Meet TIffany Mason

Hi, I’m Tiffany Mason, founder of Virtually You VA—where Your Mic becomes My Magic. With over five years of experience in podcast production and management, I help small business owners turn their podcasts into powerful networking tools that build real relationships, increase visibility, and create opportunities. Because podcasting isn’t just content—it’s networking that multiplies opportunities. The right conversation doesn’t just stay an episode… it creates connections that continue working for you long after you hit record.

My journey started as a passion project during a time when I was craving more flexibility and a way to be present for my family. I launched my podcast, Memories With A Beat, simply because I love music and the stories behind it. Somewhere between teaching myself how to edit and bringing episodes to life, I realized something bigger—podcasting wasn’t just about sharing stories, it was about building relationships. Now, I handle the behind-the-scenes so you can focus on your business, while your podcast consistently builds connections, expands your reach, and opens doors you didn’t even know were there.

When I’m not behind the mic or editing episodes, you’ll find me listening to country music, watching a little too much reality TV, or at the beach—because yes, it absolutely calls me (Moana wasn’t wrong 😉).

👉 Ready to turn your podcast into a networking tool that actually works for you? Let’s chat. Book a call and let’s make some magic.

I'm a podcaster too

Not only do I help manage YOUR podcast, but I’m out here hosting, managing, and producing my own!

Music can bring up a memory in seconds! Join me as I interview people to understand how the lyrics to a song make them feel and remember. I'm sure some of your own memories will be sparked! Let's learn about other's memories with a beat!

Tropical Drink Umbrella

A Tale of the Tropical Cocktail Umbrella's Journey

October 09, 20234 min read

Ahhh, my fellow cocktail enthusiasts, to another whimsical exploration into the world of libations! Have you ever thought about the journey of the small, seemingly insignificant object that holds within it a tale of anticipation, mystery, and a touch of tropical charm—the drink umbrella. Have you ever stopped to ponder just how many times that little umbrella moves before it playfully lands in your cocktail? Let's go on a lighthearted journey through the twists and turns of its adventure!

Our tale begins with the birth of the drink umbrella, a humble creation born in the depths of a production facility. Skilled artisans meticulously craft each umbrella, delicately folding its vibrant canopy with precision and care. From its very inception, the umbrella yearns for the day it will fulfill its purpose—bringing a touch of paradise to someone's drink.

Once the production is complete, the drink umbrellas are bundled up and embark on their first journey—shipping. Packed into boxes, they travel across seas and continents, making their way to the bartenders and establishments awaiting their arrival. Along the way, they may encounter storms, customs officials, and even a little mishap or two, but their spirit remains undeterred.

Upon reaching their destination, the drink umbrellas find themselves in the loving hands of bartenders, the maestros of mixology. From busy beach bars to elegant lounges, these talented individuals select the perfect umbrella to complement each drink they create. With a flick of the wrist, they pluck a tiny umbrella from its resting place and set it upon their workspace—the first move in the dance of destiny.

As the bartenders craft your drink, the little umbrella observes the surrounding activity with eager anticipation. Will it be chosen for this particular drink? Or will it be saved for a future tropical escapade? Only the bartender knows, and the umbrella waits for its turn to shine.

And then, the moment arrives—the bartender reaches for the tiny umbrella, its destiny sealed in their hands. It moves from the bartender's hand to the glass rim. It may travel a few inches or traverse an entire stretch of the bar counter, avoiding spills, garnish mishaps, or the occasional ocean breeze. The umbrella is a silent partner in the art of mixology.

But the journey doesn't end there! Once your cocktail is complete, it is carefully placed in the bartender's trusty tray and delivered to your table. As you eagerly await your drink, the little umbrella rests, patiently biding its time.

As the waiter brings your drink to you, the umbrella moves once again, this time in the waiter's hand, gracefully navigating through the restaurant. It finds its way to your table, perched atop your glass, ready to bring a touch of whimsy to your day.

But wait, the adventure is not over for the tropical little umbrella! You can't help yourself but to put it in your hair. Nestled safely behind your ear simply enhances your beauty. Now you are motivated to show your moves on the dance floor. 

From the cart, the umbrellas make their way to the storage area, where they rest until it's time for a new batch of cocktails to be created. With each move, they wait patiently, knowing that their journey is far from over.

And so, the cycle continues—production, shipping, the bartender's hand, the glass rim, the waiter's tray, the drink to your table and eventually putting you in a playful mood placed in your beautiful hair. The little umbrellas bring joy and a touch of tropical paradise to countless drinks along the way.

Eventually, they may find their way into your grocery store, tucked among the shelves of cocktail essentials. And as you pick up a pack of drink umbrellas, you become a part of their story—a story that moves from production to shipping, from the bartender's hand to the glass rim, from the cart to your pantry. And I could make up a similar story as that of the bartender except this time it's you in the surroundings of your comfy home and joyful friends. You too lighten the mood by placing the tropical umbrellas in their drinks. Time for a group photo with the umbrellas enhancing your heads of hair.

So, the next time you find yourself enjoying a cocktail adorned with a playful little umbrella, take a moment to appreciate the remarkable journey it undertook. From production to shipping, from the bartender's hand to your glass, these tiny objects have traveled far and wide, spreading joy and a touch of paradise along the way.

Cheers to the fascinating journey of the drink umbrella! May it continue to dance its way into our hearts, one beverage at a time.
