Quick behind the scenes moment about my business because people always ask me how I actually run everything. Shopify is literally the platform where I turn this tiny idea into a business. Before this, I was just popping up at any in-person event, any vending opportunity I could, which I still do, but I wasn't as focused online. I was like, the websites are going to be too much to build out. I'm not a super techie person even though I can make things cute.

I build my own store. I manage my community, own my own customer relationships. Plus, this is my favorite thing, Shopify gets my products everywhere. I'm able to link stuff through Google, YouTube, TikTok Shop, the Shop app, even ChatGPT, and Instagram, which is very important for me. And Shopify's AI cofounder sidekick, game changer. Let me tell you all. It's helped me not only optimize my site, it helps me look at my sales trends, it updates my product skills, all the stuff I'm absolutely not an expert in, but it's like having a genius business partner that never sleeps. And right now, the Brown Girl Grinding storefront and the Black FX storefront is busy, and Shopify is handling all of the heavy lifting. I love that for us. I am so pumped that Shopify is going to show up at the Black Effect Podcast Festival this year in a big way, and I will be there preaching this platform to all of the
