Balancing Creativity, Spirituality, and Entrepreneurship.

ANDREW VELÁZQUEZ crowns you.
A crown to symbolize, as an adornment of the human brain, crowns represent the discerning judgement, decision-making skills, and excellent reason of appointed leaders. In many cultures in which kings and queens and all in between acted as spiritual leaders, the crown is a symbol of divine right and holiness. Join me every episode as I interview a new guest to dive deep and provide you with tools, techniques for self development while having fun. Together we can make a difference as a community of POC, LATINX, LGTBQ+IA and all in between.

It all started when she worked for a local music publication as a freelance writer, marketing consultant, and brand ambassador. This led her to discover the world of content creation and social media marketing.
Since 2011, Charlotte became an avid student of digital marketing and has conceived of, and managed, several full on brand build-outs.
Since 2020, she fully immersed herself into content creation and marketing full time, and successfully executed strategic digital marketing initiatives from conception to completion.
Often referred to as "The Oracle" or the "Wizard Behind the Curtain" by those who know her best; Charlotte's willingness to see through the veil and think outside the box are both huge aspects of her success.
Through her work, she's been involved in everything from high level multinational projects as well as smaller grass roots endeavors.
She's worked with brands like Nyx Cosmetics, as well as national touring acts, and traveled the country to attend promotional events as part of her work.
During her time working in digital marketing and content creation, Charlotte came to recognize the disparity in representation amongst marginalized communities, specifically the 2SLGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities.
With this knowledge, she chose to predominantly work with creators, entrepreneurs, and nonprofits in these communities.
Through her tireless pursuit to create more opportunities for these communities, Charlotte is excitedly considering the future of her brand, and working closely with organizations that align with the same goals.
Charlotte's foray into event coordination and content curation began in the past year, when she was asked to consult and curate for a local art gallery that specializes in public programming highlighting marginalized creators.
This opened up a whole new avenue of creative visioning for her, one in which she could utilize many of her developed skills and contacts to produce and participate in meaningful content that uplifts and edifies the communities that she serves and humanity as a whole.

Deb Balino is the founder and voice behind Sass & Smalls as a writer, storyteller, and content creator, based out of Vancouver Island, BC. She is also the host of her podcast, Sass & Small Talk - speaking on topics about parenthood, womanhood, entrepreneurship, mental health, overwhelm & burnout, as it relates to finding ones’ way back to their creative selves and essentially getting one’s “sass” back.
Coming from a creatively colourful history of vocal performance on stage and in studio, working in network television programming in Hollywood for primetime, daytime, and live programming (the Price is Right, the Grammys, Super Bowl) - you may catch one of her seasonal appearances as a singer on The Young and the Restless, or hear her over a vocal track on a Hallmark holiday romcom, or on one of the primetime TV teasers for CSI, NCIS, The Amazing Race, & Big Brother, dabbling in the world of Voice Over promotions, and later, entering Kid’s Fashion based out of New York, as a stylist and promotional writer for Children’s luxury brands, inspired by the birth of her first daughter.
Eventually she made the ultimate shift from big city girl to full time Mama Mode, and moved back home to Canada to be closer to family.
She utilizes her corner of the web through video storytelling, writing, and podcasting to share her own personal journey of navigating life as a caregiver to aging parents, and a homeschool mom of 2 in a neurodivergent family. Through her lens, she gives her listeners and readers, a peek into the reality of her life where she hopes to inspire other overwhelmed parents and caregivers, underwhelmed by a lack of artistic stimulation/ creativity. Through her own personal experience of burnout, loss & grief after 5 years of late heartbreaking pregnancy losses, and the many relatable struggles that go hand in hand with making the shift from a vibrant career, to family life and caregiving - she shares her story and spiritual journey to others who simply want to find their way back to themselves again. Without the initial intention of doing so, life imitated art. Through the joys and trials of parenthood, she found a way to bring creativity back into her life as a mom - by using her voice (like she always did).
Deb’s stories, insights, and creative works have been featured in publications, such as BBC News, Yahoo Style, Huffington Post, Yummy Mummy Club, and a variety of campaigns and live forums aimed at improving health care systems across Canada.

A man of many talents, Jasten King can be found behind the Dj booths at the Burgundy Room, the Faultline or Revolver, which coincidentally runs his video montage work round-the-clock.
Some nights you'll catch him trying out new material at LA's comedy hotspots.
Other nights he's at screening some of his films like "Ouroboros" - winner of the 2013 Hump! Festival or the new transgender documentary, "Finding Kim".
The lure of music can drag him on to stages with the bands he's played guitar for or fronted. Sometimes it all comes together like in "CHARLIE! The Death of Nancy Fullforce" (Los Angeles Fringe Festival's "Best Musical" 2011), the Alt-Rock murder mystery musical he wrote and starred in and is currently adapting to a screenplay.
Chances are if he's not doing one of the above, he's at home - passed out in the loving embrace of his precious Pug, Miss Squid.

Stefan Mreczko is an artist originally from Philadelphia, who found his creativity in NYC.
He has worked in television, music video, theater and global advertising & PR firms, and is an internationally-published freelance photographer focusing on men’s fashion and portraiture. An on-going personal photography project of his titled “Museum Napping,” inspired by a performance art piece by actress Tilda Swinton, depicts Stefan taking naps in museums around the world.
A long-time Madonna fan, Stefan is one part of the quartet who produces and co-hosts MLVC: the Madonna podcast. Together with his co-hosts Tony, Liberty and Ben, he has been bringing conversations about Madonna and interviews with people who have worked with her or been a part of her iconic career, since April of 2019.
Not only did Stefan get to dance onstage with Madonna as an ‘Unapologetic Bitch’ during the Rebel Heart Tour, he got to sit down with Madonna and share a beer with her and his friend Sean during the Madame X tour, he attended M's exclusive performance at the Red Rooster, culminating in a Nola-inspired parade through the streets of Harlem, and most recently went rollerskating with M at her Finally Enough Love disco party.
In his spare time, Stefan is an avid gym goer and has begun acquiring a brand new skill: producing music. His first-ever single, “Mistress Dita,” paying homage to Madonna’s persona from her Erotica album, was released in December 2020. His latest single, "We Love Madonna," a disco-infused bop dedicated to Madonna herself, produced by Stefan and co-written and sung by co-host Liberty Rentrop, is now available on Apple, Amazon and Spotify.

In Just a few short years, she has captured the industry's attention by being featured in a national print campaign for Sephora.
