Zakia Blain is the founder and CEO of FBF Body, a lifestyle brand that helps women embrace themselves and their bodies, exactly as they are. Under her leadership, the brand stands out for its commitment to serving and representing a consumer base that is often overlooked in the active wear marketplace. After a life-altering diagnosis of a brain disorder, Zakia decided to make some drastic changes to her health and wellness routines, which led to the start of the FBF lifestyle. She used her passion for learning to not only build this multi-million dollar venture from scratch, but also model for other women that their dreams are within reach, too. Backed by a thriving community of nearly 200,000 members across social media platforms, she and the brand have received national recognition on Good Morning America, The View, Forbes, Black Enterprise, Essence, and Blavity.
