Hello, Family, Happy New Year, wishing you all the best. We are continuing Season 3 with a compelling new conversation. I wanted to welcome everyone in the United States and from around the globe. Hello South Africa, Japan, Belgium, Kenya, South America, Paris, Frankfort, Ashburn, Chicago, and St. Louis. Thank you for rocking with us. As we step into another chapter together, my heartfelt wishes for you include great health, abundance, and unfiltered joy. The year has already burst forth with energy, and I can't wait to dive into some noteworthy moments, including the explosive Katt Williams interview. Of course, I'll be sharing insights beyond the sensational aspects because, as you know, I love to glean wisdom from every experience.Speaking of self-made journeys, we have an extraordinary guest in this episode—Jasmine, a visionary entrepreneur on a mission to transform the coffee industry. Born and raised on the south side of Chicago, Jasmine embarked on a nontraditional pathway to entrepreneurship, starting her career in hospitality before making a pivot into the tech world.With over 15 years of experience building brands across various industries, including CPG, Tech, Biotech, and Digital Health, Jasmine co-founded Uncharted Coffee with her sister Danielle. Their love for travel and coffee fueled the creation of Uncharted, a brand that goes beyond the love for the brew. It's a movement—a conscious effort to bring awareness to the social, economic, and environmental issues plaguing the coffee industry.As they delved into the manufacturing process and history of coffee during their travels, Jasmine and Danielle uncovered a dark truth about the industry—rooted in social injustice and environmental devastation, leading to economic hardship in many coffee-producing countries. Their mission became clear: to address the inequities in the supply chain process by uplifting women and communities of color who have long been marginalized.Uncharted Coffee is not just a beverage; it's a symbol of connection—to people, places, and values. It's a testament to the power of entrepreneurship in driving positive change.

Hello Family,I hope your week is well. As I have shared on social media, I have been in my shedding season. One of my teaches once said that before a tree can grow it must shed its bark. This is what I call shedding season. The time were we release emotions and programing that no longer serves is. It is apart of a self-discovery process as we get to know ourselves better while examining our life. Part of self-care is taking the time to look at life from an new vantage point and see parts of the journey inside of its twists and turns. Part of my journey is sharing my story, the parts I often keep to myself. The reason for me, is to release the shame, and turn my pain into power. I can,t encourage others to embrace self-care on a whole new level if I am not willing to the same out loud. As I the bark of my life falls in autumn, my heart is preparing for harvest season in spring. I am honored to share this with you.
