Today on the Season 1 finale of We Are Made Podcast, Imani is joined by winemaker, Justin Trabue. Growing up wine was a topic openly discussed amongst her family and she soon went on to learn the ins and outs of the business. After moving from DC to California to study wine, she spent summers in Santa Cruz putting together irrigation systems, and studying in Australia where she witnessed her first harvest season. But her passion for wine goes deeper then the surface, shes dedicated to creating space for black winemakers in the industry. Introducing this week's origin story, Justin Trabue.

Today on the We Are Made Podcast, Imani is joined by singer, songwriter B.Cloy. Born and raised in Havana, FL he first started singing in the choir at his local church. As his passion for singing and songwriting began to grow in high school, he decided that a career as an artist was what he wanted to pursue. But growing up in a small town made it difficult to envision a life beyond his environment and deep down he knew that he wanted more for himself. He quickly began to realize that the only possible way to make this dream a reality was by leaving. Introducing this week’s origin story, B.Cloy. Find B.Cloy and his work by clicking here.

Today on the We Are Made Podcast, Imani is joined by Liberian photographer and BYDESIGN co-founder, Muenfua Lewis. Originally born in Kansas City, he didn’t discover his passion for photography until his later years in college. Due to the lack of reflections in his immediate environment, it wasn’t until after joining the corporate world that he realized a creative outlet is essential. A personal project turned idea would soon allow him the space to build the community he longed for and tell the stories he wanted to hear. Introducing this week's origin story, Muenfua Lewis.
