Born and raised in Franklin, Tennessee Sofie Rovenstine was Miss Tennessee Teen USA 2018 and placed Top 10 that year at Miss Teen USA. Since giving up her crown she has gone on to walk in the coveted Victoria’s Secret Fashion show, shoot their campaign, and has quickly made a name for herself as an up and coming model.

With all of these accolades it would be easy to change who you are for what everyone else thinks you should be. The most inspiring thing about Sofie is that her faith walk and morals have always been at the forefront of what she does. From the start she promised herself that she wouldn't fall in to these pressures, even putting it in all of her contracts. 

Sofie is no doubt a star in the making and I can't wait to see where it takes her!

What makes a small rural town able to THRIVE? Chris White, Managing Partner of White Law Office Co. in Millersburg, Ohio and I discuss these characteristics and so much more. 

Chris has focused on building the firm into a multi-location entity, expanding the firm’s practice areas, and adding skilled professionals to his staff. Whether it's from the law firm angle, the private equity angle (investing in rural communities), and/or the non-profit angle (creating opportunities in rural communities), Chris believes there is several ways to help communities thrive.

Isaac Mashman is a businessman, podcast host and public speaker. Originally from Jacksonville, Florida and hailing from a lower middle class home, he grew up seeing lack and limitation. This upbringing was what eventually led him to the idea of entrepreneurship. The ability to live a lifestyle of complete freedom, and the opposite of what he once knew was the solution to his problems. Over the span of several years, and nearly a dozen various business ideas, it was in 2020 that Isaac launched his company Mashman Ventures, a public relations firm that specializes in working with people who want to be followed, in-demand, and respected to build their personal brands.

Isaac’s intention behind everything he does is to strive to live up to his potential, while both documenting and demonstrating that it is in fact possible to go from nothing, to a whole lot of something.

He is the host of Chase the Vision with Isaac Mashman, a business, self-development podcast.

The idea of starting a health club/gym in one of the poorest and unhealthiest regions of the country would probably be laughable to most, but not to Chase Jenkins. The 24 year old from Pomeroy Ohio walks us through the ups and down of running Uplift Fitness. From trying to find funding for close to two years, to now having over 300 monthly subscribers. Him and his wife Madi have big dreams and goals for themselves as well as the community. And they're not stopping any time soon! 

Chase grew up in the heart of Appalachia and graduated from Ohio University. While there he was delivering pizzas in a beat down car and holes in his shoes. This time in his life would turn out to be the reason for getting funding for his vision and dream. Buckle up, this one is good!
