Welcome to the Season 2 premiere of the Legacy Cultivators Podcast y’all!!

In this episode I sit down with Angie, founder of LumerianSky, for a conversation about homecoming, alignment, entrepreneurship, healing, and what it means to answer the call to return home.

Angie shares how an unexpected move to Haiti transformed her understanding of purpose and opened new possibilities for building businesses, reconnecting with the land, and helping others imagine a life in Haiti beyond the narratives they’ve inherited. The conversation weaves between the tangible and the spiritual, exploring what becomes possible when we trust ourselves, reconnect with our bodies and spirit, and rethink where true abundance and value live.

In this episode, we explore:

• Answering the call even when you can’t see the full path
• Reimagining Haiti beyond the narratives we’ve inherited
• Alignment, abundance, and redefining security beyond money
• Entrepreneurship and overlooked business opportunities in Haiti
• How the diaspora can contribute to rebuilding and creating new infrastructure
• Reframing our relationship with menstrual cycles and feminine power

This week’s episode is nothing short of a masterclass for creatives who are ready to step into their power as founders. I sat down with the powerhouse that is Nina Orm—a multi-passionate entrepreneur whose work moves at the intersection of art, culture, storytelling, and capital.

Nina has lived many lives—working in government doing policy work, pivoting into finance to sharpen her skills, and ultimately building platforms that bridge creativity and capital. Now, through Orm Muse Collective and The Agora Fund, she’s redefining how artists, filmmakers, fashion designers, and culture keepers access resources, funding, and visibility.

In this episode, we explore:

• The investor’s perspective—what funders are really looking for, and how creatives can pitch with clarity, confidence, and conviction.
• The mindset shift from freelancer to founder—why this one change can completely transform your sustainability as a creative.
• Knowing your numbers—the importance of knowing your numbers as a creative founder
• Diversifying income streams—from retainers to licensing and everything in between, Nina breaks down how creatives can stop trading time for money.
• A Next Renaissance—why we’re in a cultural moment that creatives can rise to shape what’s next.
• Aligned investment—how to identify and attract funders who not only understand your art but also align with your integrity and mission.

This conversation is a wake-up call for artists, entrepreneurs, and anyone building a legacy through creativity. Nina doesn’t just drop theory—she offers strategies, tools, and frameworks that creatives can use right now to grow, sustain, and expand their work without compromise.

Take notes. Replay it. Let it stretch your mindset.

In this episode of The Legacy Cultivators Podcast, I sit down with my sis, Linda Duverné — a certified trauma-informed mindfulness practitioner, flower essence practitioner, and Guardian of Haitian heritage. Together, we go deep into the vibrational medicine of flower essences, connecting with the ancestral wisdom in Haitian spirituality, and intergenerational healing, .

Linda shares her personal journey from growing up in a Haitian Christian household to reclaiming her spiritual heritage through the study and connection with Haitian Vodou, mindfulness, and ancestral connection. We discuss the often unspoken rituals woven into everyday life, the power of reconnecting with family traditions, and how flower essences serve as powerful allies for emotional, spiritual, and energetic empowerment.

This episode is a beautiful exchange on the importance of listening to our intuition, honoring the wisdoms within our cultures and from our benevolent ancestors/elders, and working with accessible tools that resonate with our unique journeys — especially within Melanated & Immigrant communities.

If you've ever felt the pull toward reconnecting with your roots, hearing about Haitian heritage, or discovering holistic tools like flower essences, this conversation is a nourishing entry point.
