Have you seen these problematic trends on socials? Today, I'm with Amandina Altomare, founder of Media A La Carte and Studio A La Carte. Amandina shares her journey from studying musical theater and marketing and wanting to be an actress, working in PR with brands like Christian Siriano to starting two businesses.

We also got Media A La Carte's team to submit spicy memes so Amandina can play Smosh Pit's "Who Meme'd It."

Memes aside, Amandina and I go deep and discuss messaging and unrealistic promises that are prevalent on social media. We share the dangers of falling into get-rich-quick scams and the importance of transparency about the hard work it takes to build a successful business.
