Actor, producer, recording artist, and entrepreneur Queen Latifah shares on this episode of Paychex Thrive, a Business Podcast, what she feels are the biggest challenges facing millions of women-owned businesses. She comments on the disparate funding from venture capitalists that direct less than 5% of all dollars to women-owned businesses and to the lack of recognition for women already in powerful positions. She advises women to keep up the fight, but also to ensure they are practicing self-care and living in the moment.
