I sit down with Miahjé for a deep conversation about love, healing, faith, purpose, self discovery, and what it really means to become who you need to be. We talk about her writing journey, why love is a mirror, why no one is coming to save you, dating with intention, and the messy process of growth that people usually do not talk about.

Artist, Omega, Entrepreneur. In this episode, I sit down with my guy Miles Thomas. We talk about everything from throwing parties at Howard to navigating life after college.

We dive into the origin of Rebel Events, how it started with a party that actually lost money, and how the brand has grown into a post-grad nightlife movement. We also get into the business side of promotions, the importance of optics, and the mistakes people make when trying to collaborate.

We talk everything from party promotion, being an independent artist, greek life, Howard University and much more.

If you're figuring out life after college, building something of your own, or trying to stay true to yourself while chasing success, this conversation is for you.
