Key Piquet Interest KPI Entrepreneurial Insights LGBTQ Editions

Chef Queen Precious-Jewel Zabriskie and Jay White co-owners of Indulge Catering discuss what it's like to be in business and how they manage to be authentically themselves in business.

We are Velasquez Media short for Velasquez Digital Media Communications, a professional communications company that focuses on working with BIPOC and

LGBTQ women identified businesses that need messaging in digital media.

As a woman and minority owned business, we are interested in talking to couples that look like us: lesbian couples in a service business. That’s why this podcast exists. I have been looking for a queer business podcast that showcased LGBTQ and BIPOC owners. I found a few in each category but none that mixed the two. So we created Key Piqued Interest podcast. This show is looking to honestly connect with other successful LGBTQ couples in business.

We aren’t going to exclusively focus on couples. But this first series will focus on couples running a business. We are trying to show the world that we are out there contributing and making a difference in our communities.

We’re also trying to create visibility for BIPOC LGBTQ folks in business.

We hope you enjoy this episode. We are open to nominations, introductions, and suggestions for guests.

Hit us up in the comments. Thanks for watching and listening.
