​Janaye Hardy (CEO of Modern Mindset Life Coaching, LLC) & Lola B. Morgan
​(CEO of A Griot's Corner, LLC) are the Co-Founders of The Modern Griot Corporation. 
​
When the pandemic hit in 2020, these ladies gathered together to launch the “MLK EXPO & Juneteenth Jam” in 2021, where they implemented ways to rebuild the structure and mentality of how local businesses could thrive while formulating necessary resources for the people of existing communities to do so as well. 

​These events focused on personal development, where services such as mental health to career preparedness were offered as a one-stop shop to care for yourself and your families. These ladies decided to further their efforts by launching The Modern Griot Corporation, established August 2022.
