We had the good fortune of connecting with Charnelle Asante and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Charnelle, what matters most to you?
A value that matters most to me is fostering a sense of community. I believe in providing a space where individuals can come together, connect, and engage in meaningful discussions about their current reads or favorite shows. Creating a community within Spoiler Talk allows users to feel a sense of belonging and enriches their overall experience.

What should our readers know about your business?
Spoiler Talk stands out by creating a vibrant community where users can discuss their favorite shows, movies, and books. I am excited about bringing on a full-stack software engineer to upgrade the app and introduce new features like a book club. Despite the challenges, I have persevered by staying true to my passion and being open to change. I want the world to know that the app offers a fresh approach to building communities around shared love for their shows, books, and movies.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
During the week: -Breakfast at Hilltop/Sip & Sonder/Poppy + Rose
-Book stores (Octavia’s Bookshelf, Reparations Club)

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My advisor, Ajani. Though I met him later on in my journey with Spoiler Talk, he believed in me and the app enough to offer to become my advisor. It was important for me to get the experience of having a Venture Partner on my advisory board because it gave me more confidence in what I had created and gave me the extra guidance I needed.
