Proving that heart plays a vital role in any story of success is the stylish Sole Play in Atlanta, a sneaker shop that is so much more than a sneaker shop. During a visit to the South’s cultural capital, Sole Play owner and entrepreneur Anthony “T.J.” Bennett gives Janet a tour of the shop’s iconic sneaker vault and explains how his business and its non-profit arm the Sole Circle Foundation combines fashion, gaming, and mental health into an unparalleled shopping experience. At Sole Play, an underserved community has a home. And so do weary travelers in need of a fresh look.

In the shadow of the Los Angeles skyline, a few short blocks informally known as the Piñata District shine bright with vibrant colors, candy, and culture. The story of this neighborhood is a story of unlikely partnerships in which a business woman unexpectedly finds herself making artisanal piñatas, and a family inspires a whole new generation of immigrant merchants. This unique business ecosystem shows what happens when business owners focus on collaboration rather than competition, recognizing that a rising tide lifts all boats.
