Can't Hang Aleah Balas

This week on Can’t Hang, I hang with Keisha Greaves, an entrepreneur from the Boston area who was diagnosed in her 20s with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy.

Keisha and I chat about the verbiage around disability, the ways her life and mindset have changed, and her new line of adaptive swimwear coming this spring. I loved hanging with Keisha because she has so much valuable information to share and she is so gracious in the way she educates others, specifically able-bodied people about things they may not realize.

In honour of International Women's Day on Monday, I am releasing two episodes this week - both with incredible female entrepreneurs.

This week on Can’t Hang, I hang with Ali Kriegsman, female entrepreneur from New York City, who runs the online marketplace, Bulletin. Ali got her start in entrepreneurship at the young age of 24 and has only grown from there, being on the Forbes 30 under 30 list and growing her tech startup with funding from Silicon Valley. Ali’s first book, How to Build a Goddamn Empire comes out in April.

This week on Can’t Hang, I hang with Brandi Leifso, founder of Evio Beauty - a Canadian brand that is changing the game with their clean AND luxurious products, some of which are made with Hemp. Brandi originated her beauty brand while living in a shelter in BC and it has grown from there. We speak about domestic violence, getting her start and the still-taboo cannabis industry.
