EP.39 There isn't a day I am not grateful to be working during the pandemic. I consider myself "lucky" to not have to stress about my bills and to be able to continue some sort of normalcy throughout this difficult time for everyone. However, as a frontline worker I have to admit it has not been easy mentally, emotionally and physically. Although I am grateful, I'd also like a day off and not feel guilty about it. Those still working are disproportionately impacted by occupational stress and emotional burnout owing to the demands and responsibilities associated with administering the workload. These are adult conversations so heads up.

EP.38 Black representation on the big screen has come a long way, but with the #blacklivesmatter movement and more minority groups protesting in the streets for more representation... research shows there is still room for growth.

I chat with Tiffany Callender (@iamtiffanycallender) Executive Director of the Côte-Des-Neiges Black Community Association about being a Black female minority in North America, American politics, why young people can't be what they don't see and how to stop chasing titles and focus on serving your community.

EP.130 In the new episode of the Girl In The Verse podcast, we discuss the Taylor Swift Eras Tour and the challenges fans have faced in getting tickets. An estimated 31 million people registered for Taylor Swift Eras Tour Toronto tickets, but many were still unable to secure a spot. The Verified Fan system is designed to help manage high demand shows by identifying real humans and weeding out bots. However, it's clear that the system is not perfect, as there are still many fans who are being left disappointed. I chat with Joey, the co-founder and CEO of Team Wen Moon, a web3 agency. Joey has also worked with over 20 NFT projects. We discuss the potential of NFTs to solve some of the problems with ticket scalping and reselling. Building on its NFT capabilities, Ticketmaster has launched the ability for artists to offer token-gated ticket sales. This means that a sale can only be unlocked or accessed with a specific NFT. This feature allows artists to reward holders of specific NFTs with access to everything from special presales and prime seats to exclusive concert experiences or even custom travel packages. We also talk about the potential for artists to create their own NFTs that can be used as tickets. This would give artists more control over the ticketing process and allow them to set their own rules, such as preventing scalping or requiring fans to agree to certain terms and conditions before they can buy a ticket. For example, Taylor Swift could create her own NFTs that could be used as tickets for her concerts. She could set a maximum resale price for the tickets, and she could also collect royalties on any secondary sales. This would help to ensure that fans have a fair chance of getting tickets to her concerts, and it would also help her to make more money from her tours. We think this is a promising development, and we're excited to see how it's used in the future. Taylor Swift needs to create NFTs. Watch now and join the conversation!

#03 Melina was skeptical, but somehow ended up getting a fairy tarot card reading. She got some advice and help in her current life and future that she thought were bogus at first. But the cards she picked turned out to be pretty accurate. No matter what happens, it taught her to trust her strong feelings and stand her ground in following them.
