TJ Roberts is a social entrepreneur with a for-profit business who uses coffee as a conduit for good in the inner city of Kansas City, Kansas.. His upbringing and experiences in life have given him many takeaways from growing up with a deformity and being the only black kid in an all-white community AND household. His harsh “reality check” card was dealt with the day he was born but his talents and self-belief never held him back from becoming a drummer, a D1 football player, and now a business owner! Taste the kindness from his own hands or just listen and let your taste buds dream, TJ creates a community with coffee!
TJ is a recurring guest and I value his insight on business, life, art, and culture. TJ’s business kinship cafe is also the venue where we have had the live #liveandcreate podcast events. In this episode, we talk about the vision behind this live event and what we have taken from it so far. We also wrestle with the question “Can you teach grit”. Wondering if you can help motivate those who don’t have the capacity to see hard situations through to the end. It’s a great episode enjoy
