more about our founder

Shaté L. Hayes

I left a VP role to document the stories no one else is telling.

I spent 12 years as a professional dancer/choreographer until I outgrew it. I loved was helping dancers launch their careers, so I went into workforce development full-time. Scaled from career coach to Senior Director, led global teams, served thousands of learners. I loved that work, too.

But there was always a quiet voice: You're supposed to be a producer. I ignored it. I couldn't see the path forward. How do you leave salary, insurance, and stability for something you can't explain? So I suppressed it. Until I couldn't anymore. Then, I left to build The Purpose Post.

After supporting thousands of professionals, I know what keeps people stuck: money, insurance, caregiving, fear. And I know what they need: real examples of people who were scared like them and found a way anyway. That's what we do. We document the actual paths - the conversations, timelines, doubt, courage. The parts other stories skip. Because I needed those examples, too.

Documentary producer. Former professional dancer. Spelman grad. Someone who suppressed her dreams because she couldn't see the way forward. This is my story. I'm here to help you see yours.
