Hi there!

I'm Layla, the voice behind CorporateLayla.
I started this blog to share my journey as a Black, Muslim, hijabi woman navigating the corporate world. As a visible minority and an introvert, I know what it feels like to not quite to fit the traditional mold. But I’ve also learned that success doesn’t require changing who you are; it comes from embracing your uniqueness and building confidence in your own way.

On this blog, I share career tips, productivity hacks, and personal growth lessons I’ve learned along the way. I also love talking about workwear and home office setups, because I truly believe both your style and your space can boost your confidence, focus, and creativity.

My goal is simple: to to empower others , to grow in their careers without compromising who they are.. Whether you’re looking for practical career advice, motivation to push through challenges, or inspiration for creating a minimalist home office, you’ll find it here.

If you’ve ever felt overlooked, too quiet, or like you don’t fit the “corporate mold,” this space is for you.
