In this episode Zeinab & Trisha join CMO & Co-Founder of Tanoshi, Lisa Love. Lisa felt she was being held back in her career due to her race. This unfair treatment ultimately led her to leave her company of 11 years, and she co-founded Tanoshi which prepares all kids for a brighter future, no matter their race or socio-economic background - giving them a fair chance to succeed. Lisa’s journey is filled with stories of overcoming personal challenges and learning how to build and grow a hardware start-up during a time of rapid change during the COVID-19 global pandemic, with lessons learnt from appearing on Shark Tank and being creative about fundraising.
