A conversation with Dajana Johnson, the owner/operator of The Slay Station, a salon at 1st and Polk near downtown Amarillo. Only 22 years old, Dajana is a young entrepreneur who is carving out a career despite the challenges of her low-income upbringing. With host Jason Boyett, Dajana reveals her career path so far, why her salon is only "Level 3" in a multi-step career, and why it's so important for young women like her to see other females and minorities in ownership positions.
