In today’s episode, host Lindsay Pinchuk sits down with Snoop Dillard, Atlanta’s most high-profile female Black entrepreneur, for an honest conversation about the long journey it took for her to reach success.

Snoop is the epitome of a serial entrepreneur. After graduating from Vanderbilt University, Snoop immediately began dabbling in entrepreneurship and opened her first business at the age of 24. Today, she owns several highly profitable businesses, including Escobar Restaurant & Tapas Lounge, which she co-owns with superstar rapper 2 Chainz. While Snoop is widely known for her success, the road to get there was full of lessons, lows, and walking away from many past businesses. According to Snoop, the best thing any aspiring entrepreneur can do is appreciate their journey because success doesn’t happen overnight.
