"Whales don't belong in a pond!" This episode highlighting Black History in Fashion is sponsored by our friends at State Farm. Like a good neighbor, State Fram is there.  In this episode of The CHECK-IN, NeAndre sits down with luxury designer Rich Fresh. Fresh shares that his underdog mentality is really what's propelled him to the status he has today.  Originally from Memphis, Fresh moved to LA to pursue his dream of becoming a top brand in fashion.  A triggering moment for him was a conversation he had at home, prior to moving to LA.  He was asked why he'd move to be a minnow in the ocean, when he's already a big fish in a pond? He said "whales don't belong in a pond."  Well, fast forward and he's designing wardrobe for movies, red carpets, celebrity weddings, you name it!  Take a listen and see how his story relates to yours!
