Dr. Jamila T. Davis is a renowned motivational speaker, dedicated community activist, accomplished author, esteemed academic professional, and successful serial entrepreneur. With a passion for empowering individuals of all ages, she has become a beacon of hope and resilience despite facing a tragic turn of events after achieving self-made, multi-millionaire status at the young age of 25. In 2008, Dr. Davis was sentenced to 12 1/2 years for bank fraud, an experience that catalyzed her transformative journey of inner healing and restoration. From behind bars, she diligently documented her findings and developed a groundbreaking self-help curriculum, "The Voices of Consequences Enrichment Series," specifically tailored to empower incarcerated women. This curriculum aims to facilitate healing, help individuals recognize their untapped potential, and reignite their dreams. Notably, in January 2023, this work was adopted by the Bureau of Prisons as an approved program for time credit for incarcerated women through the First Step Act. While in prison, Dr. Davis pursued higher education and earned numerous college degrees. Most notably, in June 2021, she obtained her Doctor of Philosophy degree from Newburgh Seminary, focusing her research on life coaching as a powerful tool to dismantle the trauma-to-prison pipeline. Additionally, Dr. Davis holds the position of Community Practitioner in Residence at Seton Hall University and is a Research Fellow at the Yale School of Public Health, contributing to the field of social and public health research.

She has also created a framework for the coalition by leading by example. Additionally, she is the Founder of Black Women’s Lives Matter, the co-founder of WomenOverIncarcerated, and the co-founder of Be the Changemakers, organizations that lend voice to others and empower people worldwide to be their greater selves. As a social entrepreneur, Dr. Davis is the CEO of Pink Passion Apparel, a clothing line that promotes healthy, inspirational imaging for Black women. To date, this company has grossed over a million dollars in sales, with proceeds being used to fund her community work.
