Envy McKee

Envy McKee is a Lifestyle Maven, Award Winning Media Host, Content Creator, Author, Producer and Blogger. She is an 8 year radio veteran, 5 time A.I.R. Award nominated and 2 time A.I.R. Award winning talk show host for her work on WPHI-FM’s On the Real with Envy—featured on the HBO series, Russell Simmons Presents: Brave New Voices. Throughout her flourishing media career Envy has been known for her unbridled creativity, “kick the door in smart girl sass”, her enduring passion of helping people find their awesome and her obstinate desire to blaze her own trail of awesome in media.

Envy’s Blog, The Envy McKee Show boasts readers and die-hard fans from around the world and shuttles them head first into her witty, highly inspired 6 year journey as a single mother and media entrepreneur. The blog explores a variety of themes: love and relationships, health and well-being, fixing our food, consciousness and finding the dormant awesome in us all. Envy journeys through all of these themes and more in her signature style of quirky authenticity, well-crafted humor and spiritual insight wrapped in a package of what she calls “reality show-esque”.

Aside from her blog and creating content for radio, TV, print and the web through her company ArkyM Entertainment, Envy hosts two burgeoning web series: Fridays with Envy and The Envyous Life. Envy has written a speculative fiction book series called The Stellar Trilogy and a poetry offering called Functional Love Junkie. She’s recorded the companion album Functional Love Junkie produced by Grammy award winning producer Carvin Haggins and is developing a one woman show of the same name. In the pipeline is a non-fiction book series titled the New Diva’s Guide. The goal of The New Diva’s Guide series is to share with women, particularly women of color, how to tap into the Envyous Life— living the dream: stellar relationships, creative pursuits, impacting the world around us and living satisfying lives of our own design.  Envy is also an inspirational, unforgettable Keynote Speaker and Emcee.  She hosts all kinds of events around the country and speaks to people of all ages and group sizes in her funny and uniquely engaging approach to living more authentic, conscious lives; the power of our unique voice; and making dreams happen, despite the odds.

In 2007, Envy created a t-shirt line called SmarTeez in an effort to raise money for her fundraising initiative The Human Lobby. The SmarTeez brand billboards sentiments such as “I READ” and “My Brain Can Kick Your Brain’s Ass”.  Sales of SmarTeez on www.envymckee.com buy books, supplies, and computers for underserved schools in underserved communities across the country.
