Am I? Okay? 5 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: Not that this is a podcast where we talk about 6 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: internet drama, because that's just not what we do here. 7 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 1: And actually it's none of my business what happens with 8 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: other influences in their life on social media, Like it's 9 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: got nothing to do with me. But I think anyone 10 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 1: that has TikTok has obviously seen at the moment there's 11 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: videos being thrown around between Anna Paul and michaela Tester, 12 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: who are two creators online. I'm sure you've seen it 13 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: if you've got TikTok, And it's just got me thinking 14 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: in another way about online personalities and content creators. And 15 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: we talk about that a lot here on the pod, 16 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: like you know, social media in general, and I've seen 17 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: a lot of videos being thrown around about you know, 18 00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: people are fake online. You know, I'm sure you've seen 19 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: it as well Asxander. Like the whole conversation is like 20 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: she's not who we thought she was, blah blah blah. 21 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: There is a real movement right now of exposing these 22 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,199 Speaker 2: and I hate saying fake, but fake influencers like they're 23 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 2: putting on another persona and they're getting caught. 24 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: Out they are, And yeah, that's what I'm noticing too, 25 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: Like just influencers being called left, called out, left, right 26 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: and center about things that say online and contradicting themselves xyz. 27 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: And it just got me thinking more so about me 28 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: and my positioning, and it just made me want to 29 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: talk about something which I've lightly mentioned before I feel 30 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: on the pod, before I get into that, I think 31 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: by this point we all know that the Internet is fake. 32 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: So I'm kind of shocked at everyone acting so surprised 33 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: with this whole situation, which again is none of my 34 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: business what's happening between these girls. I don't know them 35 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,279 Speaker 1: from a bar of soap, But why are people acting 36 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: surprised that people may act differently online to real life, 37 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: because surely we are all smart enough to know like 38 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: social media is fabricated, it is edited. Like I'll even 39 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: go as far as saying, like all of my videos 40 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: are strategically planned. We set the camera up and we 41 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 1: start talking, and we know what we're going to say, 42 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: and then we edit it and then we post it online. 43 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: So of course social media in general isn't real life 44 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: because it's not natural, like it's not natural in any sense. 45 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: But one thing that I experienced that I think people 46 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: would find interesting, or maybe someone listening has done this before, 47 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: but one of the most interesting parts of my journey 48 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: and how I was an influencer in youtubeer and all 49 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, and then I, you know, slowly 50 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: over the years started fade, and then I became more of, 51 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: I guess, a business owner and an entrepreneur than transitioning 52 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: into employing people. But how weird it is that I 53 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: still have this following online and people might see me 54 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: in a different way. And what shocks me is whilst 55 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,079 Speaker 1: we're hearing all this conversation online now about influencers a 56 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: fake and Anna Paul's a liar and Xyz she's different 57 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: to what she is in her videos, people do that 58 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: with my staff, not in a way where they're saying 59 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: to my staff, Britney's fake. But it blows my mind 60 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: how often I speak to team members of Fate and 61 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: how often they are questioned about me as if though 62 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: I'm some fucking alien online. And it's the weirdest thing 63 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: for me to experience and maybe people don't think about 64 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 1: it when they do this, because I genuinely think people 65 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: view people online as not normal people, like they put 66 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: influencers in a different box. 67 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: I think I actually disagree with that a bit. I 68 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 2: think some people awes. Yeah, I think a lot of 69 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 2: people do view them as normal people. And that's why 70 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: you're seeing such a crazy amount of people coming to 71 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: their defense, Like it's kind of a bit unhinged when 72 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 2: like things are exposed and then the things that have 73 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: been exposed are pretty fed up. Yeah, and the people 74 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 2: are writing and dying for these people. I'm like, Number one, 75 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: they're not your friends, that is true. Number two, you 76 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: don't know them, No. 77 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 3: One hundred. 78 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,239 Speaker 1: Even even when you feel like you know someone online, 79 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: you don't. It's very interesting and the interesting part, which 80 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: I guess just got me thinking about me and my 81 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: journey and going from influencer to business owner and people's 82 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: boss when I still have a following and other people 83 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: view me as an influencer, but my staff don't because 84 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: they're with me in real day to day life people 85 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to say daily, but weekly. Especially in 86 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: our retail stores, they go in to shop, which we love, 87 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,679 Speaker 1: we love people supporting fate and going in. But they'll 88 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: go up to my staff and be like, so do 89 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: you know Brittany what she really like? And that, to 90 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: me is the weirdest thing that people would go and 91 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: ask a random person what their boss is like in 92 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: real life. Hmmm, Like you don't. You don't go and 93 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: do that at Cohle's. You don't go to Cohl's and say, 94 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: what's the manager he like in real life? But because 95 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: I've got this online social media thing tied to me 96 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: from like having a following, it's just the weirdest fucking 97 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: thing ever. 98 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's a funny question to ask because immediately 99 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,160 Speaker 2: my mind goes to that people want some as much 100 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 2: as people support you or support other influences. I secretly, 101 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 2: I think they secretly want want them to fail and 102 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 2: want tea. Yeah, Like they don't care if you fail 103 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 2: or if you're succeeding. They are just kind of a 104 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 2: loong for the ride a lot of people. 105 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: It's wild to me that people walk in my store 106 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: and ask my staff what I'm like in real life, 107 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: and that's the number one question they get asked.

And it's not just in our stores. 141 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: It's like just say, one of our office employees will 142 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: be at a party on the weekend and it comes 143 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: up that they work at Fate.

And I've had a few 175 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: run ins with past staff members from years ago where 176 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: like they've been upset at me because I think they 177 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 1: had different expectations coming to work at FATE. I think 178 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: I said this age is ago, but years and years 179 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: and years ago, I didn't invite someone that worked at 180 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 1: Fate to my birthday party and she lost it at 181 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: me as if it was the weirdest thing ever, Like 182 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: this was when she was lea the workplace. Ye. And 183 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: I've had one other person who we unfortunately had to 184 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: take off the roster send me like a really nasty 185 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: email saying like you're nothing like you are online xyz. 186 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: And it's just I keep saying the word interesting because 187 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: I think just the lines become blurred. 188 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think. 189 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: I mean, God, I had I looked up to a 190 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 2: lot of YouTubers back in the day, and like you 191 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 2: do you want to be their friend, But I think 192 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: that want to be their friend within that you're actually 193 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 2: losing that they're a real person, Like they only see 194 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 2: one side of it. So once they're around you or 195 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: once they're working with you, yeah, that illusion is broken. 196 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: And again like me having this big following online and 197 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: creating all these fun videos and people loving them, and 198 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: let's say they come into work at Fate. Let's so 199 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: they come into work at one of our retail stores, 200 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: and then let's say they're being late a lot and 201 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: they're doing something else that isn't the best if I've 202 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: then had to go to them and say, look, we 203 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: know that you're being late, and this is just like 204 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: a verbal warning that you need to stop being late. 205 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 3: Instantly, those feelings. 206 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: That they had about me from following me online are changed, 207 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: and instantly it would be she's different. She's different to 208 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 1: social media. But that's because I'm not on social media 209 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: when I'm your boss and I'm going to call you 210 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 1: out if you've done something wrong in the business that 211 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: you're working out that I own that I pay you for. Yeah, 212 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: And I've had instances like that where people like you're 213 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: nothing like. 214 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 3: You are online. 215 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. Correct, I'm not an influencer as your boss. Like 216 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: i'm your boss, I've got to call you out when 217 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: you've done something wrong. And I think this is just 218 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: something that I'll always have as part. 219 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 3: Of my life. 220 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: Is just the difficulty of having those two worlds crossover. 221 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 3: In real life. I'm a regular person. 222 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 2: The best thing that you do, and it's important for 223 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 2: other people who are in the industry, is that yes, 224 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 2: you are different online, but you're being authentically you, and you're. 225 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 4: Also not wanting to be someone online, and you're. 226 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 2: Also not lying and doing all these sneaky things, which 227 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 2: is where people are being. 228 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 4: Called out and at the moment. 229 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 2: So that's that's the biggest thing to note. It's that, yes, 230 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 2: you're a different persona online, but you're still authentically Britge. 231 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still me, Like I'm not out here pretending 232 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 1: to be someone else on social media. And then I'm 233 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: different at work, but like, of course I'm going to 234 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: be different in a fun video than when I'm knees 235 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: deep in shit at work. 236 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 4: Making sure the orders come in exactly right. 237 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 3: Like it's just two different things. 238 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: And I guess just seeing all these videos popping up 239 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks about influencers being fake 240 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: or not the same way that they are online, Like, 241 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: no one is exactly the same as they are online, 242 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: because online isn't real. 243 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 3: It is filmed.
