RELATIONSHIP STRATEGIST KENNY PUGH CHARMS HIS HOMETOWN


By: T.MORRISON AGENCY Staff

Last Thursday, our client, "The Relationship Strategist", Kenny Pugh ventured back to his hometown in the Buckeye State - Dayton, Ohio for his much anticipated "Can You Do IT Standing Up?" (CYDISU) book tour and was THE media darling with more interviews than the actual time he would be there.

On Thursday, Pugh interviewed with Vick at The Dayton Daily News and was quite impressed with the level of questions he was asked.  Pugh shares Vick asked questions about Pugh's upbringing and how his parents' relationship encouraged his current viewpoint among other interesting questions. We look forward to getting the published article and sharing with his friends and family in Dayton!

Kenny Pugh on Living Dayton TV with Nathalie and Zuri
Friday morning, Kenny met with Natasha at WHIO to talk about his inspiration behind the book which led to the idea that he should meet with a group of high school students to inspire them with his personal story of being a 'hometown hero' and the possibilities they have available to them. Oops, school was out, but we hear the interview aired this past Monday and was great!  As soon as we get the footage we'll post!

Click here to see Kenny on Living Dayton shortly after his interview at WHIO, which sparked some real intrigue from the co-hosts!

He also got a chance to hang out with Garth at 92.1 and the Femme Fatale "CRUNK" radio show with his college friend Rich along with Lady Kootore and Nedra that was hilarious!

Pugh's events were very successful and attracted crowds and fans where he showed up.  We're very grateful to Cameron and Natasha at WHIO, Garth (92.1), Rhonda (Living Dayton), Meredith & Vick at Dayton Daily News, Kevin at Columbus Black and the team at Femme Fatale Radio Show!

Highlights from Evening of Entertainment with Kenny Pugh

On Valentine's Day we spent quality time with "The Relationship Strategist" himself, Kenny Pugh as he hosted The Chat Kafe live at The Cup Gourmet Cafe in quaint Brookhaven in Atlanta.

He was joined by Comedian C. Davis who had our sides cracked all night along with the wisdom and wit of Tia R. Ervin aka "The WEDucator" as they gave insight, advice and encourage to singles who donned the venue with class, sophistication and the expectation to celebrate their singleness!

Keni Myles of The Rude Boys serenaded us with classics and new music that had us all swaying and singing along to his lyrics.

If you missed this event, you don't want to miss any others as Mr. Pugh is taking this show on the road and heading up towards Columbus, Ohio next.  However, The Chat Kafe streams live every Tuesday night at 8pm - 10pm and airs in Atlanta on Fridays at 1570AM.

Keeping Up with T.MORRISON


By: T.MORRISON AGENCY Staff

You always have to be on-point when working in public relations because you never know if one of your clients may need you at the last minute to attend an event or red carpet awards show with them, just as our Founder, Tamika Morrison experienced.  Tamika had the pleasure of being invited to The 2nd Annual Legendary Awards presented by Divas Unlimited at The Fabulous Fox Theater.  The event was hosted by retired NBA player, Dominique Wilkins and his dynamic committee.  Two of our clients Dr. Nathaniel Johnson and Mr. Val Archer (Tuskegee Airmen) attended the event side by side with Tamika. Mr. Archer received recognition for his contribution to American History as portrayed in the blockbuster movie, "Red Tails" and was award honorees, Music Producer, Dallas Austin, Football Hall of  Fame Deion Sanders and Media Mogul Mr. Ted Turner

What a beautiful event, which was captured by photographer PaulBiagui Photography!

We received the official footage from The Wendell Show when our client, One Hundred Days (who's also the recipient of a big win from a major online news site!) was on their show last month to talk about the great work they are doing to help restoration in Rwanda. Founder of OHD, Dr. Scott Sasser and Linda Cox shared the stage, engaging college students on the campus of UGA about their Rwandan journey.  Linda Cox says it best, “It warms my heart to want to help someone who wants to help themselves that much.”  When she’s speaking about Rwanda you can see in her eyes the passion she has for the cause.  You can check out the interview below:


This has been a great week for us as we've had several media requesting our clients, especially, Mr. Val Archer, Tuskegee Airmen and "The Relationship Strategist", Kenny Pugh.  

Special thanks to Tekoa Gospel News that features Kenny Pugh on their cover as well as features on The Black Man Can interviewed by Founder, Brandon Frame, and Brotha.com and an appearance on The Wendell Show at the campus of UGA.  Kenny will also be featured relationship speaker at STIR this Saturday, February 18th in Decatur, Georgia at the Porter Sanford Performing Arts Center. As you can see, he's definitely one to watch!

"The Relationship Strategist" Give Singles Ways to AVOID Backsliding


Bestselling Author & Radio Personality
"The Relationship Strategist" Kenny Pugh

Kenny Pugh,“The Relationship Strategist” is the author of bestselling title, “Can You Do IT Standing Up? A Different Position on Relationships” (November 2011).


We've been working with the "Celibate, Committed & Courageous" eligible bachelor with his book, that has sold thousands of copy to date.  We recently sat down and spoke with Kenny about his message of promoting sexually purity during courtship.

With Kenny's insights in his latest book, he has advice for single men and women and pleading with them to not allow the approaching "V-Day" take them backsliding into unhealthy relationships.

Here are some insights:


·         Meet your partner at a volunteer event – Kenny states that having shared goals gives a relationship more of a foundation to build upon and instead of adding ‘notches’ to your belt, you can actually add ‘bricks’ that will make the possibilities for a long-term relationship more of a reality.

·         Wait to have sex – He is a single man that has practiced celibacy over the past several years in dating relationships. Kenny credits keeping sex absence from the relationship has given him a clearer picture of whether his love interest is a good match or a ‘good look’ and since sex is kept out of the equation, it has led to building great friendships thereby avoiding misleading someone once it’s determined there is nothing in common outside of the initial physical attraction.

·         Date Yourself – Kenny encourages singles to date themselves first and foremost to become the “Mr. or Ms. Right” they are seeking in someone else. Mr. Pugh points out in his book that there is often a lopsided ratio that says there are more women to a single man, therefore giving men the upper-hand, however, in his book, Pugh states, “the QUANTITY of women has NO correlation to the QUALITY of available women.” He concludes that men often find there are more unqualified women than they are quality women and if individuals focus on improving themselves first then they’ll be more likely to attract a quality mate that will lead to long-term benefits such as marriage.



As a matter-of-fact, you can put this into practice right now! Make sure to attend "Evening of Entertainment" in Atlanta with Kenny and friends at The Cup on February 14th! Tickets only $15 and includes a live remote of The Chat Kafe Show, Comedy, Music and Relationship Talk and includes light bites and cocktails compliments of Godiva Liqueur.


Kenny wishes to serve as a vessel of understanding in an era of disconnected, aimless, and broken relationships, and to soothe adversities of all forms, whether practical, relational, or spiritual. Through years of experience as a facilitator, workshop presenter, and keynote speaker at various conferences, ministry services, and for profit corporate events, Kenny has refined his sense of relationship success through the art of communication, willingness to be vulnerable and promoting sexual purity between dating couples.


There are more dating insights to explore in Kenny Pugh’s book, “Can You Do ITStanding Up?” so be sure to purchase yours today and sign-up for the next CYDISU event or book tour at www.kennypugh.com.

On top of that we will be graced by the presence of Comedian C. Davis and The WEDucator - pique your interest? Well, get your tickets now because we are almost sold out!
