Speaker 1: shout out to my new listeners. Hey girl, hey hey,

24
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: thank you to my professional homegirls and niggas for holding

25
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: me down as always. So I recorded this episode that

26
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: you're about to hear in July, and it's just crazy

27
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: listening back to my own story. Plus I'm also just

28
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: proud of all this ship that I overcame. I mean,

29
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: two years ago, I was literally starting back over from

30
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: a bad investment. I was in a toxic ass relationship

31
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: which we will get too later, and overall, I was

32
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: just trying to figure it out on my own. Thank

33
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: God for the podcast, child, because man, this was literally

34
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: my main source of inspiration. So y'all know, for every

35
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: new level, there's a new devil and sometimes I'm just

36
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 1: always in all of my own shrunk because damn, near

37
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: two years later, here we are. The PhD podcast was

38
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: in Glamor Magazine and Pop Sugar, and I mean talk

39
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 1: about a yes, bitch moment. Like when I found out,

40
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: I was so excited, but it really just made me

41
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: realize that this is only the beginning. I also felt

42
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: like I was preaching during that episode because I'm so

43
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 1: passionate about holding yourself down and not relying on anybody,

44
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 1: because y'all know how people loath throw shooting your face

45
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: when they like to remind you all of these they

46
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: did for you. So it's very rare to really how

47
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: people in your corner that's gonna be hold you down,

48
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,119
Speaker 1: gonna see you through things, and just be there through

49
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 1: thin and thinness. So I'm very adamant about creating multiple

50
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: trains of income because we all know that we can't

51
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: trust corporate America, especially when you're a certain color. Okay,

52
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: so what's that being said. Here are some updates for

53
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: the PC podcast. So for those of you that don't know,

54
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: I research, I record, I edit, and I published all

55
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: of my episodes for my show. Keep in mind that

56
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 1: I do have a graphic designer that I adore so much.

57
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: Shout out to her because she gets the kid. Now.

58
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: I have a transcriber and so she is doing her

59
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: thing and she's assisted me with transcribing episodes that you

60
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: cannot purchase for a small fee and listen. If you

61
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: think listening to the episodes are hilarious, imagine reading them

62
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: like I read both of them and literally just be

63
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: cracking me up. And last and not least, I now

64
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: have an animator, which I'm so ex a about. So

Speaker 1: UM while I was listening to the episode was talking

127
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: about my family. So if far as my family, I

128
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: can honestly say that now my sisters and I are

129
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: working towards having a better relationship, which I'm really excited about,

130
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: Thank God. Child. I don't want to adge too much

131
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: into our situation. I respect for them, but I'm just

132
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: really happy to finally have something positive with them. So

133
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: shout out to my baby sisters. UM. As far as

134
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: the people that gave me birth child, I still have

135
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: no relationship with them, and I mean that with no

136
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: shade because I'm really at peace with that chapter in

137
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: my life. UM. Also, I have a story that I

138
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: will share with y'all about my sperm dontor reaching out

139
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: to me and child the story as well, y'all, Like

140
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: you really can't make this ship up. Like, I'm definitely

141
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: gonna start sharing more things with y'all on the Patreon page,

142
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: but I'm telling y'all some of the things I will

143
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 1: share with y'all, y'all would not fu believe, like should

144
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: be like it would be beyond me. But there's also

145
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: kind of low key funny. So I'm definitely sharing with y'all,

146
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,679
Speaker 1: sharing the story with y'all very soon. And then also

147
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: when I was listening to my story, I couldn't help

148
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 1: but crack the funk up because I really thought that

149
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: I thought that my last relationship with my best relationship ever.

150
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna throw those shade because I do believe

151
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 1: that particular relationship taught me a lot. But I will say,

152
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: be careful what you pray for, child, and I will

153
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: also say, when somebody shows you who they are, believe them.

154
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: You know. I answer that somebody Agel Little said that, honey, okay,

155
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: and I was cracking up because I was really calling

00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: this nigga my hobby in the episode, like nigga please.

157
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: But as of now, I am single, I am joining myself.

158
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 1: I'm also looking for some new experiences, so I'm tired

159
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: of showing these niggas away. Child. I wish somebody would

161
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: But overall, I'm in a good space. I'm happy. You know.

162
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: I think that when I took that break off and Marge,

163
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: it really helped me to put some things in perspective

164

Speaker 1: and like just really safe, focused, and keep my eyes

165

00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: thinking pop off in the amount of time. Just gotta

00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: just keep working at it and being positive and staying focused.

168
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,719
Speaker 1: So as far as Ebina Beauty, because I know a

169
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: lot of people hit me up about this, I took

170
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: a break from it because I just believe and serving

171
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,520

208
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna share my story I need. This episode is

209
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: way overdue, and I'm kind of excited about letting you

210
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: guys know about who ever and a is I was.

211
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of funny because I think I'm

212
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: more so excited more than nervous, because I mean, I

213
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: have no I'm open books. I have no problem sharing

214
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: my story with everyone, and I think I always tell

215
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: my past and my future guests on who I am.

216
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: I think that the stories you heard previously before you

217
00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: listen to this one, you know the stories are a

218
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: little deep, like these stories are not for the weekend

219
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: heart And you know I'm gonna explain the reason why

220
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: I started the PhD podcast. But I just think it's

221
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: only fair that you know, you just know who is MNA?

222
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 1: Where did she come from? Why does she come up

223
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: with this dope idea? Yes, I am to my own

224
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: horn and just go from there. So I broke the

225
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,439
Speaker 1: subject where I broke the topic up in five different

226
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: sections because I feel like these are the most common questions.

227
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna just go through it and if

228
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,960

Speaker 1: Thank you so much, guys, Like I'm the love and

244
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,119
Speaker 1: the feedback I've been receiving has just been really amazing

245
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: and lets me know that I'm on the right path.

246
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: So so the first question, what was your childhood like? Um?

247
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,440
Speaker 1: So growing up? My childhood is not no walking apart. Um,

248
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: I am the oldest out of three one, two, three,

249
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: I'm like I am the others out of four. And um,

250
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: you know, me and my mother didn't have the best relationship.

251
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: My mom used to literally beat my ass every chance

252
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: she she can get um and then one time she

253
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 1: beat me up so bad when I was a kid

254
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 1: that went to school where I busted up, And it

255
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: was so funny because my childhood first of the time

256
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: knew that I had something was going on, or they

257
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: knew that my mom had did it. They know the

258
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: whole story, and I told her, but it was kind

259
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: of weird that the teachers didn't even notice it, which

260
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: was like kind of me. Thinking back on it now,

261
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: it's kind of like bizarre. So I have not spoken

262
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 1: to my mother, and you know, I can't even tell

263
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 1: you last time I spoke to her. I think the

264
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: last time I saw her was at my grandmother's funeral

265
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: and she looked like hell. But that's another story. But

266
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,680
Speaker 1: I have not spoken to her and like forever, and

267
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: you know, one of the things that I struggle with,

268
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: which which is a question I'm gonna answer her. Um,

269
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 1: But you know, I never could understood why my mother

270
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: never really looked with me, like they're like, she just

271
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: did not like me. And it doesn't bother me now

272
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 1: because I made peace with it. You know. I think

273
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 1: one thing that I had came to the realization of is,

274
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: you know, our parents that they owned demons that they're

275
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: working with, and I had to come to the conclusion

276
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: that it wasn't me. And it's such a hard pill

277
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: to swallow because it's like, that's your mom. But you know,

278
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: I had to forgive her in order for me to

279
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 1: keep growing and moving away that I need to grow

280
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: because one day I do want to have kids. And

281
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 1: I used to be so afraid to have kids because

282
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 1: I'm like ship, she was so freaking evil. I'm like

283
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: this if she had hereditary because I didn't want to

284
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 1: be passing she bown to my kids. You know, I

285
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: really wanted to break that cycle. So and that's why

286
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: I was so excited about doing the Mommy Issues UM episode.

287
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: If you haven't listened to it, that one is a

288
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: must listen to because I feel like we're so quick

289
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: to talk about daddy issues, but you know, money issues

290
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: is real and I can so relate to that UM

291
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 1: that episode and I received so many emails because everyone

292
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: was like yo, like Nias really don't be talking about

293
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 1: the issues they have with their mommy. And when they

294
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: do talk about mommy issues, they talk about it with

295
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 1: the men aspect, but they don't never talk about it

296
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: with the women aspect. So I was very proud of

297
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 1: the episode. And I want to give a shout out

298
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 1: to my guests who was on that episode, because you know,

299
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: talking to about things that are very near and dear

300
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: to you and kind of like make your look it's

301
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 1: kind of hard to talk about. But like she did

302
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: such an amazing job sharing her story, and you know,

303
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 1: all of my guests done such an amazing job sharing

304
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: their story. So thank you so much for that. Um So,

305
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: my father came into my life maybe like five years ago,

306
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 1: but I haven't spoken to him and a while because

307
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: I had to curse his ass out. But that's another story.

308
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: But I never met my father. Um I was on

309
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: Facebook one day, so crazy on social media. Social media

310
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: is so powerful and it's lady hit me up. I

311
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: don't even know the lady, never met her. She hit

312
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: me up and she was just like, um, are you

313
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 1: showing Sol's daughter? Because so and so wants to meet you.

314
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: So she asked me if I was my mom's daughter,

315
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: and she told me that my dad wants to meet me.

316
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: So the time, I'm like my dad, and I know

317
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: this so crazy, but like I didn't even know I

318
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: had a father. Like it's like one of those things

319
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: that you can't miss, something you never had. So when

320
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 1: I was talking to her and we're going back and

321
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 1: forth message and she was like, yeah, your dad's been

322
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 1: looking for you. He got your name, tametoo across this

323
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: hard all this other ship, and I was just like WHOA.

324
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 1: So I end up talking to my dad and were

325
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: going back and forth, and that's when I started to

326
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 1: meet my fault. I got to like talk to my

327
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: father side of the family. So I'm like six and

328
00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: I meet people on my father side something that I

329
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: never even heard of. I never even knew they existed. So, um,

330
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: the reason why drugs, the I'm addicted to drugs, I'm

331
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 1: addicted to drug story Part one, Part two was so

332
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: near and dear to me and shout out to my

333
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: guests on that one. It's because my father is a crackhead.

334
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 1: So when I was growing up, I used to have

335
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: like this soft spot, this weakness for like seeing people

336
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: that was addicted to drugs. Until this day, I'm still

337
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 1: like that because I used to be like wow, like

338
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 1: like it was it was to really like do something

339
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: to me. And now years later I found not the

340
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 1: reason why it was because you know my father, it's

341
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 1: one of them. But you know that relationship didn't really

342
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: last because you know my father, um is still on

343
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 1: and off drugs. So you know, I do believe that

344
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: when you get to a certain age and you're trying

345
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 1: to protect your energy, like you gotta take your energy

346
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: at all calls, and that's also including your including your

347
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 1: family members. UM. So in the midst of me going

348
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: through all the things I was wanting my mother, I

349
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 1: want to give a special shout to my childhood friends,

350
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: to Jasmine to bring me, to Jocelyn, to Lindsay. But yeah,

351
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: I want to give a special shout out to them

352
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,360
Speaker 1: because you know, in the midst of me going through

353
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 1: so much with my mom, I was able to listen

354
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: to stay with them. I stay with my friends almost

355
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 1: every day of the week. I remember you to sleep

356
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,720
Speaker 1: in the best with them on the couch, like their

357
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: moms were really supportive, you know, they was really there

358
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 1: for me, so shoutut to their moms, and you know,

359
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 1: like my childhood was really rough. And then you know,

360
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: the one person who was always there for me, who

361
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:03,199
Speaker 1: also always get me unconditional love, was my grandmother um nana.

362
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: So for those of you didn't that know me or

363
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 1: know how I feel about my grandmother, you know, she

364
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 1: transitioned three years ago and that was a very hard

365
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: tough period for me because you know, I never understood

366
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 1: the meaning of death. I never understood have people how

367
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: you could be here one day and we go on

368
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 1: the next. So you know, you know I took I mean,

369
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 1: I still struggle with it now, but not as much

370
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 1: as I used to. And I always I was having

371
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: this conversation with my friends. So she's listening, She's probably

372
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,239
Speaker 1: gonna be smiling, and you know, I was telling her

373
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 1: because people knew that my grandmother was like my mother,

374
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: like that was my mom, I wrote off, she was

375
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: my everything. And my friend was telling me how she

376
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 1: still struggled with her mom not being here and her

377
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 1: mom not being here for like I think she transition

378
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: maybe like ten years ago. And you know, one of

379
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: the things my grandma used to always tell me is

380
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: that you know, and when somebody transitioned, you not have

381
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: an angel, you not have somebody you know what that

382
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,159
Speaker 1: energy feels like, and you don't lie and energy moves.

383
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: So I was one of my friends. I was like,

384
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: you know, when you sense that your mom is new,

385
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 1: or you feel that your mama is new, or you

386
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: either see something their minds you of your mom, that

387
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 1: means your mom is there with you. So you know,

388
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: for anybody out there they're struggling with like many things

389
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,479
Speaker 1: go having a hard time with the transition of your

390
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: loved ones, know that your loved ones is always with you.

391
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,880
Speaker 1: And I really do believe that, like till this day.

392
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 1: If I'm having a hard time, boom, I see something

393
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: aud me and my grandmother, or she just gives me

394
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: like little signs or like the University of Me signs

395
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 1: let me know that I'm not in this by myself.

396
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 1: So I never feel like you anything by yourself, because

397
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: your loved one is always going to have your back.

398
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: So that's pretty much here about my childhood. I mean,

399
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: for the most part, I used to love one of

400
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,360
Speaker 1: my friends houses. I used to love reading, I used

401
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 1: to love coming to New York and just visiting my Grandma.

402
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: I mean, my summers in New York were like the

403
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 1: best parts of my life. So funny because when I

404
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: walk around certain neighborhoods and I literally see my younger

405
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: stuff and my grandma walking around, and it just it

406
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: just brings back so many good memory. So shout out

407
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 1: to New York man. Um. My next question, why do

408
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: you think entrepreneurship is so important? So I went to

409
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,120
Speaker 1: grad school, I got my m b a. And general

410
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 1: management and entrepreneurship. Um. Listen, everybody's not meant to be

411
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,919
Speaker 1: on entrepreneur But that doesn't mean that you can have

412
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: a passion project. You can't have a side hustle. You know.

413
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,840
Speaker 1: I think for me, what really made me preach and

414
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 1: like really tell people have the need to have you

415
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: have their own it's because recently when the government has

416
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,640
Speaker 1: shut down. You know, growing up, a lot of people

417
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: would be like, oh, you need to have a government

418
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 1: job because government jobs are like it's safe, right, But

419
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,400
Speaker 1: then when the government gets shut down and you ain't

420
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 1: got no money coming in, it's like what the fund

421
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: is you supposed to do? I remember when the government

422
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: shut down had happened recently, and you see all these

423
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: black women and these black people on TV and they

424
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,479
Speaker 1: cry because they can't pay their fucking bills. And I

425
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: was just like, no way, Like that ship was really

426
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,639
Speaker 1: like bothering me, excuse me. And the reason why I

427
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 1: was bothering me so much is because it's like back

428
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: in the day, they teach you how to get a

429
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: job and that's it, But what if you lose that

430
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: job whatever that happened. That's the reason why I'd be

431
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: telling people, Yo, what came. You gonna make some money

432
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 1: on the side, and it ain't gonna be something you

433
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 1: do full time, but it needs to be something whereas

434
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 1: God forbid, if ship hits the fan, you know you've

435
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 1: got some money coming in that's gonna hold you down.

436
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: So that's why I always tell people like, you know,

437
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 1: even if you don't want to think that the thing

438
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: that entrepreneurship is for, you, just do something. And it's

439
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: so funny because I was reading something and they said, wonder,

440
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:35,919
Speaker 1: for you to become a millionaire, you gotta have at

441
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,199
Speaker 1: least seven incomes coming in, not just one, not just

442
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: to seven. And it's so funny because I was telling

443
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,919
Speaker 1: people like, yo, everybody was telling me about all these girls.

444
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: That's making so much money. But I'm like a lot

445
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 1: of them be scams. But the ones that are legit

446
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,159
Speaker 1: making money, you know, they got at least three or

447
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 1: four different ways that incomes coming in. So whatever you've

448
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,399
Speaker 1: been like thinking about that, you feel like, oh, should

449
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 1: I or should I do that is gonna work? Just

450
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,680
Speaker 1: do it. I can't tell you how many businesses I

451
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: had before I really found what my purpose was. I mean,

452
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 1: I had a T shirt company where I was growing up,

453
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: which was up with pretty girls shirts. I did that

454
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 1: in college. You know, it was so funny because like

455
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: I just wanted to do it. Just say I did it.

456
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: But I remember like I was like one of the

457
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 1: first people really doing T shirt designs, going to different

458
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: t shirt mane factors, Like like I was really in

459
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: the t shirt game and that went really well, but

460
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: I was just like, like I guy off my list.

461
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: I did it was next. And then you know I

462
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: had a networking organization with Fred and like that didn't

463
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 1: work out. You know, I had an accountability company and

464
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: that was good, but you know, holding other people accountaboys

465
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: that saks a lot of work. Especially I was doing

466
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 1: like at least like five good clients, you know, I

467
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 1: was thinking about doing a gift wrapping company, so we

468
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: were example, and I had a dress rental company where

469
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: girls who like rent like one of the conddresses and

470
00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,719
Speaker 1: that was doing good, but it just took a lot

471
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: of work. And one of the reason why I didn't

472
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 1: fall through with that was that one is because my

473
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: grandmother passed away. So I was just like I've but

474
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, you know, being an

475
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: entrepreneur is not for the week at heart, and I

476
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,360
Speaker 1: think that's where a lot of people get twisted at,

477
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 1: Like it takes a lot of fucking work to like

478
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,439
Speaker 1: be an entrepreneur. I can't tell y'all how many times

479
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: I get so frustrated, I get so pissed, I'm so angry.

480
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: I pring one minute, I'm happy in the next minute. Like,

481
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: entrepreneurship is no joke. And you know when people always say, oh,

482
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 1: you got the same hours as Beyonce or this person,

483
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: it's like, honest, say no, you fucking don't. Because a

484
00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: lot of us when we start off with these these businesses,

485
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: we're still working on nine of five. So like with me,

486
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 1: I wake up a last spotor it's just like every

487
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 1: morning I do at least three hours going to blow

488
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 1: my work. Did I get racial work? I do at

489
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 1: least eight hours By time I get home, it's like

490
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: eight and nine o'clock at night, and then I'm up

491
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: again for nine nine as club, just working on my

492
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,199
Speaker 1: stuff and something I don't even forget to eat. And

493
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 1: now that I incorporated working out and I'm working out,

494
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,640
Speaker 1: trying to work out at least every day for money

495
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: through Friday. It was just a lot. So it's just

496
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 1: like and not for nothing. You don't have the same

497
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: hours as Beyonce. I love Bonce, but Beyonce a machine

498
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: that is a business. She has a team. She has

499
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,680
Speaker 1: a team that has a team. So it's just like,

500
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,440
Speaker 1: you gotta work with what you have until you can

501
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: get more, and until you get more, just work with

502
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 1: what you have. Don't beat yourself up. And I'm telling

503
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 1: you from experience. I used to drive myself fucking crazy, y'all.

504
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 1: Like I can't even tell y'all that it's so funny.

505
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: I know a lot of my friends will be like, yo, dad,

506
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 1: ask like, but at the end one day, if you

507
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: believe in yourself that much, and you know that, like

508
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: I know my time is coming. I know my ship

509
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: gonn pop up because I believe in myself that much,

510
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: and I know everybody might have that feeling, but they

511
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,399
Speaker 1: don't matter where everybody else have. As long as you

512
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 1: believe in what you've got doing, that's all that matters.

513
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,919
Speaker 1: And so I asked me, what does PSG stand for?

514
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: So PSG stands for a Professional Home Girl. So I

515
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 1: have a women's lifestyle platform there encouraged women to be

516
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: the best version of themselves, both personally and professionally. And

517
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 1: that website is www. Got the Professional Homegirl dot com.

518
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 1: So if you are one of those people who love

519
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: to write, want to share your stories, please email me

520
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: at hello at the Professional homeguard dot com. Hollo, I

521
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: get some water when a little rent named me a

522
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: little thirsty, come on, but email me um. I have

523

524
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: for those people who wanted to look for some integration.

525
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: You want to know what's going on in New York.

526
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: Like I used to go, I still do go. I

527
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,960
Speaker 1: took a break, but I was going to a lot

528
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: of events at the right of my honest recasts. And

529
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: sometimes I have like a little cold. And since you

530
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 1: can get things a cheaper price, and I just really

531
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 1: loved the question of home girl. I'm one of the

532
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: many reasons why I created the Professional Homegirl the platform

533
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 1: itself is because you know, when after I lost my grandmother,

534
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: I was just like, yo, I know, I can't be

535
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 1: the only person that's going through everything that I'm going through,

536
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 1: and so I wanted to create a resource for other

537
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,439
Speaker 1: women to know how to deal with certain things and

538
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 1: then just kind of like birth into this platform. And

539
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 1: then after a while, I'm like, y'all, like, you know,

540
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to retain somebody's attention when you're

541
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: trying to um talk to them, when you're trying to

542
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 1: make them read something, So like, how else can I

543
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: get somebody? How can else? How else can I get

544
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: my p G my proquestional home goes out their attention?

545
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 1: And that's when I came up with the PFC podcast,

546
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: And I cannot tell you, y'all, that has been the

547
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 1: best decision I have ever made. The PhD podcast has

548
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: been doing so amazing. So that's why I'm asking y'all

549
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: to please make sure y'all leave a review and tell

550
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 1: me what you think, because that's the only way I

551
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 1: can know what to take out, what to keep it,

552
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 1: what they work on like well for the most part,

553
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: and then we're knock on some wood. It has been

554
00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: doing really amazing, Like right now I'm on iTunes and

555
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: five stars in Um. I think when I even told

556
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: me that they saw the podcast on What's New and

557
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: what to listen to the apples, So I'm really excited

558
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,919
Speaker 1: about the content that I've been creative. Um. The reason

559
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 1: why I started evon a Beauty is because I just

560
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 1: always been into beauty. Like I love makeup, I love

561
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: feeling like a woman. So I really wanted to create

562
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 1: a company that pretty much embodies whoever is and I

563
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 1: feel like E is I'm so many different aspects. I

564
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 1: don't think that one woman is just one dimensional. You know,

565
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 1: we have so many different layers in us, even with

566
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 1: like being a mom, a girlfriend, a wife, a sister,

567
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,880
Speaker 1: is a business woman, like, we just have so many

568
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: different faces that we were. So I want to make

569
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 1: sure that I'm embodying and capturing the essence of being

570
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: a woman, which is Ebane's beauty. So like I said,

571
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 1: I have the lashes, and the lashes are beautiful guys,

572
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: and no show, no t if you're looking for these

573
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: lashes that they're like little ways from pigeons and ship.

574
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,439
Speaker 1: Ebon A beauty is not for you ever. A beauty

575
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,439
Speaker 1: it's all about enhancing what you already have. And like

576
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 1: I said, no shade, no teeth, but like I really

577
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: the lashes are just so beautiful, So please stop asking me.

578
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 1: But I like you don't ask me. But for people

579
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: as outside when I revending that ship, be like, yeah,

580
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: I anythink it looks like this. I'm like, listen, girl,

581
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: but from the person who you just saw, Like, I

582
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 1: don't like, that's not me. And I like to open

583
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: my eye lids up when I got lashes up. Okay,

584
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 1: now my next question is, and this was a good one,

585
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: what do you struggle with? Um? So right now when

586
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 1: I'm currently struggling with is finding balanced. I mean it's

587
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: hard trying to do everything you want to do. Like

588
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: I have a notified you know, I have myself to

589
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: make sure. I need to make sure I'm always good

590
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: at all times. I have my boyfriend, uh, I have

591
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 1: Ebon a Beauty. I have the PhD podcast, I have

592
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: the Professional home Girl. Like that is a lot. I

593
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 1: love being around my home girl. So it's just like

594
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 1: trying to find that balance is something that I'm really

595
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: like working on because like I found myself like like

596
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 1: really like stressed out because you know, sometimes I'm so

597
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 1: into like the P ANDG podcast Professional Home during everything

598
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: beauty that I neglect, you know, myself, where I neglect

599
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: my boyfriend, like and it really bothers me because I

600
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: really want to be the best version in all aspects.

601
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: So you know, that's one thing I'm currently trying to

602
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 1: work through. Another thing that I struggle with is some money.

603
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 1: And I think that a lot of people struggle with money,

604
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: but they're not being honest about it. So you know,

605
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: growing up, I didn't have the resources and my parents

606
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 1: didn't teach me anything about how to manage my money.

607
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,959
Speaker 1: So a lot of things that I'm paying for now

608
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: is the mistakes that I made in the past. I

609
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: don't really feel no way because I know that once

610
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: I get myself out and get to a certain point

611
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 1: that I want to be at, I know it's gonna

612
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: be all worth it. Uh So funny got a funny story.

613
00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: I was telling my friends about this and he's like, Yo,

614
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: you should share the story. So I remember because my grandmother,

615
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: she had all the time. And so I remember when

616
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 1: I was staying with her and I was talking her out,

617
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: and I was working at this clothing store and so

618
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: at the closing store. I know why, but I was

619
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 1: just so fucking broke. All I had was a dollar, yo,

620
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: Like a dollar. That's how broke I was. I think

621
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: it's like a couple of years ago. And so, um,

622
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: I'm going to work and I was just I was panicking,

623
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 1: and I was like yo, because I had just started

Speaker 1: what the fund imna eat? Like what can I buy

626
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 1: for a dollar? So I was like going fucking crazy, yo,

627
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: true story, this is on why I knew that God

628
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: was real y'all. So going throughout the day with I'm

629
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: shooking nod water because I'm like trying to fill myself up,

630
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 1: asking people to have gama anything because I'm like, yo,

631
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: what the funk I'm about for a dollar? Like even

632
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 1: if I buy a bag of chips, and she's not

633
00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: gonna fill me up, right, So why am my mad?

634
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 1: People started coming in the job and I was like, yo,

635
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: this place that had opened up, it's called those toros.

636
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: So they're saying how I opened up and they selling

637
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 1: burritos for a dollar, y'all. When I tell y'all, almost

638
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 1: cried tears of joy. One of the fucking odds that

639
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: this then, and the dust world's delicious, by the way,

640
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: what are the odds of them selling these big gas

641
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: burritos for a dollar? Right? Something took for joy. I'm mad,

642
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: happy man, exciting ship. And I was just like na, yo.

643
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: I was like yo, who had a dollar on them?

644
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: Because I don't want to speck my car for a dollar,

645
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: you know what tax or even like one o eight,

646
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: one ten or some ship. And I literally all I

647
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: had with a dollar. So somebody else giving me a dollar,

648
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 1: and I got me a fucking burrito, man, And I

649
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:28,520
Speaker 1: think I got some chips and stuff on the side.

650
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 1: So that's the funny money story. So you know where

651
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm at now in life. It is very a humble

652
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: of experience, but I know that things are gonna work out.

653
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: And how I'm so confident in this because when Salons

654
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: came out with that song, I saw things. I imagine,

655
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: you know, I really felt that ship in the cor

656
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 1: because I really feel like God in the universe giving

657
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: you glimpses of what your future can look like. So

658
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 1: keep going. You know, I know it's hard. I know

659
00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 1: nobody like to be broke, but I am a firm

660
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: believer that anything worth having is worth fighting for and

661
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: things will work out. You know. I think that sometimes

662
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: we get mad and we're like, yo, why it's happening

663
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: to me? But you gotta realize that things are working

664
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: for you. So just keep going. Don't give up. Another

665
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: thing that I I struggle with in the past, what's

666
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 1: comparing myself. So you know what, the way that social

667
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: media is, everybody's out here living their best life, right,

668
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 1: so nobody is really putting their losses out there. So

669
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,800
Speaker 1: I always tell people that you cannot compare what you see.

670
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: Everything is about perception. So I used to like compare

671
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 1: myself from I would drive myself praise. I feel like

672
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 1: I wasn't enough, and I had to realize, like, girl,

673
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 1: you are enough. Girl, you have an NBA, girl, you

674
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: have this, you have that, you're mad creative, like you

675
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,479
Speaker 1: gotta give yourself props and anybody gonna hold you down

676
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: the way you hold you down. So all you got yourself,

677
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: So just give yourself props. Stay out on Instagram. I mean,

678
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 1: I love using Instagram because I'm I can that's I'm

679
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,920
Speaker 1: able to meet people. I'm able to like, you know, network.

680
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: I'm currently working on a couple of ads and sponsorship

681
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 1: deals for the podcast, so it's like, you know, I

682
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: really use it as a business too. I don't be

683
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,479
Speaker 1: on Instagram. I'm looking at all this gossip. I can

684
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 1: care less because gossip. I don't pay these bills over here,

685

00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: I don't struggle with this anymore. But I know where

698
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: my grandmother passed away. I was just like, you know,

699
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: would I ever find anybody that would give me that

700
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 1: unconditional love. And you know when I tell people that stuff,

701
00:33:56,200 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: they cook these up. Not only need these stuf, you know, mentally, financially, spiritually, personally,

702
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: but you meet the all stuff, your stuff, your cookies

00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 1: up with the person that you're dating. And you know,

704
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 1: I pray for the person that I'm with. And my

705
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 1: boyfriend could not have been a better partner. I mean,

706
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 1: even though he gets on my fucking nerves, but like

707
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: I have never met a man that has held me

708
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,439
Speaker 1: down as much as he has. So you know, shout

709
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: out to all the real niggas out there, and you know,

710
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,880
Speaker 1: I want to make sure I put emphasis on you know,

711
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,799
Speaker 1: don't settle because the person for you is coming. Don't

712
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,399
Speaker 1: go look him when you know you met the person.

713
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: You just know, when I met my boyfriend, now I

714
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 1: just knew, like I knew that was my soul made

715
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 1: like I just felt it. So you know, I'm very

716
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,600
Speaker 1: thankful to being a relationship. You know, he supports me

717
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 1: and all aspects. He helps me with my business. He

718
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: like he goes hard for my business that go for

719
00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 1: some time. So it's just like you know, you really

720
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: gotta get somebody that really believe in you, that really

721
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: believe in everything that you're doing. And I'm just gonna

722
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,640
Speaker 1: give you that positive outlook on things. You know. So

723
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,080
Speaker 1: that's pretty much most of the things I struggle with

724
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: or I'm struggling with now, which is you know, I

725
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: think the main component is just balanced. Um My next

726
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 1: question is why did I create the PhD podcast? So again, Um,

727
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: like I said, I have a lifestyle platform called a

728
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: Professional Home Girl, And like I said, a lot of

729
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: it an't got time to be reading, right, Like I

730
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 1: love to read, but a lot of people don't like

731
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: to read. People are either want to see it or

732
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 1: they want to hear it. So I create the podcast

733
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,760
Speaker 1: and every since I can remember, I love sharing stories,

734
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: like I love talking to women. I love talking to

735
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,360
Speaker 1: them about the struggles and how they overcame. I'm like,

736
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:36,839
Speaker 1: I am such a girl's girl. So when I came

737
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 1: up with the idea, I was just like yo, like

738
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: all the podcast would just be such a dope way

739
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,360
Speaker 1: in podcast. I mean, it's so funny because like podcast

740
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 1: is growing, but a lot of people don't know about it.

741
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 1: When I meet people and I'm like, hey, I have

742
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: a podcast, I told them. It's about the like oh

743
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 1: ship like really. So that's one of the main reasons

744
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 1: why I create the podcast. It's just it's just like

745
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 1: to grow my brand. Another reason why I create the

746
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: podcast is I want to people to empathize with each other.

747
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 1: I feel like as a society we're so quick to judge.

748
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: They judge each other, but come on, guys, I don't

749
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 1: know why. I'm sorry, I'm thirsty. M hold on, guys.

750
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 1: Mm hm. So I feel like as a society we're

751
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 1: so quick to judge each other, like, oh, this person

752
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 1: is homeless, oldest person has aids. But it's just like, yo,

753
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: if you really knew their story, you wouldn't be so

754
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,759
Speaker 1: quick and judge. And the reason why my guests are

755
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 1: anonymous because I wanted people to know who their story is.

756
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: I wanted people to hear what they have to say

757
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 1: because a lot of times, when you have a face

758
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: behind us in front of a story, you you negate

759
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: the story. But now that you want to have a face,

760
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: you have no churs but to listen to the story

761
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,320
Speaker 1: right now. I got to a point that the stories

762
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: be so good and they'd be so real and they'd

763
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: be so raw that people want to know more about

764
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 1: the person. They want to know who the person is

765
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,799
Speaker 1: when they do all this other stuff. So I'm very

766

Speaker 1: to be a point where we each one teach one.

770
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 1: We all need to learn from each other. And I

771
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: also feel like, you know, one of my favorite jay

772
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,400
Speaker 1: Z lines is whope did that? If you want to

773
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: go through that? So if people are telling me exactly

774
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 1: what they did, hopefully they make your life a little

775
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 1: bit easier, you know. And another thing. One of the

776
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: reasons why I wanted to create the PHG podcast because

777
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: I wanted to change narrative of black women. I am

778
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: so sick of time people saying that black women are

779
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: so aggressive, so uh, we're souldier for soul, that we're

780
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 1: so passionate. But it's like, nigga, if you can walk

781
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 1: even an inch and the and these women shoes and

782
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: you'll be sucking passionate too. And I just so tired

783
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: people saying that black women is just a black women

784
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 1: is that? And it's just like if you would know

785
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 1: where black women go through on a daily basis, Like

786
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,279
Speaker 1: we have to work twice as hard just to get

787
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: half as far. So I wanted to change narrative of

788
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 1: what people perceive black women should be. And I want

789
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:00,759
Speaker 1: to do it one story at a time. And it's

790
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: so funny because my white home girl hit me up

791
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:04,799
Speaker 1: and she was like, Yo, like I didn't know black

792
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,239
Speaker 1: women go through so much and y'all keep so much

793
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: bottle in And I'm like yeah. So it's just like

794
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,600
Speaker 1: it infuriates me when I hear people saying, oh, I'm

795
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: passionate this net. I'm like, Yo, my nigga, could you really?

796
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: Could you really do the things that? Could you really

797
00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 1: go through the things that I've been through as a

798
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 1: child growing up to where I'm at now in life

799
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: and still look and keep my head upon and keep

800
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 1: my saying the team and still look as good as

801
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: I do. No. So it's just like I think it's

802
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: important that we take charge and telling our stories and

803
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:37,759
Speaker 1: selling people tell it for us. Uh. And then my

804
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: last question is, you know, somebody asked me what are

805
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:44,800
Speaker 1: your freatser goals? So I have a lot of goals
