How’s everyone’s time on the Vineyard going?

While you soak it in, we’re revisiting one of our favorite conversations from Season 3 of So Ambitious, filmed right on the Vineyard. Tiffany “The Budgetnista” Aliche sat down with Felecia to talk about losing everything and finding her way back, from $300K in debt to building an eight figure business without outside funding.

If you need a reminder that rock bottom can be a rebirth, this one’s for you. Full episode on Black Ambition’s YouTube, subscribe today!

There is truly no place like Martha’s Vineyard in August.

And how amazing is it to celebrate Black Business Month in a place that has such a rich history of Black community, culture, and entrepreneurship?

A few of our Black Ambition team members are on the Vineyard this year, but we have also been reflecting on last summer and all of the incredible memories we created together.

We immersed ourselves in the power of community, bringing founders together to exchange ideas, give each other feedback, learn from one another, and simply make space to connect.

There were morning walks, wellness moments, and, of course, the Polar Bears. We hosted our garden party and backyard cookout, brought founders and funders together for Capital & Caviar on Menemsha Beach, and filmed Season 3 of the So Ambitious Podcast right here on the Vineyard.

We also participated in the SPILL x Actively Black photoshoot and joined the Mosaic Genius Gathering on the Vineyard for an incredible conversation. Looking back through these photos has been such a beautiful reminder of what happens when we create space to come together.

Make sure you check out So Ambitious Podcast, and like, share, and follow for more empowering founder stories and moments.

From the Black Ambition stage to Walmart shelves.

We’re excited to celebrate Scarlet by RedDrop, 2024 Black Ambition $1M Grand Prize Winner, on this incredible milestone. Built on the belief that girls deserve better, Scarlet by RedDrop is reimagining period care with products, education, and support designed specifically for tweens and teens.

This is what happens when founders identify a real need, build with purpose, and create solutions that make a difference in people’s lives.

Congratulations to the Scarlet by RedDrop team on expanding their impact and reaching even more families nationwide.

During our Learning Lab, our founders experienced Louis Vuitton’s philosophy of “the object,” rooted in the Art of Travel: a belief that objects are not simply possessions, but purposeful creations designed to accompany journeys, preserve memories, and endure through time.

This philosophy reflects a powerful parallel to entrepreneurship. The most enduring companies are built with the same principles: intention, craftsmanship, innovation, and a commitment to creating something that stands the test of time.

Through the Louis Vuitton x Black Ambition Learning Lab in Paris, founders experienced the values, practices, and perspectives that have shaped one of the world’s most iconic maisons. Through mentorship and conversations with leaders across disciplines, they gained insight into what it takes to build with purpose and create lasting impact.

We are grateful to Louis Vuitton for opening its doors for the 3rd time to our Prize Winners, creating an experience that expands how founders think about their businesses, their brands, and the legacy they are building.

A few weeks ago, our team showed up for Ambition’s founder community in a way that felt personal.

We hosted two virtual workshop sessions exclusively for Black Ambition Prize Winner Alumni and 2025 cohort members — over 150 founders who have already done the hard work of building something real — and it was the kind of conversation that sticks.

Session 1: Compelling Brand Building Our Chief Content Officer Leonard walked founders through how to build a brand for the audience they actually want — not just the one in front of them. Intentional positioning. Effective storytelling. The long game.

Session 2: Make Your Brand a Story Worth Watching Our Social Lead Mendias and Senior Social Media Coordinator Jimenez Castro brought the practical side — platform strategy, social storytelling, and how to turn a brand narrative into content that actually moves people.

Participants walked away with practical tools to align their media presence and brand storytelling, something they could put to work immediately.

This is what Fuse Media’s commitment to Black and Latino communities looks like in practice. Not just content. Not just a media grant. Real expertise, in the room, in service of founders who are building something worth watching.

Proud of our team for showing up the way they did.
