too muchToo much is the point.
“Angelica is
too ambitious.”
Too outspoken.
Too confident.
Too much.
They’re right.
But here’s the thing. When you start a national broadcasting career at 15 — without connections, clout or cash — ambition is what drives you.
When you become one of Glamour magazine’s 35 Under 35 Running Hollywood, that confidence keeps you going.
And when you finally hold that Emmy award in your hands, you know your too much is what made it possible.
Angelica went from humble beginnings in Minnesota to a groundbreaking career in Hollywood. Despite obstacles and naysayers, she realized she could accomplish anything with hard work and unrelenting determination.
She got her start at 15 as a national radio host, and went on to serve as Executive Producer of BabbleOn, a talk channel for young adult listeners at XM Satellite Radio. In 2005 she became a producer on the Emmy award-winning Tyra Banks Show, then joined CBS in 2010 to launch The Talk where she was named network television’s youngest Head of Daytime, leading the daypart to 116 Daytime Emmys during her tenure.
Today, Angelica is EVP & General Manager of Entertainment at Hearst Media Production Group, where she has built an unscripted production company from the ground up.
Angelica has been recognized with seven Imagen Awards for her work in entertainment. She founded Raise Women, a mentorship organization connecting ambitious women at the beginning of their careers with mentors.
The accomplishment Angelica is most proud of is her two daughters who inspire her mission to help others earn a seat at the table or create their own.
"I love when they say I’m too much.
Because you don't get anywhere worth going by being just enough of anything."
