In this episode, I talk to Cyan I about him almost quitting his passion for music. When I hear these types of stories they really hit home, because the entertainment industry is brutal on you personally and physically. 

Cyan I met in a Gary Vaynerchuk Instagram thread online. He had a very similar Los Angeles experience as I did.. as you'll hear in this episode, it's not a good one. I just remember asking him for a link to his work...

I was SHOCKED on how talented this guy is. He produces his own music and performs as well. This guy is just warming up, but I have a feeling he's going to explode here in the near future. It's just a matter of time.

How to get into public relations, working in public relations and how to start your public relations career is what we talk about in today's episode. In the entertainment industry, Public relations (PR) plays a HUGE role. When I work a red carpet event, you have to speak with the public relations specialist before you talk to the talent. They will tell you how long you have to talk to them, what not to talk about and they make sure the talent doesn't say anything they aren't supposed to say.

I started working with Kaci Pedersen of Kaci Pedersen Public Relations when I moved back to Atlanta. A 30 minute meeting turned into a 4 hour conversation. She aligned with my vision and my goals, so to hire her as my publicist was a no brainer. Kaci Pedersen defines Publicist as is a person whose job is to generate and manage publicity for a company, a brand, or public figure. Her services include - "At KPPR, “PR” houses various roles. It could be project management, marketing, social media, branding, and/or event planning- it all varies based on each client’s needs and what role we need to play in order to help them achieve their goals!"

Mental Health In The Entertainment Industry is something that doesn't get much press. Not many people in the entertainment industry talk about their depression, anxiety, or any type of mental illness. That's why Thomas Jordan sits down with Wendy Dickinson. Wendy Dickinson is a Licensed Psychologist and Founder / CEO of GROW Counseling in Atlanta, Georgia. 

Thomas Jordan and Wendy Dickinson also talk about how to get help with depression, how to treat mental illness, how to treat mental illness without medication. 

If you are in the entertainment industry (or just need someone to talk to) and want to talk to someone to help with your depression, anxiety, or mental illness - there are plenty of resources on GROW's website - www.growcounseling.com
