Do you know about the myth of the mysterious water dragons? Do you know where their story originates? No? Well, join us this week as we sit down to talk with two of the filmmakers of the latest animation hit from Disney, <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VIZ89FEjYI'>Raya, and The Last Dragon</a>.

Madison interviews voiceover actor Emiko Susilo, who consults the animators through the Southeast Asian Trust on the cultural accuracy of the movie. She is joined by Kaliko Hurley who worked as a production manager for Raya and is also the author of <a href='https://www.amazon.com.au/Raya-Last-Dragon-Osnat-Shurer/dp/1797202979'>Art of Raya and the Last Dragon.</a>

With this being Women's History Month, the insight, talent, and compassion these ladies bring to the conversation will inspire minds from young to old. And the story of how so many people came together to collaborate on this movie is a testament to the movie itself, and its' theme of unity. 

Raya and the Last Dragon is available in theaters now, or you can rent it on-demand at Disney Plus. And to learn more about Madison's product line go to <a href='http://www.ShopMadisonLauren.com'>www.ShopMadisonLauren.com.</a>

March is Women's History Month. In the spirit of shedding light on black history while embracing women's history, we often see crossover opportunities such as this week's episode. We have a newly elected Vice President, Kamala Harris, a graduate of <a href='https://home.howard.edu/'>Howard University</a> and a member of the <a href='https://aka1908.com/'>Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority</a>. But it was Activist Shirley Chisolm who paved the way nearly 50 years earlier as she became the first black and first woman to become a candidate for the President of the United States. In this episode, we explore how both equally powerful women confronted the obstacles in their paths in uniquely different ways, with a result leading to historic firsts.
