Paid In Passion: Recent Episodes
Joshua Utomwen
This platform was created to help direct the careers of teens and young adults. The people who are being interviewed are people who took advantage of the passions they had and turned them into something they could monetize. These desires were not more than just hobbies but now a source of income that made these activities even more worthwhile. We should find joy in the things we love to do without having to feel limited in the amount of time we devote to them. Hope you enjoy and stay tuned for much more to come!
Meet Ammishaddai Grand-Jean. For those who know him, when he speaks everyone listens. So it makes sense that he has become a keynote speaker who has spoken in front of thousands. However, his journey is one that many, if not all, of us can relate to. Sometimes you’re on the bench of life waiting so patiently to get in the game and receive the fruits of your labor. The wisdom and encouragement in this interview are unmatched. Did I mention he’s a soon-to-be award-winning author? You can hear a motivational speech or order your own copy of Benchwarmers: What To Do When You’re On the Bench of Life (link will be provided). Tune in and enjoy another episode of Paid In Passion. Let Your Passion Pay For You!

Meet Jalen Dunning, a 21-year-old firefighter with the Gwinett Fire Station. (IG: @jaaysaaucy) We've all wondered (or maybe just me) why firefighters are at so many scenes when 911 is called. I now see firefighting with a whole, new perspective thanks to Jalen sharing his knowledge and experiences. This is indeed the last episode of Season 1. I appreciate all my viewers, and definitely stay tuned with all Paid In Passion is bringing to offer. Remember to Let Your Passion Work For You.

Meet Jeffrey Hendricks, a first-year lawyer from Atlanta, GA. As many of these interviews have gone, there is so much more to each person than what their profession or degree entails. His passion for sports and academic success has given him the vision to be the next top-shelf sports agent, and I am very confident in his journey. Our conversation flows between topics of law school, his love for sports, and some things you will find out when you press play. One big thing I took out of our talk is how intentional you have to be when being yourself because that is the one thing no one can teach you how to do. Stay tuned for many more and continue to Let Your Passion Work For You!

Meet Godswill Nwankwo! (IG: @__willyy) He is currently a program manager at Google. I specifically use the word "currently" because you can see how big of a dreamer he is through our conversation. A great example of someone who understands that in order to make it to the highest of hills, you're going to have to pass through the lowest of valleys. So many great values are discussed throughout the video that is applicable to all people. With working in areas concerning your passions, have your mind on a goal, and throughout it all: keep going. I learned so much from this interview, and I just know you will too. This is what Paid In Passion is all about. Enjoy it, like it, share it, and enjoy it again : ) Thank you for listening to another episode of Paid In Passion, Let Your Passion Work For You

In this video, I spoke with the businesswoman, AKT (IG:@aktlovee). Her 3 main domains are hair, sneaker, and fashion. She turned these infatuations into different businesses. She either saw a need in her community that she then wanted to help relieve or turned a hobby into something with longevity. Make sure to check out her different pages with her different crafts (IG: @aktextensions, @sneakhercloset, @aktfits)! Hope you all enjoy it and look forward to the many more to come!
With the 5th episode, it is about time for the official introduction of Paid In Passion. Being a month since the official launch of the platform, this podcast is something I aspire to do longer than any job I could have. I've genuinely enjoyed every interview I have had so far, and I look forward to the hundreds to come. Side note: I am actually pretty good at this and all my old teachers were 100%- I am very talkative lol. Hope you guys enjoy this video and stay tuned for the many more to come. All your support has not gone unnoticed, and I truly appreciate all of you.
Meet Vanessa Alele (IG: @sheisefe). She is a personal and wardrobe stylist based in Atlanta, GA. This was a very fun interview, especially with us knowing each other for so many years. We talk about some of her greatest achievements and just her overall experiences in the fashion industry. Risks and bold steps have to be taken in order to reach places others have not.
