The Avodah Story
The Avodah Story:
First Steps
In the vibrant corridors of 1993, fresh out of high school, K.A. Perkins embarked on a journey that would redefine the intersection of faith, hip-hop, and urban fashion. With the creation of God Incorporated, Perkins introduced a clothing line that was more than just fabric and thread—it was a bold statement, a blend of spiritual belief and the pulsating beats of hip-hop culture. Between 1993 and 1997, Perkins wasn’t just designing clothes; he was crafting a narrative, writing poetry, and organizing conferences that delved deep into the intersections of religion, urban culture, and artistic expression.
Learning and Growth
Fast forward to 2000, three years after graduating from Central State University, Perkins ventured into a new realm—publishing. With the self-publication of his first book, "Off the Top of His Mind," a collection of poems, he dipped his toes into the vast ocean of publishing and personal development. This was a pivotal moment. The academic world had not equipped him with the real-world skills he needed. But Perkins was a quick learner. He understood what it took to navigate corporate culture and was eager to further explore the realms of business, personal, and professional development.
Evolution of a Visionary
Over the next two decades, Perkins was on a mission. He sought to amalgamate everything he was passionate about—from artistic expression to career development—into one cohesive entity. This led to the formation of Empowering Life, a publishing and professional development company, and the evolution of G and P Unlimited Company, an urban fashion brand that continued to thrive and adapt to the changing times.
The Birth of Hustle Culture
Then, the world changed. The pandemic struck, upending lives and businesses across the globe. During this tumultuous period, Perkins, now a celebrated educator, speaker, and corporate executive, penned a book that encapsulated the essence of his life’s learnings. "Hustle Culture" was not just a book; it was the culmination of years of experiences, skills, competencies, and principles that Perkins had mastered to navigate personal and professional challenges.
As he wrote "Hustle Culture," an epiphany struck. Hustle culture was more than a concept confined within a book’s pages. It was a blueprint, a manifesto for a new beginning. This realization led to the birth of Hustle Culture Co., a brand that would stand at the confluence of creativity and meaningful products and services. Perkins envisioned a brand that would embody the hustle spirit and empower individuals to navigate their personal and professional lives with resilience and purpose.
