Archives for November 2016

Here in The Swirl World, we’re busy setting blog and podcast goals for 2017.

One of the goals we’ve set is to bring you more posts featuring Black women entrepreneurs.

Why? Because this:

We’re Every Woman

When I think of Black women and how utterly amazing we are, the song I’m Every Woman by Chaka Kahn cues in my head.

Swirling isn’t all we’re doing.

We’re pursuing higher education.

We’re starting businesses. Per Fortune and Black Enterprise magazines, Black women are entering the entrepreneurial arena in record numbers.

The number of Black women entrepreneurs is high – and we know some of you are in the number! For this reason, expect more entrepreneur-related posts in 2017.

(Stay tuned – we’re going to give you the opportunity to sign up for an exclusive list. The list will present carefully curated, entrepreneurial-related posts). Woot!

Let’s Talk Tech

Recently our podcast Co-Host Adrienne London Leach engaged in some “tech talk” with online web designer and entrepreneur Chrissy Jackson Marquardt.

The Jamaican-born Marquardt is the married mother of 3 boys – and a Swirler!

Chrissy talks tech, and also discusses how she balances being a wife, mother of 3 and an entrepreneur.
