What does being a Black Female Entrepreneur mean to you?

When the atmosphere becomes challenging, what drives you to keep going?
In my journey as a founder, I’ve encountered unique challenges that have shaped my approach to business. What keeps me going through the challenges is the recognition that these hurdles are forcing me to grow and evolve, especially when it comes to resourcefulness and creativity. Each obstacle has taught me to be more resilient and to better appreciate the learnings on the journey rather than staying hyper-focused on the destination.
