Ep. 269: The ZD Experience with Radia Baxter

There are leaders who wait for permission… and then there are leaders who build pathways where none existed before.

This episode features Radia Baxter – visionary strategist, community advocate, CEO of Louie B. Consulting, and Democratic candidate for South Carolina House District 116.

From securing over $1 million in state funding for educational and economic opportunities, to championing restorative justice, housing initiatives, and equitable community development, Radia’s work is rooted in impact, resilience, and purpose.

Her philosophy? “Build the plane while flying it.”

And honestly, that mindset speaks to so many entrepreneurs, advocates, artists, and changemakers trying to create meaningful work in uncertain times.

We talk leadership, faith, advocacy, entrepreneurship, restorative justice, motherhood, survival, and what it truly means to create sustainable change while navigating systems not designed for everyone to thrive.

This is more than a conversation. It’s a masterclass in vision, grit, and service.
