A Conversation with Alana Griffin, Ambassador of Ujamaa Collective In Ep 86, we started a conversation about Personal Empowerment and Cooperative Economics through the lens of Ujamaa Collective, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. The Ujamaa collective acts as a catalyst to advance Africana Women by providing a fair trade marketplace for cultural, artistic and entrepreneurial exchange through cooperative economics. In this episode we continue the conversation with Alana Griffin, Ambassador of Ujamaa Collective.
Join us as we explore the process from participation to power by reimagining the power of we.
The point is to shift the perspective; to take action and create new possibilties with a different measuring stick.
Personal Empowerment begins with individuals recognizing their inherent worth, capabilities, and power to make choices that impact their life and community.
Personal empowerment cultivates self-awareness, responsibility, and action.
