We had the good fortune of connecting with CARISSA B. and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi CARISSA, what is the most important factor behind your success?
One thing that is the most important factor on the journey that I am on is my relationship with God.  I have been in the Gospel industry for over 20 plus years and totally rely on my relationship with God. The key is faith in God. everything that has been put into my life is been granted back to the God I serve.  He is always there to put you on the right path. I am always asking for guidance and direction on the many steps I have taken.   Throughout my years in the Gospel industry people have changed but the one thing that has never changed and been consistent is God being very fluent in my life.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I am currently a Digital Radio/TV Network Owner. I have been blessed to be working with some amazing clients. In 2018, I was privileged to own 5 digital Internet Radio Stations. After a year of running them, I was given the option of becoming a Radio Network Owner with over 20 radio stations. TCB Entertainment Network was formed within the network I was able to 5 TV stations as well. By the end of 2018, we were successfully running 6 radio /podcast shows, 20 radio stations, and 5 TV stations. on the side, I was also a branding consultant and did a little radio servicing for independent artists. As time went on I was able to establish an online award show called; “Mary Lou We Appreciate You” Awards. This particular platform honored individuals through the acts of award presentations, gift cards, monetary and more. The award show was in honor of my late grandmother and all that she did for others. During the last 7 years, I have been able to create a Multi. Award Winning TV Show named “Life Talk TV Show” as well as Mult. Award Winning “Life Talk Podcast/Radio Show”. Within 7 Years with my faith as the center of everything. one of our radio stations was honored the able to be in the running for stellar consideration for Throne Connection radio station of the Year. there are so many things that we have the opportunity to create. It has not been easy but with my Faith and my husband/children, I have also had the privilege to work on the Stellar Awards red Carpet in 2022.it has been a wonderful journey. There is the good, the bad, and the ugly and I have learned that whatever you do, do it in the Spirit of Excellence. what is so unique about our business is that our whole family is involved in the business. I have had the most wonderful time working side by side with my husband along with our five children. It takes a lot of work and sacrifice. Because of our hard work, two of my children are the youngest people who work in the media.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I would have to say my favorite places vary depending on the company that I am entertaining. but over I would suggest my favorite location which is in Franklin TN. There is so much to do from shopping, eating and sightseeing. I would check out Conners Restaurant, I would go see the Franklin Museum as well. I would also tell them to visit Nashville and Knoxville area as well.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Yes, I love to give all honor to my Savior. Also my husband Pastor Thomas B. of over 21 years. My children have been such a great support for everything I do. But more than anything this is dedicated to every person that feels like they have been overlooked. This is your time.
