Aretha Rodney is a gem in the spoken word poetry and arts scene here in Central Florida! I've always been impressed with her ability to effectively deliver creative socially conscious and uplifting words through poems and songs. Her voice is as authentic as they come. I've booked her for several events and she is always a crowd favorite!

"Aretha Rodney delivers a striking balance of rich poetry, song, and wisdom in everything she does. She is a consummate professional who approaches her work with a relatability to all who hear her - regardless of age or cultural demographic. She brings deep insight into the human experience and offers poetic phrases that linger on the minds of her audience for days. I am grateful she is a story-teller for our time."

One evening in 2021 I was perusing Youtube to find inspirational materials to use during our black history month program. I stumbled across an amazing poet, Aretha Rodney. I reached out immediately and asked her to be a part of our program. She agreed and brought the house down. This year was in person and our campus is still buzzing over her performance! She is kind, humble and an amazing wordsmith. She will leave you feeling inspired!

I first heard Aretha at an evening event for women. From the moment she got up to speak I was drawn in by her powerful and compelling delivery of a Spoken word. I immediately reached out to her to speak at our ministry event for women, Let’s Get Real. She was professional, willing and gracious in in all our communication and in meeting our requirements. This dynamic young woman is strong yet humble in her demeanor and presentation. She is a beautiful woman of God, inside and out.
