Rooted and Rising

My former brick and mortar studio boutique in Killeen, Texas.

Just because it was Wednesday….

As a previous Hello Just Tribe member (2019), I was happy to learn about a new entrepreneurial loan program that has recently been established — and I had to share this with you.

What makes this especially powerful is that it was created to support Black and Brown entrepreneurs — founders like us who are often overlooked or underfunded, but are rich in vision, passion, and purpose.

This isn’t just any funding opportunity. It was built with our unique journeys in mind — to help launch, stabilize, or scale our businesses with dignity and access.

I’ll be sharing more details with the tribe soon, including how to apply and who qualifies. But in the meantime, I just wanted to say: we’re not alone in this. Support is here, and it’s real.

Let’s keep building what we were born to do. 💪🏾

With pride & purpose,
