Michael Stewart-Isaacs aka The Coach

HIP HOP WALL ST, a project of Michael Stewart-Isaacs focused on social entrepreneurship, motivational speaking and lifestyle coaching, is emerging from beta and preparing for a full launch this year. Michael has been working with young people in Raleigh, NC, including youth at risk, using entrepreneurship as an educational and inspirational tool grounded in practical business information and tools.

For HIP HOP WALL ST:

"Hip-Hop culture is about aspiration, uncommon wisdom, and making the most of challenging situations, from dealing with difficult people to leveraging key relationships. The general objectives of our messages are to create a discussion with the hip hop generation about taking ownership of their future through a fundamental understanding of 'lifestyle entrepreneurship.'"

Michael Stewart-Isaacs' on Living the RAP Life

In the course of working with young people, Michael has been developing a curriculum and a set of principles or themes based on what he's finding works to reach kids where they're at and to help them advance in life. For example:

MESSAGE I. – Living the R.A.P. Life

a. REDEFINE: how learning tips from hip-hop pioneers can help us create a "new life" in a positive way.

b. AFFIRM: the concept of "trusting people" and how that trust can open the doors of human connection as a gateway to what is next in each of our lives.

c. PURSUE: the importance of living your life in excellence and consistency.
