معلومات عن هذه الحلقة
In this episode of Just So You Know, Jamie and Justina sit down with Nemanja Golubovic, founder and CEO of Kale My Name, to talk about what it really means to use your platform for purpose.
This conversation goes deeper than surface level takes. From building one of Chicago’s most recognized vegan restaurants to becoming a bold and unapologetic voice for animal advocacy online, Nemanja opens up about balancing business, activism, authenticity, and social media growth in today’s digital world.
We get into:
• Building an ethical business without compromising your values
• Using social media as a tool for activism and impact
• Why authenticity is the key to growth online
• The challenges of being outspoken as a business owner
• Balancing profitability with purpose
• How veganism transformed Nemanja’s life and mindset
• Dealing with criticism, trolls, and public backlash
• Why storytelling creates stronger connection than marketing
• Growing a brand through vulnerability and honesty
• What it means to be a true multi-hyphenate entrepreneur
This isn’t just about social media or running a restaurant. It’s about courage, conviction, and choosing to build something that reflects exactly who you are.
If you’ve ever wondered how to turn your voice into impact… build with integrity… or use your platform for something bigger than yourself,
this episode is for you.
