episode 019: Malania Dela Cruz

Author: with May Globus June 2, 2021 Duration: 1:07:23
Malania Dela Cruz is the kind of human everyone hopes to have in their life. The long-time publicist began her career in television production before transitioning into the PR world, running her agency Dela Cruz PR for a decade, before going in-house as west coast director for Toronto-based Faulhaber Communications and, now, as VP for Nine Point Agency. A lover of singing and dancing from a young age, she spent her childhood in Edmonton and St. Albert, the daughter of a Filipino father and caucasian mother. At 17-years-old, Malania left small community life for the big city, working jobs in nightlife and hospitality in Vancouver before following her soul to Australia, finally ending up back in the Pacific Northwest. In this close conversation, we discuss her layered relationship with her biological father, her healing journey from personal trauma, how essential inclusion & diversity is in organizations and how leaders can do the work, education about the cannabis industry, and much more. 

There’s a particular texture to a life built around creating something meaningful, whether that’s a business, a work of art, or a new path forward. The Craft with May Globus pulls back the curtain on those lives through unhurried, intimate dialogues. May sits down with a diverse range of creators, founders, and pioneers, but the focus here is less on glossy success stories and more on the raw material of their journeys. You’ll hear the nuances of their creative process, the pivotal moments in their personal backstory, and how their philosophy shapes their daily existence. It’s an ongoing exploration of the shared humanity behind different kinds of work. What makes this podcast uniquely immersive is its commitment to being an audio-visual experience. Each conversation is accompanied by rich, editorial-style photography that provides a deeper, more sensory connection to the guest and their world. Think of it like a beautifully composed magazine feature that you can listen to, where the images and the dialogue work in concert. Tuning into this podcast feels like gaining quiet, privileged access to the minds of people who are thoughtfully shaping culture, one idea at a time.
