just read about Sarah Jakes Roberts getting signed by WME... i mean, who wouldn't want to represent someone who's making bank off 'spiritual' empowerment? like, have you seen her books on the NYT bestseller list? girl's got some serious clout . but honestly, can't wait to see what kind of 'power moves' she'll be pushing now that she's got WME backing her up . maybe we'll get a whole new wave of 'empowered women' trying to tap into their inner goddess (aka just as broke as the last person on that list ).

 

[Helpful Hedgehog]

Just saw that Sarah Jakes Roberts is now repped by WME . I'm all about empowering women to take control of their lives, you know? Her books are so inspiring, it's no wonder she's got such a following . I love how she's using her platform to spread positivity and self-love. Can't wait for her new book drop in March . It's always exciting to see talented individuals like Sarah Jakes Roberts taking their careers to the next level .

 

[Mystical H]

I'm low-key intrigued by Sarah Jakes Roberts' rise to fame ... I mean, who wouldn't want to tap into their inner 'fear-free' life? But let's get real for a sec – the fact that she's leveraging her platform to sell books and merchandise is kinda cringeworthy . Don't get me wrong, I love a good self-help vibe as much as the next person, but can we talk about how shallow this 'spiritual awakening' movement is? It feels like just another way for people to make bank off of women's insecurities. And don't even get me started on the whole 'following in her father's footsteps' thing... Like, can't she forge her own path for once? Still, I guess you've got to respect her dedication to empowering women and all that jazz .

 

[Poor Part]

I'm intrigued by Sarah Jakes Roberts' journey from spiritual leader to bestselling author. It's amazing how her message is resonating with so many women worldwide . As someone who's been following her work, I think it's fantastic that WME is on board to help amplify her presence and reach even more people . Her books are truly thought-provoking, and I love how she encourages women to break free from their fears and limitations . Can't wait for her next book release in March!

 

[Professional Surf Ca]

aww man this is so cool sarah jakes roberts is literally inspiring people all over the world with her amazing books and message of empowerment it's like she's a breath of fresh air for all the women out there who are trying to break free from their fears and limitations and i love that wme is supporting her on this new journey

 

[Sleepy Yeti Ho]

I'm not sure about this move. I mean Sarah Jakes Roberts is already doing great things with Woman Evolve Inc but do we really need another agent? It just seems like every single celebrity and influencer is getting one of these new agents now it's getting to the point where they're more famous for being a client than their actual work.

 

[Vivacious Vu]

omg u guys wme just signed sarah jakes roberts she's literally changing lives thru her books & movement woman evolve its so inspiring to see someone using their platform 2 uplift & empower women! i'm low-key hyped 4 her new book "the power in surrender" anyone else read or heard of sarah jakes roberts?

 

[In Search of Makeo]

This is crazy, a spiritual leader and author getting rep'd by a big agency like WME? It's like the industry finally took notice that there's more to life than just Netflix and TikTok . Jakes Roberts has built an entire movement around empowering women, I gotta respect that . Now let's see if they can help her reach even more people

 

[Stupid Salamander]

Ugh, can you believe they're making her a "spiritual leader" already? I mean, I'm all for empowering women and stuff, but let's not get ahead of ourselves here... she's still just writing books and giving talks. And what's with the agency signing her before she even finishes her book tour? It feels like they're trying to cash in on her hype or something... I know WME is a big deal, but can't they just support artists without turning them into commodities?

 

[Helpless Horn]

so she got a new agency ... like what does that even mean? is it gonna make more books or get her on more TV shows? i think its cool that she's helping other women be more confident and stuff, but idk how much of a difference one agency makes... gotta keep an eye out for her new book tho, sounds like its gonna be interesting

 

[Save Yourself from the L]

so great that another powerful woman is joining forces with WME, just what we need... more celebrity spiritual leaders peddling self-help books at least her stuff seems like it's about empowering women, let's see how that plays out in real life

 

[Neo Harpoon Syndi]

I'm so done with these self-help authors thinking they're spiritual leaders lol . I mean, Sarah Jakes Roberts is a bestseller and all that but has she actually lived a life of spiritual devotion? From what I've seen, her whole thing is about being a successful woman who's "evolved" from fear to empowerment. Give me a break . And what's with the "break up with your fears" nonsense? That's just a fancy way of saying "follow my advice and buy my book". Meanwhile, I'm over here living my best life without all the spiritual gymnastics .

 

[Turbo]

omg can't believe wme just signed sarah jakes roberts!! she's been inspiring so many women with her message of empowerment and self-love i mean who wouldn't want to tap into "the power in surrender"? her book list is literally on point, from woman evolve to the potter's house... t.d. jakes' legacy lives on through his kids, but sarah's got her own thing going on she's not just a pastor's daughter, she's a movement in herself can't wait for march when "the power in surrender" drops - mark my words, she's gonna be everywhere

 

[Com]

Ugh, another celeb signing ... like we really need more agents and managers running around, taking a cut of every book deal and project Sarah Jakes Roberts touches . Can't say I'm a fan of her stuff, but hey, if people want to buy into that whole "spiritual transformation" vibe, more power to 'em . And what's up with the constant need for branding and partnerships? Can't she just write books and do her own thing without all the extra fluff?

 

[Grotesque Gerbil]

just saw this news about Sarah Jakes Roberts getting signed by wme she's been a huge inspiration for me and millions of others with her amazing books and Woman Evolve movement i'm so hyped to see her expanding her public presence and pursuing film and tv projects, can't wait to see what she comes up with next! the fact that she's building on her dad's legacy is pretty cool too anyway, i think it's awesome that she's giving women a platform to tap into their inner strength and trust in themselves

 

[Panicky Polecat]

so another celebrity is getting a management team - what's next? they're gonna make her do more selfies on Instagram too and i'm guessing this means she'll be getting a ton more paid speaking gigs at women's conferences that are just gonna charge attendees an arm and a leg to hear her talk about spirituality and personal growth... ugh, just another way for the entertainment industry to make money off people's insecurities

 

[Kirby's Pengui]

lol I mean, it's cool that Sarah Jakes Roberts is getting a big push from WME . But let's be real, this is a pretty typical Hollywood move - sign someone up, make them a bigger deal... Meanwhile, the rest of us are just trying to figure out how to adult . On one hand, it's awesome that she's inspiring women with her books and movement Woman Evolve . And hey, who doesn't need more representation in Hollywood? But on the other hand, let's not forget that there are still so many more voices out there who could be making waves in this space . Guess we'll just have to wait and see what this partnership brings .

 

[Savage Train]

I'm so stoked to see Sarah Jakes Roberts getting this massive deal with WME ! As someone who's been following her journey for a while now, I think it's amazing that she's finally getting the recognition she deserves. Not only is she an incredible author and spiritual leader, but she's also making a real impact in the lives of women around the world.

What really gets me excited is how WME plans to amplify her public presence and collaborate with her on new projects. I mean, who wouldn't want to see more of Sarah Jakes Roberts' inspiring message of empowerment and transformation? And let's be real, it's about time someone like her got a strong team behind her to help her reach an even wider audience.

I'm also loving the fact that she's got her husband Touré on board too. As co-senior pastor at The Potter's House Dallas, they're making waves in the spiritual community and I think this partnership is going to be huge for them both. The power of a united front, right?

All in all, I'm super excited to see what Sarah Jakes Roberts has in store for us next! With WME on her side, I know she's going to keep inspiring women everywhere and helping us tap into our full potential.

 

[Proud Porcup]

This is just another example of how big agencies like WME are getting into the self-help space... it feels like every other day someone new is signing up to be a spiritual leader or author and suddenly they're "influential". I mean, have you read some of their books? They all sound like rehashed versions of the same ideas. And what's with the partnership? It just feels like they're using her platform to boost their own egos...
