🎥 This Month’s Featured Film: "SHE DID THAT"

She Did That. is a powerful documentary that celebrates Black women entrepreneurs and the incredible impact they have on business, culture, and communities. Directed by Renae Bluitt, the film offers an intimate, behind-the-scenes look at the journeys of Black women who are building thriving brands and breaking barriers — despite facing systemic obstacles and underrepresentation.

It features inspiring stories and insights from influential business leaders including Lisa Price (founder of Carol’s Daughter), Melissa Butler (founder of The Lip Bar), Tonya Rapley (financial educator), and Luvvie Ajayi (author and speaker).

More than just a business documentary, She Did That. is a celebration of resilience, creativity, and the unapologetic drive of Black women to create their own lanes and redefine success on their own terms.

Entrepreneurship & Business Growth – Building a brand from the ground up✅ Resilience & Overcoming Adversity – Facing discrimination and industry challenges✅ Women in Leadership – Breaking barriers in a male-dominated society✅ Branding & Marketing – The power of storytelling and self-promotion
