I love interviewing creatives and hearing their stories of how they found their passion, their struggles of pursuing their passion, the ups and the downs - there is ALWAYS something to learn. I got the chance to sit and have a rich conversation with two talented individuals, Sam Fu and Jon Armstrong who are photographers in the PNW. I met Sam in late 2017 and Jon just last month, we all instantly connected as we shared stories of our upbringing, food, traveling and more. It was no question that I had to have them on the podcast!

What is the biggest thing you have learned about yourself to this day? This was the first deep question of MANY that I asked in this interview. I'm thankful to have had the chance to chat with Zay and Yohiness J. Two strong, smart and motivating young men that are trying to make a name for themselves while creating a movement that brings people together. It's not easy being a young entrepreneur in Seattle. With the tech industry booming, the Seattle freeze, politics and more it is hard to get your name out there. Learn about how these guys have navigated their way into making successful events, gaining personal strength, educating the country on the nationwide known hate crime toward their friend DaShawn and staying positive through adversity. I think it's important to understand that we all go through challenges in life, and sometimes just hearing how someone else makes it out is motivating in itself but also reminds you that you are not alone.
