Getting your local coffee community to come together can be a powerful way to build networks, friendships, and careers. This is what today’s guests have made their mission.

Javier Alvarez and Joseph W. Gonzalez are long time professional baristas who founded Espresso State of Mindin 2017 to give their fellow baristas a platform to showcase talents, meet one another, and excel in their careers. Besides consulting, content creation, and catering, their main focus is on hosting latte art throw downs.

In our discussion today we are going to get an inside look into Espresso State of Mind and walk away motivated by the lessons they have learned, the advice they give for starting something in your own community, and the passion and drive they express for just going out and making your dreams a reality.

Enjoy!
