Profile Information

In 100 words or less tell us how you are a leader
When I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I didn't hide my bald head. I put on a brave face and wrote a detailed memoir for young women battling breast cancer because there were few resources available for young Black women when I was searching for books. I even was a guest on community television shows bald!
Professionally, I am the CEO of Crystal Clear Communications-a Houston based award-winning public relations firm and author of "Caramel and Cream" and "Saltwater Taffy and Red High Heels: My Journey through Breast Cancer." You may have seen me on the Oprah show last fall!
I am a leader because I am not afraid of a challenge.

Great to hear! I am so glad for your continued health! If you do not mind me asking do you take anything with ganoderma in it...I am asking only because my mother has found a tea with some great medicinal properties including its use internationally to treat cancer, and we know others who take it. We have cancer in our family so I try to keep up on any new treatments and herbs that are used. How are things on the professional front?

As for me, I have finally launched my non profit, NaturalEarth and we are preparing our social initiative, capital campaign, and new website with the help of some wonderful friends. God willing it will all pull together soon! I have not been on the WHP in a while, but Elizabeth brought me back in with her wonderful poem. This organization has such a great potential, but it is easy to get sidetracked in life!

Precious TWHP Sister:
Come back, come out where ever you are,
The White House Project is a forum for women leaders and stars.
There is plenty of social media but none quite like this,
A special place for women to edify, protest, lament or share in bliss.
Thinking of you all especially during my prayers today.
So I am taking a proactive moment to send blessings your way,
Life zips by quickly and exceedingly fast,
I am not quite sure if I will be here tomorrow or if my ailing heart will last.
I don’t want another moment to pass without saying to you,
How appreciative I am --thank you for being who you are--- and for all you do!
You are incredible women of courageous and noble deeds,
You have nurtured many souls and planted invaluable life-changing seeds.
May your life be anointed with abundance and happiness,
I am sending you all my love, special encouragement and my very best.
Always & Forever
Elizabeth Asahi Sato, Women Rule 2008!

Thank you for inviting me into your circle! I admire you from afar and pray that every young girl and individual that is led to the road of cancer find the path to your courage and inspiring words. Take care and I will be in touch consistently.

Hello Crystal,

Your perseverance and strength inspires me to have characteristics of a young woman such as yourself. As an up and coming young professional I look forward to networking with professionals such as you. I commend you on the courage you have. Saltwater Taffy and Red High Heels is on my list of books to read!!!:)
