This Founder Friday is a wild, unique, and refreshingly honest experience. Today we are going to be talking with the one and only  Sarah Barnett Gill, the owner of Mama Mocha's in Auburn, AL. Sarah has been in coffee since 2003 and for the last 7+ years has been operating one of the most unique, authentic, and welcoming coffee shops around. Mama Mocha's is a beacon of diversity, love, and simple honest enjoyment of people and coffee. In the pursuit of this Sarah has worked hard to grow her business from a small roastery in a $200/mo room of a bookstore to an established community icon of great coffee and charming hospitality that wins peoples hearts and taste buds. 

This conversation covers a wide range of topics from the expected to the quit un-expected. Sarah is not afraid to take bold stands and is equal parts serious business woman, and fun loving protector of the marginalized. Plus, like me, she loves a good dark roasted coffee. 

So, buckle up, this is going to be a refreshing and wild ride. 

 

You will lean about:

  • Starting small and building slowly 
  • Facing initial challenges
  • Rejecting the 3rd wave
  • Taking bold stances 
  • Diversity and Inclusivity  
  • Fighting cultural ignorance 
  • The balance between love and ass kicking
  • Establishing a Unique Culture
  • Dark roast revival 
  • Dealing with COVID and caring for your people
