We had the good fortune of connecting with Eugena Talley and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Eugena, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
My thought process was to change how people in the South viewed food. I believe(d) that we can still enjoy “soul-food” without consuming “souls”.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
We believe that many diseases can be reversed through herbs and a plant based diet. I am most proud that I had the tenacity to continue striving to serve my community with quality food and and herbs.. It is finally paying off. Getting here wasn’t easy at all.‘I learned that success is about discipline & dedication.

I have learned that we all have time to be better. It can be uncomfortable and daunting but with the right push it can be easier to process..

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I spit take them to downtown Greenville! Is splurge on a really nice Airbnb. Book 90 minute massages, grab some amazing food, meditate, shop, hike, bike, book a ride on the lake and of course eat again! Lol. Search for crystals and gems at the mining shop, go to the bookstore, eat and sleep lol.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Greatest shout out to God for delivering and keeping his promise!
