#51. Kai-Lee Worsley: Inspired to transcend poverty

July 14, 2020 Kai-Lee Worsley is 22 year old student at NAIT and aspiring business leader from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. She grew up in a low-income household raised by her amazing single mother in one of the 6,000 affordable housing apartments managed by Edmonton’s Capital Region Housing Corporation. She boldly reached out to me one day on Linkedin having heard the podcast interview with Greg Dwelling, the CEO of Capital Region Housing Corp. She suggested that I might want to hear her story about growing up in so-called poverty and some of the opportunities she sees for people like herself to aspire to a better life and leave the intergenerational challenges of poverty behind. Kai Lee is currently working for Ruby Kaur, the owner of Block 1912 cafe on Whyte Avenue as the café’s social media manager. Her goal is to help the works of young artists especially those like her who have grown up in poverty and whose artist talents have a reason to be discovered by us all. Kai Lee is an inspiration to all of us to pursue your dreams and genuine happiness by simply celebrating the gifts of our spirit!
