DATE: October 7, 2025 SHOW: Prelude to Positivity Producer: Tommy Geraci HOST: Tommy Geraci GUESTS: Chris Phillips and Elijah Olachea from the film Bleed Like Me "After a fatally botched robbery, would-be indie filmmakers - and long-standing gay frenemies - Jesse and Butch hole up at a house in the SoCal desert to figure out their next move." I had the pleasure of seeing "Bleed Like Me" at a film festival in Los Angeles. After the film, I had to ask for an interview and Director/Writer Chris Phillips and Actor Elijah Olachea agreed to join me for a chat about "Bleed Like Me" for a talk about filmmaking, Indie film, acting, writing, directing, and a lot more. I was truly impressed with this film and highly recommend it to everyone! Go see it when you can, support, share, like, follow. Be sure to check it out and look for Bleed Like Me in festivals, plus when it becomes available to stream. In the meantime, follow all involved, including Billy Walker, who couldn't be with us.

As a visionary artist with an avant-garde edge, FIREFLY crafts music that transcends borders—an empowering fusion of cultures, genres, and languages. Her sound combines the infectious energy of global pop with profound emotional depth, creating anthems for healing, resilience, and self-love. Inspired by icons like Sia, Shakira, and Rihanna, her songs uplift, energize, and connect on a soulful, personal level, offering listeners a chance to shine as their brightest selves. Growing up feeling alone and misunderstood, Farah turned to music and creativity as her lifeline, vowing to one day create spaces of healing and connection for others. Though she initially pursued a career in medicine, a pivotal realization during a medical school interview redirected her life’s course. She left behind the conventional path to follow her dreams of healing through music, only to face grueling challenges in the entertainment industry, from self-doubt and anxiety to societal pressures that amplified insecurities. At her lowest, Farah chose transformation. She dove into mindset reprogramming, paradigm-shifting practices, and holistic healing, reclaiming her power and falling in love with her life. This personal evolution became the foundation of her final rebrand, FIREFLY—a persona and mission centered on empowerment, healing, and igniting light in others. As an artist, FIREFLY combines bold, unapologetic style with heartfelt vulnerability, creating high-vibe music that celebrates self-expression, movement, and joy. Her music has become a global anthem for empowerment, resilience, and self-love, resonating deeply with young audiences seeking positivity and authenticity. Beyond music, FIREFLY leads workshops, keynote talks, yoga, and meditation sessions, sharing practical tools for mental wellness and personal growth.
