• #19 The Hustle with Earl Martin Phalen
    2023/01/10

    Earl Martin Phalen is one of K-12 education's most visionary leaders: a founder and CEO of multiple successful nonprofits, his mission is to deliver educational excellence and equity to low-income Black and brown children. Born into the Massachusetts foster care system, Earl was adopted into a large, loving Irish Catholic family at age two. His parents instilled the values that led him to a life of service and growing up Earl was encouraged to see people as they were, not to pre-judge relationships and situations on the basis of color. Earl's education taught him the power of Black self-determination, and the love of his family and community sustained him as he struggled to become the leader he once doubted he could be. Earl's exciting career is a testament to his mission's core message: all children deserve the support, the opportunity, and the self-belief they need to reach for their dreams without hesitation.

    On a mission to enhance the quality of life for KC Scholars and students worldwide, his prolific vision has redefined industry standards and revolutionized how we look at education. Inspired by his own commitment to positively impact the global landscape, his work in the last year with KC Scholars has helped make the organization one of the nation’s most effective college scholarship and support programs.

  • #15 The Hustle with Q Tha Photographer
    2022/06/08

    Amazing story with Felix Quinones whose passion shines through art and photography which has been a part of his life as long as he can remember. He has always been fascinated by the concept of an image and how it makes others feel.  Felix and his super supportive wife had the opportunity to serve the USA for 12 years in the United States Marine Corps, and you will hear in this conversation about his challenges with mental illness, diversity, finding his passion and about his importance in his family to push him forward. His story is about defiance and fortitude, and how he now lets that shine through his work in photography and art.  In 2020 Felix speaks about working in HR for a major casino in California. Once the Pandemic hit, they were both furloughed. As a father of three children, he knew he was not going to make it very far without making a quick decision for him and his family. Together they decided in the midst of a pandemic to pack up and move to Texas and start a photography business. There were so many risk factors including the cost of the move, no jobs, no client base, a business that requires personal interaction during a massive pandemic and only a small amount of savings to live on. Throughout his time in the Marine Corps one thing that was ingrained in him was “mission accomplishment”. Once you have set your sights on an objective, it must be obtained no matter what!
