Welcome to Renoites! I'm thrilled to announce some exciting news: the Reno News and Review has just released their Best of Northern Nevada edition, and I’m incredibly honored that Renoites has been voted Best Local Podcast.

A huge thank you goes out to every guest who has made this show special, and to everyone who voted for us in the poll—your support means the world.
In today’s episode, I’m excited to welcome Sky Jones, founder and owner of Rising for People Coffee. When I have entrepreneurs on the show, I love exploring what makes their businesses unique and the passion that drives their work. Sky and I discussed the importance of educating customers about her products, the benefits of ethical sourcing by cutting out middlemen, innovative social media strategies like influencer engagement, and much more.
