With the series of brutal and senseless murders and police brutality against black men and women across America, I am struggling to find the right words.

There are protestors, riots, violence, and gaslighting from political leaders that has left the nation enraged frustrated, in despair, and ready for change.

I stand in protest with my black brothers and sisters. I honor the names of some of the black men and women that have been slain by police violence and victims of hate crimes.

The broken system of racial injustice needs to be dismantled piece by piece by piece.

I'm offering my podcast as a platform for anyone who needs their story to be heard.

If you or a friend has a story to share, please reach out to me at 470.242.6311 or find me everywhere here: linktr.ee/allison__hare

EP60 RE-RELEASE: Simple Ways to Solve a BIG Problem with Jasmine Crowe of Goodr

[fusebox_track_player url="https://episodes.castos.com/5e3aa627bb42e8-95594950/EP60-Jasmine-Crowe-Interview-disclaimer.mp3" artist="Allison Hare - Culture Changers Podcast" title="Simple Ways To Solve BIG Problems: Jasmine Crowe of Goodr" social_twitter="true" social_facebook="true" social_linkedin="true" social_pinterest="true" social_email="true" ]

Could solving the world's BIGGEST problems have a simple answer? Millennial Entrepreneur Jasmine Crowe is the Founder and CEO of Goodr and she is executing a plan to end hunger. Yup, you read that right. In this time of the global pandemic, Goodr stepped up immediately and has tirelessly been out front and providing food for those affected the most.

Goodr is an Atlanta-based social impact startup leveraging technology to reduce food waste and end hunger. Backed by an amazing group of venture funds and angel investors, they have been featured by national press outlets like Forbes, Inc., CNBC, and Oprah Winfrey Network.

Jasmine Crowe talks about how she created Goodr, how it works, the ways in which she overcame the odds and raised funding for Goodr, and the impact that it is making for hunger, global climate change and effectively solving some of the world's biggest problems.

3 Key Points

  1. Goodr raised $1.1 million dollars when only 2% of venture capital goes to women-owned businesses, and less than half of that for women of color.
  2. 27% of everything in our landfills today is food, which is the largest single source, a 50% increase from 40 years ago.
  3. As food waste sits, it rots and it produces methane gas which is the number 2 contributor to global climate change.

Tweetable Quotes:

  • (Goodr) “We are a tech-enabled food waste management company and we are leveraging technology to combat hunger and reduce food waste. I’ve been working on it since late 2016. I officially launched it in January 2017.” –Jasmine Crowe
  • “I think a lot of people have really great ideas, but lack the execution, and I made a to-do list. Like, this is step 1, step 2, this is the name, get the Facebook page.” –Jasmine Crowe
  • “I found out that my good friend was experiencing hunger. I think that was like, you know what, you got to do this, no matter what. It was an eye-opener for me because I can’t tell you how many times, she has been out in the streets feeding people with me.” –Jasmine Crowe

EP62: Let's Get Metaphysical: Kelley Knight of Modern Mystic

[fusebox_track_player url="https://episodes.castos.com/5e3aa627bb42e8-95594950/EP61-Kelley-Knight-CC-Interview-Final.mp3" artist="Culture Changers Podcast" title="EP62: Let's Get Metaphysical: Kelley Knight of Modern Mystic" social_twitter="true" social_facebook="true" social_linkedin="true" social_pinterest="true" social_email="true" permalink="https://allisonhare.com/62" tweet_text="Listen to this amazing episode about spirituality on Culture Changers Podcast" hashtag="culturechangers" twitter_username="allison__hare" ]

How often do you consider metaphysical explanations when the world seems upside down?

In this time, when the world seems to be spinning off its axis and all the life maps have mysteriously been thrown out, I thought it was a good time to revisit this conversation with Kelley Knight, the magnetic CEO and founder of wildly successful Modern Mystic Shop.

Host Allison Hare talks to Kelley Knight, CEO, Founder, and Owner of Modern Mystic Shop, a female-founded resource for intentionally made, small-batch metaphysical goods and services in Atlanta, Georgia. Kelley Knight talks about what brought her into embracing her spiritual journey, integrating her spiritual life and her business life, ways to elevate as a society, and what it means that we are now entering into the Aquarian Age.

Episode Highlights:

  • Allison Hare introduces Kelley Knight.
  • Kelley Knight explains who she is and how she got where she is today.
  • How did her marketing ideas come to her?
  • How did you start Modern Mystic?
  • Kelley talks about entering the Aquarian Age.
  • Allison Hare talks about a highly successful reading she had with Kelley Knight.
  • Kelley discusses normalizing spirituality and balancing that with business.
  • Who does her dad represent in her psyche?
  • What does it take to be open to a spiritual transition?
  • Many millennials are going to spiritual readers as opposed to therapists.
  • How has her business changed and grown?
  • How does she remain generous with her time and productive at the same time?
  • What does the world need right now?
  • What are her current goals?
  • Kelley Knight talks about how her mind works with making connections and her book “Spells for the Modern Mystic”: A Ritual Guidebook and Spell-Casting Kit.
  • What is next for her and how can people reach out for her services?
  • Kelley discusses how the impact and expansion have been for Modern Mystic.

3 Key Points

  1. First healing and then honing are the steps that led Kelley Knight to strengthening her intuition abilities.
  2. Normalizing spirituality takes discernment, self-regulation, and analyzing the ways we have associated spirituality with religion in the past.
  3. Kelley’s big spiritual awakening happened in 2012 when she began seeing dead people and the Aquarian Age began.

Tweetable Quotes:

  • “I believe that the best way that I can be impactful is to fill a space, to scan the horizon and see where there is a need that my gifts and talents align with and fill that need, as opposed to creating something and making people come to you.” –Kelley Knight
  • “I think that’s why I’m a good tarot reader is because I can see all of the cards and all of the pieces laid out and then it clicks in very quickly how they all work together, and that is how my mind is working with marketing too.” –Kelley Knight
  • “Everyone has their own Spidey sense or super sense, right? So, the more that we normalize it and we make it not special, the more that people are going to use it, and the more that we can use it to work together and be together.” –Kelley Knight
