In this must-listen episode, we sit down with the incredibly talented multi-hyphenate Mekhai Lee. Not only is Mekhai an actor with an already impressive track record, but he’s also the co-creator of the hit web series For the Boys, which he filmed with his talented friends during the pandemic. Now, it’s in development as a TV series at an undisclosed network, with heavyweights Colman Domingo and Sarah Jessica Parker as executive producers.

We dive deep into the power of self-producing and how to grow your own audience, revealing how you can make the industry come to you. Mekhai also breaks down the mysterious path of how a newcomer can rise to showrunner status. This episode is packed with inspiration to get you fired up about creating your own work and reaching the people who truly resonate with it—without waiting for the industry's permission.
