On this episode of More Than A Title, hosts Jarrett, Nadege and Chadeo sit down with Collette V. Smith — trailblazer, speaker, and the NFL’s first Black female coach. As the Founder and President of Believe N You, Inc., Collette is on a mission to empower women and youth to own their power, rewrite their narratives, and lead with purpose. From breaking barriers on the sidelines of the New York Jets to inspiring thousands through her powerful mentorship and advocacy work, Collette’s journey is one of resilience, courage, and transformation. We dive into her experience navigating male-dominated spaces, her philosophy on leadership through authenticity, and how faith, self-belief, and service have shaped her path as a changemaker. This one’s all about breaking ceilings, building confidence, and believing in yourself—no matter where you start.
