Marisa Explains It All [Episode 110: “All Money In”] ft. @Hire_Women

April 8, 2019Marisa Mendez Leave a Comment

It’s a somber week this week with the passing of not only Nipsey Hussle, but a personal friend of mine as well. The latter was sadly from suicide, and we discuss the reality of dealing with that, and then it’s a whole lot of Nipsey. We end the episode getting some insight and inspo from Jocelyn of Meet The Industry and the Hire Women agency, and her story is amazing and ALL about what we stand for at MEIA!

On this week of MEIA, Joyce and I discuss a ton of random shit — including making a cooking show where we make great things in the microwave. LMAO!

Joyce‘s description is way funnier than anything I could write, though:

Hey guys – watch out, we have a #badbitchalert out for Marisa Mendez as her #badbitchmakeover is upon us. This week Joyce joins Mari and the two get right into Marisa’s diet and her grand plans to get her life right come summer. This means car washes and cooking, you got this girl! We giving out free Weight Watchers knowledge on this episode, as well as some exclusive, definitely umm gourmet, microwave recipes. We also get into this week’s trending topics – Gucci’s new diversity initiatives and the college admissions scandal. Marisa is cooler than all of us and got to see Us movie twice already, but don’t worry there are no spoilers.

Marisa Mendez Featured on ‘Entertainment Tonight: Live’

This was SO amazing! Entertainment Tonight randomly shot me an email and asked if I wanted to join their conversation about music festivals in just two hours. Of course I said yes, and then I had to scramble to get my workout in and camera-ready in less than 120 minutes. Naturally I rose to the occasion (duh!), and the result was this. So cool! I don’t know how to search on ET’s website but if you want to try for yourself, check here. Otherwise, deal with the really cute screenshot above that Sasha captured, and the bootleg video of a video that I used for Instagram below.

Marisa Explains It All [Episode 107: “Six Degrees of Sexperation”]

March 18, 2019Marisa Mendez Leave a Comment

Today we’re joined by Imani J – a super dope, young entrepreneur who I met at a panel I hosted a few weeks back. I was impressed by her hustle and wanted to show her the ropes of my show and talk a little bit about how she actually inspired me! But we first jump into a couple of topics I really don’t care about, but sadly know a whole lot about, including the YNW Melly murder charges and Kodak Black dissing Lil Wayne. We move on to discuss the Millennium Tour and Raz B’s issues, and the importance of having a strong support system.
