56
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: of all, I just got to go back to that intro,

57
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: you know, education to know our profit. Then it became,

58
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: you know, just a simple way to supplement my income.

59
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: Then it became a side hustle, and then you decided

60
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: just to quit. Okay, walk us through all those steps,

61
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: because that's a journey that allows us to talk about

62
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 1: what you're doing today with invest with Terry, it was

63
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: it was a journey, and you know what I would say,

64
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: I think it was actually a mindset journey because I

65
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: learned about investing in high school and I learned about

66
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: it like the year that Google I p o. So

67
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: if you can just imagine me learning about stocks and

68
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: then Google ipo it eighty three dollars and what it

69
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: would have done for me if I had invested back then.

70
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: But nobody in my family knew anything about stock, so

71
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: we yeah, I knew it was a good thing, but

72
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: I didn't know how to do it. And so going

73
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: into college, I went to M I T. And studied

74
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: on Wall Street because I'm still interested in what is

75
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 1: the called stock thing? So you just blew past in

76
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 1: my tea like that, you know, or junior college I

77
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: went to in my tea. Okay, now that's what you're

78
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: not gonna do with my show, Terry, it's come on

79
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: my show and act like I can't hear success. I

80
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: can't hear significant things when they're said to me. You

81
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: keep talking, but I'm gonna interrupt you if you say

82
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 1: anything else like that and not slow down. You know

83
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: you're supposed to. Went and I went to M I T.

84
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: Thank you. Yes I'm kind of smart, but yes. So

85
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 1: I went to M I T. And they kind of

86
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 1: funneled us into two paths. You neither go to Wall

87
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: Street or you do consulting, because you know, they think, okay,

88
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: use that mind to problem solved. And so I went

89
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: to Wall Street and again I was expelled to this

90
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: whole world of investing. But this is the mindset part

91
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 1: in my mind because where I had grown up, like

92
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: I didn't grow up with money. I had always associated

93
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,480
Speaker 1: people on Wall Street with like, you know, arrogantness. Um,

94
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: they're just not good this, this is not a good industry.

95
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: So even though I had this great opportunity, I was like, no,

96
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that. I'm gonna go into consulting.

97
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: And then one of my clients with education. So I

98
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: went into this whole education route because I felt like, well,

99
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: that's where the heroes are. That what I had seen.

100
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: The heroes are in education, the heroes are in ministry.

101
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: And so I think a lot of our communities, like

102
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: we have that mindset. There's like this a version to

103
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 1: big money, but money or not realizing that a lot

104
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: of people are living successful lives doing this, you know,

105
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: because we we we see the we see, you know,

106
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: with a warm buff for the Bill Gates and all

107
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,479
Speaker 1: these people out there. They are our new celebrities now

108
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,679
Speaker 1: where previously with just athletes and just entertainers, but now

109
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: the tech world has created this whole world of just

110
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: celebrities in the stock world. And so to me, it

111
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: always felt like it was like they were there, but

112
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: it seems like they were ghosts. They were unattainable because

113
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: of the knowledge, you feel me because of the fact

114
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: that that's how that's how we deny ourselves on a

115
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: lot of opportunities because we feel I can't do that,

116
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 1: that's not me. I can't live in that neighborhood, or

117
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: I never live in that neighborhood, or I'll never be

118
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: associated with those type of people. And that's what you

119
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: were saying earlier, were talking about the mindset. Yes, yes,

120
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 1: and I don't and we do that so much even

121
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: when I think, so I have a school now, um,

122
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: and I know we're fast forwarding, jumping, but jump back.

123
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 1: You jump past the quick to your job. You jumped

124
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 1: past the side hustle, you jump you jumped past to

125
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: travel the world. I don't know. Are you trying to

126
00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: take all my interview? You know? Uh? I need I

127
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: need to be here. Let's go back to the side. Okay,

128
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: so we'll go to Yes, Okay, we have so much

129
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: I want to tell you. Oh but so Yes. What

130
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: happened was I had this knowledge from Wall Street, but

131
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: I went into education around for about ten years. But

132
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: because I still knew how to invest, I started using

133
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: it as a side hustle to supplement my income. And

134
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: the big thing for me was I didn't need a

135
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: lot because as an educator, my salary wasn't that big.

136
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 1: So for me to even replace my whole salary was

137
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: just three hundred dollars a day. So yeah, So when

138
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: I decided that I'm actually gonna I'm not happy here, like,

139
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: I got really stressed out. I wasn't having a good

140
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: time to my job, and I needed an extra strategy.

141
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: When I decided that you know what, I need to leave.

142
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: It was really just okay, what is my freedom number? Well,

143
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: my freedom numbers just three hundred dollars a day. If

144
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: I could just make three hundred dollars a day, I'll

145
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: be good. And I started learning how to do that

146
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: with stocks and I worked myself up. At first, it

147
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 1: was okay, let me just be positive. Then it was okay,

148
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: let me make a hundred dollars a day, two hundred

149
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: and then when I started hitting that three hundred dollars,

150
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I'm out of here. You started

151
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: walking a little different, Like I went, y'all want to

152
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: say something crazy to me today? Because I can leave? Hey, Terry, Terry,

153
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: how's that? How's that? How's that? Walking a little different?

154
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: Look if the people noticed you were walking different in

155
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: the break room with different sets of food and everything

156
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: we did, and you thought, what's crazy is? I think

157
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: my bosses could tell that I was walking different. I

158
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: even had a meeting one time and it was like

159
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: four of my bosses. I don't know why I had

160
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: so many bosses in education, but it was. It was crazy.

161
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: And they even asked me in a meeting, like are

162
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: you thinking about leaving and like the whole like their

163
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 1: holds a mean towards me chained. All of a sudden,

164
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 1: they started trying to like hold me down. Crazy how

165
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: people will not uplift you when they see you can

166
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: do better, you know, but they'll tell you but they're

167
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: cool with you as long as they feel that you

168
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: they're equal. But when they see you in a position

169
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: to do better, then they want to hold you back

170
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: or contradict you, a question your motives as to why

171
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: you're still at this job, and going to start damping

172
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: your start, you know, start damaging your reputation. It's really

173
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: sad what people will do. I remember when I quit IBM,

174
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: I thought I was the greatest employee ever at IBM.

175
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: I really did. I thought. I thought when I left,

176
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: IBM was shut down. I thought I was that great.

177
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: When I told my supervisor that I was resigning to

178
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: go tell do stand up comedy, he said, wait right here.

179
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: He when he got security, he when he got scary,

180
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: walked me out. Don't go. Don't go near your desk.

181
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: Don't go near your desk. We'll we'll send you your stuff.

182
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 1: Because that's how life is. That's why I tell people,

183
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 1: follow your dreams follow you because what you may think

184
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 1: there is and there's nothing negative. All companies do that.

185
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,920
Speaker 1: I do that to my company. You gotta protect your secrets.

186
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: You You just can't have an employee who doesn't have

187
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: respect for what you're doing. Just walk around the office

188
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 1: and just start picking up stuff, because they might pick

189
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,079
Speaker 1: up the wrong thing. It might take a take something

190
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 1: with you that you probably need to have to bring

191
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: them back in and ask for it. So so I

192
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 1: know exactly what you were talking about. And when I

193
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: tell that story, it's just a story I gotta tell

194
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: to everybody to know that. You know your value can

195
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: be perceived based on what they need from you. That's anybody, yea.

196
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 1: And so you start doing better now these four people

197
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: standing that you're talking about m M yep. And I

198
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: wanted to actually go take an invest in class like

199
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: it during while I was assistant principle. I'm still doing

200
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 1: my job like They couldn't even deny that yet. You're

201
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: meeting all the objectives on your resume. But when I

202
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: asked them, can I just take off a few days

203
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: to go take this investing class? Do you know? One

204
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: of the bosses came to my office and he said, look, Terry,

205
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: I just need to let you know if you go

206
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: and take that class, they will fire you. And I

207
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: was like, what because you would think like being able

208
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 1: to advance that problem solving, that's being able to make

209
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: quick decisions like these are skill set that I could

210
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 1: be helping my company, but it's building the skill sets.

211
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: But no, they were threatened by it, right, which was

212
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: really really sad, right because of the fact that you

213
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 1: were engaging in an opportunity that they couldn't participate in.

214
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: And what were saying is, believe me, they're good people

215
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 1: that she's talking about, but they're just caught up in

216
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: their their dreams. You can't let their dreams become your dreams.

217
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: And that's what was happening in your life. You are

218
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: you had a mindset that you know you couldn't do

219
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 1: the Wall Street theme, so you settled back. But you

220
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: always above them. You are always above them, Terry. And

221
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't understand that that you know,

222
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: you can walk a lifestyle, but it cannot be your

223
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: lifestyle if you're not committed. And after that, but that's

224
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 1: what started to happen. You know you're going you know

225
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: somebody could do better. And then when people start seeing

226
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: you do better, they start in your commitment. Yes, yes,

227
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: I'm about to say. Then that's when we had to

228
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: exit right there. That's when we started traveling the world,

229
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,679
Speaker 1: beginning full time investment, and Terry becomes an education and

230
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: coaching on how to invest in the stock markets. I'm

231
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: fast forward you now. I'm moving your forward now because

232
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: we got the reality of what I needed. The people

233
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: on my shoulder here is that you gotta change your mindset.

234
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: You gotta believe in yourself. And when you start believing yourself,

235
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: people will question you or challenge your motivation for change

236
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: personal change. You gotta look past that those challenges and

237
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: stick with your plan. And then she went, you know something,

238
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm making three hundred dollars a day. That's what I

239
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: make here walking around with these four people staring at

240
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: me every day. I'm just gonna take my little, my

241
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,600
Speaker 1: little three hundred plus because she she's a little bit

242
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 1: above the three hundred days, because she hugging as long

243
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 1: as she could. Just what I did. I told jokes

244
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: as long as I could I be. Then I relize,

245
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: you know something, I can't do this no more. I

246
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 1: gotta go little my dreams. So where did you go

247
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 1: first when you start traveling the world, Terry, So I'll

248
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 1: quit and then onto South Korea. Then I went to Timeline,

249
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: then Vietnam, and I stayed in all these places like

250
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: a month at a time, just living my best fight.

251
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, this is wonderful. So so Terry, tell

252
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 1: us what you're involved in right now. So now I have,

253
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 1: of course that teaches people how to trade, and our

254
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: goal is to help when thousand people to make a

255
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: thousand dollars in a day. So we call it the

256
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: million dollars a Day campaign because we're just thinking, if

257
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: we teach a thousand people to make a thousand dollars

258
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: in a day, that's a million dollars a day, and

259
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 1: then that's in our communities. Like what kind of impact

260
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 1: could we have if we're generating a million dollars a day?

261
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: Like we could change so many things, from the school

262
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: system to healthcare to mental health, Like so many things

263
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 1: could be impacted by us learning how to generate our

264
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: own income. So that's what we're doing right now in

265
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 1: our trade and travel programs. Okay, when you say the

266
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: word US, I'm just talking to you. Who is us?

267
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: Well me, but I think of all the people that like,

268
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 1: all of my students as my family. So I'm thinking

269
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: us like we have or we have over eleven hundred

270
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: students down and they're they're everywhere. They're doctor's, lawyer's principle.

271
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 1: And so I'm teaching them how to make a thousand

272
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: dollars in a day, and they're doing it like they

273
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: are killing the game. Like even right now with the

274
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 1: market following, they're making money. Like literally they're sending me

275
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: texting us to do even today. That's like Harry, in

276
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: the first thirty minutes of the market, I made my

277
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: two thousand, I'm done for the week. I'm like, they're

278
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: they are killing the game. So that's what that's what

279
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: I'm working on right now, just changing the narrative by

280
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 1: helping us generat income for ourselves. Okay, how do I

281
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: reshow my dollars? Because I'm gonna tell you something, I

282
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: could never have enough money, you know what I'm saying.

283
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: I need I'll just Shan mcdong, oh, somebody like with y'all, Oh,

284
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: somebody not like with Shan mcconna get involved with your program,

285
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: because it tells me, here, you have four main topics, right, yes,

286
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: so be so. In my program is in trade and travel.

287
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: There's four big areas. The first one is you gotta

288
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: learn how to pick good companies, and like that's crucial.

289
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: What I see a lot of people doing is they say, well,

290
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: I don't have a lot of money, so I'm gonna

291
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: go pick up penny stock. That is the worst thing

292
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: you can ever do. If you're really wanting to make

293
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: good income, you have to pick value companies that are healthy,

294
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: that you know will be around for a while. So

295
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: like we really really want to go with healthy companies.

296
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: Then we go into risk management, like one of one.

297
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 1: I've been trading for a long time now, but in

298
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: my first six years I would make a little bit

299
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 1: and then lose a lot and then make a little bit.

300
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 1: So you can't you can't be successful like that. You

301
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: have to have some type of racing management planning to

302
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: protect yourself from moving. And there's so many ways to

303
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: do that. We just don't know. No one's taught us.

304
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: Like there's order types, stop block orders, and there's ways

305
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 1: to calculate your quantity side. Like sometimes we get so

306
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: we think that our our trade is gonna make us

307
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: rich tomorrow, so we just buy all the shares and

308
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: then it's like, wait, it didn't work out. Now I'm broke.

309
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: That's all. That's part of risk management. So we teach

310
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: risk management. And then the next thing I teach is

311
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: in charting. So in order to figure out the best

312
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: time to get in or out of a stock, you

313
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: have to learn how to read a chart. That's another

314
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,720
Speaker 1: thing that I see. Novice investors like skipping, so they'll

315
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: find a company they like and then they'll get in

316
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: at any price. But then they realize that, oh man,

317
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: I just got in at the highs and now it's

318
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: going against me and I'm losing money. Knowing what price

319
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: to get into a stock is determined by reading charts.

320
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: So I teach people how to read a stock chart,

321
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 1: and then we go into a trading plan, because in

322
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: order to have consistency, you need a consistent plan. Like

323
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: every time I take a trade, at these seven steps,

324
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 1: and that's what I teach. I teach my seven steps strategy.

325
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: If you do those seven steps every time, you can

326
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 1: get consistency. Like that's how I made it three hundred

327
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: dollars a day. That's how I've now grown to Oh well,

328
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,400
Speaker 1: I've grown over a hundred thousand dollars in a day,

329
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: but I grew to a thousand dollars in a day

330
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: and then continue. Now, one thing I hear because say

331
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: Rushan McDonald wants to jump in, I can't jump in

332
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 1: with a part time mentality. This has to be a commitment.

333
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: Correct it does. Now let me let me make one correction.

334
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: Though some people feel like I'm just gonna be staring

335
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: in front of a screen and it takes all day.

336
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 1: It does not take all day, like you can trade

337
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 1: within two to four hours a day, Like you don't

338
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: need all day to make your money. Um. And and

339
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,679
Speaker 1: what makes that less time is a chart. When you

340
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: learn how to read the charts, it takes less time.

341
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: But yes, it should be something that you're committed to.

342
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: You don't want to have like one ft in and

343
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 1: one foot out. If you really want to make you

344
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 1: gotta be able. Yeah saying is that? Is that? Okay?

345
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: The worst part about a person like me or a

346
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: person who here's your story. Oh, I want to make

347
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: a thousand dollars a day. Okay, Okay, Now there's homework,

348
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: Like you said, there are steps. You gotta learn how

349
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: to read your charts so you can't come back screaming

350
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: the terror going. It didn't work for me. Okay, what

351
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 1: kind of work did you put in though? Did you

352
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: think this was just gonna be Because a lot of

353
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: people want to have that lottery mentality. They want to

354
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: put their pick their numbers and win. And I always

355
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 1: tell people all the time, people who were in the lottery,

356
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,719
Speaker 1: they put in a lottery a lot they were just

357
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: walking there on the data numbers high and everybody's standing

358
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: in the line to get it. These people play all

359
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 1: the time. And so it's the same thing with stock.

360
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: You have to be committed all the time. Now, how

361
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: much time you give it is up to you, but

362
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: you still have to be consistent with it. And that's

363
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 1: the story you're telling on my show today. Correct. Yes,

364
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,120
Speaker 1: it's like learning a new language. You don't just all

365
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,440
Speaker 1: of a sudden the confluent like, no, you gotta learn

366
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:02,359
Speaker 1: the alphabet, you have the arn sentences, practice. It takes

367
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 1: time and practice, and then you become fluent. It's just

368
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: the same way learning to trade. I compare it to

369
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: like learning a new language. And then once you know

370
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: the language, you don't have to use it all the time.

371
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: You can pick and choose when you decide to trade,

372
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: but at least you know the skill set and you

373
00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 1: can have that forever, which is nice, Which is really funny.

374
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: I really love the fact that when I'm talking to you,

375
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 1: there's an energy in your voice, which means they're you're

376
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: still enthusied about providing this information to people and making

377
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: them successful. That's really that's It's that the education is

378
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: that the education part of you just still hanging in there.

379
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 1: You know, you're right, Like sometimes being an entrepreneur in

380
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: general can be kind of training. Like we all know,

381
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 1: like it takes a lot to a lot of effort,

382
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: a lot of energy to be able to just provide

383
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: any service. But I just get excited by my students,

384
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: like waking up today knowing that they can provide for

385
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: their families even during layoffs and and coronavirus time because

386
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: they have this feel set or they're not worried and

387
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: like they don't feel helpless when the market falls because

388
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,360
Speaker 1: they don't how to control their bundy. Like knowing that

389
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 1: that kind of life changing like transformations are happening gets

390
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: me excited. I still I still love what I do. Well.

391
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,199
Speaker 1: I can tell in your voice, and that's important that

392
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: I make that translation obvious to everybody who's listeners, that

393
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,479
Speaker 1: you really want to be in people who who will

394
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,919
Speaker 1: give you information and they have passion tied to it,

395
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: and they have love tied to it, and they have enthusiasm.

396
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: Because there's a lot of people out that they give

397
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: you information, but it's just a job to them, it's

398
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: just a job. They just they want you to invest

399
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,920
Speaker 1: in their idea and then they want to get that

400
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,440
Speaker 1: little money that you used to invest in their idea,

401
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 1: and that's it. And I hear a certain, a certain

402
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: youthfulness in being able to say, you know something, you

403
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: can be me and that and it's not impossible. See,

404
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 1: I know I can't be warm Buffett. I know I

405
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 1: can't do that person. He's so far ahead of the

406
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 1: food change is ridiculous. But I can be Terry em

407
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,719
Speaker 1: If you can, you can. And I want you to

408
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: like that's the key, Like I want other people to

409
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 1: be like me. I want you to be able to

410
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,640
Speaker 1: have freedom even if you don't want to quit your job,

411
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 1: but at least you have the money on the side

412
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,719
Speaker 1: that you know that no one else thinks control. You know,

413
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: if you don't want to travel that's cool, but you

414
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,639
Speaker 1: know you could if you wanted to, Like you can

415
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,439
Speaker 1: pay off your student loans. I've paid off my student loans,

416
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: I've paid off my mortgage, like all these things like

417
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 1: that kind of reality and freedom you can get from

418
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: trading stocks, and I think that's the key. I want

419
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: to just change the narrative. So many people think it's

420
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 1: just like a long term wait till I retired, But no,

421
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,679
Speaker 1: you could use the money right now to do whatever

422
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: you want to do. Okay, before we I know the

423

435
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 1: a day. Campaign is we're teaching a thousand people to

436
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: make a thousand dollars in a day. And there's three

437
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: ways you can get involved. Like one, join my course

438
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: and learn for yourself so that you're one of the thousands.

439
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: So learn how to make your own money. And and

440
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: the key is how much money you make will be

441
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: determined to how much you're investing. So I don't want

442
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 1: everyone to think, like, well, I'm gonna start with five

443
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: hundred dollars and then just make um a thousand, because

444
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: like my goal actually is for you to make one

445
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: percent of your cash amount a day. So even if

446
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 1: that you're investing with two thousand dollars and you make

447
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: your twention dollars a day, that's still good money. That's

448
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 1: a hundred extra dollars that we four hundred dollars a month.

449
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 1: That's twenty percent in return, which is better than the market. Right,

450
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: So we're taking we're doing small, small chunk, small attainable goals.

451
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,360
Speaker 1: So like that's our goals. The first you can join

452
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 1: the course, you can learn how to make your money

453
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: work for you yourself. The second thing you could do

454
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: to be part of a million dollars a day is

455
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: tell someone else. So if maybe you don't want to invest,

456
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: but you know your son does, or your deshew or

457
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,680
Speaker 1: someone that like women, I'm of course I'm a woman,

458
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: so I'm always gonna be advocating your your wife, your sister,

459
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 1: your daughter, your aunt, um like, make sure they like

460
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 1: you can also buy the course for them so they

461
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: can learn how to trade. And then the last thing

462
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: is sponsor a student. So one of the things that

463
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: I absolutely love about my course is that any age

464
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: group can take it. They'd either like I have people

465
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,919
Speaker 1: in retirement getting ready to retire, they're learning to trade

466
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 1: so that they can retire. People in their like thirties

467
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,000
Speaker 1: and forties, they're like me with the side of who

468
00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 1: just want to do so I'm different they have up

469
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: some savings in their account. Or you could go to

470
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,440
Speaker 1: the high school and college. Remember I was in high

471
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: school when I first learned, and I just I wish

472
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: that someone knew how to do it back then, to

473
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: sponsor someone. But those are some ways to get involved

474
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 1: with a million dollar a thing. Well, you know the

475
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: thing about it is that I, you know, two thousand

476
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 1: I invested into stock. I you know, I was and

477
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 1: I went with the theory of go for your shop.

478
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,399
Speaker 1: And I went to home. I shopped at home Depot,

479
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: I shopped at I bought Microsoft, I bought Intail. You know,

480
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 1: I bought um, you know, a O L. At the time,

481
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: we all know that wasn't a good bye. But but

482
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: the good pretty good. You know, I was rocking now,

483
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: I was rocking now, you know. But but but that

484
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 1: was that was a good theory because the fact that

485
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 1: a lot of times if you if you're supporting it,

486
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: then that's a good idea that you maybe that might

487
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,439
Speaker 1: be where you should put your money. So so when

488
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: you look at your course, how does your course do

489
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 1: for from other investing courses Terry. So there's yeah, there's

490
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: a couple of things. One, so I agree with you

491
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: that it's good to invest in companies that are that

492
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: you're familiar with. But a lot of times that's called

493
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: trend trading. A trend trader will just get into a

494
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: stock that they're familiar with and then like kind of

495
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: let it go like a buying hole. But I have

496
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: found though, if there's some companies that we are part

497
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: of that are not good companies to investing. So for example,

498
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 1: like Forward, I had a forward car forever, but the

499
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: stock was not a good stock to invest in. So

500
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: the difference is like learning how to do that technical

501
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: analysis piece, learning how to actually time your trades correctly,

502
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:46,119
Speaker 1: learning that risk management piece. Those are key things that

503
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 1: are different in my course than other courses. Wow and

504
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,959
Speaker 1: then yeah now now, so so that's the I'm doing

505
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: something you hit me dead on, okay, because of the

506
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: fact that I didn't do any education. I'm just going

507
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 1: out there hearing rumors theories. You know, invest on where

508
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,120
Speaker 1: you eat, invest on where your shop, invest on where

509
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: you work. Those are simple theories that have no relevancy

510
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: to the bigger picture. Like you said, I was a

511
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:15,400
Speaker 1: trend investor and I hadn't. I wasn't watching any charts,

512
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 1: you know. I would watch the news and go, oh,

513
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: Bam books. Let me go buy Bam books. That's hot

514
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 1: right now? Oh a o l that's the That is

515
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,679
Speaker 1: the quickest way to lose money because a lot of

516
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,720
Speaker 1: times when we hear about a company, it's already high,

517
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,919
Speaker 1: so it's right about the fall by the time we

518
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 1: actually hear about it. And that's gonna worry about the money. See,

519
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 1: I was an investor and you're telling me Rashan, you

520
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: cannot be an investor. Come over to you and you

521
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 1: will be an investor that has information, knowledge, a plan

522
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: of action, and a plan of action that can help

523
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 1: you win. Terry, You're amazing. Thank you for coming. Did

Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask and and some questions I'm gonna add too,

592
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 1: because I'm just a naturally curious person when I talk

593
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: about people who are being success. One of the first

594
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 1: questions they sent to me was when did the entrepreneurship

595
00:30:54,360 --> 00:31:00,520

596

597
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: wasn't working out for me. I acting, I was going

598
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 1: to act in class acting school, and I was just

599
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 1: at a certain point and I was like, you know what,

612
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,160
Speaker 1: you do the commercial auditions as well as the theatrical

613
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: auditions as well? Um? Yeah, I was doing both. But

614
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 1: then I was also at a stage in my life

615
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 1: where honestly just got a got out of a breakup.

616
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: I was going through a lot and just acting it.

617
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: I wasn't fit with that bug anymore. And I had

618
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: this product and I knew how it worked for myself.

619
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,000
Speaker 1: So it was just that a ha moment, like you

620
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: know what, this is what I need to go with

621
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 1: right now. Now, this is really interesting because of the

622
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: fact that you have this all hard moment, you have

623
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: this product. This is what's really interesting about our conversation

624
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: is that how did the product come about and how

625
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: did you realize that it was It's a hard moment,

626
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: can be functional and everybody else would want to participate

627
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: in this a hard moment idea. So, just to be

628
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: really honest, being obsessed with high heels, that is that

629
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: was my inspiration behind shoes. Gut me wearing and being

630
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 1: in shoes for over eight nins ten hours in a day. Um, honestly,

631
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: I didn't know what a pair of sneakers were or

632
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 1: a pair of flashes into the world unless I was

633
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: working out. So high heels was my thing is my thing,

634
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,880
Speaker 1: and I just had to come up with the way

635
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: for it to be more comfortable and shoot me with

636
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: it now. So it was a lifestyle invention, a lifestyle

637
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 1: invention to make your life more comfortable. Now, I'm a guy,

638
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: so please explain helping y'all know the women already know

639
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: we got these high heels. The ladies look fantastic in

640
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: these high heels. What are they? What is the what

641
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: is the pain that comes with wearing high heels. So

642
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 1: just with being in high heels, your foot is in

643
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 1: an unnatural position. Um, two, three, four or five inches

644
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: If that's that's not a position for your foot, and

645
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: then the weight bearing down in that position is what

646
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 1: really kills you on the balls of your feet. Okay,

647
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,920
Speaker 1: So I'm in my studio. You know, I'm on my

648
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 1: little tippy toes. I'm trying to I'm trying to feel

649
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: your pain here, chan tell Okay, so I'm on my

650
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 1: tippy toes and you're saying, imagine standing like this for

651
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 1: eight hours a day. That's what you're saying, right exactly,

652
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,919
Speaker 1: or some women can't even stand the being the pair

653
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 1: of hills an hour or two hours. And just imagine

654
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: you're in that position and overt right over. Sevent of

655
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 1: your body weight is on the balls of your feet

656
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: for hours. Right now, let imasgine this what stops your

657
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:58,960
Speaker 1: foot from just sliding right on out? Um of the

658
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:03,240
Speaker 1: high yell one. If you have a closed toe shoe,

659
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 1: then your foot's not gonna slide out, but it can

660
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: slide and be crunched in the front, right, That's what

661
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. Yeah, Um, if you have an open

662
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 1: toes too. You have that little piece of that little

663
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,920
Speaker 1: strap in the front that helps. But a lot of

664
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,880
Speaker 1: women's feet because of the arch or the steepness in

665
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: the shoe, do still slide forward. And shoe got me

666
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 1: helps with that as well, right, so it stops their

667
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: toes from going over to the edge on the edge

668
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 1: of the shoe, right that you talk about. Okay, to

669
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 1: have six sisters, so I've watched them do this high

670
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 1: heel walking um dance for many years. Well, but I

671
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: gotta play like I don't know to get more information. Okay,

672
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,400
Speaker 1: I can sit on this phone act like I know

673
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,760
Speaker 1: everything because you won't tell many things because the artists

674
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: are walking away. Go. Well, I didn't learn anything for

675
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 1: the interview because of the fact that this you you

676
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: invented something and I was on my toes and I'm

677
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: just to be honest with you, Rachean McDonald would not

678
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,800
Speaker 1: have stood there long. I would have been out of

679
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: little shoes a long time ago because that just wasn't so.

680
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,319
Speaker 1: So you have let me just help help me out here.

681
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: Because I've heard words like high heels, I've heard words

682
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: like pumps. Now pumps are lower version of high heels correct. Um, No,

683
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: not necessarily like UM, open toe shoe a pump. Those

684
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,919
Speaker 1: can be in the range of a two inch, three

685
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 1: inchield four inch five and pump. A pump is a

686
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: closed toe shoe, whether it's round at the front or appointed. Wow.

687
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,440
Speaker 1: So now we we we we got the experience. So

688
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: you're saying that, hey, I'm gonna put this acting thing

689
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 1: is not really doing it for me. I have this idea.

690
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go all in. This is gonna be my

691
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: plan A. How do you go to plan a with

692
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 1: this idea? Because it's still just an idea? Do you

693
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: do samples? Did you go to somebody, did you start

694
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:06,399
Speaker 1: telling them at flea markets or pop up boots? How

695
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: did you get started? So? Um? Before I figured this

696
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 1: is gonna be my plan a, I have been wearing

697
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 1: my product for years already. Um. One day I was

698
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,839
Speaker 1: sitting and I thought, looking at my shoes, honestly, how

699
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 1: can I make this more comfortable? I went to my

700
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:34,760
Speaker 1: shoe repair guy UM at the time, and I asked him,

701
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 1: what is an amount of rubber that I can put

702
00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,680
Speaker 1: on the bottom of my shoe? Um, and I can

703
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:49,239
Speaker 1: still walk in it safely and comfortable. So, uh, we

704
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: came up with in size or an amount of rubber.

705
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 1: I picked up the shoe about a week later, and

706
00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 1: I wore that shoe, and I kid you not, I

707
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 1: was taking my shoes twenty and thirty pair at a

708
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: time for him to put this extra rubber on the

709
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 1: bottom of my shoe. M m hmm. So it was

710
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 1: just like an idea. It's really it's really amazing that

711
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 1: you were able to not saying that you care, not

712
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 1: incapable of so many women out there probably feeling the

713
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: same pain, and then you decided to just to take

714
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: action on it. And when you took action on it,

715
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: it enabled you to create a business. Now, how do

716
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: you get into the business aspect of what you're doing?

717
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: That's the that's the that's the key. Now you know

718
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,920
Speaker 1: you you went from a person who are wanted to

719
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: be an actress. You got this idea, now you're putting

720
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: it in action. How do we get into a business

721
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 1: mode with it? So before anything, I thought, you know what,

722
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 1: let me see if this is even a thing anywhere

723
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: else or whatnot? What went to your girlfriends or you

724
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: just went to your family members? Who did you go to? Um? No?

725
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:08,280
Speaker 1: I immediately went to a patent lawyer. I'm sorry, Richla,

726
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: I was a little bit of pro I've been. I'm

727
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: past that. I went to a patent lawyer. Okay, Yeah,

728
00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:17,959
Speaker 1: so I went to a patent lawyer, and we had

729
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: to do what is called a patent research, which searches

730
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 1: the database first to see if there's anything else in

731
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 1: the US patent database. That is what shotgun me is

732
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: and we've seen that it was not, and that where

733
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 1: we moved forward. Had to get all the terminology, the

734
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: lane going together to start to create my patent application. Wow.

735
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,200
Speaker 1: Now on your website said it took two and a

736
00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 1: half years for your patent to go through. Okay, now,

737
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: were you're afraid that somebody will still your idea? What

738
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 1: was going what was running through your mind in a

739
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 1: two and a half of your period? Let me ask you.

740
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 1: Let me back up. Were you selling your product at

741
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: all at that time or you have to shut it

742
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: down and just wait for your pattern to come through? No? No, honestly,

743
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: at that point I wasn't selling products. I was still

744
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: in research development phase, like the start start. So as

745
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,879
Speaker 1: soon as I winning got a patent attorney, I went

746
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 1: and found a company that did cat designing and product

747
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 1: development to help me start to get my shoe gummy

748
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: uh designed together to make it a consumer product. Okay,

Speaker 1: look through life, as you deal with different situations, you

767
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: have to be a believer in yourself. You have to

768
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 1: have the right people around you. The fact that you

769
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 1: came up with an idea basically to find comfort for

770
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:59,319

891
00:49:54,400 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: in skincare and all of that stuff, so she brought

892
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 1: this idea to me. She asked about certain types of

893
00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:08,279
Speaker 1: phones and things like that, so I pointed her in

894
00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:15,160
Speaker 1: the right direction. Uh. She's also a steamstress, so she

895

Speaker 1: a year and a half, tested it out ourselves, and

899
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,799
Speaker 1: I just thought it was time to go with it.

00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:43,960
Speaker 1: And so maybe not even a month ago, we launched that.

901

Speaker 1: I built the website for us, and we are active. Honestly.

902
00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 1: It's come at a time where things are so slow

903
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: right now. But if you don't put that, if you

904
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:08,439

908
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 1: down struggling to find out how to put their foot

909
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: forward in anything right now. The thing I like about

910
00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:28,319
Speaker 1: you is that you're not letting conditions stop you from

911
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,759
Speaker 1: moving forward. Because I tell people, I tell people all

00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,920
Speaker 1: because I know right now this country, this country is

916
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 1: gonna get back on his feet. And when it gets

917
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 1: back on his feet, it's not going gonna be walking fat.

918
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: It's gonna start running. And what you don't want to

919
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,240
Speaker 1: do is sit on your rear, end on your behind,

920
00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 1: or mope around and talking about, oh man, what I'm

921
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,120
Speaker 1: gonna do. No, you're planning, You're thinking and thought this

922
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,359
Speaker 1: whole interview, Chantelle, that's all. That's My biggest takeaway from

923
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:03,879
Speaker 1: you is that you're not a person that sits around

924
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 1: in mopes. You're not a person to go if it's

925
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:09,000
Speaker 1: not happening over here, oh always me, I just is

926
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,360
Speaker 1: not gonna happen for me, you go. What's playing a

927
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 1: over here that I can build on? Is that? Is

928
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 1: that something that came from your parents? It's something that

929
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 1: just a natural quality in you. Um. I would definitely

930
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:25,919
Speaker 1: say my parents have helped with that, especially my dad.

931
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:32,680
Speaker 1: My dad owns a pest control service. In Florida. So um,

932
00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:42,120
Speaker 1: he's an entrepreneur himself, so I have taken those good

933
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 1: qualities from him. Well, also my mom like he's a

934
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 1: very hard worker, still go to school and she's uh

935
00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 1: sixty three years old. I believe I love it, love it,

936
00:52:55,800 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 1: love it. I would tell people, don't let age determine

937
00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:02,360
Speaker 1: your dream. Don't let age tell you can stop being

938
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 1: something that everybody else tells you shouldn't be. I always

939
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 1: look at people at my age. I go you to

940
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,800
Speaker 1: my same age, I'm really shocked because I know I

941
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,560
Speaker 1: don't look like you. It is when people will decide

942
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:15,360
Speaker 1: that they need to retire in life, is when age

943
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,840
Speaker 1: jumps on their back. Chantell, I don't think age is

944

Speaker 1: makes it is authentic because you use it, because you

1066
01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:15,480
Speaker 1: made a product that you use. It's almost like what

1067
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 1: happened to Madam C. J. Walker, you know, back in

1068
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:22,560
Speaker 1: the day, and it's your journey is is fast forward.

1069
01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 1: There's still no difference. You know, she was an inspirational

1070
01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,040
Speaker 1: woman who had an idea, saw a need for African

1071
01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 1: American women and also for so need that can make

1072
01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 1: them look good about themselves. Isn't that the bottom line

1073
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:38,560
Speaker 1: about your product is about making women feel good about themselves,

1074
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:42,480
Speaker 1: Making women feel that that that they're that what they's

1075
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 1: been given to him them by God. They don't have

1076
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:46,160
Speaker 1: to straighten it. They don't have to do all these

1077
01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 1: different things. They can actually just live this lifestyle and

1078
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:52,760
Speaker 1: be comfortable correct cut. That is the bottom line is

1079
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:56,120
Speaker 1: shown that. But the bottom line is being able to succeed.

1080
01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,480
Speaker 1: Products that are helpful is not you know, just not

1081
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 1: limited to women. It's for for everyone, including them, including

1082
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 1: little boys. Um. Anyone who's had texture wants the solution

1083
01:01:07,600 --> 01:01:10,880
Speaker 1: is jesse as really and you know, to make make

1084
01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:13,880
Speaker 1: things that worked and uh and making that work. So

1085
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:15,680
Speaker 1: now when I was, when I was, when I was

1086
01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 1: doing research on you and you was talking about the

1087
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:21,320
Speaker 1: diverse curly hair types they named you know, you know

1088
01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:23,800
Speaker 1: the whole thing is that you named the product after

1089
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 1: your paternal grandmother, jesse May Branch. So so this whole brand,

1090
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:32,480
Speaker 1: it seems so natural, so authentic, because you go, where

1091
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:35,680
Speaker 1: do you get that name from? Well, that's my paternal grandmother.

1092
01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:40,840
Speaker 1: So what what what was the inspirational instincts that she

1093
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 1: had that that said, you know something we're gonna put

1094
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:47,160
Speaker 1: We're gonna put her name on our product. M h.

1095
01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:51,840
Speaker 1: Our grandmother, jesse Um played such a huge role in

1096
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,240
Speaker 1: our in our family and particularly in the lives of

1097
01:01:54,320 --> 01:01:57,360
Speaker 1: me and my sister teachings. You know, we spent a

1098
01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 1: lot of summaries and a lot of times sitting on

1099
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,960
Speaker 1: there my grandmother is kitching table, and you know, she

1100
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,640
Speaker 1: happened to be a great cook. But if you sat

1101
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 1: around Jessie me grand you couldn't just sit there. You

1102
01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 1: had to be a very very good helper. So it

1103
01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:15,120
Speaker 1: wasn't uncommon for TP and I to mix the measure

1104
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:19,680
Speaker 1: to stir the poor a little disney. Know that that

1105
01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:23,680
Speaker 1: experience of being a wonderful helper to our grandmother would

1106
01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:28,360
Speaker 1: be the speed for us to create sus that work.

1107
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,200
Speaker 1: But you know, outside of her, you know are seeing

1108
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,680
Speaker 1: great health is and her being a wonderful cook. She

1109
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 1: was also the first CEO we've ever seen, the first

1110
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:40,200
Speaker 1: female CEO we've ever seen, and that that woman ruled

1111
01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:44,280
Speaker 1: our family from her kitchen table. So uh, TP and

1112
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,320
Speaker 1: I did not go to business school, so when it

1113
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:49,400
Speaker 1: came time for us to make decisions in our own business,

1114
01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:53,680
Speaker 1: we often tapped into what would yes you do. It's

1115
01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 1: really amazing because you know, we all know the times

1116
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 1: that we are living in and guess what they're not

1117
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:02,720
Speaker 1: gonna change. It's because to change the way we wear clothes,

1118
01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 1: the way we interact, where we where we shake hands

1119
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 1: or whether we greet people and social distancing. You are

1120
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 1: in a business where hair salons very intimate environments. How

1121
01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 1: is that affecting right now? You know a lot of

1122
01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:21,040
Speaker 1: a lot of states are on lockdown. We know they're

1123
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:23,240
Speaker 1: gonna get out of that pretty soon, I believe in

1124
01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:26,240
Speaker 1: the MONTHA made you know, especially with them ordering mask

1125
01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:29,480
Speaker 1: to be worn now and things of that nature, how

1126
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:31,920
Speaker 1: is that affecting it? Because one of your questions about

1127
01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 1: how you're navigating this whole period that now doing the

1128
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:37,960
Speaker 1: outbreak and practice and safe social distancing. Talk to us

1129
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:42,000
Speaker 1: about that. So when they say that God works in

1130
01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:45,640
Speaker 1: amazing ways, you know he truly does. You know, UM

1131
01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:48,200
Speaker 1: over a decade ago and more than a decade ago,

1132
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:51,560
Speaker 1: when Keeping and I first started making products, we really

1133
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:55,480
Speaker 1: focused on the customer and giving her the information to

1134
01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:58,040
Speaker 1: on her is how to give us here is how

1135
01:03:58,080 --> 01:04:00,560
Speaker 1: to do all these things at home. It was less

1136
01:04:00,600 --> 01:04:03,960
Speaker 1: about arm in the style is, but more about teaching

1137
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 1: us how to do our own hair. So fast forward

1138
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:10,360
Speaker 1: to what'll happening now and all of the UM social

1139
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:14,200
Speaker 1: distancing and everything that's going on, the good believes is

1140
01:04:14,240 --> 01:04:18,040
Speaker 1: that through the natural hair movement. Many of us have

1141
01:04:18,200 --> 01:04:20,920
Speaker 1: had a head to start on how to take products

1142
01:04:20,960 --> 01:04:24,040
Speaker 1: like Miss Jesse, bring them home and to be able

1143
01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 1: to care for our hair. You know. So in times

1144
01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 1: like this I don't worry a lot about us because

1145
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:32,480
Speaker 1: I know that we're very We're very good at what

1146
01:04:32,520 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 1: we do. We have the dexterity we have to know

1147
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 1: how and we've been trained. When I say we, I

1148
01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:41,320
Speaker 1: include myself as a customer. We've been trained on how

1149
01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:44,280
Speaker 1: to do our hair all along. So at this point,

1150
01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:46,720
Speaker 1: you know, many people know and love Miss Jesse to

1151
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 1: know how to use it, so in these times they're

1152
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,680
Speaker 1: actually using it more, you know. So God has just

1153
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:55,400
Speaker 1: been so good and that he's taught us. He's taught

1154
01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:57,960
Speaker 1: peeping out how to share in the nation. But He's

1155
01:04:58,000 --> 01:05:01,120
Speaker 1: also are many of us that want to do in

1156
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,760
Speaker 1: a case like this, and many of us the self sufficient.

1157
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:06,600
Speaker 1: Now I was had social media played the role and

1158
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:08,400
Speaker 1: some of the things have you done like do it

1159
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:11,800
Speaker 1: yourself videos and things like that on YouTube? How How

1160
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,840
Speaker 1: how's your presence been? You know, you're the you know,

1161
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,160
Speaker 1: the matriarchy, the voice, you the founder, one of the

1162
01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 1: founders of this company. How how has your role changed

1163
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:25,720
Speaker 1: during this time period and in the future, you know

1164
01:05:25,880 --> 01:05:28,240
Speaker 1: you've done my role. You know, it's it's changed in

1165
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:31,640
Speaker 1: some ways, but it's also remained the same way. Before

1166
01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:35,000
Speaker 1: social media. There's even a thing teaching. And I spoke

1167
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:39,000
Speaker 1: to our customer on ours the landslore thank god for

1168
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,480
Speaker 1: the Internet, and that at the time in the chat

1169
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:46,320
Speaker 1: room when women were talking and thank god you maybe

1170
01:05:46,320 --> 01:05:49,160
Speaker 1: you're making products that work, and each one told one

1171
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: about this job curl Magic. It was clearly putting at

1172
01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:55,800
Speaker 1: the time, and it was groundbreaking because there was nothing

1173
01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:59,400
Speaker 1: like it in the market. And that was express fire.

1174
01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:03,400
Speaker 1: Jessie was being mixed at the kitchen table Rashaan before

1175
01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:09,080
Speaker 1: they were going Viral was the word, right right, right, yeah,

1176
01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:12,120
Speaker 1: way before social media. So now social media is a

1177
01:06:12,160 --> 01:06:15,960
Speaker 1: more interactive way how to get the good world out. Um,

1178
01:06:16,240 --> 01:06:19,920
Speaker 1: but social media is just an additional platform. Was being

1179
01:06:19,960 --> 01:06:22,760
Speaker 1: able to connect with our customers and to give her

1180
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,160
Speaker 1: all of the information that you need so she can

1181
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:28,960
Speaker 1: continue to do all the great things for her here

1182
01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:31,240
Speaker 1: and us the right product. We know, it's really interesting

1183
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:33,480
Speaker 1: you say that because I know when I was managing

1184
01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:36,880
Speaker 1: Steve Harvey, you know, we were remember two thousand seven.

1185
01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:40,840
Speaker 1: That's when social media started a peak on every appear

1186
01:06:40,880 --> 01:06:43,120
Speaker 1: on everybody's radar. You look on TV and you see

1187
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:47,760
Speaker 1: the Twitter, Twitter little tag or the host names and

1188
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:50,520
Speaker 1: ambulance names and things like that. But we had our

1189
01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:53,120
Speaker 1: little fan club. We had like eight hundred thousand fan

1190
01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:57,000
Speaker 1: club members, and so we knew when we said out

1191
01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,360
Speaker 1: a fan club to that they wanted us. They signed

1192
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:02,200
Speaker 1: up for that. But like you're saying, you use, you're

1193
01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:05,360
Speaker 1: balancing both. You're balancing what you how you built your

1194
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:09,360
Speaker 1: brand with this new technique, but not leaving the technique

1195
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:12,600
Speaker 1: that started you. And that's really important because as we

1196
01:07:12,640 --> 01:07:14,800
Speaker 1: all know, it's like you know, it's like if you

1197
01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:16,720
Speaker 1: live and if you live your life and only know

1198
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:19,160
Speaker 1: how to live your life through electricity, what's gonna happen

1199
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,560
Speaker 1: when you lose electricity? And that's what you're saying here.

1200
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:24,960
Speaker 1: If you if you built the foundation, and that's what

1201
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:26,640
Speaker 1: we're talking about right now. We're talking about building the

1202
01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:30,800
Speaker 1: foundation that started at your kitchen table, just started on

1203
01:07:30,880 --> 01:07:34,040
Speaker 1: the internet, that started with fan club, just started with emails,

1204
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:36,520
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, this this this social

1205
01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:39,320
Speaker 1: media that has taken over the world. You go, that's

1206
01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:41,960
Speaker 1: just a blessing right there, because we're not gonna stop

1207
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:44,200
Speaker 1: doing what we're doing. We're just gonna add that to

1208
01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 1: the blessing. The opportunity training that really really betimes inspirational.

1209
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:54,720
Speaker 1: Thank you for sharing that on my show. Yeah, you know,

1210
01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:57,760
Speaker 1: just being able to create that foundation. And the key was,

1211
01:07:58,120 --> 01:08:02,080
Speaker 1: you know, making egging conducts truly work. You know during

1212
01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:04,720
Speaker 1: these times there are no tricks, there is no social

1213
01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:08,760
Speaker 1: media marketing. Again, it's it's truly just the foundation um

1214
01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:11,120
Speaker 1: to be able to be built on with social media,

1215
01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 1: with people in music, to spread the good word about

1216
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:16,599

01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:20,280
Speaker 1: did did your paternal grandmother played in your life? That

1218
01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:23,120
Speaker 1: that sounded like some paternal grandmother information that you just

1219
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,160
Speaker 1: broke off on us on the show before we went

1224
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:43,280
Speaker 1: before I left, I did a little you know, a

1225
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:46,240
Speaker 1: little tease and everything about what we're about to talk about.

1226
01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:49,680
Speaker 1: So let's talk about some of the Miss Jesse's signature

1227
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:53,000
Speaker 1: product lines educated not only with Sean mcgone, but my

Speaker 1: listeners because we know it's on the store shelves. You know,

1230
01:09:00,720 --> 01:09:03,160
Speaker 1: stores and things like that. And you know, mostly in

1231
01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:05,120
Speaker 1: in the CVS and the walk when they have an

1232

1235
01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:20,960
Speaker 1: And so let's talk about some of your signature product lines. Well,

1236
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:24,120
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell the Miss Jestice's story proper if I

1237
01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,000
Speaker 1: didn't even create our first product, which was curly putting.

1238
01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:31,200
Speaker 1: Curly putting with the ground breaker, the game changer. It

1239
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:34,479
Speaker 1: was curly. It's the pudding that's purple. It did everything

1240
01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:37,080
Speaker 1: it said it was going to do, returned your fizzy

1241
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:40,640
Speaker 1: flows into curly cues and people just loved it. And

1242
01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:43,360
Speaker 1: then you know, Miss Jesse's were innovators. So later on

1243
01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:46,479
Speaker 1: we will come out with Pelesft Curl. We were able

1244
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: to marry hairkit technology with fabriage ship technology and it

1245
01:09:51,280 --> 01:09:55,400
Speaker 1: gives such a soft and nice, touchable um curl. But

1246
01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:58,679
Speaker 1: that there's also products like jelly Salt curls. Jelly Soft

1247
01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,640

1272
01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:32,360
Speaker 1: that that's like the blessing of the year right there,

1273
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:35,280
Speaker 1: because the Kardashes don't play around what they follow us.

1274
01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:38,760
Speaker 1: They follow us are crazy good and loyal. That's like

1275
01:11:39,120 --> 01:11:41,240
Speaker 1: you can't buy that when when you have somebody that

1276
01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:44,160
Speaker 1: for a post, somebody has to pay a half million

1277
01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:50,800
Speaker 1: dollars to post, you know, they brand how how their

1278
01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:52,840
Speaker 1: engagement and when they tell people to go in a

1279
01:11:52,840 --> 01:11:56,000
Speaker 1: certain direction, what that means for your brand? And that's

1280
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,080
Speaker 1: like I said, if you just keep telling your story.

1281
01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:00,360
Speaker 1: And like I said, when we when you started talking,

1282
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:03,680
Speaker 1: you know, I get curious, So I said, let's see

1283
01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:05,960
Speaker 1: what she's talking about. What she's talking about now with

1284
01:12:06,080 --> 01:12:09,200
Speaker 1: just a website, you're not just kidding you. You've done

1285
01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:13,000
Speaker 1: your research. You know. We may have started on the

1286
01:12:13,080 --> 01:12:16,000
Speaker 1: kitchen table, but you're not on the kitchen table no more,

1287
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:18,759
Speaker 1: not in the two thousand and four when you start

1288
01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:22,200
Speaker 1: in mind, you know you in Miami, you way above

1289
01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:25,559
Speaker 1: the lane. So what what made you believe that you

1290
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:28,120
Speaker 1: needed all this? And I'm just asking a general question

1291
01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:30,679
Speaker 1: because out of curiosity, you know a lot of people

1292
01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:34,040
Speaker 1: want stand the lane. But you got the wavy hair,

1293
01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:38,240
Speaker 1: the curly hair, the tight curly, the kiky hair, which

1294
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:41,960
Speaker 1: lets you know the research that all curly hair is

1295
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:48,040
Speaker 1: not alike, so you have to have so you have

1296
01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,360
Speaker 1: to have, you know, a hair care for that particular style.

1297
01:12:51,680 --> 01:12:53,640
Speaker 1: That's what it is that I am I saying the

1298
01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:58,400
Speaker 1: right things. Well, I'll put this way. You know, whether

1299
01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:02,360
Speaker 1: you curly kick away, there's something for you. You know,

1300
01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:06,559
Speaker 1: it's not uncommon Russian for two people, you know, to

1301
01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:09,679
Speaker 1: use the same products. And that's the thing about clearly

1302
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:12,880
Speaker 1: here is it had a way or dealing with texts here.

1303
01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:16,559
Speaker 1: Miss Steptin's had a wonderful way of speaking to many

1304
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:21,320
Speaker 1: different um cultures, many different ethnicities because there was a

1305
01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:24,240
Speaker 1: common ground. And that's what I love so much about

1306
01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:26,640
Speaker 1: what we do. We're not just talking about, you know,

1307
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 1: the little girl. We're not just talking about we're not

1308
01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:32,439
Speaker 1: just talking to women, We're talking to men. Whether you're

1309
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:37,639
Speaker 1: African American, whether you're Latina, whether you're you know, we

1310
01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 1: we have something for you. And I think we're all

1311
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:43,360
Speaker 1: looking for solutions and it has no color, you know,

1312
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:46,519
Speaker 1: So I think being helpful as the key. So just

1313
01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:48,760
Speaker 1: as you know, we were stay focused on that and

1314
01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:51,680
Speaker 1: we were able to build our products line based on

1315
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,120
Speaker 1: we're just trying to come up with a solution to

1316
01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:59,400
Speaker 1: be helpful. And you're doing and you do a lot

1317
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:01,200
Speaker 1: of people. I interview a lot of people on this

1318
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:03,200
Speaker 1: show and I didn't bless to interview a lot of

1319
01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:07,040
Speaker 1: people in the hair care business. And my number one

1320
01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:11,560
Speaker 1: takeaway is that you provide information. You provide more information

1321
01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:15,840
Speaker 1: about hairstyles than I've ever interviewed anybody on this show.

1322
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:18,080
Speaker 1: Because when I go to this one page, well, you

1323
01:14:18,120 --> 01:14:20,600
Speaker 1: get a description. You actually get a description of what

1324
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:23,360
Speaker 1: a waving hair is. You get a description of what

1325
01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:25,920
Speaker 1: the curly hair is, you get a description of what

1326
01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:29,320
Speaker 1: a kinky hairstyle is. A transitioners whether the what the

1327
01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:32,160
Speaker 1: what type of hairstyle is. In other words, if you

1328
01:14:32,280 --> 01:14:36,240
Speaker 1: don't know, now you know when you come to Miss

1329
01:14:36,320 --> 01:14:40,920
Speaker 1: Jesse and that to me is that that type of

1330
01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:46,160
Speaker 1: detail tells me why you are who you are. You

1331
01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:50,000
Speaker 1: leave no doubt. One thing I've learned is information is

1332
01:14:50,040 --> 01:14:54,639
Speaker 1: what makes people successful. Information and communication is key to success.

1333
01:14:55,360 --> 01:14:59,800
Speaker 1: You know, you sat down and not only launched a

1334
01:14:59,840 --> 01:15:03,400
Speaker 1: new product, but you said, I'm gonna educate people about

1335
01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:07,960
Speaker 1: our product and also tell them how our product works

1336
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:12,640
Speaker 1: for them. You you took out, You took all of

1337
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:15,559
Speaker 1: the all of the was and what they say, doubt

1338
01:15:16,160 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 1: are the questions out of the servant because you're covering

1339
01:15:19,160 --> 01:15:24,360
Speaker 1: every hairstyle here, every hairstyle. So my question to you,

1340
01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:26,200
Speaker 1: my question to you is this. And I don't want

1341
01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:27,880
Speaker 1: to talk too much because this is your show, this

1342
01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:30,920
Speaker 1: is your moment, and I'm just excited because I'm being

1343
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:32,880
Speaker 1: you know, all this great differmat I'm an information guy.

1344
01:15:33,160 --> 01:15:35,560
Speaker 1: When I started getting information, I'm being educated because I

1345
01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:37,120
Speaker 1: started off the show with the little jokes about me

1346
01:15:37,120 --> 01:15:39,160
Speaker 1: being bald headed and they ain't got no hair and

1347
01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:45,519
Speaker 1: all that. Now now I'm like, wow, wow, Miss Jesse

1348
01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:50,679
Speaker 1: is the bomb. She's the original, she's the queen, she's

1349
01:15:50,720 --> 01:15:58,000
Speaker 1: the beast, she's the mover in the shape you and

1350
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:02,719
Speaker 1: I am. I am I putting too much up on you. Well,

1351
01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:05,080
Speaker 1: you know, I think I think ros Sean, I think less.

1352
01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:07,920
Speaker 1: You know, for me, it's just hard for me to

1353
01:16:08,320 --> 01:16:11,759
Speaker 1: not stay focused on our mention and what we're trying

1354
01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:14,719
Speaker 1: to do. And I just nearly stay focused on coming

1355
01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:17,880
Speaker 1: up with those solutions because I know people they want

1356
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:20,439
Speaker 1: to be their best and I think for many years,

1357
01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:24,599
Speaker 1: many of us, particularly the person with the tighter coil curl,

1358
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:27,519
Speaker 1: we have been straightened our hair for so many years.

1359
01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:30,840
Speaker 1: So information was the key. She needed to know that

1360
01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:33,240
Speaker 1: her hair is beautiful. She needed to know that her

1361
01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:36,200
Speaker 1: hair is special, and she needed to be lined up

1362
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:39,280
Speaker 1: with the right products that are gonna make her hair

1363
01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:42,640
Speaker 1: do all the wonderful things that it can do. And

1364
01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:45,840
Speaker 1: I think that's why information was so key. You know,

1365
01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:47,960
Speaker 1: my sister and I spent a lot of time in

1366
01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:51,800
Speaker 1: our kitchen table mixing, and we're also hairstylus. But we

1367
01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:54,760
Speaker 1: realized that our work was not finished and that we

1368
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:57,519
Speaker 1: did had to we did have to educate and just

1369
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,679
Speaker 1: take it, you know, rewind and just start from scratch

1370
01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:04,000
Speaker 1: and just kind of let people know or let them

1371
01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:06,960
Speaker 1: know that this is what we were working with and

1372
01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:09,280
Speaker 1: you have this kind of hair and here are the

1373
01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:11,840
Speaker 1: products that work. That's with that. And I think that

1374
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 1: that communication that you spoke about was really it was

1375
01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:21,120
Speaker 1: it was the foundation for the relationship between Miss Jesse's

1376
01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:24,280
Speaker 1: and our customers. Okay, then you know I'm playing with

1377
01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:26,839
Speaker 1: your website, right, So I'm just going around just clicking

1378
01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 1: the navigation and everything, just reading about your story and

1379
01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:31,600
Speaker 1: just talking about your story to the public and that

1380
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:34,800
Speaker 1: everybody know. I'm in all of Miko Branch and the

1381
01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:38,679
Speaker 1: Miss jesse original brand. Then I came across the curl Bar,

1382
01:17:39,520 --> 01:17:44,280
Speaker 1: Miss Jesse's curl Bar. What is that? That looks so cool?

1383
01:17:44,720 --> 01:17:47,840
Speaker 1: Boot By Appointment down in fourth Lawida there, Florida. See,

1384
01:17:47,960 --> 01:17:51,640
Speaker 1: that wasn't on none of my questions. That sounds so

1385
01:17:51,840 --> 01:17:54,439
Speaker 1: that sounds hot right there. Tell me about the Miss

1386
01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:57,120
Speaker 1: jesse curl Bar that's down there. I'm assuming it's the

1387
01:17:57,160 --> 01:18:02,439
Speaker 1: only location is down in fourth Lawida, Florida. Correct, Well,

1388
01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:05,679
Speaker 1: ra Sean, Mis Jessy's Curlbar was born out of Miss

1389
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:09,880
Speaker 1: Jesse's Salon and MS Salon was actually created and our

1390
01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:12,879
Speaker 1: brownstone in the best of Cybus and section of Brooklyn,

1391
01:18:12,920 --> 01:18:15,960
Speaker 1: which at the time was known as the hood where

1392
01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:19,519
Speaker 1: we built our business. Yes, that is where we built

1393
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,160
Speaker 1: our business and that became our R and D in

1394
01:18:22,160 --> 01:18:25,560
Speaker 1: our testing ground or products that work out here in

1395
01:18:25,600 --> 01:18:30,759
Speaker 1: the market. So part of this Jestine's heritage is the salon.

1396
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:33,840
Speaker 1: It's where we connected with our customer and it's where

1397
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:37,360
Speaker 1: we figure out what products are necessary to be put

1398
01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:39,920
Speaker 1: out here. We don't. We try our best not to

1399
01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:42,320
Speaker 1: come out with products just to put them on shelves

1400
01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:45,160
Speaker 1: to make money. Although we are in the business to

1401
01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:48,559
Speaker 1: ultimately make money, we use that salon to really really

1402
01:18:48,640 --> 01:18:52,120
Speaker 1: understand what's needed. So, whether we're in brook the New York,

1403
01:18:52,120 --> 01:18:54,880
Speaker 1: whether we're in our soho in New York, or whether

1404
01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:58,880
Speaker 1: we're in Florida, Miss Jessie's always loved having a place

1405
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:01,559
Speaker 1: for someone can come in if they hear done, if

1406
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:03,960
Speaker 1: they want you. So now we're in Fort Lauda Dale,

1407
01:19:04,360 --> 01:19:06,360
Speaker 1: so it is by appointment only. If you wanted to

1408
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:08,960
Speaker 1: come and get your hair done, you can. But right

1409

Speaker 1: now most of the states and now in Steed in Florida,

1410
01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:16,880
Speaker 1: due to what's going on, absolutely absolutely a little break. Well.

01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:10,759
Speaker 1: had on your carein is having on your life. Oh man, listen,

1514
01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 1: and you know we've just celebrated our hundred and thirty

1515
01:25:13,160 --> 01:25:17,760
Speaker 1: ninth UH anniversary. Founder's Day was this past weekend, and I,

1516
01:25:18,240 --> 01:25:20,439
Speaker 1: you know, I I did an interview with them as

1517
01:25:20,479 --> 01:25:24,160
Speaker 1: part of our virtual celebration, and I even, it's funny

1518
01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 1: you asked me that, because the first thing I said was,

1519
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:30,240
Speaker 1: you know, Spellman actually became the most valuable for me

1520
01:25:30,439 --> 01:25:33,680
Speaker 1: once I left, because I had no you know, I

1521
01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:37,040
Speaker 1: had no idea that what I was embarking on was

1522
01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:40,360
Speaker 1: not only an amazing education, but it was a global,

1523
01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:45,640
Speaker 1: lifelong network. Um oh yeah, yeah. I mean I've been

1524
01:25:45,640 --> 01:25:48,160
Speaker 1: blessed to travel the world and I have been no

1525
01:25:48,320 --> 01:25:53,280
Speaker 1: place where there's not been somebody affiliated, an alumni, something

1526
01:25:53,600 --> 01:25:57,400
Speaker 1: wanting to go a future student with Spellman. And it's

1527
01:25:57,400 --> 01:25:59,920
Speaker 1: a built in sisterhood. It's a sorority on its own,

1528
01:26:00,439 --> 01:26:03,479
Speaker 1: so you know, and it's never it's never ending. You know,

1529
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:06,120
Speaker 1: we've got all the alumni from from all those years ago,

1530
01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:08,599
Speaker 1: but then every year, we know, Spewman takes in at

1531
01:26:08,640 --> 01:26:13,240
Speaker 1: least another plast of five dynamic women. So the sisterhood

1532
01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:15,960
Speaker 1: continues to grow. And you know when you when you

1533
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:19,640
Speaker 1: get to Spellman freshman year, literally freshman week, um in

1534
01:26:19,680 --> 01:26:23,599
Speaker 1: the freshman welcome, the the advisors and the staff say,

1535
01:26:23,840 --> 01:26:26,559
Speaker 1: you know, choosing Spellman is choosing to change the world.

1536
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:30,160
Speaker 1: And so for me that has been a life mantra,

1537
01:26:30,520 --> 01:26:33,120
Speaker 1: you know, in terms of what can I do to

1538
01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:37,240
Speaker 1: make it different? And and and that's that's my whole passion.

1539
01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:40,519
Speaker 1: It's part of my self purpose and so that comes

1540
01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:44,559
Speaker 1: from Spellman. Now, unfortunately lost my mom my, my literally

1541
01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:47,000
Speaker 1: the first two months of my freshman year, and so

1542
01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:50,640
Speaker 1: Spellman also raised me. You know, I was there the

1543
01:26:51,160 --> 01:26:54,360
Speaker 1: early the early part of my adulthood. So the morals

1544
01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:58,919
Speaker 1: and values of Spellman again, the sisterhood, the appreciation and

1545
01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:03,479
Speaker 1: um and uh and value of education and what it

1546
01:27:03,479 --> 01:27:06,000
Speaker 1: can do for you in society, I mean, all of it.

1547
01:27:06,040 --> 01:27:08,400
Speaker 1: I can't speak enough. And that continues to go. It's

1548
01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:10,680
Speaker 1: not just like I went to Spellman and I'm I'm

1549
01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,040
Speaker 1: an alumni. I mean I talked about someone all the time.

1550
01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:15,759
Speaker 1: Like I said, I may be doing a motivational speech,

1551
01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:18,639
Speaker 1: or working for a corporation or on a movie set

1552
01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:22,559
Speaker 1: or in Ghana, Africa, or philanthromy You know, every walk,

1553
01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:26,360
Speaker 1: every lane of my life, I constantly speak about and

1554
01:27:26,520 --> 01:27:30,479
Speaker 1: have a conversation about the amazingness that spellment is well.

1555
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:33,519
Speaker 1: I love that the tone. That's that's the key because

1556
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,720
Speaker 1: whenever I go through our interview, I've been fortunate on

1557
01:27:36,720 --> 01:27:39,280
Speaker 1: this show, the interview over five hundred people since I

1558
01:27:39,360 --> 01:27:44,439
Speaker 1: launched the show, and I know, and I always go

1559
01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:46,880
Speaker 1: through the resumes of the bios and when I see

1560
01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:49,479
Speaker 1: the HPCU, I pull it out because that's a nugget.

1561
01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:52,200
Speaker 1: I gotta live and pull that nugget out. And so

1562
01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,439
Speaker 1: so because people write because a lot of schools take

1563
01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:56,840
Speaker 1: credit for your success because they're all Amgatan sing that

1564
01:27:56,880 --> 01:27:58,920
Speaker 1: you might have went to a white institution or a

1565
01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:03,320
Speaker 1: traditional institution that's non HPCU. Because Hollywood is dominant. I know,

1566
01:28:03,439 --> 01:28:06,360
Speaker 1: I'm I'm based in Hollywood. I've been in Hollywood's namely two.

1567
01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:09,920
Speaker 1: I know the amount of executives, amount of writers, the

1568
01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:13,240
Speaker 1: amount of producers, the amount of actors and actresses that

1569
01:28:13,320 --> 01:28:16,479
Speaker 1: are really dominating the landscape, just like you and the

1570
01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:20,240
Speaker 1: entertainment arena. And that goes over into music or your

1571
01:28:20,280 --> 01:28:23,720
Speaker 1: rap or your music producer. It's really amazing what HBCUs

1572
01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:25,880
Speaker 1: are doing. And I always like to point that out

1573
01:28:25,960 --> 01:28:29,599
Speaker 1: and let people know that how inspired and how how

1574
01:28:29,720 --> 01:28:31,840
Speaker 1: just you just just you, I just like I just

1575
01:28:31,880 --> 01:28:35,760
Speaker 1: turned on the waterfalls and you started talking. Boom. I know,

1576
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:39,080
Speaker 1: I'm glad you. I'm glad you mentioned all those different

1577
01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:42,639
Speaker 1: avenues because I think not just Spellman or more House

1578
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:45,439
Speaker 1: or the a U Center, but any one of the HBCU.

1579
01:28:45,600 --> 01:28:47,760
Speaker 1: What I think happens is because all of them are

1580
01:28:47,800 --> 01:28:52,040
Speaker 1: such an intimate environment. Um, I think you get another

1581
01:28:52,160 --> 01:28:56,120
Speaker 1: level of attention and guidance then you would at any

1582
01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:59,200
Speaker 1: other institutional university or even an IVY league. You know,

1583
01:28:59,520 --> 01:29:04,559
Speaker 1: absolutely right, and got accepted to Princeton, Yale, Harvard. But

1584
01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:08,800
Speaker 1: I just you know, I was drawn to the intimacy

1585
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:12,720
Speaker 1: and the level of special that someone was showing me

1586
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:15,960
Speaker 1: they weren't and wanted to help me be. You can't

1587
01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:18,680
Speaker 1: beat that, you know, you can't beat that awesome. I'm

1588
01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:22,639
Speaker 1: talking to a J. Johnson TV producers, film Star Life coach,

1589
01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:26,160
Speaker 1: fitness guru. Uh, let's talk about that fitness guru because

1590
01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:28,320
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, you know, a couple of

1591
01:29:28,360 --> 01:29:31,200
Speaker 1: years I had Morris chest out on the show and yeah,

1592
01:29:31,720 --> 01:29:33,960
Speaker 1: the book of the show, and uh, and he had

1593
01:29:33,960 --> 01:29:36,960
Speaker 1: a fitness book out and weight lost book out, and

1594
01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:40,000
Speaker 1: I you know me, I try to invest into my

1595
01:29:40,280 --> 01:29:42,240
Speaker 1: guests if they give a book, I'm gonna read your book.

1596
01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:44,040
Speaker 1: Agent when if you ever have a book come out,

1597
01:29:44,080 --> 01:29:46,679
Speaker 1: he sent you Rushan McDonald. Rushan will read your book

1598
01:29:46,720 --> 01:29:49,120
Speaker 1: before he interviews you. None of that what is about?

1599
01:29:49,240 --> 01:29:53,639
Speaker 1: None of that vague question stuff. So nine pounds, he said,

1600
01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:56,080
Speaker 1: it was the ten pounds and ten days. I lost

1601
01:29:56,320 --> 01:30:01,080
Speaker 1: seven days, I lost nine pounds and in seven days

1602
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:05,680
Speaker 1: and and so I, um, excuse me, ten days, excuse me,

1603
01:30:05,680 --> 01:30:08,479
Speaker 1: I apologize. Ten days I lost nine pounds and I

1604
01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:11,240
Speaker 1: have lost sixteen pounds total since then. And it has

1605
01:30:11,320 --> 01:30:14,600
Speaker 1: changed my life, and it's changed my clothes. You know,

1606
01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:16,960
Speaker 1: my waistline thirty three and a half. I can brag

1607
01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:19,200
Speaker 1: about that now, especially when I talk to my friends.

1608
01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:23,000
Speaker 1: I'm bragging. I'm bragg I'm not I'm not not a

1609
01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:26,800
Speaker 1: j I'm just I'm not you. Now, we're gonna get

1610
01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 1: to you in these apps in a minute. Now, I'm

1611
01:30:28,400 --> 01:30:31,800
Speaker 1: not you. But your boy can say he's thirty three

1612
01:30:31,840 --> 01:30:35,840
Speaker 1: and a half waistline. So how important you know? Because

1613
01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:38,519
Speaker 1: we see you what the what the pandemic and how

1614
01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:41,840
Speaker 1: it's impacting you know, the African American community and I

1615
01:30:41,960 --> 01:30:44,839
Speaker 1: die it so you know I died comes up again.

1616
01:30:45,479 --> 01:30:49,679
Speaker 1: How we're impacted about when when crisis, especially a medical

1617
01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:53,280
Speaker 1: crisis come out. How what is your role as be

1618
01:30:53,439 --> 01:30:55,840
Speaker 1: of being a fitness gruel when it comes not only

1619
01:30:55,920 --> 01:30:58,560
Speaker 1: just to you, to everybody in general, but also for

1620
01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:04,400
Speaker 1: the African American community. I you know, I believe that

1621
01:31:04,680 --> 01:31:07,840
Speaker 1: the reason why I was given the business because I

1622
01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:11,360
Speaker 1: didn't pursue a business that I didn't pursue creating the

1623
01:31:11,439 --> 01:31:14,920
Speaker 1: aj Zone as a business entity. At first, I believe

1624
01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:18,360
Speaker 1: I was called to to share my knowledge. You know.

1625
01:31:18,520 --> 01:31:20,559
Speaker 1: When I first came into the game as an actress,

1626
01:31:21,040 --> 01:31:25,519
Speaker 1: um A a degree from an HBCU wasn't part of

1627
01:31:25,520 --> 01:31:29,240
Speaker 1: the qualification, but who I was as a result of

1628
01:31:29,280 --> 01:31:32,599
Speaker 1: my degrees and my science interest was a big part

1629
01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:34,880
Speaker 1: of me. And so when I spoke to going to

1630
01:31:34,960 --> 01:31:38,160
Speaker 1: sleep as I pursued acting, I said, you know, I've

1631
01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:40,160
Speaker 1: got to do something. There's no reason why I have

1632
01:31:40,280 --> 01:31:43,760
Speaker 1: all this knowledge. I'm now living what I've learned. It's

1633
01:31:43,800 --> 01:31:46,960
Speaker 1: caused a major difference in my life. My like you said,

1634
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:49,880
Speaker 1: my appearance, my life, my energy, my attitude. I've got

1635
01:31:49,880 --> 01:31:51,519
Speaker 1: to you know, I've got to share what I know.

1636
01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:56,559
Speaker 1: And so, you know, again after losing parents to one

1637
01:31:56,600 --> 01:32:00,160
Speaker 1: of the big diseases, I feel like it's it's it's

1638
01:32:00,240 --> 01:32:04,360
Speaker 1: my purpose, passion and calling to share information to save

1639
01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:07,679
Speaker 1: other people. You know, my dad said, literally, my dad

1640
01:32:07,720 --> 01:32:11,360
Speaker 1: said before he passed, like you you've got to share

1641
01:32:11,400 --> 01:32:13,400
Speaker 1: what you know. He's like, you know, you may not

1642
01:32:13,439 --> 01:32:15,679
Speaker 1: be able to save me, but there's so many people

1643
01:32:15,720 --> 01:32:18,439
Speaker 1: who will benefit from what you know and who you are,

1644
01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:21,599
Speaker 1: and know that you're an example of living in it's

1645
01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:23,840
Speaker 1: not many we had. You have to continue to be

1646
01:32:23,920 --> 01:32:27,280
Speaker 1: an example. And unfortunately I lost him, but after I

1647
01:32:27,320 --> 01:32:30,160
Speaker 1: did Baby Boy in two thousand two, but his words

1648
01:32:30,240 --> 01:32:33,640
Speaker 1: stuck with me and so for me, you know, it

1649
01:32:33,680 --> 01:32:36,479
Speaker 1: needs everything and even now you know the fact that

1650
01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:39,400
Speaker 1: we are we are a quarantine because of this, the

1651
01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:43,759
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen and as an African American culture and African culture,

1652
01:32:43,800 --> 01:32:48,840
Speaker 1: you know, I'm very involved. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this whole

1653
01:32:48,920 --> 01:32:53,960
Speaker 1: high blood pressure, diabetes, um asthma, obesity. You know, it's

1654
01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:56,439
Speaker 1: it's not anything new. You know a lot of people

1655
01:32:56,479 --> 01:33:01,080
Speaker 1: are receiving the high numbers of African Americans suffering and

1656
01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:04,680
Speaker 1: dying because of our health risks. As this is some

1657
01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:07,880
Speaker 1: type of new thing. It's not. This was inevitable because

1658
01:33:07,880 --> 01:33:11,960
Speaker 1: we have not yet taken seriously our health prospective. And

1659
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:14,479
Speaker 1: that's not a fingerpoint. That just means I have more

1660
01:33:14,479 --> 01:33:17,800
Speaker 1: work to do, you understand. Absolutely. That's why I actual

1661
01:33:17,840 --> 01:33:21,000
Speaker 1: when I hear those all those those news articles coming out,

1662
01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:24,040
Speaker 1: it's almost like false hype to me, because because the

1663
01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:26,559
Speaker 1: reality is, we have not changed our diet. We're not

1664
01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:29,879
Speaker 1: making an effort. We all over obeast. You know, cholestero.

1665
01:33:29,880 --> 01:33:32,280
Speaker 1: You could throw cholesterol in there too, along with the hyby,

1666
01:33:32,960 --> 01:33:37,720
Speaker 1: the diabetes, the poor eating fried foods, greasy foods, you know,

1667
01:33:37,880 --> 01:33:40,679
Speaker 1: just just just just so, when I see that pop

1668
01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:43,559
Speaker 1: on the screen, it's like, Okay, if you just took

1669
01:33:43,560 --> 01:33:47,200
Speaker 1: away this pandemic, we still will be dying on the

1670
01:33:48,439 --> 01:33:51,040
Speaker 1: great Oh my gosh, I'm so glad you said that,

1671
01:33:51,120 --> 01:33:53,000
Speaker 1: because I want to be able to say that, and

1672
01:33:53,040 --> 01:33:55,760
Speaker 1: I want to shout until every mountaintop I get take

1673
01:33:55,800 --> 01:33:59,200
Speaker 1: away the pandemic. The pandemic just got added on to

1674
01:33:59,320 --> 01:34:02,519
Speaker 1: letting us know and and re renewing our understanding of

1675
01:34:02,560 --> 01:34:05,320
Speaker 1: the position we're in. Because, like you said, take it away,

1676
01:34:05,560 --> 01:34:07,840
Speaker 1: we still are at a higher risk of illness and

1677
01:34:07,840 --> 01:34:11,400
Speaker 1: death because of all of those pre existing health conditions that,

1678
01:34:11,560 --> 01:34:15,080
Speaker 1: mind you, a lot of them can be reversed. Doctors

1679
01:34:15,080 --> 01:34:18,519
Speaker 1: have told many people I I consult um thirty minutes

1680
01:34:18,840 --> 01:34:21,960
Speaker 1: for thirty dollars available at the ajon dot com and

1681
01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:25,840
Speaker 1: our store. So I do consultations across the globe all day,

1682
01:34:25,840 --> 01:34:29,080
Speaker 1: every day, and all I'm hearing is, well, the doctor

1683
01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:31,120
Speaker 1: told me to walk a little bit more every day,

1684
01:34:31,120 --> 01:34:33,120
Speaker 1: and I may not need this half a pill I'm taking.

1685
01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:35,920
Speaker 1: Or the doctor told me to decrease my processed food,

1686
01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:38,160
Speaker 1: or the doctor told me to drink more water, and

1687
01:34:38,160 --> 01:34:42,080
Speaker 1: I probably don't even need medication. And I can't tell you, embarrassingly,

1688
01:34:42,320 --> 01:34:44,759
Speaker 1: how many people don't even listen to those little changes,

1689
01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:50,559
Speaker 1: you know. Scary. I did pastor John Gray on book

1690
01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:52,720
Speaker 1: of John Gray's show on own and he was in

1691
01:34:52,760 --> 01:34:55,759
Speaker 1: the hospital two weeks later. He didn't even need insulin

1692
01:34:55,840 --> 01:34:58,320
Speaker 1: for his diabetes. And all I did was changes food.

1693
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:01,720
Speaker 1: All I did was pumped law suits and vegetables through

1694
01:35:01,720 --> 01:35:04,719
Speaker 1: protein shake smoothie. I've changed a lot of his nutritional

1695
01:35:04,760 --> 01:35:07,080
Speaker 1: lifestyle and in two weeks, not only was he out

1696
01:35:07,080 --> 01:35:10,679
Speaker 1: of the hospital, but he was also insiling. It's doable

1697
01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:13,680
Speaker 1: and people need to believe. People need to believe you

1698
01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:17,920
Speaker 1: can survive these diseases. You can put putt, get less

1699
01:35:17,960 --> 01:35:20,600
Speaker 1: medication for high blood pressure. You can lower your A

1700
01:35:20,720 --> 01:35:23,479
Speaker 1: one C if you're diabetic. It is possible. And if

1701
01:35:23,479 --> 01:35:26,519
Speaker 1: we're going to change our statistics across the world, we

1702
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:30,000
Speaker 1: have to change how we live. Awesome. You are incredible.

1703
01:35:30,080 --> 01:35:32,880
Speaker 1: That is why I built the only show Good Morning.

1704
01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:35,160
Speaker 1: Like I tell you, you came with the energy a

Speaker 1: A J. Johnson. Um this talented, uh fair passion that

Speaker 1: she's a TV producer, she's a life coach. You go

1714
01:36:07,200 --> 01:36:11,719
Speaker 1: thirty mini consultations, fitness, Gurule, philanthropists and uh We talked

1715
01:36:11,800 --> 01:36:16,200
Speaker 1: very heavily about her HBCU background with Spellman College in Atlanta, Georgia,

1716
01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:19,559
Speaker 1: but she cannot get away from what she's been known

1717
01:36:19,680 --> 01:36:24,240
Speaker 1: and has brought us international and national and domestic recognition

1718
01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:28,479
Speaker 1: About your abilities acting A J. Johnson, How you know,

1719
01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:30,760
Speaker 1: how did you get into acting? You know, because your

1720
01:36:30,800 --> 01:36:38,880
Speaker 1: degree is psychology and chemistry. Well, I've always been whatever.

1721
01:36:39,360 --> 01:36:44,240
Speaker 1: First of all, there was a long part well because

1722
01:36:44,240 --> 01:36:46,040
Speaker 1: there's so many different directions that I was trying to

1723
01:36:46,040 --> 01:36:48,280
Speaker 1: figure out which what I was going to go in. Uh,

1724
01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:50,720
Speaker 1: you know, and we're all the time things. I mean

1725
01:36:50,840 --> 01:36:52,639
Speaker 1: we were in general. I would tell you the whole

1726
01:36:52,640 --> 01:36:56,760
Speaker 1: big but you know the quick, the quick version of it,

1727
01:36:56,840 --> 01:37:00,600
Speaker 1: if that. Um, I've always been passionate about performing in

1728
01:37:00,640 --> 01:37:03,559
Speaker 1: the arts. I mean, I grew up performing Arefa Franklin

1729
01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:06,680
Speaker 1: songs at our our Eastern dinners, you know, our Thanksgiving

1730
01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:10,080
Speaker 1: and so that led to my parents putting me in

1731
01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:15,599
Speaker 1: um performing classes, dancing, acting, modeling, and I loved it.

1732
01:37:15,840 --> 01:37:18,080
Speaker 1: And even though I grew up in an academic household,

1733
01:37:18,120 --> 01:37:20,479
Speaker 1: you know, my parents went to HBCUs. My dad was

1734
01:37:20,520 --> 01:37:22,720
Speaker 1: to Howard, my mom went to Chainey, my brothers went

1735
01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:26,000
Speaker 1: to went to higher education. Institutions. I knew that that

1736
01:37:26,160 --> 01:37:28,120
Speaker 1: was the first thing I knew I was never gonna

1737
01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:30,920
Speaker 1: be able to just go into a career of the arts.

1738
01:37:30,920 --> 01:37:34,000
Speaker 1: And I'm so glad my parents didn't allow it because

1739
01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:37,640
Speaker 1: again because of my experience of Spellman, the confidence it

1740
01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,879
Speaker 1: built in me. Um, you know, the the other dynamic

1741
01:37:40,920 --> 01:37:43,040
Speaker 1: of my life. I wouldn't have the level of a

1742
01:37:43,040 --> 01:37:45,680
Speaker 1: healthy living business like the AJ Zone had I not

1743
01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:49,719
Speaker 1: gone to school. Um just but not not because of passion,

1744
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:52,320
Speaker 1: but just because it gives me the credibility that a

1745
01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:54,400
Speaker 1: lot of other people in healthy living and fitness do

1746
01:37:54,479 --> 01:37:58,439
Speaker 1: not have. And so I just believe that acting was

1747
01:37:58,520 --> 01:38:01,200
Speaker 1: something I thought I was going to try. Even my

1748
01:38:01,280 --> 01:38:03,280
Speaker 1: dad said, go to l A, get it out of

1749
01:38:03,320 --> 01:38:06,120
Speaker 1: your system, go dance in some music videos, go get shift,

1750
01:38:06,600 --> 01:38:09,280
Speaker 1: and get your butt back to med school. And literally

1751
01:38:09,400 --> 01:38:11,880
Speaker 1: in the first yeah, in the first thirty days of

1752
01:38:12,040 --> 01:38:16,479
Speaker 1: landing in Hollywood, I started working. I was doing bit roles,

1753
01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:19,639
Speaker 1: guest starring Jamie Fox um Fresh Prince. At the time

1754
01:38:19,880 --> 01:38:21,920
Speaker 1: I ran into Keena and I VWA and that run

1755
01:38:21,920 --> 01:38:24,439
Speaker 1: in landed me the choreography job for a Living Color

1756
01:38:24,640 --> 01:38:26,759
Speaker 1: as a fly girl, I mean, And then of course

1757
01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:29,160
Speaker 1: that landed me the role and even being considered for

1758
01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:32,760
Speaker 1: house party, So you know, it was something that I

1759
01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:36,040
Speaker 1: was exploring of. You know, don't be afraid check all

1760
01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:39,559
Speaker 1: your options, fuel your passions. As just something that happened

1761
01:38:39,560 --> 01:38:42,320
Speaker 1: to hit and I loved it. So it's really a story.

1762
01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:44,599
Speaker 1: I mean, the bottom line is for for anyone listening,

1763
01:38:44,840 --> 01:38:48,360
Speaker 1: I feel like the real true story is don't tuck

1764
01:38:48,400 --> 01:38:50,880
Speaker 1: yourself out of what you love, even if it's a

1765
01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:53,720
Speaker 1: completely different lane than what you feel like you've been

1766
01:38:53,760 --> 01:38:56,040
Speaker 1: prepared for. I was supposed to go to med school.

1767
01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:58,640
Speaker 1: I studied at an amazing four year institution to go

1768
01:38:58,840 --> 01:39:02,120
Speaker 1: to as premy but I had another passion, and here

1769
01:39:02,120 --> 01:39:06,160
Speaker 1: we are, Yes, you are what My degree is in mathematics.

1770
01:39:06,280 --> 01:39:08,640
Speaker 1: I work for IBM before I decided to pursue a

1771
01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:11,599
Speaker 1: career as a stand up comedian. And so I totally

1772
01:39:11,640 --> 01:39:14,680
Speaker 1: agree because sometimes you can always tell people you know,

1773
01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:16,559
Speaker 1: people will point you in the right direction, but that

1774
01:39:16,600 --> 01:39:19,160
Speaker 1: doesn't mean you have to live that point, live that

1775
01:39:19,200 --> 01:39:21,320
Speaker 1: direction they're pointing. You have to wake up one day

1776
01:39:21,320 --> 01:39:23,160
Speaker 1: and say, what is it making me happy? What is

1777
01:39:23,200 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 1: motivating me to get out of bed? The reason you

1778
01:39:25,640 --> 01:39:28,160
Speaker 1: enthuseda this morning and talking so strong because you you

1779
01:39:28,479 --> 01:39:30,160
Speaker 1: like your life. You're doing what you want to do

1780
01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:32,120
Speaker 1: in your life, and a lot of people don't do that.

1781
01:39:32,160 --> 01:39:34,680
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't do that. And let me

1782
01:39:34,720 --> 01:39:36,960
Speaker 1: just add this, if you think about it, you know,

1783
01:39:37,080 --> 01:39:40,560
Speaker 1: being an entertainment or even just loving that degree of entertainment,

1784
01:39:40,720 --> 01:39:43,960
Speaker 1: but also being armed with my degrees and my passion

1785
01:39:44,040 --> 01:39:48,759
Speaker 1: for science, it helps me create a whole different, perfect

1786
01:39:48,840 --> 01:39:52,240
Speaker 1: for me if I can say that, um perfect for

1787
01:39:52,320 --> 01:39:54,800
Speaker 1: me brand of healthy living. You know, I could be

1788
01:39:54,840 --> 01:39:58,160
Speaker 1: a typical doctor in a white lab coat or a researcher.

1789
01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:00,920
Speaker 1: But you know, I decide that that there was a

1790
01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:04,360
Speaker 1: way that I wanted to and possibly could do this

1791
01:40:04,360 --> 01:40:07,840
Speaker 1: this medicine thing. And so my lane is just different

1792
01:40:07,840 --> 01:40:10,639
Speaker 1: than the way somebody else does. But but interestingly enough,

1793
01:40:10,720 --> 01:40:13,000
Speaker 1: I still have friends that are at CDC. I have

1794
01:40:13,080 --> 01:40:15,559
Speaker 1: friends that are at the World Health Organization. You know,

1795
01:40:15,600 --> 01:40:18,479
Speaker 1: I still have friends in the scientists. So when something

1796
01:40:18,560 --> 01:40:21,120
Speaker 1: like this happens, like this pandemic, I have friends to

1797
01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:23,000
Speaker 1: go to get the real information. I'm not just sitting

1798
01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:26,960
Speaker 1: around watching TELEVI right right, like me, like me, let's

1799
01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:30,200
Speaker 1: get on and even sharing that information. It's like, you know,

1800
01:40:30,280 --> 01:40:34,120
Speaker 1: I've been put in position that I think is amazing, right, absolutely,

1801
01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:36,679
Speaker 1: and I respected and I appreciate the Irban Movie Channel

1802
01:40:36,760 --> 01:40:39,960
Speaker 1: the show Stuck with You, the relationship show. First of all,

1803
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:42,160
Speaker 1: the title is stuck with You. I love you know

1804
01:40:42,240 --> 01:40:45,120
Speaker 1: because it has you know, you know it's because we've

1805
01:40:45,120 --> 01:40:48,040
Speaker 1: said that it can like lead you to believe that

1806
01:40:48,120 --> 01:40:51,640
Speaker 1: it's just the best I'm gonna do. Uh, do you

1807
01:40:51,760 --> 01:40:54,760
Speaker 1: have any other options? You're stuck. I'm stuck with you.

1808
01:40:55,320 --> 01:40:57,600
Speaker 1: So that title, first of all attracted me to it.

1809
01:40:57,720 --> 01:41:00,479
Speaker 1: What attracted you to the series and to get into

1810
01:41:00,520 --> 01:41:02,000
Speaker 1: the characters and have made it. But first of all,

1811
01:41:02,080 --> 01:41:04,519
Speaker 1: it's all about you A. J. Johnson. You know, nobody

1812
01:41:04,560 --> 01:41:10,080
Speaker 1: else stuff with you, chel, it's all about you MC channel.

1813
01:41:10,240 --> 01:41:13,360
Speaker 1: Well I was. I was attracted to the same thing, honestly,

1814
01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:14,960
Speaker 1: And you know, going a little bit deeper into what

1815
01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:18,400
Speaker 1: the story is, it's exactly that, like what happens behind

1816
01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:22,479
Speaker 1: the scene and these high profile celebrity relationships that may

1817
01:41:22,520 --> 01:41:25,759
Speaker 1: not be based in foundation and love, honor and cherished

1818
01:41:25,760 --> 01:41:28,720
Speaker 1: for death thy part. And so it may be a

1819
01:41:28,760 --> 01:41:32,719
Speaker 1: career move, it may be what's holding the bank account together?

1820
01:41:32,960 --> 01:41:35,320
Speaker 1: And if so, what are the choices that have to

1821
01:41:35,360 --> 01:41:38,720
Speaker 1: be made in living that lifestyle, and so Stuff with

1822
01:41:38,800 --> 01:41:42,080
Speaker 1: You kind of does a nice romantic comedy perspective and

1823
01:41:42,200 --> 01:41:46,360
Speaker 1: view intimately into a few relationships that are in that position.

1824
01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:49,120
Speaker 1: You know, does it work? How does it work? As

1825
01:41:49,240 --> 01:41:52,280
Speaker 1: you continue in a relationship that seems to be on

1826
01:41:52,320 --> 01:41:56,160
Speaker 1: the outside so avazing and hashtag relationship goals, as we

1827
01:41:56,200 --> 01:41:58,840
Speaker 1: say on social media, but when it's really not that

1828
01:41:58,920 --> 01:42:02,599
Speaker 1: on the inside. What is that about? So their character's

1829
01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:06,599
Speaker 1: name is Stephanie, right, Yes, I love Stephanie. I love

1830
01:42:06,920 --> 01:42:12,679
Speaker 1: and Stephanie Stefanie. Stephanie is the best friend of Candice,

1831
01:42:12,880 --> 01:42:15,120
Speaker 1: who was the lead actress who's in the relationships to

1832
01:42:15,400 --> 01:42:19,160
Speaker 1: best friends, as well as the publicist for UM and

1833
01:42:19,200 --> 01:42:23,280
Speaker 1: it's Tammy Townsend does an amazing job with Candice, and uh,

1834
01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:26,639
Speaker 1: all the actors are amazing, But Stephanie is the publicist

1835
01:42:26,720 --> 01:42:30,439
Speaker 1: and best friend of the lead couple. UM, so that

1836
01:42:30,439 --> 01:42:32,640
Speaker 1: that wasn't a stretch, you know, publicist, you know you

1837
01:42:32,640 --> 01:42:34,760
Speaker 1: wouldn't that that was a world you live in on

1838
01:42:34,800 --> 01:42:37,639
Speaker 1: a daily basis. Marketing and Brandon, so they really didn't

1839
01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:40,559
Speaker 1: have to think too much about being a publicist. Well

1840
01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:45,160
Speaker 1: that's true, but because I've never actually played one on FELM.

1841
01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:50,519
Speaker 1: I actually had a great time using my marketing center.

1842
01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:55,320
Speaker 1: The business savvy, yeah you know, and even just you know,

1843
01:42:55,479 --> 01:42:58,360
Speaker 1: I have a great publicist, you know, um sheth Armstrong

1844
01:42:58,400 --> 01:43:00,920
Speaker 1: of pr work and you know she amazing, And so

1845
01:43:01,200 --> 01:43:05,960
Speaker 1: I patterned Stephanie after a lot of Patrisa's no nonsense.

1846
01:43:06,000 --> 01:43:08,160
Speaker 1: She spells it out. Here's what we're gonna do. I mean,

1847
01:43:08,200 --> 01:43:10,080
Speaker 1: Katrinsas we're ever telling me what I don't want to

1848
01:43:10,080 --> 01:43:11,720
Speaker 1: do something, she's saying, no, let me tell you why

1849
01:43:11,720 --> 01:43:15,439
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it. That from the employed, that kind

1850
01:43:15,439 --> 01:43:18,400
Speaker 1: of attitude and energy and expertise in the Stephanie and

1851
01:43:18,479 --> 01:43:21,400
Speaker 1: we had a blast which I which plays out in

1852
01:43:21,240 --> 01:43:23,679
Speaker 1: the in the show on the loan basis. Now, when

1853
01:43:23,680 --> 01:43:25,760
Speaker 1: you when you do a show like this, it's called

1854
01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:27,920

01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:02,280
Speaker 1: Sharon will work. I always have been involved and have

1866

Speaker 1: mean then you know more than anything, you know. That's

1873
01:44:31,160 --> 01:44:33,800
Speaker 1: so so when I went to Ghana. I went to

1874
01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:36,640
Speaker 1: Ghana just because at first I had never been to

1875
01:44:36,680 --> 01:44:40,960
Speaker 1: the continent. Um Full Circle Festival. A group of Hollywood

1876
01:44:41,000 --> 01:44:44,960
Speaker 1: personality that were Ghani and American were going, and so

1877
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:46,720
Speaker 1: I said, listen, you know, the best way for me

1878
01:44:46,760 --> 01:44:49,080
Speaker 1: to expore Africa is with people I know, you know,

1879
01:44:49,120 --> 01:44:51,519
Speaker 1: on the level of travel that I love, and let

1880
01:44:51,520 --> 01:44:54,839
Speaker 1: me see what happens. I had no idea that Ghanna

1881
01:44:54,960 --> 01:44:57,080
Speaker 1: was going to embrace me and I would embrace Ghana

1882
01:44:57,439 --> 01:44:59,720
Speaker 1: like it like it happened in two thousand nineteen. It

1883
01:44:59,760 --> 01:45:03,120
Speaker 1: was the Year of Return. And when I realized that

1884
01:45:03,200 --> 01:45:06,360
Speaker 1: returning to Africa in the Year of Return had to

1885
01:45:06,439 --> 01:45:09,679
Speaker 1: mean something special, I started praying and asking God what

1886
01:45:09,760 --> 01:45:12,000
Speaker 1: was the job he would have me do? Because I

1887
01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:14,599
Speaker 1: already live on a on a space of nothing's random,

1888
01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:18,000
Speaker 1: nothing's coincident. And so I started working with the Bord

1889
01:45:18,040 --> 01:45:20,519
Speaker 1: of Tourism. I started connecting and doing projects with the

1890
01:45:20,560 --> 01:45:25,559
Speaker 1: President's office. And now excuse me, now I'm connected to

1891
01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:28,280
Speaker 1: and I'm doing projects with the U. S. Embassy and Ghana.

1892
01:45:28,400 --> 01:45:30,000
Speaker 1: A matter of fact, I was all my way to

1893
01:45:30,040 --> 01:45:33,280
Speaker 1: Ghana when this quarantine hit. I can't wait for my

1894
01:45:33,320 --> 01:45:36,040
Speaker 1: work to be to be rescheduled. I'm sitting here staring

1895
01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:44,639
Speaker 1: at my Ghana suitcases right now. I never oh Gaki,

1896
01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:47,680
Speaker 1: I got two big old suitcases staring at me right

1897
01:45:47,720 --> 01:45:50,120
Speaker 1: now in my living world, but I refused to unpack.

1898
01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:53,720
Speaker 1: I was literally days away from my trip, and I

1899
01:45:54,360 --> 01:45:57,439
Speaker 1: know that when this pandemic quarantine is over, I'm getting

1900
01:45:57,439 --> 01:45:59,160
Speaker 1: on a plane that I'm out of here. But you know,

1901
01:45:59,280 --> 01:46:02,360
Speaker 1: I also a shot off for Ghana because they're they're

1902
01:46:02,400 --> 01:46:06,040
Speaker 1: doing an amazing job with this whole pandemic. Um, but

1903
01:46:06,120 --> 01:46:07,960
Speaker 1: you know that there's still a third wall country and

1904
01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:10,840
Speaker 1: they need help from their brothers and sisters, you know,

1905
01:46:10,960 --> 01:46:14,240
Speaker 1: across the world. But I love you know, I've got

1906
01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:16,360
Speaker 1: a project that I created car I and my Sister's

1907
01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:20,040
Speaker 1: Keeper where I'm connecting successful women with some of the

1908
01:46:20,080 --> 01:46:23,920
Speaker 1: Astracan female teenagers just to be you know, um mentors

1909
01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:28,320
Speaker 1: Global mentors. Mentoring is very important, isn't that a lot

1910
01:46:28,320 --> 01:46:31,160
Speaker 1: of people are just understands that. But it's so important,

1911
01:46:31,520 --> 01:46:33,840
Speaker 1: and I hear it so strong because I'm gonna I'm

1912
01:46:33,840 --> 01:46:35,760
Speaker 1: gonna just stop you all this. You know, you said, Hey, Richard,

1913
01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:39,320
Speaker 1: I'm really I got into being a philanthropy late in life.

1914
01:46:39,360 --> 01:46:42,360
Speaker 1: But your voice and I know about your background, okay,

1915
01:46:42,800 --> 01:46:45,800
Speaker 1: you have in the mentoring to me is another form

1916
01:46:45,840 --> 01:46:49,120
Speaker 1: of being a philanthropist, you know, helping people, reaching back,

1917
01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:53,040
Speaker 1: you know, health wise. See it, don't let that title

1918
01:46:53,160 --> 01:46:55,840
Speaker 1: stop you from being the brand and the machine you've

1919
01:46:55,880 --> 01:46:59,479
Speaker 1: been all your life, a motivator and a life changer,

1920
01:47:00,160 --> 01:47:02,960
Speaker 1: giving people advice on how to live the right life,

1921
01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:05,880
Speaker 1: the best life, the better life. And so Ghana has

1922
01:47:05,920 --> 01:47:09,760
Speaker 1: just embraced you with a bigger country now. So but

1923
01:47:09,880 --> 01:47:12,599
Speaker 1: you've been you don't just walk into being doing what

1924
01:47:12,600 --> 01:47:15,600
Speaker 1: you're doing in Ghana. That has been inceded in you

1925
01:47:15,720 --> 01:47:20,519
Speaker 1: by your parents and then spell when nurtured it, and

1926
01:47:20,520 --> 01:47:22,679
Speaker 1: when you walked out into the real world, you didn't

1927
01:47:22,680 --> 01:47:25,799
Speaker 1: allow you didn't lose balance, and you maintain that balance.

1928
01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:28,240
Speaker 1: And so Ghana's kind of like a part of the

1929
01:47:28,320 --> 01:47:30,840
Speaker 1: legacy that you've always been building on. That's all I

1930
01:47:30,840 --> 01:47:33,800
Speaker 1: gotta say about that. I don't, I can't, I can't

1931
01:47:33,560 --> 01:47:35,840
Speaker 1: I bring you. One of the reasons I brought your

1932
01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:38,160
Speaker 1: own the show was because you do live a three

1933
01:47:38,160 --> 01:47:40,479
Speaker 1: sixty life, and because you live a three secrets and

1934
01:47:40,520 --> 01:47:43,320
Speaker 1: you've always lived a three sixty life. It's important people

1935
01:47:43,320 --> 01:47:47,240
Speaker 1: to understand how and how you've been impacting the them

1936
01:47:47,240 --> 01:47:51,240
Speaker 1: domestically and now the world well that you know, and I,

1937
01:47:51,360 --> 01:47:53,400
Speaker 1: like I said, I feel like it's all on purpose,

1938
01:47:53,640 --> 01:47:56,840
Speaker 1: you know, even so so so okay, So now we

1939
01:47:56,960 --> 01:48:00,320
Speaker 1: add Banna and a whole another continent and country. You know.

1940
01:48:00,560 --> 01:48:03,320
Speaker 1: Even this past holiday, I went to Ivy Coast. I

1941
01:48:03,960 --> 01:48:06,960
Speaker 1: planned to see Senegal before this year's over. So I'm

1942
01:48:07,000 --> 01:48:10,600
Speaker 1: expanding my existence on the continent and learning more and

1943
01:48:10,600 --> 01:48:13,320
Speaker 1: more what what help I can be. But I just

1944
01:48:13,360 --> 01:48:17,920
Speaker 1: think that it's also awesome speaking a three sixty now entrepreneurially,

1945
01:48:18,479 --> 01:48:22,400
Speaker 1: I'm acting again with you step be four. But but

1946
01:48:22,520 --> 01:48:24,120
Speaker 1: the way that I want to do it, you know,

1947
01:48:24,160 --> 01:48:27,800
Speaker 1: now it's no longer the thing. It's a thing in

1948
01:48:27,840 --> 01:48:30,559
Speaker 1: my life and that and that's what I wanted, not

1949
01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:33,000
Speaker 1: even knowing to call it that, I wanted it to

1950
01:48:33,040 --> 01:48:37,760
Speaker 1: be less stressful. I wanted it to be more fun. Um, Hollywood,

1951
01:48:37,760 --> 01:48:39,840
Speaker 1: it's filled with a lot of pressures. People don't People

1952
01:48:39,880 --> 01:48:42,760
Speaker 1: see the light camera action to finished products, products, and

1953
01:48:42,800 --> 01:48:45,120
Speaker 1: they don't realize that we go through to even land

1954
01:48:45,120 --> 01:48:47,880
Speaker 1: the job, do the job, you know, hopefully still you know,

1955
01:48:47,920 --> 01:48:49,599
Speaker 1: not get edited out of the job. I mean, it's

1956
01:48:49,640 --> 01:48:52,160
Speaker 1: a lot of stress and pressures. But now it's turned

1957
01:48:52,160 --> 01:48:55,360
Speaker 1: into fund for me as my travel world doing everything

1958
01:48:55,360 --> 01:48:57,840
Speaker 1: else I'm doing. So I like what you said. I've

1959
