Welcome to How I Got Here with Dreena Whitfield. In today's episode, we explore the journey of Fatou Barry, founder of the PR Girl Manifesto and co-founder of Hold the Press. Barry's mission is to create a safe space for communications professionals, especially young black women struggling with staying in the PR industry. She believes in the importance of representation and diversity in the field, and her advocacy group, Hold the Press, is committed to improving just that.

Barry's story is about perseverance and finding her happy medium in the communications department. Working in the communication space while an undergrad, Barry quickly learned the value of working independently and being an all-hands-on-deck team player. This eventually led to her founding the PR Girl Manifesto, which has grown to over 40,000 followers.

If you want to join a community of communications professionals, look no further than the PR Girl Manifesto's website.

So tune in, listen to Barry's inspiring journey, and learn the importance of representation, diversity, and advocacy in the PR industry.
