Navigating Startup Life with ToughCuties’ Brittany Coleman
Description
Brittany Coleman started selling ToughCutie merino wool technical, performance socks in 2022. Six months into selling, ToughCutie had contracts with REI, Public Lands, Title Nine and more retailers. Coleman belongs to a small community, an estimated 1% of founders in the outdoor industry who identify as a person of color. ToughCutie is the first and only outdoor sock brand with a majority women-owned value chain and this business structure of prioritizing women vendors to create financial agency for women entrepreneurs is a reflection of Coleman's past. In this episode, we get into all the ups and downs of startup life, navigating loneliness, whether or not you should try to do everything yourself, and if a business degree helps or hurts when starting a small business.
