for women.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
That was a gala. I host it last night.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
She's been in that position for ten years, so they
were really celebrating her yesterday for having ten years there.
But the mis Foundation does a lot of great work
as she does as far as supporting philanthropic groups. It's
been around for fifty years, and so some of the
organizations that have gotten grants and have gotten support from
the Myths Foundation, they were honored last night as well.
But just the things that they do for women, for
(02:36):
reproductive justice, for women's rights, women are very underfunded, not
only in the realm of and I know I talk
about this all the time when it comes to VC
funding that's her capital funding, but also when it comes
to philanthropy and especially black women, and so the work
that they do with the Myths Foundation is amazing, and
especially right now when a lot of our reproductive rights
(02:56):
are being rolled back and taken away from us.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
So that was a powerful night. But thank you to
Teresa C.

and she's also saying that she might be considering some
more US dates and she did say she's headed to

say on way Up Nicki Minaj, so.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
That the entire US leg of her Pink Friday to
Gag City World tour, that is right, thirty six shows
consecutively sold out. She is the only female rapper in
history to do it, and it's the highest grossing tour
by a female rapper in history. And she has more
shows coming up overseas. Okay, good, yeah, and listen, the

by the way, she kicked off her tour. She was
in Minneapolis at the Target Center and it was a
sold out show as well. She got I don't know
how many dates it is altogether, but it seems like
she's selling out in all of the venues that she's in.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
They're thirteen hundred dollars and they sold out, like immediately
in one day. So shout out to her for that.
Everybody kept saying she could do a boot line because
she loved them boots and the Mary J. Blige dance.
So there you have it. People were actually thirteen hundred dollars.
I mean, it is a lot of money, but people
go buy Jessepe's.
Speaker 9 (07:11):

Now she got to do a limited edition when and

Speaker 4 (07:44):
Consider this a personal reminder to prioritize your health always.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Definitely a good reminder to do that.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
And Carti b said she is not going to have
a new album in twenty twenty four. Why well, she said, exactly.
I tell myself this all the time. I hate that
I fought back can start interacting again and it bites
me in the anyway. No album this year, I don't care.
I'm relaxing this year, dropping these features. I already committed
to and traveling and enjoying my summer and people. Somebody
(08:10):
told her it's time to pull back from social media platforms.
Her engagement with fans is unappreciated. Cardi doesn't have to
interact with them, she chooses to, but her transparency backfires,
so she's just saying that she just needs to fall back.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
And that's a real thing.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Though the album was done, I mean I know she's
been working on it, and I know she had said
she has like one hundred songs. Sometimes when you're a
perfectionist too, it's hard to figure out.
Speaker 9 (08:36):
Yeah, but you got to take the moment. It's never
the right moment. Yeah, but you can't wait.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
She knows more than anybody. I mean, she has you
know how many years has been five to six Listen.
People are looking forward to it. So hopefully it's going
to come soon, but it's going to be her time
when she decides that. All right, Well that is your

Foundation yesterday. This was in Williamsburg in Brooklyn at the
Whalen And so they're honoring women, girls and gender expansive
people who galvanized communities and drive chains. So the theme
this year was seating solidarity and sisterhood. So it's a
(10:15):
time of cultural division. It's a call for unity and
also a time to think about our interconnectedness. Now what
I love about the MS Foundation gala I went last
year for the first time. That was the event where
Megan Marko. Remember they were saying there was like a
high speed paparazzi chase.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
I remember that.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
Yeah, So that's the gala that she was at that
she was honored at last year. So this year they
moved it to Brooklyn for the first time in Williamsburg.
But it does feel like you walk into the room,
there's like a cocktail mixer and people just you never
you don't even know them, they just start talking to you.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
I met a woman.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
It's a great networking event, but it also feels like
you're there for the same common purpose of being united
and seeing how can we.

Why is he not?
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Ish?
Speaker 10 (12:18):
So he does nothing for our kid. He doesn't even
mess with our kid at all, And for some reason,
I still have these feelings for him, and I hate
myself for it.

You know why?
Speaker 10 (12:28):
Though?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
That sex is amazing? Oh my god, that's what it is.

Speaker 10 (12:35):
But I still have amazing sex and I don't know
why I'm still holding on to him.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
But similarly, not taking care of the kid would make
it be like yeah, right, she knows what's wrong.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
But that's that's the thing, that's the that's.
Speaker 9 (12:47):
She knows what's wrong, but but it's hateful, but it's

Speaker 10 (13:04):
He had a little family situation and I guess I
interjected the family messed that up?

And then I let him go, and then he went
and created his family, and then he came back and
then we created my baby and then he went back

one rule for folks following me on social media, don't
send me in any inappropriate videos. I'm not going to
call you out. However, you know who you are. Second,
I didn't know who CP. Selena Powell was until everyone
(18:05):
started sending me her a YouTube information. It's very interesting
that some men will lose everything thinking that the apple
is good, but it's a forbidden choice.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Do better.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
The deceiver uses old tricks to attack and destroy Clay
and Alexander. You know, Jesus will allow things to occur.
He's still trying to get your attention. Please surrender to
him and closing. I pray that everyone reading this gives
the same attention to other things that matter, like helping
support your local food banks.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
I didn't understand nothing she said. Does she support his movement?
Speaker 4 (18:30):
She put a vomiting emoji, so I don't think so.
And she talked about men losing everything, so I don't
think so. So it doesn't feel like that was a
supportive Hey good pick all right. Three men were shot
on the set a Little Baby's video shoot in Atlanta.
He was doing this video in northwest Atlanta and it
was captured on Little Baby was captured on video by
(18:50):
a local taco store. Multiple witnesses say he was in
the area, but the police are saying that three men
were shot, all of them fortunately are expected to survive.
We'd find a twenty seven year old man who had
been chatting the back of twenty four year old man
with a gunshot wound to the arm, and a twenty
three year old man with a gunshot wound to the neck.
But they did say that he was safe and they
(19:12):
were not involved.
Speaker 5 (19:13):
He and his production team.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
So I know there was a story shooting at Little
Baby's video shoot, but he was not involved.
Speaker 5 (19:18):
He is safe.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Okay, and that is your ut when we come back,
we have under the radar. These are the stories that
are not necessarily in the headlines. They are flying under
the radar, but we do think you need to know
about it. Getting a manicure could now take you ten
minutes and cush you eight dollars will tell you how
it's way up.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
The news news. This in the news that relates to you.
These stories are flying under the radar.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
All right, it's way up. I'm anngela yee manos here none.
It's time for under the radar. And I've been looking
at these nails like clockwork. It's a robot that actually
does your nails. Target was offering the world's first robot
manicure a couple of years ago, where basically it's eight
dollars and they paint your nails under ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
See that's the thing. Robot's gonna be doing everything in
a few seconds.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
But I don't know if they can do SMS.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
I use the powdered dip, so I don't know that
a robot can do that.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
What is that?
Speaker 4 (20:10):
It's like instead of a jail, because you know they
always tell you not to use the UV light on
your hands because it could be dangerous. So you dip
your nails in this powder and then they put like
a gel over it, and then yeah, that's what I do.
So it's like a powder dip and you don't need
any UV light but anyway, yes, and so you can
lease these robots and that way you can get your
(20:31):
nails done just like that, all right, And more than
half of Black women age fifteen to forty nine live
with little to no access to abortion. A new report
found that fifty seven percent of all Black women of
reproductive age live in states with abortion bands or impending restrictions.
They said, a lot of women, a lot of Black
women are affected by abortion restrictions across the country, and
(20:54):
according to Jocelyn Frye, she said in an interview that
black women in those states are a werewhelmingly concerned about
their physical and economic security. They said that two point
seven million of the Black women of reprotective ages living
in such states are already economically insecure, and one point
four million of them work in service jobs, which are
less likely to provide resources like paid sick days, flexible scheduling,
(21:17):
and more so, in addition to abortion bands, they're concerned
about things like economic opportunity, the cost of living, racial justice.
Speaker 5 (21:24):
All of those are directly tied to that. So if
you have.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Money, it's very easy for you to say, Okay, I'm
going to travel someplace else to get this procedure done.
But when you don't, it means you have to take
off from work, you have to pay to travel, somebody
has to come with you.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
It's a lot more you might done.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
You might not be able to get all that done,
and so for those reasons, it definitely adversely affects a
certain community of place. Now, the a lot of Southern
states make up a majority of the states with abortion restrictions,
and most of the nation's black population is concentrated in
the South, so you can see how that goes. All right, Well,
that is, you're under the rate. And when we come back,
(22:01):
you know, we got the way it mixed. At the
top of the hour, plus, we have trademark attorney Rosina
up here. She was actually in town for Mary J.
Blige's Strength of a Woman festival.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Did she get the boots?
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I don't know if she got the boots, I don't
know any I want to see who got them. If
you did get them. Please tag those Mary J. Blige
to Seppi boots. I want to see them and repost
them on my Instagram because they do look fire if
anybody had a chance to get their hands on when
they sold out in one day thirteen hundred dollars. But
Rosin up Piars is going to help you learn all
about trademarks and why it's important to make sure when
(22:31):
you have a brand, you get everything trademarked, all the
different types of trademarks there are with the foundation of
what you need to do, because you would hate to
have this brand and then have somebody do a season
desist on you. All right, we'll talk about it. It's
a wealth Wednesday. It's the way it mix at the
top of the hour.

Speaker 5 (23:08):
We don't want to. I don't have nothing bad to say, y'all.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Wow, Well, let's get into this Tom Brady roase because
he regrets the Netflix roast that he did.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
Here is what he had to say.
Speaker 12 (23:22):
I loved when the jokes were about me. I didn't
like the way that affected my kids. I wouldn't do
that again because of the way that affected actually the
people that I care about the most in the world.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Damn. Who says something about.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
His kids though, well, you know there are a lot
of jokes about his kids. Here's one Kevin Hart joke.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Jazelle gave you an ultimatum.
Speaker 5 (23:42):
Gazelle said you retire or were done.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
Let me tell you something.
Speaker 9 (23:46):
When you got a chance to go eight and nine
and all it will calls you is your wife and
your kids.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
You gotta do what the you gotta do. Who writes
these jokes?
Speaker 5 (23:57):
The comedians, they also have writers behind the scenes.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Don't have no limit limit, I mean.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Maybe a self imposed limit that you have to figure out.
What's the Literally say anything and it can be very
mean and hurtful.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Yeah, like you would hate for somebody to be talking
about like your family, your kids.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
How some won't get you tattooed. He has everybody else.
Speaker 11 (24:23):
Crazy.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
You couldn't five tattoos of his mom. We do have
a hustle hard tattoos.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
That's just like having having my name kind of.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Yeah, there's a lot of hustle hards, though it's mouth
could be anyone.
Speaker 13 (24:44):
All right.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
Well, let's also talk about something amazing that I had
the opportunity to do, and that was to get Lynna
Whitfield on lip service. You know she is on the
shy right now. And of course you know her from
a thin line between.
Speaker 5 (24:57):
Love and hate.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
We know her from everything green Leaf, I mean amazing. Well,
here's what she had to say, because she doesn't often
talk about like what her life was like. She's been
married twice, and so she talked to us about her
first marriage.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
She was really young.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
The first time I got married, it was to someone
twenty two years older than I was. He was my
acting teacher.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
I was in Howard University.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
My mother found out that I was spending more time
at his house than I spent in my dormitory. And
she called his house one morning, like at six am
in the morning, and I answered, I was like.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
And she was so upset. I think she had a
detective to.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Know where I was or something like that.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Man back when it was phones.
Speaker 5 (25:46):
And house Yeah, yeah, only that phone a phone ring.
You pick it up.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
Sometimes it's mounted on the wall, so you can't go
too far unless you got a super long cord, all right.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
Now.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
In addition to that, we were talking about who could
she be dating now, because I know there's a lot
of guys and I saw him the comments that was like,
I would never ever break up with Lynn Whitfield. And
here's what you have to say about perhaps dating a
younger man, because that seems to be all the rage.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Would you ever get married again?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I don't feel a need to, but you never know.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
I kind of feel like I could see you with
like a handsome thirty five year old.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
You know, I'm not really interested in pushing put it
out there in the universe.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Do I see.
Speaker 5 (26:30):
Somebody taking you on trips? Flying private?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Are you all listening hello?
Speaker 4 (26:37):
She'd be on our Instagram so sliding MDMs. But it's
an amazing interview that we had a chance to sit
down with her. She gave us a lot of wisdom
and it was very thoughtful and I love the fact
that she wanted to do lip service lush.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
Yeah, so really dope.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
Make sure y'all check her out on the shy and
when we come back, we have asked yee, eight hundred
two nine two fifty one fifty is a number any
questions you have? Of course, here to help you out.
Now here's a classic. They will never get sick of
listening to. It's Lloyd and Lil Wayne with you.
Speaker 6 (27:04):
It's way Up or whether it's relationship or career advice.
Angela's dropping facts.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
As what's up his way up?
Speaker 4 (27:13):
But Angela yee, I'm Angela ye, and Maino's in the
building and it's time to ask yee. Okay, we have
Chelsea on the line.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (27:20):
Chelsea?
Speaker 13 (27:21):
Hi, Angea, I love you in the show, thank.
Speaker 5 (27:25):
You, love you too. What's your question for us?
Speaker 3 (27:27):
For me?
Speaker 5 (27:27):
A'm mano Okay.
Speaker 13 (27:28):
Well, the problem is that I'm going to Europe for
the first time with my boyfriend.
Speaker 11 (27:32):
He's taking me degrees.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
I know that's right.
Speaker 13 (27:35):
I'm so excited and I think he's gonna propose. But
he hasn't asked me about rings. My family really hasn't
mentioned anything to me. I kind of am getting my
hopes up and I feel like this would be the
perfect opportunity. But if he does it, I don't know
if we should keep going.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Wow, that's crazy. Why you think he's going to propose.
Speaker 13 (27:57):
We've already been together for two years and we've talked
about the future and everything. So I feel like he's
at my family. I've met his family. We all love
each other and get along. I feel like it's time.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
But I do want to say clearly, if he plans
to propose, it's a secret. It's a surprise, right, and
you should let that surprise happen the way that it's
supposed to and not have any expectations because I think
if you go on this trip with expectations, there's a
chance that it may not happen. I would rather you
go and enjoy this beautiful trip that y'all have planned together,
(28:30):
and if it should happen, it's the icing on top
of the key.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Because she's saying that she's gonna cut him off if
he don't propose.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
Well, the thing is you should maybe take matters in
your own hands and propose to him.
Speaker 5 (28:41):
Oh man, don't listen to that, Jelsea.
Speaker 8 (28:43):
I want to do that.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
No one reason, and you guys have discussed it. You
know eventually it's going to happen. Whether or not it
happens on this trip, you know, we have no idea,
but I do think you should.
Speaker 13 (28:56):
Everyone keeps telling me, oh, he must be proposing.
Speaker 5 (28:59):
Oh, you guys are going on bitch trip.
Speaker 13 (29:00):
Of course he's gonna propose. But I feel like at
first I was thinking no, no, but now that everyone
else is saying.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
It, listen, the last thing you want to do in
any relationship is worried about what everybody.
Speaker 9 (29:09):
Else is saying, right, because then you're gonna you're gonna
set yourself up.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Yeah, don't get out.
Speaker 9 (29:13):
There, and then you're gonna be looking for it, and
then you're gonna be disappointed, and then you're gonna be angry,
and then you're gonna get back and then he gonna
and you're gonna cut them off.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
And then Mano's gonna slide in your DMS and a
moment of weakness.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
And you're gonna be with it.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
Let me see them, and then and then.
Speaker 9 (29:29):
And then I'm gonna mess up your whole I'm gonna
mess up your engagement, your marriage and everything.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
Right now, listen, trust me, Chelsea, Go enjoy the trip.
Speaker 13 (29:38):
That's it okay, thank you both, Thank you so much.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
All right, no problem, have fun, bring us back some chanel.
All right, that part all right? Well that was ask
you eight hundred two nine fifty one fifty in case
you couldn't get through. And when we come back, it
is a Wealth Wednesday and we have attorney trademark attorney
Rosen appears joining us.
Speaker 5 (29:58):
It's way up.
Speaker 9 (30:00):
Wealthy and I don't mind sharing my wealth dog.
Speaker 6 (30:03):
Getting you straight financially, mentally and physically. This is Wealth
Wednesday on way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (30:09):
It's way up with Angela Yee on a Wealth Wednesday.
And I have a special guest. We have trademark and
business attorney Rosina J. Pears Esquire.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
Thank you so much for having me.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
When we talk about trademarking, this is something that is
really important as far as protecting your brand, but some
people don't understand like how to go about it, why
it's necessarily, what the steps are to take it. So
talk about why it's so important to trademark when you
have your own brand.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
You know, Angela I always likes people, will you build
a house on land you don't own?
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Everyone always says no, But then I say, well, in turn,
why do we build these businesses and the brands if
we don't own them. And it's really the same equivalent
because so often we see people who are building a
nice business also have it torn down by a cease
and desist letter because they did not do the proper steps,
and not only just protecting it so no one else
(31:01):
can tear it down, but also protecting it from copycutters
and counterfeitters and people who can benefit because they could
cause confusion. It could be the logo too, right, You
trademark a logo and somebody might have a logo similar
to yours, or a name that's similar to yours, or
sometimes the exact same name.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
We see this just happen with Pharrell versus Pink. He
has a company I guess it's called p do I
in c and then she felt there would be some confusion.
So I don't know how that's gonna go, because sometimes
I can't tell what's gonna work and what's not gonna work.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Yeah, So the good thing about trademark law is it's
not about what's the same, but what can be being
confusionally similar.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
It's a wealth Wednesday, and I have trademark attorney Rosina
appears here with me. You know, just give us an
example where somebody had a brand and it really like
caused their brand to go away because of a cease
and desist or having to like start all over again.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
There's a lot, you know, even Caesar from Black Ink, right,
he has his issues where he tried to file his
trademark himself. He started his tattooing business, and sometimes a
lot of people don't understand that there's forty five different
classes under trademark right. So yeah, so Caesar when he
filed his application, he filed it for tattooing services, and
(32:12):
so when he had his dog fighting issue and was
fired from the show, he couldn't understand that because he.
Speaker 8 (32:17):
Thought he owned the name black Ink.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Well, when he did his deal, Viacom actually filed the
trademark wow to register it for entertainment services. So that's
when it becomes very important that everybody does research before
they filed brands and adopt brands.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
That's why you need a lawyer.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, this is a lot.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
It is, And imagine a lot of times when you
start a business, sometimes you may not know how well
it's gonna do. You don't and if you haven't taken
those proper precauestions, like you said, you're not going to
build a house on lands you don't own. So you
have to make sure that as part of starting your
business you are protecting your brand.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
And also just doing the research first, right, and before
you adopt your brand name, you definitely want to make
sure that you have done a clearance search for the
words so that you don't get into issues where someone
is now suing you because they're saying your brand is
confusingly similar. And sometimes when people will go to the
USPTO dot UV and they'll just search the name and
nothing comes back, and they'll be like, oh, I'm good, right,
(33:15):
but no, but then if it calls likely so somebody
you could go search Starbucks and say I'm gonna open up.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
A coffee company because star becks right.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
And Starbucks is definitely gonna come and say no, this
can cause confusion and shut the brand down, right. So
it's very important that you understand the nuances because you know,
anyone can file the trademark application, but it's about is
it gonna have protection? And then once you get registration,
is it gonna be able to be strong enough to
enforce your rights in case you having a frencher.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
And you've worked with some amazing people too, like Angela Simmons,
twist us arrogates. That's good that people are knowing that
I need a professional bro Zena Herece is here. She's
a trademark attorney. We are talking about protecting your brand
and everything you need to know as a business owner.
We have more with her when we come back. It's
way up.
Speaker 9 (34:03):
I had a dream of wealthy and I don't mind
sharing my wealth dog.
Speaker 6 (34:07):
Getting you straight financially, mentally and physically. This is Wealth
Wednesday on Way Up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 5 (34:13):
What's up? Way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
I'm Angela Yee and today for Wealth Wednesday, we are
joined by trademark attorney Rosina Pearce. What made you to
say I want to be a trademark and business attorney.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
So I am from the West Side of Chicago, and
I knew I wanted to be an attorney since I
was five years old. Been exposed to the criminal justice system.
You know, my father went to prison, my brothers were
in prison all at one time, and so I just
wanted to do something more impactful, more different. I finished
law school and not having any job offers. I thought
(34:45):
I was gonna work at a big corporation or a
big law firm. Had no job offers. And it was
a professor who told me. He said, you know, I said,
I don't have any jobs. You know, I got three
kids at home. You know, passed the bart first time.
What am I gonna do?
Speaker 5 (34:59):
Okay, yeah, that is not easy, but we're just talking
about that.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Nah, especially with three kids. Yeah, and she was an
infant at the time, so I was having a lot
of them amazing. But so then I fell into a
depression because I was even on my law review at
school and you know, it was only two black people
on there, Me and the other guy, and everybody else
that didn't look like us all had job offers.
Speaker 10 (35:23):
You know.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
It's like when you're finishing law school, it's like, you know,
being drafted to the pros or whatever. And talking to
this professor after passing the bar, he is the one
who planned the seat, and he said, you know, what
do you want to do. I said, I want to
do intellectual property. And he said, well, you will go
a long way serving and underserved. And I said, well,
I don't want to do criminal law because I just
thought about no real quick and I was like, I
(35:44):
want to do that, and he was like, no, who
is underserved in your practice area? And I said small
business owners? And he said, you will go a long
way serving now, and I'll tell you fast forward eleven
years later, I was looking at those big corporate jobs
because I'm like, oh my god, this is how much
i can make. Never made that much money, but you know,
building my own business, have done that and sometimes in
(36:04):
a month, you know times, but also too. Now my
firm is ranked above all of those law firms that
I apply for to work at.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
Sign that out of the top fifty firms, and these
are ready the top fifty firms in the US. In
the US out over twenty eight thousand, Yes, trademark law firms.
You're in the top fifteen of those top fifty.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
I'm ranked top fifteen out of trademark lawyers in the country,
which is over thirty three thousand trademark lawyers in the country.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
Thank you, Thank you well. Listen, I want to thank
you so much Rosina J. Pierce for coming and joining us.
You know, make sure y'all check it out where can
people find.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
You so they can find me on Instagram is the
best platform for me, which is the best lawyer.
Speaker 8 (36:46):
But I understand everybody is not on.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
Instagram, so you can also find me at our website
at securethebrand dot com. And if anybody have any questions
about trademarks, they can book a fifteen minute consultation for
thirty dollars with our firm and we'll explain the trademark
process to them.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
That's right, thirty dollars to make sure that your business
doesn't get no cease and desist and that you start
things on a nice stable foundation.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Right now, We'll just say this because people call and
be like Angela said, those thirty dollars, the trademark process
is fifteen hundred's the call.
Speaker 8 (37:18):
Yes, but we'll give people say, oh, it was only
thirty and.
Speaker 4 (37:20):
That's a good way to get started, to understand what
you need to do and then understand the cost that's
involved with it too and the different levels of that.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
So I think that's important.
Speaker 4 (37:28):
Yes, absolutely, all right, Well, thank you so much again,

Speaker 5 (37:55):
What the word is the last word?
Speaker 6 (37:58):
On Way Up with Angela?
Speaker 5 (37:59):
Ye, what's up?
Speaker 4 (38:00):
But Angela gee, I'm Angela yee, my guy, manos here
no good time today.
Speaker 5 (38:04):
I did like a light roast of you.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Yeah, I mean you my feelings.
Speaker 9 (38:07):
I got to make a statement, you know, you got
to make a statement back at you.
Speaker 3 (38:12):
That's what happens. There's no ceilings to the disrespect. I see.
Speaker 5 (38:16):
Oh man, I don't know about a roast.
Speaker 4 (38:18):
But like Tom Brady was saying, some of his family
members apologize to his ex.
Speaker 3 (38:24):
So was he was he steaming while he was standing
up there?
Speaker 14 (38:26):
No?
Speaker 5 (38:27):
I think he was laughing about it.
Speaker 4 (38:28):
But I think, you know, he had to think about
his kids and the aftermath of it. And you can't,
like I think, in a roast, the worst thing you
could do is look like you're upset. You have to
at least act like you're yeah, you got you know
how many friendships in real.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
Life probably ended on the inside.
Speaker 4 (38:47):
And listen and Kim Kardashian was there. They had to
take the booze. They had to edit out the booze. Yeah,
so you can't even see that anymore. But anyway, thank
you again on this Wealth Wednesday to Rosina Pears for
joining us. He's a trademark attorney and she gave such
great valuable information that I myself am like I need
to use her because I don't know if I've protected

sleep and her friend, which was a bartender, was in
the next room, and one thing left to another. We

She is a trademark attorney, one of the best in
the country.

Lot of times you're studying a business and you're not
thinking about trademarking. She's going to give you all the
ins and outs and why that so necessary if you
ever want to get to that money the way that
you need to. The last thing you want is to
not handle the business at the foundation.

nine two fifty one fifty. Let us know who you

But today I want to shine a light on. Teresa C.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Younger.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
She is the president and CEO of the mis Foundation
for women.
Speaker 5 (02:13):
That was a gala. I host it last night.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
She's been in that position for ten years, so they
were really celebrating her yesterday for having ten years there.
But the mis Foundation does a lot of great work
as she does as far as supporting philanthropic groups. It's
been around for fifty years, and so some of the
organizations that have gotten grants and have gotten support from
the Myths Foundation, they were honored last night as well.
But just the things that they do for women, for
(02:36):
reproductive justice, for women's rights, women are very underfunded, not
only in the realm of and I know I talk
about this all the time when it comes to VC
funding that's her capital funding, but also when it comes
to philanthropy and especially black women, and so the work
that they do with the Myths Foundation is amazing, and
especially right now when a lot of our reproductive rights
(02:56):
are being rolled back and taken away from us.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
So that was a powerful night. But thank you to
Teresa C.
Speaker 7 (03:01):
Younger.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
When they asked me to host, it was in Brooklyn
for the first time this year, and they were like,
we got to have you as one of the hosts,
So I was excited to do that. But congratulations for
an amazing night and the amount of money that they
raise is crazy. We'll talk about it more and about
last night. But who do you guys want to shine
a light on? Eight hundred two ninety fifty one fifty
cent what's that? Who you want to shine a light on?

All right, Well that was Shina Light eight hundred and
two ninety two. Fifty one fifty is a number. And
when we come back, let's shine a light on all
of the women artists who are doing their thing. We're
going to talk about Nicki Minaj, Carti b Meg, the Stallion, Glorilla, everybody.
Speaker 5 (04:41):
It's way up this in the.
Speaker 6 (04:44):
Rooms, from industry Shade to all of gossip angelas feeling

Speaker 5 (04:51):
All right, it's way up.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Time for some et with my guy Maino right right now,
it's all about the ladies, okay, and this is exciting news.
So Nicki Mina actually posted this too, but she did
wrap up her Pink Friday to tour with record breaking success,
and she's also saying that she might be considering some
more US dates and she did say she's headed to
(05:12):
Europe in a few days.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
That's a big deal. But here's what we had to
say on way Up Nicki Minaj, so.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
That the entire US leg of her Pink Friday to
Gag City World tour, that is right, thirty six shows
consecutively sold out. She is the only female rapper in
history to do it, and it's the highest grossing tour
by a female rapper in history. And she has more
shows coming up overseas. Okay, good, yeah, and listen, the
(05:39):
women are doing it big right now because Megan the Stallion,
by the way, she kicked off her tour. She was
in Minneapolis at the Target Center and it was a
sold out show as well. She got I don't know
how many dates it is altogether, but it seems like
she's selling out in all of the venues that she's in.
So I liked that the women are when they're big
(06:00):
things right now? All right, And Serena Williams is going
to be hosting the twenty twenty four sp Awards.
Speaker 5 (06:05):
I like this. Don't you love this? You love this

I just came back from the Mitz Foundation gala and
now I'm hearing all this great news about all the women.
She's one of the greatest tennis players of all time,
ranked in the world number one in singles by the
Women's Tennis Association for three hundred and nineteen weeks, and
now she is hosting the twenty twenty four sp Awards.
That is going to be July tenth at the Adobe
Theater in La Okay.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
I just watched that movie.
Speaker 5 (06:30):
Oh you did, can't?
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It was so good? Did you cry? I didn't cry.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
The success and the d It was really really dope.
It was he had a purpose in a mission and
I like that, all right.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
And speaking of the girls, Mary day Blithe her boot
collabhich is Zeppe sold out.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
It's these boots. I think they're fire.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
They're thirteen hundred dollars and they sold out, like immediately
in one day. So shout out to her for that.
Everybody kept saying she could do a boot line because
she loved them boots and the Mary J. Blige dance.
So there you have it. People were actually thirteen hundred dollars.
I mean, it is a lot of money, but people
go buy Jessepe's.
Speaker 9 (07:11):
That's that's a decent price point, thirteen hundred. I thought
that it was going to be more than that.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Yeah, I did too, So next one, I'm sure we'll
Now she got to do a limited edition when and
just put some diamonds on it or something, some Sperosky
crystals all right, and TLC has had to postpone their
tour days after Tea Bas became sick. They said, doctors
have advised her not to perform, so anybody who was
planning to go to that she lost her voice. She
had the flu, so she can't perform this week, and
(07:41):
hopefully this is going to happen soon.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
They said, we love you and we'll see you soon.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
Consider this a personal reminder to prioritize your health always.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Definitely a good reminder to do that.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
And Carti b said she is not going to have
a new album in twenty twenty four. Why well, she said, exactly.
I tell myself this all the time. I hate that
I fought back can start interacting again and it bites
me in the anyway. No album this year, I don't care.
I'm relaxing this year, dropping these features. I already committed
to and traveling and enjoying my summer and people. Somebody
(08:10):
told her it's time to pull back from social media platforms.
Her engagement with fans is unappreciated. Cardi doesn't have to
interact with them, she chooses to, but her transparency backfires,
so she's just saying that she just needs to fall back.
Speaker 5 (08:25):
And that's a real thing.
Speaker 4 (08:26):
Though the album was done, I mean I know she's
been working on it, and I know she had said
she has like one hundred songs. Sometimes when you're a
perfectionist too, it's hard to figure out.
Speaker 9 (08:36):
Yeah, but you got to take the moment. It's never
the right moment. Yeah, but you can't wait.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
She knows more than anybody. I mean, she has you
know how many years has been five to six Listen.
People are looking forward to it. So hopefully it's going
to come soon, but it's going to be her time
when she decides that. All right, Well that is your

I hosted the Women of Vision Awards for the MISF
Foundation yesterday. This was in Williamsburg in Brooklyn at the
Whalen And so they're honoring women, girls and gender expansive
people who galvanized communities and drive chains. So the theme
this year was seating solidarity and sisterhood. So it's a
(10:15):
time of cultural division. It's a call for unity and
also a time to think about our interconnectedness. Now what
I love about the MS Foundation gala I went last
year for the first time. That was the event where
Megan Marko. Remember they were saying there was like a
high speed paparazzi chase.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
I remember that.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
Yeah, So that's the gala that she was at that
she was honored at last year. So this year they
moved it to Brooklyn for the first time in Williamsburg.
But it does feel like you walk into the room,
there's like a cocktail mixer and people just you never
you don't even know them, they just start talking to you.
Speaker 5 (10:46):
I met a woman.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
It's a great networking event, but it also feels like
you're there for the same common purpose of being united
and seeing how can we.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Help each other?
Speaker 4 (10:57):
Hostess Yes, so it was great and I stay for

Speaker 10 (12:11):
I'm still loving my baby daddy and he's not.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
What do you so?
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Why is he not?
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Ish?
Speaker 10 (12:18):
So he does nothing for our kid. He doesn't even
mess with our kid at all, And for some reason,
I still have these feelings for him, and I hate
myself for it.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
You know why?
Speaker 10 (12:28):
Though?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
That sex is amazing? Oh my god, that's what it is.
Speaker 5 (12:33):
So that is what it is.
Speaker 10 (12:35):
But I still have amazing sex and I don't know
why I'm still holding on to him.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
But similarly, not taking care of the kid would make
it be like yeah, right, she knows what's wrong.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
But that's that's the thing, that's the that's.
Speaker 9 (12:47):
She knows what's wrong, but but it's hateful, but it's
lustful at the same time she knows she's doing.
Speaker 5 (12:54):
What are you gonna do?
Speaker 3 (12:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (12:57):
I have to let it go, though.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
Do he really not do nothing for his kids? But
he'll come and knock you on though nothing.
Speaker 10 (13:04):
He had a little family situation and I guess I
interjected the family messed that up?
Speaker 3 (13:11):
So yeah, so he had a family first. It is
like the redhead.
Speaker 10 (13:15):
Yeah, well, hold on, this be fair.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
I had him first, okay.
Speaker 10 (13:19):
And then I let him go, and then he went
and created his family, and then he came back and
then we created my baby and then he went back
a why for the last?
Speaker 5 (13:30):
So that really she hates.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
You, right, and they don't hate each other.
Speaker 9 (13:35):
Y'all should be one happy family, you know, all that
hate flowing like that?
Speaker 5 (13:41):
He said, he is living it up. He gets it.

You got family in the South, we used to watch

you're saying it?
Speaker 5 (17:15):
Though, okay, all right?
Speaker 3 (17:16):
At all times? So that was Do you like that?
Speaker 9 (17:19):
Well?
Speaker 4 (17:19):
It ain't my favorite chance the rapper, but but I
like the idea of what he's trying to talk about.
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Oh, you like the idea of what he's saying right now,
it's about how he said though.
Speaker 4 (17:28):
It's family, it's community. But I get I get what

about your guy, Clave Gray Sandy from Love is Blind.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
I don't even know who that is.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
Well, supposedly he's dating Selena Powell.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Now she's unstoppable, and you.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Know she posted a video He's kissing her all over
the face and stuff like that. They were in the
bed together. Well, now his mom has put up a
post and she said happy New Day. First, my number
one rule for folks following me on social media, don't
send me in any inappropriate videos. I'm not going to
call you out. However, you know who you are. Second,
I didn't know who CP. Selena Powell was until everyone
(18:05):
started sending me her a YouTube information. It's very interesting
that some men will lose everything thinking that the apple
is good, but it's a forbidden choice.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
Do better.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
The deceiver uses old tricks to attack and destroy Clay
and Alexander. You know, Jesus will allow things to occur.
He's still trying to get your attention. Please surrender to
him and closing. I pray that everyone reading this gives
the same attention to other things that matter, like helping
support your local food banks.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
I didn't understand nothing she said. Does she support his movement?
Speaker 4 (18:30):
She put a vomiting emoji, so I don't think so.
And she talked about men losing everything, so I don't
think so. So it doesn't feel like that was a
supportive Hey good pick all right. Three men were shot
on the set a Little Baby's video shoot in Atlanta.
He was doing this video in northwest Atlanta and it
was captured on Little Baby was captured on video by
(18:50):
a local taco store. Multiple witnesses say he was in
the area, but the police are saying that three men
were shot, all of them fortunately are expected to survive.
We'd find a twenty seven year old man who had
been chatting the back of twenty four year old man
with a gunshot wound to the arm, and a twenty
three year old man with a gunshot wound to the neck.
But they did say that he was safe and they
(19:12):
were not involved.
Speaker 5 (19:13):
He and his production team.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
So I know there was a story shooting at Little
Baby's video shoot, but he was not involved.
Speaker 5 (19:18):
He is safe.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Okay, and that is your ut when we come back,
we have under the radar. These are the stories that
are not necessarily in the headlines. They are flying under
the radar, but we do think you need to know
about it. Getting a manicure could now take you ten
minutes and cush you eight dollars will tell you how
it's way up.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
The news news. This in the news that relates to you.
These stories are flying under the radar.
Speaker 4 (19:42):
All right, it's way up. I'm anngela yee manos here none.
It's time for under the radar. And I've been looking
at these nails like clockwork. It's a robot that actually
does your nails. Target was offering the world's first robot
manicure a couple of years ago, where basically it's eight
dollars and they paint your nails under ten minutes.
Speaker 3 (20:01):
See that's the thing. Robot's gonna be doing everything in
a few seconds.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
But I don't know if they can do SMS.
Speaker 4 (20:05):
I use the powdered dip, so I don't know that
a robot can do that.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
What is that?
Speaker 4 (20:10):
It's like instead of a jail, because you know they
always tell you not to use the UV light on
your hands because it could be dangerous. So you dip
your nails in this powder and then they put like
a gel over it, and then yeah, that's what I do.
So it's like a powder dip and you don't need
any UV light but anyway, yes, and so you can
lease these robots and that way you can get your
(20:31):
nails done just like that, all right, And more than
half of Black women age fifteen to forty nine live
with little to no access to abortion. A new report
found that fifty seven percent of all Black women of
reproductive age live in states with abortion bands or impending restrictions.
They said, a lot of women, a lot of Black
women are affected by abortion restrictions across the country, and
(20:54):
according to Jocelyn Frye, she said in an interview that
black women in those states are a werewhelmingly concerned about
their physical and economic security. They said that two point
seven million of the Black women of reprotective ages living
in such states are already economically insecure, and one point
four million of them work in service jobs, which are
less likely to provide resources like paid sick days, flexible scheduling,
(21:17):
and more so, in addition to abortion bands, they're concerned
about things like economic opportunity, the cost of living, racial justice.
Speaker 5 (21:24):
All of those are directly tied to that. So if
you have.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Money, it's very easy for you to say, Okay, I'm
going to travel someplace else to get this procedure done.
But when you don't, it means you have to take
off from work, you have to pay to travel, somebody
has to come with you.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
It's a lot more you might done.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
You might not be able to get all that done,
and so for those reasons, it definitely adversely affects a
certain community of place. Now, the a lot of Southern
states make up a majority of the states with abortion restrictions,
and most of the nation's black population is concentrated in
the South, so you can see how that goes. All right, Well,
that is, you're under the rate. And when we come back,
(22:01):
you know, we got the way it mixed. At the
top of the hour, plus, we have trademark attorney Rosina
up here. She was actually in town for Mary J.
Blige's Strength of a Woman festival.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Did she get the boots?
Speaker 4 (22:11):
I don't know if she got the boots, I don't
know any I want to see who got them. If
you did get them. Please tag those Mary J. Blige
to Seppi boots. I want to see them and repost
them on my Instagram because they do look fire if
anybody had a chance to get their hands on when
they sold out in one day thirteen hundred dollars. But
Rosin up Piars is going to help you learn all
about trademarks and why it's important to make sure when
(22:31):
you have a brand, you get everything trademarked, all the
different types of trademarks there are with the foundation of
what you need to do, because you would hate to
have this brand and then have somebody do a season
desist on you. All right, we'll talk about it. It's
a wealth Wednesday. It's the way it mix at the
top of the hour.

Speaker 5 (23:08):
We don't want to. I don't have nothing bad to say, y'all.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
Wow, Well, let's get into this Tom Brady roase because
he regrets the Netflix roast that he did.
Speaker 5 (23:20):
Here is what he had to say.
Speaker 12 (23:22):
I loved when the jokes were about me. I didn't
like the way that affected my kids. I wouldn't do
that again because of the way that affected actually the
people that I care about the most in the world.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Damn. Who says something about.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
His kids though, well, you know there are a lot
of jokes about his kids. Here's one Kevin Hart joke.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Jazelle gave you an ultimatum.
Speaker 5 (23:42):
Gazelle said you retire or were done.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
Let me tell you something.
Speaker 9 (23:46):
When you got a chance to go eight and nine
and all it will calls you is your wife and
your kids.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
You gotta do what the you gotta do. Who writes
these jokes?
Speaker 5 (23:57):
The comedians, they also have writers behind the scenes.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Don't have no limit limit, I mean.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Maybe a self imposed limit that you have to figure out.
What's the Literally say anything and it can be very
mean and hurtful.
Speaker 7 (24:10):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (24:11):
Yeah, like you would hate for somebody to be talking
about like your family, your kids.
Speaker 5 (24:15):
How some won't get you tattooed. He has everybody else.
Speaker 11 (24:23):
Crazy.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
You couldn't five tattoos of his mom. We do have
a hustle hard tattoos.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
That's just like having having my name kind of.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
Yeah, there's a lot of hustle hards, though it's mouth
could be anyone.
Speaker 13 (24:44):
All right.
Speaker 4 (24:44):
Well, let's also talk about something amazing that I had
the opportunity to do, and that was to get Lynna
Whitfield on lip service. You know she is on the
shy right now. And of course you know her from
a thin line between.
Speaker 5 (24:57):
Love and hate.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
We know her from everything green Leaf, I mean amazing. Well,
here's what she had to say, because she doesn't often
talk about like what her life was like. She's been
married twice, and so she talked to us about her
first marriage.
Speaker 5 (25:10):
She was really young.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
The first time I got married, it was to someone
twenty two years older than I was. He was my
acting teacher.
Speaker 3 (25:19):
I was in Howard University.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
My mother found out that I was spending more time
at his house than I spent in my dormitory. And
she called his house one morning, like at six am
in the morning, and I answered, I was like.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
And she was so upset. I think she had a
detective to.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Know where I was or something like that.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Man back when it was phones.
Speaker 5 (25:46):
And house Yeah, yeah, only that phone a phone ring.
You pick it up.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
Sometimes it's mounted on the wall, so you can't go
too far unless you got a super long cord, all right.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
Now.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
In addition to that, we were talking about who could
she be dating now, because I know there's a lot
of guys and I saw him the comments that was like,
I would never ever break up with Lynn Whitfield. And
here's what you have to say about perhaps dating a
younger man, because that seems to be all the rage.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
Would you ever get married again?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I don't feel a need to, but you never know.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
I kind of feel like I could see you with
like a handsome thirty five year old.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
You know, I'm not really interested in pushing put it
out there in the universe.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Do I see.
Speaker 5 (26:30):
Somebody taking you on trips? Flying private?
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Are you all listening hello?
Speaker 4 (26:37):
She'd be on our Instagram so sliding MDMs. But it's
an amazing interview that we had a chance to sit
down with her. She gave us a lot of wisdom
and it was very thoughtful and I love the fact
that she wanted to do lip service lush.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
Yeah, so really dope.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
Make sure y'all check her out on the shy and
when we come back, we have asked yee, eight hundred
two nine two fifty one fifty is a number any
questions you have? Of course, here to help you out.
Now here's a classic. They will never get sick of
listening to. It's Lloyd and Lil Wayne with you.
Speaker 6 (27:04):
It's way Up or whether it's relationship or career advice.
Angela's dropping facts.
Speaker 5 (27:12):
As what's up his way up?
Speaker 4 (27:13):
But Angela yee, I'm Angela ye, and Maino's in the
building and it's time to ask yee. Okay, we have
Chelsea on the line.
Speaker 3 (27:20):
What's up?
Speaker 5 (27:20):
Chelsea?
Speaker 13 (27:21):
Hi, Angea, I love you in the show, thank.
Speaker 5 (27:25):
You, love you too. What's your question for us?
Speaker 3 (27:27):
For me?
Speaker 5 (27:27):
A'm mano Okay.
Speaker 13 (27:28):
Well, the problem is that I'm going to Europe for
the first time with my boyfriend.
Speaker 11 (27:32):
He's taking me degrees.
Speaker 5 (27:34):
I know that's right.
Speaker 13 (27:35):
I'm so excited and I think he's gonna propose. But
he hasn't asked me about rings. My family really hasn't
mentioned anything to me. I kind of am getting my
hopes up and I feel like this would be the
perfect opportunity. But if he does it, I don't know
if we should keep going.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Wow, that's crazy. Why you think he's going to propose.
Speaker 13 (27:57):
We've already been together for two years and we've talked
about the future and everything. So I feel like he's
at my family. I've met his family. We all love
each other and get along. I feel like it's time.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
But I do want to say clearly, if he plans
to propose, it's a secret. It's a surprise, right, and
you should let that surprise happen the way that it's
supposed to and not have any expectations because I think
if you go on this trip with expectations, there's a
chance that it may not happen. I would rather you
go and enjoy this beautiful trip that y'all have planned together,
(28:30):
and if it should happen, it's the icing on top
of the key.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
Because she's saying that she's gonna cut him off if
he don't propose.
Speaker 9 (28:36):
Well, the thing is you should maybe take matters in
your own hands and propose to him.
Speaker 5 (28:41):
Oh man, don't listen to that, Jelsea.
Speaker 8 (28:43):
I want to do that.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (28:46):
No one reason, and you guys have discussed it. You
know eventually it's going to happen. Whether or not it
happens on this trip, you know, we have no idea,
but I do think you should.
Speaker 13 (28:56):
Everyone keeps telling me, oh, he must be proposing.
Speaker 5 (28:59):
Oh, you guys are going on bitch trip.
Speaker 13 (29:00):
Of course he's gonna propose. But I feel like at
first I was thinking no, no, but now that everyone
else is saying.
Speaker 4 (29:05):
It, listen, the last thing you want to do in
any relationship is worried about what everybody.
Speaker 9 (29:09):
Else is saying, right, because then you're gonna you're gonna
set yourself up.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
Yeah, don't get out.
Speaker 9 (29:13):
There, and then you're gonna be looking for it, and
then you're gonna be disappointed, and then you're gonna be angry,
and then you're gonna get back and then he gonna
and you're gonna cut them off.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
And then Mano's gonna slide in your DMS and a
moment of weakness.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
And you're gonna be with it.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
Let me see them, and then and then.
Speaker 9 (29:29):
And then I'm gonna mess up your whole I'm gonna
mess up your engagement, your marriage and everything.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
Right now, listen, trust me, Chelsea, Go enjoy the trip.
Speaker 13 (29:38):
That's it okay, thank you both, Thank you so much.
Speaker 4 (29:41):
All right, no problem, have fun, bring us back some chanel.
All right, that part all right? Well that was ask
you eight hundred two nine fifty one fifty in case
you couldn't get through. And when we come back, it
is a Wealth Wednesday and we have attorney trademark attorney
Rosen appears joining us.
Speaker 5 (29:58):
It's way up.
Speaker 9 (30:00):
Wealthy and I don't mind sharing my wealth dog.
Speaker 6 (30:03):
Getting you straight financially, mentally and physically. This is Wealth
Wednesday on way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
What's up?
Speaker 4 (30:09):
It's way up with Angela Yee on a Wealth Wednesday.
And I have a special guest. We have trademark and
business attorney Rosina J. Pears Esquire.
Speaker 8 (30:17):
Thank you so much for having me.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
When we talk about trademarking, this is something that is
really important as far as protecting your brand, but some
people don't understand like how to go about it, why
it's necessarily, what the steps are to take it. So
talk about why it's so important to trademark when you
have your own brand.
Speaker 8 (30:37):
You know, Angela I always likes people, will you build
a house on land you don't own?
Speaker 1 (30:41):
Everyone always says no, But then I say, well, in turn,
why do we build these businesses and the brands if
we don't own them. And it's really the same equivalent
because so often we see people who are building a
nice business also have it torn down by a cease
and desist letter because they did not do the proper steps,
and not only just protecting it so no one else
(31:01):
can tear it down, but also protecting it from copycutters
and counterfeitters and people who can benefit because they could
cause confusion. It could be the logo too, right, You
trademark a logo and somebody might have a logo similar
to yours, or a name that's similar to yours, or
sometimes the exact same name.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
We see this just happen with Pharrell versus Pink. He
has a company I guess it's called p do I
in c and then she felt there would be some confusion.
So I don't know how that's gonna go, because sometimes
I can't tell what's gonna work and what's not gonna work.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Yeah, So the good thing about trademark law is it's
not about what's the same, but what can be being
confusionally similar.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
It's a wealth Wednesday, and I have trademark attorney Rosina
appears here with me. You know, just give us an
example where somebody had a brand and it really like
caused their brand to go away because of a cease
and desist or having to like start all over again.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
There's a lot, you know, even Caesar from Black Ink, right,
he has his issues where he tried to file his
trademark himself. He started his tattooing business, and sometimes a
lot of people don't understand that there's forty five different
classes under trademark right. So yeah, so Caesar when he
filed his application, he filed it for tattooing services, and
(32:12):
so when he had his dog fighting issue and was
fired from the show, he couldn't understand that because he.
Speaker 8 (32:17):
Thought he owned the name black Ink.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Well, when he did his deal, Viacom actually filed the
trademark wow to register it for entertainment services. So that's
when it becomes very important that everybody does research before
they filed brands and adopt brands.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
That's why you need a lawyer.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, this is a lot.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
It is, And imagine a lot of times when you
start a business, sometimes you may not know how well
it's gonna do. You don't and if you haven't taken
those proper precauestions, like you said, you're not going to
build a house on lands you don't own. So you
have to make sure that as part of starting your
business you are protecting your brand.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
And also just doing the research first, right, and before
you adopt your brand name, you definitely want to make
sure that you have done a clearance search for the
words so that you don't get into issues where someone
is now suing you because they're saying your brand is
confusingly similar. And sometimes when people will go to the
USPTO dot UV and they'll just search the name and
nothing comes back, and they'll be like, oh, I'm good, right,
(33:15):
but no, but then if it calls likely so somebody
you could go search Starbucks and say I'm gonna open up.
Speaker 5 (33:21):
A coffee company because star becks right.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
And Starbucks is definitely gonna come and say no, this
can cause confusion and shut the brand down, right. So
it's very important that you understand the nuances because you know,
anyone can file the trademark application, but it's about is
it gonna have protection? And then once you get registration,
is it gonna be able to be strong enough to
enforce your rights in case you having a frencher.
Speaker 4 (33:45):
And you've worked with some amazing people too, like Angela Simmons,
twist us arrogates. That's good that people are knowing that
I need a professional bro Zena Herece is here. She's
a trademark attorney. We are talking about protecting your brand
and everything you need to know as a business owner.
We have more with her when we come back. It's
way up.
Speaker 9 (34:03):
I had a dream of wealthy and I don't mind
sharing my wealth dog.
Speaker 6 (34:07):
Getting you straight financially, mentally and physically. This is Wealth
Wednesday on Way Up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 5 (34:13):
What's up? Way up with Angela Yee.
Speaker 4 (34:15):
I'm Angela Yee and today for Wealth Wednesday, we are
joined by trademark attorney Rosina Pearce. What made you to
say I want to be a trademark and business attorney.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
So I am from the West Side of Chicago, and
I knew I wanted to be an attorney since I
was five years old. Been exposed to the criminal justice system.
You know, my father went to prison, my brothers were
in prison all at one time, and so I just
wanted to do something more impactful, more different. I finished
law school and not having any job offers. I thought
(34:45):
I was gonna work at a big corporation or a
big law firm. Had no job offers. And it was
a professor who told me. He said, you know, I said,
I don't have any jobs. You know, I got three
kids at home. You know, passed the bart first time.
What am I gonna do?
Speaker 5 (34:59):
Okay, yeah, that is not easy, but we're just talking
about that.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Nah, especially with three kids. Yeah, and she was an
infant at the time, so I was having a lot
of them amazing. But so then I fell into a
depression because I was even on my law review at
school and you know, it was only two black people
on there, Me and the other guy, and everybody else
that didn't look like us all had job offers.
Speaker 10 (35:23):
You know.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
It's like when you're finishing law school, it's like, you know,
being drafted to the pros or whatever. And talking to
this professor after passing the bar, he is the one
who planned the seat, and he said, you know, what
do you want to do. I said, I want to
do intellectual property. And he said, well, you will go
a long way serving and underserved. And I said, well,
I don't want to do criminal law because I just
thought about no real quick and I was like, I
(35:44):
want to do that, and he was like, no, who
is underserved in your practice area? And I said small
business owners? And he said, you will go a long
way serving now, and I'll tell you fast forward eleven
years later, I was looking at those big corporate jobs
because I'm like, oh my god, this is how much
i can make. Never made that much money, but you know,
building my own business, have done that and sometimes in
(36:04):
a month, you know times, but also too. Now my
firm is ranked above all of those law firms that
I apply for to work at.
Speaker 4 (36:12):
Sign that out of the top fifty firms, and these
are ready the top fifty firms in the US. In
the US out over twenty eight thousand, Yes, trademark law firms.
You're in the top fifteen of those top fifty.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
I'm ranked top fifteen out of trademark lawyers in the country,
which is over thirty three thousand trademark lawyers in the country.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
Thank you, Thank you well. Listen, I want to thank
you so much Rosina J. Pierce for coming and joining us.

about trademarks, they can book a fifteen minute consultation for
thirty dollars with our firm and we'll explain the trademark
process to them.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
That's right, thirty dollars to make sure that your business
doesn't get no cease and desist and that you start
things on a nice stable foundation.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Right now, We'll just say this because people call and
be like Angela said, those thirty dollars, the trademark process
is fifteen hundred's the call.
Speaker 8 (37:18):
Yes, but we'll give people say, oh, it was only
thirty and.
Speaker 4 (37:20):
That's a good way to get started, to understand what
you need to do and then understand the cost that's
involved with it too and the different levels of that.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
So I think that's important.
