    What we grow up creating can shape everything we build next. In part one of this conversation on Business of the Beat, Kendra Bracken-Ferguson welcomes her longtime friend, creative collaborator, and business partner Jazz Smollett to explore the experiences behind her work as a designer, producer, television personality, and founder. The second of six siblings, Jazz shares stories of cross-country moves, family celebrations, and a mother who built furniture, sewed clothes, and taught her children to create what they needed. From homemade meals to the family table that anchored each new home, Jazz reflects on how resourcefulness and intentional togetherness shaped her approach to life. She also traces her path from childhood modeling and acting to studying theater at NYU, with experiences in Cape Town and Amsterdam expanding her understanding of art, identity, and storytelling. Along the way, she discusses finding confidence in her own education and recognizing the value of the Black writers and stories that informed her upbringing. It’s a personal conversation about family, friendship, and creating spaces where people feel seen. In part two, Jazz shares how those foundations became a career in television and a growing lifestyle brand. Find more shows like this on the Mean Ole Lion app. Follow, rate, comment, and share.

    What makes a business stand out in a crowded market? For Danni Fernino, it starts with the person behind the brand. On this episode of **Business of the Beat**, Kendra Bracken-Ferguson welcomes the entrepreneur and business owner behind **Visions from Neptune** for a candid conversation about building beauty and wellness brands, choosing the right partners, and recognizing what drives a founder beyond their original idea. Danni shares how growing up in a family of entrepreneurs shaped her independent spirit—and how the challenges of COVID shifted her focus toward helping small businesses thrive. She explains why a founder’s motivation, willingness to adapt, and commitment to the work are central to the partnerships she pursues. Kendra and Danni also explore the hard conversations that come with growth. From helping founders loosen their grip to making decisions that serve the company and the families it supports, Danni introduces her approach to “heart posture”: leading with care while being honest about what needs to change.

Stay for a lively rapid-fire round covering founder red flags, customer retention, trusting your gut, and the “inborn magic” Danni looks for in an entrepreneur.

    Building Success Without Losing Yourself

    Kendra Bracken-Ferguson welcomes Debbi Thomas, mindfulness coach and founder of Haven Inspired, for a conversation about self-awareness, challenging limiting beliefs, and making room for personal growth. Debbi shares her journey from recruiting—including helping others recognize their strengths at Meta—to creating meditation content that speaks directly to Black women. Now pursuing her master’s in counseling at Northwestern University, she reflects on how stepping into a new chapter has challenged old stories about her own capabilities. Together, Kendra and Debbi explore mindfulness beyond meditation: recognizing what you need, noticing how stress shows up in your body, and giving yourself permission to ask for help. They discuss journaling, faith, self-compassion, and the discomfort that can accompany meaningful change—especially when you’re balancing entrepreneurship, family, and your own well-being. Debbi also shares the meaning behind HAVEN: Healthy, Authentic, Vibrant, Empathetic, and Nourished. At the heart of her approach is a reminder that healing begins with being honest with yourself. Sometimes, the next step toward growth starts with acknowledging that you’re overwhelmed and allowing someone to support you.
