"We are building our own tables," wrote Robert Hartwell in his viral 2020 Instagram post that resonated with many. In this episode, I sit down with Robert—Broadway performer, founder of The Broadway Collective, entrepreneur, and Host & Executive Producer of Breaking New Ground on OWN, HGTV, and Max. Robert shares his powerful story of purchasing and renovating a 200-year-old colonial mansion, built by slaves in 1820, during the 2020 pandemic and the racial justice protests.

I'm so honored to have the opportunity to chat with him about his journey of perseverance, rewriting his story, honoring his ancestors, his passion for supporting small businesses, and advice for first-time homeowners. This conversation is as magical as it is moving. So, whether you're looking for inspiration, tips on perseverance, or just an uplifting dialogue, this episode is for you. Enjoy Robert's magic!
