Today's podcast is with someone who has truly inspired the Model Me journey.

I think I'm gonna share the back story!!

When I first met Chen Shire, who also goes by the name Chennessy (particularly in the music world), it was alongside meeting some other wonderful humans too - Swarzy Macaly, Chiko Shire, David Ajukobe, Ben Hurst, Ola Christian... - who I actually first found out about through Julian Knxx, a poet and creative director. I met Julian with two other very talented humans - one who I've been blessed enough to work with - Dumas Haddad, and Olan Collardy, in Joe and the Juice in Central London last August.

Julian spoke about Swarzy on his instagram... I started following her... massively inspired by this woman. She is certainly one to be inspired by. Through her I met our guest this week, Chen, and together all of these creatives, have really inspired me with the way they encourage and support each other, in their careers, on and offline!

Chen and I went IN on the creative industry - Chen is a very talented man; a producer, a DJ, Founder and Director of the events: *BIRDNOISE*, Surf, RILLA, Buy U A Drink...

Of course - you can see why I wanted to dive in to the way Chen see's the "appetite" in London, and in other various cities - Chen works abroad regularly too, but is based in London.

A hugely intriguing and intelligent character - I know you will be as fascinated as I was, listening to this podcast!
