THE PODCAST
Real conversations about business, life, and the lessons learned in between.
Sevetri Wilson Taylor and Sheena Allen have raised capital, built companies from the ground up, and learned the lessons that only come from actually doing it. Rich Lessons is where those lessons go public: honest, unfiltered conversations about entrepreneurship, money, business, culture, and what it really takes to build something that lasts.
Real lessons from people who built real things.

The conversation explores the controversial debate around universal basic income (UBI), why trades like plumbing and electrical work may become the most secure and profitable careers, and how “vibe coding” is creating new opportunities for non-technical founders. They close with their biggest “rich lessons” on resisting over-reliance on AI and the importance of self-initiative in building a sustainable future.

THE VOICES
Meet the Hosts
Sevetri Wilson Taylor and Sheena Allen share a strong connection as Southern-born and raised entrepreneurs who have raised millions in venture capital, bootstrapped companies, and made their mark in competitive industries, including govtech and fintech. After meeting in 2016, their shared experiences and vision led them from “founder friends” to real-life friends, and eventually to a natural collaboration as business partners.
The duo started the Rich Lessons Podcast to provide a window into the challenging realities and inspiring takeaways from their extensive experience as entrepreneurs.
