In this episode, I sit down with the inspiring mother-daughter duo Teneisha Thompson and Angel Thompson Cephas, the founders of Bell’s Reines, a gourmet cookie company that’s making waves in the industry. From starting as a food blog to building a thriving brand, they share their journey of entrepreneurship, working together as family, and how their cookies landed in major retailers, museums, and airports.
