Talib Jasir’s journey is a vibrant tapestry woven from community, creativity, and empowerment. Growing up in a rural setting under the care of his great-grandmother, Talib learned that true greatness lies not in individual accolades but in uplifting others. After nearly two decades in the pharmaceutical industry, he took a bold leap into life coaching, driven by a deep desire to support aspiring creatives. This passion ignited the creation of Afros and Audio in 2019—an online community that amplifies the voices of underrepresented podcasters. What started as a small gathering in Brooklyn has blossomed into a dynamic festival, now thriving in Baltimore, despite the challenges of funding and support often faced by founders of color.

But Talib’s impact doesn’t stop there. He champions the importance of self-care and reconnecting with nature, recognizing these practices as essential for sustaining creativity. Through his multifaceted initiatives, Talib Jasir inspires a new generation of creators, proving that our collective greatness flourishes when we show up for one another and share our stories.
