Crushing It with Jennifer Hoff

Crushing It: Tess Barr

My next guest is truly crushing it. She's serving up a lot of stuff we could all use right now - from her award-winning wines to hand sanitizer to new music. This pillar of inspiration is coming at you from the Gorge and has the best encouragement, advice and laugh! Meet Tess Barr. 

Crushing It: Gloria Brown

My next guest is truly crushing it! She loves the outdoors - so much made history and became the first Black supervisor of a National Forest that happens to be in Oregon. She also wrote a new book detailing how she helped evolve the agency and confronted racial discrimination. Here's Gloria. 

Crushing It: Ila Borders

My guest is truly crushing it! She was the first woman since the Negro Leagues era to play professional men's baseball - she even has her own bobblehead! And now she's a firefighter and paramedic, helping put out Oregon's most recent devastating wildfires. 

Crushing It: Caprice Massey

My guest this week is truly crushing it. She keeps rising the ranks and is now one of the only female jail commanders, a Veteran, breast cancer survivor and mom. She's also playing a pivotal role in conversations about racism, activism and being a good human. Meet Caprice Massey. 

Crushing It: Kalpana Lubrano

This week's guest is truly crushing it! She owns nine fitness clubs in Portland and Vancouver and is a mom - keeping her gym members and kids safe during the pandemic. But it's how she became a gym owner that's really inspiring and centered around something her father did with just $20 when she was a kid. Meet Kalpana Lubrano.

Crushing It: Lisa Brumm

My guest this week is truly crushing it. Her decades of experience as a financial advisor are more important than ever as people are struggling in the pandemic. But beyond just dealing with money matters, her instincts and compassion are unique in the financial world. Meet Lisa Brumm. 

Crushing It: Nicole Apelian

My first guest this week is truly crushing it. She lives in Southwest Washington, is an herbalist, safari guide, mother - and she survived 57 days in the wild on the History Channel series 'Alone'. Here's Nicole Apelian.
