Necole Kane
Founder/CEO
Necole Kane’s transformation in 2022 was nothing short of inspirational, and we've enjoyed watching the journey. Kane has long been lauded for her entrepreneurial savvy. After all, the NecoleBitchie.com founder had already transformed the way we consumed Black celebrity news while bringing in millions of views a month. Her decision to pivot into a space where she empowered Black folks led to the launch of xoNecole.com, which went on to become acquired by esteemed Hollywood producer Will Packer in 2017. Kane eventually made the choice to step down from xoNecole altogether to focus on her feminine wellness brand, My Happy Flo. She knew how medical conditions like fibroids impact on Black women's health, so she decided to devise a product containing a plant-based supplement to help with painful periods, which often come with heavy bleeding and cramping. When asked why she felt the need to launch a product that focuses on menstrual health, Kane explained: “I am passionate about helping women of color who are struggling with heavy periods and fibroid symptoms and missing out on life because of it. The statistics regarding Black women and fibroids are alarming and we wanted to help do something about this silent epidemic."
