Okay. Let's get straight to it. Relationships can be insanely difficult to navigate, especially when going through stages of personal transition. You have those friends that seem to be asked on dates every weekend, those that have been in faithful relationships since Kindergarten, and then those stuck in the middle, simply trying to figure out what to eat for dinner. On this episode, we explore the popular hashtag #RelationshipGoals with power couple Emmanuel and Olamide Grace, including the pros and cons of a relationship in your twenties, and everything social media doesn't see. Emmanuel and Olamide Grace are a young, fashionable couple that have been together for almost three years. As a mental health counselor (Olamide) and a Stand-Up Comedian/Entertainment Personality (Emmanuel) they combine for an amazing duo, enjoying partner activities like dancing, cooking and traveling!

104: Passion to Purpose W/Side Hustle Pro & Line Cook Kevin Yoo
Sometimes our day jobs do little for us inspirationally outside of helping us pay our bills and keep us financially stable. It can be difficult to determine whether or not you should grind it out at your 9-5 or quit to pursue your real passion. Well Korean-American millennial and working Chef Kevin Yoo has found his niche with side hustles on his journey to being a Master Chef. As a business professional by day and a chef at one of the most pristine Chicago restaurants by night, Kevin pulls from experiencing the joys of cooking as a young boy to help maintain and build his dreams of being a chef while transitioning from college into the working world. Kevin discusses everything from his restaurant owning dreams, to starting out at a restaurant buss boy in order to reach that ultimate goal. Whether Kevin's story of the grind makes you hungry for ambition, or a juicy burger, we encourage you to soak in all you can from Kevin’s journey of fostering a true side hustle while keeping a full time job!! Who knows, maybe you’ll see him at Girl and the Goat 🐐during your next reservation 👀!! As always, follow us on IG @1159YGTPodcast, @Mizz_jazz, and @Kenyattasacha!!
