Azzees’ Journey
Aspiring Actor as a Young Girl, Political Career, Building a Social Enterprise and Passion for Helping Young People
with Azzees Minott
Welcome to another episode of the Journey Podcast!
In today’s episode, I’m having a conversation with Azzees Minott, who is a Director, Facilitator and Chief Operating Officer at 2-3 Degrees, the award-winning social enterprise committed to inspiring and empowering young people to fulfill their potential through engaging in confidence building and skills enhancing workshops and programmes across the UK.
Since March 2016, they have worked with over 9,000 young people across the country, including reaching over 500 young people online during Covid-19 restrictions.
I first met Azzees years ago when she came to one of my Yoga classes where we both worked at the time. When I started this podcast, Azzees came to mind immediately and I have been trying to schedule this interview with her since January, so I’m beyond excited to share this episode with you today!
In our conversation, you’ll hear what her childhood was like as a British born young black girl, how she developed her political career as a young woman, and building her social enterprise with her university friend…. whilst working full-time.
