Entrepreneur, Mentor & Community Leader
Ronald Joyner is a dedicated entrepreneur, mentor, and community advocate who has transformed his life’s experiences into a mission to uplift and inspire. As Co-Owner of The Kompound, a custom clothing manufacturing store in Queens, NY, and CEO of Catch22Logistics, a last-mile delivery service contracted with UPS, he is a testament to the power of resilience, redemption, and reinvention.
He is also the host of the HOODTHERAPY Podcast, a platform committed to breaking false narratives that often discourage inner-city youth from striving for success. Through open and honest conversations, he challenges the misconceptions that where you come from dictates where you can go.
Beyond business, Ronald Joyner is a community organizer and mentor, giving back through holiday meal programs, coat drives, and back-to-school giveaways—ensuring that the next generation has the support they need to succeed. His dedication to youth outreach and community reentry has led him to speak at Delaware University, Rutgers University, and various community-based organizations, where he shares his personal journey of overcoming challenges, making better choices, and creating a life of purpose and impact.
As a father to sons, a husband, and a leader, his experiences have shaped him into the man he is today, guiding him to become a better father, partner, and mentor to those looking for a second chance. At the 25th Anniversary of the World Natural Hair, Health & Beauty Show, he will take the stage on The Good Man Panel to share his powerful story—one of transformation, accountability, and the commitment to helping young men avoid the mistakes he made.
His journey proves that change is possible, success is attainable, and every man has the power to rewrite his future. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear his raw, real, and inspiring message!
