For this week's episode we revisit an episode from a past Christmas..

What type of Christmas gifter are you, the zero patient type or the one who can wait till the day of? Vee, Joe, and Alessandra's mom are one of these types which Alessandra can't get behind as a serious Christmas lover. Gifting during the holiday season can be hard and with this economy Vee and Alessandra are all about the crafty presents this year. Alessandra reminisces of the bad alcohol habit she had during the early days of the pandemic and Vee reads that happiness is more genetic which is blowing her mind.

Introducing In conversation with Alisa Carmichael, Investment Partner at VMG Partners from Makers Mindset .

Follow the show: Makers Mindset

Alisa Carmichael is the proud mom of two growing boys and Investment Partner at VMG Partners. Like many investors, she got her start in investment banking before joining the ever-evolving world of private equity. Unlike many of her fellow investors, however, Alisa was a black woman who was grappling with imposter syndrome at every turn. Fast-forward to today and she’s not just embracing her role as mother, daughter, investor, mentor, and friend, but owning it. Her unrelenting focus on the BIPOC community inspired the firm’s formation of The Parity Collective: an initiative focused on investing in founders of color across the consumer industry.
