This is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

I am beyond honored and deeply grateful to share this incredible milestone!

I have been named Woman of the Year in the UK by Hoinser Media, and I am proudly featured on the cover of Hoinser International Magazine! 🌍✨

To be recognized on a global platform for the work I am so passionate about is truly humbling. This journey has been built on faith, resilience, purpose, and a commitment to making an impact—and this moment reflects that.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, believed in, and walked alongside me on this journey. This recognition is not just for me—it’s for every life touched, every story shared, and every vision brought to life.

The work continues… and this is only the beginning. 💫

This week on Real Talk with Iris, I’m stepping into my role as a new host on LA Talk Radio and sitting down with an incredible guest, Bruce George.

Bruce is the Founder of the GENIUS is COMMON™ Movement and Co-Founder of HBO’s Def Poetry Jam. He’s a visionary, entrepreneur, activist, and recipient of the President’s Lifetime Achievement Award (Biden, 2024).

In this powerful conversation, we’ll talk about entrepreneurship, purpose, and what it really means when we say “genius is common.” Bruce shares his journey, his mindset, and how everyday people can tap into their own greatness.

This is more than a conversation. It’s about shifting how we see ourselves and what’s possible.

Join us for real talk, real insight, and real inspiration.
