Welcome back to She Rises with your 10 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,801 Speaker 2: favorite hosts. Ashi and Tiana are back for a Wednesday episode, 11 00:00:36,841 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 2: and today we are talking all about money and why 12 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,321 Speaker 2: it's so taboo to talk about it like sex. We 13 00:00:43,361 --> 00:00:45,441 Speaker 2: want to dissolve the shame. We want to have more 14 00:00:45,441 --> 00:00:48,441 Speaker 2: conversations around it. We all love it, we all need it. 15 00:00:48,441 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 2: It's a part of life, so why not talk about it. 16 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 3: We all act like we're not allowed to talk about it. 17 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:53,921 Speaker 1: I know, where did they come from? 18 00:00:53,961 --> 00:00:56,441 Speaker 3: I don't know, but it's so uncomfortable for some people. 19 00:00:56,481 --> 00:01:00,081 Speaker 3: And understandably, yes, it is a resource, right, It is 20 00:01:00,121 --> 00:01:01,881 Speaker 3: a resource that we all rely on and that we 21 00:01:01,921 --> 00:01:04,961 Speaker 3: all need to survive and to contribute and to exist 22 00:01:05,121 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 3: in our reality. So it makes a lot of sense. 23 00:01:07,401 --> 00:01:10,001 Speaker 3: But why is it so uncomfortable to talk about? 24 00:01:10,121 --> 00:01:13,761 Speaker 2: And I'm pretty open to talk about most things, even money, but. 25 00:01:13,761 --> 00:01:14,321 Speaker 1: I won't lie. 26 00:01:14,321 --> 00:01:16,001 Speaker 2: I still get a little bit like, Oh, if someone 27 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,241 Speaker 2: online asked me how much I earn, I'm like, oh, 28 00:01:20,081 --> 00:01:23,161 Speaker 2: I think because I suppose being an online influencer and 29 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,761 Speaker 2: having a business, people are quite triggered by money. So 30 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,481 Speaker 2: if you tell them how much you make, they then 31 00:01:28,521 --> 00:01:30,521 Speaker 2: compare it to how much they make. They feel like 32 00:01:30,521 --> 00:01:33,481 Speaker 2: it's unfair or not right, or they think your privilege 33 00:01:33,521 --> 00:01:35,481 Speaker 2: or they think you're greeding. You get kind of a 34 00:01:35,481 --> 00:01:38,641 Speaker 2: lot of backlash for it how you live. And I 35 00:01:38,721 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: understand that also because I used to feel like that 36 00:01:41,161 --> 00:01:43,561 Speaker 2: when I'd see people with money and being able to 37 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,481 Speaker 2: leave the sextravagant lifestyle or where all the labels are 38 00:01:46,481 --> 00:01:49,201 Speaker 2: do all the things I was sitting in my victims. 39 00:01:49,241 --> 00:01:50,881 Speaker 2: So I would think they were lucky and they were 40 00:01:50,921 --> 00:01:52,801 Speaker 2: selfish in this which should be more generous, and they 41 00:01:52,881 --> 00:01:55,601 Speaker 2: used to project so much onto them. So I see 42 00:01:55,961 --> 00:01:58,041 Speaker 2: why people don't share that information and why they get 43 00:01:58,081 --> 00:02:01,001 Speaker 2: uncomfortable around it. And it's also uncomfortable too, Like I've 44 00:02:01,001 --> 00:02:04,001 Speaker 2: got a friend who is very, very wealthy, and she 45 00:02:04,001 --> 00:02:07,041 Speaker 2: gets uncomfortable talk about it because she doesn't know who 46 00:02:07,161 --> 00:02:09,681 Speaker 2: likes her for her and who wants what she has 47 00:02:09,801 --> 00:02:12,521 Speaker 2: and what she can give, and she's quite generous. So 48 00:02:12,921 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 2: there's so many layers to it. But we wanted to 49 00:02:15,481 --> 00:02:18,481 Speaker 2: kind of debunk a little bit of this whole conversation 50 00:02:18,601 --> 00:02:20,121 Speaker 2: and make it a bit more comfortable. So we've got 51 00:02:20,121 --> 00:02:21,841 Speaker 2: a few points that we want to talk about. Yeah, 52 00:02:22,041 --> 00:02:25,441 Speaker 2: one thing I find really interesting online is the influencer 53 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,121 Speaker 2: marketing world. I see so many tiktoks and people getting 54 00:02:29,161 --> 00:02:32,001 Speaker 2: so triggered with how much influencers earn. But what they 55 00:02:32,001 --> 00:02:34,601 Speaker 2: don't see, and it's not always the case. It's a gamble. 56 00:02:34,721 --> 00:02:36,841 Speaker 2: Any type of marketing is actually a gamble. Whether you 57 00:02:36,841 --> 00:02:39,361 Speaker 2: spend your money on Facebook ads, Google ads, snapcha ads, 58 00:02:39,641 --> 00:02:43,361 Speaker 2: TikTok ads, influencers, UGC created, like whatever you spend your 59 00:02:43,361 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 2: money on Billboard advertising, radio, TV. It's all a risk. 60 00:02:47,081 --> 00:02:48,801 Speaker 2: You don't know what's going to convert or what's going 61 00:02:48,881 --> 00:02:51,561 Speaker 2: to give you great brand awareness. But people get so 62 00:02:51,921 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 2: upset when they know how much influencers charge and make, 63 00:02:55,361 --> 00:02:57,321 Speaker 2: But what they don't realize is that it's a win 64 00:02:57,401 --> 00:02:59,681 Speaker 2: win most of the time for the brand and for 65 00:02:59,721 --> 00:03:02,761 Speaker 2: the influencer, and influencing is a job. I know people 66 00:03:02,761 --> 00:03:06,081 Speaker 2: are in denial that it's not, but it is. For example, 67 00:03:06,361 --> 00:03:08,401 Speaker 2: I once promoted a brand. I won't say what the 68 00:03:08,441 --> 00:03:11,721 Speaker 2: brand is, it was a product and I got paid 69 00:03:11,841 --> 00:03:13,841 Speaker 2: I think it was fifteen thousand dollars to do a 70 00:03:13,881 --> 00:03:16,921 Speaker 2: set of stories, a set of Snapchat And they've paid 71 00:03:16,921 --> 00:03:18,481 Speaker 2: that and I made them one hundred and twenty three 72 00:03:18,481 --> 00:03:19,041 Speaker 2: thousand dollars. 73 00:03:19,161 --> 00:03:19,441 Speaker 3: Wow. 74 00:03:20,001 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 2: So yeah, to spend that, that's a great return on investment. Absolutely, 75 00:03:24,001 --> 00:03:25,561 Speaker 2: it's a win win for them. Yeah, it's a win 76 00:03:25,601 --> 00:03:28,761 Speaker 2: win for me. It works, but people get really upset 77 00:03:28,761 --> 00:03:30,881 Speaker 2: with it. But I can also see why because for 78 00:03:30,921 --> 00:03:32,801 Speaker 2: me to get paid that just to talk about a 79 00:03:32,841 --> 00:03:36,041 Speaker 2: product and what it takes most people to earn in 80 00:03:36,081 --> 00:03:39,041 Speaker 2: their everyday life, Like that's a wage for ten weeks 81 00:03:39,081 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 2: or twenty weeks for someone. Yeah, I can totally see 82 00:03:41,721 --> 00:03:42,841 Speaker 2: why that would trip with someone. 83 00:03:43,041 --> 00:03:46,001 Speaker 3: That's the contrast is like people are looking at that. 84 00:03:46,281 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 3: They're looking at, Okay, what does a nine to five 85 00:03:48,321 --> 00:03:51,401 Speaker 3: technically make? What's the average wage that people are making 86 00:03:51,561 --> 00:03:54,361 Speaker 3: versus that amount of money? And maybe that's the triggering 87 00:03:54,401 --> 00:03:56,361 Speaker 3: part of it, is like, one, I don't have that 88 00:03:56,401 --> 00:03:59,201 Speaker 3: opportunity to it would take me X amount of time 89 00:03:59,241 --> 00:04:00,721 Speaker 3: for me to make that amount of money. I had 90 00:04:00,761 --> 00:04:03,201 Speaker 3: three like fuck you for having more freedom than me. 91 00:04:03,481 --> 00:04:06,881 Speaker 2: And I also see view of a teacher or a 92 00:04:06,961 --> 00:04:09,841 Speaker 2: nurse or someone who's doing a job like that they 93 00:04:09,841 --> 00:04:10,721 Speaker 2: don't get paid enough. 94 00:04:10,841 --> 00:04:12,281 Speaker 1: No, it doesn't feel fair. 95 00:04:12,441 --> 00:04:14,161 Speaker 2: Even I had moments of guilt where I was like, 96 00:04:14,201 --> 00:04:16,641 Speaker 2: it doesn't feel fair that I get to earn this 97 00:04:16,721 --> 00:04:18,441 Speaker 2: kind of money for doing that. And then a teacher 98 00:04:18,481 --> 00:04:20,481 Speaker 2: goes and works her ass off or his ass off 99 00:04:20,841 --> 00:04:22,721 Speaker 2: teaching kids and being with them all day every day, 100 00:04:22,721 --> 00:04:24,361 Speaker 2: and it's such an important job, Like I don't think 101 00:04:24,361 --> 00:04:27,601 Speaker 2: they get paid enough. Yeah, so I can really understand. 102 00:04:27,201 --> 00:04:30,481 Speaker 3: Yeah, or nurses being Yeah, nurses being personally underpaid for 103 00:04:30,521 --> 00:04:33,041 Speaker 3: what they do and how they support people and how 104 00:04:33,081 --> 00:04:36,001 Speaker 3: many import their role is, Oh, how many patients they 105 00:04:36,041 --> 00:04:38,361 Speaker 3: we have to look after per nurse as well when 106 00:04:38,361 --> 00:04:40,361 Speaker 3: they're on on June's crazy. 107 00:04:40,561 --> 00:04:41,601 Speaker 1: Even like a bus driver. 108 00:04:41,721 --> 00:04:43,961 Speaker 2: I know it sounds silly, but a bush driver, they 109 00:04:44,001 --> 00:04:48,241 Speaker 2: are driving your children, getting them safely from A to 110 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,521 Speaker 2: B every single day. Yeah, I don't think they get 111 00:04:50,521 --> 00:04:53,121 Speaker 2: paid enough. Yeah, it's crazy. So I get why this 112 00:04:53,201 --> 00:04:56,881 Speaker 2: conversation can be uncomfortable, however, like it is what it is. 113 00:04:57,081 --> 00:04:58,161 Speaker 1: Yeah, And from. 114 00:04:58,041 --> 00:05:00,561 Speaker 2: A marketer's point of view, influencers are a great way 115 00:05:00,601 --> 00:05:03,081 Speaker 2: to blow up your business. We've seen it many times before. 116 00:05:03,081 --> 00:05:05,801 Speaker 2: When influence posts for a brand, the business blows up. 117 00:05:05,801 --> 00:05:07,881 Speaker 2: If that was your brand and you had someone quote 118 00:05:07,961 --> 00:05:09,801 Speaker 2: unquote Instagram famous who blew. 119 00:05:09,561 --> 00:05:11,561 Speaker 3: Your brand up, you'd be stoked. Yeah, I wouldn't care 120 00:05:11,561 --> 00:05:12,281 Speaker 3: how much you're paying them. 121 00:05:12,641 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: A Goldcrase influence who charges like forty thousand dollars at 122 00:05:15,121 --> 00:05:16,961 Speaker 2: the moment for a set of stories and that's three 123 00:05:17,041 --> 00:05:20,241 Speaker 2: sixty second frames, which sounds crazy, Yes, but I bet 124 00:05:20,241 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: her return it's probably five. 125 00:05:21,361 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 3: Hundred thousands Yees. Yeah, you've sold out your product. 126 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:24,841 Speaker 1: You're happy. 127 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,481 Speaker 3: I like that you brought that point in because it 128 00:05:26,521 --> 00:05:28,561 Speaker 3: is Most people only focus on one side of it, 129 00:05:28,601 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 3: which is how much influence who is getting paid. Yes, 130 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,521 Speaker 3: it's not just that it's an exchange. 131 00:05:32,761 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: And also I can only speak from my experience and 132 00:05:35,401 --> 00:05:38,081 Speaker 2: everyone's different. But what people forget too is I've been 133 00:05:38,121 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: online for fifteen years, right, This isn't just a quick 134 00:05:40,681 --> 00:05:44,041 Speaker 2: fifteen k. Yes, it sounds quick, but every single day 135 00:05:44,081 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: for fifteen years, I have showed up not getting paid, 136 00:05:47,201 --> 00:05:49,561 Speaker 2: to share my life, to be vulnerable, to share my lessons, 137 00:05:49,561 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 2: to connect, to build a community. I've put that effort 138 00:05:52,201 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 2: in every single day for fifteen years. And I'm not 139 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,681 Speaker 2: saying it's a hard job. I'm not going to sit 140 00:05:56,761 --> 00:05:59,041 Speaker 2: on here and say influencing hard because it's fucking not. Yeah, 141 00:05:59,081 --> 00:06:01,601 Speaker 2: it's a great job. It's pretty easy. It's a lot 142 00:06:01,641 --> 00:06:04,161 Speaker 2: of energy, but it's not a hard job. But there 143 00:06:04,201 --> 00:06:07,041 Speaker 2: is still work and energy and effort and sacrifice that 144 00:06:07,081 --> 00:06:08,641 Speaker 2: I put in to be in that position to be 145 00:06:08,721 --> 00:06:09,481 Speaker 2: able to charge that. 146 00:06:09,601 --> 00:06:12,841 Speaker 1: Yeah. So, like everything, there's lots of layers. 147 00:06:12,921 --> 00:06:16,161 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely see everyone's side. 148 00:06:16,081 --> 00:06:16,721 Speaker 1: Yeah to it. 149 00:06:16,921 --> 00:06:18,761 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think money is just one of those things 150 00:06:18,761 --> 00:06:20,961 Speaker 3: that it's a challenging topic for people to talk about 151 00:06:21,001 --> 00:06:24,641 Speaker 3: because everyone is such in different places with their relationship 152 00:06:24,641 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 3: with money, whether that be the way that they were 153 00:06:26,521 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 3: raised with money, what they were taught from their parents, 154 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,361 Speaker 3: beliefs around it, their beliefs around it, you know, what 155 00:06:31,401 --> 00:06:35,001 Speaker 3: opportunities they've been exposed to up until now, and how 156 00:06:35,081 --> 00:06:37,561 Speaker 3: they continue to choose to see money. So it's like 157 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 3: everyone is such on a different wavelength when it comes 158 00:06:40,161 --> 00:06:42,401 Speaker 3: to that. So it's like it is a harder conversation 159 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,121 Speaker 3: to have with people because you don't know where people 160 00:06:44,161 --> 00:06:47,201 Speaker 3: sit with it, and it's almost like this unspoken agreement 161 00:06:47,241 --> 00:06:48,801 Speaker 3: where people are like, Oh, don't want to bring this 162 00:06:48,841 --> 00:06:50,801 Speaker 3: conversation in because I don't know what this person's belief 163 00:06:50,841 --> 00:06:53,561 Speaker 3: around money is if they're going to accept me for mine. 164 00:06:53,921 --> 00:06:56,241 Speaker 3: You know, let's say if somebody has like a more expansive, 165 00:06:56,281 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 3: more abundant mindset around money versus them having a conversation 166 00:06:59,681 --> 00:07:02,041 Speaker 3: with somebody who's still in lack around money. Yeah, you know, 167 00:07:02,121 --> 00:07:04,321 Speaker 3: it's like that's also going to create disconnect between the 168 00:07:04,361 --> 00:07:06,801 Speaker 3: relationship and makes it hard to connect with that person 169 00:07:07,561 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 3: because of those projections. 170 00:07:09,001 --> 00:07:11,001 Speaker 2: There's a lot of projections to get thrown around money. 171 00:07:11,121 --> 00:07:12,841 Speaker 2: I've had it from a family member too, like, Oh, 172 00:07:12,921 --> 00:07:14,801 Speaker 2: that's easy for you to say you've got lots of money. 173 00:07:15,441 --> 00:07:18,521 Speaker 2: I'm like, but I've also worked since I was thirteen 174 00:07:18,561 --> 00:07:21,281 Speaker 2: years old. Yeah, I've literally been a little hustler since 175 00:07:21,321 --> 00:07:23,201 Speaker 2: I was I wasn't even legally allowed to work at 176 00:07:23,241 --> 00:07:25,161 Speaker 2: thirteen years old, but I did. You had to be 177 00:07:25,201 --> 00:07:27,281 Speaker 2: fourteen and nine months, you bet you. When I got 178 00:07:27,281 --> 00:07:29,361 Speaker 2: off at a doll with thirteen and killing potatoes, I 179 00:07:29,401 --> 00:07:31,721 Speaker 2: took it. She's taken it. I took it again, hustling 180 00:07:31,761 --> 00:07:34,161 Speaker 2: since I was thirteen. Where I am right now is 181 00:07:34,201 --> 00:07:36,441 Speaker 2: not luck. I was not born into money. It was 182 00:07:36,481 --> 00:07:39,201 Speaker 2: not given anything. I worked my ass off, I sacrificed 183 00:07:39,201 --> 00:07:41,361 Speaker 2: so much, and I refused to. 184 00:07:41,281 --> 00:07:42,481 Speaker 1: Live how my parents lived. 185 00:07:42,721 --> 00:07:44,681 Speaker 2: I saw how they lived, I saw how we grew up, 186 00:07:44,721 --> 00:07:48,401 Speaker 2: always poor, knock being able to do things, struggling parents 187 00:07:48,481 --> 00:07:50,441 Speaker 2: arguing over money. I just did not want that life 188 00:07:50,441 --> 00:07:53,041 Speaker 2: for myself, for my kids, and I was determined to 189 00:07:53,041 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 2: do whatever I needed to do to make that happen. 190 00:07:56,321 --> 00:07:57,801 Speaker 2: That's lending me where I am right now. 191 00:07:57,961 --> 00:07:59,561 Speaker 3: So what's a piece of advice that you would give 192 00:07:59,561 --> 00:08:02,721 Speaker 3: to somebody who might still have some negative beliefs around 193 00:08:02,721 --> 00:08:05,681 Speaker 3: mine that may feel victimy or a bit lack or 194 00:08:05,681 --> 00:08:08,441 Speaker 3: make them feel disempowered by money? Lots of he's of 195 00:08:08,441 --> 00:08:09,401 Speaker 3: advice that you would give. 196 00:08:09,281 --> 00:08:11,241 Speaker 2: Them that it doesn't have to be like that. And 197 00:08:11,321 --> 00:08:13,681 Speaker 2: I know that sounds easier than done, because I used 198 00:08:13,681 --> 00:08:16,041 Speaker 2: to think like that too. My belief was that I 199 00:08:16,041 --> 00:08:17,841 Speaker 2: will always be poor, no one will ever loved me. 200 00:08:17,881 --> 00:08:19,761 Speaker 2: I'm not smart enough to make money. People are lucky, 201 00:08:19,801 --> 00:08:21,641 Speaker 2: people get handed it, but it's not the truth. And 202 00:08:21,681 --> 00:08:24,641 Speaker 2: if you honestly believe that and you keep telling yourself that, 203 00:08:24,641 --> 00:08:27,681 Speaker 2: that'll be your reality. Yeah, it will not change. Whether 204 00:08:27,721 --> 00:08:30,041 Speaker 2: you think you can or you think you can't. You 205 00:08:30,081 --> 00:08:33,841 Speaker 2: are one hundred percent right. I had to push that belief, 206 00:08:33,881 --> 00:08:35,961 Speaker 2: and I had to prove to myself and I had 207 00:08:36,001 --> 00:08:39,521 Speaker 2: to break through that limiting belief that I could never. 208 00:08:39,841 --> 00:08:42,161 Speaker 1: Earn a certain amount. And it was hard. Yeah, it 209 00:08:42,201 --> 00:08:43,121 Speaker 1: was fucking hard. 210 00:08:43,121 --> 00:08:45,281 Speaker 2: And even now when I go through harder times with money, 211 00:08:45,321 --> 00:08:47,961 Speaker 2: your finances dip in and out, it's so easy for 212 00:08:48,001 --> 00:08:50,601 Speaker 2: me to have that old story pop up. Of course, 213 00:08:50,681 --> 00:08:52,881 Speaker 2: like you're not worthy of that, yeah, or like, of 214 00:08:52,921 --> 00:08:55,281 Speaker 2: course that wasn't gonna last, or you were silly with 215 00:08:55,321 --> 00:08:55,761 Speaker 2: your money. 216 00:08:55,801 --> 00:08:57,321 Speaker 1: There's so many little stories that pop up. 217 00:08:57,241 --> 00:09:00,081 Speaker 3: So many Yeah, and money is energy. 218 00:09:00,081 --> 00:09:02,761 Speaker 2: It comes and goes. I truly believe it comes and goes. 219 00:09:02,761 --> 00:09:04,721 Speaker 2: But just yeah, be aware of the stories that you're 220 00:09:04,761 --> 00:09:08,001 Speaker 2: telling because they will become your truth. And only you 221 00:09:08,001 --> 00:09:10,121 Speaker 2: were in control of that. No one else is not 222 00:09:10,161 --> 00:09:12,681 Speaker 2: your partner, not your parents, no one else, only you, 223 00:09:13,241 --> 00:09:15,201 Speaker 2: And like, be the black sheep of the family, Be 224 00:09:15,281 --> 00:09:18,281 Speaker 2: the person that proves everyone wrong, including yourself. Like show 225 00:09:18,321 --> 00:09:21,561 Speaker 2: yourself that you can. It's hard too, it's trial and error. 226 00:09:21,641 --> 00:09:24,161 Speaker 2: Like three businesses I've tried. I got so much shit 227 00:09:24,201 --> 00:09:26,601 Speaker 2: online for failed businesses or things that haven't worked out 228 00:09:26,681 --> 00:09:29,521 Speaker 2: have me changing my mind. But if I didn't, I 229 00:09:29,561 --> 00:09:31,521 Speaker 2: would literally still be working in a retail shop in 230 00:09:31,561 --> 00:09:33,561 Speaker 2: a job that I hated if I didn't take a risk. Yeah, 231 00:09:33,721 --> 00:09:36,321 Speaker 2: take risks, try things if they don't work out. It's 232 00:09:36,361 --> 00:09:38,641 Speaker 2: like that guy, you know his name, He owns that 233 00:09:38,761 --> 00:09:40,361 Speaker 2: utie brand, David someone. 234 00:09:40,441 --> 00:09:42,721 Speaker 3: Oh I'm not sure. Oh no Uddie's, but yeah, well 235 00:09:42,761 --> 00:09:43,361 Speaker 3: the owner of that. 236 00:09:43,441 --> 00:09:46,521 Speaker 2: He's on Shark Tank. He is multi millionaire. He's investing 237 00:09:46,561 --> 00:09:49,041 Speaker 2: other businesses now. But his story is so cool. Like 238 00:09:49,121 --> 00:09:51,801 Speaker 2: he started a clothing brand, he started a kebab shop, 239 00:09:52,321 --> 00:09:54,641 Speaker 2: he did another little product and they all flopped and 240 00:09:54,681 --> 00:09:56,441 Speaker 2: didn't do well, and then he did Udie and now 241 00:09:56,441 --> 00:09:58,081 Speaker 2: he's got all these other brands and businesses, and he 242 00:09:58,161 --> 00:10:00,961 Speaker 2: was on Shark Tank investing and coaching people. And it's 243 00:10:00,961 --> 00:10:04,121 Speaker 2: so cool to see all his quote unquote failures to 244 00:10:04,121 --> 00:10:06,161 Speaker 2: get to where he is now. All of those failures 245 00:10:06,641 --> 00:10:08,801 Speaker 2: taught him the most valuable lessons that have now made 246 00:10:08,841 --> 00:10:09,961 Speaker 2: already so successful. 247 00:10:10,121 --> 00:10:11,081 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's so cool. 248 00:10:11,081 --> 00:10:12,961 Speaker 2: We'll trust the process. You're not just going to get 249 00:10:12,961 --> 00:10:14,881 Speaker 2: it overnight. You're probably going to go through quite a 250 00:10:14,881 --> 00:10:17,441 Speaker 2: lot of values and you're okay. To fail doesn't define 251 00:10:17,441 --> 00:10:20,201 Speaker 2: who you are, doesn't define your outcome. It's how you 252 00:10:20,201 --> 00:10:22,201 Speaker 2: get back up and take those lessons moving forward. 253 00:10:22,321 --> 00:10:24,961 Speaker 3: Yeah. I love that. It's a challenging thing as well, 254 00:10:25,001 --> 00:10:26,921 Speaker 3: because I think, I mean, at least in my own experience, 255 00:10:27,081 --> 00:10:29,921 Speaker 3: it's easy to get disempowered by the self doubt when 256 00:10:29,961 --> 00:10:32,041 Speaker 3: you're in a low like what you said, when finances deep, 257 00:10:32,201 --> 00:10:34,761 Speaker 3: or you know, you overspend and then you're like shit, oh, 258 00:10:34,921 --> 00:10:37,761 Speaker 3: like put myself backwards, or you know, like damn, why 259 00:10:37,761 --> 00:10:39,521 Speaker 3: did I do that? Or maybe I have a not 260 00:10:39,601 --> 00:10:42,241 Speaker 3: a good relationship with money and I overspend in all 261 00:10:42,241 --> 00:10:44,321 Speaker 3: the things, or whatever it is. But it's easy to 262 00:10:44,321 --> 00:10:46,361 Speaker 3: be disempowered in those moments that go, oh shit, it's 263 00:10:46,361 --> 00:10:49,641 Speaker 3: not working, you know. I think that's the challenging thing 264 00:10:49,641 --> 00:10:51,761 Speaker 3: about money. At least have been in my experience has 265 00:10:51,801 --> 00:10:54,361 Speaker 3: been being able to keep the momentum going and keep 266 00:10:54,401 --> 00:10:57,601 Speaker 3: the mindset, my mindset strong, even when things in my 267 00:10:57,641 --> 00:11:00,641 Speaker 3: external reality are changing. You know, like if I change 268 00:11:00,641 --> 00:11:02,961 Speaker 3: something in my business and I go from like programs 269 00:11:02,961 --> 00:11:04,201 Speaker 3: to one on one or whatever, and I have an 270 00:11:04,241 --> 00:11:08,521 Speaker 3: income depah, so vice versa. It's like holding my energy 271 00:11:08,521 --> 00:11:10,481 Speaker 3: and making sure that I'm okay and I'm not mentally 272 00:11:10,521 --> 00:11:12,601 Speaker 3: spiraling and being like, oh, this means that it's not 273 00:11:12,641 --> 00:11:15,721 Speaker 3: working or it's failing, or you know, like writing with 274 00:11:15,761 --> 00:11:18,481 Speaker 3: those stories that come up from like old beliefs. Yes, 275 00:11:18,761 --> 00:11:20,921 Speaker 3: you know, I can definitely resonate with you what you 276 00:11:21,001 --> 00:11:23,801 Speaker 3: said around like, oh, I'm not smart enough, I'm not capable, 277 00:11:23,801 --> 00:11:26,241 Speaker 3: And I definitely feel like I've been battling that story 278 00:11:26,441 --> 00:11:29,481 Speaker 3: my whole life and I still battle it now, you know. 279 00:11:29,681 --> 00:11:32,921 Speaker 3: But it's like choosing the actions that I'm taking to 280 00:11:33,201 --> 00:11:36,321 Speaker 3: create money as a resource that's supportive and helps me 281 00:11:36,401 --> 00:11:39,081 Speaker 3: and wants to see me win, and you know, is 282 00:11:39,081 --> 00:11:42,161 Speaker 3: something that I can use for good and not the 283 00:11:42,201 --> 00:11:43,961 Speaker 3: stories of like oh I'm not capable of doing this, 284 00:11:44,081 --> 00:11:47,001 Speaker 3: or I can't create the resource of money, or I 285 00:11:47,041 --> 00:11:49,881 Speaker 3: can't be one of those people who have abundance with money. 286 00:11:50,081 --> 00:11:52,041 Speaker 3: You know. It's really being willing to be like no, 287 00:11:52,401 --> 00:11:54,761 Speaker 3: like I'm not choosing to believe this. I don't want 288 00:11:54,801 --> 00:11:55,841 Speaker 3: this story to be mine. 289 00:11:56,241 --> 00:11:58,481 Speaker 2: We can get so attached to stories and I'll speak 290 00:11:58,481 --> 00:12:01,801 Speaker 2: on like a business sense too. When our sales are 291 00:12:01,841 --> 00:12:03,921 Speaker 2: lower and hide away, it's very easy to go into 292 00:12:03,961 --> 00:12:07,361 Speaker 2: a story of like, oh, it's because the interest is raised. 293 00:12:07,441 --> 00:12:09,121 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh it's because of Covid. 294 00:12:09,321 --> 00:12:11,441 Speaker 2: Oh it's because we're not on sale and all the 295 00:12:11,481 --> 00:12:14,121 Speaker 2: other brands are on sale right now. It's because everyone's 296 00:12:14,121 --> 00:12:16,801 Speaker 2: struggling financially. Yes, and Steve and I will have those 297 00:12:16,841 --> 00:12:18,921 Speaker 2: moments are like, oh is it that it could be? 298 00:12:19,521 --> 00:12:21,601 Speaker 2: But there's also brands that are absolutely killing it. So 299 00:12:21,681 --> 00:12:23,761 Speaker 2: what can we do? What is in our control? I'm 300 00:12:23,801 --> 00:12:25,321 Speaker 2: not going to just sink to that story about oh 301 00:12:25,481 --> 00:12:27,841 Speaker 2: poor us, It's just this is happening. It's like what 302 00:12:27,841 --> 00:12:30,681 Speaker 2: can I do more of? And being in that mindset 303 00:12:30,681 --> 00:12:34,321 Speaker 2: of always like thinking outside the box? What can you do? Yeah, 304 00:12:34,481 --> 00:12:36,041 Speaker 2: don't sit in the victim of that's just how it 305 00:12:36,081 --> 00:12:37,321 Speaker 2: has to be, because that's not the truth. 306 00:12:37,361 --> 00:12:39,721 Speaker 3: That's such a good perspective to always be looking for 307 00:12:39,761 --> 00:12:41,041 Speaker 3: what you can do and what you can. 308 00:12:41,081 --> 00:12:42,161 Speaker 1: Control, all that you can do. 309 00:12:42,281 --> 00:12:44,841 Speaker 3: Yeah, always because there's always something to blame as well. 310 00:12:44,881 --> 00:12:45,641 Speaker 1: It keeps you still. 311 00:12:45,961 --> 00:12:48,321 Speaker 2: You won't make progress forward if you just blame everyone 312 00:12:48,361 --> 00:12:50,681 Speaker 2: and everything else for why your business isn't working. 313 00:12:50,801 --> 00:12:51,601 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think. 314 00:12:51,441 --> 00:12:54,841 Speaker 2: Something to be super aware of is old conditioning. I 315 00:12:54,841 --> 00:12:56,441 Speaker 2: think our parents can play a big role, and not 316 00:12:56,481 --> 00:12:58,521 Speaker 2: to blame, but just the comments they would make growing up. 317 00:12:58,801 --> 00:12:59,961 Speaker 1: I've set it to tage before. 318 00:13:00,001 --> 00:13:02,001 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I swear i'd never say that, but 319 00:13:02,441 --> 00:13:05,841 Speaker 2: comments like money doesn't grow on trees, or to make 320 00:13:05,881 --> 00:13:08,561 Speaker 2: good money you have to sacrifice everything. Yeah, but it's like, 321 00:13:08,561 --> 00:13:11,921 Speaker 2: we can't afford that, and why money doesn't have to 322 00:13:12,121 --> 00:13:15,361 Speaker 2: be like that. Yes, I think there's seasons where you 323 00:13:15,361 --> 00:13:17,441 Speaker 2: have to put your head down, bum up, But I 324 00:13:17,521 --> 00:13:19,601 Speaker 2: don't like falling into the narrative that it has to 325 00:13:19,641 --> 00:13:21,921 Speaker 2: be blood, sweat and tears to have a good life 326 00:13:22,041 --> 00:13:25,841 Speaker 2: you have to sacrifice everything. Sometimes about working smarter, not 327 00:13:25,881 --> 00:13:29,081 Speaker 2: necessarily harder, and working hard sometimes I'm like, are you 328 00:13:29,121 --> 00:13:31,721 Speaker 2: productive with your time? Yeah, there's so many things to 329 00:13:31,721 --> 00:13:33,241 Speaker 2: look at, There's so many things to look at. 330 00:13:33,481 --> 00:13:35,601 Speaker 3: It's so true what you tell yourself you are one 331 00:13:35,681 --> 00:13:38,641 Speaker 3: hundred percent right. Yeah, And that story what I've witnessed 332 00:13:38,641 --> 00:13:40,641 Speaker 3: in people. And also because I watched my dad sacrifice 333 00:13:40,681 --> 00:13:43,721 Speaker 3: a lot growing up and always working hard and always 334 00:13:43,761 --> 00:13:45,841 Speaker 3: sacrificing in all of the things and all I've also 335 00:13:45,841 --> 00:13:48,961 Speaker 3: seen this in intimate partners too, of having the story 336 00:13:49,041 --> 00:13:51,241 Speaker 3: that you have to sacrifice everything, it has to be 337 00:13:51,281 --> 00:13:54,681 Speaker 3: excruciating in the process, and it's like, of course, like 338 00:13:54,681 --> 00:13:56,601 Speaker 3: a fun journey, you're only going to feel like you're 339 00:13:56,641 --> 00:13:59,281 Speaker 3: being productive and doing things if it feels excruciating, and 340 00:13:59,321 --> 00:14:01,561 Speaker 3: then you have to live in that story and that 341 00:14:01,681 --> 00:14:03,361 Speaker 3: just doesn't feel like the way that I want to go, 342 00:14:03,521 --> 00:14:05,841 Speaker 3: you know, and like a belief that I believe that 343 00:14:05,881 --> 00:14:08,441 Speaker 3: I've taken on that I've had to like unlearn and 344 00:14:08,481 --> 00:14:11,121 Speaker 3: still unlearning it now. Is something that my parents used 345 00:14:11,121 --> 00:14:13,121 Speaker 3: to always say, and they say it jokingly and again 346 00:14:13,161 --> 00:14:14,481 Speaker 3: this is news to their ears, so they're going to 347 00:14:14,561 --> 00:14:16,641 Speaker 3: hear this for the first time, but they used to 348 00:14:16,721 --> 00:14:18,681 Speaker 3: have this story. You know, we get to this point 349 00:14:18,721 --> 00:14:20,881 Speaker 3: where we're really struggling. It's really really tough, and you know, 350 00:14:20,921 --> 00:14:22,841 Speaker 3: we're being drip fed through a straw, you know, right 351 00:14:22,881 --> 00:14:25,481 Speaker 3: on the brink of like bankruptcy and like struggling and 352 00:14:25,481 --> 00:14:28,881 Speaker 3: losing everything, and then immediately everything changing in the blink 353 00:14:28,881 --> 00:14:32,681 Speaker 3: of an eye and then going like completely the opposite way, right, So, 354 00:14:32,801 --> 00:14:35,521 Speaker 3: like the joke is, you know, one day we're eating 355 00:14:35,561 --> 00:14:38,361 Speaker 3: lobster and the next we're eating noodles, you know. And 356 00:14:38,521 --> 00:14:40,841 Speaker 3: that has been something that I took on in my 357 00:14:40,961 --> 00:14:44,441 Speaker 3: relationship with money, of going from a big influx of 358 00:14:44,481 --> 00:14:47,561 Speaker 3: money and then fucking being drip fed. And that's something 359 00:14:47,601 --> 00:14:51,161 Speaker 3: that I've had to really consciously unlearn to change my 360 00:14:51,241 --> 00:14:53,681 Speaker 3: belief around money so that I'm not going from like, 361 00:14:53,961 --> 00:14:55,561 Speaker 3: oh my god, this is really good. I'm having a 362 00:14:55,561 --> 00:14:57,721 Speaker 3: really good month through oh my god, what the fuck happened? 363 00:14:57,761 --> 00:15:00,841 Speaker 3: Like I'm eating noodles this month? Being more consistent, being 364 00:15:00,881 --> 00:15:02,121 Speaker 3: more consistent and. 365 00:15:02,121 --> 00:15:05,161 Speaker 1: Having taken control of how that happens. 366 00:15:05,401 --> 00:15:09,401 Speaker 3: And taking control of my behavior, my actions, the choices 367 00:15:09,401 --> 00:15:13,041 Speaker 3: that I make both when I'm being quotations drip fed 368 00:15:13,081 --> 00:15:15,481 Speaker 3: with money versus how I behave when things are really 369 00:15:15,521 --> 00:15:17,561 Speaker 3: really good. And that was something I had to learn 370 00:15:17,601 --> 00:15:19,641 Speaker 3: within myself, because when I got to that point where 371 00:15:19,641 --> 00:15:21,961 Speaker 3: I felt really comfortable, I'd start to overspend. 372 00:15:22,281 --> 00:15:24,401 Speaker 1: Yeah, so maybe not work as hard because you've got 373 00:15:24,401 --> 00:15:25,041 Speaker 1: the money there. 374 00:15:24,961 --> 00:15:26,561 Speaker 3: Yeah, not work as hard. You'd be like, oh, I'm 375 00:15:26,561 --> 00:15:28,361 Speaker 3: feeling a little bit comfortable, feeling it like I've got 376 00:15:28,361 --> 00:15:30,321 Speaker 3: a bit of a cushion. Now, okay, cool, pull back 377 00:15:30,321 --> 00:15:32,161 Speaker 3: the rain. Stop doing the actions that got me to 378 00:15:32,161 --> 00:15:34,201 Speaker 3: that point and then go back to the point and 379 00:15:34,201 --> 00:15:34,881 Speaker 3: then start again. 380 00:15:35,161 --> 00:15:35,441 Speaker 1: Yeah. 381 00:15:35,601 --> 00:15:37,561 Speaker 3: So it was something over the years, especially in my 382 00:15:37,601 --> 00:15:40,401 Speaker 3: coaching business, I've had to really be conscious with and 383 00:15:40,441 --> 00:15:42,441 Speaker 3: it's still something that I have to clock now sometimes. 384 00:15:43,281 --> 00:15:46,281 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so interesting. It's so funny the things our 385 00:15:46,321 --> 00:15:48,201 Speaker 2: parents say and how much they can impact you. Yeah, 386 00:15:48,321 --> 00:15:50,601 Speaker 2: sometimes when I say things atage, I'm like, Ooh, is 387 00:15:50,641 --> 00:15:52,121 Speaker 2: that the right thing to say? Am I going to 388 00:15:52,201 --> 00:15:52,761 Speaker 2: fuck him up? 389 00:15:52,801 --> 00:15:53,201 Speaker 3: Oh? 390 00:15:53,281 --> 00:15:54,481 Speaker 1: What's he going to think of that? It's that going 391 00:15:54,561 --> 00:15:55,521 Speaker 1: to impact him forever? 392 00:15:55,641 --> 00:15:57,921 Speaker 3: But you know what in saying that, like, yes, whilst 393 00:15:57,921 --> 00:15:59,641 Speaker 3: that was something that I was taught and even things 394 00:15:59,641 --> 00:16:02,241 Speaker 3: that you say to tage, they teach us the things 395 00:16:02,241 --> 00:16:02,521 Speaker 3: that we. 396 00:16:02,521 --> 00:16:03,201 Speaker 1: Need to learn. 397 00:16:03,361 --> 00:16:05,881 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I can blame my parents, I don't blame them. 398 00:16:05,961 --> 00:16:08,361 Speaker 3: It's something that exists within me. Yeah, It's not them, 399 00:16:08,401 --> 00:16:11,121 Speaker 3: it's me. And so being able to look at those 400 00:16:11,121 --> 00:16:13,001 Speaker 3: things and go holy shit, like that's something I have 401 00:16:13,081 --> 00:16:16,161 Speaker 3: to take responsibility for is only going to empower me 402 00:16:16,481 --> 00:16:19,001 Speaker 3: and does and continues to do to get me to 403 00:16:19,041 --> 00:16:20,841 Speaker 3: a point where I can actually believe in myself to 404 00:16:20,841 --> 00:16:23,801 Speaker 3: create consistency and a healthy relationship with money. Yes, you know, 405 00:16:23,921 --> 00:16:25,321 Speaker 3: so it's like I can even look at that and go, 406 00:16:25,361 --> 00:16:27,081 Speaker 3: oh my god, fuck, why do you guys do that? 407 00:16:27,121 --> 00:16:29,241 Speaker 3: Why do you guys? Blah blah blah. I feel like 408 00:16:29,241 --> 00:16:31,641 Speaker 3: a victim. But like that doesn't get me anyway. It 409 00:16:31,721 --> 00:16:34,041 Speaker 3: doesn't help me, It doesn't help me move forward. It 410 00:16:34,081 --> 00:16:36,681 Speaker 3: doesn't help you create a relationship with money that's healthy 411 00:16:36,721 --> 00:16:39,161 Speaker 3: and that supports you, and it doesn't make you feel 412 00:16:39,201 --> 00:16:41,721 Speaker 3: like you can do it. So it's just really looking 413 00:16:41,721 --> 00:16:44,841 Speaker 3: at those places where you feel disempowered and go, Okay, 414 00:16:44,841 --> 00:16:47,721 Speaker 3: what about this is making me feel disempowered and what 415 00:16:47,881 --> 00:16:49,961 Speaker 3: is it that I actually can do to move the 416 00:16:50,001 --> 00:16:50,681 Speaker 3: needle forward? 417 00:16:50,881 --> 00:16:51,961 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's cool. 418 00:16:52,401 --> 00:16:55,361 Speaker 2: What do you think about money manifestation because I'm not 419 00:16:55,441 --> 00:16:59,321 Speaker 2: someone that really manifests money manifestation with anything. It's like, 420 00:16:59,361 --> 00:17:01,401 Speaker 2: you can't just say I want a million dollars in 421 00:17:01,441 --> 00:17:03,201 Speaker 2: my bank. I a million dollars in my bank and 422 00:17:03,241 --> 00:17:04,121 Speaker 2: not actually take action. 423 00:17:04,321 --> 00:17:04,521 Speaker 1: Yeah. 424 00:17:04,561 --> 00:17:07,241 Speaker 2: I think it's really important to know that you're worthy 425 00:17:07,241 --> 00:17:08,761 Speaker 2: of the money and to put it out in your 426 00:17:08,881 --> 00:17:11,041 Speaker 2: energetic field and to make plans, but you actually have 427 00:17:11,120 --> 00:17:12,880 Speaker 2: to do the things to get the money in. 428 00:17:13,041 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's like this gray area. 429 00:17:15,441 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 2: People just think they can manifest it by just saying 430 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,041 Speaker 2: affirmations and saying it out loud. 431 00:17:19,241 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 3: Yes, there's an element of getting clear on what it 432 00:17:21,761 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 3: is that you want. 433 00:17:22,561 --> 00:17:24,281 Speaker 1: Clarity is a powerful yes. 434 00:17:24,041 --> 00:17:27,041 Speaker 3: Clarity, right, But if you're not taking action, you're just 435 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 3: going to send your nervous system into a downward spile, 436 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,561 Speaker 3: because you're going to be in that moment of being 437 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 3: drip fed so much that you're like, probably have bills 438 00:17:34,360 --> 00:17:36,041 Speaker 3: to pay, and you're like, oh, it's fine, everything, You'll 439 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:37,961 Speaker 3: be fine. Money will just fall out of fucking thin air, 440 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 3: you know, And the reality is like, when you're struggling 441 00:17:41,321 --> 00:17:43,761 Speaker 3: you have bills to pay, I don't know, Like I 442 00:17:43,761 --> 00:17:46,561 Speaker 3: think like manifestation alone is not enough in those moments. 443 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 3: You have to be willing in those moments where you 444 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 3: have your backup against a wall to fucking figure it 445 00:17:52,041 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 3: out of how you're going to get those bills paid. 446 00:17:54,481 --> 00:17:57,801 Speaker 3: And yes, still have and want the manifestation mindset, but 447 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 3: you have to do the hard work too. And I think, 448 00:18:00,481 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 3: at least for me, those moments have taught me in 449 00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:05,241 Speaker 3: this moment where I'm avoiding hard work and I want 450 00:18:05,241 --> 00:18:07,721 Speaker 3: it to be easy, and I want manifestation to feel easy, 451 00:18:07,721 --> 00:18:10,041 Speaker 3: into money to feel easy. I still have to do 452 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,640 Speaker 3: what is hard, and I still have to implement hard 453 00:18:12,681 --> 00:18:15,001 Speaker 3: work to get where I want to go and do 454 00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:17,441 Speaker 3: things that I don't want to do because I have 455 00:18:17,521 --> 00:18:18,120 Speaker 3: to got to. 456 00:18:18,481 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 1: You have to. 457 00:18:19,321 --> 00:18:20,841 Speaker 3: When you have your backup against the wall, you don't 458 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 3: have a choice. It's so true, Like that's just the 459 00:18:23,201 --> 00:18:25,961 Speaker 3: reality of it. I do think when you move through 460 00:18:26,041 --> 00:18:28,241 Speaker 3: hard work and you're willing to do what is hard, 461 00:18:28,321 --> 00:18:30,561 Speaker 3: I think your mindset around money becomes better. 462 00:18:30,681 --> 00:18:33,041 Speaker 2: It does, and you become more resilient, more resilient, don't 463 00:18:33,041 --> 00:18:35,281 Speaker 2: slip back into the victim of old stories as much so. 464 00:18:35,441 --> 00:18:36,761 Speaker 1: It does move the needle forward. 465 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,321 Speaker 3: And I think because you do that hard work and 466 00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 3: then you create the resource of money, you then go, 467 00:18:42,041 --> 00:18:45,401 Speaker 3: oh wow, I have stability in myself, rely on myself, 468 00:18:45,441 --> 00:18:47,841 Speaker 3: and then your mindset with each level that you do 469 00:18:47,921 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 3: more hard work increases, and then you get to that 470 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 3: point where you're like, money is abundant. I can create it. 471 00:18:53,721 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 3: It's a never ending resource. All that sort of stuff, 472 00:18:56,120 --> 00:18:58,041 Speaker 3: because you know how to create it yourself. 473 00:18:58,041 --> 00:18:58,801 Speaker 1: You've had that evidence. 474 00:18:58,880 --> 00:18:59,521 Speaker 3: You have evidence. 475 00:18:59,561 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: That's really cool. How about you? 476 00:19:00,921 --> 00:19:01,441 Speaker 3: What do you think? 477 00:19:01,961 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 2: I agree everything you said. Yeah, I'm not someone that 478 00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:07,360 Speaker 2: like actively manifest money. I feel like I've got a 479 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,880 Speaker 2: pretty good relationship with money, but sometimes maybe I'm a 480 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,041 Speaker 2: little bit too flowy with it. How do you mean, 481 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,201 Speaker 2: like I could invest more? Yeah, I could learn more 482 00:19:15,241 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 2: about it, but I sometimes it's get a bit content 483 00:19:17,721 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 2: that as long as I can pay my bills and 484 00:19:18,921 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 2: have good time, I'm happy. 485 00:19:20,481 --> 00:19:20,881 Speaker 1: Yeah. 486 00:19:21,281 --> 00:19:23,321 Speaker 3: I love that beautiful place to be. 487 00:19:23,561 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: It is nice.

So 518 00:20:20,961 --> 00:20:23,400 Speaker 2: I've always just been prepared to get my handswered and 519 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,761 Speaker 2: do what I need to do to survive. So it's 520 00:20:25,801 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 2: really served me. I remember being in high school and 521 00:20:27,921 --> 00:20:29,561 Speaker 2: my friends it could just go in their parents' walle 522 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 2: and take money out, and their parents would give them 523 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 2: fifty bucks to go the movies, and I would have 524 00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:35,041 Speaker 2: to go peel potatoes for five dollars an hour to 525 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 2: be able to go and do those things. And he 526 00:20:36,961 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 2: used to just think that sucks, like they're so lucky. 527 00:20:39,561 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 2: My parents never give me money, Like I just I 528 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 2: have to earn every dollar of it and I have 529 00:20:42,721 --> 00:20:45,441 Speaker 2: to save. But now as an adult, I'm like, oh, 530 00:20:45,481 --> 00:20:48,201 Speaker 2: I'm so grateful. Yeah, I'm so grateful because my work 531 00:20:48,281 --> 00:20:52,001 Speaker 2: ethic is so good. I'm so prepared to work hard. 532 00:20:52,521 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 2: And now I'm in that phase with Targe where I'm like, Okay, 533 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 2: I don't want him to suffer and for it to 534 00:20:56,961 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 2: be as hard as what it was for me, But 535 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,921 Speaker 2: I also don't want to just hand everything to him. 536 00:21:01,321 --> 00:21:03,321 Speaker 2: I'll be figuring it out with Steve obviously, like the 537 00:21:03,360 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 2: middle ground where he feels supported, but he has to 538 00:21:06,041 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 2: know the value of a dollar and then you have 539 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,561 Speaker 2: to work for it. It's not just gonna be handed 540 00:21:09,561 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 2: to you. So that'd be interesting to navigate. Yes, he 541 00:21:12,961 --> 00:21:15,801 Speaker 2: gets into his teenage years. Absolutely, he's quite money motivated. 542 00:21:15,921 --> 00:21:16,121 Speaker 1: Yeah. 543 00:21:16,201 --> 00:21:19,000 Speaker 2: We have like this Spriggy account where he can earn chores. 544 00:21:19,041 --> 00:21:20,801 Speaker 2: He does a disrusher every single day to help the 545 00:21:20,801 --> 00:21:23,521 Speaker 2: family and that's just contribution and helps tidy up and 546 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 2: whatever and keeps his room clean. But the extra things 547 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 2: that he wants to do, he can earn money. I 548 00:21:27,481 --> 00:21:29,681 Speaker 2: love that for him. Yeah, but he is quite money motivated. 549 00:21:29,761 --> 00:21:32,121 Speaker 3: That's how he would learn Yeah, through those little things. 550 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 3: He's like, Okay, cool, if I want this, I've got 551 00:21:33,681 --> 00:21:34,401 Speaker 3: to do this. Yeah. 552 00:21:34,561 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I think also i'd love to talk about 553 00:21:39,001 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 2: why women carry so much more money guilt, the good 554 00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 2: girl programming, like being humble and being grateful and not 555 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,360 Speaker 2: wanting too much, and how this affects women charging their worth, 556 00:21:48,801 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 2: asking for raises, or feeling worthy of wealth. And this 557 00:21:52,201 --> 00:21:54,761 Speaker 2: is really relevant right now because we have a girlfriend 558 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 2: who really struggles to have those conversations and it's landed 559 00:21:58,681 --> 00:22:01,241 Speaker 2: her in a position where she's in a well paying job, 560 00:22:01,321 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 2: but her boss just keeps throwing more and more roles 561 00:22:04,120 --> 00:22:06,801 Speaker 2: at her and not setting her for it. So she's 562 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 2: burnt out, she's stressed, she's resentful, she's not enjoying the 563 00:22:10,681 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 2: role as much because she's taken on so much, and 564 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:14,961 Speaker 2: we're on the sideline. It's being like, oh my gosh, 565 00:22:15,001 --> 00:22:16,801 Speaker 2: you need to speak up, like you need to say something. 566 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,321 Speaker 2: You need to tell her no, no, say no, I 567 00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 2: can do this and I'll take on that extra responsibility 568 00:22:22,241 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 2: for X amount. I'm not just going to do that 569 00:22:24,120 --> 00:22:25,881 Speaker 2: for free. But because she's kind of done that from 570 00:22:25,921 --> 00:22:28,561 Speaker 2: the start, this bosh just keeps taking advantage of it 571 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:30,921 Speaker 2: and piling more on her, Like why do you think 572 00:22:30,961 --> 00:22:35,881 Speaker 2: women struggle for asking for a raise or even though 573 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,121 Speaker 2: for you with your coaching, I did it with being 574 00:22:38,120 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 2: a pt too, like raising my prices. 575 00:22:40,241 --> 00:22:41,281 Speaker 1: I felt bad about. 576 00:22:41,801 --> 00:22:43,521 Speaker 3: I want to help everyone. I know everyone kind of 577 00:22:43,521 --> 00:22:45,681 Speaker 3: afford it and like be accessible. I know what it's 578 00:22:45,761 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 3: like when I don't have much money and you know 579 00:22:47,481 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 3: they need this, but it's so important to know your worst. 580 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,161 Speaker 3: Why do you think women struggle with that? Well, that's 581 00:22:53,201 --> 00:22:56,521 Speaker 3: a big question, honestly, I think it comes down to 582 00:22:56,561 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 3: a couple of things, Like one, I think there's a 583 00:22:58,761 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 3: worth aspect to that, and of like I'm feeling deserving 584 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 3: of that amount of money, o the of it like 585 00:23:03,001 --> 00:23:05,360 Speaker 3: only because they haven't learned how to hold it, and yes, 586 00:23:05,801 --> 00:23:08,321 Speaker 3: like almost don't feel comfortable to fully take up space 587 00:23:08,360 --> 00:23:10,881 Speaker 3: in that sense, and being like no, I deserve this 588 00:23:11,001 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 3: because I'm worthy of this. I think most women have 589 00:23:13,721 --> 00:23:16,561 Speaker 3: to some degree self worth issues and like struggle with 590 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:17,201 Speaker 3: that sort of stuff. 591 00:23:17,241 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 2: Scared of getting rejected and being told no absolutely, scart 592 00:23:19,921 --> 00:23:22,201 Speaker 2: of the job being replaced maybe by a man. 593 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,241 Speaker 3: For sure, so many things, and I think as well, 594 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,841 Speaker 3: not wanting to be a burden and conflicts because now 595 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,721 Speaker 3: good GOL programming, right, GOL programming. Yeah, because it's like, oh, well, 596 00:23:29,761 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 3: if I speak up to my boss, am I going 597 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,921 Speaker 3: to then lose out and potentially get fired? Are they 598 00:23:34,961 --> 00:23:36,481 Speaker 3: not going to like what I have to say? And 599 00:23:36,521 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 3: that is like a lot of women do struggle with 600 00:23:39,041 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 3: communication and open, you know, having conflict or even knowing 601 00:23:42,961 --> 00:23:46,521 Speaker 3: how to handle someone being combative, right, because we're so 602 00:23:46,681 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 3: terrified of rejection and someone standing up to us or 603 00:23:50,041 --> 00:23:53,401 Speaker 3: challenging us even that we don't know how to respond 604 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,321 Speaker 3: in those moments. So it's like, oh, I better just 605 00:23:55,721 --> 00:23:58,161 Speaker 3: not be a burden. I better not speak up. I'll 606 00:23:58,201 --> 00:24:00,041 Speaker 3: cop the brunt of this, which women have been doing 607 00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:03,041 Speaker 3: for forever. I'll hold the discomfort so I can please 608 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:03,721 Speaker 3: everybody else. 609 00:24:03,801 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I know for me, I never want to 610 00:24:05,441 --> 00:24:08,241 Speaker 2: be difficult, like somebody to say, oh, she's so difficult, 611 00:24:08,241 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 2: Like that's not comfortable for me. Someone's to ever make 612 00:24:10,721 --> 00:24:13,281 Speaker 2: that comment about me. It makes me feel really uncomfortable. 613 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,561 Speaker 2: Oh so in the past, that's why I've kept down 614 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,081 Speaker 2: even doing influencing work. Having a manager is so important 615 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 2: because I'm not very good at having money conversations. Yeah, 616 00:24:22,561 --> 00:24:24,801 Speaker 2: I used to do post for brands for free all 617 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,881 Speaker 2: the time until another influence was like, what the fuck 618 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 2: are you doing? 619 00:24:27,961 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: Why are you doing that? 620 00:24:28,761 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're paid. 621 00:24:30,001 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not your job to build the empire for free. 622 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 2: You've worked so hard to build this audience and now 623 00:24:33,721 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 2: you're just doing it for free. And she said to me, 624 00:24:35,481 --> 00:24:36,361 Speaker 2: they'll be laughing at you. 625 00:24:36,721 --> 00:24:37,721 Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god. 626 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 3: Wow. 627 00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I got a manager and start a charge for it. 628 00:24:40,441 --> 00:24:42,561 Speaker 2: But I even felt bad charging and I want to 629 00:24:43,001 --> 00:24:45,041 Speaker 2: over deliver and do more posts on what I needed 630 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 2: to do, and I still could fall into it the 631 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,441 Speaker 2: brand that owes me money. Yeah, that's why I got 632 00:24:49,441 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 2: paid for one set of Instagram stories and one reel. 633 00:24:52,761 --> 00:24:54,561 Speaker 2: I put it on TikTok, I put on Snapchat, I 634 00:24:54,561 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 2: did extra tags on Instagram. I wanted to over deliver 635 00:24:57,801 --> 00:24:59,601 Speaker 2: because I want the brand to be happy with me. 636 00:25:00,001 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 3: But then they just didn't take care of you at all. 637 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: No, I don't want to self manage because I don't 638 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,521 Speaker 2: want to have money conversation and I feel bad charging 639 00:25:07,041 --> 00:25:09,841 Speaker 2: for something that I enjoy doing and I would probably promote. 640 00:25:09,521 --> 00:25:11,081 Speaker 1: Anyway, but it is business. 641 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,681 Speaker 2: Yeah, having money conversations As a female, I think it's 642 00:25:13,681 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 2: really really hard and it sucks. It shouldn't be like that, 643 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 2: But for minutes there's so much more easy and flowing. 644 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: It is just what it is. 645 00:25:20,721 --> 00:25:22,241 Speaker 3: It's like they take the emotion out of it's from 646 00:25:22,281 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 3: Logic is logic, Business is business. Yeah, that's it. This 647 00:25:25,721 --> 00:25:28,360 Speaker 3: is data, this is information, this is like my feelings 648 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,201 Speaker 3: aren't involved here.

It's not wide that way. 656 00:25:46,360 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 3: It is really cool to see, and it's something I 657 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,761 Speaker 3: think us women can learn from men. 658 00:25:49,681 --> 00:25:50,561 Speaker 1: And admire in them. 659 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 660 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,561 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I think it's an all beautiful thing. 661 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:56,041 Speaker 1: A generalization for sure. I'm speaking of my own personal experience. 662 00:25:55,681 --> 00:25:57,441 Speaker 3: The same here, but I think for the most part, 663 00:25:57,481 --> 00:25:59,400 Speaker 3: a lot of women, and it is a generalization, but 664 00:25:59,441 --> 00:26:03,360 Speaker 3: a lot of women can struggle with self worth, conflict, money, 665 00:26:03,481 --> 00:26:06,041 Speaker 3: feeling worthy. So it's like all those tied in together 666 00:26:06,521 --> 00:26:08,241 Speaker 3: no one wants to have money conversations. 667 00:26:08,281 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: No, they don't, you know. 668 00:26:09,481 --> 00:26:12,481 Speaker 3: And same thing with coaching, as I've increased my prices. 669 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,641 Speaker 3: When I first started my coaching business, Oh my god, 670 00:26:15,681 --> 00:26:17,801 Speaker 3: I was lucky enough to be able to work. I 671 00:26:17,921 --> 00:26:19,521 Speaker 3: chose to work with a business coach from the get 672 00:26:19,561 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 3: go and my business, but she challenged me to raise 673 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,561 Speaker 3: my prices from the get go. She's like, Tiana, do 674 00:26:25,721 --> 00:26:28,881 Speaker 3: not charge under this per hour? And I was like, 675 00:26:29,281 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 3: what do you mean. I was like, good, I'll just 676 00:26:30,961 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 3: do it for free, Like I don't need this amount 677 00:26:33,120 --> 00:26:36,001 Speaker 3: of money. She's Kiana, learn from me. She's like, I 678 00:26:36,120 --> 00:26:39,801 Speaker 3: undercharged four years. Don't do it. Just start strong and 679 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,961 Speaker 3: stand behind yourself. And that in itself was a challenge 680 00:26:43,001 --> 00:26:46,321 Speaker 3: to really be able to see myself and my worth 681 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 3: and be able to be able to go wout what 682 00:26:48,761 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 3: I have to offer is worth this in exchange and 683 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 3: really seeing myself in that way of, hey, this is 684 00:26:53,721 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 3: really valuable what you're doing. I think that's the biggest 685 00:26:56,481 --> 00:26:58,801 Speaker 3: lesson in all of this, is like being able to 686 00:26:58,801 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 3: see ourselves as something that is a valuable commodity and 687 00:27:01,721 --> 00:27:04,801 Speaker 3: a valuable exchange enough for money in return. 688 00:27:05,201 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 2: Yes, another conversation around money too, is I think there 689 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:13,001 Speaker 2: is shame around enjoying and loving money. Yeah, there is, 690 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 2: And there was once a friendship dynamic where I really 691 00:27:15,360 --> 00:27:18,921 Speaker 2: felt this and maybe feel like shit because she would 692 00:27:18,921 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 2: always say she doesn't need money, doesn't need the nice things, 693 00:27:21,241 --> 00:27:24,041 Speaker 2: and I really enjoy the nice things. I enjoy flying 694 00:27:24,041 --> 00:27:26,441 Speaker 2: business class, I enjoy having a nice car, I love 695 00:27:26,481 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 2: owning my home. I love being able to go up 696 00:27:28,561 --> 00:27:29,841 Speaker 2: date nights and not I have to look at the 697 00:27:29,921 --> 00:27:32,880 Speaker 2: price of the menu, like I really love having money. 698 00:27:33,281 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 2: But saying that out loud, I think I've carried shame 699 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,161 Speaker 2: around it in the past, and like I wonder where 700 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,241 Speaker 2: that comes from. But I think I'm fearful that people 701 00:27:40,281 --> 00:27:43,041 Speaker 2: think that we're talking about money or having nice things 702 00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 2: is rubbing it in their face. I think back of 703 00:27:45,281 --> 00:27:47,281 Speaker 2: my younger self, and I didn't like how that felt 704 00:27:47,321 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 2: for me. At the end of the day, that's not 705 00:27:50,001 --> 00:27:54,281 Speaker 2: my responsibility to hold everyone through their relationship with money. 706 00:27:54,521 --> 00:27:57,801 Speaker 2: We all have a relationship with money, being negative, positive, neutral, 707 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 2: whatever it is. But I definitely have felt uncomfortable talking 708 00:28:02,241 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 2: about it. But then I'm also I've spoken about this 709 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 2: in a previous episode, so if you've heard this before. 710 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,681 Speaker 2: I do apologize, but there was one influence online who 711 00:28:08,681 --> 00:28:10,761 Speaker 2: speaks very openly about the money that she owns, and 712 00:28:10,801 --> 00:28:14,481 Speaker 2: I just remember feeling so inspired and empowered by the 713 00:28:14,521 --> 00:28:18,001 Speaker 2: way she spoke about money and finances and she energetically 714 00:28:18,120 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 2: was just attracting more but doing the things, and it 715 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:21,721 Speaker 2: felt so good for her, and I was so proud 716 00:28:21,761 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 2: of her from an outside of how hard she worked 717 00:28:23,681 --> 00:28:25,481 Speaker 2: in the life she was living, and I was like, fuck, yeah, 718 00:28:25,521 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 2: that's really cool. And I wanted to be able to 719 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 2: do that for women as well. So that's why I've 720 00:28:29,241 --> 00:28:31,241 Speaker 2: been a little bit more open with money and trying 721 00:28:31,281 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 2: to dissolve the shame for myself and for other people. 722 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,360 Speaker 2: And when I see other women talking about I'm like, fuck, yeah, yeah, 723 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 2: you went ten mil last year. Yeah, yeah, you go 724 00:28:38,601 --> 00:28:40,881 Speaker 2: and did Yeah we earned one hundred and fifty grand 725 00:28:40,921 --> 00:28:43,681 Speaker 2: salary from seventy five now fuck yeah, yeah you should 726 00:28:43,761 --> 00:28:45,601 Speaker 2: be proud and scream that to the rooftops. 727 00:28:45,641 --> 00:28:46,401 Speaker 3: Good on you. Yeah. 728 00:28:46,481 --> 00:28:48,601 Speaker 2: But I think a lot of people are really uncomfortable 729 00:28:49,001 --> 00:28:50,521 Speaker 2: talking about that because I don't want to feel like 730 00:28:50,561 --> 00:28:52,721 Speaker 2: they're bragging or rubbing in other people's face that don't 731 00:28:52,721 --> 00:28:54,241 Speaker 2: have it. Even the other day, I had a girl 732 00:28:54,281 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 2: swipe up. It was Tyler's birth. Then I did a 733 00:28:56,241 --> 00:28:58,401 Speaker 2: little hall on snapchat of what I got her. We 734 00:28:58,441 --> 00:29:00,241 Speaker 2: actually spent like maybe a hundred and fifty bucks in 735 00:29:00,281 --> 00:29:02,681 Speaker 2: her presence. They were cheap barbies, a cheap doctor's set. 736 00:29:02,761 --> 00:29:05,041 Speaker 2: We just went to a toy place. And this later 737 00:29:05,201 --> 00:29:07,001 Speaker 2: swiped up and I can't remember a word for word, 738 00:29:07,001 --> 00:29:10,001 Speaker 2: which basically she was like, this is really insensitive. Most 739 00:29:10,041 --> 00:29:11,961 Speaker 2: of us can't afford food on our plates, and here 740 00:29:11,961 --> 00:29:13,721 Speaker 2: you are bragging about what you've got for your daughter. 741 00:29:14,081 --> 00:29:14,641 Speaker 1: Read the room. 742 00:29:14,881 --> 00:29:16,561 Speaker 3: I was like, oh wow. 743 00:29:16,721 --> 00:29:17,321 Speaker 1: Yeah. 744 00:29:17,401 --> 00:29:20,961 Speaker 2: I was like, this is why people get uncomfortable talking 745 00:29:20,961 --> 00:29:22,761 Speaker 2: about it, because my intention was not to rub that 746 00:29:22,801 --> 00:29:24,921 Speaker 2: anyone's faces. I'm trying to give my girl a Barbie 747 00:29:24,961 --> 00:29:27,921 Speaker 2: Duck yet. But it just goes to show where everyone's at, 748 00:29:27,921 --> 00:29:29,881 Speaker 2: and they're going to be triggered depending on where they're 749 00:29:29,881 --> 00:29:32,161 Speaker 2: at their relationship with money, and they're the beliefs of 750 00:29:32,881 --> 00:29:36,161 Speaker 2: where they feel stuck and what's not possible to change. 751 00:29:36,561 --> 00:29:38,921 Speaker 2: If she feels like this is her life, ever, she's 752 00:29:38,961 --> 00:29:40,721 Speaker 2: forever going to be triggered by someone that has money. 753 00:29:40,961 --> 00:29:43,361 Speaker 3: That's right. It's maybe even a thing for her of like, oh, 754 00:29:43,401 --> 00:29:45,681 Speaker 3: that's not possible for me, and it's triggering. 755 00:29:45,321 --> 00:29:46,361 Speaker 1: So why is it fair that you get it? 756 00:29:46,481 --> 00:29:48,601 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's obviously triggering a desire of something that she 757 00:29:48,681 --> 00:29:50,681 Speaker 3: wants and feels like she can't have exactly know, and 758 00:29:50,721 --> 00:29:54,281 Speaker 3: that's unfortunate, unfortunately the reality for some people. But also 759 00:29:54,801 --> 00:29:56,641 Speaker 3: you're also in a different position, do you know what, 760 00:29:57,001 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 3: And to tiptoe around your relationship with things to not 761 00:30:01,121 --> 00:30:04,521 Speaker 3: piss off anybody is doing you a disservice, right, because 762 00:30:04,521 --> 00:30:07,081 Speaker 3: then you're also not speaking to the people that are 763 00:30:07,121 --> 00:30:07,921 Speaker 3: inspired by that. 764 00:30:08,001 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, you know. 765 00:30:09,401 --> 00:30:11,841 Speaker 3: And I think you get to have what you have 766 00:30:11,921 --> 00:30:13,761 Speaker 3: and you're at the level that you're at because of 767 00:30:13,801 --> 00:30:16,281 Speaker 3: what you've created for yourself, and to not enjoy that, 768 00:30:17,081 --> 00:30:20,001 Speaker 3: to be mindful of other people's feelings and emotions is yeah, 769 00:30:20,041 --> 00:30:21,281 Speaker 3: I think doing you a disservit. 770 00:30:21,441 --> 00:30:22,921 Speaker 1: It is you know, go to eighty years old and 771 00:30:23,001 --> 00:30:24,521 Speaker 1: be like, why the fuck did I do that? Yeah? 772 00:30:24,681 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 2: This wasted my whole life tiptoeing walking on eggshells for 773 00:30:27,961 --> 00:30:30,401 Speaker 2: people I don't even know online in case I upset 774 00:30:30,441 --> 00:30:31,801 Speaker 2: them because I spent money on xyz. 775 00:30:32,001 --> 00:30:34,161 Speaker 3: But could you imagine if we all walked around tiptoeing 776 00:30:34,161 --> 00:30:36,681 Speaker 3: and oh, trying to please everybody. I mean people do 777 00:30:36,721 --> 00:30:38,841 Speaker 3: it now, yeah, but everyone's unhappy. 778 00:30:39,041 --> 00:30:40,881 Speaker 2: Yes, And people have such strong opinions on what you 779 00:30:40,921 --> 00:30:42,921 Speaker 2: should and shouldn't spend. And when I went to Paris 780 00:30:42,961 --> 00:30:44,641 Speaker 2: and I showed me buying a little moved on bag, 781 00:30:44,961 --> 00:30:47,161 Speaker 2: oh shit, I coughed for that. You can be donating 782 00:30:47,161 --> 00:30:48,441 Speaker 2: that money, you can be doing this with that blah 783 00:30:48,441 --> 00:30:50,681 Speaker 2: blah blah. I'm like, I do donate money. And I 784 00:30:50,721 --> 00:30:54,001 Speaker 2: also bought myself a bat. Yeah, I vot, I do vote, yeah, 785 00:30:54,041 --> 00:30:56,401 Speaker 2: because I'm in this position where I've worked so hard 786 00:30:56,441 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 2: to Yeah, where I am. I'm not going to live 787 00:30:58,241 --> 00:31:00,561 Speaker 2: with myself or live my life by your rule book 788 00:31:00,601 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 2: that you've made up. 789 00:31:01,681 --> 00:31:03,841 Speaker 3: I got my own rules and I'm going to follow them. Yeah, 790 00:31:04,281 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 3: you do you boot, Yes, But you know what, at 791 00:31:07,521 --> 00:31:09,481 Speaker 3: the end of the day, this is the conversation, right. 792 00:31:10,001 --> 00:31:13,201 Speaker 3: Everyone is responsible for their own triggers, yes, And it's 793 00:31:13,241 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 3: easy to project the responsibility onto the person who is 794 00:31:16,481 --> 00:31:18,961 Speaker 3: triggering you in the moment, but it's actually not about 795 00:31:18,961 --> 00:31:21,041 Speaker 3: them at all. It has nothing to do with him. 796 00:31:21,081 --> 00:31:23,601 Speaker 3: Because if it wasn't that person who's triggering you it'll 797 00:31:23,601 --> 00:31:25,481 Speaker 3: be the next person. It'll be the next person that 798 00:31:25,521 --> 00:31:27,321 Speaker 3: you see on social media. It'll be the person that 799 00:31:27,361 --> 00:31:29,041 Speaker 3: you see driving in a g wagon that you're like, 800 00:31:29,081 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 3: why the fuck can't I have that? And it's not 801 00:31:31,281 --> 00:31:33,841 Speaker 3: their responsibility. It's your responsibility to look at all of 802 00:31:33,841 --> 00:31:37,121 Speaker 3: the things that are triggering you for a reason, unpacking 803 00:31:37,201 --> 00:31:39,681 Speaker 3: why and figuring out what it is you actually want 804 00:31:39,761 --> 00:31:42,401 Speaker 3: and focusing on creating that instead of shitting on other people. 805 00:31:42,681 --> 00:31:43,001 Speaker 1: Right. 806 00:31:43,081 --> 00:31:44,241 Speaker 3: And I've been there, and I can only say it 807 00:31:44,241 --> 00:31:46,361 Speaker 3: because I used to do it. I used to get 808 00:31:46,441 --> 00:31:49,521 Speaker 3: so triggered by people on social media who had the 809 00:31:49,561 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 3: lifestyle and the car and all the designer bause and 810 00:31:52,601 --> 00:31:54,521 Speaker 3: I was like, oh my god, like that feels so 811 00:31:54,641 --> 00:31:57,721 Speaker 3: far away, feel so far away from me. But that's 812 00:31:57,801 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 3: the work. That was the work for me at seventeen 813 00:32:00,561 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 3: year old Tiana who felt super triggered and felt in 814 00:32:02,561 --> 00:32:05,561 Speaker 3: lack with money. It is your responsibility to look at 815 00:32:05,601 --> 00:32:06,921 Speaker 3: that and create it for yourself. 816 00:32:07,041 --> 00:32:09,561 Speaker 2: And the trigger is because you're wanting it.
