The Data
The 65% Problem
65% of women say they want to start a business. Most never do. Shampaigne Graves has coached 200+ women through that gap, and identified the three invisible barriers keeping ambitious women on the sidelines, plus what actually moves them off it. This isn't a motivation problem. It's a research problem, and Shampaigne has the data to prove it.
