Popcorn and the Power of Letting Go with Chauniqua Major

In this Building a Business on Your Own Terms episode, Sarah is joined by Chauniqua Major, affectionately known as Major. Major is a dynamic creative based in Orlando, Florida. Her unwavering commitment to doing good work powers her to achieve remarkable feats in her community. She is the founder of Whatever’s Good, a PR and marketing shop, and the Chief Snack Officer of Major's Project Pop, an award-winning popcorn company that ships nationwide.

 

This conversation covers everything from Major’s indirect path into the world of Food CPG to when she realized she would have to change her mindset around what success looks like. 

 

Sarah and Major discuss:

  • How Major’s personal food journey lead to the creation of Major’s Project Pop

  • The importance of being ready for an opportunity, and the value in saying “not now”

  • The conversations with her husband and her mentor that lead to her “divorcing” herself from her business

  • What the future holds for Major’s Project Pop, and the power of asking “what if?”
