Ep#5 Monica Sunny of The Chai Box on Being Brown & Bold with Jes Thomas

Being Brown and Bold

Monica Sunny is the founder and CEO of The Chai Box, an ethical and sustainable tea company that specializes in hand-blended loose-leaf chai blends and small-batch chai concentrate. Previously, Monica Sunny worked as a human organizational consultant for Chick-Fil-A where she designed training models, conducted ROI analyses and built competency models for the company's hiring practices. The journey of creating The Chai Box started when Monica had her three boys and wanted to instill the love of Chai. Her family started sharing this ritual with family and friends which ultimately led to the creation of The Chai Box. What started as a side-hustle in her basement has now grown to a full operation in Marietta, GA. In 2021, The Chai Box was selected as one of Oprah's Favorite Things. And most recently, Monica was given a grant and mentorship opportunity with the Tory Burch Foundation and Stacy's Rise Project.
