Ms. Kane ,

So Inspirational!

I love this episode and I am excited for more episodes to come! Chisolu gave a lot of good tips on how to start a business. I love how she didn’t take the easy route and educated herself on her business, even if it meant less money at first. Heart of a hustler and a mind of a dreamer...dope lyrics and so motivational! Ready for more episodes. This woman is amazing and has a lot of knowledge to share!

KeethBee ,

A woman’s woman!

My wife turned me onto her podcast, but really everyone can learn for Chisolu’s experience and expertise - her drive and focus are truly astounding, and that same level of take no prisoners determination really comes through in the Forever A Dreamher podcast!
