The Wild Seed

Gratitude is essential for both personal and professional growth because it shifts focus from what's lacking to what's present, fostering a mindset of abundance and possibility. With Thanksgiving a few days away, we want to take the time to reflect on all that we are grateful for this year, and find ways to express that appreciation to our teams. Gratitude drives success, strengthens relationships, and creates a positive work environment where individuals feel encouraged to contribute their best ideas and efforts. How does gratitude factor into the culture of your business? www.TheWildSeed.org #WomenInBusiness #SupportWomenFounders #AccessToCapital #InvestInWomen #FemaleEntrepreneurs #FundingForWomen #BlackWomenEntrepreneurs #WomenEmpowerment #TheWildSeed

The Wild Seed is honored to support women founders with access to capital. Why? Because women deserve funding! In 2022, startups founded by women only got 2.1% of venture capital funding, and unfortunately, this number hasn’t budged much in recent years. It’s even tougher for women of color, with Black women receiving less than 1% of all venture capital. We are proud to be a small part of the solution. We believe so deeply in the brilliance of women founders and we are thrilled to support their journey. #WomenInBusiness #SupportWomenFounders #AccessToCapital #InvestInWomen #FemaleEntrepreneurs #FundingForWomen #BlackWomenEntrepreneurs #WomenEmpowerment #TheWildSeed The Wild Seed is… Fractal Strategies Morganite Writing Company Blacklight Imaging

We’re a team of empathetic changemakers who are frustrated with the status quo and want to implement the real change our communities deserve. For us, that means going beyond business-as-usual thinking and bringing a fresh perspective to the challenges you face.
