When Tenesha started her internship in a reproductive health center in Texas, she never imagined where it would lead her. But now she’s the founder of Orchid Investing, a fund that works towards justice for marginalized people in all aspects of their health and reproductive care. Join us for a conversation that digs into the capitalist structures that hold us in oppression – and what you can do to change them.
Tenesha explains what it means to invest for impact and how we can use money and resources to heal generational trauma and injustice. She unpacks how to make sure that your money is building sustainable systems that honor the work you’ve put into them, rather than going to a political entity that’s using a charitable tax status as a vehicle to continue racial and gender oppression. Along the way, we discuss how we can achieve equality in healthcare and tackle all the traumas that these difficult topics bring up.
If you want to know more about how you can help out or how to apply Tenesha’s impact investing blueprint in your home state, you need to stick around for the second part of our conversation. Subscribe to the Found Free podcast to have it drop straight into your podcast feed.
