Where South Bay Businesses, People, and Community Grow Together
A heart-led storytelling platform amplifying the South Bay of Los Angeles community through strategic content, media, and connection.
Hi! I’m Megan Lebre, founder and creator of South Bay Buzz.
Through podcasting, digital content, and local partnerships, I champion the people behind the businesses and organizations — the owners, makers, and leaders who shape our local economy and community life.
What began as a passion project to support friends’ businesses at the start of the pandemic has grown into a trusted platform for visibility, connection, and long-term impact.
My work centers on business retention, relationship-building, and authentic storytelling that helps locals feel proud of where they live — and helps businesses stay rooted and grow in the South Bay.
