About Me

Talib Jasir is a storyteller, founder, visionary, author, podcast producer, life coach, and consultant. He was born a twin in Baltimore, MD, and spent his earliest years traversing the backwoods of Maryland’s Eastern Shore under the guardianship of his great-grandmother. Raised by a village of irrepressible folk, he learned the necessity of community, the meaning of love (as a verb), and the impact of words.

Talib is a creative entrepreneur with over 19 years of professional experience managing accounts in marketing and advertising. In 2018, he founded the Afros & Audio Podcast Festival, the first two-day conference for and by independent Black podcast creatives and audio professionals. In 2021, Afros & Audio expanded with the Vanguard Podcast Network and a partnership with the Black Podcasters Association, an online podcasting community. Talib produces original storytelling podcasts and audio stories for nonprofits.

He is also a dual-certified Mindset and Productivity Coach and a registered RYT-200 Yoga Teacher Trainer.

Talib received his BA in Public Policy/Urban Studies, Africana Studies, and Social Justice (Summa Cum Laude) from St. Peter’s University in Jersey City, NJ.
