This time, we sat down with Wrabel, a singer-songwriter who has made music with artists like Kygo, Marshmello, Ke$ha, and P!nk. The night before this podcast, I saw Wrabel live in NYC and was blown away by his performance. He commands the stage and is unapologetically himself as a performer. I was excited to talk to Wrabel because he makes music that I love, 11 Blocks is my jam, and we spoke about many topics that can apply to anyone, even outside of music.

On this episode, Wrabel discusses coming out, getting sober and its effect on the creative process, the do’s and don’ts of breakups, and more. Wrabel is a cool guy, a beautiful soul, and I’m glad we had the chance to talk, so without further ado, here is our wide-ranging conversation with Wrabel.

This time we sat down with Connor Tumbaga (@connortumbaga), who sells sneakers to celebrity clients across the globe. He is the concierge for anyone who desires the first class, limited sneaker experience. He has sold sneakers to music artists like Da Baby, Trippie Redd, and he works with many influencers on Youtube, and in the video game industry as well.

Connor’s deals are in the big boy bank ranges, but it didn’t start that way. He hustled his ass off starting as a freshman in high school, waiting in lines for the most popular releases, building up an impressive contact list, and the most important part, delivering on the sale. He now has a network of people that work for him, but the hustle hasn’t stopped.

In this episode, Connor shares how he built a successful sales business from the ground up as a teenager in high school, how he has built a network with top clients around the world, how to navigate the hype of the limited sneaker industry, and more. Without further ado, here is our wide-ranging conversation with Connor Tumbaga.
