A Note from Alana
I started Lipscomb Programming, LLC with one goal in mind: to create spaces where leadership feels accessible, inclusive, and rooted in lived experience. As a woman of color, a mother, and a nonprofit leader, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it is when people feel seen, supported, and equipped to lead in their communities.
This work is deeply personal to me. Every workshop I design, every program I launch, and every person I connect with is part of a bigger vision—one where leadership looks like all of us.
Thank you for being part of this journey. I’m so glad you’re here.
