Sparks That Ignite

Hey everyone! We wanted to do something a little bit special for our Thanksgiving episode so today we have on Amir Baiyana. In conversation with Amir, we get a side of things that we don't talk much about on this show and that's the human aspect of everything. So often when thinking about entrepreneurship we forget to discuss the ups and downs that come with life, and how thankful we should be for experiencing everything that comes with them. We hope you enjoy the show and your holiday!

In the previous weeks we've been experiencing some decent problems with our recording platform anchor. These problems led to the cancellation of last week's episode so we want to apologize for that as well as assure you our issues are resolved. This Thursday we got the opportunity to speak with Clyde Killbrew, the Vice President of the student body at Kutztown University. Clyde is not only the Vice president of his student body currently during his junior year, he also gained the presidency of his high school student body his senior year. These are some amongst many of Clyde's accomplishments by  just the age of 20. Listen in as he tells us the different tools he's used as well as some of the people that helped him along the way and his plans for the near future.

This is a very special episode and if you don’t know why, it's because this is the tenth episode of the Sparks That Ignite Podcast and we just want to thank you for sticking with us through the summer. We’ve learned a lot throughout this journey and we hope you guys have taken as much if not more information from each episode as we continue to grow this thing and build our show! On episode 10 we had the opportunity to talk to Jahmer Bunch. Jahmer is a graduate of Monmouth University that is currently working, Enrolled and taking classes at Rutgers University Law school, does expungements for less than a lawyer would charge, and has a show called The Foundation Podcast. Jahmer really takes us to high and low points of his life and very much shows us how you can turn yourself around and start building no matter what point your'e at in life. 

In this week's episode we have rapper Brecreation on as he talks with us about several things including what made him feel different, what got him motivated, as well as his plans during and post college. Like many of our guests, Brecreation is an entrepreneur and is immersed in social media managing. Unlike the majority of our guests, Brecreation uses the funds from his entrepreneurial  ventures to fund his passion for music. Brecreation's album will be available in late September so make sure you check it out! Hope you guys enjoy the show and see you next week for another episode of Sparks That Ignite!

Manuel Brown is his name and although you may not know it, he has qualities that everyone in the world should instill in their day to day life. In this episode we dive into an array of things, spanning from security you subconsciously feel when you have a backup plan, to surrounding yourselves with like minded people. What makes this episode so special is that Manuel is exactly the type of person this show was made to speak to have as a guest. He's a regular guy with a vision and  isn't where he wants to be in the future but takes necessary steps every single day to make sure he gets there, setting short term goals and challenging himself monthly to get better in any way possible. Manuel explains although he's living in the present, he's more excited for what the future holds because he realizes his potential and has found ways to capitalize on it. We hope you enjoy the show! Stay tuned for the next couple weeks because we have some great guests on the way!

Ever heard of Bulletin Flights? Well you soon will. Joining us for this weeks episode we have Ellis Tucci. Ellis is a 21 year-old rising senior at Dickinson College who started a company for everyday people to get flights from private pilots to airports they may not have been able to have access to from a commercial flight. Ellis and his team were invited to the Forbes Under 30 Summit this past year to explain his business to several like minded entrepreneurs and investors. Not only is Ellis a business owner, but he's also an author, currently writing his second book and does a podcast in his spare time. Tune in and enjoy the show!

This weeks episode features entrepreneur software engineer Agbai Iroha. Agbai is the lead software engineer for MYXR Events, an app that helps DJs/MCs/Wedding planners and people of that nature manage their events/staff, stay connected with their clients, and also interact with guests at their events to generate leads. This all started with Agbai being asked to join a project he needed to complete his senior year of college, and quite frankly he never knew it would get this big. Tune in and listen yourself to see exactly where one opportunity may take your life, the same way it's taken Agbai's.

In todays episode we get to talk to Matt Choi, a former Division 1 Collegiate Athlete, on what his process has been like since graduating college. His life has had multiple turns and changes in the few years he's been finished, all by his decision. Throughout this episode you'll hear a very forward and humbled thinker, especially at 24 years of age.  Tune in and listen to what it truly is like, staying down until you come up.
