We’ve all done it — kept a little too much stuff that we just couldn’t part with, but didn’t know what to do with either. Then something happens and we’re suddenly willing to PAY someone to just take it all away.
But what if it’s still useful? Or means something? Or even if we can’t use it anymore, someone could — but you just don’t know who? We’ve all been there, and Josh Rainey has known more than a few people who have been there too. He’s local co-owner and Business Development Manager of JunkLuggers of Charlotte, a junk removal company with a soft heart and a green mind. Welcome, Josh!

But what she really wanted to do as a kid was become a pediatric cardiologist, like the ones who saved her life after she was born with a congenital heart defect.

Stereotypes aren’t good for anybody, and usually the best way
to dispel them is to start a conversation… and present something different.
Our guests on the BrandBuilders Podcast didn’t like the way young African-American men were being portrayed in popular media, and set out to present — even create — a different picture. That’s how Tammy and John Martin started the Young Black Leadership Alliance, and it’s making a difference.
