This woman-owned business is not letting the pandemic keep them from launching products! In this interview, I sat down with Thai-Anh Hoang – Co-Founder and CEO of EmBeba who was inspired to develop a new product on a trip to Bosnia. EmBeba is a solution-based, CLEAN skincare brand that uses generation-tested remedies from around the globe to help families with skin irritations. Their first product will launch in January 2021. It’s called Don’t Be Rash” Diaper Balm + Skin Protectant. It will be the first in a series of products that combines generational remedies with modern technology to make them easy and convenient for families to use.

Thai-Anh outlines her journey starting with the concept, research, prototyping, product validation, and manufacturing as excitement builds for her upcoming product launch in January of 2021!

This week we had the opportunity to sit down with Kendrick Ashton Co-CEO and Co-Founder of the St. James Sports, Wellness, and Active Entertainment Destination. Kendrick is no stranger to being a business leader having been a Goldman Sachs investment banker as just one of the many highlights from his career. He shares his story of what inspired him to build this amazing destination, why they exist and how they operate now emerging from the pandemic. Most important he shares their purpose to serve the community and inspire and develop the next generation of athletes.
