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!

1-in 8 women will get diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States in their lifetime and yet women still have to fight for proper healthcare. Today I'm talking to Philecia La'Bounty about being misdiagnosed and being told she had a benign cyst at 29. She was in the best shape of her life, internationally modeling, and she didn't look or feel sick. She had never had an issue. Blindsided by a diagnosis she's now spreading awareness about the importance of getting a mammogram and biopsies. As seen on the Dr. Phil show for medical gaslighting, Good Morning America, and in People Magazine, Philecia is now getting all the testing she needs and is on a mission to save other people.

280. How’d It Happen? Mike Malatesta
Monday Nov 28, 2022
Monday Nov 28, 2022
Does the mafia run the waste management industry or is that just in the movies? Mike Malatesta and I bonded over our interviews with Stephen M. R. Covey and the subject of trust.
I think a lot of entrepreneurs believe they can do it all on their own if they just keep working harder! As you mature you have to shift.
Mike Malatesta an entrepreneur, author, and coach has helped found, grow, and sell 2 waste treatment, recycling, and disposal companies. These companies collectively generated more than $500M in revenue while he was involved and sold for more than $180M. He's been featured in Inc., Forbes, Elite Experts Network, and Entrepreneur.
He lived in entrepreneurial shoes since he was 26. For 30 years he’s been through – and is still on – the roller coaster. He’s experienced the excitement, pain, grit, and mistakes that come with every entrepreneurial journey.
Today we are talking about the shifts he’s made in his life and what you don’t know about the waste management industry! Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy.
