So I had them done now, thanks girl. 97 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: So community in all areas of your life is important. 98 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: So all I've been really good for the last few 99 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: years of the community of my sisters and staying connected there. 100 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: You know, I have four sisters, my parents who are 101 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: called regularly my neighbors, Like this morning before I went 102 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,919 Speaker 1: for my walk, like sometimes after trash day. You know 103 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: how like sometimes there's just garbage on the street because 104 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: your garbage can is knocked over, and just like I 105 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: hate that look. I don't want to come home and 106 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: see not a piece of straw on the ground. So 107 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 1: I woke up this morning and I cleaned the front 108 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: of my house, my neighbor's house and house across the 109 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: street and put some gloves on because that's part of community. 110 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 1: And it is not possible, especially in this day and age, 111 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: to navigate without community. And so that's what brought me 112 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 1: to do by because I said, I prayed that I 113 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: want professional community because I've got my beauty community, I've 114 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: got my personal community, my family community, but I didn't 115 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: really have people in the professional space that I could 116 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: really go to like I used to. I mean, I 117 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: certainly have some mentors, but community community. And I had 118 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: my first Mastermind session at my friend's house in Dallas. 119 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 1: She's been very successful in business, and it was like 120 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: a black girl business session.

It was just amazing. I did that in 134 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: Dallas in January December, and it totally changed the trajectory 135 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: of how I look at my business and even myself. 136 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: Some of the advice they gave me has just shifted 137 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: me and my business dramatically in a way that's so 138 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: positive and upflifting.

I think the Bad Bitch collected something like that, 148 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: and so we have like a text group and everything, 149 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: and so some of us came down to support her 150 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: her conference.

Another person he's I think 167 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: Carlos is Latina. So it was an amazing group, a 168 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: mixed like group of very successful entrepreneurs and to be 169 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 1: able to kind of learn from them. So I learned 170 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: a lot about some things that I could be doing better. 171 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: But also it was a great highlight to see how 172 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: well I was doing, because sometimes you don't know, and 173 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: just to hear how they were blown away by some 174 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: of the things I'd accomplished. Because there's some of the 175 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: biggest in their space. You know, if I said their name, 176 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: you'd be like, what you know? And so to hear 177 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: that they were like, wait whatan that's incredible. I'm like, okay, 178 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: my numbers are incredible, but your numbers are incredible too. 179 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 1: So it was just really amazing to each of these masterminds. 180 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: It was two ways. One, I love the fact that 181 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: they were free. I had never paid for a mastermind. 182 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: I'm not opposed to it, but a lot of folks 183 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: there had paid for masterminds up to sixty thousand dollars, 184 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: and they said like this is way better, you know 185 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: than the paid masterminds that they've been a part of. 186 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: And so what I loved about these masterminds is usually 187 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: for both of them, day one, it's the day that 188 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: you give here is what I know, This is what 189 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: I can teach you. And so I taught how to 190 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: build community, you know, because you know I have my 191 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: dream catchers, and how to build and monetize your community 192 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: ethically and with integrity. So that's what I taught. And 193 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: then on the second day, you got to say, here's 194 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: where I'm struggling, and they got to pour into you 195 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: to give you their tools, tips and resources about what 196 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: you can do to make things better, I mean, And 197 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: some of the feedback I got was just so incredible. 198 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: I was literally talking to my team today excitedly, like, Yo, 199 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: we're switching up all these things and to take our 200 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: business to the next level. And so I just share 201 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: all that to say that you only can know and 202 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:44,199 Speaker 1: do what you know how to know and do, and 203 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: sometimes what you've been really good at is no longer 204 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: good to the world, meaning like you might do business, 205 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 1: or you might in your job, or even skincare or 206 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: health care, whatever it is that it worked once upon 207 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: a time, but you got stuck there, and I know 208 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: I have and so many of us have. And you 209 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: become good at a bad thing? Did you do what 210 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 1: I said? You become good at a bad thing? And 211 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: I was getting really good because I work hard at 212 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: bad things and bad not as in judgment bad, but 213 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: as in not effective. You know, Like when I was 214 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: in high school, I used to use Apricot scrub for 215 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: my skin. Remember that Apricot scrub, child, That stuff used 216 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: to turn your skin up. But at the time I 217 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,719 Speaker 1: thought I was doing like such a good job and 218 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 1: my skin was glowing or whatever. That stuff was terrible 219 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: for you. But as I grew and learned, I realized, 220 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: especially as you get older, you really don't want to 221 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: be harsh to your skin. And so the only way 222 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: for me to learn that is I had to introduce 223 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: a dermatologist to my team. I had to ask other 224 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: people who had great skin to my team. I followed 225 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: skin influencers on social media, and so I started to 226 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: build my community so I can learn something new, so 227 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: I can do something new. So many of us are 228 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: not getting the success, whether it's the way you look, 229 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: whether it's your business where you work. So many of 230 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 1: you are stuck not because you're not hard workers. It's 231 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 1: because you don't have any new information. You are good 232 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: at the bad things, things that maybe used to be good, 233 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: no longer work, no longer viable, no longer helpful. And 234 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: it's not because you do anything wrong. The world evolves 235 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: and changes and you need to as well. And before 236 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: my husband passed away, I was really good at pre 237 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: pivoting seeing like this, I'm working no more, or this 238 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 1: is not going to work in two years, let's put 239 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: in work now. But after he passed away, I'm being honest, 240 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 1: I just was not. I just was not present in 241 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: the business rightfully. So you know, I'm just kind of 242 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: coming back to a place where I'm like in the 243 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: business now. And so normally it wouldn't have gone this far, 244 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: like as far as like my business being really good 245 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: at bad things, because I would have picked up on 246 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: it sooner and pivoted. But I did it. But so 247 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: here we are. And but as a result, I have 248 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: done as much as I know how to do, and 249 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: so I realized it is beyond what I know to do. 250 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: It is let me ask for advice from people who 251 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 1: are doing, you know, and inject new ideas, new thoughts, 252 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: new ways, so I could become good at good things. Again, 253 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 1: does that make sense? I just think about that, like 254 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: in all areas, like the way I used to do 255 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: my brows before. I remember, like I used to be 256 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: really passive in so many areas of my life, certainly 257 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: not in business. But I'll give you like a beauty example, right, 258 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,719 Speaker 1: So I was like passive in like my brows. I 259 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: would get them done. They would look cute for a 260 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: week and then start to look raggedy, and then after 261 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: two weeks you get them done. Then one day I said, Tiffany, 262 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: why don't you ask Pharah what is it that thing 263 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 1: that you use in my brows? And She's like, oh, 264 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: this is a penzil, this is the gel, this is 265 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: the So all of a sudden, no, I'm not doing 266 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: my own brows, but I would able to maintain and 267 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: upkeep them longer so they look like how Farah had 268 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: done them longer, just by asking what are you doing? Sis? 269 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: Who are you using? Okay, I just I mean in 270 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: all areas, you know, so many times we don't ask 271 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: those questions, how did you do that? What are you doing? 272 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: You know? You know, what should I be doing? What 273 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: are your thoughts. You know, what are you reading, what 274 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 1: podcasts are you listening to? How are you bringing in 275 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: new thoughts or ideas into your life? You know, everything 276 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: from lashes right, Like I was going to this last 277 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: that I really love it. I asked Leela who does 278 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: my face? And she said, you know whose lashes are 279 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: actually really nice? I said who? She said, Alissa. Now 280 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: if y'all know all listen, is my seventeen year old 281 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: sassy pants stepdaughter. And I was like really last, She's like, yeah, 282 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: I did, because Alyssa had asked me. She said, Tippy, 283 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: I want to. She wanted to do her senior pictures 284 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 1: and she wanted to get her makeup done and I 285 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: said okay, and she asked Leela could do it? Aka, 286 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: Can I pay for it? And I said, of course. 287 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: Plus I knew Leela is. She knew I'd rather Leila 288 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: do Alyssa's makeup because she knows that have her look 289 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: like the seventeen year old beautiful girl. She is not 290 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: like some grown woman so light because Alyssa's beautiful anyway, right, 291 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: she don't need all that? But I said sure. So 292 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: she came to the house. Lida had done her makeup. 293 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: I guess Leila had seen how like Alyssa gets lashes 294 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: because you know, she's seventeen going on forty five, but 295 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: they're natural looking. And I didn't even know she was 296 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: getting lashes uptown natural And Leila said, you know, Alisa 297 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: gets lashes and I can tell by who's doing them 298 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: that they know what they're doing. And I was like, really, 299 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: but I could not have known that because when I 300 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: didn't know and Listen was doing last, had I not 301 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: asked Leela, Hey, I'm struggling with getting the right natural 302 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: looking lash. Any suggestions, she said, Ask Alissa, I asked 303 00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: a list. Of course Alyiza knows, she said, ask my mama. 304 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: So I hit up Sean Tables, Like, girl, where did 305 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: you take a listen to get her lashes?

I went to this mastermind. It 327 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: was only like two or three days. And I said, 328 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: I'm not flying all the way to Dubai for two 329 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 1: or three days, you thought.

So we went back and forth, 334 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: maybe Singapore, maybe Rwanda, and we decided on Zanzibar, which 335 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,479 Speaker 1: is an island right outside of Tanzania. So Zanza Bar 336 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: is part of Tanzania, but it used to be two separate. 337 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: It used to be Tanka, Nika and Zanza Bar. And 338 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: then they, the presidents of those two countries, sat down 339 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 1: and said let's be one. And so anyway, Zanzibar is 340 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: an island right outside of mainland Tanzania and a friend 341 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: of mine. Again I reached out to my community. I said, hey, Avida, 342 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: she owns a company called No Madness, which is a 343 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: She is the grandmother of black travel and so No 344 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: Madness not just black people weren't traveling before, but she 345 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: started No Madness right when social media was becoming a 346 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: thing and really helped to elevate and expose black travel 347 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: for the amazing opportunity that it was. So anyway, I 348 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: called a vita because community, I said, why should I 349 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: figure this out myself? Girl Avida literally does this for 350 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: a living. And I said where should I go? She 351 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: said maybe Thailand Rwanda than Zanza Bar. And she gave 352 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: me like these voice notes explaining each place and what 353 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: I can expect. I was like, this is great. So 354 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: I hit up my friend who I was traveling with. 355 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: I said, here are the three places that my friend 356 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: A Vita suggested, and she said, let's do Zanzabar because 357 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 1: it's very beachy. And I said, okay, let's do that, 358 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: and we went to Zanzabar again. The beautiful thing about 359 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: community is not just the knowledge, but the connection. Avida said, 360 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: let me connect you to my girl homegirl that lives 361 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: in Zanzibar. I said, okay, Avida, send the WhatsApp message 362 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: between me and this girl named Justa, another sister, and 363 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 1: she said, this is Justa's website curious on Tanzania. And 364 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 1: I said, wait a minute, that looks familiar. I went 365 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: to the website. I said, I remember this lady I 366 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: met Justa some years ago. She had to pop up 367 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 1: shop in Brooklyn and I bought some African print clothing 368 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: and if I remember, we took a picture Chaw. I 369 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: ran to the Googles, my Google Photos typed in African 370 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 1: print clothing two thousand and thirteen. I have a picture 371 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,479 Speaker 1: of me Justa and I don't know her niece or nephew, 372 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: and like taking a picture inside her apartment. I posted 373 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: in the WhatsApp group. I said, oh my gosh, justa 374 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember me, but I came 375 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: to your house ten years ago, over ten years ago, 376 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,919 Speaker 1: and I told you I remember now. I told you 377 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: I was going to come to Tanzania. She said, you 378 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: know what she said, She said, Tiffany. I was just 379 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 1: typing this to a Vida separately outside of this group chat. 380 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: She said, Avida, I love Tiffany. She won't remember me, 381 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: but years some years ago she came to my apartment 382 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: for a pop up and she told me. She was 383 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 1: wearing her green bracelets and told me that one day 384 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: she was going to be big and certain personal finance. 385 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: And you look at she's done it. And she said, 386 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: and here you are. Not only do you remember me, 387 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: but you came with receipts with this picture. So it 388 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: was so wonderful. Just within a couple of days, planned 389 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: a whole Zanza bar itinerary for myself and my friend. 390 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: We stayed in Stonetown at the Park Hyatt, which is 391 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: this luxurious hotel in the middle of town by all 392 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: the markets and food and whatever, and then we drove 393 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 1: to I don't even know, like what that part of 394 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: Zanzibar's carter, but Stonetown is like in a town, the city, 395 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: if you will. And then we stayed there one night 396 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: and then two nights, and the most luxurious it's called 397 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: the Zawabi I think it was called hotel. There's only 398 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: twelve bungalows and so my friend had one, I had one, 399 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: and then you know, the ten other ones were rented out, 400 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 1: I guess. So the serve impeccable, every server near your name, 401 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: everything was included. It was right on my bungalow was 402 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: on this cliff, and you could see the beach below 403 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 1: sunset and sunrise was oh, just amazing. And then you 404 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: could walk down to the beach, which I did. If 405 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: you saw any of my stories, I mean, you largely 406 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: had this private beach almost always to yourself because only 407 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: twelve people child. It was visually beautiful and stunning, and 408 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: they painted everything these muted colors, so it was just 409 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: so calming and it was just incredible. And we spent 410 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: three days there, two nights there, and then the next 411 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 1: day we went to go visit the Massai, which is 412 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 1: this amazing African tribe and got to learn about their 413 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: tribe and their culture and did a spice tour, and 414 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what I thought the spice tore was 415 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: going to be. Like they walked us through the woods. 416 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 1: It was like, smell us leaf.

She's on ig as well. 427 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: But also I think that's her website shout out to 428 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:37,000 Speaker 1: justa another sister. Amazing. I just want us to understand that, 429 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:42,959 Speaker 1: like it is not possible to navigate this world successfully alone. 430 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: I had this aha moment when I realized is that 431 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: there are people who live in the studio apartment of 432 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: their life in their head, you know, what I mean, 433 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: meaning that like this limiting belief is like not me 434 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: my skin, this is just how my skin is.

You know I've been tried 437 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 1: to lose weight, or like, oh my hair just doesn't grow, 438 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: you know, like I have four seeds, so my hair 439 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: grows out. It'd be very easy for me must say, 440 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: oh my haircrone, grow long. Meanwhile, my hair is the 441 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: middle of my back. Now, you know, like we live 442 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 1: in this studio like apartment version of our life of limitations, 443 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: and you are arguing for your own limitations and winning 444 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: because you always gonna win the argument when you argue 445 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 1: for your own limitations. And then there are some people who, 446 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: by luck or advocacy for themselves say maybe there is more, 447 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: Maybe there is a one bedroom of life I can 448 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: live in.

She said, so many of us 458 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: are so stuck on Piggie, thinking that we have to 459 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: do the how all alone. And she said, it's not 460 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: so much that how, it's the who can connect us. 461 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: A Vida connected me to justa like Leela connect told 462 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 1: me about Alyssa's last lady.

And I just love that that like 474 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: community equals connection. When I first got on TV for 475 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 1: the first time. You know, I had never I didn't 476 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: know how to get on TV. Literally, Lynette was like 477 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 1: my mentor. She was giving me a ride home from 478 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: this event. She said, have you ever been on TV? 479 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: I said no. She made a phone call to a 480 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: producer at Picks eleven and said, hey, I know. I 481 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 1: said I was going to come on next week, but 482 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: I have somebody who should come on instead. Her name 483 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: is Tiffany, the producer because it was her and Lynette 484 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: had been doing TV for many, many years, said okay, 485 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: and then she coached me that is a who, not 486 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: a how. And so we are not meant to navigate 487 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 1: the challenges by ourselves, not financially, not personally, not anything. 488 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: We are meant to live in a collective. And if 489 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,959 Speaker 1: you can't lean on your family, you could create your 490 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: own collective. Do you speak to your neighbors? Do you 491 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: join groups like there's a great group called Girl Trek 492 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: where women, especially black women walk every week.

You know, I have a what is it 554 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: called not clear but a global entry.

I mean it was a brother, 559 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,959 Speaker 1: he was nice, but they went through not I mean 560 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: every bag, every piece of lotion, open up lipstick opened up. 561 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: I was like, what are you looking for? The muffin? Man? 562 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: It was crazy. I was like, I've never been. I mean, 563 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: it got down to, like, you know, on vacation, I 564 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: don't do laundry. I just bring if it's ten days, 565 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: I'm bringing twenty days worth of underweary. So you know, 566 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: there was one of that he was opened. I said, 567 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 1: before you opened it, I'm just letting you know those 568 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: that's my underwear, do with that with the information, and 569 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 1: I ain't do no laundry, Like how you want? That 570 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: was the one bag. He was like, I'm gonna let 571 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 1: that go. I said, yeah, you might want, you might 572 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: want to let that go. I don't know. It just 573 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:37,959 Speaker 1: felt so invasive, but I guess they have to keep 574 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: the people safe or whatever. I mean. They was opening up. 575 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: I mean when I literally i've never seen that before, 576 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: opened jars, squeezing stuff out. He said he got a 577 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: lot of makeup. I'm like, first of all, sir, mind 578 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: your business is not a lot of makeup. And I 579 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:52,480 Speaker 1: was sure how I was gonna step out. He was 580 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: bending up shoes, he said, because people high stuff in 581 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: their shoes. And I was like, I'm glad they bring 582 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: my Jordan's because you had been increasing them up. But 583 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: I mean the officers are really nice, but it was 584 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: just a little ghetto. You know, y'all be talking about Nork, 585 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: but they don't do all that. Mm hm honey. So 586 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: that was my that's my travel break. But my travel 587 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: boost is this. So for the first time, I flew 588 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: Qatar Airways business class, business and first. And I had 589 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 1: flown a lot of business in first in the last 590 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: couple of years, y'all know. I just started because you know, 591 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: I was like, if the flight is over three hours, 592 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: then it's worth it for me, especially if it's business. 593 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: And I was flying for business because I was doing 594 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: the Mastermind. It's worth it to get to pay for 595 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: a business class because now that I have it to 596 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: be able to do it. And so I've flown business 597 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: class before. I'd even flown to Dubai before. I forget 598 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: what I flew. It was like United and Luftanza Child, 599 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: the airlines is ghetto because that oil money that Qatar. 600 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: I was like, it was like a room.

Child. 603 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: I mean, they were like hear your pajamas, and I've 604 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,400 Speaker 1: gotten pajamas on the airlines.

You can actually close the door, honey. 611 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: I never was able to close the door before. I mean, 612 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: the menu that they gave it was like, you know, 613 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: you could eat whenever. There's no oh, we serve at 614 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: breakfast at this time and this at that kind Now 615 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: you could order whenever however how much youever you wanted. 616 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't drink alcohol, but they had all the mocktails, honey. 617 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: And it was just an experience like none other.

And 620 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: I mean to the point where there was like a 621 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 1: separate bus, so like they will like let the plane board, 622 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: and then they were like, okay, if your business class 623 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 1: or first clars, he is a separate bus. Some people 624 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: even had a car that took him from the terminal 625 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 1: to the plane and we got to board last because 626 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: they're like, you bored right when we're about to say go, 627 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,719 Speaker 1: I was like, excuse night.

So the way I flew, 654 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: I had to go from JFK, which is in New 655 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 1: York to Doha, which is in the Middle East, and 656 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: then Doha is like a forty five minute flight to Dubai, 657 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 1: so it was like two flights, right. So the Doha Lounge, 658 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: the Qatar Lounge in Doha was spec tackle. It was 659 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: the biggest WoT I've ever seen, the cleanest of I 660 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: can't even it was like, I don't, I don't have 661 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: the word to describe. It was a twenty out of ten. 662 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 1: I've never like they had like a five star restaurant there, 663 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: and I was like, this is a lounge. It was 664 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: so huge, so much food, so much it was beyond 665 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: And what it showed me is that there are people 666 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 1: living a parallel life. You know. It wasn't too long anger, 667 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 1: I'll talk to teach a preschool and before that, I 668 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 1: was struggling. After that, I was struggling business owner. It's 669 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: only just now been stepping into my rich and even then, girl, 670 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: my little panties next to these people, honey, honey. But 671 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:47,879 Speaker 1: it just was the level of service that you get 672 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: at that level made me feel both bad and good, like, dang, 673 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,279 Speaker 1: everybody should be treated like this, But the way they 674 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: treat you at that level when you're in that lounge 675 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: or you're flying business class on a you know, on 676 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: a top airline like that, and you know, like the 677 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,720 Speaker 1: way you're treated, the way you're spoken to, the space 678 00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 1: that's made for you, you know, it's just it goes, 679 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 1: it just goes to show you have badly treated any 680 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 1: other time. That wealth really does open up certain like 681 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 1: levels of doors. You know. It was just a real 682 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: eye opener. So I don't know if that's a boost 683 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 1: to break. It's a boost either way. And like it's 684 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: a it's a something. And I just wanted to share 685 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: that experience because I said, I wanted to fly Guitar 686 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,359 Speaker 1: or Emirates, but Emerts was way too expensive to fly 687 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 1: out there. Guitar was half the price, And I said, 688 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 1: because I wanted to just have that experience. And I 689 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: had it and it was beautiful and it was amazing. 690 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it again, ad jod you've ever flown 691 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: guitar Airways or Emirates, let me know how. It was 692 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 1: the one thing I heard about Emerts. This is why 693 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: they charged so much, is they will come pick you 694 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: up from your house and drive you onto the tarmac. Honey. 695 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: But I wasn't gonna pay all that for Emirates. I said, Yah, 696 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 1: it was too much. But yeah, it just was like 697 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: an amazing experience all around. And like I said, I 698 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: am leaning in, fully leaning and fully to my feminine 699 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 1: leaning and fully to my success. Like my condo is 700 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 1: almost ready. When I tell you I went by the 701 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:22,600 Speaker 1: visit today, it is I can't believe that I get 702 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: to live there. It looks like somebody else, somebody rich 703 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,320 Speaker 1: and wealthy. My sister said something funny. She said, for 704 00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 1: the first time where you live actually matches your your 705 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: bank account. Ah, it looks I told myself, I'm going 706 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: to have all the good things now, you know, I 707 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: don't know how long life will have me. And so 708 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: while I'm here, I still look after my family, I 709 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 1: still look after my friends. I look after y'all, you know, 710 00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: through financial education and otherwise. But while I'm here, I'm 711 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: also going to look after myself because we are deserving 712 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,240 Speaker 1: of that too. That I too am part of the community. 713 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,040 Speaker 1: As doctor Green, my therapist always reminds me.
