In this episode of ‘Black Market’ on the ‘85 South Comedy Show’, entrepreneur and creative Flockaland joins host Karlous Miller for an engaging discussion. Flockaland, who has her own brand called “Stay (+)” that emphasizes positivity through clothing, has a longstanding connection with the 85 South Show, having first met them in 2016. She shares insights about her background as a nurse aide and her passion for science, noting how atoms influence her brand’s philosophy. Recently, she held a pop-up shop in Ghana, which she describes as the “original Atlanta,” and encourages the hosts to visit.
The conversation explores Flockaland’s Haitian heritage and how her trip to Africa ignited something profound within her. She also introduces her new show, “Flockaland’s World,” which aims to pose unique, nostalgic questions to artists rather than the usual interview fare. Karlous and Flockaland share fond memories of their school days, reminiscing about cafeteria experiences, particularly the beloved chicken tender day, and strict school rules.
Throughout the interview, themes of entrepreneurship, positivity, and the challenges faced by young Black women in business take center stage. The tone remains casual and friendly, filled with laughter and shared experiences. Flockaland promotes her brand’s website (staypositiveinc.com) and her social media accounts for those interested in supporting her work.
