Show Notes

Episode Summary (Show Notes):

In Episode 90, Bertrand chops it up with Terrell, a powerful creative force from D.C. who turned a passion for painting into a business, a billboard moment, and a platform for youth rehabilitation through art.

Terrell breaks down how he went from casually customizing a duffel bag to being tapped by Nike for an exclusive event. He speaks on the discipline, self-worth, and duality required to be a Black man and a visual artist in today’s world. They talk art as a masculine force, inspiration as a form of healing, and the real reason every man should create.

This one’s for every man holding a gift and wondering if it’s worth it. It is. And this episode proves why.
