In this powerful episode of The NYC Experience, Rafael Gomez, Lancelot Theobald Jr., and Jose Escobar are joined by three remarkable guests—and for the first time, sponsors of the show—whose presence is no coincidence. This conversation is a divine alignment of purpose, legacy, and bold leadership.
This isn’t just a show. It’s a moment in time—where people come together not just to talk, but to build something lasting.
We’ll revisit how we all connected, why those relationships matter now more than ever, and how it’s leading us to something greater: gathering in person at the NYC Experience Brunch on July 20th.
Come see what happens when purpose meets partnership.
