Samantha White, CEO of Stella Insurance, challenged the status quo in the insurance industry, advocating for products that cater to women’s needs.

Fast forward to now, we have moved into two different warehouses, an office, and have 20-plus amazing staff members who are on this incredible journey with me,” Stacey Hollands, founder of Lust Minerals
