“Taking the Leap: Monique Farquharson on Culture, Courage & Matcha
From Jamaica to Japan to now the UK — Monique Farquharson’s story is one of guts, grace, and going after what calls you. She’s the founder of The Matcha Yaad, the first Jamaican Matcha company, and she’s not afraid to mix cultures, break molds, and build something the world hasn’t seen before.
When Monique Farquharson left Jamaica for Japan, she didn’t just cross continents—she stepped into a season of radical courage and self-discovery. What started as a leap of faith turned into a life built across cultures, from the quiet discipline of Japan to her new chapter in the UK.
In this episode, Monique talks about taking the leap—leaving her job, moving halfway across the world, becoming a mother, and turning curiosity into a global brand. It’s about faith, courage, and doing the thing even when nobody gets it.
From matcha mornings in Japan to bold new beginnings in the UK, this conversation is about choosing yourself, moving when it doesn’t make sense, and carrying your roots wherever you go.
