In this powerful episode of the Raw Success Podcast, host True Khepra sits down with Tory Kei, better known as Hip Hop’s Personal Trainer. Tory’s journey is one of overcoming adversity, transforming pain into purpose, and building a movement that blends health and culture.
Growing up in a hardworking household that faced health and financial struggles, Tory experienced challenges that could have derailed her future.

Now, Tory is the creator and host of Health & Hip Hop, a platform dedicated to bringing wellness back into hip hop culture while showing busy artists and entrepreneurs that health is the true foundation of success.
