When I say this guest is special, you may be thinking that I keep saying it (it's true, and I feel so lucky to get to talk to all of these incredible people!), but Karee Upendo is truly an inspiration. This episode is a little on the shorter side, but I hope that you'll follow her on Instagram or TikTok where she's active, to get more from her, but I fully intend to do more with Karee in the future, because she is a powerful force and a great role model!
I don't want to spoil her story, but Karee did not have a typical childhood, but you know, that's why she has so much heart for what she's doing. She was a designer, she was a teacher, and now she's a farmer - an autistic black farmer, paving the way for the next generation, and showing them all that's possible if you believe in yourself.
