Diaries: From the Housing Projects to Power

~ My code name is Mia Z. Edwards. Welcome to Diaries: From the Housing Projects to Power—a memoir told through daily audio episodes that inspire, uplift, and celebrate resilience. I also write fiction and love musings. It’s therapeutic! From the cozy chaos of housing projects to working with high-level government officials—who would've guessed? Picture me: a latte-fueled secretary, armed with a notepad, coordinating overseas travel, welcoming dignitaries, and managing motorcade chaos. One moment I’m filing secret documents like a stealthy ninja, the next, I’m jet-setting on covert missions. That’s when I became Special Agent Mia Z—handling drama, diplomacy, and danger with pearls and precision. Don’t worry—I won’t spill any classified secrets, just the hilariously weird moments that made my job unforgettable. Then—WHAM! A package explodes. A friend turns foe. Police handcuffs. Trauma. And finally, refuge in the church. Be sure to subscribe to keep up with the mayhem. Daily. No Sundays.
