Once upon a time, I dreamt of you. So settle, so calm, so pure, so true! I carried you in every way! Holding tight to the faith of seeing you someday! Now here we are after years of prayers, patience, challenges, and the time of wait! Meeting face to face, not too soon, and not too late! Nice to finally meet you, Dream! You, are so much greater than what was held inside me as it may seem! Hand and hand joined together! We are about to experience something better! You’ve been guarded inside waiting to be released! Now it’s your time be groomed, trained, and increased! Up, up, and Away! It’s your time, Dream, to become all you may!
There’s something special about walking into a business and instantly feeling the love, energy, and passion behind it. That’s exactly what happened when Lesson in Everyday LLC stopped by Ice & Vice in Ridgeland for another impactful episode of Pass the Mic with LA.
Owned by Derrick and Bonita Mosley of Mosley Family Incorporated, Ice & Vice is more than a frozen dessert shop — it’s an experience built around community, family, creativity, and joy.
From Italian ice and frozen yogurt to ice cream and an endless variety of toppings, every customer has the chance to create something unique. During the interview, LA even tried bubble gum Italian ice topped with gummies and Nerds for the very first time — and let’s just say it lived up to the phrase “yummy to the tummy!”
One of the most exciting parts of the visit was learning about their mobile food trailer, which allows them to bring frozen treats and unforgettable memories directly to events across the region. Whether it’s a youth sports tournament, wedding, church youth camp, family reunion, company picnic, festival, or holiday celebration, Ice & Vice brings smiles everywhere they go.
Their slogan says it best: “When I dip. You dip. We dip!”
This episode highlighted the importance of supporting local businesses, celebrating entrepreneurship, and creating spaces where families and communities can connect.
If you’re ever in Ridgeland, Mississippi, Ice & Vice deserves a spot on your must-visit list.
What happens when you stop waiting for the perfect moment… and simply show up?
On the road in Texas, Pass The Mic Mobile Motivation with LA became more than a series—it became a movement. From bustling malls to quiet gas stations, from random sidewalks to unexpected conversations, every stop turned into an opportunity for connection, laughter, and purpose.
We met people from all walks of life—different backgrounds, different stories, but one shared truth: everyone has something worth saying.
There was no script. No set stage. Just real people, real moments, and a willingness to listen.
We laughed with strangers who quickly felt like family. We danced in spaces that weren’t meant for dancing. We shared encouragement in places people least expected it. And through it all, one thing became clear—purpose isn’t confined to a location… it moves wherever you go.
This journey reminded us that:
Connection is powerful
Presence is intentional
And every encounter carries a lesson
At Lesson In Everyday LLC, we believe there’s something to learn in every moment—you just have to be open to receive it.
So whether you’re watching from home or catching us on the road, this is your reminder: You don’t need a platform to make an impact… you just need to show up.
🎤 Because you never know where the mic—or your purpose—will find you next.
“There’s a lesson in every day… and sometimes, it’s found in the most unexpected places.” – LA
