What are the future plans of Mercedes Jackson in expanding her influence in media and events?

I don’t have an official public roadmap for Mercedes Jackson’s next moves, so I want to be transparent about that. But based on what I’ve already built and shared, I can tell you the direction I’m clearly leaning into.

I’ve been a media personality and host for years, and I already teach “The Building Block Of Becoming a Media Correspondent,” plus share behind-the-scenes of my life in media. That points to expanding my influence in two main ways:

• Growing my role as a host and moderator for bigger conferences, roadshows, and high-profile events (like tech, entertainment, and culture-focused stages).
• Scaling education and mentoring for aspiring media correspondents and hosts through digital products, subscriptions, and community-based experiences.

I also see more curated events and branded experiences, similar to my Media Honors Brunch, that bring media pros together while I’m in my element hosting and connecting people.

Is there a specific area you’re most curious about—hosting, teaching, or live events?
