Episode Description
If you fly the friendly skies, often times the pilots are men. However over the years the number of women pilots are increasing. But did you know that less than 1 percent of female pilots are African American in the United States? Well on this week's episode of The Movement we have a member of this distinguished club. Nia I Wordlaw is a commercial pilot of over twenty years. She has been featured by many magazines and honored by PBS American Masters as one of 15 trailblazing women. We will talk to Nia about her journey on the aviation field. Also The Movement Nia is starting as an African American Woman.

The Movement is about sharing histories to set up a bright future for everyone.
We share the ups and downs
We share the pitfalls
We share the victories
We share what is to come
Our stories connect the human spirit.
Our guests will share what they’ve been through. They will share how they’ve overcome the roadblocks of life to become the successes they are today.

I am a Speaker, Author, Life Coach, and Solopreneur. I began speaking to support groups late in 2016 in Chicago.
In 2017 my speaking engagements took me to other cities in the United States. In August 2017, I published my first book Your Motivational Manual Volume 1. Volume 2 is due in April 2018. My third book entitled, “If This Idiot Can Do It So Can You”, is due out later in 2018.
Due to the launch of the book, I started taking on life coaching students. A few of them also had been following me on social media for my daily “My Motivational Minute” videos. Some of my students wanted me to help them reset their mindsets after reading my book and seeing my online videos. After overwhelming feedback from my followers, I am now hosting THE MOVEMENT to motivate, uplift and inspire listeners internationally.
I found my voice by voluntarily teaching music to students for over 21 years. It was one of the special moments of my life because I watched the empowerment of my students from the ages of 5-17 take hold of their lives.
