Work In Progress

Since I'm currently on a family vacation in Vermont, I decided to repost one of my favorite episodes from 2018 in case any new listeners haven't heard this one. 

“Instead of dropping out, you’re actually dropping into something”

I interviewed Leann Abad and Sarah Grosz for the podcast and they explained that dropping out of college was not about disconnecting from education.

Rather it was a way for them to further their education in their respective fields.

For Leann, that meant dropping out to work on his startup Ashe media.

For Sarah, that meant moving across the country to work full-time as a growth hacker BAMF media.

The stigma behind college drop outs being lazy or unmotivated could not be further from the truth.

In some ways I envy those who have dropped out of college.

Because going against the grain of what society has deemed “the right choice” to pursue the unknown takes courage.

But, more importantly it takes #selfawareness and as young people that’s what we should be chasing down more than anything.

Brema Brema is one of the founding members of the Urban Misfit Ventures and an overall badass creative. 

Brema grew up in a refugee camp in Sudan and with the help of the United Nations he and his family were able to move to the United States. 

Initially, he didn't fit in and was bullied at school.

But rather than use that negative energy in a harmful way, Brema invested his focus into art. 

From negative -> positive.

Talking with Brema you can tell he's a humble guy but one look at his Instagram page @optic.legacy (currently at 58,000 followers) and you can see how talented he is in his work. 

Throughout the years, Brema has built up a portfolio of creative passions from skating -> graffiti -> clothing -> photography. Regardless his work is visually aesthetic and uniquely him. 

He is currently a creative director at the Urban Misfit Ventures and founder of his own clothing line @unfinishedlegacy. At only 20 years old, Brema was named one of Wisconsin's 25 Under 25 Rising Entrepreneurs.
