Whether it be a normal compliment on a nice shirt and someone's beard or something silly like saying "Do you work at Subway? Because you look fresh!" the compliments put a smile on each person's face.
The coffee shop began in the DFW area but has locations across Dallas, Houston, and even one in Santa Monica, CA. The flagship location offers an internship for foster youth where they employ them and help build life skills.
The company's mission, or what they call a "thought process", is to normalize kindness and it starts with the first rule: "Our team spreads kindness to thousands of our guests and in our communities on a daily basis" the website states.
