Entrepreneurship is often described as a journey—one that begins with an idea, grows through perseverance, and evolves with each new generation of leadership.

In this episode of From Here to There®, host Daphne Bryson Jackson sits down with three dynamic women whose professional journeys are deeply connected to the entrepreneurial legacies of their families.

Mori Russell Atkins, Inez Daniels, and Kristen Barnett represent the next generation of leaders carrying forward family businesses that have built lasting impact across industries. While each woman grew up witnessing entrepreneurship firsthand, they have also forged their own paths—launching ventures, building expertise, and redefining leadership in their own right.

Together, they share what it means to inherit a legacy while creating a vision for the future, the lessons learned from the generations before them, and the responsibility of guiding businesses through a new era of growth and innovation.

Their stories remind us that entrepreneurship is never a straight line. It’s a journey shaped by mentorship, resilience, and the courage to move forward while honoring where you began.

Because every generation of leaders must decide how they will carry the torch—and where the journey will go next.

From Here to There® We'll meet you at the next intersection.
