Hear rapper, runner, and multi-talented "essential provider" Paul Summers (aka Cuarenta Porter or "Forty") talk about childhood in Indianapolis and the staggering violence he witnessed growing up in a poor neighborhood, how he cared for his uncle from a young age after a tragic paralyzation and how that experience caused him to become passionate about care giving and helping folks with disabilities and special needs, how he became interested in poetry and the evolution to his current hip hop career, his struggle with being overweight and the incredible story of how he eventually lost nearly 250 lbs., how running helped turn things around and continues to be a major focus today, his Greyhound bus journey to Oregon and the first time seeing the Pacific Ocean while looking over Coos Bay, what it means to be an "essential provider" for his community, and much more!  Follow along: @iamcuarenta music.apple.com/us/artist/cuarenta-porter  Brought to you by the Aimsir Distilling Company, a new distillery focused on great flavors and a warm environment.  They love the way spirits taste, but more importantly, they love that they bring people together to make memories, build bridges, and crystalize the moment. Opening in Spring 2020 in NE Portland.  Follow @aimsirdistilling
