95: Kevin Element Livingston on What Inspired Him To Give Out 100 Suits to 100 Young Men and How He Navigated The Struggles of Following His Purpose


Listen Later

In this show, we welcome Kevin Element Livingston, the heart and mind behind the amazing 100 Suits program, and someone who has taken an idea and run with it, fueled by a lot of belief and willpower. 

We hear from Kevin about his early years in New York City, growing up in Jamaica, Queens, and the difficulties he had in high school that led to him being kicked out. He talks about the job he got as a bank teller and how he started to collect suits from wealthy customers to provide for his community. 

Kevin ties this idea back to the importance that his father placed on being well-presented, and even Eddie Murphy's film Boomerang! We also get into the period in which Kevin was technically homeless, why and how he quit his job at the bank, and some of the milestone moments for his outreach work. 

Kevin has a strong message of taking action, and believes we all have the power to make a difference, so to catch all of this good stuff, listen in with us today!

Send us a text message. We'd love to hear from you!
