Black women are starting businesses at a higher rate than any other group in the United States. In a world that won’t pay us equitably or treat us fairly in the workplace, this makes a whooooole lotta sense to ME.
We are unapologetically changing the entrepreneurship game, and I love to see it!
I also love to hear it. From the lessons and strategies Black women are using, to stories of success and failure, to navigating the day-to-day, we have a lot to say, share and teach.
This is why I created a list of business and entrepreneurship podcasts led by Black women. Because I thought you might love it too, I’m sharing it here!
I’ve done my best to keep this list of podcasts thorough, with shows that have recently-published episodes.
If I’ve missed any, please shoot me a message through the contact page. I’ll do my best to periodically update this list*
