"Breaking Barriers: How Nike John Raised Funds for Her Cannabis Business"
Nike John, the founder and CEO of The Heritage Club, a Boston-based cannabis dispensary and its nonprofit subsidiary joins Kyra Reed to shares her inspiring funding story. She talks about becoming the youngest dispensary owner in Boston and a role model for her community and how she felt called to reinvent what it means to be a black business owner in the cannabis industry, where black and brown individuals are predominantly affected by the war on drugs. The podcast also introduces a new segment, "She Had My Back," which celebrates women who take care of other women.
