NEW OWN DOCUSERIES "HEART & HUSTLE: HOUSTON" PREMIERES AUGUST 2, SPOTLIGHTING A POWERFUL SISTERHOOD OF BLACK WOMEN

(Los Angeles, Calif.) - HEART & HUSTLE: HOUSTON, a new series following an incredible sisterhood of Black women thriving in the heart of Houston, Texas, will premiere on Saturday, August 2 at 9pm ET/PT on OWN. These women are redefining what it means to be a boss, a wife and a mother while navigating entrepreneurial life plus a labyrinth of unique daily challenges. Despite appearing to have it all, they face insecurities and pressures to stay on top in a competitive town while maintaining a perfect image. But through it all, their unbreakable bond of sisterhood and support inspires them to rise above the chaos, reminding them it's okay to be perfectly imperfect.

"Heart & Hustle: Houston brings a fresh, dynamic perspective - one that centers Black women not just in conflict, but in community, healing, and growth. It's a powerful look at ambition, resilience, and the bonds that hold friendships together, even through life's toughest moments," said Tina Perry, President of OWN.
