ROCK N ROLLING GO EXPERIENCE!!

Saturday was hot as F**k here in Hotlanta and it was freaking beautiful. Nothing better than getting some sun, a good workout, and a tan. As planned the OTR team, cool ass people, and I, met up at Skate Escape in Midtown to get rocking and rolling through the belt line. Our essentials this time around were Go Energy drinks and our Go Pro camera to document the experience. I had a super blast vibing out with fellow creative entrepreneurs such as my pal Justin from Hero The Band, Anastasia of Greigemarket.com, Nick from Buckhead Thread Designs, Convertible Bert, Kellye B, and other super awesome shakers.  Stay tuned for more Rock N Rolling Events near you!! Because the only way to live life is going forward and shaking up the atmosphere!! Hit play to check out the rolling experience!!

KICK ASS GIRL POW WOW No.1

 Hello BeYOUtiful beings!! I know I've been slipping on my blogging and video game as of lately, but life has been super busy handing me all kind of great ass opportunities that I must just step up to the plate for and knock out of the park. One of those opportunities was creating the first ever #KICKASSGIRLPOWWOW this past Saturday along with Creativenuova.com's founder Adia Dightman. I posted a flyer and info a few weeks ago on a blog post.
My little heart almost exploded from all the happiness and excitement I felt seeing this dream of mine manifested. My goal was to unite women of diverse backgrounds, professions, ages, and lifestyles in the means of inspiring, empowering,and sharing positivity and ideas. Our panel consisted of some very interesting and beYOUtiful women such as Dr. Karcheik Alvarado, she is an elegant woman Historian with a mean shoe game, Anastasia Nicole of http://greigemarket.com, The Bazaar Bohemian of http://www.projecttribe.org and http://www.printedpatternpeople.com, Oni of http://www.freshiam.net, and Faatima of http://mondesircollection.com. Not only are these ladies making waves in the digital space but in real life too!1 They shared valuable advice with us and nothing but good vibes ++++++. We sipped on some fancy champagne thanks to one of our sponsors, Matlock Advertising and munched on strawberries and mini cupcakes.  Our Pow Wow was held at The Collider tech start up space at the Biltmore in Midtown Atlanta.  Special shoutout to Collider for being our second sponsor.  We appreciated their support in helping us make this dream come to pass!! I have never felt more proud to be a woman, to be a freedom fighter, and to kick ass.  It was amazing to be in the presence of so many women of different walks of life from historians, scientists, fashion bloggers, tech girl, singers, and writers.  There was no dress code, be who you are!  There was no egos, no shade, no competition, no barriers.. We were just there to live, create, inspire! Hit play on our video recap so you can see what you missed and stay tuned for the next #KICKASSGIRLPOWWOW!

If you keep up with my blog posts or watch my show, "The SamOffThaRecord Experience", than you should know who my pals, "Hero The Band" are.  If you don't, then first of all, shame on you, but no worries catch up with the episodes featuring them HERE  & HERE.

Not only are Hero The Band rockstars, but also curators of Atlanta music events such as Atlanta Rock Of Ages.  These Heroes are also known to kill stages not only at Atlanta concerts but recently in California as well.  It has been quite a privilege to see these guys grow in the manner that they have and it's amazing to be a part of any event that they put together.  It's always an EXPERIENCE!  Yesterday was no exception, Hero The Band struck again!
