In 2018, the two of us friends, Candace Hokett and Shante Anderson got together in the comfort of our living room, thinking about how hard it was for us to stay on the right track within our side hustles in the big city. 

​

We knew a lot, and definitely knew people who we considered "on their grind," but we still needed more. More educational resources, more professional conversations with our personal network, more mentorship, more accountability, and above all, more encouragement. 

​

We realized how many other creatives are struggling with getting and staying motivated to create their craft. 

​

Here you will find a home in knowing that no two are just alike, and that's what makes us so valuable to connect with each other in the most authentic of ways, to build for a better tomorrow. Not just for us, but for the greater good of  fostering better communities of color.
