Today on the We Are Made Podcast, Imani is joined by singer, songwriter B.Cloy. Born and raised in Havana, FL he first started singing in the choir at his local church. As his passion for singing and songwriting began to grow in high school, he decided that a career as an artist was what he wanted to pursue. But growing up in a small town made it difficult to envision a life beyond his environment and deep down he knew that he wanted more for himself. He quickly began to realize that the only possible way to make this dream a reality was by leaving. Introducing this week’s origin story, B.Cloy. Find B.Cloy and his work by clicking here.

Today on the We Are Made Podcast, Imani is joined by Liberian photographer and BYDESIGN co-founder, Muenfua Lewis. Originally born in Kansas City, he didn’t discover his passion for photography until his later years in college. Due to the lack of reflections in his immediate environment, it wasn’t until after joining the corporate world that he realized a creative outlet is essential. A personal project turned idea would soon allow him the space to build the community he longed for and tell the stories he wanted to hear. Introducing this week's origin story, Muenfua Lewis.

Today on the We Are Made Podcast, Imani is joined by JMO’s SneauxBall founder, Jarrette Maloy. After growing up in a family of elected officials and playing baseball for majority of his upbringing, he placed importance on maintaining a relationship with the community. When his dream of making it in the major leagues took a turn, he redirected his focus to starting a youth development program. Only issue was, he needed money. To help raise funds he started with a small snow cone station at a local apartment complex, as the business began to expand he soon went on to purchase a trailer, then shortly after he opened his very own first brick and border. The once goal of creating impact has turned into a greater business that serves the people he had always wished to touch.
