8
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,639
Speaker 3: This is a budd It's original. You brewed the tea

9
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 3: last week.

10
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 2: I know I took a media Yeah, I took a

11
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 2: little social media cleans last week and completely missed the

12
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 2: fact that one of our clips, what Tiffany, went viral.

13
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,559
Speaker 2: So if you guys have not listened to last week's

14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: B A Q and A, we talk about online mentorship

15
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: communities and are they scams? Are they not as scams?

16
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 2: And Tiffany's take damn one hundred and fifty something.

17
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,199
Speaker 3: Comments, I know how many views? Like sixty something thousand views,

18
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: almost seventy thousand views. I was like, aha, we dust

19
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 3: you touch a nerve, I nerve? I know, why do

20
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 3: you think people are? What's what's the feedback?

21
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 2: Mostly been like it seems like people were like, hell, yeah,

22
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: speak on it.

23
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know that's really been I think because we

24
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: are entering into like this strange space where everybody is teaching,

25
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: which there's nothing wrong with that. It's because if you

26
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: have some knowledge, teach it, that's great. But some people

27
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 1: are not credible. If I'm going to be all be honest,

28
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: you know, like they're not they're not positioned to be

29
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 1: the teacher because there's just a lack of experience, a

30
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: lack of knowledge, a lack of maybe certification whatever. So

31
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: there are You don't need all those things for every

32
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: single thing, but there's certain things you do. Like example,

33
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: I would want my doctor to be certified, you know,

34
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: like I want him to be like to have his

35
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: doctor degree.

36
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 3: He should do that.

37
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: But for I follow one of my favorite skincare gurus.

38
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: Her name is Felicia. This that beauty on Insta toughly

39
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: so I say, hey girl, she's from New York too,

40
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: but I love Felicia. Felicia is a woman of a

41
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 1: so new usual way and she's got beautiful skin. Felicia

42
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: is not an esthetician.

43
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 3: She's not.

44
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: She's just beautiful black girl that tries these different products

45
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: and products and services and then reports back. She doesn't

46
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 1: say I'm an esthetician. She's like I tried this. This

47
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: is what it did for my skin. My skin tends

48
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: to be this. It's you know, so, but I'm not.

49
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. I don't need Felicia to have

50
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: gone to skin school, you know, because that's not what

51
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: she's purporting. She's just like, I'm a black girl who

52
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: loves skin stuff. I try all the things, so you

53
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 1: don't have to. This is what worked for me, didn't

54
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: work for you. You know, use that how you will.

55
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: And so I'm certainly I think Nitdy and I were

56
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: on the same page and that we're not saying that

57
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: you can't teach unless do that, but there are some

58
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: instances where we have seen people are teaching and we're like.

59
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 3: Really, okay, I'm confused.

60
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: About where that novegs came from. It tas Mandy earlier

61
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: pre pre podcast taping chat. I was like, it's like,

62
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: you know, nineteen year old man.

63
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 3: It's like I just.

64
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: Graduated college and now I'm going to be, you know,

65
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: a career coach. Meanwhile, that Mandy had not had a

66
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: career yet, So where where's that knowledge coming from?

67
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 3: That doesn't make sense.

68
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: But now you've got season still young Mandy, but she's

69
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: had a number of careers, a number of jobs, a

70
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: number of twists and turns that allows her, through that experience,

71
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: to share from that place and now she's like.

72
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 3: The number one career coach. If you do, if I do,

73
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 3: say so much, I mean according to Tiffany, that's on

74
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 3: the fine print. You know, Mandy, what do you think

75
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 3: about it?

76
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: Because like if you look at that clip on ig,

77
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 1: it's like, I mean, it's not I'm not I don't

78
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: think I'm being super sassy or anything.

79
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 3: Not at all.

80
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: I mean I agree with the fundamentally what you're saying,

81
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: the fact that, but I think what are our key

82
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 2: message is that it's as consumers, you know, our listeners

83
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: if there are if you're out there, and the thing

84
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 2: is there are a lot of people offering their expertise

85
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: now and offering. Yes, we see courses, you see communities,

86
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 2: you have like you know, subscription based services where they

87
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 2: are coaching you or educating you in some way, or

88
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 2: maybe it's just a one time thing, you know, pay

89
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 2: for this download where in this download I'll give you

90
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: a worksheet or you know, a step by step guide

91
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 2: or something like that. I think we really really like

92
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 2: a core message is to be really careful as you

93
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: shop online and to look for credibility, look for where

94
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 2: does this authority coming from? Where like the key things

95
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 2: you should ask. First of all, I think it's on

96
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: creators like our you know, educators, on us to really

97
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 2: share our story and to share where our source of

98
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 2: knowledge comes from and give people all the information. So

99
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 2: if you don't think, after you've read everything about me

100
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 2: and my career that I'm the person for you.

101
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 3: That's okay.

102
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 2: That's why I am like a Hella transparent with who

103
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 2: I am, my story, my experience, and over the past

104
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: the course of the past year, becoming obsessed with my

105
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: ideal client and who who am I most beneficial for

106
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 2: so that I can really target you know, that consumer

107
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 2: and the rest of people won't be interested in working

108
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 2: with me and I'm not the right fit for them,

109
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So I think educators need

110
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: to be really specific and honest with who they are,

111
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 2: and as consumers, we have to be you know, we

112
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 2: can't believe in like this Messiah complex that there's one

113
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 2: person who's got all the answers and they're going to

114
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 2: solve all my problems. Like, be realistic about what it

115
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 2: is that you are, whether you're deciding to buy a

116
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: course or download something, what is the person advertising that

117
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 2: it's going to be and what's your expectation going in?

118
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 3: And then what's their proof? Like where the.

119
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 2: Testimonials at, where's the proof of excellence?

120
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,360
Speaker 3: Are they being quoted anywhere? Have they written a book?

121
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 3: You know? What does it say about on their about page?

122
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 3: Actually verify that the.

123
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 2: Person is being honest about their background, Like it's there

124
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 2: are people out there and it's not even that they

125
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 2: don't have the experience, it's that people like maybe they're

126
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 2: positioning themselves in a way to make people think that

127
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: they are expert in something and the realities that they're not. Yeah,

128
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: and like those people end up purchasing something or subscribing

129
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 2: to something and then they're like, wait a second, I'm

130
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 2: not getting what I thought I was going to get

131
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: out of this. At that point, it's like that gray area, right,

132
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 2: Is it a scam? Or is it like were you

133
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: maybe expecting something that they didn't actually advertise or they

134
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: just didn't fill in some gaps and you did it yourself,

135
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 2: you know, and ended up in a situation where you

136
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 2: weren't actually happy with what you got.

137
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 3: It's it's messy. It is because here's the thing.

138
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:40,480
Speaker 1: Right, So on the surface, you could easily say like, oh, well, like,

139
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: for example, I believe that if you are coaching in business,

140
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: you ought to have had a business outside of this coaching,

141
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: Like before you coach me in business whatever. That looks

142
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: like maybe you were coaching in retail before, which is fine,

143
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: you know, but not that the only business you have

144
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,920
Speaker 1: is coaching in business and that's what you're doing, and

145
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: that's the only job you've ever had, right, because then

146
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: it's just like this weird loop of like, well, what

147
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: came first, the chicken or the egg? Your experience or

148
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: you only got experience because you practiced on me. So

149
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 1: that's one I was talking to my mentee last night

150
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 1: and she was like, well, I can tell she was.

151
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 3: Struggling with it, like because she coaches.

152
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: And she was like, well, not all football coaches were

153
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: like in the NFL like NFL coaches.

154
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, but that's but they all played football.

155
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: Meaning I'm not saying they played football professionally. But if

156
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: you've never picked up a football ever in your life,

157
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: you have never thrown one, you've never you where does

158
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: that you're coaching from what space. You don't know how

159
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: the game is played, You don't know how the ball feels,

160
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: you don't you know, like coaches don't have to that

161
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: kind of coach. It's not required that you were in

162
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: the NFL, but at some point you.

163
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 3: Had to have at least played football, you.

164
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: Know what I mean, even just recreationally, because there's some

165
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: nuance that you gather from the experience. That's not the

166
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: same for all things. Like my therapist, before she was

167
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: my therapist, she was a a coach for me.

168
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 3: Now here's the thing. When she was my coach, did

169
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 3: she need to be a therapist? Now?

170
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 1: So like a personal coach to me does not necessarily

171
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: have to have a doctorate like she doctor Green is doctor.

172
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: She does not necessarily have to have a doctor.

173
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 3: Because I've had.

174
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: Personal coaches before, they weren't Also, they didn't have their

175
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: degree in psychology. That was an added bonus. But as

176
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: a personal coach, that was not That wasn't a requirement

177
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 1: for me. But then when I was looking for a therapists,

178
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: it absolutely was a requirement that this person is certified

179
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: as a therapist. So do you see that, like like

180
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: there are it's not all the way across the board

181
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: where it's like no, no, no, you know, you absolutely

182
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: have to have these things in order to be able

183
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: to teach a thing.

184
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,199
Speaker 3: I think it's really nuanced.

185
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: And I heard someone say like, yeah, because if someone's

186
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: not doing better than me, they can't coach, and I

187
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 1: disagree with that too. I was giving you the example earlier,

188
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: the idea of my friend Cabrell. His mother, Miss Denise,

189
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: she Cabrell's mother. Her parents started an eyeglass store called Elegantize,

190
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: and it's based here in Newark. And they have you know,

191
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 1: they have been to the riots, they have been here,

192
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: I mean a year over sixty years, I believe organized

193
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 1: has been in business. So from grandparents, parents to now

194
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 1: Cabrell and his sister. Now, I mean, if I'm being candid,

195
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: I probably have made more money, you know, in my

196
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,680
Speaker 1: business than maybe that you know, than the eye glass

197
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: store has made. Right, But there's no way that like,

198
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: I mean, one of my number one go to people

199
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: when I'm needing like business acumen, it's Cabral And his

200
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 1: mother knows even more because she has been in business

201
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 1: for like fifty years and so I mean not only

202
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: has she had elegantized. At one point she owned an ihop,

203
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: at one point she owned a Jamaican restaurant. At one

204
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: point she owned an apartment complex. I mean, miss Denise

205
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,959
Speaker 1: is so well well, I remember asking Cabrel because she's

206
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 1: so chilling, laid back, you know, not I'll get ready

207
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 1: and now I.

208
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 3: Gotta be on social myself included. But that old school

209
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 3: you know, they just did it. You know. So I'm like,

210
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 3: I'm like, can your mom? Can your mom be my mentor?

211
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,719
Speaker 3: He was like what mister Niece was like, girl, what

212
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:08,439
Speaker 3: you're talking about?

213
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: You know, because but I mean she is a wealth

214
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: of knowledge, despite on the surface that might look like, well, Tiffy,

215
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: you've made such and such. No, no, no, no, no no, I

216
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: cannot hold a candle to her level of knowledge because

217
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: there are some so there are some mentors that to

218
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:28,680
Speaker 1: me require a deeper level of experience in order because

219
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: business is so nuanced. It's not something that you can

220
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: do on the sidelines and then tell somebody about. You

221
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: have to be in it. And so yeah, so me

222
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: and Manny were just talking about, like, you know, like,

223
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 1: what what is you know when you're looking if the

224
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 1: onness is not just on like the people that teach,

225
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: but also those of you that buy, making sure that

226
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:49,040
Speaker 1: you're mindful of like what is it that you need

227
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: from your coach? What level experience are you needing asking

228
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 1: those questions? Are you even ready for coaching if you're

229
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: spending ten twenty thousand dollars, which if that's how much

230
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: a cost, that's how much a cost. I'm not here

231
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: to shame. Coach charges a lot of money, but you know,

232
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: are you even in position? I didn't start paying that

233
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 1: kind of money until my business was almost eight figures,

234
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: you know. And so yeah, because sometimes I've seen people

235
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: will complain about a coach, but that's just because they

236
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: weren't ready for the coaching just yet. They had not

237
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: done enough footwork to know the questions to ask and

238
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 1: what work to do.

239
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, one thousand percent. I mean even through creating bandy

240
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: money makers, like the ninety nine point nine percent of

241
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 2: the women who come through. And that's the reason I

242
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 2: like have an application phase, and I actually have one

243
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: on ones with women, a lot of women before they

244
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 2: officially enroll, because I don't want in My program's only

245
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 2: a few hundred bucks, that's where it starts at. And

246
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a lot of money. I'm not trying

247
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 2: to diminish that, but I don't want it doesn't make

248
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 2: me feel good to know that someone has come through

249
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: my community and not gotten, not understood my vision, not

250
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 2: gotten on board with I want women who are going

251
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 2: to be talking to each other. It's not meant to

252
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,840
Speaker 2: be an individual experience like an online course where you

253
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 2: just download it and do it on your own time.

254
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 2: It's meant to be you know, gauging with other women

255
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 2: and supporting other women. So like, I just want everyone

256
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 2: to understand that. But even so, you know, I welcome

257
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 2: the one time. In the past three cohorts and like

258
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 2: sixty women who've gone through my program, one woman was like, hey,

259
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 2: I've done a couple of classes. I just don't think

260
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 2: I'm ready for this at this point, and I'm going

261
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 2: to bow out. And I really I took that as

262
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: a I took that as a learning moment for me,

263
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 2: and I'm like, okay, is my messaging on par You know,

264
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 2: this happened to be a woman who I didn't do

265
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 2: a one on one before, and I'm like, Okay, I

266
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 2: need to make sure that I'm doing more one on ones.

267
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 2: It's not like those situations are never going to happen.

268
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 2: But again, I feel like as educators, it's like, so,

269
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: how are we making sure that our right customer, our

270
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 2: right client can find us? And if we're not for them,

271
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 2: they can find you know someone who is. And yeah,

272
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,960
Speaker 2: I feel a real deep sense of responsibility. Also, I

273
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: don't want to get back to Tiffany that I'm out

274
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 2: here in these streets like y'all are going to tell

275
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 2: on me.

276
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, you'd be surprised, like despite so,

277
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: like you know, I lost my Patreons for like the mentoring,

278
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: and I realized the mistake that I made was when

279
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 1: I first opened the doors. Although I said this is

280
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: for business, this is for business, everybody knows me as

281
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: a budgetesta personal finance, and so in the beginning, like

282
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: the first month or so, I.

283
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 3: Saw a ton of people leaving, and I'm like, what's

284
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 3: going on.

285
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: So thankfully with Patreon you can go on and you

286
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: could do like an exit survey. So sometimes I'll say, oh,

287
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 1: you're leaving why And I look and I would say

288
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: the vast majority was like I came for personal finance,

289
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: and I said, oh, okay, Tiffany, you're initial branding Budgetnista.

290
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: Of course, the average person coming here is going to

291
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: assume I'm going to get financial education here, even though

292
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: like when you sign up, I have this video where

293
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,959
Speaker 1: I'm like, we're not doing personal finance. There's some writing

294
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: it says's not personal finance. But girl, people are like BUDGETA,

295
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: I love your girl.

296
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 3: Click. They just sign up without looking.

297
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 1: So I made sure now that like I have like

298
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: a like when you go into my Patreon, like there's

299
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: a it said start here, and one of the first

300
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: things it says in all caps is you're not getting

301
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: personal financier.

302
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 3: This is if you need business coaching.

303
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: And then I made sure that whenever I mention you know,

304
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 1: like my Patreon, that I'm like to remember it's business

305
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: coaching that personal finance, because I'm wanting that when you

306
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: hear me, if you sign up, you know you come

307
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: for that reason.

308
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 3: But there's still people. Every once in a while, I.

309
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 1: Get a handful of people that when they leave, I

310
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 1: look and it's like I thought I was going to

311
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: get personal finance. But to your point, the onus is

312
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 1: also on the coach to make sure that you are

313
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 1: saying the things that are attracting people who are going

314
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: to be successful in your program, that they're getting what

315
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: they come for because I don't want, you know, for me,

316
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: it's ten bucks a month, so you know, people don't

317
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: leave like I hate Tiffany because they're.

318
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 3: Like, girl, just buy. You know.

319
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: It's but you know, like you know, I know, I

320
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 1: know I have friends who charge you know, ten twenty

321
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,480
Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars, not a month, but like for the year.

322
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: And you know, you have to be real careful that

323
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: you're not getting like people off the street that don't

324
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: understand what they're getting. And certainly you don't have to

325
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: be careful if you don't want to, but you know,

326
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: you then word gets out real quickly when someone loses

327
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars, it's devastating for most people. Like people

328
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: don't don't have that, And it like to like I said,

329
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: is it like Manny And I joke before and I said,

330
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, but I think I'm gonna say it.

331
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: It's like, is it a scam? You might not be

332
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: going to jail, but you're not going to heap it,

333
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 1: you know, So it's like, is it morally okay?

334
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 3: Now? Is it a scam?

335
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: Meaning like are you gonna you know, like, is there

336
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: like some sort of legal ramification? Maybe not, but that

337
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: doesn't make it right. And so you the onus on

338
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: y'all who are looking is to vet you know, what

339
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 1: is it that I'm needing? Am I going to get this?

340
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: Can I ask questions?

341
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 3: What is it?

342
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: What was this person doing before? Have other people gone

343
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: through this? Like my business coach Zion. He was so expensive.

344
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: It was thirty five thousand a month. Let's do the

345
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: math on that. So but when I tell you I

346
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 1: was this close to shutting down my business, I had

347
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,440
Speaker 1: reached even though we were our most successful at that

348
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: time were just like literally just under ten million. I

349
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: was like nine point nine eighty eight something something crazy, right,

350
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: But I was so overwhelmed. So that's four hundred and

351
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 1: twenty thousand dollars a year. But like I said, by

352
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: then my business was just about ten million dollars a year.

353
00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: But I was so overwhelmed despite it being successful, I

354
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: was going to shut it down because it was I

355
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: didn't know how like I had we had clawed our

356
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: way to that ten million in a way that I

357
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: knew was not sustainable emotionally mentally it was I was

358
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: drowning in the work and it was reflective in my body.

359
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: My my, my blood pressure was astronomical, Like I went

360
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: to the doctor, like I just want a regular check up.

361
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: She said, this is the second time your blood presure

362
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 1: has been elevated. I want you to get a blood

363
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: pressure blood plusure, blood plusure ma sheet and then every

364
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 1: day text me like be like our app like you

365
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: know what it is. So I started to take it

366
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 1: and I stopped. I stopped taking the numbers because they

367
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: were scary, like I think, like it's like one twenty

368
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: over seventy. It's like consider baseline, you know, a little

369
00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: elevated might be one thirty over eight. You know, like

370
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: that that's in within range. But no, I was clocking

371
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 1: in like one sixty over forty, like dangerous for I mean,

372
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 1: I'm not some old lady.

373
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 3: And I stopped. At first, I thought maybe it's just

374
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 3: the machine.

375
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: It's broken. I had my sister do it one twenty

376
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: over seventy. I had a listen do it. When twenty

377
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 1: I had Jerelle at the time to do it, and

378
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,919
Speaker 1: I was just like, what is going on? What is

379
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: going on? And so I realized that you're gonna have

380
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: a heart attack or whatever is at a stroke. I'm

381
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: not sure what you get from high blood pressure. If

382
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 1: this continues, If it means shutting down the business to

383
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: save yourself, so be it, you know, because I didn't

384
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 1: hate it. I just didn't know how to manage. And

385
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,920
Speaker 1: it was because I brought on Zion and he kind

386
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 1: of was like, here's all the things you're doing that

387
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: you ought not to be doing, how to delegate, here's

388
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 1: how to shut down, here's how to create space.

389
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 3: And so it was worth that money.

390
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: So I don't want you to think I'm hating on, like, oh,

391
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,160
Speaker 1: I charged a whole lot for coaching. That that means

392
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 1: some of that person is a scam. Now, you know,

393
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 1: sometimes it does cost a whole lot. But to me,

394
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,520
Speaker 1: I'm it's really more so that, like is there proof

395
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 1: in the pudding? Who have they worked with before he

396
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: was He was recommended to me by a very like

397
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: somebody who I know in business that also does eight

398
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: figures and was like having a hard time and and

399
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: he totally transformed her. And she told me I had

400
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: to time. You know, he ain't cheap, and I was like,

401
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:35,720
Speaker 1: you's the key.

402
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 2: Yes, a personal referral from someone you trust. Amen, Like,

403
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 2: if you don't have that, I don't know how anyone

404
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 2: makes purchases of like that magnitude. Yeah, I cut a

405
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 2: referral or a human tell me I went through this

406
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 2: and you know, And this is also the reason why

407
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 2: I think it's really important for educators give away your

408
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: stuff for free for a little bit, like build those

409
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 2: testimonials so that people can experience what whatver it is

410
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 2: that you're doing. The smartest thing I did, and I

411
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:03,919
Speaker 2: wish I could say I was like some sort of

412
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 2: mastermind genius was due.

413
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 3: Two hundred free career coaching. Yeah, but that was demious

414
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,200
Speaker 3: though it was genius.

415
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 2: But and I think without those testimonials, you know, how

416
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 2: are you supposed to convince anyone to trust you, and

417
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 2: not just testimonials that you read online, but like to

418
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 2: know that someone like I'm thinking, I've invested in three

419
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 2: coaches in the past, very different book proposal coach, business coach,

420
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 2: and another like short term sort of coach for around sales.

421
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 3: And as someone.

422
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 2: Who's purchased, like Tiffany you're talking about purchasing coaching services,

423
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 2: I've purchased coaching services as well. The key denominator. Common

424
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 2: denominator is that I had a trusted peer, someone similar

425
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 2: to me, like you mentioned in that case, someone who

426
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: also had an eight figure business struggling, you know, someone

427
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 2: who had similar issues to me. And that's important that

428
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 2: they found it really really helpful and found the investment

429
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 2: worth And I have turned down other programs from people

430
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,439
Speaker 2: who said, yes, I spent the money, would I do

431
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 2: it again?

432
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:05,000
Speaker 1: No?

433
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 2: And it it takes time to get those kinds of

434
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 2: like referrals, but it's so crucial.

435
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 1: So crucial, whether you're spending two hundred dollars two thousand

436
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: or two hundred thousand, like the due diligence ultimately falls

437
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: on you. And know, I think to me a critical

438
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: component is have you even started the work. Some people

439
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: want to coach day wanted their business. I'm like, sis, yeah,

440
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: open up the laptop and just get to click in

441
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: first before you because you don't even know what you need.

442
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 1: You know, like have you gotten It's okay to get

443
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: advice and things like that, but like to pay for coaching.

444
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,479
Speaker 1: Let me get into some sort of groove so I

445
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: even know, like, oh, okay, this is what I'm this

446
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 1: is what I'm in need for so I think I

447
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,679
Speaker 1: feel like people either get coaching too soon or they

448
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: get it too late. Like I waited until I was

449
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 1: on my last leg and limp and along.

450
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,240
Speaker 3: I was like, good j please, you know that I

451
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 3: want to give desperate you know.

452
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: But you also don't want to do coaching so soon

453
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: in your baby business because you might be like, oh,

454
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: I don't even want to do that anymore. Like I

455
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: said not to say you shouldn't get advice and you

456
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: shouldn't take free classes and things like that, but you

457
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: just want to be mindful of that. So I hope,

458
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: you know, I'm hoping that viral clip. You know, no

459
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: one has reached out to me to be mad, but

460
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: I'm sure there are people who are like this.

461
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 3: Damn Tiffany, you know, she what do the people say?

462
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 1: Like back in the day when I was in college,

463
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,360
Speaker 1: guys used to say I was a cock blocker because

477
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 2: Any professional who can't engage in like an intelligent debate

478
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 2: or converse station discourse about your profession and how to

479
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,479
Speaker 2: like improve it and how bad actors you know, how

480
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,879
Speaker 2: to tele apart bad actors and like that's not that

481
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 2: to me is a red flag. Yeah, you know, it shouldn't.

482
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 2: It shouldn't. Like for me as a coach, it doesn't.

483
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 2: It doesn't, you know, make me feel any kind of

484
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 2: way that we're being critical of other coaches and people

485
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,199
Speaker 2: who sell services. I think it makes us better, you know,

486
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 2: and it helps build trust with our communities, which is

487
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,439
Speaker 2: what everyone should be out there doing, building that trust

488
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 2: and doing the damn work so that you deserve that

489
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 2: trust at the end of the day.

549
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,119

551
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 2: Ah, I know there's a heartbreaking video of these little girls,

553
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 2: who is a Latin American character on Sesame Street, just

554
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 2: completely ignoring them and like giving them like a nah no,

555
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 2: like hand in the face as as as she goes by,

556
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 2: and then she's like saying hi to kids who are white.

557
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 2: And that would have been enough. But then I got

558
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 2: on Twitter and there were other videos yeah that were

559
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 2: surfacing of like similar craziness and sesame Place put out

560
00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 2: a statement, but it's it's so sad, like you would

561
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 2: think all everything that says to me, you know, street

562
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 2: stands for like they just need to crack.

563
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 3: They need to do way, way, way, way.

564
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 2: More than put out a statement. They need to figure

565
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 2: out who's in those suits. Is this a pervasive problem?

566
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 2: You know we are these are little babies, Yeah, and

567
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 2: kids feel that when you see those little girls' faces,

Speaker 2: get their shit together and fix these issues and huge.

571
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 2: You know, that's a situation where I feel like those

572
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 2: parents could have felt like it's just us. Are we

573
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 2: imagining this like those instances of racism that aren't you know,

574
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 2: smacking you over the head. But the fact that they

575
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 2: told their story and then you see more stories coming

576
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,439
Speaker 2: out like thank you for actually sharing that story, posting

577
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 2: that video being brave enough to endure, which I'm sure

578
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 2: is like a ton of bs hate and vitriol, but

579
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 2: it's important. So I'm breaking sas Me Place, and I'm

580
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 2: going to boost that family for being brave enough to

581
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 2: speak out about it.

582
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 3: And you know, so crazy I was. I was doing

583
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 3: some digging.

584
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: Do you know the origins of Sesame Street, which is

585
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 1: so anti racist that it was a psychologist that noticed

586
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 1: that black and brown children, in particular, especially in urban neighborhoods,

587
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: were behind on reading, and so he said, if I

588
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 1: can create a show that is similar to that environment.

589
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: So if you notice literally it's called Sesame Street because

590
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 1: you know, it's supposed to be like New York, they

591
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 1: had all these black and brown like and remember it

592
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 1: was like all of the humans that lived there mostly

593
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 1: were black and brown. And honestly, the South didn't want it,

594
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: and people were angry at this representation in child's children's programming.

595
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: But it was created specifically for the very kids that

596
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: are being ignored at Sesame Place, which is so crazy,

597
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 1: like to know that that's not the foundation that this

598
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 1: was actually built on.

599
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 3: It was actually built.

600
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 1: Specifically for these children to feel included and welcomed and

601
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: educated so Zilbet because honestly, I was going to take

602
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 1: the kids. I was just talking to my sister Carol'm like,

603
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 1: can we take a Roman and a Milia to test

604
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: me place?

605
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:04,920
Speaker 3: She's like, by weed, do you mean you?

606
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 2: I'm like, girl, whatever, but yes to digger Land. Construction

607
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 2: trucks are the new Testame street. I don't remember construction

608
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:15,120
Speaker 2: trucks being such a big deal when I was a kid.

609
00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 3: But let me tell you about a kids deer. Okay,

610
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 3: I don't know why kids.

611
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,679
Speaker 1: I feel like there's a few I don't know if

612
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,200
Speaker 1: has gone through all these iterations, yet there's a few

613
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: things that kids go through that they become expert level

614
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: experts in planets, dinosaurs, like construction trucks and vehicles and things.

615
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 3: And it's just such the oddest thing.

616
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: And I'm just like literally, there'll be a moment where like,

617
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: you know, like the babysit this five year.

618
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 3: Old kid and he was like, do you know that

619
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 3: Pluto was the problem?

620
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 2: Like how.

621
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:48,280
Speaker 3: Why I was that kid? Then you get grown, you

622
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 3: don't know nothing.

623
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: You're like nettun like the town in South Jersey, Like

624
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,479
Speaker 1: you don't even remember those things. But it's just so

625
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 1: odd to me that like, yeah, kids will go like

626
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: through those spaces. Well, I'm actually going to boosty boost.

627
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 1: I am currently reading. If you were watching on our YouTube,

628
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: you would see it. So this book, it's called The

629
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: Twelve Week Year, This is actually just a work for

630
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:10,560
Speaker 1: person that I don't know. These people they know, ain

631
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: no money involved for me. But I started reading it

632
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 1: because I'm not gonna lie manny, I'm not a really

633
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: great consistent executor. And I know people think I'm a

634
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: good executor. No, I struggle a lot and that consistent yes,

635
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: And so I can execute when under duress, meaning like okay,

636
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: or something's really big, Like when my book came out,

637
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,640
Speaker 1: Get Your of Money, I was like, okay, it was

638
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: so important to me that I fumbled my way through execution.

639
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I was like, we got

640
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 1: to get this done. We have to meet weekly. I

641
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 1: just kind of made it up as I went along.

642
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: Same thing with like when I launched a kickstarter for

643
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: Molly Moore, same thing when I launch a literature academy.

644
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 1: So when it comes to these big old things that

645
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 1: it has, it's so important to me, I will execute,

646
00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: but really in a sloppy way.

647
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 3: So yes.

648
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: On the outside, it's like ooh, ooh, you guys did it.

649
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: It's like, girl, do you know how many like of

650
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: the ten things we did, really only three of them.

651
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 3: Were the things that like move things forward.

652
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: And I was just I'm exhausted by it and so

653
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: and I think actually Zion had recommended this to me before,

654
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: but I was ready for it.

655
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 3: And then it came up again. I was like, all right,

656
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 3: I think I'm ready.

657
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 1: So I got the ebook another e book, the audio version,

658
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: because that's my jam now, and so I started listening.

659
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my gosh, yes, and then I

660
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: was like, but it's the kind of book you really

661
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: need to kind of take notes, you know. So I

662
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I don't want the book book.

663
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 1: Let me get They had the workbook. So I ordered

664
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: the workbook version. And I'm gonna be working with Tamra My,

665
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: my CEO of the Literature Academy on like reconstructing like

666
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: kind of our organizational structure to more similarly align with

667
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: a twelve week year, but also even on the budget

668
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 1: east to team with Logan and my team and being like, okay,

669
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 1: because I want to practice being a consistent executor.

670
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:50,800
Speaker 3: Because it won't just help in business.

671
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: But in life, you know what I mean, like how

672
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: do you get things done? And why you know? And

673
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: like how do I make that you know, something that

674
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 1: is a habit versus like this herculean effort. And so

675
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: the purpose, like the here's what the twelve week year

676
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 1: really like in a nutshell is.

677
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 3: It's like these Brian P.

678
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: Morin and Michael Lennington, these their researchers, and they were

679
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 1: trying to figure out what made what made.

680
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 3: People successful truly truly? Was it? Knowledge? Was it?

681
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: Connections was it? And they found that there was this

682
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: underlying attribute that they found and it was like the

683
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: people who were consistently successful, they were really good at

684
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: executing above all else. And they were like, well, what

685
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: does that kind of look like like these executors And

686
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: they started to study all these different companies and they

687
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: found that companies typically were their most executed at the

688
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: highest level, usually at the end of the year, when

689
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: it was like, oh my gosh, the year's wrapping up.

690
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: Let's not waste time on these meetings that don't mean anything.

691
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: Let's not waste time on we got to meet our quota.

692
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,719
Speaker 1: And they were like, well, how can we recreate that

693
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: same feeling of get things done, get rid of the

694
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: things that don't matter, but not have to wait till

695
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 1: the end of the year. They said, well, what if

696
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: we can create like a year, but within these twelve weeks.

697
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: So the purpose of twelve week year, Mandy is not

698
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: to get a year's worth of work done in twelve weeks,

699
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 1: which is that's what I thought. I was like, that

700
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: sounds a lot, but it's to really organize and say,

701
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: my overall vision, let's just pretend it's the book Get

702
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: It with Money. My overall vision is for Get It

703
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: with Money to sell one hundred thousand copies year one

704
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: New York Times Bestsellers list.

705
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 3: That's the overall vision. And then break that down to goals.

706
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: So goal number one write the book or like to

707
00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 1: get you know, to get an agent, or to get

708
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: a proposal done, whatever that is. And so those goals

709
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 1: make up that's the twelve week year. So if goal

710
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 1: number one was to get a proposal done, you know,

711
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 1: and to find an agent, then that's what I would

712
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: work on those twelve weeks. It's like, and then you

713
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: break down these week by creating a plan for each

714
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: week and then task for each day, and then by

715
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: the end of that twelve week year, you're like, I

716
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 1: have my proposal and I found the agent next to

717
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 1: write the book.

718
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 3: And then that's what happens within that twelve weeks. And

719
00:32:58,240 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 3: so when by the time.

720
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: You're done accumulated all of these major goals that lead

721
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,479
Speaker 1: to the overall vision, which is a successful book that

722
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: is a New York Times bestseller.

723
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 3: So honestly, I'm like, okay, and.

724
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: I see that I was kind of doing some of

725
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 1: those things already when I was successful in executing, but

726
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: not in a strategic way accidentally, And so honestly, I'm

727
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: really excited about it. And I'm actually gonna share it

728
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 1: with my my my mentortipany dot com members, and I

729
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: think we're gonna like we're gonna work through the book

730
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,800
Speaker 1: collectively together because when I teach, I learned twice and

731
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,960
Speaker 1: so I'm excited about that, Like, okay, because execution, for

732
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: most small business and new business owners, that's something that

733
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: people struggle with. So that's my boost. Honestly, I'm excited.

734
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: If you've read it, let me know what you think

735
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 1: I happen to. I'm really like enjoying it, and I'm

736
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: just like, oh, okay, if I can master this part

737
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: of myself, it's just I feel like it can. It

738
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 1: can alleviate additional stress and not have me wonder will

739
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:56,479
Speaker 1: this will?

740
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:57,480
Speaker 3: Will this not work?

741
00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 1: Because you won't have to wonder when you have a

742
00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 1: very clear plan. You know that if you're working the plan,

743
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,680
Speaker 1: the plan will work, you know. So that's my boosty

744
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: even though they're not brown, that's okay.

745
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 2: I'm a huge fan of baby steps. I feel like

746
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 2: so often it's like deer in headlights. I want to

747
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 2: get here, I want to get to the end, and

748
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, but that's not the problem today. The

749
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 2: problem is that you don't have something you need today

750
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,280
Speaker 2: to do a tiny bit, like do a tiny step

751
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,720
Speaker 2: to get there. Well, that book helped me, like finally

752
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 2: put away the laundry that I folded on it.

753
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 3: Could you never know?

754
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 1: Honestly, when I look at it, I'm thinking about, like

755
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: I'm down. I know you can't really tell because black

756
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 1: girls kind of well, I'm down like twenty five pounds,

757
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: like at my peak, you know, like I was just

758
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 1: like I mean, I'm always transparent, like I like my

759
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: at my peak. I want to say last year, maybe

760
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 1: mid last year, I was like two hundred pounds and

761
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 1: I was like, Tiffany, like, this is the largest you've been,

762
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: which normally it's like whatever, girl, you think it's cute,

763
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,359
Speaker 1: but when the blood pressure was raising and everything else

764
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 1: else said not to, like it's affecting your health, and

765
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 1: so I was like, but I had yo yo, like oh,

766
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: I was vegan. Remember I was vegan for that spell.

767
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,839
Speaker 1: Then I dropped and then it was too much. I

768
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,959
Speaker 1: was not able to consistently keep myself where I wanted

769
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: to be before. And then I started to do where

770
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: I recognizing some of the things I was doing, I'm like, oh,

771
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 1: that's why what's working is working now Because one, like

772
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 1: I won, I found like like a something that I

773
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 1: like to actually do, Like I actually like jumping rope

774
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:25,080
Speaker 1: and I'm still jumping rope.

775
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 3: And we talked about that before.

776
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: And two I finally realized that like, I don't do

777
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 1: well with deprivation. Instead, I had to find foods that

778
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: were good for me that I actually liked. And so

779
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I'm like okay, so like

780
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 1: now I've flooded like my pantry, my refrigerator with food

781
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,560
Speaker 1: that I liked. So I was kind of doing this

782
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 1: like systematic program for myself because I had to create

783
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: a lifestyle like I had therapy right before this, and

784
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,799
Speaker 1: doctor Green said, it's the difference between picking up a

785
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 1: skill set and technique, which is great to start, but

786
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: until it becomes an embodiment, you will go back to

787
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: where you were before, literally shifting who you are internally.

788
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: And she was saying, that's why I'm really proud of you, Tiffany.

789
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: She's like, you're doing an amazing job because you are

790
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: shifting who you are internally and as a result, you're

791
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: making decisions that are that are in your best interest.

792
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: And that's the last thing changed. So I'm finally getting

793
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 1: to that place with when it comes. I'm like down

794
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: to like one seventy five, I just said, I don't

795
00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: only have like I mean now I feel like my

796
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: size is fine, I guess. I mean, you know, I'm

797
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,359
Speaker 1: like I fit my old genes and I'm like, that's fine,

798
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,800
Speaker 1: But I still just want to continue with like working

799
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: out and in the way that I like, which is

800
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,760
Speaker 1: walking and jumping rope and doing some lunches and squats

801
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: when I brush my teeth. But yes, that's one of

802
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,479
Speaker 1: the things I do too. It's they call it habit

803
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 1: stacking and atomic habits. But I've been doing that for

804
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 1: like years. I used to do that when I was like, Okay,

805
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:51,240
Speaker 1: you have a habit you're already doing, and tack something

806
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: to it that you want to make a habit. And

807
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 1: so when I brush my teeth, which is usually at

808
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:57,840
Speaker 1: least twice a day, sometimes three times a day, I

809
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: do lunches and squats, and so I'm like, okay, and

810
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 1: you know, and I'm like and so sometimes I'll like

811
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,399
Speaker 1: even lean against the sink and like do like push

812
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:07,640
Speaker 1: ups against the sink, you know, because I don't really

813
00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: like working out, but I like jumping rope and I

814
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 1: like walking. But that gets me to get like some

815
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 1: lunches and squats and something. You're gonna brush your teeth

816
