Summary

Two-time Emmy and three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald, interviewed J Hackett.

Proving that it’s not how you start it’s how you end, J Hackett is the founder and board chair of Black Wall Street AVL, the owner of GRIND - Asheville’s first Black-owned coffee shop, #1 fastest growing startup in WNC, and the #3 best coffee shop in the state of NC -, and a formerly incarcerated convict. He galvanizes his experiences as both an African American man and an ex-con to empower both the community and budding African American entrepreneurs alike in and around the Asheville area. He also provides advice for ex-cons on how to successfully integrate back into society, so if you or anyone you know is looking to exit the prison system, then this is the episode for you. Curious? Then tune in today for another educational episode of Money Making Conversations Master Class!
