UR Refined: The Exclusive Launch
Sunday, August 30, 2026 | 4:00 PM
Perimeter Zen Venue Loft | Dallas Design District
On Sunday, August 30, 2026, "UR Refined" launched for an unforgettable afternoon celebrating the debut of Dr. Usamah Rodgers and the release of her powerful new book, "They Look Like You: Leading Through Fire With Faith."
Hosted at the intimate and elevated Perimeter Zen Venue Loft in the Dallas Design District, the Exclusive Launch brought together faith, leadership, purpose, and personal transformation in a setting designed for meaningful connection and celebration.
"They Look Like You: Leading Through Fire With Faith" is more than a book about leadership. It is a testimony of perseverance, healing, and the sustaining power of faith.
Dr. Rodgers reminds us that when God calls you to lead, every fire has a purpose, every battle produces strength, and every step forward becomes part of His greater plan. Her story challenges readers to recognize that the very experiences that test us can ultimately refine us, strengthen us, and prepare us to lead with greater courage and conviction.
The afternoon celebrated not simply the publication of a book, but the emergence of a message—one rooted in faith, resilience, leadership, and the courage to keep moving forward when the path gets difficult.
Guests had the opportunity to experience the book firsthand, connect with Dr. Rodgers, celebrate her literary debut, and participate in a special book signing commemorating the beginning of this new chapter.

This was more than a launch.
It was a moment of refinement.
A moment of faith.
A moment of leadership.
A moment to celebrate what happens when you walk through the fire—and come out ready to lead.
