We recently chatted with the multi-talented and hilarious Julia Young about the newly-released book she co-wrote, Please Don't Grab My P#$$Y: A Rhyming Presidential Guide! Young, who stars on Wild N' Out, has written for the hit show as well as many others, with credits ranging from Desus and Mero to Celebrity Deathmatch, Girl Code, TRL and Impractical Jokers. She is a producer, comedy writer, actress, stand-up comedian, and improviser who has also taught her skills at creative workshops. Her advice for anyone with a dream? "Say yes to every opportunity, " and "Have the mentality of: I can't see myself doing anything else."

"I have many different personalities within each of my art. I never want to paint the same." -Alvaro. We had the pleasure of chatting with renowned painter and illustrator Alvaro about his career and life in general. The very personable artist is opening up his new solo exhibit this Thursday in NYC. Alvaro, who is known for pop, political, parody and fashion art has been active in his career for 37 years with supermodel clients, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez, @vogue @nytimes (his debut), @lorealusa @harpersbazaarus @vibemagazine @giorgioarmani just to name a few. Listen to PART ONE of our interview with the South Bronx-bred artist about how his parents influenced his career, his mentor the legendary Antonio Lopez, how Naomi Campbell helped him with his start, the time Andy Warhol called him fabulous, his top idol Harriet Tubman, and more!

One of our favorite quotes that came from chatting with Walter J. Tucker, founder and president (and music executive of over 20 years) of LiveThe.Biz, is, "There's no dream you can have where you're not helping someone else." If you think about it, your passion, whatever that may be, helps others in one capacity or another. This notion perfectly sums up Tucker, whose mission is to motivate and educate people around the world. He experienced the struggles of trying to network with the movers and shakers of the music business and decided that once he was in position, he would create an affordable platform for aspiring artists and music executives. And this Thursday LiveThe.Biz will celebrate its last mixer of the year with previous panelists from @atlanticrecords @epicrecords @genius @spotify and @bet just to name a few in NYC. Listen to learn more about Tucker's story, the event, his networking tips, the book he's writing and more!

Years ago when Michelle Wolett found out her parents lost their home (built by her father), she literally took matters into her own hands. Determined to help her parents, she started a few businesses. Chick-Lit Designs was born, in which the self-taught Michelle crafted materials and accessories for book lovers. Not only would the business become a success, it would also get Michelle back into reading again--in fact, Once Upon a Book Club has the same effect on many. Check out the interview to learn more about this unique book club, which replicates the items mentioned in novels!
