Introduce Guest: I would like to Introduce my guest for today’s episode. Born in Astoria, Queens, Hala Maroc was nicknamed ‘Lil Bae’ due to her observative yet big mouthed personality. Hala would later begin using this personality to make a name for herself when she began attending the College of Staten Island, where she worked with WSIA. From this experience, Hala became encouraged and went on to work with radio stations that included 106.7 Lite FM, Power 105.1, Hot 97 and Sirius XM. While still in school she wrote several publications: Joonbug, Rapfest, and Dunk360. Hala graduated in 2014 and began curating and hosting trendy events and showcases. Hala then started working with veteran program director and afternoon drive personality in Fayetteville, Tap Money, of Fox 99. There Hala was able to be an on air personality and later went on to work with another top 10 radio station and is now back in NYC molding Bad Ass bootcamp and other projects. And just to note Hala is an on air talent and Beauty and Brand Ambassador, content creator, brand developer and event host.

Shanah’s Social Media and outreach:

My guest for today is Shanah Walton, the self proclaimed Bitcoin Bombshell, is a native New Yorker and emerging cryptocurrency investor. Her goal is to provide information to underrepresented demographics to get them involved in the digital currency arena. Shanah spent 10 years as a Restaurant manager, and got started investing in 2017. Motivated by acquiring enormous gains from her initial investment she began to educate herself even further and advising her circle of friends. While attending local crytpocurrency meet ups and info sessions she noticed and was disheartened by lack of representation. This inspired her to write her user guide "Demystifying Digital Currency". She promotes the guide as an instructional tool to help the uninformed learn the basics of bitcoin and other digital currencies and to provide step by step directives on how to get started investing in the industry. Bitcoin Bombshell hopes that her guide will be used as a tool to show the masses that digital currency is a valuable commodity and accessible to all. 

Host Perky and guest Shanah speak on the world of cryptocurrency and motherhood, and the balance of menstruation.
