📄 DESCRIPTION:
Episode 391 – “Where Is Tezlyn Figaro From?”
Produced by: Baller Alert

Tezlyn Figaro answers the question: “Where are you from?”—and trust, the answer is everything but simple. In this raw origin story, Tezlyn breaks down her Creole roots in Louisiana, growing up in a Pyro hood in Oklahoma City, and the heavy West Coast influence that shaped her lingo and energy.

From Chicago to Dallas, Orlando to LA—every city added something to the revolutionary you see today. And she’s not shape-shifting for anybody.

🗣 Highlights:

Why Louisiana culture raised her, even if she wasn’t born there

Her Pyro-hood upbringing in OKC

Living in Dallas with nothing at 19 & turning into a corporate boss

Stitches from a Crip, scars from a Blood, soul of a preacher

Why she embodies both hustle and healing
