How I Got Here: The Making of “The Influencer” | Ep. 1 Sheena Interrupted
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
- Now that we have our ground rules (Ep. 0), a name for the podcast (Ep. 0.02) and two practice runs in (during which we have hopefully worked out the major kinks), we thought the best place to start might be, well, the beginning. Welcome to Episode 1: The Origin Story. While I never set out to be a content creator, influencer, podcaster or online personality of any kind, it certainly has been a wonderful journey so far. And while it has brought with it both times of heartache and moments of pure joy, above all I am grateful for the sense of purpose it has given me - which was missing in some aspect of my life. Thank you for allowing us a space to share my story and for your continued support in this journey.

That Trid so clearly remembers Sheena crying in the restaurant is testimony to what a good man and husband he is.
A very well balanced male.
Very good to see.
Men could learn alot from him.
Sheena is very fortunate.
As is he and their two children too.
❤ 🎆 🙏
Trid, remember Sheena crying inthe restaurant. What a sweet man🥰
He probably said, hey bloody why are you crying in public 😂
I love how TRID leans into his accent more when he is being comedic. He gets me crying 😂
The serious, heartfelt stuff from Trid about the reality of their family I think highlights what a good soul he is.
Warn a sister to sit down next time Sir Trident gets serious. I was not prepared. Almost dropped eggs.
You guys are my favorite!
3:26 I instantly knew what song she was singing. I had that CD!…“If you take your love away from me…I’ll go crazy…I’ll go insane!!”
I want to thank you for this episode. The last 2 minutes of your podcast when you talked about accepting the timing of things really got to me. Been going through something the last couple years that has me emotionally drained, and not only did I receive some good news today but you talking about the timing of things really made me feel like things are gonna be just fine.
I found y’all on TikTok during 2020-2021! Your videos randomly came across my feed and I loved y’all! So many real life giggles. Priceless! I had no idea how to find your TikTok because I am so techie dumb and then I realized you were on TH-cam. I adore y’all! Thank you so much for sharing your sweet giggles with us! ❤
You know what resonated with the interrupted videos, was The real indian dad commentary. It was seeing and hearing our culture come through. The stuff TRID was saying of the lyrics, were things my dad or mom would say on hearing these lyrics. And we were hooked.
Trid adoring Sheena is such a wholesome sight.. like all of her.. the struggles, journey, voice, personality .. God bless u both.. wish i had a husband like that..
Totally engrossing. You’re both brilliant entertainers & entrepreneurs, and now stars. Pls stop using “content creator” and “influencer”-those terms demean my enjoyment. Sheena, you are a multi-faceted artist. Your laugh helped me through COVID. TRID, you were an amazing interviewer in this segment. The show is inspiring.
They don’t need to stop using those CORRECT terms for just you. Why would you even say that, you sound entitled.
This episode was like a warm hug… Both of you are really inspiring! Thank you, really ❤️
This takes me back to that time when I first discovered you. It would be so neat to hear the stories of the people who did connect, because there are stories. That time was a hard time for all of us, and my husband and I were both deeply impacted emotionally but had a hard time connecting to each other. The pandemic impacted us differently so we couldn’t talk. I discovered you both on instagram and we started just literally sitting down together and watching video after video and laugh together. It gave us something to connect together with. I remember my husband coming out of the office because he heard me laughing. He sat down next to me and just stayed, and it became a thing we did together. And to be honest at first I thought Trid was Sheena’s dad AND that Trid was his real name! My whole brain needed a restart when I learned you’re married! So I thank you for the laughter, and for bringing my husband and I together during a difficult time in the world and in our relationship. I’m happy to say the end result of covid is that while it threatened our relationship, it ended up resulting in us being closer than ever because of that threat. 33 years strong! Love you guys. ❤
I look forward to seeing this every week. Thank you for being so good at entertaining..
Thanks for watching!
Loved your story, now the love story must be told. I’ve been following and waiting a long time,so please let it be told.❤❤❤
Coming soon!
"And to see a woman that looked like me, doing something, sometimes with makeup or not makeup, sometimes dressed up or not dressed up -- I was comfortable in my skin, and I think that was something a lot of people could relate to" Um Sheena, I'm not sure if you fully realize but you are absolutely STUNNING with or without makeup. Like, drop dead gorgeous!
This was really good. I loved seeing TRID’s serious side. He had a lot of great things to say while also maintaining the comic relief. Sheena your story is inspirational and I love how your just another mom out there doing the damn thing
Trid is so good at interviewing you ! Of course he is funny, but he really pays attention to details and keeps the intended story on track. I watched every minute and it enjoyed it ! I was glad to hear Sheena wipes her own butt 😂🤣.
You nailed it TRID with the unexpected we get to consumed into seeing what people wants us to see so thanks for that reality..
Wow great message at the end Sheena! Thank you, this is a big realization for me in my current situation ❤ Let go and allow as the journey may be different from the way you picture it and it could lead to more than you imagined ❤
I also would like to know Trid’s history, I think the World wants to know.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIIIIIIIISSSSSSS!!!!!!! I've been waiting for this for God knows how long... I'm teary-eyed so so so so happy... xoxo for you both...
MORE OF THESE PLEASE...

I enjoy the content both you and Trid make I remember the first time I seen one of your videos I was not having a good day but after watching one of your shorts it put me in a better mood and since then I have been viewing your content a few times weekly.
I 100% got the Blackstreet reference as soon as Sheena said the line and also finish the lyrics to the rest of the song! Proud Xillennial! 🤣🥰
I love finding out that Trid was 100% on board with Sheena's gift, talent and dreams. It's rarer then people know and seeing it gives me hope. Women deserve to dream and be, outside of societal roles, but often don't get support. I love, love.
The admiration he has for her… how he wanted her to realize how much she has accomplished.. and for people to see the real woman he loves and not the “lucky stay at home mom with a rich husband” this is just what marriage is about… perfection in one video! Thank you trid for showing us we shouldn’t expect less than this ❤️
I loved this episode ❤ To all the people who hated the previous episode… All you needed was to be patient, this is new to them and they will get used to it.
I was one of those people who stumbled onto your videos on TikTok and fell in love with you guys. Always look forward to the next video and what you guys come up with. Congrats on starting the podcast. I don't listen to podcasts at all, but for you guys, I've made an exception. This particular episode came at the right time for me. I'm going through a low at the moment and hearing your story gives me confidence that I'll get through to the other side. Appreciate you both! 🙏🏻
Sheena, your infectios smile saved me in the most difficult time of my life. I had a very difficult pregnancy and i was at high risk of losing my twins and discovering you when i was in the hospital helped me keep my mind off for enough time to relax a bit a get short instances of sleep while i was waiting to see if i will lose the pregnancy. I have been following you on Facebook since August 2022 and i now have 2 beautiful and healthy baby girls (born at 28 weeks but they are fighters) and i am so grateful for your content.
Sheena you and Trid made us laugh so hard we were hurting. I remember finding your videos around 10 pm one night, and I had to stop binge watching it around 4am the next morning . The only reason I had to stop watching it was , I was hurting so bad from laughing I had a head ache starting.
I find this very entertaining... much better than anything on tv.
This was so beautiful and personal!! I love this so much can't wait to see more of you guys and the podcast. ❤❤❤
Thank you for putting your “skill” in that way. Because I am very good with people. I can talk to or connect or just, many many people have called me an angel, and I felt the same way that I want to share these feelings and what nots. Putting it as sharing your gift. That’s what I do. I share the gift I was given. I am on a self loving self finding self motivated, self self and I love seeing the growth I’m going through. Being conscious of your growth is the best feeling ever. Well one of the best feelings. ❤
This is so inspirational Sheena, sometimes life gives us with pleasant surprises. It’s about getting started. Take action and follow the flow. Effort pays… in some way or another. Timing will be perfect
Getting better - in every waaay
yeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyy 🔥🔥🔥🔥🥳🥳🥳🥳❤️
Everyone should have a chance to hear your beautiful voice! I'm glad you didn't give up on your dreams because you do have an amazing voice! You could easily be a singer in my opinion.
Watched every episode today . Just found out you had a podcast . Great work!!!!
I love “I was almost positive I had nothing to do with it…” I have that feeling at least twice a week.
Wow. This was deep on so many levels. I don't think I've ever really seen this side of TRID before. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Meanwhile guys, the "comeback" video that had only 12 views then now has 601k views, at the time of posting this comment (I checked😅)
You two knocked it out of the park on the first podcast!
Being a stay at home mom is the hardest most productive, unpaid job that only has that one chance! Be proud of that huge accomplishment!!!
& Btw- Your voice is unreal!
Hubby's funny!
Sweet couple.....❤
I found this episode very encouraging because I had given up on my dreams.
What a lovely message life has highs ,lows and the unexpected everyday.
I so identify with ...about 8 years ago my grandfather died and in my grief I was talking with an online friend and I said " I am going to post 500 poems of mine on Facebook in two years" I had gotten so far from my writing
That launched me on my pathway
People read what I write and tell me how they identify and I know that that connection is because my written voice is of Something Greater Than Myself
The joy in my life is from me being me
Always enjoy seeing you two and the kiddos
Thank you
It took me a bit to find the podcast, between all your other videos, all the laughs from them, I found #3 here on TH-cam. Now I am binge watching to catch up. Thank you, 🙂🥰
Serotonin unlock. I'm hooked. Very Well Done podcast. Live, Learn, Laugh. Both of you on the right Track. Can't wait for the next episode.❤️
Thank you both for sharing yourselves with us. I enjoy and celebrate the purity and joy of your relationship.
Yes!!!, new episode. Was really looking forward for this. These need to be hour long episodes.
Finally the podcast that was worth to watch from you guys!
that was the best podcast episode yet, it actually brought me to tears but also brought me so much laughter. thank you for this week's podcast! looking forward to the next!
Awww so glad you enjoyed
So strange to hear TRID being the serious one... Loved every moment of this.... And so much needed inspiration,.thank you both...keep doing you❤
I don’t know where this podcast is going but I’m still onboard.
When you realize that TRID is not only this goof animated face, but someone who is fun, but knows what he's doing and take things serious. Not that I didn't know that, it's just the realization of it...
I ABSOLUTELY love this! You both are awesome!
Very nice podcast.
I love when you two are goofing around and Trid is, imo, a comedic genius and Sheena a great "comic foil" but it's really cool to hear you both sharing your life, family, relationship, etc..
Trid is a wise man btw.
❤
OMG her voice 😮❤
Edit: don't cry, we got to listen to your gift and we will more if you let us actually
Btw sheena ive only recently heard you sing and i want to say dan you definitely have some vocals girl!! 😮👏👏
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your family is beautiful. I am so glad your life went the way it did. Or probably wouldn't have gotten to see you. You don't personally know me. But I feel I'm getting to know you and your family. When you commented that us viewers are your friends I started to tear up. I do love that you are talking about your life. I have heard you sing and I believe you could have a career at that but then we probably wouldn't have gotten to know you as the wonderful people that you are. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
When Sheena said people were desperate for a laugh during covid AMEN! i think thats still very true today . Good observation Sheena !
Finally found the podcast at 3am... Excited I got something to look forward to tomorrow...🎉🎉
I can say, I'm disgusting. The first Interupted episode touched me and I've been hooked ever since. Go ahead, TRID, do what you will. But I'm hooked! I won't back down!
I watched this episode while I was running on the treadmill and the story about driving in the snow !!!! 😂😂😂😂 I almost fell off the treadmill I had to grab the handles so funny

Everyone knows the beginning of those songs. More memorable than the actual song! “Don’t leave me girl! Please stay with me tonight!!…” 🥰 🎶
I am obsessed! such good contents, this journey is going to be beautiful with you guys.
❤ I truly love you both. I remember seeing those first videos and being confused about what was going on. Your podcast is gold. I'm here as your ride or die fan. Blessings always and thank you!❤

I originally found you by listening to your music. But during the pandemic, you brought laughter and joy. Thank you so much.
TRIP IS THE BEST. THE MOST ELOQUENT and Hilarious MAN EVER.
soooo we all just gonna pretend we didn't see TRID's face?? Also I loved Sheena's vulnerability today you guys are awesome!
I love the podcast makes me smile and life a little easier
Love, love, love this!! ❤️❤️. Thank you to both of you. You bring me joy and laughter, and also many things to think about in my own life. Hugs to both of you.
I love you guys. I really enjoyed this episode
I Love your podcast! Trid gave some great advice, and the journey to where you are today was awesome. You both deserve the credit and accolades. ❤❤
love the episode! keep up the great work!!
Very inspiring story. So happy it's finally working out well for you.😊
Sheena not remembering her moment of inspiration and saying, awwww when Trid told the story. It's as if she was feeling empathy for someone else's story. 😂
When Sheena said “go back, way back” I already knew.
wen i first came across your videos several years ago you were sitting at the piano singing and your dad or so i thought was teasing you and through your laughter you kept on singing really great signing with a really funny dad. its so awesome to be with someone that makes you laugh like your husband makes you laugh. thank you for sharing
I totally get it. I also dont wanna do what other people is doing.
You two are an inspiring, wonderful couple, and I'd love to have you as neighbors. Thank you both for sharing yourselves with us. ❤
You guys are very funny, inspiring, musical of course. You are a true blessing, you can make people laugh and inspire and entertain at the same time. Thanks for being so authentic. That is your superpower. Best wishes for everything you do.
hands down my new fav podcast and look forward to more stuff!
I love the podcast guys
I have a long drive to work and was looking for something different
Thanks for the laughs
I’m so loving this new channel. MASTER TRID IS THE BEST ❗️❗️💥💥❗️
Blessings,Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊🇺🇸
Great episode 👍 Enjoyed seeing a more serious side as well!
I just got in the comment section to say that. 💪
I love your voice Sheena it's amazing. Really enjoying your podcast and seeing another side of Trid. ❤️
When Sheena started singing Blackstreet, I freaked out. I still jam out to that song.
Just as I was thinking now we hear you laugh, Trid said it and it warmed my heart
thank you guys for this .... love you both and keep doing this
I totally understood your Blackstreet reference! That literally takes me “back in time” 😆That whole album was fantastic. Oh how I miss 90’s/Early 2000’s R&B 😩 I’m newer to your channel but that reference, the Ceelo one, and your beautiful singing…solidifies that my decision to subscribe to your channel was a wise choice 😆❤
What an amazing couple! Couple is the word, although Sheena has all these amazing talents it is Trid that brings it out of her! AMAZING COUPLE 🥰🥰👌👌
