Making Good is the podcast of Church Alley—a small business in New Orleans, LA. This podcast talks about all things small business, including nutrition, challenges, and learning from each other. We hope to share information and conversations that empower small business owners to take care of themselves so they can make good on serving their communities. Church Alley opened as a cafe in 2013, serving delicious locally roasted coffee, homemade pastries, and lunch. In 2020, we expanded our offerings by partnering with over a dozen local small businesses looking for new ways to stay in business. We met so many amazing people doing good work and we couldn’t keep the conversations to ourselves! The cafe closed in November 2024. Church Alley continues as a pantry line that can be found around New Orleans and as a small nutrition & habits coaching business. Small business owners face higher rates of autoimmune disease and are more likely to be dyslexic and have ADHD than the general population. This podcast shares good information for small business owners to take care of themselves so they can keep serving.

In this episode, I spoke with Renard Bridgewater, MACCNOs Community Engagement Coordinator, about the organization's origin, purpose, and how they met the moment when the COVID-19 pandemic hit our city's musicians and artists hard.
Since 2012, the Music and Culture Coalition of New Orleans (MACCNO) has been organizing, empowering, and advocating with New Orleans musicians, artists, traditional culture bearers, and other members and allies of the cultural community.
Renard Bridgewater is a native New Orleanian and graduate of both Holy Cross High School and the University of New Orleans. As a tenured veteran in the city's Hip-Hop community (performing under the moniker Slangston Hughes) and previous participant in Sweet Home New Orleans' Accessing Artist Revenue Streams course, he has a passion for live music and artist empowerment and continues to pass on the knowledge he has gained to help empower his peers. This is utilized in his Uniquity (yoo-knik-wi-tee) Music imprint, which provides a performance platform for regional/touring bands and local Hip-Hop, R&B, and Spoken Word artists, as well as providing music publishing for local artists and facilitating workshops that cultivate professional development in the music industry. He joins us after nearly fourteen years with The Times-Picayune, where he worked in HR and production.
