27: (Best Of) Humor, Hustle, & Healing The Founder's Journey No One Talks About

This week on AND This, we’re diving deep into the messy, magical, and ever-evolving journey of building a business and building yourself. From starting your first hustle to finding your voice in a noisy world, this episode reminds us that your first move isn’t your forever move—and that’s the beauty of it. Jasmene brings together real talk from founders and visionaries who are choosing purpose over pressure. You’ll hear lessons on embracing trial and error, building brands that scale beyond you, and staying true to your voice even when the blueprint says otherwise. Whether it's ditching the idea of being polished 24/7 or realizing that entrepreneurship can be both comedy and calling, this episode gives permission to take up space, evolve publicly, and do it on your own terms. It’s not just about the business—it’s about who you’re becoming along the way. If you’ve ever felt torn between going big and going home, this one’s for you.  KEY POINTS:  - 14: Ultimate Social Media Strategies for 2025 - 16: How To Build Generational Wealth (Financial Empowerment) - 18: Building a Brand That People Actually LOVE - 20: How Ashley Adana Built an Event Empire in a Male-Dominated Industry - 22: Leading While Bleeding: Hidden Struggles of Building a Movement w/ Carmen Jones - 23: Marcus Y.
