Welcome to Paris! 
We're having a gorgeous conversation with the lovely Sabrina this afternoon, talking through how she grew the Zouk scene in Paris, what it's like being a female artist on the scene and how DJ's are currently undervalued... Very interesting topics and we both hope you enjoy listening!

The man behind the Zouk worlds most comfortable embrace!
We're streaming live from Washington DC talking in depth with Gui Prada all about his past from being a lawyer to professional Zouk artist. 
Gui has an amazing story about how he overcame severe confidence issues that left him with a stutter, to being able to instruct and run huge crowds without any problems!

This episode is a very different and unique episode... that i've called 'Let's talk business'.

Over the last few years I've had the pleasure to meet and speak to so many talented creatives within the Zouk scene, from teachers to DJ's to organisers to videographers and so on.. and it seems so many of them have struggles from procrastination, to feeling over-whelmed, to not knowing where to get clients and not sure how to market or sell their products or services. 

My background and passion are in business -  I run a coaching company specific to creatives and performers and also have a number one amazon best seller called 'Pain in the arts - How to make money as a performer' - so today - I'm going to offer you my skills and let you all in on some very important lessons and 'secrets' that will change your business mindset and life.

I really hope you enjoy and find this extremely useful - Good luck on your jouney!

Probably the most sought after couple touring the world right now - They seem to have blown up since the pandemic and are literally taking over the Zouk world! 

We had such an interesting and deep conversation about their upbringing, how they stay passionate, their relationships, their partnership and most importantly their shared goals and ambitions.

I was so excited to finally interview these two beautiful human beings - and they did not disappoint. I wish I recorded the 1.5 hours I spoke to them before this interview and the 1.5 hours after! 
Such humble, talented and caring people.
