Women of color face more obstacles raising money, building their brand, and finding a community to support them as entrepreneurs. We are incredibly grateful for this powerful discussion led by Kalina Bryant, founder of UnapologeTECH, as she sat down with Rhonesha Byng, founder of Her Agenda, Bridgid Coulter, Founder of Blackbird House, and Dr. Ava Brown, founder, author, and speaker to hear how they have persevered through difficult situations and leaned on their community.

Get ready with your pen and paper for this because these women offered so many insightful stories, thoughts, and tips that we think you might just need to watch it for yourself to be able to fully soak up everything this conversation has to offer.

Check out the video and some of our favorite quotes below:

One action all women entrepreneurs should take this week:

Bridgid Coulter:
”If you've been burning the candle at both ends take this weekend to take a break and reflect. Taking a day off isn't going to change your trajectory. If you are pushing yourself, if you are exhausted, take your time, sis. It’ll be there next week but YOU need to be here. Do what you need to do to be well.”

Dr. Ava Brown:
”Take a moment and write a letter to yourself really acknowledging all you've been through this year and that you're still standing. Take that space allow yourself to feel and really realize how lucky you are to still be present, strong , and powerful. Make it a habit to take a pause and celebrate yourself. When you celebrate the micro-wins, the macro-wins will follow.”

Rhonesha Byng:
”Write down 3 small things you're grateful for every morning for the next 30 days, make it a habit. “
