  Speaker 1: it is a big city, but it is also very

  Speaker 3: growing a lot.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I love that out there. Well, I mean,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: so let's go all the way back in time. What
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: is your earliest memory of coffee?
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, my god, my earliest No, of course, I grew
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: up with coffee. So now, my earliest memory with coffee
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: was with my grandmother, because I remember they My mother
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: wouldn't allow me to drink coffee when I was a kid.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I'm talking about kid, like five years old, six years old,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: and I used to love love going to my grandmother's
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: house because she could always give me coffee. And so
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: her house she had ten kids and a lot of grandkids,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: so her house was twenty four to seven open, so
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: we should have breakfast, lunch, and then the afternoon table
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: would we always sat up with coffee and little like
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: she's Brazilian sheese bread. I don't know if you're familiar
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: with those, so cheese bread and cakes and French spaghette
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: and butter, and so my grandmother she was if we
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: had a if I had a cold or so oat
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: coffee with butter, it's great, and it really does. It's
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: really good. So that's that's my memory was going to
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: my grandmother's house and just to drink coffee.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: That I love that. Yeah, I mean I didn't get
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: I love the smell of coffee when I was younger
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: because my dad Woul always brewed at the house. Sometimes
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: some teachers, depending on who it was, would do it
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: at their inside the classroom, and I always love the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: smell of it. But yeah, once I actually got to
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: taste it, I was like, oh, no, thank you. But
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: then it you know, Mike, I got the acquired taste
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: as you is you have to do I think you
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: do with coffee, and then obviously once you get better coffee,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: then you realize, oh, okay, I could drink this black.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: I don't need to mask us or anything else.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Oh it makes a difference. And that's and that's what
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: I tell people about my coffee. I say, please, do
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: not put cream, do not put sugar. You don't need anything.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: It's sweet, it's flavorful for it's uh light not lighting caffeine.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: People think it's light in keffeine. Sometimes it's like, oh,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: that's too much coffee. Well as a kid, yeah.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Well I read as your your journey to this coffee
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: company started, like you said in Brazil, and then you
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: went to New York and ended up here in Texas.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Tell us about your background there, because it's it's very interesting.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Well, so my background is jewelry. I'm a jewelry designer.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: I grew up in a fashion industry. I used to
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: be a model, and but and the jewelry, and it's
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: something that I love and I'm trying to connect both
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: of them because coffee is so fashionable right now. It's
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: it became this big movement, and it's healthy and gives
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: you energy. And I'm a menopause so get tired of
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: the time. All the time I sought coffee was a
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: perfect blend into my business.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: I always wanted to work with coffee.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Actually, actually I wanted to uh uh sell coffee and
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: import coffee. I started thinking about that in two thousand
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: my team I went, I visited a friends farm in
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Brazil and I stayed there for a couple of weeks
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: and I said, okay, I want to I want to
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: work with coffee. I got so passionate about hear them
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: talking about planting and seeing all the pictures, and then
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: I went was the time of the Brazil we called Floriada.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Is when you have the.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Snow of my town, my state, which is all that.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you've had opportunity to see it,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: but it's.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: The trees are.
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: Covered in white flowers and it's so beautiful, the fragance,
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: it's everything is it's beautiful. And I just said, Okay,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: this is what I.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Want to do. I want to work with coffee. So
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: that was in twenty nineteen.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Then we had the COVID, so of course I didn't
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: move forward with that, and I was My first plan
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: was to work with the coffee from this friends farm,
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: and but then I visited other places and I noticed
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: it's a man's world, right, it's yes. So I found
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: this co op that they started ten years ago to
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: work with women, and they have women farmers and they
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: started ten years ago. They are educating them and uh,
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: they go to classes, they are doing courses and they
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: have they're they're doing their own farms. So I said,
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: forget about the guy's coffee. I want to gross coffee
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: because women are very meticulous, right women are. We can
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: be annoying and.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: I will never put it that way, but yeah we can.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: So so I visited and tried their coffee and I
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: said Okay, that's what I want to do. I want
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: to bring the coffee from my state and not not
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: out of not out of exclusion.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Men's coffee are great too, but I'm.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Very competitive, so so I said, okay, I'm gonna bring
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: an amazing coffee. And we partnered with a farmer over
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: there and she's amazing.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: So but that but yeah, that's how I started.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: I love that because again, you don't hear much about
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: women's farmers when it comes to I mean, you don't
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: even in the wine world. I don't hear it very much,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: but you definitely don't hear it in the coffee world.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: So but I've definitely heard that the beans, depending on
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: where you're getting it from, can be very i'll say regulated,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: but also patrolled and maybe even like not taken care
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: of because they might be stolen or whatever. But I
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: love that you're not having that issue with this co op.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, no, no, not at all.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: And they are very well respected. And also I roast
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: my coffee in San Antonio.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, so.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: There is this roast, this family business. They opened in
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: the nineteen I think seventies, their grandfather and out there
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: like there are third generations. So it's like the father
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: and the uncle with the younger kids. One of them
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: is a matter of fact, when she squit my daughter
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: and so he's twenty six years old and he's they're
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: running the business, and I asked if they could do
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: my if they could roast my coffee, and they said yes.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know if they roast for other people. But
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: it's called What's brewing? And I say their name with
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: a big pride because they're doing an amazing job and
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: so it's fresh.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Of course, my business is small.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: I'm just starting, so I'll call them and I'll say, okay,
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: just roast twenty more bags, thirty more bags. So it's
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: been having coffee roasted every week, my sheep, it's it
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: was just just roasted.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: It's very fresh.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: How has the reception been since you started the business?
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: So far, so good.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: So I took advantage that I know so many people
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: through my business, so I started I started, uh showing
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: to my clients and giving them to try. So I got,
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: you know, follower from my jewelry business.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: And now I'm I'm.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: You know, my clients are buying my coffee. So people
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: that are already new but at the same time I
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: did a when I did a soft launch, which was
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: last year in Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: I forget.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Everything's okay, it happens.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: It'sopause. But so I had that there and it was
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: a huge success.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Like we did.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: We did from eleven to three at the Pro. The
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: stories at the Pro it's called Niche. She has she's
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: she's kind of like anthropology. When they started, they had
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: a lot of interesting things from all over. So she
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: has her store has many different things, and she started
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: carrying my coffee. She also carries my jewelry, and she
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: sells mostly to tourists. So that was a good for me.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: It was a good thing to see people from other
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: parts of the country, people that had never seen me before.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: So I was just I was just making the coffee
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: there and serving to them, and we sold in a
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: couple of hours. We sold like sixty bags.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Whoa.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was it was crazy and just and was
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: uh the weather wasn't beautiful at the beginning. It was
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: just a few hours. But and I've got reorders from
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: the people that was there.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: They were there so from different parts of the country.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: That's huge. I mean, that's I mean, that's the best
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: thing to do is those tastings, because once they get
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: it in their mouths, I think they call it SIPs
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: to lips basically, and that's when your sales are gonna
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: start really hitting. Because you could talk up the bag,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: you can have them smell it, do all that, but
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: they have to actually taste it themselves. And once they
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: taste it and they enjoy it. Everybody loves coffee. I
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: mean not everybody, most everybody loves coffee, so like yea,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: so they're going to take it home. And again, if
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: it's let's say, they don't like it all the way through,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: it's just one bag, it's not that big of a
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: deal if you're a coffee person. But again, you're getting
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: so many people coming back and saying, I love this
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: and they want more, and obviously they're probably telling their
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: friends the same thing.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Yes, And that's what my main idea was when I started.
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: Even my daughter she kept asking me, what is your
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: business plan? Mom?
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: What's your business plan?
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: I said, I don't have a business plan right now.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: My plan is to do a brand awareness. I want
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: people to try. I want to see if it's gonna
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: you know, maybe they're not gonna like it.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: So I wanted to, and I wanted to every season
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: to highlight a different farmer. So I'm going to go
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: to Brazil soons to visit different and other farmers. So
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: I kept but this one that i'm working now, I
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: plan on keeping her, but adding others because that one
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: she already bought her followers. But the thing is, I've
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: been on the jewelry business for over twenty years, right,
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: so I have a lot of experience. I do wholesale retail,
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: and I started. I used to work in banking in
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: New York. After September eleventh, I said that day, I
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: said I'm going to do what I love because.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: We're all going to die.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: And I quit the bank and I started making jewelry
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: and selling on the street on Soho West Houston Street
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: on the weekends. So my friends from bank, they were like, oh,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: you're a peddler now, But that's how I started baby steps,
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: you know, And I know every part of the business
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: on my on the jewelry industry. Now I sell. I
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: want a wholesale but I don't know. If you watch
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Desperate Housewives, they had my jority there in almost every episode.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: I read that yeah, yeah, and I started with a
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: little table on the street. So with the coffee, I'm
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: doing the same thing. I'm following the same recipe. I'm
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: just doing starting small and I want the word of mouth.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: And for me, the most important thing is so I
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: have on my jewelry business. I have clients that are
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: with me since I started, Like they've seen my daughter
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: grow up and now she's graduating from dental school next
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: a couple of months. So my client, thank you. But
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: my clients, they have seen all of that. They've been
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: with me my entire journey, and they come back and
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: they like it and they want more of the jewelry.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: And I want the same thing with the coffee. Yeah,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: I want to see if they're coming back. That's how
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: good enough they like it? Yeah, because if they buy
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: one time, they might be helping me. But the thing
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: is the continuation.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: Yep, Yeah they can. They'll continue to support you, and
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: then obviously, like you said, they'll be on the journey
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: of what you're going through and what you're doing, and
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: especially if you're starting to really highlight other farmers as
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: well in other areas. I think that's fantastic.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: Yes, I'm I'm I'm little by little, you know, I
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: want just one little chrome at a time.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Well, like I mean, like you said, you got to
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: start that. You're basically starting on the on the corner again,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: so you know, but obviously you still have the fantastic
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: jewelry company to work with as well. But now you're
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: just starting on the on the sidewalk again, but with coffee.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, And and I had my jewelry business I
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: had with my husband. He was my business partner, and
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: we moved from New York here and we build the
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: business together. He passed away. He got sick, and he
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: passed away in twenty three, so.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: It's going to be three years now.
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: So the coffee is my it's it's my baby, it's

• 16:35
  Speaker 3: you go to anybody's house, and it's not because now
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: it's in fashion like it's always been that way. They'll
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: ask you, do you want a cafe asino, which is
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: a little coffee. Always you go to anybody's house. First
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: thing they offer you to make you feel comfortable, to
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: make you feel welcome. It's the first thing you're a
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: cafe ino.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: So it's it's.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: Almost like I'm inviting people to my life, like I
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: just I feel I think it's a connection.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: And now I see how.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Beautiful the young generation, how they like coffee, and it's
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: just such a.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: New generation.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: I think they're just so honest and true to themselves.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: It's different from my generation, right, and I love to
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: be part of that generation.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Somehow.
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: I feel like when we did the soft lunge of
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: the coffee, I felt younger, like I was talking to
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: those young kids and they and they're also excited about
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: the industry.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, I do think the youngest or the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: younger generation, they're enjoying it in a different way too,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: like they're yes, it's part of their morning routine or
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: maybe midday routine of you know, like you said, a
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: little more caffeine or a little more energy. But there's
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: also that coffee has always had that wonderful thing of
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: just building a community where you can just sit down
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: with somebody and catch up or meet them for the
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: first time or whatever, or even have like a business
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: meeting or whatever. It is, but like that center is
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: that coffee, and then we're all we all can enjoy
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: the same thing at the same time.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: Yes, and it and it's it's so fascinating to me
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: how things are all going back to how it used
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: to be, so we think, like everything people got connected
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: for a while, and a lot of them still are disconnected.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: But I feel that young generation they are connected. And
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: I see all those coffee shops. Now they have those
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: what is it called rave?
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Is it rave?
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Where they all go and they dance, they have k Yeah,
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: I want to go to one of them. I know
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: they have in Austin, So I want to go pretty
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: soon to one of those because I think it's incredible
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: that they are not drinking alcohol. I feel bad for
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: the alcohol industry because now they're not right.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: It's it's different, that's for sure. So I've been in
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: the distribution side of it for sixteen years now, and unfortunately,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of them are still resting on
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: the laurels of the old times. And I'm just like, no,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: that's like as somebody who not only is working in
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: the industry, but I do this podcast, so I'm lucky
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: enough to talk to so many different people on all
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: sides of the spectrum when it comes to the alcohol world,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: and they're all seeing that, yes, not off is becoming
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: a huge thing obviously, like the tac and everything has
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: become a huge thing as well. It's just every state's
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: different obviously when it comes to that. But like, the
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: non alcoholic world is becoming so much bigger, and like
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: you can't deny. Like I just read an article that
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: since George Clooney and I think it was Sidney Crawford's
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: husband sold cost some egos, now they're investing in a
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: non alcoholic beer. So that's obviously proof that that world
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: is so much bigger. So you have, but there's still
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: always gonna be people drinking, Like that's just.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: Oh, yes, I know. I love my wine. I drink
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: my glass of wine every night.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I love everything except for gin. Unless you can make
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: it into a nice cocktail. I'll drink anything, so thank.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: You very much. Me too. I can't. I can't drink gin.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: It's not it's not my favorite. Yeah, I won't for
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: that one first.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think being like a broke teenager. Yeah, I
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: drank gin and wasn't good.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: It wasn't a good experience. I don't want to go
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: back there.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: If anybody's just drinking straight gin, I think they have
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: real problems.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: Yes, Now, the martine Espress martini is delicious.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: I just so I saw that on your Instagram. I
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: love that you're actually making that. You put that recipe
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: on there. I mean that drink is every woman loves
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: that drink, so.
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: It is so good.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so what do you what do you do different
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: in yours? Obviously put your coffee in it, but how
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: do you when you put that recipe online?
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Uh, it's the make with expresso, okay, right, like a
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: shot of espresso, and then there's this, uh the coffee.
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: It's yeah, it's like a coffee drink. It's coffee alcohol
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: like a coffee. I don't know, yes, yes, and I
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: think that's what makes a difference. I just I just
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: haven't gotten the pham I want to make because whenever
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: I drink outside, they have this thick foam and I'm
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: if you know how to do it, to let me
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: know because I want to.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: I want to make with routhor. Yeah, I don't know.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I had an ax that was very into making coffee
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: at home, and so she always had the frothing machine
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: and so I imagine that might be what it is, but
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: again they might. I've actually seen it to where they
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: make the phone and they do it in the whole
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: like foam gun thing too.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: So it's yeah, and you know, back about going back
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: to how things used to be. So you know that
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: all the espresso machines and the technology and the pods
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: and everything is so big. But now with the pour over,
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: that's how my grandmother used to make and the smell
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: through the whole house in the morning when you pour over,
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: and that's how people are doing now. You know, they're
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: enjoying things that are so simple. It's I think for
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: over is the most simple way of making coffee. But
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: then they can just get the center and do it.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: Some people say, oh, but it takes a long time.
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: I'm like, no, just take those three minutes for yourself
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: and just stop and smell and started day just no technology,
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: like just going over.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: The coffee is fascinating how coffee is made. Keen young
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: people come back to old times.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: How Yeah, like you said, it's just taking that extra
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: bit of time to yourself in the morning to genuinely
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: get the routine, get the get everything going, and like
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: you said, don't you don't have to be on your
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: phone the whole time. Just find that little bit of
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: time just for yourself. Maybe figure out what you need
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: to do that day or what you know, what are
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: some highlights from the day before, or just you know,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: just anything else but doing on your phone.
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: Well, even even my daughter, she goes to school really
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: really early, and she's at the beginning. She said, oh, Mom,
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: but it's so much work. And I said, no, it's
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: not so much work. And now she's the one. She
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: wakes up every day and she pours over, she enjoys,
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: and she has her father.
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: And she drinks her coffee.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: But it's yeah, it's just I just love it.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Well, when you're creating a brand, obviously, you know with
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: the from the jewelry world as well, you've got to,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: you know, figure out what the name is, with the logo,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: the packaging, everything that really sets it apart from everything else.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: How did all that kind of come together for you?
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: Oh my god.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: So that's interesting because name every name you think about,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: it's taken.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Any name.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: I tried all names and they were all taken. And
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: then I thought about choir, which is a great name still,
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: but it's koir means poor over in Portuguese, and I
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: think it sounds great and sounds nice, but then there
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: are other companies that have similar names, and I could
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: have a problem in the future right with that.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: So I was sitting here one day and I thought,
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: boom boom in Portuguese means so good.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: But on my in my state, we have our own vocabulary.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: We change words, we make our own words, so we
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: say boone, which is just very local thing, like we
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: are kind.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: Of like the hill buildings of Brazil. They joke about us.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: And but bone means really good and then g G
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: mice g plus it means a lot. Right, So I thought, oh,
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: I'm going to do bomb loan and I checked. I
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: didn't see any boon Coffee. Said okay, I'm going to
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: do bomb And as as I'm trying to think, come
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: up with a logo, because I did my own logo,
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: I did, I did everything. But when I was trying
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: to draw a logo, I thought, oh, my.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: God, low bone boom, low boone.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: Is my name, like it's my last name. That's what
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna do. And uh, everybody said, oh everybody, I
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: don't know if they lied to me, but they all
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: said it was a great name.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: If they were lying to me to make me feel good.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: I hope it works. I hope it works. And uh,
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: and then I wanted a black.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: I wanted to make the package very simple because I'm
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: I have attention that disorder really bad, like bad, and
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: with the age, it's getting worse by the second. When
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I go on to the supermarket, I say hours in
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: the supermarket, first you go to look at shampoos, and
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: you have all different types of shampools like for it's
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: before it was.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Dry, oily, normal hair.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: Right now it's all and it takes forever for me
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: to figure out.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: And the coffee is the same thing. There's so many options. Yes,
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: so I thought, I want to make it simple. I
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: don't want. I don't want.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: I don't I'm talking to you. I'm telling you my first,
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: my first idea.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Okay, and I can.
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: I might change, and hopefully I'll change and have other
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: or different opinion. But I love to do just one
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: type of roast, one type of coffee, like just so
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: they don't have to think. Yes, it's And I even
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: asked my ros should we make a dark roast and
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: he said, it's gonna lose the flavor. It's so flavorful,
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: like let's not burn it, like leave it as is.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: So hey, I might.
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: And one thing that I might that I'm going to
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: come up and I'm going to do it. It's the
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: Brazilian cappuccino. Okay, that's on my plan. Hopefully this year
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: I'll be able to do it. But the Brazilian cappucina
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: is different. It has like a lot of cinnamon and chocolate.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: It's so delicious. It's like a dessert. It's a little
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: high caloric too, but you can make at home. Just
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: put hot water and it's done. So that's one thing
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: I want to add. But besides that, I just want
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: to simple and the packaging. That's how I wanted, like
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: simple easy.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking at it. It's very simple and it's
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: very beautiful.
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Yes, I wanted very simple, easy. And also I you know,
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: I'm looking at costs too, Like I didn't want to
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: go crazy and do all different colors because the package
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: would be so expensive. So if my brand takes off
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: and if it's you know, if it's successful, then I'm
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: going to come with a tropical packaging with you know,
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: lots of colors, but I have to check what I'm
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: spending too, so true colors is usually cheaper on the printing.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, now that makes sense. Have you been hit with
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: any of those tariffs or with coffee one of those
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: things that kind of got I think coffee was got
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: taken off right.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Yes, yes, but at the beginning.
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: So when I started my bus, my first plan was
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: to sell green coffee, just green coffee wholesel. That was
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: my plan in twenty nineteen when I first started thinking
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: about it.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: But then it changed.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: And when I when I bought the coffee, it was
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: that they had just you don't have the taxes, and
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: then they and then they put the fifty percent, which
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: was crazy and everybody.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Was just stupid.
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: Click seriously, and especially we don't produce coffee in the
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: United States, so.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Well order drink it. He would not have known that.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: So yes, yeah, I don't want to go into politics, but.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: It's a reality.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: And the main reason I wanted the green coffee was
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: because green coffee. Before there was no taxes at all
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: to import green coffee. Because it's a necessity. It's almost
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: like a medication.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: We need it.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: And only how I as a coffee just a little bit,
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: and I think California maybe a little bit. I'm not sure.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: So we need from another country. So green coffee makes
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: sense not to be taxable, but it's okay. At least
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: it's less taxes.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: I think people are calmer. I think it really made
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of people, you know, especially big business. They
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: were anxious because fifty percent it's a lot, and that's
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: on my jewelry. Now it's fifty percent, so I am
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: holding production and it's my girls in Brazil. They are
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: already desperate. It said, we have to do it now,
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: like we can't wait anymore. I've been waiting trying to see. Okay,
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: maybe it's going to lower a little bit. But I
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: guess it doesn't wear a jewelry either, he does it.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's yeah, none of that, None of that makes
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: any sense. I can't wait to see the backstories of
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: how people got around this later in life. It's almost
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: like prohibition and how people still be able to get
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: alcohol but they didn't have to pay any of the taxes.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: So I can't wait to hear the stories years later
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: about how some of these people did this so that
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: they wouldn't get paid tarr Or went to buy tariff
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: even sticking stuff in coffee. Who knows, because you can't.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I tell you, and I'll tell you the
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: saddest thing. So so.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: Because when he did that, the Brazilian government immediately negotiated
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: with China. So the Brazilian producers they got clients really fast.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: We were going to lose.
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: Because sixty percent of the coffee in the United States
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: comes from Brazil. Oh, okay, sixty percent, So it's it's
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: a lot, that's and that's another reason I wanted. I thought, Okay,
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: if sixty percent, my state is the biggest coffee producer
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: in Brazil, so I want, I want to. I want
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: to work with coffee. And besides the fact that I
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: always loved coffee and my my state, it's all about coffee.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Like two people.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, I remember going to Paris
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: and I'll asked the guy the hotel years ago and
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: I asked him, I said, I want to I used
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: to smoke back then, and I said, I want to
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: go to a coffee shop.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Can I go to?
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: Do you have any recommendation closed by? And he said, here,
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: we don't drink coffee like Americans do. We have breakfast
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: and later you you guys drink big coffee.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: And he started giving me a whole lesson and I
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: just told him, I said, hey, baby, I'm from Razil.
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: I had coffee my baby bottle. Okay, just I saw
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: people sitting on.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: The cafes having their cigarettes, and that's what I want
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: to do.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: Yesh Oh, that's too funny. Well, I have a segment
• 33:12

  Speaker 3: a bunch of like cheap things and they wanted to
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: charge her so much when she arrived in Brazil.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: But she had approved.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: She had a letter from the homeless that because she
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: used to cook for them every Friday, like they huge
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: huge amount of like soup and different meals, and guys
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: would take to the streets right to donate to the homeless,
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: and that they were complaining that whoever was in her
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: place wasn't cutting the vegetables in a nice way.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: They were not cutting putting enough meat. They were very cheap,
• 36:08

• 36:13
  Speaker 3: and I love that about her.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: That's amazing. And number five, what would you tell your
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: seventeen year old self?
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: Time goes by fast and take that picture. You're not
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: gonna look better. Yes, that's a good time.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: It gets worse, so take the picture now. It doesn't
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: get better.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: I think that was the name of the last Bad
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Bunny album too. I wish I did take I think
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: I was the name of the last Bad Bunny album too.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: I wish I would have taken that picture or whatever it.
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: Was in Yeah, because even now, like if I'm taking
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: pictures with my friends at this said, oh I don't
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: look good now, I say, you look better than you're
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: gonna look at you from now?
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: Yes, Yeah, I was thinking that last year when I
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: was putting all my pictures together for like a highlight
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: of last year, and there was barely any pictures of myself.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: But I take pictures of everybody else, but I just
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: don't think to take pictures of myself. I'm like, I
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: know what I look like. It's fine, but yes, you're right.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: For later you will want to look back and be like, oh,
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: I kind of wish I had taken a picture with
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: this person, or seeing this person again, or yeah, so.
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: I'm the picture crazy lady. And people, all my friends
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: they oh my god, here comes you again. But it's
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: because I think we have to take advantage that. Now
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: we don't need to have the films like we had before,
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: and we could only take twenty four pictures. We can
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: only take thirty six pictures. Now we can take as
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: many pictures as we like. And it's we can capture
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: moments in such a beautiful way, simple things. And I
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: my advice, even though I wasn't asked. I would love
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: giving an wanted advices. That's my name, but I'll give
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: it anyway. For people that have family, fathers, fathers, usually
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: they take the pictures they love taking pictures and they
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: are never on the pictures. And then something happens, you
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: pass away and your family don't have pictures of you.
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: So I think it's so important. So I'll tell all
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: the seventeen year old that are listening to the show
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: to take pictures of moments.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: Yes, not to post.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: You don't need to post your life, but to save
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: because later on you look at the picture can bring
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: you back in time.
• 38:44
