In this episode you will hear me on the other side of the table. I had the opportunity of getting interviewed on 'Two Peas In A Pod' Podcast.  Ramon & Denita Smothers are previous guest on this show. Episode 21. I talk about my experiences in entrepreneurship, the value of a mentor and how to find the right one. I also got a chance to talk about some of the projects I am currently working on.

In this episode, I talk to Jahmal Cole. He is the founder of My Block, My Hood, My City. It is a vessel to introduce Chicagoans to places in their City they've never seen or experienced. Every week they take a group of interested teenagers on a City-wide exploration, visiting hidden gem businesses, artful intersections, and exposing them to more of Chicago, not just a few blocks. By taking teenagers outside of their comfort zones, but right next door in their own city, they can see what Chicago has to offer, and experience a different perspective that will awaken ownership and pride in them. Jahmal is a published author of three books and currently working on the fourth. This brother is inspirational in so many ways and you're going to be blown away by his story.
