This week we tell the inspiring story of the pioneering entrepreneur and beauty mogul, Madam CJ Walker. From being the first member in her family to be born into freedom after the emancipation proclamation and her remarkable rise to becoming the first female self-made millionaire, we talk about the challenges she faced as a black woman in the early 20th century, her groundbreaking business strategies and her unwavering commitment to empowering other women. This is Madam CJ Walker!
