  • 🎨 Brushstrokes & Boundaries: Art, Mental Health, and the Hustle
    What happens when a celebrity sneaker artist pulls back the curtain on her grind, growth, and the boundaries she had to set along the way?
    In this episode of Certified BS, Bria Simmons sits down with Marissa Confair, the creative force behind eMCee Kicks and KickStix, to talk about the real story behind the glitz of custom sneakers — from hand-painting for Fat Joe and DJ Khaled to managing live art activations for Google and Foot Locker. But it’s not just business — it's boundaries, burnout, and finding balance.
    💡 Tap in as we dive into:
    How Marissa turned nail art into a sneaker empire
    Building a brand in a male-dominated space (and getting mistaken for the assistant)
    The therapeutic power of painting — for kids, adults, and the inner child
    Why success means nothing without self-worth
    Boundaries, gratitude, and the not-so-glam parts of entrepreneurship
    Whether you're an artist, a hustler, or just trying to figure out how to protect your peace while chasing your passion — this one’s for you.

  • Is Money Dictating Your Mental Health!?
    Why do we treat money like a mystery? Why do smart people go broke chasing goals that don’t even belong to them? In this episode, Bria Simmons is joined by Kefim Simmons—finance exec, creative mogul, and the KS to her BS—to break down the real reason money controls our emotions.
    🧠 This is NOT a budgeting tutorial. This is a mindset shift.
    ⚠️ Warning: This episode might make you uncomfortable.
    • Is money really the goal?
    • Why does wealth feel unattainable?
    • Are you rich or just temporarily high-income?
    • Are you emotionally attached to your bank account?
    💥 From luxury as therapy to why you’re anxious every time you open your banking app—we’re unpacking the financial trauma no one talks about. Plus, how to actually get free: mentally, emotionally, and financially.

  • Are Emotions "BS"?!

Bria breaks down the myths, the messiness, and the meaning behind your emotional responses, and why understanding them is a game changer for your mental wellness journey.
    💬 Whether you call it feelings or emotions (yes, we use both), this episode is here to help you get in tune with what’s really going on inside.
    So, if you're ready to stop bottling it up and start leveling up, hit play. This one's for the feelers AND the thinkers.
