So how do you go from a Target Intern to having your own stationary brand on all Target shelves across the country? Jasmin Foster did it and she's here to tell her story.

As a kid, Jasmin Foster never dreamed of becoming an entrepreneur. She was ambitious, curious, and determined to climb the corporate ladder. A college internship at Target changed her life and eventually led her to a growing career as a top buyer at the company, where she became the "entrepreneur's best friend." After switching industries and helping small businesses grow their sales, the Pandemic hit and Jasmin had some time to reflect on where she was going and what she was truly interested in. Her stationary and homeware company, Be Rooted, was born and she hasn't looked back since.

Listen in as Jasmin shares her story of resiliency, leaning into one's strengths while also taking BIG risks, the ups and downs of navigating BIG RETAIL, and why giving up has never been an option for her.
