  Timothy Orey | JXN Run Club

  Aug 7, 202619 min

  On today's show, we're talking with Timothy Orey about how JXN Run Club grew from four friends at the Mississippi Museum of Art into the engine behind the 601 Day race — a race that sold out twice and pulled runners in from six states. It's a conversation built around the phrase he coined years ago and still lives by: that every pace is legal. TRANSCRIPT: https://www.visitjackson.com/blog/soul-sessions-timothy-orey

  Mary Sanders Ferriss Cavicchhi | Ferris & Co.

  Jul 24, 202621 min

  Mary Sanders Ferriss Cavicchi, founder of Ferriss and Company, returns to Soul Sessions to talk about stewarding Jackson landmarks like Campbell's Bakery and Hal & Mal's, restoring the Kennington Mansion in Belhaven, and mentoring the next generation of designers through Downtown Jackson Partners' Urban Design Studio. She traces her love of historic preservation back to Babalu at Duling School and a mentorship with the late Bill Latham. The conversation covers what makes a small space feel intentional rather than just big, why Hal & Mal's still unifies Jackson across generations, and what's next for her firm — including work for the restaurant Josette, opening in Fondren this fall.
