Guest Bio: Marilyn Jones a Chicago Native is the Founder and Owner of B Fragranced the online destination of beautifully crafted Fragrances & Colognes for both, modern women and men. Marilyn owns 100% of the company and proud to be WBE certified! Marilyn’s number eleven of twelve children born to a devoted Mother and Father. Unfortunately, her time with her Mother was cut short at the young age of five when Marilyn’s mom lost her battle to Breast Cancer. Marilyn’s older siblings would share loving memories of their mom, which at times left Marilyn feeling empty because she didn’t share those same memories. However, what Marilyn did have that never left her was her mother’s scent. This birthed a passion and a zeal to create Fragrances as unique as the individual who wears it! Marilyn grew up with a love for perfumes that grew stronger in later years.  “Our New flagship fragrance Embellish doesn’t smell like my Mother once did, but the blueprint of the business certainly embodies her”. Marilyn realized the imminent need of consumers wanting to celebrate who they are and Identifying a Brand that enabled Self-Empowerment and Confidence was extremely important. With that said, [ME]™ became the new lifestyle! B Fragranced branded the creative process of making what "you" wear the pinnacle of a two-letter word characterized as ME. Empower who you are, Be Courageous, Be Beautiful more importantly B Fragranced. Leave your Memory Mark. Marilyn Jones is certainly leaving her Mark in the beauty industry as the trailblazing Queen of scents. As seen in Essence, Woe, Juicy, Sheen Magazine, Delux, CEOMOM.

We will be discussing her career path, her ideas of success and the tips & motivators she used along the way. Guest bio: Zag - has been in the entertainment industry for over two decades in both music and television.  She wrote her first book of poetry in 2nd grade as a way to release the things she couldn't say.  This led quickly to songwriting and subsequently demos.  While she realized she didn't want to be a performing artist her desire to have some part in entertainment never wanted.  With a memory for movies and music and an uncanny ability to recognize subtleties such as a common movement an actor might make to a random key change in the middle of a song often missed , Zag's attention to detail is second to none.  Now, understanding her passion as her purpose she started Talent You Should Know Podcast to showcase talent in the forefront and behind the scenes.  With candid reviews, in depth interviews all woven in like a tight melody - she will introduce you not only to talent you should know but, talent you'll learn to love just the same.
