    Pretty Privilege & the Funding Game

    Riana gets candid about something most founders won't say out loud — the role attraction and appearance play in early-stage funding. From noticing the drop in male investor follow-ups after cutting her hair, to reflecting on being "flown out" in her twenties without fully understanding why, she breaks down the unspoken interpersonal dynamics behind the money. Honest, sharp, and long overdue.

    She Built the Future | AI, Food & Purpose ft. Riana Lynn

    She never applied for a job in her life. Instead, she emailed her way into Obama's White House, learned how money moves inside a $2B private equity firm, and then built an AI company changing what billions of people eat. Riana Lynn is doing it all as a Black queer woman in one of the least diverse industries on the planet — and she's not waiting for permission. Main Topics: How AI is reshaping the food industry and global supply chains Why half of entry-level white-collar jobs could disappear in 5 years — and which jobs are actually safe The real funding roadmap for founders who don't have the "right" network Why she cut her hair mid-fundraise and what happened to her checks What it means to be a "conscious AI leader" Living in purpose while running a company that feeds billions If you're looking for insight into the future of AI, what it truthfully takes to raise millions, or how food security is being reshaped, this episode is for you!

    The .05%: Artists Who Last vs Those Who Don't ft. Ye Ali

    Most people don't make it in the music industry. Statistically, 86% of artists are never discovered. So what separates the ones who do?  This month on Your Hero's Journey, we're diving into the music industry, and Savannah kicks things off with a conversation that's equal parts tactical and deeply human. Grammy-winning producer and R&B artist Ye Ali opens up about the scrappy early days, building a network that actually shows up for you, turning down deals that didn't feel right, and what taking care of his dad taught him about purpose, legacy, and what really matters. This is a conversation about longevity — in your career and in life. In this episode, we cover: - What it really means to have an entrepreneurial mindset as an artist — even when you're signed - How Ye Ali funded his career through modeling, brand deals, and investors before music paid the bills - The $500 music career starter guide — where to actually put your money when you're just getting started - Why he chose supporters over fans and how one real interaction can spawn 20 new listeners - Why he turned down label deals, fake PR relationships, and requests to over-sexify his image — and what it cost him - Protecting your peace in an industry designed to compromise it enjoy!

    From Sex Talk to Bestseller: WeezyWTF on Still Not Being 'Brand 'Safe'

    What happens when you build an empire after talking about sex—then everyone still only sees you as the "sex girl"? WeezyWTF gets brutally real about the moment an agency told her she wasn't "brand safe" despite selling a New York Times bestselling book. In this raw conversation, Weezy breaks down the double standards she faces as a Black woman creator, why she rebranded her hit podcast from Whorible Decisions to Decisions, Decisions (and whether it actually hurt or helped). She's not holding back on the racism, the exhaustion, or the tears that came with being reduced to sex work while building multiple successful businesses. If you've ever felt pigeonholed by your brand, told you're "too much," or wondered why some creators get to evolve while others stay stuck—this one's for you. Topics: Personal branding, creator economy, podcast monetization, rebrand regrets, influencer marketing, breaking stereotypes, New York Times bestseller, building community, brand perception, entrepreneurship, self-help

    This conversation is a must-listen for creators navigating brand deals, usage rights, and how to properly value their work. In this standout moment from a larger episode, I sit down with creator and host Jamiersen Green to break down the real rules behind creator rate negotiation — including why Black creators continue to be underpaid, how brands assess usage and credentials, and what creators need to advocate for themselves more confidently. We unpack: Why creators with the same reach are still paid drastically different rates How usage rights quietly impact long-term value The difference between visibility and credibility in brand partnerships What creators should stop giving away for free How to position yourself more like a founder — not just talent If you’re building a personal brand, negotiating partnerships, or inspired by leaders like Emma Grede who understand ownership, leverage, and long-term equity — this episode will sharpen your mindset and your ask. 🎙️ This clip is pulled from a longer, in-depth conversation now live on the podcast.
