He is an entrepreneur, co-founding and operating a successful management company, which engaged in active and aggressive promotions, tour coordination, booking, career planning and scheduling.

He is now joined by part owner and celebrity Justin Hartley and has launched four Avila products, Revel Avila Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo and canned cocktail the REVEL Avila Spritz. Micah has created a world of success and actively influences people in the black and brown community to pursue their dreams of reaching business highs like him.  @revelspirits4382  Visit Revelspirits.com @MicahMcFarland

    Hone The Power in Your Story With TMI Workshop Leadership

    Hone The Power in Your Story With TMI Workshop Leadership

    On The Ground Level Season 2 Episode 2: Hone The Power in Your Story With TMI Workshop Leadership
    About Tmi Project:

    Since 2010, TMI Project has led more than 100 true storytelling workshops and staged live storytelling performances by nearly 2,000 storytellers, which have been presented to audiences of nearly 200,000 people in schools, colleges, prisons, mental health clinics, theaters, community centers, the United Nations and online.

    https://www.tmiproject.org/

    Our cofounder Tahyira Savanna has been chosen to tell her abortion story on January 22nd, 2022, the 49th anniversary of Roe vs Wade.

    We chatted with Raine, Dara, and Hayley for this special conversation.



    Your nonprofit expresses the stories of many different groups and populations. Which of the groups do you feel is the most misunderstood? 



    Why is storytelling so important? 



    How can people reach out to you to tell their stories? 



    Do you think everyone has a voice? Isn’t social media a sign that too many opinions can be a bad thing?



    How old were you when you wrote your very first story? What triggered you to create those characters?



    Too Much Information, the anchor to TMI Project’s mission, still makes for pretty great stories.  What’s the wildest story (not Covid related directly but can be - be mindful of our audience) that you heard in the last 12 months?



    On Jan 22nd Roe vs Wade turns 49 years old.  You all are using this moment as a call to action.  What would you like audiences to take away from this performance? What action would you like to see in real time?
