Meet Darlisa Diltz, educator and evangelist for under-serviced entrepreneurs

For Darlisa Diltz, opening her own center to provide other entrepreneurs with training and access to resources was a personal challenge. Serving the broader Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, Darlisa opened the North Texas Entrepreneur Education & Training Center in 2018 as a "no judgment" zone for people like her to start and build their businesses. In this conversation with guest host Jacqui Dietrich, Darlisa shares more about creating culturally appropriate programs and her experience as the only Black woman to lead a small business support organization in her ecosystem.
