In honor of National Women’s Small Business Month, The 19th is gathering entrepreneurs and business leaders for meaningful conversations about the challenges and opportunities for women, women of color and LGBTQ+ people in business. Where did these leaders find the inspiration to create their businesses, the courage to take a big leap and the support necessary to grow successful companies? What were the obstacles they encountered along the way and what advice do they have for those ready to forge their own path?
