Episode 162 - "Tasting Through the Lifecycle" with Chavonne White, a Personal Development Coach, Psychology Student, Author, and Licensed Cosmetologist

This episode features a conversation with Chavonne White, a Licensed Cosmetologist, Personal Development Coach, Author, and Wine Enthusiast dedicated to helping people live authentically. She is the creator of I Am ME (My Essence) and the author of publications called "The Unveiling of a Queen" and "Embody & Elevate: Your Guide to Self-Love; The Best Love”. We talk about her foundational presentation, "Tasting Through the Life Cycle,” that was featured at the 2025 Crafted for Action conference. She outlines some creative and interesting parallels between winemaking with human development combining her studies of both wine and psychology. We also dive into the inspiration for her newest series, "Uncorked & Conscious,” which is an intimate conversation experience centered on the relationships that shape us. You’ll hear why Chavonne is dedicated to creating spaces where transformation feels both approachable and empowering in a bold, relatable, and authentic way. And while her wine journey and wine education are relatively new endeavors, she has already formed solid connections within the Atlanta wine community as a member of The Hue Society. We talk about how the ATL wine community experiences have exponentially elevated her curiosity, her appreciation, and her desire to learn more about wine.
