Legal-ease For Entrepreneurs: Empowering Creatives About The Legal Aspects Of Running A Business

In 2009, Mae Murphy created NaturalChica.com and her corresponding YouTube Channel Nikkimae2003 to document her natural hair journey.  Little did she know, she was documenting the story of hundreds of thousands of other Black women. Mae quickly became the go-to YouTuber for natural hair product reviews, natural hair styles and natural hair care.   She has amassed over 600K followers on social media, she has over 171,000 subscribers on YouTube and her channel has hit over 15 million views!   She’s been featured in the New York Times, Essence, on NPR’s Here and Now, Hallmark and USA Today.  And her signature twist-out has even been photoshopped onto former First Lady, Michelle Obama.   Mae and I talk about her how she started her journey, what she learned about herself and how her mission steered her in the right direction. Mae mostly stays out of the spotlight these days.  She now lives in Playa del Carmen, Mexico with her husband and her son.
