Every dream deserves a real shot. But for women in Nigeria, that first step is often the hardest.

98% can't access formal credit. That means no bank accounts, no capital, and no clear path forward.

But you can change that with Heifer International.

When you donate to Heffer's Micro Loan Impact Fund, 100% of your gift goes to women entrepreneurs, helping them

access capital to grow their farms and businesses, because when one of us rises, we all rise. Fund a loan

today at Heifer. That's H-E-I-F-E-R.org slash sleigh.

Welcome to the Slay Girl Slay podcast, a space designed to uplift, to motivate and to inspire you, to be fearless in the pursuit of your dreams, go after what you deserve, and

show up as your most unapologetic, most authentic self.

This audio series was created for every woman who's on the verge of her come-up.

She's creating her own vibe and fiercely transforming her life.

So sit down with me, get your notebook, grab a pen, and let's create the life that you've always

dreamed of. I'm your host, Ashley Legs, and this is the Slay Girl Slay podcast. Hey girl, hey, welcome back

to the Slay Girl Slave podcast. I hope all of you are doing well and your

week is off to a great, great, great start. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend this weekend and this

episode finds you well. I just want to start us off this week by saying this. My prayers are with those

of you that are being affected by these snap benefits

being delayed. Depending on the time that you listen to this episode, maybe the funds have been

released and everything is back to normal. Maybe not. But right now, as of the date and time

of me recording, over 40 million people in the United States are facing delays with getting food assistance.

Out of that 40 million, 16 million of them are little kids.

I posted some resources if you need help or if you're looking to help.

It is on our socials on TikTok and Insta.
