EPIC Everyday

Co-Founded by Cara Johnson-Graves and Jenae Johnson-Carr

We are Cara & Jenae, the Co-founders of EPIC EVERYDAY, Inc. We are sisters, wives, moms, and HBCU grads from the Midwest. 

The birth of EPIC EVERYDAY occurred during a discussion regarding the importance of inclusion between us. We were fed up with seeing the same princess and a handful of melanated images. Not to mention our brown boys were even more limited in positive images in daily life. We were disheartened that we couldn't find apparel, accessories, and home goods that highlighted black brilliance. We were extremely disappointed by the lack of relatable mocha-hued images in stores and online. 

The lack of true inclusion is the reason we intentionally wanted to change the narrative. Upon recognizing the extreme lack of diversity, we made a conscientious decision to design a positive self- reflection collection to inspire the next generation. It inspired us to turn under-represented into elevating the visibility of brown boys and girls.
