Yohan Ferdinando is a savvy entrepreneur who has experience in multiple fields including finance, logistics, tech, consumer services, and most recently in the food industry. As an early hire at Postmates, he helped to build the operational infrastructure of a company which is now operating in nearly 50 markets and most recently raised $140 million in funding at a $600 million dollar valuation. His most recent venture is in the packaged goods industry, in which he hopes to change the face of the frozen meal aisle at your local grocery store. Short Eats promotes the discovery of traditional dishes by connecting you with the cooks who grew up with them. His first line of Short Eats products will be available at “Becoming Your Own Boss” to taste, and will soon be on the shelves at local and regional stores.
Rev. Ereletheia Allen is the Founder and Chairperson of Focused on Your Future Christian Life Ministries, Inc. (FoYFCLM), a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of women around the world. Rev. Allen’s heart’s desire is to see women of all walks of life embrace their unique God-given purpose and their immeasurable worth. FoYFCLM’s programs are geared toward meeting the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of women. Rev. Allen saw the need for such a ministry after years of struggling with her own identity and purpose. As she began to embrace her identity and purpose, she was able to see that there were many other women struggling with those same issues. Furthermore, she began to see that there were many women who fail to pursue their life’s dreams simply because of their fears and insecurities. These discoveries caused Rev. Allen to make it her life’s work to help women discover and embrace their unique purpose and worth. Today, Rev. Allen and FoYFCLM impacts lives of women around the world through their programs which include: Suits4Success, Feed A Family, Women of Purpose Women of Worth, #UniquelyMade Scholarship and the annual I AM Who God Says I AM Women’s Conference.
