Get your tasty Ground Up PDX nut butter for 15% off with code (FEISWORLD): https://grounduppdx.com/ This episode is not sponsored by Ground Up PDX - just two friends chatting again after 13 years. In this interview with Carolyn Cesario, co-founder of Ground Up PDX, we delve into the inspiring journey of building a mission-driven company that empowers women in transition. Founded in 2016 alongside co-founder Julie Sullivan, Ground Up PDX creates gourmet nut butters while providing a transformative job training program for women overcoming homelessness. Carolyn shares insights into the unique flavors developed, such as Coconut Cardamom and Lavender Honey, and how the company has successfully expanded from local farmers' markets to major retailers like Whole Foods and Target. The conversation highlights the importance of collaboration with local nonprofits and influencers to amplify their impact and reach a wider audience.

I can't think of a better person to share this conversation with me than Tripti G. Chandorkar. I was blessed to have her as a colleague 17 years ago working in consulting. Our shared experiences bound us, and we are again creating something we both love for Xiang Li Art. In this conversation, we explore the beginning of working together on Xiang Li Art, building up the Etsy store filled with a variety of merch, and running art exhibitions (solo and group shows) at some of the most recognized museums in the state of MA and nationwide, such as Harvard Museums, Worcester Art Museum, and a local boutique event venue named JMAC. Through Xiang Li Art, we celebrate women (including the 3 of us) and women in Chinese history, namely the 200+ empressed paintings all using watercolor on silk by Xiang Li over 12 years (2012 - present). I once wondered if anyone would care, and if Xiang Li's art can truly speak to people who aren't as familiar with Chinese history. Together with Tripti, we discovered the shared experiences and interests with so many women, families, and friends we met along the way. Thank you for listening to any part of the conversation. I hope you'll share your learnings and reflections with us.

Perry is a mad multipotentialite misfit, you might say crazy, well perhaps in that Steve Jobs think different way. "Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes ... the ones who see things differently…" He was born in The Netherlands, famous for its liberal life, bikes and bulbs, and began working with his father on the market selling lampshades. He was industrious, getting up at first light every weekend to help his father in the business. Advising customers from all over and enjoying the work, the diversity of people, the fast-thinking, and connecting with clients - but he knew there must be more to life than this. You might say he had a light bulb moment.💡 Learn more: https://www.perryknoppert.art https://www.theoctopusmovement.org/ Learn more about Feisworld Livestream and Events, visit: https://www.feisworld.com/events/

Ben is a TV writer from Lexington, MA. Writing wasn't always the plan. First it was 'professional basketball player' (too short), then 'doctor' (too hard), then 'diplomat' (took a bad class in college and moved on, perhaps too quickly), and finally 'perpetual graduate student' (too expensive). Writing and comedy were always passions though; he just didn't realize they could be combined into an actual job until mid-college. Since moving to LA in 2012, he's worked on a range of shows -- spanning network, cable, and streaming. Most recently he served as a Co-EP on Hulu's "Only Murders In The Building." He's also written and directed a short film, "Meet Cute." Outside of writing, Ben enjoys rock climbing, sports, role-playing games, and relaxing with his girlfriend and their two cats (Fox and Scully).

Meet Yifat (pronounced "ee-fah-t", the "Y" makes the long "e" sound like in Yvonne) She is an entrepreneur that runs an engagement marketing business that helps entrepreneurs establish instant trust with their prospects. She's been in business for over 11 years, she does Krav Maga, loves geeky things, cooks spicy food, and is a traveler and adventurer, but also one who loves her sleep and strong coffee (which really doesn't go together, does it?). One of the first 100 people to be invited to Google+, Yifat has built her entire brand with one show on one platform that most people didn't even care about. Google hired Yifat and flew her around the world to train their own team and speak at their offices (which they hardly let a non-Googler do). She worked with the city of Austin, was featured on radio shows, big stages and live events... all because Yifat understands one thing: In our overly connected world, we are starving for connection. And when we provide that connection we are rewarded with referrals, loyalty and $$ Connect with Yifat: https://www.facebook.com/TheYifatCohen/ https://www.instagram.com/yifatcohenrocks/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realyifatcohen/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHtHKCMUdYv9TNQS5kGKSdg We used Restream to go live during the first release of this conversation on multiple social channel.
