Media personality and entrepreneur Angela Yee stopped by this week and we had A GOOD TIME. Angela Yee currently co-hosts Power 105.1’s nationally syndicated and award-winning radio show The Breakfast Club as well as her popular podcast, Angela Yee’s Lip Service. She owns the Juices For Life juice bar in Brooklyn, NY, has a line of organic pressed juices called Drink Fresh Juice, and recently co-founded Coffee Uplifts People (CUP)—a majority Black-owned coffee company with a brick and mortar location in Brooklyn. In 2018, the New York City mayor officially designated August 28th as Angela Yee Day, now an annual community event spotlighting local Black-owned businesses. Additionally, Yee launched the Angela Yee’s Book Club literacy initiative with WellRead, which showcases authors with unique stories to tell. Her two-decade career has solidified her as this generation’s “go-to” media personality. With her finger on the pulse of hip-hop, culture and business, Angela Yee is indeed a multi-hyphenate in every sense. Angela told me about her experience switching schools as a kid and how the racism of her classmates ultimately made her decide to leave. She told me a story about her boss asking her to have sex with him, and when she declined, was fired a few days later. We talked about shame, the ups and downs of friendships, insecurity and how she ultimately got revenge on that former boss of hers…For more about the podcast and to continue our conversation, you can find me: https://www.instagram.com/jadeiovine/ Executive Producer Nick StumpfProduced by Catherine LawEdited and Engineered by Brandon Dickert Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
