Today’s topic: Micah owns Revel Spirits and chats mental strength and balance

GUEST: Micah McFarlane is founder and CEO of REVEL Spirits, an innovative agave spirit made naturally in Morelos, Mexico. Micah has over twenty years as an executive in the entertainment industry managing all aspects of multi-million-dollar tours for artists such as Cyndi Lauper, Dwight Yoakam, Bob Newhart and Blondie. His experience spans logistics planning, contract negotiations, sales & marketing, extensive festival production, sponsorship sales and talent buying. He is an entrepreneur, co-founding and operating a successful management company, which engaged in active and aggressive promotions, tour coordination, booking, career planning and scheduling.

When launching REVEL, Micah wanted to do something incredibly bold and different – so he created an entirely new category under the agave umbrella called Avila, which is a handcrafted agave-based spirit, often thought of as the lovechild of tequila and mezcal. He is now joined by part owner and celebrity Justin Hartley and has launched four Avila products, Revel Avila Blanco, Reposado, and Añejo and canned cocktail the REVEL Avila Spritz. Micah has created a world of success and actively influences people in the black and brown community to pursue their dreams of reaching business highs like him.  @revelspirits4382  Visit Revelspirits.com @MicahMcFarland

Our cofounder Tahyira Savanna has been chosen to tell her abortion story on January 22nd, 2022, the 49th anniversary of Roe vs Wade.

We chatted with Raine, Dara, and Hayley for this special conversation.

1. Your nonprofit expresses the stories of many different groups and populations. Which of the groups do you feel is the most misunderstood? 

2. Why is storytelling so important? 

3. How can people reach out to you to tell their stories? 

4. Do you think everyone has a voice? Isn’t social media a sign that too many opinions can be a bad thing?

5. How old were you when you wrote your very first story? What triggered you to create those characters?

6. Too Much Information, the anchor to TMI Project’s mission, still makes for pretty great stories.  What’s the wildest story (not Covid related directly but can be - be mindful of our audience) that you heard in the last 12 months?

7. On Jan 22nd Roe vs Wade turns 49 years old.  You all are using this moment as a call to action.  What would you like audiences to take away from this performance? What action would you like to see in real time?
