We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Jasmine/Vernon Chatman. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Jasmine/Vernon below.
Jasmine/Vernon, so many exciting things to discuss, we can’t wait. Thanks for joining us and we appreciate you sharing your wisdom with our readers. So, maybe we can start by discussing optimism and where your optimism comes from?
My optimism is deeply rooted in the inspiration I draw from reading uplifting books and stories of individuals who have navigated challenges similar to my own. Witnessing the resilience and triumphs of others who have faced adversity instills in me a profound belief in the power of positivity and perseverance, fueling my optimistic outlook on life.
Thanks for sharing that. So, before we get any further into our conversation, can you tell our readers a bit about yourself and what you’re working on?

We find immense joy in engaging with them, creating new and exhilarating flavor experiences that go beyond the ordinary. Crafting unique and invigorating popcorn flavors is not just a job for us; it’s a passion.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
Reflecting on my journey, three qualities that significantly influenced my path were resilience, adaptability, and continuous learning. The ability to bounce back from setbacks, adapt to evolving circumstances, and maintain a mindset of lifelong learning has been extremely important in my growth.
For those starting their journey, my advice is to be resilient by embracing challenges as opportunities for growth. Understand that setbacks are not failures but stepping stones towards success. Develop adaptability by remaining open to change and viewing it as a chance to explore new possibilities. Embrace a mindset of continuous learning, seeking knowledge and skills that align with your goals.
Remember, every experience, whether positive or challenging, contributes to your personal and professional development. Be curious, stay resilient, adapt to change, and commit to a journey of lifelong learning – these qualities will not only shape your path but also empower you to overcome any obstacles that come your way.
How would you spend the next decade if you somehow knew that it was your last?
One notable challenge currently on our radar is the pursuit of adequate business funding to fuel our expansion efforts, enhance brand awareness, and invest in strategic marketing initiatives.
Despite the challenges associated with funding, we are determined to overcome these obstacles. We firmly believe that where there is a will, there is indeed a way. This challenge serves as an opportunity for us to explore creative solutions, think outside the conventional boundaries, and leverage alternative avenues for support.
Our passion for the brand and our vision for the future is what fires and propels us forward, motivating us to navigate this complex world of entrepreneurship. We are confident that, with determination and strategic planning, we will find the means to overcome this challenge and continue on our path of growth and success.
