Fifty Shades of Smoke by Arlene Becton
Welcome back, cigar aficionados and story lovers, to another captivating episode of Ashes with Ash! I'm your host, Ash, and I couldn't be more thrilled to have you all here with me today.
In this episode, we have a very special guest joining us – the wonderful Arlene. She's not only here to share her own inspiring journey but also the remarkable stories of those who have shaped her life (like her superhero mom and military hero, dad) and the vibrant world of the cigar industry: (from her husband, to the Fuente family, to Nick Perdomo and how his tour of Perdomo factory in Nicaragua sparked a learning desire in Arlene!)
As we dive into Arlene's narrative, get ready to be enthralled by tales of resilience, passion, and the power of connections. Through her experiences, we'll discover how the cigar industry can be a medium for personal growth and meaningful relationships.
But wait, there's more! I’m excited to introduce a brand-new segment to the Ashes with Ash Podcast. It's time to shine a spotlight on incredible women's stories from both history and present day. Their achievements, triumphs, and contributions will leave you in awe and inspired.
Today, I am sharing the story of Zenzile Miriam Makeba - South African singer, songwriter, actress, and civil rights activists!
So, sit back, relax, and get ready to embark on a journey of exploration, empowerment, and enlightenment. As always, your support means the world to me, and I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I do.
Without further ado, let's jump right into the stories of Arlene and the amazing women who have left their mark on history and continue to do so today.
Connect wit Arlene!
