I'm a single lady that used to be an elementary school teacher, and so I didn't have a lot of pull with the bank. You know, nobody was gonna, like, loan me a half a million dollars or whatever it took. I felt like I was jumping off a cliff, and I didn't know what was underneath. I started just pursuing this passion with everything I have in me. I worked so hard to make it happen, I didn't know if it was gonna work out. I mean, yeah, I cared if it was gonna work out, but I just, I chose not to think about that part, and I just decided to dive in with everything in me. So I bartered and I traded and I asked people to help, and everything I needed appeared. The act of pursuing your passion is going to propel you forward, right? Because you love it so much, and people are gonna pick up on that love. It's gonna spill over into everyone that you meet when you talk about this passion, and then they're gonna get excited about it too. It literally happens to me every single day.

In this episode of her purpose, we sit down with summer a former teacher who found herself navigating life as a single mom, financially strained to the max, and longing to pursue what was her true passion, coffee with no real support system outside of herself, she took a major leap of faith and started her own coffee roastery, while juggling multiple side jobs to keep her dream alive. Through sheer determination and resilience, she eventually built her own cafe, allowing her to leave teaching behind and go all in on her business. Now she's thriving, loving her life and proving that with passion and persistence, anything is possible. Summer's story is one of grit, courage and the power of chasing what truly lights you up. Oh my gosh. I am so excited to be talking to you summer. So I really briefly saw something that you shared, where you talked a little bit about your journey and what you've accomplished and where you're at today, and I reached out to you, and your immediate response was, I want to get my message out. And I was like, Yes, this is the type of woman that I want to talk to. So summer you live in Pensacola, right?
Yes, that's correct. How long have you lived there? Well, I was born here. I'm kind of a beach girl from early on, but I moved away when I was little, and I went to school and grew up in Kentucky, and then after high school, I came back to Pensacola, because I have a lot of family here, and I wanted to give it a shot here. And I did move away again for a little while, and I lived outside of Washington, DC for a few years, but I came back again because this place keeps calling me, calling me back again and again, it's home for me.
So you went to school to be a teacher, and you were a teacher for some time, correct? Yes,
I taught fifth grade for a few years, and then I taught art, and my passion was really focused around teaching art at the time, and I knew that it was I had, like artistic goals, teaching just didn't quite fulfill that for me.
And you were a single mom. I know you were a single mom five years ago. How, for what period of time were you and are you still a single mom?
I'm still a single mom. I had gotten married and had kids, and I lived kind of like a housewife for a little while, and I wasn't really feeling like my dreams were being actualized, and I felt like I was stifled, and eventually we went through a divorce, and we share custody now, and he lives here in Pensacola as well. So it works out with the kid sharing kids back and forth, but I'm still on my own, and I was struggling pretty hard, and that's when I came to this realization that I could change my life if I wanted to. So
what was it that opened your mind up to a different way of doing this, doing life?
Well, there were a lot of events that all started happening at the same time. I had gotten into a relationship with an with a man. We weren't married, but. But we lived together, and we had talked about getting married, and he started suffering from some mental illness. He became unpredictable, and he started to get violent, and I knew that I needed to get out of that situation, but because we were living together, and I was surviving on a teacher salary with with my kids, it felt like it was impossible for me to be able to support myself on my own, and that was really scary. Right around the same time, my mother passed away. I'm adopted, so this was my adopted mother, and she raised me, you know, and then shortly after that, my dad remarried, and his new wife decided that she didn't want his kids, his adopted kids, there's there's four of us all together. She didn't want him having contact with us. I think she saw us as a threat. And so basically, I realized I was all alone, and I didn't have a partner that supported me. I didn't have family anymore, and I kind of had this pivotal moment where the realization occurred that no one was coming to save me, right, that if, if I wanted to make my life better, it had to be me.
Were you at a point where you knew of other ways, like starting the business, you run a coffee, you roast coffee, you sell wholesale coffee, and you run a coffee shop with arts,
correct? Yes, yeah. So was that
the the obvious path for you or or, how did it come about that you thought you know what, instead of teaching, I want to transition to owning a business. How did you make that decision?
Well, years ago, when I was married, he owned a coffee shop. Technically, on paper, we were partners in it, but I wasn't allowed to take over ownership responsibilities, and this was the stifling that I was talking about a minute ago. We opened to this coffee shop together, and I didn't have any experience with the coffee world, you know, and he took over running it, but I was told that, you know, I was not going to be making decisions, and he was roasting coffee and dealing with all the wholesale clients and growing and developing the business. And he had me, you know, sitting up front with the baristas and waiting on customers and cleaning. And I was learning about the coffee world and absorbing all of this knowledge, but I wasn't able to use it. And so after we got divorced, and I'm, I'm teaching school because I have the certification, and it's like just barely paying my bills. And my life starts changing in the sense that I don't, I no longer have a family or a partner. I'm, I start to realize that, like I have what I need, I know what I need to do. I have this experience and this knowledge about the coffee world, and I can use it if I want to, right?
So you, you were in a situation where it's what I'm hearing is that he did not see you as an equal in business, that's correct. And so you, and this was your husband, yes, so when you this now down the road, you're in a different relationship. It's not working out your but you're financially, not able to go out on your own on a teacher's income. So I know from just reading some about your story that you worked multiple jobs, you didn't take out loans for several years. Did you at any point in there? What fears did you have? I mean, I kind of hear it was Do or die.
I didn't have any money in the bank. I you know, I was teaching elementary art during the day, Monday through Friday, and going to that job, and it was just barely paying my bills. And honestly, it wasn't even paying my bills because I couldn't afford my rent after I parted ways with my boyfriend at the time that was living with me, I he moved out, and I realized, like, I've got all these bills, you know, I can. I was just barely surviving with him there paying my half of things, and so I decided that I was going to have to make some sacrifices for a while, and then I was going to have to take action on top of that in order to change my life. So I rented out the master suite in my home to a very nice older woman, and we shared the home together. I'm a painter, and so I had an art studio, and I moved into that, and I slept there for two years, and there was no closet, you know, and I got multiple extra jobs that I would go to after my teaching day was done. I would clean commercial businesses around town. I would give. Private art lessons and group art lessons to kids or adults, and I just worked myself as much as I could in order to save the money that I needed in order to open this business.
So when you open the business, you were running the business and still teaching for some time, correct? Yes,
I tried to do it in baby steps. A business doesn't start out being successful. It has to be built. And so I would I, once I got the money that I needed to buy some pieces of equipment, like this machine that you see behind me. This is a coffee roaster. And these are pretty expensive. That cost more than my car, you know? And so I had to raise the money for these kinds of things, and eventually I was able to quit some of my extra jobs, right? And then I'm still teaching. After work, I would come here, I rented out a small room in the back of this building, and I would roast coffee and practice, and I would type up wholesale pricing lists, and I would work on my packaging and my labeling, and, you know, get my business licensure. And once I had all of that in order, I started cold calling customers around town, walking into farmers markets and grocery stores and coffee shops and dropping off samples and talking to them, meeting them face to face. And over the course of the next year or two, I started getting a few clients, and then a few more, and then a few more. And pretty soon, my brand is becoming a recognizable, known brand around town, and because of the attention to detail that I put into the product, it's really it's a really good product, and people love it. So I started be like having this local notoriety. And eventually I got so many clients, wholesale clients, that something had to give, because I I needed more time in the day in order to fill orders for them. Right around that same time, the the front of my building, it was an it was a cafe, and we shared the building. I just rented a room in the back. Well, they closed down and moved out, and the owner of the building approached me, and he said, Listen, I see you working here every single day, all through the night, even on the weekends, and I see how busy you are. I'm also seeing your coffee and all the stores and restaurants around, and I think you need to open a coffee shop. And so I'm coming to you before I list this, you know, for lease anywhere else, because I want to give you the first right of refusal. And I took that as my sign from the universe that this is my path. It's showing itself to me. And so I quit my teaching job, and that was very, very scary. I felt like I was jumping off a cliff and I didn't know what was underneath, because I had a salary and a pension and health insurance and that stable paycheck that I knew that was going to be there for me and when I quit, that all just went away in an instant, you know, and I didn't know if this was going to be able to pay my bills, but it was, it did. How
long did that take? How long was it between when you quit and when you were like, Okay, this is going to work. This is working. This is
my future. Because I was a teacher, we get summers off, and we get paid during the summer. And so I timed it so that I quit at the very end of the school year, and I had two months. It was Do or die in two months if I didn't make it within those the end of that two months, my paycheck was going to stop coming and I wouldn't get another one. And so having that sort of fire under me really helped, because I just I started hiring people, I started building my social media presence. I started going out and talking to more wholesale clients, and I just sprung into action. And by the end of that two months, I was paying myself all that I needed to survive and more. Oh my
gosh, that's amazing. So I know you had an unsupportive ex husband, which is really hard to function in that type of environment. The rest of your family, you were adopted, your dad, your relationship with was your when you say your dad, that was your adopted dad as well. Yes, yes. So that's is that still broken?
He still isn't able to communicate with me or my other siblings. It's a really hard thing because he's getting older, and I feel like I need to talk to him right before his health starts declining, but it's impossible. He doesn't return calls or texts. He's never come. To see me here, and that's, that is a hard thing. It's heavy on my heart. You know, I carry around a lot of grief over that, because it feels like I've lost a parent, but they're still here technically, you know, right, right? So, yeah,
that's still, did you have? Did you have any other family that was supportive and encouraged you and believed in you and said, We know you can do this. Or was that all just from within yourself?
It was all from within myself. I have distant relatives around here, but we don't talk too much, and honestly, they still see me as kind of like, you know, a kid that never quite grew up. Sometimes I think our family members still see us for our original personas when we're younger, right? And, and I don't think that they ever imagined that I would be running a really successful business like this, and, and to this day, I really don't know that they understand it. I think they think I might be holding a bake sale or something, you know,
when, in reality, or like, it's actually quite successful,
it's pretty big, yeah, but that's okay, you know, I don't need that external validation, because, you know, I motivate myself with what I'm doing,
right? Well, when you're in a situation where it's do or die, and you're a single mom, I think as a mom, no matter what you know at the end of the day, if it's to be it's up to me, right? If it's gonna happen, it's gonna happen because I make it happen, not because anyone else is going to make it happen. But was there any resources or influences that helped you in that path to know, the next steps to take to know, kind of, obviously you had some experience with the coffee business, but how did you navigate that?
A lot of it was learning trial and error. I definitely made some mistakes at the beginning that I quickly learned from and and and fixed the second time around. I spoke to a lot of my clients that were already like buying my coffee beans, and they helped me with some of the ins and outs of running a cafe and, you know, organizational things and training and taxes and stuff like that. They kind of gave me some tips about that stuff, but a lot of it, I had to learn on my own with a lot of research. I wouldn't say that I have a role model, because I have been flying on my own wings for quite some time now, and kind of building those wings as I'm going, you know, and I'm still doing that, but I mean, if I had to pick one person that I think I feel a kinship with, I I recently read Elon Musk's book, and some of the things that he talked About in that I saw in myself, and that would be thinking outside of the box, creative solutions to problems in your workplace or in your business, and questioning everything and everyone. Those were some of the key takeaways that he talks about, that he did in order to really develop his business. And I've seen that in myself just being super curious, being super curious, and asking a lot of questions, and questioning everything that anyone tells you, why? What can I do better? How can I change this to make it better?
What does it feel like now to be like you talk about in your the post that I originally saw that you posted, you talk about how you know that if you believe in yourself, anyone can achieve anything like how does it feel now to be living out what you believed was possible but didn't have the evidence in front of you that It was actually going to happen? Well,
I mean, I feel like I'm living the life of my dreams now. And, you know, I didn't know that I would be I was just, I just decided to pursue a passion and take a chance and go for it, because what do I have to lose, you know? And I want to make my life better, so I'm going to do it. I didn't know it was going to be this successful. And honestly, it still blows my mind to this day, when I think about it,
when you talk about how successful it is, and obviously you don't have to share financial success. But for the woman that's listening, that's wondering, you know, what are you talking about? By successful? What? What about your life? How does your life look different today from before, when you were teaching solely because of the success that you're having, and it's not just financial, right?
So before I did this, when I was just teaching school and sharing a household with someone that was, you know, paying half of the bills. And I had my kids, I could hardly afford to do anything. That's one part of it, right. Financially, it was tight. I couldn't get things from my children that they needed. I have an adult daughter. She's 28 now, and she could use help from a parent, and I wasn't in the position to do that. I had kids that were going to be going off to college in a few years, and there's no way I would have been able to do that. And so yeah, it felt like my life hadn't really started yet, like I hadn't catapulted to adulthood, and I felt stuck in this lower rung of life, and I felt like there's got to be a way to get there with what's inside of me. Now that I have done that, not only have I taken over my entire house again, like I don't have a roommate anymore, I've reclaimed the master suite. I'm loving having the whole house to myself. I can pay for it all by myself. I bought myself a new car. I bought my adult daughter a car and drove it to her, which was a really good feeling to be able to do that for her. I never would have been able to do it before. I bought health insurance for myself. You know, I'm financially financially sound. I can reinvest some back into the business and continue to grow it. And that just continues to grow my net worth. And aside from that, like I've gained confidence and the ability to talk to people about not only my business, but my life, and I feel good about it. And also, like, it's funny when you start to work on a business and it becomes successful, you you start to realize that people see you as like a local celebrity, and I'm seeing that still every day. The first time it happened, it felt very strange. I was in the grocery store and somebody approached me and asked if they could take a selfie with me, and they sent it to their friends, and they said, like they told their friends, like, I'm sending you a selfie of me with the coffee queen. And I thought that was so funny. It never, I never would have expected that. You know, I just the other one week ago, I was visited by a photographer from the New York Times who's pitching my story to their editor for an upcoming edition. So if I never would have taken that jump, none of this would have ever happened. I probably would still be stuck in that lower rung of life.
I want to go back to when you drove the car to your daughter like I can only imagine. What did that feel like to be able to give that to her. As a mom,
I was, I was really excited to give it to her, right? I dropped it off. She was so grateful because she couldn't afford a car for herself. She's, you know, pretty young and starting out in her career. It solved a major problem for her and made her life easier. And now she has, like, a clearer path to success for herself. And then as I left and went back home, I remember feeling giddy and just overcome with like gratitude and joy, and I was kind of teary eyed about it, and it was just like I had this moment where I was just looking back at where I started and where I am now, and I just had this great sense of pride. I can
only imagine. What advice would you give to a woman that's listening, that is wanting to start her own business, maybe at in the coffee business, maybe not. But what advice would you give as far as helping a woman figure out, I
would tell them to think about the one thing that brings them the greatest excitement, above everything else. It might even be something that they haven't done yet, but they need to search for it until they find it. And you'll know when you find it, it's a rush of joy. It's the feeling that you're getting. It's the universe's way of telling you that you're on the right path. And you're going to follow those feelings, and you're going to do that thing with all the passion that's inside of you. And if you do that, you're going to start to see doors open for you, and that's telling you that you're on the right course. And something else I would say is, I used to visualize the person that I wish I could be right, and I wanted to be that person, but I didn't know how eventually I started to realize that I already was that person. And those people that you think about and you say, I wish I had their life, or the couple that you see who are desperately in love, and you wish you had that kind of relationship. They got there because they chose to be those people, and they chose to do those things, and they made their life what it is, and they created it for themselves. And we are all the Creator. Dollars of our own destinies, and if we want something, all we have to do is stand up and take it. We just all you have to do is step into that role, because you already are her.
I love that. I think that's so true. You already are her. You just have to be her when there's moments that you think you're not her, or anytime that you felt like maybe you weren't her, or you had self doubts, how did you get past those? I would
stop and do that exercise where I would close my eyes and I would think, who is it that I want to be, and how do I wish that my life would change? Okay, so I visualize that change, and then one, one really good way to figure out how to take the steps to make that change is to work backwards. Okay, so you, you start with the end goal. What's going to have to come right before that in order to make that goal happen, you write that down, what comes right before that, write that down, and then what comes right before that, and write that down. I heard this spoken before I went to a seminar, and they were talking about these planning strategies, and this is what I do now. So you know, if your end goal is to have, you know, 500 coffee shops, let's say I want to have five I want to have 500 coffee shops all around the southeast region of the US. Okay, so what comes before that? Well, I have to secure the funding in order to make that happen. Okay, so what comes before that? Well, in order to secure the funding for that, I have to show I have X amount of revenue a year. What comes before that? Well, in order to make that revenue happen, you know, you just keep doing that again and again, until you have your roadmap planned in front of you, and now you know what you need to do in order to step into that role, and so you take the first step. So
I want to ask, How does it feel to be that woman that you were once treated like you were not capable of being?
It feels really good. It feels it feels good. It doesn't feel good to have somebody doubt you right. That doesn't feel good, but then when you prove them wrong now, that is really empowering, and I think about that a lot, and it is a big motivator. And now I don't just think about that, but I also think about, well, if I've done this, what can I do now? What next? You know? And so that helps me with planning for future goals. And now that I've come this far, like I can come so much further I can keep going as far as I want to, and nobody makes the rules but me, these
conversations show us that living with purpose is so not about perfection. It's about trusting the whispers of your heart, embracing what is probably going to feel like a mess, and having the courage to take that first or next step when you probably won't feel ready. I do believe that every woman has a story that's unfolding, and every story can become a spark of inspiration for someone else. So if today's episode has touched you in any way, my ask is this, share it with a woman you love who might need a reminder that she's not alone, and those whispers she's feeling, they're there for a reason. All right, let's get back to the episode. Absolutely, absolutely and you're living out like every day. You're doing meaningful work, right? It sounds to me like you're doing meaningful work that you're passionate about that's fulfilling to do that also financially, has given you a super secure life,
and that is key to being successful, because the great people in the world, they didn't get where they are by going along with the motions and just doing something that they weren't passionate About. They got where they are because of passion. And so the big takeaway with this is that you have to pursue your greatest passion, and you don't even need to like stress about the outcome. Don't even think about it. The act of pursuing your passion is going to propel you forward, right? Because you love it so much, and people are going to pick up on that love. It's going to spill over into everyone that you meet when you talk about this passion, and then they're going to get excited about it too. It literally happens to me every single day. There are customers. I had several meetings with wholesale clients today, and I'm all excited and telling them all about this thing that I love. And now they're excited, and they want to be my customer, you know, and this is how you obtain success. You share your passion with others, yeah,
what would you say to the the saying that do something that you would do for free and the money will work itself out.
It does. It does. I honestly never really believed in manifesting before. Um. But I started just pursuing this passion with everything I have in me. I worked so hard to make it happen. I didn't know if it was going to work out. I mean, yeah, I cared if it was going to work out, but I just, I chose not to think about that part, and I just decided to dive in with everything in me, and all of these doors started opening, and every day, something that I needed in order to get to the next step of opening this business would appear for me. People were offering me things, you know, I didn't have the money when I when I opened this cafe, I didn't have the money to outfit it. I had the roastery, and it was going and supporting itself, and I was paying myself, but I didn't have the money for a build out. And I'm, I'm a single lady that used to be an elementary school teacher, and so I didn't have a lot of pull with the bank. You know, nobody was gonna, like, loan me a half a million dollars or whatever it took. So I bartered and I traded and I asked people to help, and everything I needed appeared. So basically, I didn't have the money to put into the build out of the coffee shop or to get the equipment that I needed, and so I just started, like bartering with people I had, I had saved up enough to finance the coffee roastery back here. So I had the equipment, and I had some coffee beans and bags and stuff, and I started just reaching out to people, like, on Facebook, marketplace and anywhere else, and I would say, like, Listen, I don't have, I don't have money to pay you for your services or for this equipment or whatever, but I have coffee and would you want to barter? I'm opening up a coffee shop, and I could really use your help. You wouldn't believe how many people were so excited about that idea. They thought it was so cool. And so I completely outfitted my coffee shop, furnishings, equipment. Somebody built a bar for me. I got countertops put on, I got an espresso machine, I got grinders, I got everything I needed for this beautiful cafe, right? I probably spent over the course of like, six to eight months of building it out, maybe $5,000 max. And that's just little bits and pieces of money that I plunked here and there as I saved it up. But this place is beautiful. It's absolutely beautiful, and it has top notch gear. And, I mean, I don't know how I did it, other than by saying I manifested it, you know, well, you
invited people into the journey by sharing the the only question that will always be a no is the one that's never asked, right? So asking, there's nothing wrong with asking, and you never know who wants to be a part of that journey. Because if you came across with so much passion, conviction and belief, people want to be a part of that, they want to support, that they want to say, I helped her when she I helped the coffee Queen when she just got started. So inviting people into our journeys is not weak. I
agree, and to back that up, you know, there were some times when I needed, like, couches and tables and chairs and such to put in the front of the coffee shop. And I used that as part of my pitch to people, when I would say, Listen, I don't really have much to offer you. I can give you some coffee, but I really need some furnishings for my coffee shop, and you have what I need. How cool would it be for you to say that your couch was part of this, this business, and you can come in and sit on it whenever you want. You know you can. You can see it on social media. You can take pictures of it whenever you pop in, but you could help me build this. And people loved that, and they actually still come in today and like, sit on their their couch or their chairs. You know, it's amazing.
That's awesome. One thing that I want to ask too about is, how would you explain the difference between how you think your life, the way you were living it, as a teacher, may or may not have been inspiring your kids versus now, like, what impact do you believe that you walking out this path has made on your kids and what they choose to do with their life?
Well, both of my kids are very artistic. It's a creative family. My son was just accepted to Loyola in New Orleans, and he's majoring in art. And basically, by showing them this and and I talked to them about it as well, I'm illustrating to them that if they have a dream and they pursue it with everything they have in them, then they're going to be successful. You know, all of the great people, the artists and musicians and writers and all the people that have done all of these awesome creative things. If they never would have done it out of fear of not succeeding, we wouldn't have all of those wonderful things, you know. And they did it, and I think that my journey has inspired them. Them to pursue their dreams as well. Miles
Monroe said that the greatest riches in the world are all buried in the cemeteries, yeah, buried in the people whose gifts were never given to the world. That's where the greatest collection of of gifts are. And we all are given a gift like I believe we're all given some gift that the world is going to be benefited by. You have to have the courage to dig it out and share it with the world. That's right.
Yeah, I agree. I've done that, and I didn't really process what I was doing until I had done it, and then I looked back at it and thought, like, Wow. I just took this passion that I had and I rolled with it. I just went with it so hard, and I just made something brilliant out of it.
