On the show, Jess catches up with her dear friend Afenya Montgomery, founder and CEO of The iCAN Collective, which is a creative space in Chicago designed for coworking, community, and content creation for black women. Afenya and Jess giggle and laugh a lot in this episode just catching up and sharing stories about how they feel like lifetimes have gone by since they first met in 2019. Spoiler alert, they do talk about how they've never actually met in person yet they've been each other's Instagram hype girls for years. Afenya shares her story of how she made the leap into entrepreneurship after making the hard decision to leave a career that she really loved. They talk about having faith that you always land on your feet, Afenya’s failing forward moments and a lot more in between. As you listen we hope it sparks joyful moments as you think about catching up with your old friend and reminiscing on how far you both have come.
