Social media handles www.caramellucas.net https://anchor.fm/caramel-lucas https://caramel.substack.com/ https://Instagram.com/mscaramellucas/ https://twitter.com/Ms__Carame https://www.facebook.com/Caramel_Lucas/  https://Linkedin.comCaramelLucas/  I love creating things and seeing and trying new things and I'm always curating something in my mind to find something new to do. [3:30] I love motivating, inspiring, and impacting people because I want to show people that they don't have to do one thing but whatever they feel like they want to do consciously and make something out of it and be proud that they have done it. [3:48] I believe that if you're working for something, you have to find something that you like so that you find the fun in whatever you do. [4:43] At first, I was thinking about creating some kind of jeans, fashion, clothing wear, but then I thought that everybody does that. [5:31] I decided to find something different than nobody does and fragrance came into mind. [5:46] I called this company and told them I wanted to do a fragrance of essences that I loved to smell of which are cashmere, caramel, and vanilla and so we got together and made a fragrance that turned out to smell good. [5:53] I wanted to something different that makes me feel good to say I did it. [6:18] In 2013 I wrote a book ‘In Love with the Other Man,' and I had a character that everybody loved and so I decided to take this character and let everybody see what she was really about. [6:53] I had four girls in the book, Liz, Kesha, Denise, and Tanya, and everybody felt something about Liz. [7:10] Liz was a married woman with three kids and a husband and she was going through so much in her life and I wanted people to see what she was going through. [7:24] My friend of a long time who does productions asked me if I wanted to make a movie out of my book and I thought it was a great opportunity. [8:37] I directed and produced the whole thing and with some of his input, we had the film done which was just amazing. [9:03] I did everything out of my pocket without asking anybody for any funding because I wanted to do it on my own as I felt this was my baby. [9:50] I'm always ready to take risks because I believe that you will never know the outcome if you don't take a risk. [10:36] Commercial Break [10:52] My next goal is my stand-up comedy which I do as well and so right now I'm on a project with a local pizza place to do an open mic to give the community a chance to come in and showcase their talents including poetry, music, and comedy. [12:28] We have been sitting still for a year and now it's time to get out and get with the community and do something for them. [12:57] I'm also working on a game called ‘Choices' that is found on Play Store. [13:20] I'm also doing my Portugal course and I just submitted poetry and now waiting to see if I am going to get an award from it. [14:02] I feel like art is important because it shows it shows positive energy for me and shows people that you can do whatever you want. [14:35] Any direction that you go with regards to art, becomes beautiful if you put your time and energy into it. [14:47] When you have that positive energy, and have that wonderful art of letting people know the positivity, that's what I do. [15:14] We were down for a year and we didn't have anyone around us but our family and now as we are opening up we need to embrace each other and calm everything down instead of being all hostile and all everywhere. [16:18] Whatever art that you do it is a factor to unite people by accepting it or creating it and that is awesome. [16:35] You only live once in life and so when you do whatever you don't be scared of what other people think but do what you feel is best for you.

In countless surveys, people rank public speaking as one of the scariest things in the world. What better way to set yourself apart and brand yourself? Public speaking is one of the best ways to express your personal brand to your target audience. Why? Because it allows you to deliver a complete message while building powerful emotional connections with your audience. There’s no better way to reach an audience on a deep and human level. In this episode I interview Brian J. Olds, Founder of The Black Speakers Network.  Brian specializes in empowering rising professional speakers to create clarity, streamline systems and cultivate the relationships needed to reach the unique audience they are called to serve.

I had the opportunity to attend the inaugural #SpeakerCon2019 in Arlington, VA in early November. The experience was next level as speakers, authors, and podcasters came together to educate, network and celebrate each other. A conference like no other, SpeakerCon brought people who had connected online to space where they could connect offline. During the conference, I had the opportunity to do a quick interview with Brian J Olds who is the founder and CEO of Black Speakers Network. Brian shared some great insight into the journey of a speaker, including the process of finding your niche in the speaking industry. The story of his first speaking opportunity will resonate with many that have that fear of speaking. It led him to his passion for helping other speakers to not just get started but to sharpen their skills. We all know that it is only when you begin to sharpen your skills that you are able to generate revenue from your speaking. SPEAK UP! YOUR AUDIENCE AWAITS..."
