’re doing well on paper, staying curious, and moving forward—but still wondering:

• How did she know she could before she had proof?
• Is it okay that I don’t feel confident yet?
• What if I’m interested in more than one path?
• What if I don’t have a five-year plan?
• What happens when the path I chose doesn’t fit anymore?

Rather than offering quick fixes or pressure-filled advice, this conversation centers reflection, permission, and evidence already present in your life. Dr. Jordan shares personal stories, mindset shifts, and coaching insights to help you recognize that uncertainty doesn’t mean you’re behind—it often means you’re paying attention.

Whether you’re a student, early-career professional, or someone navigating a pivot, this episode invites you to slow down, reflect, and trust the next honest step.

In this episode of the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, we wrap up Lesson D2.1: Embracing Digital Literacies by moving from reflection into action.

I walk listeners through how to use digital literacies intentionally to design, build, and promote a meaningful project in their personal, academic, or professional life.

This episode features a real-time demonstration of how I used ChatGPT as a thinking partner (not a replacement for thinking) to develop my Social Media Marketing Plan as a professional project. I model how the same prompts can be adapted for two different target audiences to show how digital tools must be used with context, clarity, and purpose.

We also cover:

· How to generate project-specific prompts using ChatGPT

· How to search for video tutorials, blogs, and women-led resources

· How to organize tasks, set deadlines, and track progress

· How to connect with mentors and experts through professional DMs

· How to share your work and engage others without waiting for perfection

By the end of this episode, you’ll have a clear roadmap for using digital literacies as tools for liberation, not overwhelm—and a reminder that your project doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful.

Whether you’re a learner, educator, career-changer, or creative, this episode will help you turn ideas into action—one prompt, one connection, and one step at a time.

In this episode of the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, we continue our Embracing Digital Literacies (D2.1) lesson by moving from reflection to creation.

This video focuses on Part 3: Creating Your Project Plan—where digital literacy becomes actionable. You’ll learn how to take an idea you care about and turn it into a clear, doable digital project using intentional planning, research, and connection.

• How to choose digital tools that actually support your goals
• How to find and learn from Latinas, Afro-Latinas, and Black women who’ve already completed similar projects
• How digital projects can support your academic, professional, or community goals

Using real-world examples from AI literacy, academic coaching, career coaching, and social media marketing, this lesson shows how community-centered digital projects are built with intention—not overwhelm or perfectionism.

Whether you’re planning a:

• Social media marketing campaign
• Podcast or YouTube channel
