TBG U: Becoming An Entrepreneur

Get ready, because class is almost in session. Welcome to the Therapy For Black Girls University podcast tailored for the 20-something who’s packing for a new year on campus, thinking through their gap year, enrolling in a community college, grabbing their stoles for graduation, and everything in between.

Black girls have always been the queens of having one or two side hustles at once, especially in college, when you can count on your dorm-mate to be a lash tech, braider, and even a tailor. But what happens when you decide it’s time to upgrade your side hustle into a full-on business? Well, our guest knows a lot about that. Today, we're joined by the founder of the lifestyle wear brand STRIPT, Arianna Davis. Ari is an attorney-turned-entrepreneur and a double graduate of Howard University. In our conversation today, we discuss Ari’s journey from Howard Law student to full-time entrepreneur, how to shoot your shot with big names in order to grow your business, and strategies for balancing textbooks with checkbooks.
