I cannot tell you how excited I am to present this week’s guest, Nisha Blackwell. Nisha is the Founder and CEO of Knotzland Bowties.
Knotzland is a company that sources the discarded waste from upholstery and textile manufactures to create unique hand sewn bowties.
And Nisha's journey? Just Remarkable!
But let me tell you how I learned about Nisha. One random, lazy Sunday I was watching a morning news program when an amazing google commercial caught my attention.
The ad was about a young black woman (Nisha) who found herself unemployed-but after attending a child's birthday party-she was an entrepreneur.
I kid you not!
But I won't tell the whole story here-you'll get the journey as you listen.
Still, this episode is full of wisdom that Nisha shares from that journey. When you listen, you'll learn about the challenges black women led startups face, gentrification and urban renewal and how being open to new challenges can take you to places you'd never expect.
Her message to anyone with a dream- 'Just Go For It!'
