Today we’d like to introduce you to Cicely Adri’anna Frazier.
Hi Cicely, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I am originally from Jackson, Mississippi. However, I always knew that I would one day find my way to Texas. When the opportunity presented itself over 11 years ago, I took the leap of faith. The journey has been one of the best decisions that I could have made to positively change the trajectory of my life.
I am a transformational speaker, author, and certified life coach who lives by the motto ” Know thyself & show up in the world – boldly!”. My mission is to be the triumphant voice of the “strong friend” while empowering women and youth to take actionable steps to transform their lives professionally and personally. I am fueled by illuminating paths of support for all as a mental health warrior, domestic violence survivor, and socio-economic equality advocate.
In 2019, I founded CZB Innovations, LLC. A team dedicated to equipping change agents and leaders with the resources they need to grow with confidence and purpose. I have over 17 years of experience working with the most vulnerable populations and nonprofit agencies. My engagement extends across a diverse collection of professional service organizations, advisory boards, and community endeavors.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The journey has not always been smooth. Like many college graduates, I found myself navigating the new world of establishing creditable work experience in a new state with very few connections and resources. Volunteering and expanding my skills proved to be the most useful advice I was given. I have never been motivated by titles. I was very interested building a network, acquiring skills that would be transferable and aligned with my natural strengths. As an author and professional, I also struggled carving out time for self-care. I have learned that prioritizing self-care positioned me to a more productive and creative leader.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am the founder of CZB Innovations LLC. It is here that aspiring leaders and young change agents are armed with the personal development resources needed to pursue careers and entrepreneurship.

My brand is also invested on giving back to the community. I have been able to collaborate with top-tier service organization and volunteers to spread awareness and provide resources within the community.
I believe that volunteering and seeking mentorship is essential to identifying strengths and improving in areas of inexperience. Temporary agencies can also provide compensation and valuable exposure. The global workforce was forced to pivot in the pandemic, we want to offer the proven strategies and interactive seminars to pivot successfully and strengthen existing teams. At CZB Innovations, we also create opportunities for our youth and college outreach participants to get involved in their community early beyond the mandatory school requirement or holiday opportunities.
