In this episode, host Victoria Jenn, sits down with powerhouse serial entrepreneur, Qiana Aviles. From her roots growing up Puerto Rican in Brooklyn, getting arrested, to founding multiple successful businesses and landing a groundbreaking wellness-and-beauty deal with Walmart, Qiana drops all the tea on her inspiring journey.

We get real and raw about:

• Overcoming a federal indictment to rewriting her story
• Navigating stigma and breaking generational curses
• Behind-the-scenes of pitching and landing her Walmart deal—and what that REALLY takes
• Team building, the importance of owning your IP, and the dynamics of women collaborating in business
• The must-know truths about growing, scaling, and funding a product-based business

If you want to hear what it takes to build generational wealth, create your seat at the table, and do it como una jefa, this conversation is for you.
