Special "Business Revenue Leak Checklist" offer free at http://www.mrse.co/leak.
What if your biggest business block isn't marketing but positioning rooted in limiting beliefs? Jean-Philippe Vezina shares with Michi Lantz how Black entrepreneurs can rewire generational trauma, reclaim cultural identity, and build wealth without losing their roots.
Guest Bio:
Jean-Philippe Vézina is a strategic advisor and ecosystem builder working at the intersection of Afro-descendant entrepreneurship, agri-food systems, and market positioning. His work focuses on a key challenge: helping entrepreneurs move beyond visibility to build structured, scalable, and culturally rooted business models. As a Board Member of the Canada-Africa Chamber of Commerce (CACC), he contributes to strengthening economic corridors between Canada and African markets, with a focus on agri-food value chains, transformation, and long-term partnerships.
Through Movez Coaching, he supports founders, brands, and organizations-particularly within Afro-descendant communities-in clarifying their positioning, structuring their growth, and accessing new markets without diluting their identity. He is known for challenging the idea that marketing alone drives growth, arguing instead that identity and positioning are the real leverage points for sustainable success.

What is Making It: How Coaches, Consultants, and Creators Build for Success?
For most aspiring online entrepreneurs, “making it” means achieving success in your business. But what exactly is business success anyway? And how do outwardly successful online entrepreneurs define "making it"? Here at Mirasee FM, we wanted to find out, so we asked a group of diverse online business owners what success means to them. Their answers and insights surprised, moved, and inspired us. In this podcast, accomplished online entrepreneurs discuss what making it means to them, provide tips for online business success, and share important lessons on business and life that they have learned along the way.
