Side Hustle Pro: Women Entrepreneurs | Black Women Business Owners | Solopreneurs

This week in the guest chair we have self described dreamer and doer Lola Banjo, the Founder, Creative Director and Designer of Silver & Riley, a premier luxury travel and fashion leather goods brand made exquisitely in Italy. Lola launched Silver & Riley in October 2019 with one main goal—creating stylish, functional and luxurious pieces that do not break the bank, yet make you look and feel like a million bucks. This Black-owned and Black-woman owned luxury handbag line is making waves. And it took years to get here.  In this episode we discuss: What inspired Silver & Riley and why it took her 10 years to finally launch her business The painful lesson that cost her $20,000 due to a shady manufacturer The response she received once she launched in October 2019 and what happened once the pandemic hit! & so much more!
