Summary

I had the pleasure of chatting with Aurora James. I just adore her!! Aurora is a creative director, founder, activist, author and so much more. We talk about starting the The Fifteen Percent Pledge, dealing with predatory loans, and discuss how she's shifted 14 billion dollars in the US economy. Aurora founded an initiative that urges retail giants to commit 15% of their shelf space to Black-owned businesses by creating clear business strategies and attainable goals.

She is SO special and I hope you enjoy our conversation!
