Where are they now?

By Llerraj Esuod

Driven by rejection and limited access, award-winning TV producer and serial entrepreneur Kitty Lundan is a staunch advocate for authentic representation in media. She creates spaces like What’s Poppin’ PBC (Palm Beach County) and My Homeboyz, believing that “no one is just handing you a platform… You’ve got to build your doors.”

Ironically—perhaps divinely—her diverse talents—makeup artistry, song and scriptwriting, and content development—“fit together like pieces of a puzzle.”

Lundan epitomizes “talent in motion,” understanding that each gift and skill serves a greater purpose.

Her song Now I Can’t Breathe exemplifies this, transcending borders with its unifying message of liberty and justice while urging action for social change. She is as committed to a cultural shift as to personal development. However, she admits that sometimes she feels disheartened when “it feels like you are carrying the weight of your dreams alone.” “It’s easy to feel discouraged when doors seem closed,” she shares.

Yet, Lundan draws strength from her faith, knowing it is “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

“Keep pressing. Keep pushing. No matter how many ‘no’s’ you get, it only takes one ‘yes’ to change everything,” she says.

With Season 3 of What’s Poppin’ PBC on the horizon and a book launch underway, Lundan is ready to continue making an impact, confident that “when God does it, it’s always exceedingly and abundantly more than I could ask or imagine.”
