About this episode

Carlie and Lex discuss community, purpose, and opportunities with Tony Jolly of Ora Cafe and Crenshaw Coffee.

This week we get off the Couch and in the community with Tony Jolly of Ora Cafe and Crenshaw Coffee. In the heart of Leimert Park at a Crenshaw Coffee cart, we have a powerful conversation about walking in purpose, building community, and creating opportunities for others. Follow Tony and the Ora crew at @oraenergy on IG and to learn more and support Tony’s dream of expanding coffee carts for formerly incarcerated people and youth, please visit and donate at the hotandcoolfoundation.org
