PROJECT MINDSET

In 2015, Nick Sisombath risked everything. He sold his personal collection of over 200 sneakers, jeopardized his parent’s retirement funds, and left his career to launch his own sneaker brand.

Like many kids in Los Angeles, Nic grew up idolizing the sneaker culture. The early 2000’s was one of the greatest eras of sneakers. The depth of the culture - from the art, the slang, the storytelling, to the quality of products, made that era so iconic. After college, countless retail jobs, internships with footwear designers, and the tenacity of wanting to have his own brand, He launched COLLEGIUM. A brand that embodied everything he idolized in sneakers that could be shared with everyone through a timeless design and experience.

S - Specific

Listen in and let us know what SMART goals you're setting for yourself in 2019!  We also want to hear what you love about Project Mindset and if you'd like to help us achieve our goal hit us with the 5 star rating and leave us a review.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

On episode 13 we sat down with Ajay Fresh, founder of #HashtagLunchbag

#HashtagLunchbag began on Christmas 2012 in a Los Angeles apartment by a group of friends who were having trouble finding a fun & meaningful way to give back. After a few failed attempts, we decided to take it upon ourselves and create our own experience. We went to our local grocery store and bought enough food to prepare 100 lunches (the kind your mom made you in grade school that made the other kids jealous). We sang and danced. We cracked jokes. We took breaks to watch funny Youtube videos. We connected with each other on a different level, while having the time of our lives! We hit the streets near the Santa Monica Pier and Venice Boardwalk looking for anyone that could use a meal. We smiled when asking people if they were hungry. We exchanged pleasantries while handing over our creations. We acknowledged their humanity, as well as our own. When we were done, we felt awesome and wanted to share with our friends! So we did. We shared on each of our social media platforms, jokingly tagging our posts with #HashtagLunchbag as an ode to hashtags.... plus it rhymed with what we were distributing (simple enough, right?).

We didn't originally intend to repeat our efforts but shortly after sharing, we received an abnormally large amount of likes/comments/calls/texts/emails from people telling us how amazing this looked & wanting to join us for "the next one." Riding the high of our good deeds, we decided to repeat our efforts a month later in January 2013. More of our friends joined, more meals were made, and more people were fed. Once again, we felt awesome and once again, we shared. The ripple continued and more people were hitting us up wanting to know how they could get involved. We ran it back for another go 'round in February 2013, growing out of our apartment to a local restaurant. We set a goal of making 1,000 meals. 100 hundred people showed up for the party. We added love notes of encouragement to each meal to further acknowledge those we were feeding, reminding them that they weren't forgotten. Just like we did, everyone went on to share their experiences on their social platforms, intriguing and inspiring their friends and their followers.
