Speaker 1: to have the house to ourselves, you know what I'm

170
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 1: talking about, get back into that grown folk business. Not

171
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,720
Speaker 1: so much. You know, ain't no much bickering between Tony

172

Speaker 1: and Lisa's more husband and kissing and being created to

173
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 1: bring that romantic spark back into their life type of situation. Um.

174
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: And then the kids come back home and we miss

175
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 1: them again, and then we want them going again. So

176
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 1: you know, it's kind of a roller coaster ride, uh,

177
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: you know, because these these kids is quite especially our boy.

178
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: Our boy comes with a few a few surprises, you

179
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: guys learned right out the gate. I believe its few

180
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: surprise you know. You know what I'm talking about. Grandpa

181
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 1: cares things like that. We keep it about Okay, real

182
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: issues angel, Angel, Okay here you know. But but to

183
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: be honest, he explained that pretty pretty, don't give him

184
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 1: that much credit. Please don't give him that much credit.

185
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: I'm how to give the guy from credit. Ida, baby boy,

186
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: don't don't do that. Don't do that. Yeah, we've do

187
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,000
Speaker 1: we do. That's when we're working again. Another one of

188
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: Guy's plans. That's another one of Guy's plans. But no,

189
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: we um, you know. For for Lesa, I mean, it's true,

190
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: the kids are now, they're going off to college. We're

191
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: just adjusting to you know, we're adjusting to life without

192
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,560
Speaker 1: them being in our space as much and realizing that,

193
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: you know, maybe we might be a little older than

194
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: we thought, because I think half the time we can't

195
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: even keep up the family to really do the things

196
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: we thought we would be able to do. Um. You know.

197
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 1: And then my character Lisa, she she's always been going

198
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: back and forth. She's, you know, of course, she takes

199
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: care of home, she takes care of the care of

200
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,319
Speaker 1: house and home. But now that the kids are gone,

201
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: she's kind of, you know, trying to find a hop

202
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: she's kind of trying to figure out what to do

203
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: with it. Like which you know, it's something that I

204
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: hear that a lot of parents go through where it's

205
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: kind of like they're trying to basically reinvent themselves, you know,

206
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: with you know, because you know she had such a

207
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: major part of your life. Oh yeah, I have fun

208
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 1: this season with the with the change it well, I

209
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: can tell that. Now. I want to talk a little

210
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 1: bit about your your career, some of the some of

211
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 1: the other experiences that you had a long way because

212
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: I'm a big soap opera fan, and what will you

213
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: that the whole the lifestyle and the and the and

214
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: the work that you have to put in as a

215
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: soap opera star. How's that different from a sitcom? Ohly,

216
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: it's just a totally different um tone of honestly, because,

217
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: to be truthful, one most soap operas, at least someone

218
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: I was on The Young and the Restless um and

219
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: you know, I'll go back every now and then, but

220
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: we do one take pretty much one take of every scene.

221
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 1: And you know, I played a lawyer, a very busy

222
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: lawyer with a lot of legal jargons. And you know,

223
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: I'm also I'm also pretty much a perfectionist. You know,

224
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: A perception is to an extent because I also understand that,

225
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: you know, as an artist of someone who's expressed it

226
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: and you want to create you Also, there's something very

227
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: special about being in the moment, but also perfessionally. So

228
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: for me, I honestly have no social life, which isn't

229
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: really a problem because even before the show I really

230
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: didn't either. Actually, especially the three or four no I was.

231
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: I was really on a front burner story they call

232
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: it on social five or six years. I definitely, I

233
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: mean I barely stepped outside of the house. I was

234
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: always reading a script, you know that, especially after they

235
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: created a family around my character. So, I mean I

236
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: love it. I mean the characters are classic. Most of

237
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: the Young the Wrestlers have been on for like forty

238
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: something years. You know, I heard of because we've all

239
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: been seeing these characters, whether we realize it or not,

240
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: in our Parisio for for years, for decades. Yeah. I

241
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: grew up with a young in the Wrestler Classic, grew

242
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: up on that General Hospital, those two shows I grew up. Yeah,

243
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: so now you did something with Melissa McCarthy, you know,

244
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: on the show Nobody's on TV Land. You know the

245
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: thing about a talent like her, which I'm a big

246
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 1: fan of Melissa. This is a human being. I'm a

247
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 1: big fan of her. Just put the town on aside,

248
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: how I'm working, what what what tips are you know?

249
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 1: Working with after a comedy legend because of what she's

250
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: done in such a short period. Mm hmm. Yeah, that

251
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: that was awesome to just be in her vicinity. Most

252
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: of my scenes and my direct scenes were actually with

253
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: Mark Paul Gosser from UM Paved by the Bell would

254
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 1: know him that's back, So we we were actually a

255
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 1: show within a show, so we played husband and wife

256
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 1: on the show within the show UM. But to be

257
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: around such comedy geniuses and legends, we just realized, honestly,

258
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: most people are just having fun and a lot of

259
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: the a lot of the jokes and a lot of

260
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: the moments and the beats that we signed to be

261
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 1: so funny are a lot of times just their their

262
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 1: moments that we're just happened in just off the top

263
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 1: of their don't which is always amazing. So I realized

264
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: for sports, for that to happen and much it's comes

265
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: from a place of confidence. So you know, no matter

266
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 1: what you're doing, confidence is always kind of the foundation

267
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 1: that it needs to be built time, because here's the

268
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: grapes just have have They have that confidence and maybe

269
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 1: it's not natural, but it's definitely built. Okay, cool hey,

410
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: you eventually realize I'm on to something. Well, you know, um,

411
00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: the first, the first party I ever did, I was

412
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: tall because the company at the time they were short

413
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 1: of dancing. And one of my half brothers he called

414
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: me up and was like, you know, he knew I

415
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 1: could dance. He was just like, man, we need somebody,

416
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: you know, right away, And he knew I was close

417
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,400
Speaker 1: in the area. So I went over there and got

418
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: over there and and I get there and it's inside

419
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 1: of this big nightclub, you know they were. They took

420
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: over the entire nightclub, right about the entire place. And

421
00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,879
Speaker 1: I get there and I look on stage and I'm

422
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:02,360
Speaker 1: just like, what is it like his fifty and birthday

423
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,440
Speaker 1: or something like, you know, what is it? He pretty

424
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,440
Speaker 1: said no, He pointed to to the to the young man.

425
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: It was like, it's his party. And I was just

426
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,679
Speaker 1: blown away, Like I couldn't believe that it was a

427
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 1: thirteen year old kids party with you know, all those adults,

428
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 1: all those kids singing and dancing, and I just could

429
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: not believe it. I was. I was blown away. I

430
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,479
Speaker 1: did that. I didn't really know anything about or anything

431
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 1: in the Jewish community, you know, I really didn't, and

432
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: it just blew my mind. And then I put in

433
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: putting a little little research to find out what it

434
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 1: was really about. And when I learned that it wasn't

435
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 1: just about throwing a big party. It was about a commandment,

436
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: you know, from God, the big religious duty that you know,

437
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,199
Speaker 1: a good deed that the kid had to do. This

438
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 1: was something that was a part of their religion. And

439
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: I thought that was beautiful. I thought it was amazing

440
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: to celebrate a coming of age party that way. You know,

441
00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 1: I just thought it was amazing. It was. It was,

442
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 1: you know, like like what I like to say today.

443
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,479
Speaker 1: It was a party with purpose. It wasn't just like, okay,

444
00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,359
Speaker 1: you know a sweet sixteen. You know, I get it,

445
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: you know it super sweet sixteen. But this is something

446
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: you can only do one time with a kid, you know,

447
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: um and you know it. Truly, it wasn't always like

448
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: this for me. It wasn't you know, I didn't. I didn't.

449
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: It wasn't always called the King of the miss was.

450
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,159
Speaker 1: I had no idea that I would be doing you know,

451
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: private events the way that we're doing. Um, no, no,

452
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 1: because I can't let you miss steps that. Okay. You

453
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,919
Speaker 1: came in as a as a dancer. Okay, you're dancing.

454
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: Now you're not. You're not the king of about miss

489
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,199
Speaker 1: I want to I'll be remiss if I don't talk

490
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,199
Speaker 1: about the Kwoe Hope Foundation and the short synopsis tell

493
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: and one se three. Uh, it's the QUO Foundation. And

494
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: I'm just really using using myself in my life experiences

495
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: to influence young young kids and just into influence adults

496
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: that they can. There's always room for change. And my

497
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: story is to help really um remove people from the

498
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 1: communities that they're in, remove people from the communities that

499
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: they're in, remove them from the mind state that they're in.

500
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 1: More so, remove them from the mind of state at

501
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: they're hand. Because I was in that same mindsetate I

502
00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 1: thought it was just about a certain thing. So my

503
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,920
Speaker 1: my goal is to continue to go out speak because

504
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: I do speak, engage with why go and just inspire

505
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: the kids with my life story. You know, I went

506
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,040
Speaker 1: back and got much e d two years ago. I

507
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: went back, you know what I mean. I tell them

508
00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 1: my entire story. So it's to really help change the

509
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: trajectory of our young youth and to so that they

510
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 1: can make better choices. My job has inspired them, to

511
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: encourage them to do better and to be better. That

512
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: is my job and I'm gonna always do that As

513
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: a black man, I'm gonna be that black man that

514
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: can inspire people. They can inspire the kids. And I

515
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: want to show the different white people and I want

516
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,560

00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: in New York. Um, I'm born and raised there. The

575
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 1: culture you see everything in Brooklyn from what you remember,

576
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: it is not even the same Brooklyn. I know it's

577
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: a different Brooklyn now. I know. I went up there.

578
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: Our friend of mine, he has a little mini donut shop,

579

588
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: off the top, and we're gonna talk about your life

589
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: and uh, what makes you special? Because they come on

590
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: money making conversations. Your story is unique and it's about entrepreneurship.

591
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,719
Speaker 1: But more importantly, your story is about empowerment, female empowerment.

592
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: Why is female empowerment so important today? I mean, I

593
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: definitely feel like there's so many different routes that you

594
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: could take as a female. Mean, growing up in Brooklyn,

595
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: I could have taken a different route, and I had

596
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 1: people around me that was encouraging me to do better.

597
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: And I feel like female empowerment is very, very important

598
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: because there's certain things that a male can teach you,

599
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 1: but there's more things that a female can teach you

600
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,760
Speaker 1: because they're going through the same processes that you probably

601
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: went through. And I think it's so important for us

602
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: to kind of spread the word and like start working

603
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: together and noticing that it's no longer it's not this

604
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: date of a competition. We need to start collaborating more.

605
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: How do you how do you collaborate? How does that

606
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 1: make it happen? Because we know that, I mean in

607
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: my mind, and collaboration isn't just helping in any way. Like,

608
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 1: if you have a platform that you're able to give

609
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: back to, you need to get back and you need

610
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: to be able to help that other younger generation come up.

611
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: You know, I've been fortunate to be able to have

612
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: that guidance um as I was growing up and I

613
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 1: was able to give back to young women that wanted

630
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,920

Speaker 1: your own skin. We're speaking about beauty where it's like

636
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,720
Speaker 1: finding your shade, finding you're happy. We're we're speaking about

637
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,399

00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:02,080

647
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: of being a woman. You can come get your nails done,

648
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,120

652
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: of events. Now, you know what, miss Murdock, this is

653
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,239

Speaker 1: I'm over talking, I'm gonna stop and let you sell

655
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 1: your brand. Now. This is the Envision Festival, which is

656
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:49,239
Speaker 1: an industry city October tween. Yeah, And what made me

657
00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: really do it is I was going to all these

658
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 1: festivals for years and years, and with my background and

659
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: trade shows, I basically wanted I've always wanted to create

660
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 1: something for girls. I've had this past and for so long.

661
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 1: I started a nonprofit years ago called the Brooklyn intern

662
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 1: where I was able to help get girls. Um Interns

663
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 1: should be different companies in different industries. So it's basically

664
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 1: a mashup of that and what I've learned throughout the

665
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 1: years of doing trade shows, and uh, it's phenomenal just

666
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: to be able to give back to young girls growing

667
00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: up in Brooklyn. I know what I could have became

668
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,560
Speaker 1: if I didn't have the guidance. And I want other

669
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 1: young girls to understand, especially with the social media age,

670
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: it's so important for them to understand what's real and

671
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: what's fake. And I want them to understand how they

672
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 1: can be so dynamic if they're able to come together

673
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: at work together. We envision is environment right. I went

674
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,400
Speaker 1: to your website which is Envisioned, which is E n

675
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: V S N Festival dot com, and I'm looking at

676
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,799
Speaker 1: the very diverse image of the three young ladies that

677
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,760
Speaker 1: you have on your page, and I think that's important

678
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 1: that you that you know the only thing about it

679
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,360
Speaker 1: is that, uh, you know, just a corner where you

680
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:00,360
Speaker 1: can we all get along? Can we all call appendicate

681
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,640
Speaker 1: that we all communicate when I look at this picture,

682
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: that's what you're saying, Yes, exactly, It's about it's I

683
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,359
Speaker 1: grew up knowing that it wasn't an African American thing,

684
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,720
Speaker 1: it wasn't a um Caucasian thing. I grew up around

685
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,240
Speaker 1: so many different cultures and good travel and my experiences.

686
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 1: This is what basically have led me to make it

687
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 1: a multicultural thing. And that's what it's exciting about Envision Now.

688
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: So you have a number of brand partners on here.

689
00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: How does one become a brand partner? How does want

690
00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:35,760
Speaker 1: to become a sponsor a part of the Envisioned Festival?

691
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 1: Is just the first one? Or give you a little

692
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:40,919
Speaker 1: history on the event. This is the first one, and

693
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: this is the first inaugural one. We're super It's so

694
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,959
Speaker 1: funny because I started planning this six months ago and

695
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,600
Speaker 1: with my background, people honestly jumped on being like you

696
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 1: know what, we know what you do. We're super excited

697
00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 1: about it. So I have partners like Huts and Jeans.

698
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:59,439
Speaker 1: They're bringing there one of their nonprofits that they are

699
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,640

00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 1: has been working with me for years. Um, I have

703
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,759
Speaker 1: feel they're going to be doing a drop every hour

704
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,240
Speaker 1: on the hour and giving one of the young ladies

00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,200

Speaker 1: Hudson many brand sponsors, and then uh urban as Don Julio, Okay,

712
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:51,360
Speaker 1: now late night for the older for the nighttime only.

713
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 1: You know. The thing about it is that, first of all,

714
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,360
Speaker 1: I feel a good spirit in you from an entrepreneur

715
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 1: standpoint point. I had to bring you on the show

716
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 1: because of the fact that that you know, there's so

717
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: many lanes of success that people experience. And then what

718
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: yours is about being an entrepreneur but also giving back

719
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:14,799
Speaker 1: an educating. Is that difficult to do? Um No, I

720
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,120
Speaker 1: think it comes natural, to be honest with you, I

721
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 1: think you have to want to do it, and that's

722
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,919
Speaker 1: something that I want to do. That's like my annual goal.

723
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,399
Speaker 1: Like if I was to die to morrow, I can

724
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,440
Speaker 1: know that I did all I can do in the

725
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 1: limited amount of time that I've had to be able

726
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,320
Speaker 1: to give back to certain young ladies. And I always

727
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 1: believe that even if it's one or two, you've at

728
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 1: least shocked to do something, and that's all it takes

729
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: is to put some sort of effort into it. I

730
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,960
Speaker 1: don't believe it's hard. I think it's if continue to

731
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: do and that has been my calling and you're calling

732
00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 1: to exist through the whole thing. Now what the term is.

733
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,560
Speaker 1: If this is gonna be year two, you're calling Rashawn

734
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:57,880
Speaker 1: in October next year, go Rashawn because I can't come. Well,

735
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: you said, my daughter my wife down there to explain

736
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,720
Speaker 1: hear and said, because we have a relationship now, miss Murdoch,

737
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,399
Speaker 1: and having that relationship for means that you can. You can.

738
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: You can come on money making conversation. This shows about

739
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,160
Speaker 1: promoting your brand and about being able to get the

740
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 1: word out about your bread in various different platforms. Also

741
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:17,320
Speaker 1: the fact that please get me a social media banner

742
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,160
Speaker 1: so I can post it on my social media. Some

743
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 1: of my I have a large following. I have a

744
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: large following in the New York market and so in

745
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 1: all the East Coast market, and I definitely you know.

746
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 1: The thing about it is that here's the deal. You

747
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 1: have a dream, and your dream is share able, which

748
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: I think is important for us to hear that. And

749
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 1: because a lot of people have a selfish dreams, so

750
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,239
Speaker 1: they have dreams that this is only tied to their

751
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 1: personal success. Your dream is tied to success of many.

752
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 1: And it's also what I call like a handoff, a

753
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: handoff dream, which means that you can pay it forward

754
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: or you can reach out and pull somebody forward, you know,

755
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: up to what you're trying to accomplish. When all that

756
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: is said and done, what is your ultimate goal? What

757
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,839
Speaker 1: do you gain from all this? What do you gain?

758
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:07,360
Speaker 1: I don't gain anything. I gained the feeling of me

759
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 1: being able to empower young girls. What makes this successful

760
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: is the amount of people turning out. You know. I

Speaker 1: you said, look at the quality of listen to the

918
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,759

919
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 1: to the room and just they signed me up. It's

920
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 1: tied to relationships and also position yourself. People can recommend

921
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:05,200

00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna happen. But I had actually been working as

970
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 1: a voice over actor. A great deal and my my

971
00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 1: I moved out to I moved like out of town

972
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: a little bit, Like I'm five minutes from downtown where

973
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 1: I live right now, and so it gets really hard

974
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 1: to get to my agent's office. And I thought, you

975
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 1: know what, since I moved out here, I need to

976
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 1: have the ability to to send stuff in via MP

977
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 1: three and not have to to slep all the way

978
00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:17,279
Speaker 1: down to UH down to Hollywood to um to get

979
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:21,680
Speaker 1: my to get my auditions in and just you know,

980
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:24,799
Speaker 1: they send me stuff and it and it works. And

981
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,280
Speaker 1: but you do have to invest in a good microphone

982
00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:29,839
Speaker 1: and a good set up in some places where and

983
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:32,359
Speaker 1: find a place that's quiet in your house and make

984
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: sure that that place stays quiet and then sound proven.

985
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah blah, bah bah blah blah blah.

986
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 1: So yeah, it became a necessity for me because of her,

987
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 1: first of all, because my location, but also it's a

988
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,680
Speaker 1: business move. But before we go, I want to talk

989
00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:52,359
Speaker 1: about a balance life. Your native of Pittsburgh, happy there,

990
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 1: and you have two beautiful daughters. How have you been

991
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 1: able to balance all that over the years? You know,

992
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:58,640
Speaker 1: because like I said, there have been peaks and valleys,

993
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of uncertainty and you still have

994
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,120
Speaker 1: you're happily married and you have two beautiful daughters. How

995
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 1: have you been able to balance that. I've been married

996
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 1: for twenty five years and uh, you know, yeah, I Uh,

997
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,719
Speaker 1: I was gonna say blame, but I really, you know,

998
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,200
Speaker 1: like my wife is the one who really helps me

999
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 1: out there. She'll she'll you know, she'll get me there,

1000
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,960
Speaker 1: She'll get me going, She'll get me understanding that we

1001
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:28,839
Speaker 1: know we need to take a vacation and we need

1002
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: to do this, and we need to do that. And

1003
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:35,839
Speaker 1: you know, I just say yes, dear, because she's almost right.

1004
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:41,399
Speaker 1: So you know, it's uh, it's I you know, it's

1005
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: all about her, and I really try and keep that,

1006
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:47,239
Speaker 1: keep that relationship going. You know, twenty five years is

1007
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:49,920
Speaker 1: a long time, especially in Hollywood. That's like that's like

1008
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 1: seventy five years after the world. You know, I want

1009
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 1: to say, I want to follow up on that because Hollywood,

1010
00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:01,000
Speaker 1: unlike any other business, is driven on fear because you know,

1011
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: you just never know when you might miss. It kind

1012
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 1: of holds you hostage because you leave town, you you

1013
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 1: feel you might miss an audition, you know, relationship or

1014
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,279
Speaker 1: being somewhere, so you always on that little rabbit, that

1015
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,880
Speaker 1: little rabbit trail, that a little rabbit trail for opportunities

1016
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 1: and leading that back. And I did that. I'm willing

1017
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: to tell anybody I did that far too long, but

1018
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,520
Speaker 1: a lot of success came out way, don't get me wrong.

1019
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 1: But I also know that I could have done it differently.

1020
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:28,399
Speaker 1: I could. I could have done it different I could

1021
00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,800
Speaker 1: have slowed down. I could have I could have believed

1022
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 1: in myself a lot more, in the in the in

1023
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,040
Speaker 1: the places that put in place a lot more. And

1024
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,759
Speaker 1: I congratulate you, my friend. Uh. I hope that you

1025
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,040
Speaker 1: will be hearing from my own my representatives about that.

00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:44,480
