Reena loves a story, and she‘s fascinated by the people behind them. She loves to bring stories to life. Her appetite for storytelling has taken her from the Jerry Springer Show to the legal drama of the courtroom. From influential players to reality stars, nothing is censored here. Reena interviews people whose stories haven‘t been told, at least not through her unique lens, and then gets daddy‘s advice afterward like a good daughter does. Whether you have daddy issues or a father who‘s inspired your path, you will be able to tap into my daddy‘s wisdom, wit, and humor at the end of every episode. My daddy has been a guiding light my whole life and there‘s not much he doesn‘t know, as an entrepreneur for forty-plus years, a husband, a loyal son, and my number one supporter. He has learned lots of life lessons along the way and is here to share them with you. It‘s time to reminisce and reflect on the conversations you‘d like to have with your daddy and learn from mine. Come share in some good old-fashioned family bonding and help us up our wisdom rating. There is wisdom from four generations and I’m addressing what happens from childhood to adulthood!

What happens when you put yourself in a room full of creatives and actually commit to building something?
In this episode of Better Call Daddy, I’m joined by Priscilla Mensah and my dad, Wayne Friedman, to talk about what we learned from our Creative Entrepreneurship Bootcamp at Houston Community College.
We didn’t just talk about ideas — we talked about execution.
Sales.
Contracts.
Insurance.
Separating personal and business finances.
Sustainability.
Mindset.
The stuff people don’t always glamorize.
Priscilla Mensah and I share what it feels like to test your ideas in real time — and why showing up (even when you’re unsure) is what really moves the needle.
We talk about:
• Why creativity without sales doesn’t scale
• The power of being in community with other builders
• Learning from setbacks instead of hiding from them
• Why every entrepreneur has to get comfortable with vulnerability
And of course, Dad weighs in with wisdom about surrounding yourself with creative people who push you forward.
If you’ve been sitting on an idea… this one’s for you.
Because you don’t need to be famous to be powerful.
You need to show up.
