The Story Behind 1st Lady

Rashia Wilson, widely known as 1st Lady, is a mother, author, recording artist, promoter, and motivational voice for people rebuilding after setbacks. Her life story runs from deep poverty and survival mode to local fame, federal prison, and a comeback built on accountability.

She has spoken openly about growing up in deprivation, leaving school early, and navigating years shaped by instability. That lived reality is exactly why her message hits: no sugarcoating, no pretending, just truth and growth.

She built 1st Lady Entertainment, promoting events and building a name in Tampa's nightlife and entertainment lanes.

A high-profile federal case led to a 21-year sentence. She served over a decade and came home with a different mission.

Now she is turning pain into power through music, memoir, media, and a movement that says your past is not your ceiling.

From Scandal to Strategy

Since coming home, Rashia has reframed everything. The message is direct: take responsibility, keep pushing, and build a future with purpose. Under the 1st Lady brand, she is creating a platform for truth, growth, and second chances.
