Despite Black working mothers being within the fastest-growing group of entrepreneurs——they remain largely underserved and underrepresented in the marketplace. No one has capitalized on their purchasing power or amplified their voices quite like Tika Sumpter and Thai Randolph. Thanks to their new venture, Sugaberry—a lifestyle brand created by and for modern moms of color—they’re changing the narrative by diversifying the proverbial “white space” with a clear mission to cater, cultivate, and celebrate this vibrant community of mothers. Today, Sugaberry merges content, commerce, and community to create a destination for Black consumers. And it’s a smart move. As influential consumers, mothers of color control the lion's share of the total Black spending power, which will reach $1.5 trillion in 2023. According to Forbes, these women not only influence what other Black generations (and Black men) spend their money on, but as early adopters of trends, Black women also influence the general population. In this episode of WorkParty, we talk to Tika and Thai about their personalized content model, how they’re catering to Black consumers at the intersection of career, motherhood, and personal development, and why it’s crucial we amplify the perspectives and experiences of Black moms.

Presented by Mastercard   “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” is a popular TV show for a reason—who doesn't want to see seven figures in their bank account? But the odds of winning a million dollars are pretty slim. So, what does it take to be a millionaire? You’ve likely asked yourself this question at least once in your life, and while it may feel like a pipe dream, today’s guest is here to tell you otherwise. At 23 years old, Cayla Craft was working in a hospital as an ER nurse when children came into the picture and she quickly realized she needed a flexible career that allowed her to work from home. So much so, that by the time she was 26, Cayla had made her first million dollars. Yes, you heard that right! Her entrepreneurial success laid the foundation for Cayla to launch her second business, Mommy Millionaire, in 2017. Through Mommy Millionaire, Cayla has helped thousands of women grow their business with practical tips and resources. Over time, she has grown Mommy Millionaire into a full-fledged brand, eventually launching a podcast and authoring a best-selling book. In this episode of WorkParty, we sit down with the lifestyle coach and mom of three to get the scoop on her journey to becoming a self-made millionaire, her secrets to balancing motherhood with entrepreneurship, and how she’s navigated being a working mom during a pandemic.
