In this episode, we sit down with Zoë Stone, the visionary behind Charcutistry. Join us as we explore the importance of starting with what you and the power of perspective. We delve into the intersection of faith, identity, and career and how Create Campaign's Spark Community Business Academy has been pivotal in the entrepreneurial journeys of both Zoë and Dr. Tasha. Listen in as we discuss the significance of integrity and staying true to oneself while pursuing professional relationships and opportunities. We dissect the term "nappy," navigating respectability politics, and the importance of owning and telling our stories toward new opportunities.

Key Terms:

To appropriate means to take or use something from another culture, often without permission or understanding, and typically for personal gain or benefit. This contrasts with acculturation, which involves gradually integrating aspects of another culture into one's own as people from different backgrounds interact and exchange traditions, languages, and behaviors. Appropriation can lead to the misuse or misrepresentation of cultural symbols and practices, often with no regard for the resulting harm.
