Ready Or Not Radio Aimée Ogbonna

INTERVIEW// Jasmine Chong is an absolute fashion darling and has been steadily making a name for herself as a designer for the past several years.  She was most recently a contestant on Amazon Prime's Making The Cut hosted by Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn.  Jasmine is talented and down to earth and takes us on her journey from going to college to study economics before transitioning to studying fashion design and ultimately showing at New York Fashion Week.  She pushes boundaries with her creations by making size neutral clothing, using models that look just like you and me and making all women feel like a million dollars in her clothes.

Today, Aimée addresses some questions she received after episode 00 including her relationship with money growing up, her income while paying off debt, the gender pay gap, and the investment gap.  Later on, we hear from Jacinta Ukah-Ogbonna, Aimée's mom, about her journey to the United States as a newlywed Nigerian immigrant, getting through nursing school while balancing a family and ultimately moving to Saudi Arabia to achieve a better quality of life.

In the first installment of Ready Or Not Radio, you will meet me, your host, Amy Ogbonna.  I share a bit about my background and the self-doubt journey that prevented me from launching this podcast so many years ago and the moment(s) I decided enough was enough and I should just go for it.  I also reveal one of my biggest struggles of my mid-twenties - Credit Card Debt - and some strategies I used to get rid of it. This episode provides a glimpse into the vulnerable nature of this show and some of the topics we will dive into in future episodes and interviews.  Connect with the show on instagram @readyornotradio or with me @aimee_oh.  The show also has a website that is currently under construction, www.readyornotradio.com.  Launch date to be announced. Thanks for joining me on this journey.
