We had the good fortune of connecting with Jean-Philippe Gibson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Jean-Philippe, what do you want your legacy to be?
That I genuinely love people and helped as many people as possible from all walks of life regardless of the demographic they belonged too, or their socioeconomic status. I just want to help people, and aid in people becoming the best holistically healthy version of themselves.

What should our readers know about your business?
I work with business professionals raising funds for businesses, movies, televisions, shows, and real estate development projects. I also work as an entertainment consultant. I had to persevere to build my network. I know people all over the world literally from all walks of life. Some people have a lot of followers on social media, and some of us have a lot of people that know us. I’m grateful to have a lot of people that know and respect me around the world. The greatest challenge was not always having the support of those around me, and overcoming the doubters. Being able to manifest and be who GOD says I am has been the greatest of experience. And I want the world to know that I’m a helper and cultivator of people. Helping people one on one is my greatest passion.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
When people come to Atlanta they have to go visit The King Center (Martin Luther King Jr), and the Atlanta History Center. There is so much great history and lessons from the past that we can still glean from. Everyone has to visit Bankhead Seafood to support Michael Render (Killer Mike). Go walking at Chastain Park and Piedmont Park, as well as go bike riding on the Beltline.

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?
Everyone that I have ever come across in any capacity has played a role in my success: GOD, Family, Classmates, Educators, Co-Workers, Associates, Friends, Clergy, Religious Community, Medical Professionals, Athletic Teammates, Business Partners, Clients, etc. Whether those relationships were perceived as being good or bad, they’ve all helped. But special thanks goes to my mother Shelia Gibson and my father Jean-Philippe for making me, and my Grandmother Annie Wright and my grandfather James Wright Sr for providing for me growing up. Special thanks to Charles McCutchen, Jennifer Ambrose, Lakshmi Sinclair, Dr. Kathryn McClymond, Casiana Foghis, Jernise Rutherford, Gongu Roach, Damon “Dame Grease” Blackmon, Debra Antney, Frank “Nitt Da Gritt” Robinson, Monica and Monique (Coffee and Cornbread), Fletcher Batts, Jennifer Ambrose, Regina Thomas, Marwan Jassim Al Sarkal, Simon Sandoval, Tanyetta Sampson, and my great team of therapists.
