As a solo founder pouring my heart into this business, this recognition means so much.

The support from the Department of Economic Opportunity’s Office of Small Business—alongside the LA Area Chamber of Commerce and LEEAF—came at a time when I needed both guidance and encouragement.

They didn’t just offer resources—they offered belief. Belief that a brand rooted in African plant wisdom, wellness, and community care could grow and thrive.

This moment isn’t just about Violet—it’s about showing other women, especially women of color, that we can build something lasting. That we do belong here. And that creating generational impact isn’t just possible—it’s already in motion.
