News Of The Week

The Future Is Looking Bright 😎

Trailblazers

They say age is just a number 🔢 And no matter how young or old you are, age should never be a barrier to you blazing your own trail.

The Forbes 30 Under 30 2023 list was released this week. ICYMI, Megan Thee Stallion is on the list and made headlines as the first Black woman on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Cover.

The list is broken into 6 categories, and features young people who are doing some impressive, groundbreaking work. We celebrate them all - and especially the women of colour who are making waves. To name a few:

Rana Abdelhamid, founder of Malikah. A non-profit organisation that’s trained thousands of women around the world in self-defense, anti-hate crime advocacy, and emotional healing work.
Steph Hon, founder of Cadence. A company manufacturing travel toiletry bottles that are stylish, leakproof, customisable, and sustainable.
Kinjal Sha, cofounder of Komorebi. A decentralized autonomous organization investing in crypto founders who are women and underrepresented minorities.
Brittany Diego, founder of Fashion Mentor. Providing people of colour in the fashion industry with career coaching, training and interview prep.

The future is looking bright!
