<p>Ep. 174</p><p><br /></p><p><em>This week on </em><strong>The Zen Effect Show…</strong></p><p>This Tuesday’s conversation is nourishment for the entrepreneurial spirit. Not motivation. Not grind culture. Not a highlight reel. </p><p><br /></p><p>This was a masterclass in purpose, presence, and perseverance.</p><p><br /></p><p>On this episode of The Zen Effect Show, I sit with Odidi, owner of Fresh One Kitchen and what unfolds is a grounded, honest conversation about building from <em>why</em>, not just will.</p><p><br /></p><p>You didn’t ask to be here. You were created to be here. On purpose.</p><p><br /></p><p>You were born with a gift, and your life expands the moment you commit to locating it, honoring it, and building from it, even amongst the obstacles you may face.</p><p><br /></p><ul><li><p>The moments that cracked him open and how those moments became invitations instead of endings.</p></li><li><p>How obstacles refine purpose instead of erasing it.</p></li><li><p>Why alignment sustains what hustle cannot.</p></li><li><p>What it really means to build from your gift and let your work be an extension of your spirit.</p></li><li><p>A reframe for entrepreneurs who feel tired, called, and ready for deeper meaning.<br />Because entrepreneurship without grounding leads to burnout. Because purpose without embodiment becomes performance. And because Black creators, founders, and visionaries deserve conversations that honor soul, strategy, and sustainability, not just success metrics.</p></li></ul><p><br /></p><p>This episode reminds us that building something meaningful requires more than effort. It requires presence, integrity, and trust in what you were designed to carry.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is about legacy not just income. Expansion not exhaustion. And remembering that your work is most powerful when it’s aligned with who you are becoming.</p><p><br /></p><p>May this conversation nourish you. May it ground you. And may it remind you that what you’re building matters because you matter.</p><p><br /></p><p><strong>Connect Odidi and Fresh Visit Fresh One’s Kitchen </strong></p><p><a href="https://www.freshonekitchen.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>Place Your Online Order Here  </strong></a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/freshonekitchen/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>Follow Fresh One Kitchen on Instagram </strong></a></p><p>🎧 Stream the replay on YouTube, Spotify &amp; Apple Podcasts 🔎 Search <em>“The Zen Effect Show”</em> <strong>Click here⁠ ⁠</strong><a href="https://thezeneffectshow.komi.io" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>For all things mentioned—and all things Zen Effect ⁠⁠ T</strong></a><strong>une in live on⁠ ⁠</strong><a href="http://tun.in/sfj6I" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><strong>WBNC⁠⁠ </strong></a><strong>Tuesdays at 6pm EST, also linked above.   </strong></p><p></p>
