Living Life Juicy is a Podcast and YouTube Channel where I interview people from all different industries, positions, and perspectives who remain present and kind as they do great things.

In reality, it’s just a great excuse for me to talk with people I find interesting and who I think you need to know more about. From people in the movie industry to the last ringmaster from the largest circus. From an Imagineer to a restauranter. Actors, facilitators, entrepreneurs, and coaches. Wilderness guides and corporate leaders. In these interviews, we explore identity, transitions, and other topics that relate to all of us.

We continue this in season 4. We chat with the chief playmaker from the Beach Play Company. The leader of Grand Dynamics, a person who lives his life as a lab from an organization that puts on amazing corporate events. A corporate “head hunter” who also encourages business leaders to find the adventure in what they do, and an insurance executive who left the corporate world to build a housekeeping enterprise.

We will also chat with artists, entrepreneurs, and community theater leaders who is also a realtor and local politician. There may even be a few surprises mixed in.

Innovative entrepreneur and all-around amazing person Jeannie Kim turns the tables on host John Losey and asks him 3 insightful questions about leadership and making an impact on society.

View Details

Jeannie always had a dream to be in service to the community. Jeannie’s family immigrated from Korea to start a new life, opening a restaurant in San Francisco, where Jeannie experienced the life of an entrepreneur at age 12. Years later, after receiving her Master of Divinity from San Francisco Theological Seminary (SFTS), she was pressed into taking over the family business to make ends meet as a single mother while she remained active in ministry. With no business background, she operated the restaurant like a church, caring for people and building relationships to become an award-winning 4-4.5 Star beacon in the San Francisco Mid-Market District. “I’ve never left the ministry. It took on a different form,” reflects Kim, who says she thinks of herself as providing pastoral care to her customers and employees, listening to their stories, and “feeding their souls.” Her entrepreneurship continued in the opening of the Fermentation Lab in Mid-market SF, Divine Indulgence Catering, and, most recently, work in the wine industry in Napa. In 2020, Jeannie earned the Distinguished Alumni Award from San Francisco Theological Seminary and now serves on both the Board of Trustees of the University of Redlands and the Board of Directors of SFTS. She also serves on the Mid-market Central Benefit District SF board and recently joined SF Farm Bureau.
