  • Episode 109: "Doing business in the Motherland"
    One of my life goals is to own a few businesses in the Motherland.  
    I grew up eating chin chin, suya, stock soup, goat meat, fufu, and breaking the Kola nut at every major celebration (My two best friends are Nigerian). 
    African Americans were robbed of ever truly knowing where exactly we came from in Africa by the cruelty of slavery, but that hasn't stopped my love and desire to return and invest in the continent from which my DNA originated.  
    Ikechukwu Igbo (one of my two best friends) has already moved backed to Africa (Contour Functional Art) and started a business with a few friends, so it was a must that I have him on the Podcast to discuss his experience so far.  
    If you have ever thought of living and/or doing business in the Motherland, you will absolutely enjoy this interview.

  • Episode 107: "Cooking with Sweetness"
    It's funny how as you get older, you start picking up some of the weird hobbies you use to laugh at your parents for being into, like gardening, yard work, and my recent one...becoming an amateur chef.  
    After months of hinting, then full on begging, I was able to get Sweetness (AKA my wife Kelley Washington) on the Podcast.  
    Sweetness is my teacher and damn good one.  
    I have watched her over and over throughout the years take an interest in learning how to prepare a specific dish most would consider complex and difficult, and after a few tries, have everyone around her begging her to make it again.  
    She truly has a gift. 
    In this episode we discuss:
    How she inherited that gift from her two grandmothers
    How her mother Jedi mind tricked her into learning
    Why she enjoys cooking
    The process she uses for creating her own recipe
    The influence of African culture on our beloved southern cuisines

  • Episode 105: "The Finance Femme"
    Many people have heard the statistic that something like 80% of businesses fail in the first 5 years. 
    This is mostly due to the inability to generate enough sales to pay all the bills.  
    What few people know is that something like 80% of businesses also fail in years 5 through 10, after they have proven they can generate sales. 
    Why?
    They don't track, manage, or invest the money they make well.  
    This where my guest, Kendra, and her team bring value.
    She is CEO of The Finance Femm, a company that provides outsource CFO services to small and medium sized businesses.  
    In this episode we discuss:
    The basic building blocks on a profit and loss statement
    A simple system for organizing your business finances
    How to know when it's time to hire an outsourced CFO
    The benefits of freeing up your time to do more of what you do best as a business owner
