SE3EP5: The Power Of Women Joining Forces, Afro Based Dances & Staying True To Your Source.

Hey C&A's, how are you all doing?

Today, I had the honor to be talking to two confident women from the African diaspora. We talk about their creative and artistic experience and journey of being dancers and developing themselves into entrepreneurs. Two women that have decided to join forces but also work independently within their own productions. What makes their story so unique is that they made the decision to base the foundation of their businesses on knowledge and talent instead of what is the next trend. We talk about the importance of having a great network, the rise and understanding of Afro based dances, and a lot more.

Daniela is the founder of DMEM Industries. Patricia is the founder of BINA Productions. Visit their profiles on Instagram for more info on their productions.
