This episode starts as titled. You WILL hear J.Mix and Mary Jacobs chat about community building as small business owners. And then they divert to their frustrations with New Orleans transplants and how it has bled into post-Katrina parade culture during Mardi Gras. 

Mary is a force and a long-time friend and supporter of The Self-Aware Millennial podcast. She is a New Orleans native and small business owner. She opened Vitality Community Fitness in 2016 with her wife Kristin Kavanaugh and in 2020 began her newest business endeavor, Mary's Rack. She is also the host of the podcast Planet Nola and can be found across New Orleans' stages as a comedian, MC and personality.
