Y'all, this episode is EVERYTHING! 🎬✨ Meet Tracey Baker Simmons - the Emmy-nominated executive producer and reality TV pioneer who literally created "Being Bobby Brown" and changed television forever.

Twenty years ago, Tracey revolutionized how we watch television with "Being Bobby Brown," and she's STILL making moves! Just this past June, she dropped Nelly and Ashanti's highly anticipated reality show, proving she's the queen of authentic celebrity storytelling across generations.

From finessing her way into Houston's restaurant with a strategic resume to convincing Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston to do reality TV (when reality TV barely existed!), Tracey's got the ultimate playbook for divine positioning and she's sharing ALL the game.

In this episode, we dive deep into:

• The Houston's restaurant resume strategy that launched her entertainment career
• How she created "Being Bobby Brown" through pure divine positioning and six degrees of separation
• Why "every image makes an impression" and the responsibility of Black creators in media
• Her code-switching mastery and connecting authentically across all walks of life
• The "do you want my face or my voice?" approach to navigating white spaces
• Turning grief into purpose through documentaries and passion projects
• Why "your life can be someone's survival guide" for others
• How she's evolved reality TV storytelling from Bobby & Whitney to Nelly & Ashanti

Tracey keeps it 1000 about finessing the industry, staying woke unapologetically, and building authentic connections that open impossible doors. Twenty years later, she's still setting the standard for how celebrity reality TV should be done.
