    The founder

    Bianca B. King

    Founder, Pretty Damn Ambitious™
    President & Creative Director, Seven5 Seven3 Marketing Group
    Host, Joyful Ambition™ Podcast
    Contributing Writer: Forbes, Entrepreneur, Fast Company, SUCCESS Magazine

    She left home at 13 with nothing, and by 30 she was closing $100 million office buildings as the only Black woman in rooms that were never designed for her. Employee of the Year, twice. Deal of the Year. Part of a team that moved $1.4 billion in commercial real estate transactions before she walked away from all of it in 2008, seven months into her marriage, with $700, a laptop, and a round-trip ticket to Austin where she landed her first five-figure contract in the middle of the Great Recession.

    That company, Seven5 Seven3 Marketing Group, is still running eighteen years later. Over $280 million in client revenue. A 95% client retention rate with relationships spanning 15 years across regulated industries that do not tolerate mediocrity: law firms, financial services, healthcare, oil and gas. She writes for Forbes, Entrepreneur, Fast Company, and SUCCESS Magazine under her own name, not as a subject but as a voice. She has served on the Texas Wall Street Women board for nearly a decade, speaks on stages internationally, and has been married for 18 years to the man who watched her build every bit of it.

    The turn

    And then she built Pretty Damn Ambitious.

    In 2019, after over a decade of building, she asked herself a question she could not stop hearing: is this all there is? The numbers were growing and the business was thriving and she was quietly carrying a weight that success was supposed to have solved by now. The pandemic pause made her stop long enough to see it clearly. She had spent years informally mentoring brilliant women who were completely stuck, not from lack of talent, but from lack of the right room. Women making every decision alone at 2 AM, women who had tried the coaches and the courses and the masterminds and were still carrying all of it by themselves.

    Why PDA exists

    The room she needed at 35 did not exist. So she built it.

    She launched PDA in February 2022 and has not stopped since: four annual Level Up Summits, a collective of 50 women per quarter spanning the globe, a proprietary intelligence suite including the Elevation Assessment, the Ambition Axis, the Profitable Pricing Formula, and the Business Stability Diagnostic, and a philosophy called Joyful Ambition that she did not invent in a classroom but earned in the hardest seasons of her life by choosing joy when it would have been easier to choose hustle.

    Her first question when you walk into the room is not about your revenue. It is about your life. Because she learned the hard way that a business that costs you your life is not a business worth building. That is who she is, that is why PDA exists, and that is why the room she built is different from anything else in this industry.

    “I have been in PDA since it was just an idea. And to see you put so much intention and effort into creating this space and place for us is just moving to me all the time.”
