I was so fortunate to grow up with brothers so when I think of a male-dominated

group that doesn't bother me at all you know it's like I'm so used to being in that

environment I'm an athlete right and you know when you're an athlete right everything is you know it's just another

hill for you to climb it's just another opportunity so being

around you know a male dominant group I was like I didn't even think about that I never

even said that we were women owned never even occurred to me even though we're women. I was like look we have an

amazing product that's going to help you be successful whether you're a cafe or a restaurant or a

tech company with our coffee. That's how I always thought about it. For me it's just, you know, and

I'll anytime I see a little girl and I shake her hand, I say, stand in your

power and shake my hand, right? Because confidence is everything when you're

a woman, right? Having confidence, it's having a seat at the table and

pushing up and having a voice and I always tell the young women that work me, I want to hear from

you loud and proud.
