Today I'm joined by Maacha Le Blanc, the founder of Milli Mylk, and one of the very few women of color to have ever raised more than $1M in capital for her business. She's not only on a mission to change the nut milk industry, but she's all about increasing access to funds and information for women of color. In a world where we've been taught to keep the secrets of our success under lock and key, Maacha's flipping the scripts and talking about how helpful a founder's circle can be and how much more we can learn from one another.

If you're looking for ways to get started with funding, here are a few of Maacha's recommendations:

Grants: Amber Grant, Visa and Amex, Cartier Women’s Initiative Award, Tory Birch Foundation Fellows Grant, Grantsforwomen.org, and FedEx Small Business Grant

Communities: The BRIMM, The WIE Suite, Braintrust, Founders Studio, Blabbity, Afro Tech, Female Founders Collective
