The entire cast is busy grinding to accomplish their goals. Since Black Business Month is coming to a close, we decided to highlight their blossoming businesses.

The pilot season spotlighted Tylynn Burns’ event planning business. It also touched on Amanda Scott endeavors as a brand manager as the two besties often coordinated and publicized events together. This season highlighted another bestie duo. Briana “Bri” Jones’ debuted her body butter in a special launch event. One episode also shed a light on Rebecca Magett’s popular wellness products.
