Our guest in today’s episode is Wendy Day, Founder of Rap Coalition, PowerMoves, Artist Centric, and Author of the book “How To Get A Record Deal”. 
Wendy completely revolutionized the Music/Rap Industry to what it is today. She helped launch the careers and mentored very famous rappers such as Master P, Eminem, Tupac Shakur, Chuck D, Lil Wayne, Juvenile, David Banner, Trouble, and many more. 

 Almost 30 years ago Wendy sold her condo, her investments, and her car to fund the non-profit organization Rap Coalition, in the hopes of supporting rap artists get out of bad record deals. In the 90s, the organization continued to flourish, and Wendy then brokered landmark music contracts with Twista and Atlantic Records, as well as Eminem with Interscope Records as well as a $ 30M contract with Cash Money Records and Universal Music Group. Altogether, Wendy's clients have sold over $1 billion of sound recordings. 

 Currently, Day is in the process of structuring an incubator by the name of Artist Centric, that is designed to help rap artists accelerate the business side of their music careers. 

In this episode, Wendy shares jaw-dropping anecdotes about her journey in the Music Industry as well as insightful advice and wisdom for all.

Our guest in today’s episode is Chris Bergeron, Author of the newly published book: Valide and Vice-President of Content Experience at Cossette in Montreal. 

Chris started her career as a columnist and contributed to major media outlets such as La Presse, Radio-Canada, and became editor in chief of the most predominant cultural magazine in Québec- VOIR. She then made the jump in advertising, working as Creative Director for major Fortune 500 Brands in Canada. Recently, she was appointed Vice-President of Content Experience at Cossette. 

Chris spent the first 40 years of her life as a heterosexual man. Several years ago, she started living her true self and came out as a Trans woman.

Belonging to a visible sexual minority profoundly changed her view of the role of women in the workplace. She also claims to have lost the corporate privilege that previously came when being a man in a leadership position.

Chris actively promotes diversity, inclusion, and the rights of transgender people by sharing her story on the public stage. And as of early 2021, Chris published her first novel, which delves into her trans identity, using a futuristic science fiction thriller as a backdrop.

In this episode, we discuss her career trajectory, the obstacles she faced along the way, how leaders can help change unconscious bias in the workplace and society.
