We needed a moment of silence………..family we made it!

Season finale of Business 2 Beats Season 1, Creativity 2 Currency ends with episode #7, “Wine and Delights!” In this episode we sit down with lawyer and lifestyle influencer Sany Ngyuen, and Michelin Star Sommelier Derrick Westbrook to discuss the food and beverage industry.

Sany and Derrick share their stories on how they both started off in non profit work and then made switches into Law and Wine. They both share their early memories of food revolving around family, and how their childhood guided them to careers and entrepreneurial endeavors with food and beverage. From family Sunday Dinners, to serving some of the best wine the world can offer, and influencing followers from all walks of life on some of the tastiest restaurants and food products one day at a time.

Throughout this episode ZVG, Sany and Derrick also sit and touch on the mindset of being a creative hustler, entrepreneur and influencer. The importance of trying as hard as YOU can in the moment, studying from the people you envision yourself being like, and finding your voice to sell yourself and brand.

To conclude the season, Zander Van Gogh unveiled some new tracks from Atlanta by TrackStar and Jon Antonio out of San Francisco. Also to close out the season we had a world premiere of the “Asian Love Mix by DJ Maryah Ananda (@maryahananda). This season finale is SPECIAL!

Artist Spotlights

Sany Nguyen

A west coaster at heart, this guest is originally from San Diego California. She’s a relentless worker, helper, and most importantly member of any community she is in.

By day, she is a lawyer working in immigration law, but by night she is one of the premier lifestyle bloggers/influencers in the city of Chicago. Her brand Sany Delights is one of the go-to pages on instagram to check out dope new restaurants, entertainment venues and tips on how to stay fit.

When we met her, we were pleasantly caught off guard by her ability to be so selfless and her relentless drive to give over 300% at everything she takes on.

She’s an inspiration to many in her journey to be the best version of herself, but more importantly her hunger to crush her goals. Business 2 Beats family, we are elated to introduce you all to Sany Nguyen.
