Podcasts about Unapologetically

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk www.LearningLeader.com The Price of Becoming is a USA Today, LA Times, and Publishers Weekly Bestseller! www.LearningLeader.com/Becoming My guest - Mark Pincus is the founder of Zynga, the social gaming company he built from zero to $12.7 billion, pioneering a category that generated over a billion app installs and introduced hundreds of millions of people to online play. He's a serial founder who has started ten companies, taught product development at Stanford, and made early seed investments in Facebook and Twitter. His new book is Life at the Speed of Play. Key Learnings Coaches are cheat codes. Mark has hired a surfing coach, a tennis coach, a chess coach, a life coach, and the legendary Bill Campbell. None of them were assigned to him. He went and found them. "You throw to where you swing. You don't swing to where you throw." His tennis coach, Jorge, on learning how to serve. Commit to the natural swing first. You'll miss. You'll look stupid. Eventually your brain realizes you're serious and puts the ball where it belongs. You play to get better. You don't play to win. Not this point. Not this match. What am I doing right now that makes me better in the next game? Kill the ego so it gets out of the way of you being humble and curious. Don't contort the organization around one talented jerk. Colleen McCreary, Zynga's chief people officer, kept a sign on her wall: "No jerks allowed." She once vetoed an acquisition because she believed the founder was toxic. When the organization sees you refuse to bend just to win one point, they build muscle and confidence too. You'll have periods out of alignment. That's okay. Sometimes the person is in a crucial seat and you can't swap them tomorrow. What matters is that you're aligned with the philosophy. Bill Campbell's two lessons: intellectual honesty and courage. Be committed to the deep truths above everything else, and say them to your team even when it hurts. Then have the courage to stand up to your own team, your own board, and your own investors. A well-run company is a democratic dictatorship. Campbell leaned heavily on the dictatorship half. Unapologetically. The flip side of ambition is sacrifice. Everyone says they're a ten out of ten on ambition.  Mark's test: would you toil in obscurity for the next ten years, nobody respecting what you're doing, for an 80 or 90 percent chance at something bigger than your wildest dreams? Or take the 80 percent chance at a respectable single and a pat on the back? Nobody believes in us as much as we do. That's why we become founders. At 41, VCs who had already backed Mark twice told him he was too old, too rich, and too settled to go all in on Zynga. Mark isn't all in until he is. He calls it a lazy on-ramp to curiosity. Lots of projects. Looking for signals in a lot of places. Processing. Then it flips. "When the fish are running, we're up all night throwing nets until they're done running, not until we're tired." The chess lesson: play boring. His chess coach told him if you want to beat a player rated much higher than you, play boring and conservative and let them make the mistake. He started doing it. He started winning. Your kids don't follow what you say. They follow what you do. Mark set out to be a different kind of dad than his own, who measured people by their résumé. Then he watched his 15-year-old daughter spend every waking minute with math tutors before leaving on a service trip. "How did we get here? Oh, I know how we got here. They're not listening to what Dad says. They're following what Dad does." Happiness comes from feeling useful to a community you care about. Not from being useful. From feeling it. That's Alfred Adler, by way of The Courage to Be Disliked. There are two levels of success. A life well lived is a life in alignment with what only you can bring to the world. You don't have to build Google to feel like you went for it. The ultimate success is the greatest instantiation of your talents. Use money as freedom, not lifestyle. When Freeloader sold and 28-year-old Mark had more money than he'd ever imagined, he made a list of everything he was going to buy. It totaled about $9,000. He put leather interior in his Pathfinder. He still has the vehicle.  He set a $500 million goal that had nothing to do with buying things. At a net worth around $15 million, working with a life coach, he wrote it down because that's the capital required to run a studio of teams chasing many ideas without going to anyone else with hat in hand. "Creatively, that's freedom." Retirement is spiritual death. The stretches between building things are what Mark calls the abyss. Once you've felt the high of building with a great team and shipping something into users' hands every week, it ruins you. You can't be happy with less. Over-fund the things that matter. Not every day is the same. Not every life moment is the same. When one of those moments comes, put all your best players on the ice. The Allen & Company investor tour. They told Mark it was a dog and pony show. Just shake some hands. He told his team: this is our IPO, this is our roadshow, and we are going to use every minute of it the way we want. He gave the biggest public market investors a full presentation, handed them his numbers, and told them to judge him against those numbers in a year. He met with them a year later and had crushed them. King for a day. Carol Bartz brought Mark in to talk to Yahoo's entire senior management. He spent two weeks building a presentation on how he'd run Yahoo if he were king for a day, stood up, and took over the room for an hour. They got a deal done and one person in that room came to work for him. He ran the same play on the CEO of AMEX with a credit card that competed on fun. Amex spent $75 million with them. Seven minutes with Obama became 45. Mark was told the President would ask about his kids and then the meeting would be over. He walked in with a PowerPoint on the ten bold objectives he'd run on if he were president. Obama went through the entire thing and then asked what else he had. Prepare as hard for everything going right as you do for everything going wrong. Mark had under-prepared for the version of where Obama said, "Yeah, I'm buying. What else you got?" We sleepwalk through our own biggest moments. The question isn't what's the agenda or why they want to meet with you. It's: I have five minutes with the king. What is theoretically possible here? The Book of Life. Every year during the Jewish New Year, Mark writes in the same book. Only during that window. It isn't a journal. It's a spiritual board meeting with himself. He reads back through every previous year first, then writes. Partner with your future self. "What will Mark 2030 thank me for doing right now?" It started with quitting smoking. October 19, 1994. "I pulled my own power back. If I can quit smoking and really commit to it, what else can I do?" A year later he quit his job and did something bigger. Even if you missed the big goal, ask what you actually did toward it. Did you talk about it? Did you do real things? Did you turn the boat toward it? If not, maybe you don't believe in the goal. When Mark is at his lowest, he's humbled, he picks achievable goals, and he finds the most grit. When he's winning, he picks stratospheric goals and does the worst. After his biggest successes, he isn't humble enough to succeed again, and he has to go through failure to reel himself back in. Mark's champagne moment a year from now: that the book connects for hundreds of thousands of people, and that he's built a product people find real meaning in. Reflection Questions If you went and hired a coach, who is the person who could most change your life right now?  What is your next high-stakes moment, and are you treating it like the dog and pony show or like your IPO? What is the one habit your future self would most thank you for making this year? What would it unlock if you actually committed to it?

In this episode, Caroline addresses the backlash and "sellout" accusations she received following a vacation bikini post on social media. She opens up about her six-year health transition through menopause during the pandemic, navigating symptoms like brain fog, hair loss, hot flashes, and mood swings, which required her to revamp her vitamins, diet, and daily habits when former routines failed. Caroline reflects on how being transparent can shift audience expectations, emphasizing that people shouldn't expect her to remain unchanged—particularly as she prioritizes staying healthy and independent while witnessing her mother's declining health. She details her current approach, including monthly blood panels, various workouts, and her openness to GLP-1 medications and peptides. Ultimately, she calls on women to stop criticizing one another, embrace mutual support, and focus on individual wellness paths, even if they look different from traditional expectations.

Natasha Hamilton is one of the most defining voices of 2000s UK pop, selling 10 million records worldwide with Atomic Kitten and today, she is carving a lane for herself as a solo star with the release of her debut EP "Extraction". Having made an indelible mark on our pop landscape with monster hits like 'Whole Again', 'The Tide is High (Get The Feeling)', and 'Be With You'; Natasha's now living her best life giving us vibrant, dance floor-ready bangers that feel both personal and, also, universally uplifting. Joel sits down with Natasha for a career-spanning chat - from her joining Atomic Kitten as a teenager and navigating the rollercoaster of the music industry ever since, with line-up changes and reunions, through to finding her voice as a solo artist. We get into 'Miss Emotional' and the time after Atomic Kitten where she worked with acclaimed hitmaker Toby Gad (who crafted hits for Beyoncé and John Legend), the Lionel Richie tour where she played bops that were never released. Justice for the limited-release dance hit 'Round and Round'!We dive into her fantastic debut EP "Extraction", the stunning visuals she has created in this universe, and her passion for working with creatives in the North West. From the angsty and emancipatory 'Numb' to the poignant storytelling of 'White Feather', and the joyous sun-kissed bops 'Garden of Eden' and 'Milk and Honey'; Miss Natasha brings the voice of experience and her warm, playful personality into everything and we are honoured to have this conversation with her.Stream "Extraction" here: https://awal.ffm.to/extractionepFollow Natasha Hamiltonhttps://www.instagram.com/natashahamilton/https://www.youtube.com/@TheNatashaHamiltonhttps://natashahamiltonofficial.comFollow Right Back At Ya!https://www.instagram.com/rightbackpod/https://twitter.com/rightbackpodhttps://www.facebook.com/rightbackpodFollow Joelhttps://www.instagram.com/dr_joelb/https://twitter.com/DR_JoelBFollow Davidhttps://www.instagram.com/lovelimmy/https://twitter.com/lovelimmyEmail us rightbackpod@gmail.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Back home after a month traveling through Indonesia, Italy and Greece, Hillary shares one of the most important shifts happening in how we work, create and contribute — and it's the opposite of everything we've been taught.The old paradigm said: find out what the market needs, then deliver it. The new paradigm says: find what you can't not do, what feels so natural you'd do it for free, what lights you up so completely that it would take more energy to stop — and share that. Unapologetically. In your way.This is the inward out approach, and it changes everything about how you create, how you show up, and how magnetic you become.In this episode:The inward out approach explained — why the new paradigm starts from within, not from market researchDon't ask what the world needs from you. Ask what you need to give to the worldWhy your greatest impact comes from joy, not service — and how that actually serves more peopleThe Colibri bird story: why doing your bit from authentic life force is always enoughYou cannot be underqualified for something you were divinely givenHillary's own design: how her 5/1 projector profile, defined heart and LAX Education 1 have always been expressing through her — even in lawWhy people don't come to you for what you know — they come for the frequency you carryThe energy of authenticity as divine energy — and what Hillary unlocked in breathwork about her own visibility edgeJudgment as a lower frequency that limits your manifestations regardless of what else you're doing rightHow to find your natural expression: look at who you already are with your family and friendsWhy the things you're drawn to are not by accident — and how to trust themUndefined G center and identity: why your purpose is not fixed and doesn't need to beAWAKEN BALI RETREAT - NOV 2026Become CERTIFIED in HD in the Advanced Human Design CertificationTHE EXPANSION LIVE TOUR: Join us in person for a transformative day event in AustraliaTHE EXPANSION: Expand into your highest potential and timeline for conscious business owners, coaches and entrepreneurs InstagramGet your free Human Design Chart

Elon Musk builds rockets. You build buildings. Different industry. Same problems. Bad requirements, bloated processes, too many parts, slow cycle time. Eric Jorgenson is the CEO of Scribe Media and the author of The Book of Elon, a curated collection of Elon Musk's most useful ideas drawn from his tweets, interviews, and public conversations. In this episode, we walk through Elon's five-step algorithm and apply it directly to how construction companies get work, plan work, and build work.   What you'll learn: Why questioning requirements and deleting parts is 80 percent of the algorithm How the idiot index reveals where your supply chain is taking you for a ride First principles thinking vs. reasoning by analogy, with concrete construction examples Why fast is actually cheap and how it breaks the construction trilemma How to attack the bottleneck instead of running the calendar How to give people hardcore feedback without making it personal   Get The Book of Elon (free digital version): https://www.elonmuskbook.org/ Connect with Eric Jorgenson on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erjorgenson/ Eric's newsletter: https://www.ejorgenson.com/newsletter Eric's podcast, Smart Friends: https://www.ejorgenson.com/podcast Free Succession Planning Guide: https://www.constructiongenius.com/free-succession-planning-guide

The world of He-Man and Eternia is not one that as many people will be familiar with as Transformers or even G.I Joe. The last film adaptation was released all the way back in 1987, when the property was at the height of its powers. The newer animated series had a very mixed reception among fans of the original cartoon, but was very well received by newer fans.

On this episode of The District 3 Podcast, Irvin Camacho sits down with Meredith Butler, co-owner and operator of Pizzeria Ruby and Pizza Lottie's. Meredith shares her journey through the food service industry, the importance of building community through food, and why her businesses have taken a bold and very public stance in support of immigrants and against ICE policies.This conversation highlights what it means to be a true ally and advocate for immigrant communities, while also exploring the responsibility local businesses can have in standing up for the people they serve. Honest, timely, and deeply personal, this episode is a powerful discussion about community, courage, and using your platform to make a difference.

In this episode of Ask and Answered by Soul, Jennifer Urezzio sits down with Deborah Keevan, founder of Highlander Press, bestselling author, and champion for women's voices, to discuss the power of sharing your story unapologetically. Together, they explore why storytelling begins with creating safety within yourself and how writing—or even speaking—your story can be a profound healing tool. Deborah shares that many people believe their stories aren't important enough to tell, when in reality, our experiences often become the very thing that helps others feel seen, understood, and less alone. Jennifer and Deb discuss how our past experiences, pain, and perceptions shape the stories we tell ourselves, and how revisiting those stories from a healed perspective can reveal new truths, gifts, and wisdom. They also offer practical advice for aspiring writers, including letting the first draft be messy, using voice-to-text tools, and focusing less on perfection and more on authenticity. The conversation ultimately reminds us that our stories are not just about us—they are invitations. Invitations for others to heal, connect, and recognize that they are not walking this journey alone.

There were two versions of this podcast. The one you heard: strategy, growth, frameworks, confidence. And the one happening when I hit record: depression, suicidal ideations, doubt, and a man running from everything he refused to face. You didn't know. But you held me up anyway. Episode 701 isn't a celebration. It's a confession and a thank you. In this raw, unfiltered solo episode, George pulls back the curtain on what the last six and a half years of this podcast have actually looked like behind the scenes,  the darkness, the performing, the shame, and the slow, painful process of becoming someone who actually lives what he teaches. This is not a strategy episode. It's a permission slip, for you, and for George. What You'll Learn In This Episode: What was really happening behind the scenes during some of the show's most downloaded episodes Why performing confidence while falling apart only widens the gap between who you are and who you're pretending to be How consistency, even when it was the only thing holding George together, became the unexpected path to healing Why the episodes George most feared posting hit the hardest every single time The moment "relationships beat algorithms" stopped being a philosophy and became a conviction What shame does to your business, your relationships, and your capacity to actually help people Why doubt, mess, and reinvention are qualifications, not disqualifiers The one thing 701 episodes taught that no framework or model ever could Key Takeaways: ✔️The podcast you heard was a director's cut. The real version was messier, darker, and more honest than what made it to publish and that gap almost broke George. ✔️Showing up is how you get it together. You do not need to have it figured out first. ✔️Teaching something you've never lived is a hiding place.  ✔️The episodes you're most afraid to post are usually the ones people need most. Fear is often a signal, not a stop sign. ✔️Isolation and self-doubt feed each other. The faster you get stuck, the more you isolate. The more you isolate, the faster you get stuck. ✔️Trust is not a soft metric. It's a feeling and it determines everything: buy-in, effort, results, and the depth of every relationship you'll ever have. ✔️People always come before products. Not as a tagline. As a law. ✔️You don't need more information. You need permission: to be messy, to evolve, to show up before you're ready. ✔️The mess is the qualification. Your struggles, doubts, and reinventions are not proof you don't belong. They're proof you're actually in it. Timestamps & Highlights: [00:00] — The two versions of this podcast: what you heard vs. what was really happening [00:57] — Why 701 isn't a milestone, it's evidence [02:30] — How this podcast started: COVID wiped out six figures a month overnight [04:45] — Running from fatherhood, relationships, and himself, the real reason George hit record [07:00] — "Unapologetically authentic", wearing the shirt but not living it [09:30] — Teaching the emotional journey with logic while refusing to take it himself [12:00] — Performing vs. being: the gap that was breaking him from the inside out [15:00] — The episodes he was most afraid to post were the ones that hit the hardest [17:30] — What the audience gave back: grace and acceptance before George could give it to himself [20:00] — Around episode 300–450: when things started to shift [22:30] — The moment "relationships beat algorithms" became a law, not a lesson [25:00] — How shame became the hiding place and what it cost him [27:30] — The addiction to distraction and doubt keeping entrepreneurs stuck in paralysis [30:00] — This episode is a permission slip, not a framework [33:00] — What George is still learning: fatherhood, friendship, faith, and being on the field [36:00] — The hill he'll die on: people over products, always [38:00] — A thank you: to the ones who stayed, left, came back, and prayed Your Challenge This Week: If any part of this landed, George wants to hear from you. Send him a DM on Instagram. Tell him what hit. Tell him where you're stuck. Tell him you listened. You don't need a polished message, just reach out. And if this show has ever meant something to you, an honest review is the best way to help another entrepreneur find it when they need it most.

Strategy, support, and people who will actually tell you the truth. 1:1 Private Coaching: Limited spots. If you want George on the field with you, not just coaching from the sideline, apply to work together. Live Retreats:  Immersive in-person experiences for entrepreneurs ready to stop hiding in their competencies and start building from who they actually are.

Sadly I cannot respond directly to your text, so please Email me!This episode came from a response to one of my newsletters… and it turned into a really honest conversation.The question was simple, but deep:What if submission isn't something you choose… What if it's something that's always been there?In this episode, we talk about what it means to be unapologetically submissive — not as a fantasy, but as part of someone's identity.We dig into: Knowing you're submissive from a young age  The idea that submission isn't a choice, but something that “chooses you”  The difference between extreme submission fantasies and real-life relationships  Why some submissive men crave deeper levels of control than most dynamics provide  The role of trust when it comes to power exchange  Why finding the right woman matters more than finding a “dominant woman”  How open-mindedness can build a dynamic where both partners grow into their roles We also talk honestly about what that level of submission actually looks like in real life — and how it's not always about pain or extreme scenarios, but about control, trust, and being led.This episode is less about rules… and more about understanding the psychology behind submission.If you've ever questioned where your desires come from — or how to navigate them in a real relationship — this one will hit.Key TakeawaySubmission isn't always something you “decide.”For some people, it's something they've always known — they just didn't have the language for it yet.Support the showWant to keep this conversation going?Join us inside FLRSkool.com — where real couples are having real conversations about female-led relationships, power exchange, chastity, and everything in between.Full video versions of the podcast are now exclusively available inside Skool.And if you've supported me on Patreon in the past… DM me there.

In Episode 705 of Daily Influence, Brian Smith, PhD steps outside the traditional business lens and into one of his personal passions—art. Joined by contemporary wildlife artist Kriti Tiwari, this conversation explores the deeper connection between creativity, discipline, and influence. Kriti shares her journey from a 17-year corporate career to becoming a full-time artist, revealing how emotion, consistency, and intentional practice shape her work. This episode is not just about art—it's about expression, courage, and the discipline required to bring what's inside of you into the world. Key themes include: The balance between intentional design and creative discovery Why discipline—not talent—is what sustains growth How art influences emotion, perspective, and identity The courage to stop hiding and fully express who you are Whether you're an artist, a business leader, or someone navigating your next step, this conversation will challenge you to think differently about how you show up and what you're truly creating.

What happens when you stop caring what people think—and start saying exactly what everyone else is too afraid to? This episode sits down with Lisa, better known as Kitchenkillalisa, the unapologetic, wildly relatable creator who built a viral following in her 60s by telling the truth: about aging, weight loss, beauty, and confidence. Lisa shares how her journey through major weight loss, cosmetic procedures, and life transitions didn't just change how she looks—it completely reshaped how she shows up. Her mindset? Unfiltered, fearless, and rooted in the belief that strangers on the internet don't get to define your worth. But this isn't just a social media success story. After being unexpectedly fired from her corporate job, Lisa found herself at a crossroads—and instead of shrinking, she leaned all the way in. What started as casual TikToks turned into a platform that's opened doors she never imagined, from brand deals to once-in-a-lifetime experiences. In this conversation, we get real about: What confidence actually looks like (and how to build it at any age) The truth behind weight loss, Botox, and doing what feels right for you Letting go of fear, judgment, and the need for approval Reinventing your life when you least expect it Why it's never too late to go all in on yourself Lisa is proof that the most powerful thing you can be is yourself: loudly, messily, and without apology.

Today I sit down with Dr. Nicole Butts, best-selling and award-winning author, speaker, and organizational culture strategist and expert, whose new book is SHIFT: A Transformational Journey from Playing Small to Unapologetically Thriving. This conversation is a masterclass in what happens when high-achieving leaders (especially women) finally stop outsourcing their worth to other people's approval—and start leading from alignment. Nicole opens up about something almost every great leader experiences, but few say out loud: that moment right before a big opportunity where the old story shows up—I'm not worthy. I don't belong here. She literally started drafting me an email to back out… and then caught herself in the act. That “shrinkage story” (her words) became the doorway into the deeper work—and the reason she wrote SHIFT. We go into: why powerful women still play small in male-dominated systems (and how it shows up in everyday language), how “worker bee syndrome” keeps people doing everything… except being seen as a leader, and Nicole's core equation for transformation: consciousness + courage = transformation. If you've ever felt like your work should “speak for itself,” this episode will challenge you—in the best way.   What You'll Hear in This Episode   1) The real reason accomplished women still shrink   Nicole breaks it down into three forces: Cultural conditioning: being taught to be “likable,” defer, and not take up space—showing up as hedging language like “I'm not really sure, but…” Structural dynamics: being outnumbered (especially for women of color), which changes how safe it feels to be visible. Internalized stories: “If I just do a really good job and keep my head down, they'll notice.” Nicole is clear: that's not reliably true.   2) “Worker bee syndrome” and the promotion you never get   I share a pattern I see constantly: the whole department rides on someone's back… and then they're shocked when they're passed up. Why? Because leadership isn't only output—leadership is visibility, positioning, and presence. I call it “leadership me time”—stepping back from nonstop doing so people can actually see you leading. Nicole agrees and names it “reactive doing”—being busy, carrying everything, but not intentionally showing up as the leader. And then she drops a line I want you to remember: “By design, the work isn't the leader. You are the leader.”   3) The SHIFT framework: a roadmap out of “playing small”   Nicole shares the backbone of her book as an acronym: S — Set your North Star H — Here I — Illustrate your path forward F — Forge ahead T — Thrive And she didn't just write a roadmap—she made it real. After each step, she includes a section called “Follow My Journey” where she shows how she personally moved through that step.   4) The inner equation for leadership: consciousness + courage   Nicole explains why transformation requires two things: Consciousness (awareness): noticing the old pattern in real time so you can interrupt it. Courage: taking aligned action even with fear present—like deleting the email draft and saying yes to the opportunity instead.   Her distinction is sharp: Awareness sets the course. Courage fuels the journey.   Try This After You Listen (Practical Actions)   Audit your language for “softeners.” If you regularly start with “I'm not sure, but…” practice leading with the point first. Schedule “leadership me time." Block time weekly to think, plan, mentor, and communicate—not just execute—so you're seen leading, not only producing. Name your shrinkage story. When it shows up, don't argue with it—notice it. That awareness creates choice. Choose one aligned action you'll take while still nervous. That's courage—aligned action in the presence of fear.   Resources + Links Dr. Nicole Butts (website + books): NicoleButts.com Connect with Nicole on LinkedIn Book: SHIFT: A Transformational Journey from Playing Small to Unapologetically Thriving   About Dr. Nicole Butts Dr. Nicole Butts is a best-selling and award-winning author, speaker, and organizational culture strategist who helps individuals and institutions unlock transformation.   -----   If you enjoyed this episode, please leave a 5-star rating, write a few kind words about the show and our guest, and share it with someone who's ready to stop shrinking and start leading. --------John Bates provides 1:1 Executive Communications Coaching, both in-person and online.

In this episode of The Authority Company Podcast, Joe Pardavila sits down with DeAngela Burns-Wallace, CEO of the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, former U.S. diplomat, and author of Made for This: Lessons in Leadership, Legacy, and Living Unapologetically. Together, they explore how family, faith, and community built the foundation of her leadership journey. DeAngela shares how her grandmother's example of service shaped her view of responsibility, why Youth Sunday at Paradise Missionary Baptist Church became her first leadership training ground, and how early exposure to Robert's Rules and public speaking prepared her to lead in high-stakes rooms. She reflects on confronting racism as a high school senior, the emotional weight of reliving that experience, and how mentors and community at Stanford helped her move forward with strength rather than fear. The conversation also dives into her lifelong love of education, the belief that knowledge creates agency, and her work advancing economic mobility through barrier removal and access. DeAngela explains how she approaches the word “equity” in a divided climate and why strong communities benefit everyone. This episode is about legacy, intentional community building, and the responsibility leaders carry to create environments where the next generation can thrive.

FacebookTiktokInstagramBioDJ, producer, and influencer DJ SoulChild AC is preparing to release his debut album Douby, featuring the single “Eat It Up (Get Up)” with Juiiciana. The project brings together Black artists from multiple genres under his creative direction, showcasing a vibrant fusion of hip hop, R&B, Brazilian funk, and house music.Few can match the drive and resilience of DJ SoulChild AC. Years ago, while working at a local Target, he spent his breaks at a neighboring Guitar Center where a friend worked. There, he taught himself how to operate DJ equipment. As his confidence and skills grew, he began earning respect from other DJs. Within months, he entered a competition. Although he did not win, the experience pushed him forward. Just three months later, he was DJing in nightclubs and had discovered his calling.In 2017, he expanded into music production. Determined not to limit himself to DJing alone, he began learning how to make beats through YouTube tutorials, starting with Ableton as his first digital audio workstation. Beginning his production journey later than many of his peers only fueled his ambition. Inspired by legendary artists who found success on their own timelines, he remains confident that his moment is coming.The name DJ SoulChild AC was born from a late night conversation with a fellow DJ. The nickname SoulChild reflected his deep knowledge of classic music from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, influenced by his mother's extensive record collection. Because the name was already in use overseas, he added AC to represent Atlantic City, the place that shaped him.His upcoming 15 track album Douby represents the culmination of months of focused work. The project celebrates the Black diaspora by highlighting Black genres and elevating powerful vocalists alongside his production skills. Among his favorite tracks are “Envy” featuring Nova The Rebel, “The Movement” featuring Jordan Isiah, and “Studio 54,” a pure house track inspired by his love for disco. He believes “Studio 54” has the energy to thrive in any house festival or club setting.Early feedback on Douby has been overwhelmingly positive. DJ SoulChild AC hopes the album will land on the Billboard Top 200, bringing greater recognition to his collaborators and opening doors for future partnerships. Unapologetically outspoken about his political beliefs, he previously lost DJ opportunities in New Jersey because of them. Now, he stands firm. This album is both a creative statement and a declaration of independence. If audiences want the music, they will get both the art and the artist.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.
