EP277. Meet the beauty entrepreneur who bootstrapped her way into 1,000 Walmart stores

What does success really look like for a beauty entrepreneur?

In an industry that often celebrates rapid growth, aggressive fundraising, and influencer-heavy marketing, there’s a quieter, more sustainable path – one that values creative control, profitability, and long-term impact over flashy headlines.

In this episode of Green Beauty Conversations, Lorraine Dallmeier – Chartered Environmentalist, Biologist and CEO of Formula Botanica – is joined by Chinelo Chidozie, co-founder of Bolden, a beauty entrepreneur who bootstrapped her brand into over 1,000 Walmart stores across the United States, without any external funding.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you can grow a beauty brand on your own terms, this episode is for you. Tune in now!
