Inspiring women to dare to dream big dreams

Embracing Only introduces ordinary women who have defied the odds as they navigated their professional careers as 'an ONLY'. The diverse guests interviewed lean into their learnings, lived experiences and expertise from their global experiences to create a show that will engage, inform, empower and provide actionable ways in which the listeners can see the change they seek to rise and shine in their professional space as 'An Only'.

Women and particularly women of color are constantly bombarded with societal and systemic hurdles that they face professionally with no balance in solutions. News, media and coaching tends to focus on our differences and the obstacles but do not provide thought provoking solutions to help people regain control of their lives and find direction. This show seeks to provide a community for women to share their lived experiences and not feel alone in their journey to claim their power and purpose in the communities they seek to serve, transform and impact. Embracing Only is a podcast where we seek to empower women with stories of other women who have defied the odds and thrive in spite of the hurdles presented. Our mission is to inspire women to align with their highest selves and dare to dream big dreams. When women win, we all win!

Embracing Only was formerly The Nine Oh Six Podcast. Host and producer Archita Fritz’s own journey of evolution since the launch of The Nine Oh Six with dear friend Meha Chiraya in 2019 is captured in the evolution to Embracing Only. Olivia Cream who originally joined as a guest co-host in many ways helped shape the next evolution of The Nine Oh Six. This new journey promises to continue to capture the stories of the extraordinary women in our communities with a focus on how they thrive against all odds.

Thank you for embracing this journey and for listening in!
