✨ Making Dreams Come True for A Listers✨

Bayou and I are so proud to have collaborated twice with the incredible Michelle Pfeiffer on her groundbreaking fragrance line, Henry Rose. 🌿💫

Her commitment to non-toxic, transparent ingredients is reshaping the beauty industry and giving people the choice of a safe, natural fragrance.

One of our greatest experiences has been directing an actor of this iconic level of talent — bringing her vision to life has been truly inspiring. 💚

✨ Dreams Are Beautiful — But They Also Need a Plan ✨

Dreams make us feel alive. They keep us moving forward. But in the entertainment industry (just like any other industry), dreams alone aren’t enough — they need structure.

It takes business knowledge — marketing, branding, public relations, and sales — to turn a dream into reality.

I’m so honored to have been recognized by WISE for delivering my signature Branding Seminar, built from years of marketing experience working with brands and talents like Michelle Pfeiffer’s Henry Rose, Smashbox Cosmetics, Paris Hilton, Chrome Hearts x Bella Hadid, Coldplay, and so many more.

A huge THANK YOU to the Europe Music Video Awards for honoring our music video "Change" with an Honorable Mention! 🎶💚

This project, featuring the incredible 11-year-old prodigy , was so close to our hearts. 💫 Creating this video reminded us how powerful music can be as a platform to galvanize youth and inspire action for the future of our planet. 🌱🌎

Special thanks to the amazing Chris Garcia for the incredible production on this song — you helped bring Nova’s vision to life in the most powerful way. 🎛️🔥

We’re beyond proud of this recognition and even more excited to keep telling stories that spark change.

🎥💥 Here’s to more music, more art, and more impact.

✨ One of the most exciting things about the entertainment industry is that the future isn’t written yet. That dream project you’ve always imagined? It’s waiting just around the corner if you just keep at it and create it into existence.

Sometimes it’s a single relationship that changes everything. Other times it’s the breakthrough you create by refusing to give up and not taking “no” for an answer.

But one of the greatest lessons we’ve learned from our mentor, Doug Claybourne (who produced for the legendary Francis Ford Coppola, one of our favorite directors), is this: it’s not about the end destination.

It’s about enjoying the entire journey—the good, the bad, the setbacks, the wins, and the breakthroughs. That’s where the magic is. 🌟

As I reflect on my birthday today, I can’t help but think about one of the most powerful influences in my life—Oscar-Winner Isaac Hayes. He wasn’t just my first client or my life mentor—he was someone whose music, spirit, and journey truly lifted me.

When I had the honor of working with him, it became so clear: Isaac wasn’t just an entertainer—he was a man of deep purpose. On his birthday, he gave back by raising money for a literacy charity and got all his friends to do the same. That moment has stayed with me ever since. He taught me that success means nothing unless you use it to uplift others.

So this week, when I had the chance to speak at Oscar qualifying at Regal Cinemas, I felt like I was walking in his footsteps—giving, connecting, and sharing with a beautifully empowered audience. Bayou and I left feeling inspired and full of gratitude.

Everything I’m doing now—from storytelling to speaking to giving back—is rooted in what Isaac showed me. On my birthday, that feels more important than ever.

Thank you, Isaac. You changed my life—and I’m trying every day to pay that forward. Thankyou for these stunning photos!!
