Hey there,
I’m Tamela Blalock

I’ve spent my career at the intersection of sports, growth + impact strategy, and membership, from cutting-edge governance and revenue roles at NCBA CLUSA to shaping fan engagement at the Washington Commanders. Along the way, I’ve built high-impact teams and designed data-driven growth playbooks for trade associations, entrepreneurs, and senior executive leaders—drawing on a unique blend of CEO, CMO, and CIO expertise to drive measurable results. Recruited by the CIA as a college sophomore and armed with an MBA and multiple industry credentials, I bring a championship mindset to every client partnership.
About HRH The Duchess of Success
In 2018, on the very morning Meghan Markle became the Duchess of Sussex, a new royal persona emerged in the world of sports business: HRH the Duchess of Success. As Tamela Blalock’s fearless alter ego—much like Beyoncé’s Sasha Fierce—The Duchess of Success embodies unshakable courage, moxie, and that insider’s edge drawn from decades of high-stakes athletic strategy. She wields sports acumen as her superpower, translating locker-room tactics into boardroom brilliance and opening this elite playbook to a broader audience of executives, athletes, and changemakers. From her YouTube channel to LinkedIn thought leadership, The Duchess invites you into an empire where strategy meets spectacle—and where every executive can claim their crown.
