Aromatherapy

Kourtney Perry is authentic in a way that delivers consistency. She shows up and sets the vibe with scents that connect to the human experience. Light a candle from Ladie Lex Candles, close your eyes, and enjoy! This episode explores how Kourtney took her business from the basement to a physical storefront, and now a mobile boutique fueled by a community of true fans.

After the breaks, we hear key takeaways from Kourtney’s experience working through Goldman Sachs One Million Black Women, Black Entrepreneur Bunkers Lab Series, Walkers Legacy Prospectus Procurement Accelerator, and the FedEx Learning Lab. We share one whiff we’d like to take before we pass, commemorate Neighbor’s Day, how to manage a growing product line, building strategically with customer segmentation, and the values of private journalling versus publishing in public.
