Host Gloria Ware sits down with Talibah Bayles to explore her journey from federal service to founding TMB Tax & Financial Services and the fintech Bankably.

They discuss Talibah’s 2020 U.S. Senate testimony, the access-to-capital gaps facing small and Black-owned businesses, and practical solutions—financial literacy, documentation, and a new bankability score—to help entrepreneurs qualify for funding.

The episode also highlights Talibah’s new role directing Miles College’s Women’s Business Center and how community-focused coaching, tech, and trusted lender connections can remix who gets funded.
