Behind The Scenes Of The Business With The Real Husbands Of Largo
Hey Cuties,
A few days before the new year I hung out with the Real Husbands of Largo for a New Years Resolution show. This was a chance for us to discuss how to level up our goals/dreams/businesses, etc in 2018. Stacey and I had chatted about some of our accomplishments and realized we had accomplished so much on our own. None of this was rocket science but we both believe in sharing and educating the masses so we did.
I met Stacey last year at the UPC Family Tour and our personalities clicked. We laughed and had a good time; honestly, I click with most people, but they all aren’t as down to earth or outgoing as I am. This is the group picture we all took after our tour. From that day we all began following one another on social media. I would see Stacey post and like and comment and he would do the same. This is why it is so important to connect with people. I’ve connected with some of the ladies in this group after this event and it has been an awesome experience.
The Real Husbands of Largo are active men in their community, husbands, fathers, uncles, and all of that. They are giving the male perspective on life. They host their show on FB Live and cover a wide range of topics. My episode was on December 28th and thus far, the video has had 1.7K views. Aye!!!! You can watch the full show HERE! I was the first guest and WUSA 9 producer Renee Peace-Carr was the second guest; oddly enough I met her when I was on for my subscription box segment.
Watch your girl in action!

For sure, it is hilarious but it is great content.
This looks like it was a lot of fun. I would love to do something like this.
Turn on the Facebook Live and get started.
Well I am behind the times and totally clueless about this show. We don’t watch much tv anymore.
It is an internet show, its not actually on TV. At least not yet…
This sounds like a fun show! I’ll have to be sure to listen to it. It sounds like it’ll be really helpful.
It was really fun and so much information shared.
That was a really nice interview and I enjoyed the conversation! Not only was it insightful hearing you speak, but everyone was hilarious.
Thanks, Danasia. I love that they are hilarious.
Wow that looks really fun and helpful! I know I wan t all the help I can get with my branding.
We need to do a segment about branding, that is one of my favorite topics.
Will have to revisit and get more info with your work. Love to see the inclusion of both male and female perspective on life’s choices.
Yes, Angela. I think that is part of the excitement. The male and female perspective is so key.
What a cool opportunity! I’ve never heard of this show but I bet it was fun being on it and you shared some good tips too.

Thank you so much Mimi for this! I’ve bookmarked the video to watch for later. But the bullet points hit some of the questions I’ve been wanting to ask you for a while now. Thanks for sharing your expertise. A true sign of a confident worman.
Thank you so much Ola. I’m an open book. Shoot me an email with your questions. I will do a video and answer them all.

Yes, Ali. We make it look pretty but sometimes it is every but that.
This sounds like such a wonderful event. It’s great you were able to meet and chat with the Real Husbands of Largo. I am totally trying to scale up my business in the new year.

Thank you for introducing me to the Real Husbands of Largo because I’ve never heard of them. Now that I do know about them I’m going to let me husband know because he would enjoy listening to them.
Yay, thanks for sharing that with hubby.
Thanks for breaking it down for us cheap seats folks! LOL I love that mentioned building a relationship on social media. Too many people focus solely on self-promotions and not enough on connections.
Hahaha, we can’t make it to the top alone.
Thank you for sharing this interview. I hadn’t heard of the series, but will be tuning in from now on.
Thanks, they go live every Thursday at 10 PM. The topics change every week.
Great segment Mimi! It’s nice to see men who are active in their communities. I enjoyed the interview, and it looks as if you all had a great time together.
Yes, I freaking love that. Society wants us to think they don’t exist but I know better.
Becoming your brand is an exercise in patience for sure. You embody yours so well, that I always think CuteLips before I even think of your last name. Congratulations on all of the appearances you’ll have on RHOL!
Thanks, it is funny how people I’ve known all my life also call me Cute Lips. I need to do a branding session.
Great job. I caught a short portion, but I’d love to go back and listen to the whole show.
I’d love to see these types of conversations on broadcast TV vs The Love & Hip Hop/Real Housewives programming we see too often.
Yes, Joyce. I would love to see that as well. I working on that dream.
What a fun way to spend your time. These guys sound amazing and I can’t wait to follow along. I’m headed over to watch your show.
Thanks, they were such a good time. I look forward to working with them again.
Such a great interview and cheerful crowd. Very informative too
