Building Raw Kickz: Betting on Yourself in a Hype-Driven World

On this episode of Coffee Monday, Rae sits down with Jorge Cornejo, Founder of Raw Kickz, who’s built a business at the intersection of culture, hustle, and knowing what’s next before everyone else does.From flipping sneakers to tapping into viral products (yes, even the latest NeeDoh stress toy craze), Jorge shares how he turned instinct and passion into a thriving brand rooted in trust and authenticity. He breaks down how Raw Kickz grew from a side hustle into a go-to source for sneakers and streetwear, and what it takes to stand out in a space where trends move fast and credibility is everything.The conversation also dives into Jorge’s current mindset shift, his “year of saying yes,” and what it looks like to stop holding back, take bigger swings, and lean fully into opportunity, both personally and professionally.If you’re building something, betting on yourself, or just want a pulse on what’s hot right now, this episode delivers.
