• 3:43
  Speaker 1: for having me against time. I know, let's talk about
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm happening to happen. You're back on the
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: show and everything, because you know, that's when I when
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I when you know, it's always a journey with everything.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: That's that's a proximly about seven months ago when we
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: talked about eight months ago when we talked and and
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: you was finding yourself. You're making some decisions and you're
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: doing great things, but you seem to be not not
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: what you wanted to be at that moment. So let's
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: talk about that journey where yet right now? I love
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: First of all, I can tell there's a difference in
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: your tone and your energy. You feel really not saying
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: you're a negative person, but your spirit seems right. Thank you,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: you know, I really really appreciate that. Um. I've been
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: out in Los Angeles for almost two years now, and
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: it was a lot of just figuring it out. Once
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: you just kind of step out on faith and moved
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: to an entire new city not knowing you know too
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: many people. It's a it's a big risk. So it
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: took me a while to get it figured out. And um,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: finally I feel like I got my purpose back, you know,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: being a tattoo artist my entire adult life since I
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: was eighteen. U me, finally having my own tattoo shop
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: just puts everything in perspective for me, and I feel
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: like I'm actually moving forward now instead of running in circles.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Now that then you slid that out rather smoothly my
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: own tattoos, because we didn't even talk about that eight
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: months ago. That was that in the process eight months ago.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: It's weird, Like I said, I've been tattooing for so long. Um, Like,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: tattooing is just my my passion and that's what I do.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: And I am so focused on creating and just figuring out,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: you know, where I wanted to live with you know,
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: the TV showing so much happening. At one time, I
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: felt like I didn't even really have the time to
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: think about to put together a plan like Okay, I'm
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: gonna move here and open up my shop. Like it
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: really just it's set on my spirit. When when I
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: felt like it was the right time, you know, so
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: it it took me a long time, but like I
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: once I felt like, okay, now this is time for
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: me to pursue this. Um, I went and looked at
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: spaces and you know, started putting the piece together as
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: to what it would take. And then um, from there
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: just started rolling. So it was really like a six
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: month process from you know, actually yeah, but the trade
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: was so um has been there for so long that friends,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta brand. You gotta brand, You have
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: a following, so that's what helps in social media, helps
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: you out, help help you make that decision to open
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: as well, didn't it. Yeah? Absolutely absolutely. I mean just
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: being a tattoo artist. You know, there's no bigger platform
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: that you can ask for, from a national TV show
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: to you know, hundreds of thousands of followers on Instagram.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: It's like it's a blessing that you can't take for granted,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: and you gotta take full advantage of it, and you
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: have been. So let's talk about this whole process because
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: my show Money Making Conversation is about entrepreneurship. It's about
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: people making that decision that you made. Like you said,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: eight months ago, are we discussed he was talking. You
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: didn't bring up the idea that I was going to
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: open my own tattoo shop in Los Angeles called Enigma Tattoo.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Now I lived in Los Angeles fifteen years. Where about
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: is it? So I can you can you can talk
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: to me. Where don't you open the shop? And where
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: are the locations? And why you chose this location? Um,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: it's Beverly Hills Areas right on the corner of Pico
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: and Robertson and anybody. Yeah, everybody that is from here
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: that comes by there, like, man, you couldn't have picked
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: a better location. So it took me a long time
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: to figure out the location I lived. I used to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: live in North Hollywood, and I didn't want to do
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: a thing. That's that's a one on one. That's one
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: on one north right, uh um, North Hollywood. Yeah, I
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: think so, but I'm not there anymore. I moved close
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: to the shop, but yes so. And then I looked
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: in Culver City and I looked on mail rows where
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: every other spot was a tattoo shop, and none of
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: it felt right to me. So I was actually going
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to get my hair done um at the salon in
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: that area, and I'm looking around, I'm like, what area
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: is this? And then so I just drove all up
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: and down Pico and I wrote down the phone number
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: to all the vacant spots, and there was one that
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: just looked like it had so much potential to me.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: So I went, I looked through the window, I wrote
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: down the number, called the prices and everything, and then
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: from there I connected with the commercial rotor and he
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: just closed the deal for me and everything went smooth
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: from there. So this is so cool. So I know
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Pico Robinson. That's the location of Enigma Tattoo that's owned
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: by Cat tat Cat. Let's talk about this so because
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: it was really a cool conversation. So do you have
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: any employees? Are you there by yourself? How? How was
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: working there? What's going on? Oh? No? Absolutely? There are
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: six of us total, six amazing Um. Sounds like a
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: TV show to meet, sound like a TV show. I
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: will take that. So I'm not mad about CEO TV.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Now I'm just gonna let you know that I'm speaking
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: to the speaking to words come true. Okay, thank you
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: so much. Let's put that in the air. But um yeah,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: six of us total, all great amazing tattoo artists. Um.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: And she's just a blessing to be able to work
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: with other amazing artists. Since I moved here, I've just
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: been kind of doing my own thing, traveling, doing private
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: sessions the studio. So now it's like, okay, now I
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: can build something where we can all come together and
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: you know, do something even greater. This is interesting. Let
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: me ask you this so because this is really really
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: cool conversation because we're talking about business. How you started
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: your business from a six months ago you, you're driving
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: up and down the street, you're looking at you looked
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: in shops in different areas, Culver City, North Hollywood, Hollywood,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: and you're settling on this location. Now you're telling me, Sean,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not in there by myself. I have six other people. Okay,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: your celebrity tattoo artists. How did you choose the other
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: six people to come on board? That they have to
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: have a social media following that, they have to have
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: a client base. Did you look at their art work
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: or they came with recommendations? How did that work? Yeah?
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: You know what, when I feel like, once you enter
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the art world and the tattoo world, all that celebrity
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: and TV, that doesn't mean anything. You could be on TV,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean it. You know, you could be
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: doing crappy work on TV. So for me, it was
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: all about the art, all about their skills set, you know,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: there um their own clientele and everything. And I pretty
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: much like cherry picked the artist, and I just I
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: was actually nervous to approach them because I'm like, why
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: would they want to come and work for me? You know,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: it's really really nervous, and it's kind of timid. So
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I just you know, I just went out for it,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: and I sent them emails or text or re shots
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: to them how I could, and I asked if they
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: would want to sit down and go to lunch with
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: me so I can tell them a little bit about
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: what I'm doing. And it worked, like you know, they
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: were stoked to come on board, and now we're just
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: forming an amazing team. So I'm just blessed. This is cool. Now,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: what is your vision of of a tattoo shop? You know, store,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: your location? What what makes you when you walk in there?

  Speaker 1: What what worreld a my walking into well? When you
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: ask like if I had always planned on open up

  Speaker 1: desk is very gritty, and that's not me. Like, I know,

  Speaker 1: I'm a tattoo artist, but I'm also a businesswoman and
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: I always think big. So for me to have the

  Speaker 1: Let's talk about Black Lightning, how you auditioned for that
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: role and how it is so it's changing the game
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: for Uh. You know, we all know about Black Panther,
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: we all know about that, but Black Lightning is has
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: carved out his own niches is playing very well on Netflix.
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: I follow it. Now went from CE, did you know
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: You're hot? When Netflix picked you up a quickly. That's
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: a good sign right there that you've got something going on.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: So tell us about how did you audition and how
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: your life has changed that you've been associated with Black
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: light Well, I got the call from my manager about
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: a year and a half ago that I had this
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: audition called black Lightning. I didn't, I never I never
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: heard of black Lightning. Never knew that we even had
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: a black superhero along with his family that was a
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: part of the DC universe. Never knew, So I go,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: I never knew either. Don't worry about it. I never do.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: I never knew. But I get the script and I
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: was like, first of all, knowing that Mara instantly mckill
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: were at the helm of it all and they were
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: the writers and the executive producers. I knew that this
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: would be a good show because their work speaks for itself.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: I'm a huge fan of their work, always wanted to
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: work with them. So I was first excited to read
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: the script because I knew they were attached to it.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Read the script and I was like, I just appreciated
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: the story. Most superheroes you see are, you know, in
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: their early twenties, and here with Black Lightning, you have
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: a middle man with the family who is a high
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: school principle. We've just never seen or heard this story before,
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: and I appreciated the strong, bold, and independent female characters
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: that they created within this world. So I went in
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: for the job and I was like, listen, y'all, y'all
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: looking for me. I felt so connected. I felt so
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: connected to the character and felt so connected to the
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: story that I just really went in so focused, and
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: I said, just go in and let them know that
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: you are her. And that was just the goal, you know,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: to go in and and show them that I understood
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: this character and that I was really wanting to give
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: my voice over to her and I under you know,
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: I just said everything about her world, so um, coming
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: from a city like Silly, I understand some of the
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: problems that that that the city Freeland faces within the show,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: and just wanting to be a voice for that and
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: hopefully start change, you know, with within our country, within
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: our cities. And um, that was pretty much my my
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: my audition proce. Okay, she minute this. We she said
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: a lot of good information because I want to continue
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: a story, but I want to feel people in the background.
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: She mentioned mar Rock and her husband now Mars. Some
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: of the work that Mars done his girlfriends being Mary
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Jane the game. Just to know a little history about
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: her writing sample and and you know, uh in the
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: new series on own and so that's them. Okay to
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: know that about that, Okay to show black Lightning. She
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: has a sister and she has a mom, and she
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: has a dad. That's the family dynamic that she's talking about,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: and that the encompasses black Lightning in her father's role,
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: he's a high school principal. Now, her character is a
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: very defiant character. And initially on the show, Um, the
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: character is is a gay character. Now initially on the show,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: and I want to ask about this, and as we
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: go through the interview process, she had a relationship. But
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: I thought in the beginning that bogged down the show
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: because show succeeds based on the family dynamic and how
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: they all come together. Because she has a sister who's
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: reluctant to be a superhero. She just wants to She
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: just wants to have kids. She wants to be a
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: normal person, and she's she's trauma tized. In the series
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: now Thunder Thunder all about being a superhero. She's all
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: about taking her power and and and and saving the community,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: fixing the wrongs in the community. In fact, her father
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: has to calm Thunder down. Now you can continue, contre
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: you excited, you can continue, Yeah, Thunder Thunder. She understands
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: and she learns that she has these superpowers. Then you
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: see her through the first season trying to navigate and
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: develop them. And once this lightbulb goes off of understanding
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: how her powers work, she gets really really excited and
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: really passionate, and she believes that this is a gift
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: from God and she is to used it to say
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: people who can't say themselves. So that is her logic behind,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: you know, wanting to go out and use the powers
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: that have been given to her. And as you said, uh,
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: my sister on the show played by China and the
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: claim she has a totally different feeling about having these powers.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: She thinks that it makes us freaks and she's not
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: normal and she just, you know, this doesn't really understand
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: and why her life has been you know, changed in
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: the in the major way that it has been. And
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: you can see, you know, throughout the season where I'm
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: trying to convince her that we have to use our
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: god given powers. And as you spoke on Black Lightning,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: you know, dealing with the fact that his daughter has
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: these same powers, not the same powers, but you know,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: they have been given special abilities and just trying to
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: you know, navigate through that world of of protecting them.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: But also you know, I have to train them because
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: it is what it is, and if I train them,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: then hopefully you know they'll they'll you know, be as
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: well off as possible when it comes to the whole
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: superhero world. So yeah, it's it's it's it's really a
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: show about a family first, and it's not it's not
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: that you're reminded that they're superheroes until you see them
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: in their costumes and you see them actually out fighting
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: crime and saving people. But it's really a show about
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: a family and you know, going through family problems and
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: them trying to overcome them together, which I thought was
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: really cool because you don't see a superhero, you know,
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: with his family, as I mentioned before, you you usually
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: see this young superhero flying and jumping all around, and
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: you have this family of superheroes and and that's just
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: an amazing concept of really cool idea, And Kudo said
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: everyone over at d C and Tony, Isabella and Trevor
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: who created you know this, this this character. Yeah, let's
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: let's talk about this show here about Rushawn McDonald black
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Lightning experience, because it's really all about me. Really, you know,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: I'm a fan. That's a fan. I'm a fan. Okay,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: So so I'm seeing it being promoted. I know. In fact,
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that uh Mara or the slave family
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: have been involved or involved in at all. I just
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: saw this and I my first thought was they would
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: not have the production quality is a black show. I
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: thought they wouldn't have the production quality to deliver the
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: special effect that that was my first thought. Ruin had
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: already made some preconceived thoughts that he wasn't gonna watch.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: These are my thoughts. You know, I'm just trying to
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: be honest, you know, I said, you know, they they
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: you know, they're trying to get on the hype of
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: the Black Panther and dropping this a little black show
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: in and you know, I ain't wasted my time because
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: I'm a superhero nut by the way, this week okay, okay,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: So so then my wife she knows I'm a superhero nut,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: so she says, she watches the premiere and then she goes,
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: you better watch the show. I go, why you best
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: watched the show? You're missing something, I said, really really well, whatever,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: so she record. For three weeks went by, I didn't
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: watch the show. She said, she's watching it and giving
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: me kind of like updates. You better will you stop
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: telling me I'm not gonna watch the show? So I wish,
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: she said. She set me down. I binge watch the
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: first three episodes. I've missed and have not missed an
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: episode since. You can give me. Give me a quiz
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: right now, did I passed? That's how much of a
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: fan I am, because I'm gonna telling you why. Because
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: of the fact that, first of all, the villains are fantastic.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: The villains are fantastic. That's key to me. You know,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: do the villains have credibility? Do? Do they throw fear
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: in you? Do? They do? They do? They do? They
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: map out? And then all of a sudden there's innate
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: danger that the secret can I get out? And then
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: the dynamic between their their their parents because they're divorced,
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: and she divorced him because he was a superhero, because
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: she didn't want to deal with the pressure of him
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: fighting crime, the same thing her daughter. She I love
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: the fact that the daughter got a little to Mama
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: and her. I'm talking about the younger daughter. And then Thunder,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: who I'm interviewing right now. She got all daddy in her.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: She all about saving the community. She all about stepping
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: out there. She teller were right now, she Thunder, but
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: she realizes that she can't because the people know how
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: to attack and know how to get the family. And
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: that's why the superheroes can't tell her what they are.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: That's why superheroes really can't have loved ones. If I
• 26:08

• 26:12

• 31:26
  Speaker 1: you on the show, first because you're entrepreneur, but also
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: you're doing you know, you're just trying to protect people.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: You're trying to because there's a lot of manipulative people
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: out there, especially predators out there, and people who will
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: put you in the situation that's not favorable to your safety,
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: not favorable to you trying to build your brand, your career.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: So tell us why you started. I'm just telling why.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I love the idea. Tell us what got you started
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: and and creating this app well, you know, as you
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: just mentioned, the the mowing industry, just like pretty much
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: any of the the industries that are in the entertainment
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: sector are really like based on dreams. You know, people
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: have a dream, they go and they chase it, right,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, and and they put it all out there,
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: whether you want to be an actor, whether you want
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: to be a musician, you want to be a model,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: and you chase that dream and you're it's tough, the
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: tough road. Anyone who's been entertainment knows that. You know,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: for every success, there's a thousand failures, and that for
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: that creates an environment that's right for people to take
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: advantage of these people wherever there's a power structure that
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: allows for someone to coerce or get someone to do
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: something because they're chasing that dream um and oftentimes they're
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: not even quite sure at that point what is but
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: they're supposed to do or what they're not supposed to do.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: So when someone who has you know, a powermaker in
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: that industry says hey, we need you to do this,
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: they sit there and they go, wow, why do I not?
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: They don't know where to turn, They don't have a
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: support system with them, and we that we're going to
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: change that. And we're not only going to change it
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: for those reasons, we're you change for a lot of
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: reasons that you think about it, they're about modelling. You know.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: If we think about you know, we think about genal Ema,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: we think about all these big models out there, um
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: and and it's like, okay, but we don't think about
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: the hundred thousand others they're actually doing the majority of
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: the work, and they're not They're not the ones that
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: it's like the top actors. You know, there's a there's
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: thousands of others and they're all working actors. And so
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: these are working models. And the problem with the mauling
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: industry is it is about modeling, yet the models have
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: become secondary to their own industry. They're they're sitting on
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: the purple edge. And then you've got like an agency,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: like a traditional agency or an agent who's negotiating everything
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: on their behalf, hopefully in their best interests, but many
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: times not in the model's best interests um with the
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: client that wants to book them, and the model just
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: sits on the side because inside the contract with the
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: agency that says they're going to handle it form and
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: they just sit around there and hope that this stuff
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: is happening correctly. And so the ball is pretty much
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: relinquishing the control over his or her career to the agent.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: And the model doesn't set their rates, they don't have
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: a say on whether they get the job or to,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: you know, to in the negotiation process. And we'll say,
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: we're gonna change all of that. We're gonna put the
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: models in the center of their universe as they should be.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: We're gonna empower them, We're going to give them the
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: tools to guide their own careers. We aren't even going
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: to require them to have contracts with us. They're gonna
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: be with us because they want to be with us.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: That's a novel idea, right, That's that's the way I
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: like it. That's where I like it. Isn't that like
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: the way of like? That's I mean, truly, it's like
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: the American way. That's what it's supposed to be. All
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: these contracts come into place and all of a sudden,
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: in handcuffs basically, and if they don't even know what
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: they're signing half the time, because it's like and we're like, no,
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: we're not going to do that. They're gonna be with
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: us because they want to be with us. Quite frankly,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: we don't even care with a traditional agency. That doesn't
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: matter to us. We are going to be that foundation
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: for every model, that that uh stability from the first
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: day of modeling to the last day of modelings for
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: every single model, and we're the people they can turn to.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: We're the ones that have their back. We do things
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: crazy weird, um from the standpoint of disruption. So we
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: we do this weird thing called back contracts on every
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: single client. Uh not so weird. Really. We do criminal
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: we do sex offender checks. We do a ID verification,
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: we do a verification of needs to they actually need
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: a higher model, I mean someone's you know, depending on
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: what they're who with this person and why they need
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: to hire a model, and they have to so the
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: clients actually have to apply just like the models need
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: to apply. And we want to create the safest environment
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: models in the world. As you mentioned, we're on the
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: way over twenty registered models already. Yeah, that's amazing market.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: I can't let you just say twenty because I you know,
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: that means that this is this is this is resonating
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: with with with the industry. You know, it's a need
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: and that's why I can't let you just go twenty No, no,
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: that's in it because we know how all it is
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: the lunch. Launch an app and then also create a
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: trust to the environment. And that's what you're doing. You're
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: creating a trust to the environment with agent Ink. That's
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: the app. You can download it Google Play Store, Apple
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: Store is available on all the platforms. Can I share
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: a quick story with your mark about my experience as
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: UH a guy who represented UH models in the industry.
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: UH early on in the early two thousands, UH represented
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: several models. They were video models and UH so videos
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: are really popular and especially in the urban industry. UH
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: and BT. You could always just turn on be E
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: Tea and to see UH how dominant the video models were.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: And when you get on set, they had no dressing rooms,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: they had no they had they generally had no food.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: UH they and I wou was always have to go
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: to set with my clients to make sure they would
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: treat it with respect. You know, you get there, you
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: basically had the stage till the shoot was over with.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: There was no time window. It really was not a
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: comfortable environment and plus a lot of times the women
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: will have on bikinis, so they will be dressed with
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: a limited amount of clothes. Sometimes these video shoots are
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: at night and it can be cold, So I am
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: really champion. I'm sure you've heard these type of stories before.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: That's why you started this app. But this is the
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: reality of why it's important to understand why Mark app
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: is blowing up, why it's needed because as a professional,
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: and I consider myself one of the top managers in
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: the business, I had to walk my clients and feel
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: I had to protect them not only from the environment,
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: but of certain situations so they would come home safe
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: because they can be bad at there. Correct, Mark, that
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: is absolutely correct. Your story is is pretty much the norm.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: I wish it was not, and that's that's what we're
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: out the change and emailed it. I mean, we we
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: we looked at the big picture of this industry and
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: we said, the fabulous. You know, there's a lot of
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: great industries out in the industries one of them. But
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: I think because of all the the hype and excitement
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: and all the beautiful sides of it, people don't realize
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: what's really happening. And I hate hey, I said, I
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: mean we started this too. We started the company actually
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: over two years ago. We launched just you know this year,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: and we did this with these the intent of making
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: it better to about the clients and the models. So
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: this isn't really a two sided thing. We said, let's
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: look at the entire industry that we put on the whiteboard.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: How would we redesign the industry today and not just
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: try to put bandies on a ship that has a
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: whole lot of holes in it. And so we kind
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: of re imagine the industry and we said, look, if
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: we weren't us support foundation, we could provide value to everyone.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: So it's not just to the models. Although without the
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: models being you know, in the right mindset and having
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: the support and and and being safe, then everything starts
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: to fall apart. And we definitely, you know, came in
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: there with that focus. I mean we we even you
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: can probably know this as well too. Models. A lot
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: of people I couldn't believe this when I tell them
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: that one the traditional payment cycle for a model after
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: job is thirty days, sixty sometimes ninety and even sometimes
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: this far out as a hundred and eighty days after
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: the job they get paid. And I saw a contract
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: recently where where the models showed me with a traditional
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: agency that said, in bold letters, all caps, you will
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: be the last to be paid. Do not keep asking
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: for paying. You will get paid, but you are the
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: last in line. And I said, the modeling industry and
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: the models of the reason the jobs are happening. And
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: yet the models the last one to be paid. And
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: we said, no, that's gonna stomp. And we pay the
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: models the same day as the shoot. So we just
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: said everything, We wrote everything out and we just said
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: we're changing it all. We we do seven customers assistance.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: We have a blood and called as in our out.
• 40:19

  Speaker 1: my EQUIP electric toothbrush, I love my smiles, I love
• 40:25

• 46:54
  Speaker 1: Has always been. Let me just here a little background
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: about my relationship with her. When Steve Harvey Nour did
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: our adio short moved from New York to Atlanta with
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: officers and Buckhead and so we had this deal with
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: this agency with here Shot Farm that was right correct,
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: Here Shot Farm Sausage, and we had a little kitchen
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: and she would come over and she cooked these meals.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: I showed my little kitchen and she'd be back there
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: and then we sample of food on air. That's how
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: I met her, and so and so and so. That
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: was just just seeing her back then. She's always tell me, Rashan,
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: I want my on TV show. I go, okay, go
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: for it. I'm gonna be big in this business. And
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: I'm just telling the truth. And she just but she
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: was focused and she knew it. She didn't know how
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: she was gonna do it, but she knew that that
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: was that was a goal of hers. And I'm just
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: telling you. I would just see you on TV doing
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: these doing these little guest segments being a guest judge.
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: Tell people how it all really got rolling for you.
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: I know you started, you know, you started with me.
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: Back there there was like two thousands, two thousands, eight
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: nine nine, and and you you came in first of all.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: This was still that professionalism. Okay, I knew her brand.
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: Beautiful smile. She always had a face for TV. To
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: let your note, I always had a face to smile
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: for TV. So when she talked with you doing TV,
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: some people tell me they're gonna do TV. I go. Really,
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: I didn't say that with her. Well, I appreciate that,
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: but no, it's funny how I actually got started, because
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: a lot of people think, oh, I just fell right
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: into the to the chevro of culinary world. I started
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: Corporate America right out of college, like I have a
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: degree in marketing and business, and I was in Corporate
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: America for several years and it was just you know how,
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: and I know a lot of people can identify with this.
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: You you get into a career, you think it's going
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: to be so outstanding, and then I just got there
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: and I was like, this is not me. I quickly
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: realized I don't want to be in a meeting after
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: a meeting talking about meetings while we're having so many meetings,
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: And it was just like I felt changed to my desk.
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't feel like I was being fulfilled and utilizing
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: my full talent. So it was back in with two
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: thousand one and I was working at PR Company in Atlanta,
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: and it was right after nine eleven and they started,
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: you know, losing clients and laying people off. And they
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: came to me and said, we can either demote you
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: or you can go. And I was like, wait a minute,
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: this is my chance. At first I was like, wait,
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, I got bills to pay, I got student loans,
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: I need to stay. But in the instant, I said,
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: this is my time to take that leap of faith.
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: I gotta jump right now. And I took it, and
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: I said if I just let me go, and everybody
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: in the room looked at me like I was crazy.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: And I didn't really have a plan in mind. I
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: just knew that I could not go to that job
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: or do that career for the rest of my life.
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: I knew there was so much more for me. And
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: right after that, I went to UM the Art Institute
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: of Atlanta for culinary school because I always loved to cook.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: I grew up with my grandmother showed me how to cook.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: I was that little chunky kid. Everybody was on the
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: playground like I was in the kitchen with my grandmother,
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: been learning how to like need dough and stuff like that.
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: But I never really considered it as a career. So
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: when I went to the culinary school, I said, this
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: is what I love to do. Let me just see
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: what happens. And it was the best decision that I
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: ever made. So it was like I took hay cut
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: and my parents didn't understand what I was trying to do.
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: Everybody thought I was crazy, but I knew that was
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: the path that I had to take. And a lot
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: of times when people think it's crazy, that's a decision
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: that that's the best decision for you because you can't
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: let everybody. Everybody can't understand what you're trying to do.
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: You gotta know for yourself. And that was the one
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: thing I always love to do, and it's a career choice.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Everybody's eating all the time, so I knew I would
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: never be laid off. I would never be out of
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: a job because everybody's always eating. So that's really what
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: I said. Let me do the chef thing you right
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: there before we go, I'm gonna get more into her
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: because she's really a great person as you can tell
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: about her motivation. Let's talk about the show you're currently
• 50:36
