The Secret Sauce to being an Entrepreneur | Pinky Cole | TEDxMorehouseCollege

Entrepreneur and Philanthropist Pinky Cole discloses how she became a successful entrepreneur in the vegan food industry by leading with compassion and empathy. Aisha “Pinky” Cole is the founder of one of the most prolific vegan restaurants in the nation that has galvanized vegan eating around the country. Born in East Baltimore, Maryland, Pinky is of Jamaican descent and the owner of the massively thriving plant-based business known as Slutty Vegan. Slutty Vegan was created while she was relaxing one evening in her bedroom craving for vegan junk food. She eagerly went into her kitchen and created the delicious non-meat masterpieces that are now always in high demand. What was originally a plan for a ghost restaurant beautifully exploded into a national phenomenon. She reminds everyone whom she encounters that nothing beats a failure but a try. As a restaurateur and philanthropist, Cole pours into her staff, community, and the students at Clark Atlanta University. Her charisma and GRIT have afforded her to receive several awards and also become a staple in the Atlanta restaurant community by increasing the need for healthy clean eating. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

    It's not our Power but it's the power of God that's in us, we have to thank him for all his praises.Because without him we wouldn't be Nothing, Nor have NOTHING. Congratulations to all your success and Confidence 💞💞 The Bible is clear that boasting is a sin. In (Proverbs 27:1, )We read, “Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.” This verse reminds us that we need to be careful about bragging about things that we haven’t even done yet.

    I love this interview. She definitely has a way with words. She is better at getting a message across than say, Oprah. Lol. I only say her because so many people from the previous era hung onto Oprah's every word (although now I think people are coming to their senses lol). But my point is, Pinky has that THING to make a connected impact on a large group with little to no pre-thought effort. Love it.
