In this episode, we are joined by Lara Adekoya, the inspiring CEO and founder of Fleurs et Sel Bakery, as we revisit our live show in honor of National Black Business Month.
Lara shares her remarkable journey of transforming her baking hobby into a thriving business during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Her story is one of transformation, community-building, and customer dedication. She opens up about the challenges she faced, from securing funding and navigating investor dynamics to balancing mental health as an entrepreneur.
Listeners will gain insight into the intricate business side of the $42.2 billion bakery product industry, as well as practical advice on building strong personal connections with customers and overcoming logistical hurdles.
Lara's journey leaves aspiring entrepreneurs with powerful motivation to take charge of their ventures, empowering them to turn their passion into a successful business.
In addition to Lara sharing her story, we were honored to spotlight other local LA businesses including: Crop Swap LA, Alta Adams, and Jackson McCrea Whiskey.
