Because I feel like you're someone who 24 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 3: is a hustler who just keeps going. You seem like 25 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 3: not in a bad way, but like unemotional, like shit 26 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 3: doesn't phase you and you just push through and like, yep, 27 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 3: this is what I do. You're like a worker hustler b. 28 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 3: But like do you sit there and go, wow, this 29 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 3: is awesome? 30 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: Nuh. 31 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 3: And that's the end of the questions for coming on, Tommy, 32 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 3: But like do you need to take more time to 33 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 3: do that? 34 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:23,839 Speaker 2: Yeah? 35 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: But I think the hard thing with that is, like, 36 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: how do you celebrate your wins? I think so we 37 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: do little things. And it's a great question because it 38 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: gets me thinking, like do I celebrate my wins? And 39 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: I honestly don't think I do. And I think I've 40 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: had this conversation with you Xander as well, and it 41 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: all comes back to like yourself worth and everything which 42 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: we spoke about. I would say that I celebrate my 43 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: wins in small ways, like AJ and I always love 44 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: going out for dinner and we just have like a 45 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: nice dinner and we don't really care about how much 46 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: it costs kind of thing. And I see that as 47 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: us treating ourselves, you know, for how hard we've worked 48 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: kind of thing. 49 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: But is that an intentional thing? Like I did ever 50 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 3: I saw the store made x amount of money, so 51 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 3: let's book this dinner. 52 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 2: But I see it. 53 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: I see it in that way, but we don't go, 54 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: let's book a dinner and celebrate. Or sometimes we will, 55 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: or sometimes when we're out for dinner, we'll do a 56 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: cheers with each other and be like, fuck, what a 57 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: month or what a week or whatever, But it's never 58 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: like an intentional celebration. And I guess another way that 59 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: I think that we're unintentionally celebrating all of our achievements 60 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,119 Speaker 1: over the years is obviously we're doing up our house 61 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: at the moment, So I'm seeing that as like a 62 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 1: gift to ourselves to have this beautiful house exactly how 63 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: we want it. 64 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: We're really going to get a lot of enjoyment out 65 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: of that. 66 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: But again, we're not doing that let's renovate our house 67 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 1: because we've been working so hard kind of thing. But 68 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,119 Speaker 1: I see that as a celebration. But I think it's 69 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: actually hard when you're in it. I feel like it's 70 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: hard to celebrate your wins, And I don't know why. 71 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 3: How do you find working with a lot of your 72 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: staff who are from what I would observe like a 73 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: generation younger than you. Is that fair? 74 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? 75 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: Come on, I'm still I'm a millennial. Some of my 76 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: staff and my agent, yeah, the rest of them are 77 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: younger than me. 78 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 3: How do you go with the generation of like people 79 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 3: needing constant praise, constant pats on the back thing. They 80 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 3: need to be told they're doing a good job all 81 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: the time, and they need to celebrate their wins. Do 82 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 3: you find that tricky as a boss coming into them 83 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 3: and needing to pat them on the back for everything. 84 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think if you really want to go 85 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: deep with this, Tommy, which we're obviously not going to 86 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: because this is a bonus episode and we don't have 87 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,679 Speaker 1: two hours, but I think a lot of that s 88 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: I think a lot of that would come from like 89 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: the way that I was raised and how I've never 90 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: had someone patting me on the back saying good job. 91 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 2: Therefore, that's why. 92 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: I think I'm not like an emotional person. And the 93 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: way that we obviously celebrate our staff is in a 94 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: multitude of ways, like number one, putting great managers in place, 95 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: because you know, we have over sixty staff now, so 96 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: I can't solely be the one that's going around to 97 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: every single person being like, good job today, because that 98 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: would be a full time job in itself, but doing 99 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: special things with our staff, throwing great like networking days 100 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: and events. So we've got some Christmas parties coming up, 101 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: all those little things. I definitely am always mindful of 102 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: wanting to show my appreciation in that way, But when 103 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: you aren't a overly emotional person, that's actually really hard 104 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: to do. But I also don't I think it's hard 105 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: to expect for your boss to be able to do 106 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: all of the things. And I've heard people say before 107 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: you can't be like the world's best manager and the 108 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: world's best entrepreneur. 109 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 3: That's very fair. 110 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, something that you forgot to mention, and it's something 111 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 4: that we do here on this podcast, but you also 112 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 4: do in your business. 113 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: Oh. 114 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 2: The Winds Folder, so Jess. 115 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 4: For some contexts. We have on our Milliner page, which 116 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 4: is a program we used to do all our organizing, 117 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: we have a little section called the Winds Folder, and 118 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 4: it's just a little section where we throw in any 119 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 4: articles written about us, like any big achievements, like if 120 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 4: the podcast has gone number one on the charts for 121 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 4: a week. We throw all that information in there. So 122 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 4: we basically just add it to the Winds folder. So 123 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 4: it's something that we can always go back to and 124 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 4: kind of celebrate in our own way. 125 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: And we have that with all of our staff, like 126 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: they have a wins folder, and they know that whenever 127 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: something great happens, like even if it's just a good 128 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: review or like a reply to an email where someone's like, 129 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: thank you so much for everything you've done. So our 130 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: staff know to put their wins in their wins folders 131 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: so that we can when we get together, let's say, 132 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 1: like every quarter or whatever, like everyone can go through 133 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 1: their biggest wins, but I don't. 134 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 2: Oh, we've got one for the pod, but I don't 135 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 2: have one for myself. 136 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 4: A bit funny if you just had your own little secret. 137 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 3: But I guess realistically, the pod and all your stuff 138 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 3: wins folder, that's my wins too. 139 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: Absolutely. 140 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: But to answer like your main question, like I don't 141 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: think I celebrate the wins, but then again, like I 142 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 1: feel like I don't need to because I feel like 143 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: I'm winning every day. I know that sounds really cheesy, 144 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: but I feel like I'm winning every day because I 145 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: get to wake up every day and like love what 146 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: I do. And I have never in the whole history 147 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: of fate for seven years now, I've never woken up 148 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: once and thought, fuck, I don't want to go to 149 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 1: work today. 150 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 2: Like I've never had that feeling. 151 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: And that is a win in itself, Like I feel 152 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: like I've won in life, but I do need to 153 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: celebrate the wins more. 154 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 2: But also, I mean I could talk about. 155 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: This for hours, like you feel like a wanker celebrating yourself. 156 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 3: But I feel like this generation is becoming better at 157 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 3: accepting people for going, Hey I just did X, Y 158 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 3: Z and everyone's like that's awesome.

Yeah, besides going out for dinner and renovating. 191 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 3: The house, I think just taking note of everything you've achieved, 192 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 3: and really that's all that's more important than dinners or 193 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: renovating your house, Like just actually owning what you've done 194 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 3: and taking time to acknowledge that. But I feel like 195 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 3: you're someone that works really hard all the time and 196 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 3: you probably don't slow down to go. 197 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: Sometimes I have those moments, and I will say them 198 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: when those moments come to me.

I 224 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 3: know you work, both you and AJ both work full 225 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 3: time in the business. Any tips or advice for how 226 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 3: we navigate. 227 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 2: That, yep? 228 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: I would say, find out what both of your strengths 229 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: are and make sure those things. 230 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 2: Are completely different. 231 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: Okay if they can be, or find your strengths that 232 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: are different, because I think it would be. And again 233 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: I can't speak from experience, but obviously AJ and I 234 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: have different skills that are like completely opposite. 235 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: He's more of the logical person. 236 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: I'm the creative that's going to go out there and 237 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: move the business forward, and he's the one on the 238 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: back end making sure it doesn't crumble. So those are 239 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 1: our two different strengths, and I can only imagine it 240 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 1: would be a lot more tricky to work with AJ 241 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: if his strength was the same as mine. 242 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 2: If he's trying to. 243 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 3: Give you advice on how to edit a video. 244 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, or if he was wanting to be this, I mean, 245 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 1: we put him in the content because everyone loves him, 246 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: But if he wanted to do it, do exactly what 247 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: I would. I could see working on top of one 248 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 1: another and it may be causing conflict. So I would 249 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: say for you and Maddie, if you are going to 250 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: be wanting to work together more, is just like find 251 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: both of your strengths and just find a good balance 252 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: between the both of you so that you aren't in 253 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: each other's pocket. 254 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: Twenty four to seven. I think that's really important. 255 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 3: Do you find it easy to separate work and then 256 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 3: relationship time? Like does work crossover in when we're going 257 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 3: out for dinner when we're sitting on the couch. 258 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: Nah, Like yes and no, But again like I don't 259 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: feel like we feel like we don't work. Yeah, Okay, 260 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: So if we go out for dinner and something comes 261 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: up about the day, we'll just chat about it. We're 262 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: not like, oh, let's talk about work quickly and talk 263 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: about all these problems like it will just naturally come 264 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: into our conversation. But I think it's all about just 265 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: finding that balance with one another and finding those separate 266 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: strengths rather than both doing the exact same thing in 267 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: the business, which I know is hard for you because 268 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 1: you are kind of doing the same job. 269 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're both creatives that kind of think that way. 270 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 3: Maybe I'll get Maddy to do some courses and Excel 271 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 3: spreadsheets and can. 272 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: Become the account But yeah, I think it's just important, 273 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: like life in any relationship, is to find that balance 274 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: if you are going to be working together and try 275 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: to do separate roles rather than being on top of 276 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: each other twenty four to seven. Because the last thing 277 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: you want to be doing is like having arguments in 278 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: your business that's in your relationship, Yeah, because that wouldn't 279 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: be fun. 280 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's my advice to. 281 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 3: You, beautiful. 282 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 2: Thank you, well, thanks for being here.
