February was an incredible month as we celebrated Black History with a series of engaging and inspiring events. One of the highlights of the month was our focus on promoting black-owned businesses. We were privileged to invite Vivian J, the founder and owner of Xpressive Mocha, to share her entrepreneurial journey with us. Vivian's story of perseverance and creativity was both motivating and insightful. Our Heartists were thrilled to hear about her experiences and sample her exquisite handmade products, which truly embodied the spirit of craftsmanship and dedication. In addition, we featured teas from Steepers Only in our cafeteria, allowing everyone to enjoy the rich flavors and support this fantastic black-owned business. Our weekly trivia winners were delighted to receive prizes from various other black-owned businesses, further celebrating their contributions and success. No celebration is complete without a delicious feast! In honor of Black History Month, our talented culinary team curated two exceptional lunches, drawing inspiration from the rich and diverse culinary traditions rooted in Black culture. February also marked our third annual "Give a Little Joy" fundraiser. This heartwarming initiative encouraged our Heartists to give cuddly gifts to their loved ones, with all proceeds going to One Family Illinois. The event was a beautiful reminder of the power of giving and the joy it can bring to others.? #Swissotel #BHM #Heartists

Shout out to Steepers Only founder Angelica for personally dropping off some of her amazing tea after I told her I was coming down with a cold. Of course, that's your name because you're a literal ANGEL ?? . I LOVE Chicago-based brands and here's a little bit more about her and her brand story. Steepers Only began after Angelica discovered the benefits of antioxidants during an internship. Inspired by her entrepreneurial mother and a family mission trip to Kenya, she now uses her food science degree to create custom blends with superfood ingredients. They can be purchased on their website below or on Amazon. I love the Ginger Turmeric Lemonade personally ?? I've seen her at Startup CPG events, Specialty Food Association's Fancy Food Show and more recently at our Female Founders brunch in LA.?The best part of this space is seeing such lovely faces over and over again unified with the single mission to bring better-for-you products to market. ?? https://steepersonly.com/
