Dawn, can you tell me a little about your background? Like where you grew up and maybe went to school?
Dawn's Answer: Born in Harlem and raised in Queens. Attended PS 112 in Long Island
City, PS 147 and Sacred Heart in Cambria Heights and Martin Van Buren HS
in Bellerose. Graduated from Howard University.
Kamau: Who or what inspired you to take the leap of faith and go
into your health food and juice spot in South Jamaica Queens?
Dawn: My
corporate role of 16 years was eliminated and I was searching for
something new to do. I was also on a personal health journey, seeking
to decrease weight, blood pressure and doctor’s mention of
pre-diabetes.
I was inspired by Styles P the
rapper from the Lox to create my own. I saw a CNN news segment about him
establishing Juices For Life and I was motivated to try founding my own as well.
True story — our new store in BedStuy, Brooklyn is a former Juices For Life location.
Kamau's Question: What makes your business unique from other juicing and health spots?
