In the latest episode of wakesetGo!, hosted by Mercedes, we commemorate the conclusion of Women's History Month by engaging with Ariel Young, the innovative founder behind Copper and Brass Paper Goods. Ariel shares her remarkable journey from her roots as a school psychologist to becoming an entrepreneur dedicated to infusing the stationery industry with the vibrancy and joy of African American culture. Recognizing a gap in diversity, she embarked on a creative endeavor that initially focused on wrapping paper but soon expanded into a wide array of paper goods celebrating "black woman joy."

The offerings from Copper and Brass are not just products; they are delightful, whimsical creations designed to spread happiness and inspiration. Each item is a testament to diverse expressions of joy, aiming to motivate and uplift your loved ones.

Don't miss out on their spring cleaning sale! Visit ⁠https://www.copperandbrass.net/⁠ to explore and purchase. Supporting and sharing this positive venture is crucial in promoting uplifting media.

Join us for this empowering conversation with Ariel. Let her story inspire you to pursue your ambitions relentlessly, reminding you that no dream is too far out of reach if you push past negativity.
