Creativity through the lens of an artist, author and entrepreneur
"Understanding what I want to create for myself; my dreams."
Aisha’s objective is to inspire, motivate and empower audiences to live and breathe in their creative energy. To take risks and be brave in their endeavors with the ability to reinvent themselves multiple times. That nothing in life is granted or given, so they must go out and carve a path for themselves. To think of success as not only obtaining a position of power or financial strength, but to also see it as bringing color to life and creating a beautiful world with their own identity.

a resilient Mongolian artist, engineer, and entrepreneur with a remarkable life journey. It all started as an orphan in Russia, but I refused to let my circumstances define me. Instead, I embarked on a thrilling adventure, traveling the world and gaining an engineering degree in Norway.
Together with co-founding a successful property management company in Portugal, Lisbon White Rose LLC, I transformed spaces into captivating havens, including a boutique hotel with uniquely designed rooms.
My insatiable curiosity and language fluency allowed me to explore over 70 countries, broadening my horizons. Settling in Miami, I dove into my artistic dreams, organizing art events and immersing myself in the blockchain and crypto world, even initiating NFThursdays.Fuelled by my trailblazing spirit, I went on to organize captivating festivals and achieved an incredible milestone in 2023 – becoming one of the first artists to send my artwork to space, engraved in gold.
I'm passionately bridging the gap between the real and digital worlds, inspiring others to embrace the transformative power of their dreams. Join me on this exhilarating journey!

Creativity through the lens of the President and Founder of Get Looped
"Creativity is about taking risks and showing up."
Chris is a seasoned sales and business veteran with a Masters in Finance and Economics from Northwestern University. His forty-year career began on the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, where he started his first business in partnership with his brother Curtis. With the introduction of electronic trading, he transitioned to Wall Street to participate in this disruptive new technology. As a Senior Sales Executive with some of the world’s most prominent financial institutions, he learned the business practices that can propel or crush a company’s potential for success. He was able to apply those lessons as a Founder and Board Member of a small business which developed into a publicly listed company on NASDAQ.
During his vast experience at the heart of the financial world, Chris weathered and witnessed the personal and societal impacts caused by the increasing speed, complexity and volatility of the industry. He observed and recognized how the extraordinary wealthy rarely shared the credit or the wealth with the employees, vendors and community that made organizational success a reality. The power of a reshaped version of Capitalism and potential of the community of socially conscious leaders inspired Chris’s mission to help redefine the hierarchical, shareholder-first corporate model and foster companies that prioritize purpose as importantly as profits.
Driven by an unshakable desire to partner with the leaders of small and medium businesses, Chris founded GET LOOPED, LLC as a platform to showcase the value and benefits of a collective prosperity for people, businesses and communities. Today, he helps businesses and CEOs incorporate prosperity in collaboration with profitability into their business practices.

Creativity through the lens of a speaker, teacher, writer and researcher
“If you really want to succeed in your life you have to Let Yourself Off the Hook!
Stop trying to solve your problems, achieve your goals and manage your life through force and struggle. This only keeps you stuck.
Instead, realise that your problems aren’t your fault. They’re simply the result of using your brain the wrong way.”
This is the message of Liam Naden, a transformative coach for entrepreneurs, business leaders and anyone seeking true success in life. His pioneering methods combine neuroscience, psychology, and practical strategies to help ambitious success seekers unlock their potential and achieve breakthroughs, to live a deeply-balanced, purpose driven life.
Liam’s own journey has taken him from the successes of being a serial entrepreneur as owner of more than 18 businesses and multi-millionaire - to losing everything and becoming homeless in his mid 40s. It was only as he rebuilt his life and wealth in a much more satisfying way that he realised the missing link to true success: the correct functioning of the human brain.
He is now the host of the Let Yourself Off the Hook podcast, a best-selling author and creator of the Four Part Brain Model and Brain Rebalancing - a process which gets the four parts of the brain working they way they should - and bringing you the success you should have.
Through his coaching programs and guest appearances he now teaches individuals from around the world to understand that there’s a more natural way to solve problems in all areas of life. It aligns with the brain’s ability to find creative solutions to challenges rather than attempting to fight against them. When you adopt
this mindset, you achieve true and lasting success much more quickly and without the limitations of struggle and stress.
As Liam will show you, “True success only happens when you give up the struggle and Let Yourself Off the Hook!”

Creativity through the lens of a mompreneure, Advocate for Dress for Success and Mrs. Queen of the World
"When I see real beauty and the way she shines, that's creativity"
Faith, determination, and a heartfelt commitment to empowering others are the cornerstones of Jennifer Lloyd’s remarkable journey. Jennifer is a passionate advocate for emphasizing the beauty of being a leader, a mother, a wife, and a businesswoman.
Jennifer’s remarkable journey from a challenging childhood in Korea to becoming an international pageant sensation began with the defining milestone of earning the title of Mrs. Washington America in 2005 and securing a notable 2nd runner-up position at the national level. Her pageant journey continued in 2021 where she secured a Top 6 spot representing Korea at Mrs. World, where she returned in 2023 and placed among the top ranks, winning multiple special awards. In 2024, she graced the international stage once more representing Korea to compete, and triumphantly win, the coveted title of Mrs. Queen of the World.
Her exemplary contributions to mentoring and nurturing the dreams of young women, especially in the pageant industry, have garnered her prestigious awards such as “Best Pageant Parent” at the “Global Beauty Awards” in both 2018 and 2019. In a touching tribute, the TGBA officially renamed this accolade as “The Lloyd Best Parent Award” in her honor. Further recognition follows her, with awards for “Best Stylist” in 2023, “Brand Ambassador” in 2022, and “Best Production” in 2021.
Professionally, Jennifer co-owns Lloyd Enterprises INC. alongside her husband, overseeing land developments and commercial investments. She served as an elected School Board Director for several years, with responsibilities including the oversight of thousands of children and implementing the creation of vital policies. She currently directs the Smize Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, where she raises funds for worthy causes such as funding school lunch programs, along with many other partnerships and philanthropy work.
Jennifer’s journey in the modeling world began at the age of 16 with the Elite Modeling Agency in Tokyo, Japan, where she embarked on a global modeling odyssey that continued even during pregnancy. Her modeling portfolio boasts a wide spectrum, encompassing corporate endorsements, athletic gear campaigns, collaborations with renowned retailers such as Nordstrom and Macy’s, and partnerships with high-profile names like JLO and Victoria’s Secret. She has graced the runways of illustrious events like Miami Swim Week and Paris Fashion Week and secured features in prestigious publications including Marie Claire, Elle Magazine, and Harper’s Bazaar. Her work with international couture designers like Leo Almodal and MANISH showcases her belief that age should never limit one’s modeling career.
In 2021, Jennifer embarked on a new chapter with the launch of her artistry business, Jennifer E. Lloyd Artistry. Specializing in high-end portraits, she has swiftly become one of the foremost photographers in the Pacific Northwest for beauty and pageant portraits.
Jennifer’s life, both personally and professionally, is anchored in her unwavering faith in God. This faith is not merely a guiding force but an intrinsic part of her identity, business, and family. As a devoted wife and mother to six children, Jennifer is living proof that a woman can balance her aspirations, nurture her family, and thrive within a supportive community.

Creativity through the lens of a screen writer, Emmy nominated producer and podcaster
"Creativity is just creating something that wasn't there."
Adam “Tex” Davis graduated from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts in 1993. A scant three years later he'd achieved great success -- as the night manager of Shaun’s Bagels in Manhattan. But soon after, "Tex" sold his first screenplay, Sunburned, to Miramax and his second screenplay Just Friends to New Line Cinema. Just Friends went on to become a cult, rom-com classic starring Ryan Reynolds and Anna Farris. Other produced credits soon followed including Spring Break Lawyer, a made-for-cable comedy for MTV; and Gardener of Eden, a dark indie-comedy produced by Leonardo Dicaprio's Appian Way and directed by Entourage's Kevin Connolly.
For nearly 20 years, Adam has written, rewritten, or punched-up over 25 feature film scripts for every major studio in Hollywood... and Bachelor Party 2. In addition, Adam has sold original comedy television series to the WB Network, CBS, and Comedy Central.
Adam served as Co-Executive Producer and Head Writer for the Emmy nominated, genre-defining, global hit series Brain Games, for the National Geographic Channel. The success of Brain Games led Adam to co-form Atomic Entertainment, a full-service film & TV production company, for which Adam oversees creative content. Along with long-time friend, fellow NYU graduate, and collaborator Jerry Kolber, Atomic created the darkly-comic docu-series, The Internet Ruined My Life (SyFy) and Brainchild, a high-concept, kids' science/variety show, co-produced by Pharrell Williams for Netflix. Adam has also produced/ directed branded projects for Google, GE, IBM, Drone Racing League, Top Golf, Headspace & Conde Nast.
With dozens of original projects airing or in the works, including What’s Your Problem? and Making Magic -- Atomic continues its quest for global dominance.
In his spare time, Adam continues to write original screenplays and create series ideas. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife, daughter, dog, cat, and fish.https://www.linkedin.com/company/atomic-entertainment-group/
