We had the good fortune of connecting with Dedarius Cofer and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Dedarius, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
The thought process behind my business was I realized that there are a lot of people out here like me. Going to college because you been told to go or because you see others around you go, working a job with no real purpose or goals on what you want to do in life. I been in a lot of those positions, so for me it was just about sharing my stories and others who have been to college or find there passion doing something else . It’s all about educating the next generation so they can be better than us !
Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
The Most Important Thing I Would Say Is I didn’t give up ! I stayed committed to my podcast even when I had people cancel on me , show up late, don’t help promote the episode, Tried to get there episode taken down and so much more! I just never gave up because through adversity you have to always remember your why/ purpose and if you can always remember that you can overcome anything you put your mind to ! I focus on the underdogs, people who are not famous who don’t have voices but are very wise and educated people in their field and they all got next up in their business/ entertainment Field! Anybody can teach you somebody, people tend to only listen to people who are successful and that’s not entirely a bad thing but don’t be so close minded that you don’t think you can learn from anybody!
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Top Golf , Activate Games , Axe Throwing, Escobar , PuttShack and more
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?
Shoutout To My Brother Xavier Cooper! This whole podcast idea was his we was supposed to do it together but life happens! So I put my vision behind it and became my own! Shoutout To Life Partner Kimbra As Well She Helped Me Get Comfortable Being On Camera , And Helped Encourage A lot When It Comes To My Podcast! So Those Two People Mean Everything To Me
