Bio: 
My name is Ralphe Jean-Poix and I am a Senior Leadership Development Specialist for Suncoast Credit Union. My passion is developing leaders to reach their full potential through seminars and workshops to create alignment while identifying your why. I was born in Cap-Haitien and moved to the states at the age of 9. I gained my Finance degree from the University of South Florida with the hopes of becoming a Financial Advisor. After working for a mutual fund investment firm for two years, I realized that I was not fulfilling my why. It’s definitely ok to pivot and come up with a new plan and that’s exactly what I did. I am currently facilitating courses on Public Speaking, Critical Thinking, Communication, Coaching, Strategies, and Motivation. I take joy in helping our staff discover and fine tune what’s already inside of them. We all are capable of far more than we are currently doing and my goal is to turn potential energy into kinetic energy.

Ep. 19 Bethsy Plaisir | Rezon nou dwe li plis | Motivasyon

My name is Bethsy Plaisir, I am a Christian woman, married, and an avid reader. I am also a bookstagrammer and booktuber.
I started posting the books I read on my personal IG towards the end of 2018, and in 2019 I would do reviews of books I read on my IG stories.
Concurrently, I found a corner of youtube called booktube, where there was an underground world of people who basically review, and recommend books.
After watching my favorite booktuber for a whole year, I decided to join in and create my own space.
I mainly read books by people of color, and since I'm Haitian, during the month of May and June I read books by Haitian authors or books on Haiti.
I started this in 2019, and continued it when I created my own bookstagram (bethsysreadingjourney) with the hashtag Haitian Reads.
