Throughout the episode, we see Joy navigating the ups and downs of entrepreneurship, and the challenges that she faces as a black woman trying to break into a predominantly white industry. But despite these obstacles, Joy perseveres. She draws on the support and encouragement of her friends and colleagues at the salon, and she refuses to give up on her dreams.
