Ryan Levy, the winemaker and owner of Nice Winery in Houston, Texas, shares the story behind their philanthropic efforts. For the past decade, Nice Winery has produced and sold a special rosé wine, with all proceeds supporting The Rose, a breast center of excellence. This initiative began when breast cancer survivor Emma Jacobs approached Ryan with a bold challenge to use his winemaking for a cause. 

During this mashup episode, you'll hear from Ryan, his mother Gail Levy, and Alexis Rogers from the Emma Jacobs Foundation. They discuss the impact of their contributions and the importance of early detection. Felicia May describes her positive interactions with The Rose and the benefits of their services.
