We talk about the journey of grinding for your craft, what it's like to have free time after 15 months of hustling, and the process of doing the inner work and healing. The self reflection and vulnerability Ralph brought was next level, and made the conversation a powerful moment to capture and to be a part of!

In this episode we're eating Texas style burritos in Compton with Kani and discussing community. Kani is an organizer, and the founder of Peace of Mind Compton, a community hub and space.

He's got a powerful vision and a deep love, and he's putting in the time for his community.
Today is a really special episode, because it's somebody who, in our community is super hallowed in Eayikes, she is compassion personified, unconditional love personified, and wisdom personified - Auntie Esther.
