2:35
Speaker 1: Tell me about that, Tell me about I read the bio,
2:37
Speaker 1: but the people in public needs to hear your story. Yeah, well,
2:42
Speaker 1: you know what. And it's funny that people people now, Um,
2:45
Speaker 1: within the last I guess pretty year or two, have
2:47
Speaker 1: become a little more public. So prior to that, I
2:50
Speaker 1: really kept a low profile, absolutely, and I really focused.
2:54
Speaker 1: Yeah you know this this day, this dream happened for me. Um.
2:58
Speaker 1: It's kind of I feel like, I say, television chose me.
3:01
Speaker 1: I didn't necessarily chose it. And I had a passion
3:03
Speaker 1: for doing something that was behind the camera and low
3:06
Speaker 1: in the hole, that had this idea and just the
3:09
Speaker 1: right place at the right time. I met a producer
3:12
Speaker 1: in l A through a friend of mine whol out there,
3:15
Speaker 1: sat down and started talking to him. I bought a
3:17
Speaker 1: completely different concept or a different idea that I had,
3:20
Speaker 1: and during that conversation he started to talk to me
3:23
Speaker 1: about different things they were working on and and I
3:26
Speaker 1: was familiar or got familiar with a franchise called The
3:29
Speaker 1: Real Housewives of Orange County, which was you know, this
3:31
Speaker 1: is two thousands and six seven, um, and I kind
3:34
Speaker 1: of said, you know this Atlanta, this show belongs in Atlanta.
3:38
Speaker 1: This is and there was nothing like it. Nobody was
3:40
Speaker 1: taking a chance on female um black ensembles for sure,
3:44
Speaker 1: and you know, listen, they were candid and told me
3:47
Speaker 1: that like, go okay, well you know what you say,
3:49
Speaker 1: And I said, I definitely this is something that needs
3:52
Speaker 1: to be seen. I can do this, give me three weeks.
3:55
Speaker 1: And then a lot of the short is yeah, I said,
3:58
Speaker 1: you know, give me three weeks and believed in myself
4:01
Speaker 1: and knew that I can really come here. And I
4:04
Speaker 1: only been and let me say a full disclosure, I
4:06
Speaker 1: am from Canada and I've only been in Atlanta for
4:10
Speaker 1: about i'd say almost a full year fully. Um. Yeah.
4:16
Speaker 1: So so it took a ta Bragg. This show needs
4:20
Speaker 1: have been Atlanta Night, needs to be here. Yeah, and
4:24
Speaker 1: I believed in it. I just came back and started
4:26
Speaker 1: talking to friends and word traveled and my second interview
4:30
Speaker 1: was Missnini leaks Um and the rest of History because
4:34
Speaker 1: she really I loved her and I always said, well,
4:36
Speaker 1: who are your friends? And I had been interviewing women anyhow,
4:39
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of people of the city who
4:41
Speaker 1: knew me from the very beginning when this was just
4:43
Speaker 1: a dream and of hope and you know, sitting on
4:45
Speaker 1: my basement floor trying to find people. Sonni kind of
4:48
Speaker 1: introduced me to her friends. I interviewed them with sports.
4:51
Speaker 1: The network production company loved it, and I just kind
4:54
Speaker 1: of went with it, and the train was moving, and
4:56
Speaker 1: thank god it did, and I jumped on and was
4:59
Speaker 1: able to sell the a concept two thousand seven an
5:01
Speaker 1: hour in season eleven. And yeah, and now I'm kind
5:04
Speaker 1: of finally stepping out and saying, you know, listen, um,
5:08
Speaker 1: if I can do it, you know, any any anyone
5:11
Speaker 1: can and or certainly women who have you know, want
5:15
Speaker 1: to be able to pursue this type of dreams. So
5:18
Speaker 1: that's my short, long version of time. So that's a
5:21
Speaker 1: very honest version because I know that when you get
5:24
Speaker 1: a franchise this big is associated with a lot of
5:27
Speaker 1: successful franchises. Now that you're coming out of the coming
5:30
Speaker 1: out of the coming from the background, do people question
5:33
Speaker 1: your role in and do people question your level of participations? Oh, listen,
5:40
Speaker 1: I will say this. I started to say this, um,
5:42
Speaker 1: and I started before I really even realized it was
5:45
Speaker 1: a thing that people were saying. But I say, you know,
5:47
Speaker 1: you've got to write your own story or else someone
5:49
Speaker 1: else will write it for you. Control your narrative exactly.
5:55
Speaker 1: That was what was starting to happen. Um. Of course,
5:57
Speaker 1: people in the city. I had a big premiere party season,
6:00
Speaker 1: the one at the W Hotel. It was an epic party,
6:03
Speaker 1: about eight hundred people, all the chat media. It was
6:05
Speaker 1: really crazy, and so clearly back in two thousands and
6:09
Speaker 1: seven when I stepped up and thanked everybody for you know,
6:12
Speaker 1: helping me to just to see my dream, consolate and
6:15
Speaker 1: my baby and all this stuff. Right after that, about
6:18
Speaker 1: two years after that, I kind of stepped back and
6:21
Speaker 1: what happened was I really for me. It was overwhelming
6:24
Speaker 1: the media, people knowing you the criticism, and I just
6:29
Speaker 1: personally did not sign up for that part. So I
6:32
Speaker 1: really took a big step back and focused on other
6:35
Speaker 1: projects and just cut myself quiet um. And so really
6:38
Speaker 1: what happened was people just started assuming and as television
6:42
Speaker 1: started to grow, people still don't understand how television is
6:46
Speaker 1: made and sold. And a lot of times, you know,
6:49
Speaker 1: you get on the show, and I worked on the show.
6:50
Speaker 1: By the way, I worked on season one and two
6:53
Speaker 1: very very I mean without working on it there really
6:56
Speaker 1: I don't there couldn't have been a show because I
6:58
Speaker 1: told all stories with the producers, of course, but I
7:02
Speaker 1: initiated what those stories were prior to the show even selling.
7:05
Speaker 1: So I say all that to say I really did
7:08
Speaker 1: um and shy away from all of that and stayed away.
7:11
Speaker 1: And the longer I stayed away, listen, people started to
7:15
Speaker 1: just assume things like, you know, some of the producers
7:17
Speaker 1: who were working on the show created it, or even
7:20
Speaker 1: for lack of better understanding, made created the show. We're listen.
7:23
Speaker 1: Leaning had a huge part in bringing her talents and
7:27
Speaker 1: her gifts and other women to the show. However, there
7:30
Speaker 1: was this one young woman who just kind of stepped
7:33
Speaker 1: up and did it with the help of others. Of course,
7:35
Speaker 1: um you know in the network saying yet and so
7:37
Speaker 1: I just kind of started to tell my story and
7:40
Speaker 1: now people are like, oh, yeah, I remember that, you know,
7:42
Speaker 1: and listen, there's a lot of people who, um, were
7:45
Speaker 1: there from the beginning that are now very very successful,
7:48
Speaker 1: people who are always you know, for you because sometimes
7:54
Speaker 1: you know, in this business, what you've learned is there
7:57
Speaker 1: is no word of the word humble is not a
7:59
Speaker 1: word news. In entertainment, you have to be a horn
8:02
Speaker 1: uh hornt, total tutor. You have to be a screamer,
8:05
Speaker 1: you have to be a brand influencer social media because
8:09
Speaker 1: because I compare what you've done to what another talented
8:13
Speaker 1: female producer, Monas got Young Mona Scott never dropped out
8:17
Speaker 1: of the background. She's been at the forever and that's
8:20
Speaker 1: that was smart, because we're smart on the part. If
8:24
Speaker 1: everybody don't know Mona Scott young Love and hip hop
8:27
Speaker 1: is her is her tremendous claim to fame and she's
8:31
Speaker 1: done and she's written several books because of that success.
8:34
Speaker 1: And you're writing books now. But I would say to
8:36
Speaker 1: anybody like you who's talented, uh from Jamaica, Or what
8:41
Speaker 1: about in Canada? Did you grow up in Canada? I
8:45
Speaker 1: grew up right outside of Toronto, and then I moved
8:47
Speaker 1: to Toronto in my twenties. So I pretty much say
8:50
Speaker 1: Toronto because most people don't know Hamilton, Ontario to the
8:52
Speaker 1: reallyst strong city a right by Buffalo. Toronto has a
8:57
Speaker 1: strong Caribbean African influence up there. Great city, great city.
9:02
Speaker 1: Yeah that's my that's my city. Yeah, I've been up
9:05
Speaker 1: there several times. I will tell people, you know, you
9:08
Speaker 1: go up there, you can get a little bit of everything. Food.
9:11
Speaker 1: I'm a food I'm a foodie. Now let'll just tell
9:13
Speaker 1: you to go up there to eat. I go up
9:15
Speaker 1: there to eat. People. Rahan, you're thin as a rail.
9:18
Speaker 1: All you talking about is food? Yes, I do eat.
9:20
Speaker 1: Now let's talk about how what got you down to Atlanta? Okay, Canada, Jamaica,
9:25
Speaker 1: Born and raised in Canada, down in Atlanta. One year
9:29
Speaker 1: in Hollywood. Tell everybody you've been here forever. Tell me
9:32
Speaker 1: you know everybody in Atlanta. Tell everybody you gotta show
9:34
Speaker 1: Idea went out there about Ninie leaks. Bam. The rest
9:39
Speaker 1: is history. Teenya lady, you're talking to U. Sean McDonald
9:41
Speaker 1: talking about Hey, your start boom. Well listen, I I
9:46
Speaker 1: actually what brought me down here was my husband, who
9:49
Speaker 1: had been recruited. He was just finishing up residency and
9:53
Speaker 1: finishing up his specialty, which is orthodontic. He's a doctor
9:57
Speaker 1: in orthodontic. Yeah, so I kind of followed him and
10:01
Speaker 1: here he was. It was between Miami and Atlanta. I
10:04
Speaker 1: love Miami and the weather, but Atlanta sounded good to me,
10:07
Speaker 1: and there we are. So we ended up here in Atlanta.
10:10
Speaker 1: I kind of followed him. Um, and you know, kind
10:13
Speaker 1: of didn't know what I was gonna do, but certainly
10:16
Speaker 1: knew that I wanted to figure out what I was
10:18
Speaker 1: going to do separate from what my husband does. I
10:21
Speaker 1: didn't want to just get to Let's talk about this book,
10:23

Speaker 1: It's the title of it's called sell It s E
10:29
Speaker 1: l l It from Concept to Reality. The reason I
10:33
Speaker 1: say this because so many people approached me about television concept,
10:38
Speaker 1: reality show concept. What's the next step what you have
10:41
Speaker 1: to do? And you've created a book that lays down

Speaker 1: I was or what I did or what I accomplished,
11:18
Speaker 1: my Instagram kind of started picking up some traction with
11:21
Speaker 1: people ming me and asking me these questions. So I
11:24
Speaker 1: realized that there was a need for this information and
11:27
Speaker 1: no one else had done it. I was shocked. So
11:29
Speaker 1: wait a minute, people need to share this information. Um.
11:32
Speaker 1: And I was really big on allowing other people to
11:35
Speaker 1: do what I've done, or at least be able to
11:37
Speaker 1: have the tools to chase their dreams. And so we're
11:41

Speaker 1: You know that right familiar who you are, So the
15:18
Speaker 1: truth is tought speaking right now? So now see the
15:22
Speaker 1: thing about it is that this book is wonderful. I
15:24
Speaker 1: would not I will keep saying this that you can
15:26
Speaker 1: you can put this on your Instagram, And Rashan said,
15:28
Speaker 1: my book was wonderful because of the fact that so
15:31
Speaker 1: many people need to understand that is a there's a
15:34
Speaker 1: system in place. I always tell people, you know too,
15:37
Speaker 1: and math is easy. Everybody understands math two plus two years, four,
15:40
Speaker 1: three plus three or six that's math math. But see
15:43
Speaker 1: in the creative space, it's the same thing. Subject for it. Now,
15:46
Speaker 1: if you're sentence, people need to understand that what you've
15:50
Speaker 1: created is that language of how to produce a shell.
15:53
Speaker 1: And so what what I would love for you to do?
15:56
Speaker 1: And I will support you with my social media or anything,
15:58
Speaker 1: my my newsletter, anything that you I wouldn't. You need
16:01
Speaker 1: to do a twelve week course every Monday, every two
16:06
Speaker 1: you pick a day, and you should be online telling
16:09
Speaker 1: people and were having them answer them questions and say answer.
16:12
Speaker 1: Of course you're gonna be selling your book to you
16:14
Speaker 1: will be selling your book and then but you'll be
16:17
Speaker 1: developing your brand. And see, people need to understand how
16:21
Speaker 1: talented you are and the one way they find out
16:23
Speaker 1: how talented you are when they realize you was the
16:26
Speaker 1: one who wrote this incredibly special book. And I say
16:29
Speaker 1: that because of the fact that there a lot of
16:32
Speaker 1: people look at Hollywood, they always see the finished product.
16:35
Speaker 1: They never see that the television show, you know, twenty
16:39
Speaker 1: two minutes may have been a whole week, maybe in
16:41
Speaker 1: the whole day. You should have movie maybe three months
16:44
Speaker 1: for our natimated film. Okay, that's a lot of work,
16:46
Speaker 1: a lot of people going to that. But even get
16:48
Speaker 1: you to that point, how does that idea get to
16:51
Speaker 1: a point that somebody wants to buy it? Because everybody
16:54
Speaker 1: has a great idea, you know that. Lord knows how
16:56
Speaker 1: many times you've been at somebody can find out who
16:59
Speaker 1: you are going. I got this idea to go Please
17:01
Speaker 1: don't please, don't take please, please make your million dollars
17:08
Speaker 1: and to make you a million dollars. Please stop everyone
17:13
Speaker 1: those folks walk up to you. Don't tell me that
17:15
Speaker 1: I did, because then you see it on TV. Similar
17:17
Speaker 1: to something she stole it from. I told that Pascal
17:22
Speaker 1: a past I was in check for late it was
17:25
Speaker 1: a check for mate. When I was on the Lemonade,
17:27
Speaker 1: I told about that idea. So you have to stop.
17:31
Speaker 1: So I gotta tell you this, uh, this idea of
17:34
Speaker 1: you as a talent, you coming out of the background
17:38
Speaker 1: to the forefront on Instagram. You got this great book.
17:42
Speaker 1: How can we how can you? And I? And I'm
17:45
Speaker 1: not even busy now, I'm not trying to manage you now,
17:47
Speaker 1: but I'm also trying to help promote you because this
17:51
Speaker 1: needs to be available and you need to be the
17:54
Speaker 1: face of of of of television from a standpoint of webinars,
18:00
Speaker 1: How can I what can we do to get this role?
18:02
Speaker 1: And what can we do to get this general public?
18:04
Speaker 1: Because see this available for men, college, students, high school, anybody.
18:09
Speaker 1: Because once they once they realize they got to follow
18:12
Speaker 1: up book, they gotta go buy the book. Yeah yeah,
18:15
Speaker 1: well let me let me tell you this. And I'm
18:16
Speaker 1: so thankful that you are excited. A lot of people
18:19
Speaker 1: really are excited that finally, finally, I'm kind of stepping
18:23
Speaker 1: out and and you know, I credit that to my
18:26
Speaker 1: team who who is probably helping me get my word
18:31
Speaker 1: out and people like you who are passionate about information
18:34
Speaker 1: and sharing that valuable information. So yes, I definitely would love, love, love,
18:38
Speaker 1: love to to to speak and we can get offline
18:41
Speaker 1: and do that stuff and come to that out because
18:43
Speaker 1: I definitely have been on you know, knowing that the
18:46
Speaker 1: information is necessary and and to to to say all
18:50
Speaker 1: of that, I'm actually it's so vital that people get
18:54
Speaker 1: this information that I really said. Once I wrote this
18:57
Speaker 1: this first planner, I said, I've got to put out
19:00
Speaker 1: another one because people were just saying, okay, now what
19:04
Speaker 1: you know, Because what I did was I intentionally put
19:07
Speaker 1: a stopping point to that very first set of all
19:11
Speaker 1: things to do, because as we know, people will get
19:14
Speaker 1: caught up and kind of really overwhelmed if there's too
19:17
Speaker 1: much at once. So what I decided to do with
19:19
Speaker 1: life and said, I broke it down into those first
19:22
Speaker 1: initial ten to twelve things that they need to do
19:25
Speaker 1: that will really help them to get to the next step.
19:28
Speaker 1: And then there's a whole next step of things that
19:32
Speaker 1: they really need to not only do but no um.
19:35
Speaker 1: And then for people who want to get on television,
19:37
Speaker 1: because that's really the bulk of how I really got
19:40
Speaker 1: on television was really understanding and being able to identify
19:45
Speaker 1: good talent. And I've done that my whole since, really
19:48
Speaker 1: since the beginning of Housewives. Very shortly after I fell
19:52
Speaker 1: into development, which is a lot of you know, cast
19:54
Speaker 1: development or show development and cast this king. Like I
19:57
Speaker 1: said in my planner, Um, you need us in order
20:00
Speaker 1: to sell a show. And so even now I'm working
20:02
Speaker 1: on a really big show, um that we can maybe
20:04
Speaker 1: talk about at the end of this interview. But I'm
20:07
Speaker 1: going to put together another planner that which will come
20:10
Speaker 1: this summer. By this summer, I should have it out. Um.
20:13
Speaker 1: It might even be out before the beginning of the
20:16
Speaker 1: summer end of spring, and it will be kind of
20:18
Speaker 1: a follow up to this. So yeah, I say all
20:20
Speaker 1: that to say I definitely will be doing more to
20:24
Speaker 1: get in front of people and really be able to,
20:27
Speaker 1: like you said, what the stars and do all of
20:29
Speaker 1: that stuff to really give people the information. It really
20:32
Speaker 1: is necessary, it really is and you're the truth, you know.
20:35
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying this, Like I always tell people,
20:36
Speaker 1: you know, day people, how to fix your credit they
20:39
Speaker 1: got bad credit. How to make money they have no
20:41
Speaker 1: money any bank, you know what I'm saying. How how
20:43
Speaker 1: to be a stylish dress living at cloud all the
20:44
Speaker 1: cloth look beat up. These are true. Okay, your show
20:47
Speaker 1: being on television ten years alright, You've written an amazing
20:50
Speaker 1: book and the book I'm talking about ladies and gentlemen.
20:52
Speaker 1: Is called sell it from concept to reality. This is
20:54
Speaker 1: based on the reality show. If you have a That's
20:57
Speaker 1: why you talk about cast so you can there's a
20:59
Speaker 1: lot of people that pict reality shows. Don't have nobody
21:02
Speaker 1: to go in the reality show. Excuse me, excuse me.
21:05
Speaker 1: You better have somebody you I got this idea for
21:08
Speaker 1: a bobber shop. Okay, who are the people in the
21:11
Speaker 1: barber shop? Just an idea you gotta find. You better go.
21:14
Speaker 1: Bring the barber shop people with you when you come
21:16
Speaker 1: in the room. Bring the sissle real with you when
21:18
Speaker 1: you come in the room. Now, she has a twelve
21:20
Speaker 1: week process of week one through one through three creating
21:24
Speaker 1: a sellable concept. Use your resources week four through eight
21:29
Speaker 1: time to execute Castic King. That's what I'm talking about.
21:33
Speaker 1: You got that idea you're driving around see some mechanics.
21:36
Speaker 1: They are all different ages, three generations, young kid, grandpa's son, father.
21:42
Speaker 1: That's the show I did. That's what you're called cast
21:44
Speaker 1: is King. They all might be funny, they might be
21:46
Speaker 1: a safer this sun type. Dude, you gotta get your show.
21:49
Speaker 1: This is how it really works. Or you go to
21:51
Speaker 1: some restaurant or everybody there fly they're young, and that
21:55
Speaker 1: it's a hip hop type restaurant. Everybody talking to hip
21:58
Speaker 1: hop looking good. What's a good look at people? That's
22:01
Speaker 1: a different show. That's how you get that's how that's
22:04
Speaker 1: that's my cast is king. You gotta have a cast,
22:07
Speaker 1: and you gotta have it. They don't have to be
22:09
Speaker 1: a celebrity. What has to have that spin on it
22:12
Speaker 1: that will be relatable. Well, here's the number one thing.
22:15
Speaker 1: Everybody who's listening. Women gotta want to watch the show.
22:18
Speaker 1: Don't bring up no show that just a bunch of
22:20
Speaker 1: hard head dudes want to watch women television. So if
22:27
Speaker 1: your idea is some horrible idea that only men want
22:30
Speaker 1: to watch, please stop. They're gonna run you out that
22:33
Speaker 1: dough eighteen and four to night. There you go, there
22:38
Speaker 1: you go something for two percent of the market. We
22:41
Speaker 1: corner women really run this entertainment from the viewer to
22:45
Speaker 1: the you know, and now behind the camera. So I'm
22:48
Speaker 1: really glad you said that. It's a very important point.
22:51
Speaker 1: Now here's the other part. Now, through Twitter, write your treatment.
22:54
Speaker 1: I always tell people this, here's this one. I let
22:57
Speaker 1: it create your log line and catching log lines used
22:59
Speaker 1: to up your show in thirty words are less. Make
23:02
Speaker 1: sure you don't forget the word hook. Here's the thing.
23:05
Speaker 1: If you still trying to tell somebody your concept and
23:08
Speaker 1: you still talking, you don't have a concept. That log
23:12
Speaker 1: line is key to sell in your show because they
23:15
Speaker 1: have to walk away and tell that long line to
23:17
Speaker 1: somebody else and they don't understand what you just said
23:21
Speaker 1: to your ideas, did Princess. I'm gonna tell you so
23:24
Speaker 1: this show wasn't long enough. You're star, young lady. If
23:28
