Speaker 1: So join me on this journey of living our best
Speaker 1: lives and understanding and realizing how you are your greatest STASSA.
Speaker 1: What I want to talk about is when you're asking
Speaker 1: for a new thing. I think sometimes we think that
Speaker 1: we want a new thing, but we're actually stepping into
Speaker 1: the old thing because the new thing is going to
Speaker 1: be something different that you've ever received before. And when
Speaker 1: you talk about a new thing, you gotta realize that
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to get them. Suffing yourself to to
Speaker 1: set yourself in a new place, a new place that
Speaker 1: may be unfamiliar with the surrounding. Again, you said that
Speaker 1: you wanted a new thing. I know myself. I said,
Speaker 1: don't want a new thing, and I'm uncomfortable. Heck, I'm
Speaker 1: saying I want a new thing. We're working out. I
Speaker 1: don't up here jogging for my life. I'm calling on
Speaker 1: the Father and the heavens above that I can breathe
Speaker 1: and that I can make you through. As I was
Speaker 1: talking to my girlfriend might Safe, She's like, girl, you're
Speaker 1: scared glowing. I say, girl, because I'm fighting for my life.
Speaker 1: Is the spect come out my face? So what you're
Speaker 1: fighting for? What you're ready to lay on the line
Speaker 1: so that you can do what you gotta do. Shoot,
Speaker 1: I just posted up this picture on social media, um
Speaker 1: with me and a studio, and I was like, shoot,
Speaker 1: if I'm not working out, I'm working on my dreams. Period.
Speaker 1: And you know how to look at back and it's
Speaker 1: like it's been a long time coming. But I mean,
Speaker 1: what is really a long time when you think about
Speaker 1: people have been in the industry, like for fifty years.
Speaker 1: I mean, look at Betty White, isn't she turning one
Speaker 1: hundred this year and by this year, I mean this
Speaker 1: one jeez, still going in it case, stop won't stop,
Speaker 1: get right with me and get excited here. Recently, um Jeremiah,
Speaker 1: we covered the carpet for any Power one hundred, and
Speaker 1: it reminded me of It reminded me of myself ten
Speaker 1: years part when I was here and my boss was
Speaker 1: me and a situation happened where we were out of
Speaker 1: town and um my mentor my boss, she got upset
Speaker 1: with me. She got upset with me because something I
Speaker 1: was intentionally doing to support her. It wasn't viewed that way.
Speaker 1: We were at a game or somehow. It was some
Speaker 1: notable celebrity or a past celebrity, somebody, you know. It
Speaker 1: was popping and I'm thinking about connecting with her to
Speaker 1: get the guests so that can get it from my boss. Well,
Speaker 1: my boss is said at the door. So I'm stopping
Speaker 1: and I'm talking to oh girl. I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm doing Dawn Day such as such. Assistant. Well, my boss,
Speaker 1: of course she's not in the air shot, so she
Speaker 1: can't hear what's going on. UM, I get the information.
Speaker 1: I go there and my boss is like, well, what
Speaker 1: were you doing. You're supposed to be handling me, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my gosh, everything I'm doing is for you.
Speaker 1: But you gotta remember, like things are about optics and perception.
Speaker 1: And I'm going through this because you know, my mama
Speaker 1: used to always say, if you want to experience something,
Speaker 1: you want to know how something to feel, You're just
Speaker 1: gonna have to live a little longer because it takes
Speaker 1: time for you to get in those shoes, to walk
Speaker 1: that feet, you know what I mean. So here we are.
Speaker 1: She got upset. I do really understand why. I'm like,
Speaker 1: everything I'm doing is for you. I'm saying like I'm
Speaker 1: doing Day such a such assistant. In fact, I was
Speaker 1: getting in contact with the individual for by then boss,
Speaker 1: but not fast forward, and I were ten years ahead
Speaker 1: of the game. And so here where I am. We're
Speaker 1: at the Beverly Hilton and Beverly Hills, California for every
Speaker 1: Power one hundred UM and we're doing the red card
Speaker 1: for doing some celebrity interviews. And this time is different
Speaker 1: because this is Provitamin D with Dawing Day. You know,
Speaker 1: before may have been other shows and other companies that
Speaker 1: I worked for, but I'm showing enough for vitamin D
Speaker 1: with dawn day. Anyway, let's get to the point. So
Speaker 1: Jeremiah is now me so live. It pretty much wraps
Speaker 1: up um. And so there's another young lady from another outlet, sweetheart,
Speaker 1: love her, adore her. Um, I know what it's like
Speaker 1: to be out there one man, bad man. So when
Speaker 1: you out there trying to ride around and get it,
Speaker 1: whoo whoo. So she must have asked Jeremiah's it's take
Speaker 1: a picture, of course, like it's fine, like okay, uh,
Speaker 1: But then there's a moment where I'm standing down from
Speaker 1: the carpet and old girl is having a whole photo shoot.
Speaker 1: So you know, at first I had said, let me
Speaker 1: digest and let me take this in and I mean,
Speaker 1: of course I can be dramatic, but no, it probably
Speaker 1: wasn't photoshop because there were several pictures. And then you
Speaker 1: know when you get into a selfie moment that you're
Speaker 1: trying to get the exact and the right shot, so
Speaker 1: there are multiple shots being taken. But nevertheless, I'm standing
Speaker 1: there waiting, so I said, m I said, well, let
Speaker 1: me stand in a position where I can be in
Speaker 1: some sort of view. So maybe Jeremiah doesn't know that
Speaker 1: I'm waiting or I'm standing here, so let me stand
Speaker 1: of you. Jeremiah't even Jeremy ain't even look at my
Speaker 1: white honey. He is taking the pictures. And I said, okay,
Speaker 1: let me digest and see myself get upset. And I
Speaker 1: try to question myself, said, ding, are you on some
Speaker 1: ego trip? Like what are you doing? Like what are
Speaker 1: you feeling? Because there's some things that you think about,
Speaker 1: especially if you're coming from a space where um, you're
Speaker 1: walking in your dreams, you're hiring your team, you have
Speaker 1: an assistant assistant that you want to grow, that you
Speaker 1: want to flourish. But then you know it's that notion
Speaker 1: of understanding what your position is, or someone say play
Speaker 1: your position, and playing your position is not down and
Speaker 1: playing your position is to doing the duties of your position.
Speaker 1: And at that point in time, Jeremiah's position was to
Speaker 1: handle it on. Jeremiah's position at the time was to
Speaker 1: handle vite him in deep with Dawing Day, and at
Speaker 1: that time vit him in d but Dawn Day was
Speaker 1: not being handled and perhaps that's what I got flustered with.
Speaker 1: Now did I go off? No? But I will say this,
Speaker 1: and I keep it real, because you know, vitamin D
Speaker 1: is all about shutting a light and look good and
Speaker 1: the bad um. So sometimes you know, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: be always rainbows and butterflies, like I might go off.
Speaker 1: So and this time I did not go off. I
Speaker 1: had a chance to digest. But I did feel like
Speaker 1: I felt the temperature going up in the arian realm.
Speaker 1: And yes, Jeremy's and areas too, but I always say
Speaker 1: like he's a different kind of areas, like he's so chill,
Speaker 1: and if he's turned up inside, you would not know me.
Speaker 1: You know, you're gonna know my facial expressions. You donna
Speaker 1: know how I'm feeling on the deal, keeping it real.
Speaker 1: That's just how I keep it trill anyhom But I
Speaker 1: really wanted to sit back and and really see it.
Speaker 1: And I was able to see from the viewpoint of
Speaker 1: what it looked like when I was in that position,
Speaker 1: and what my mentor saw when she looked at me.
Speaker 1: Because it wasn't about of oh understanding that he was
Speaker 1: trying to help this young lady that did not have
Speaker 1: an assistant to take the pictures. All I knew was
Speaker 1: that vitamin D with Dawn Day was there. Dawn is here,
Speaker 1: I'm your boss. You're supporting me, and you're not supporting me.
Speaker 1: You don't even see me. Now, I'm not saying that
Speaker 1: anyone's perfect, So I guess the difference that I wanted
Speaker 1: to make sure that Jeremiah is that unlike when I
Speaker 1: was in his position ten years ago. I don't know
Speaker 1: if I should say unfortunately, because we do what the
Speaker 1: best we can with what we know. But the patients
Speaker 1: wasn't exercise the same way because, uh, for whatever reason,
Speaker 1: the timing, whether the person wasn't able to convey their
Speaker 1: thoughts properly and what is properly in a way that
Speaker 1: could be received so that I could understand or so
Speaker 1: that it could be understood what they were feeling. But
Speaker 1: I began to understand, and you know, you you spend
Speaker 1: so much time going after your dreams and doing what
Speaker 1: you want. You want to have that team, you want
Speaker 1: to have that solid support, so you want your machine
Speaker 1: to work properly. So I had to sit down there
Speaker 1: and I had a conversation with Jeremiah. I said, you know,
Speaker 1: remind me to talk about this to later, and I
Speaker 1: want to give you a tippit whenever you're feeling upset
Speaker 1: about something, whether it be work or whatever the situation,
Speaker 1: take some time and sit on it so you can
Speaker 1: get your thoughts together, because I think oftentimes it's just
Speaker 1: like a teap onto something like that, or a kettle,
Speaker 1: you know, you just start going off the rictor as
Speaker 1: soon as it's getting hid, let it chill, Let it
Speaker 1: cool now, and let him marinate. Because again, if you
Speaker 1: know your team and who you're working with, you know
Speaker 1: what their intentions are. And I know Jeremiah's attentions. Yo,
Speaker 1: Jeremiah is for the team, like we all were about
Speaker 1: to go. Jeremiah is down with the team. So I
Speaker 1: knew that I wanted him to understand what my thought
Speaker 1: process was and how it was that you had to handle.
Speaker 1: So I sat down and said, listen, I was in
Speaker 1: your situation as far as being an assistant, and when
Speaker 1: I had the same situation happened to me. It was
Speaker 1: viewed from a whole other perspective or the same perspective,
Speaker 1: but they didn't take the time to explain what it
Speaker 1: is and how they felt and why they felt the
Speaker 1: way they felt. And I explained to him, I said, listen,
Speaker 1: while we're out here, handled me make sure that I'm good.
Speaker 1: Make sure that everything that needs to be executed with
Speaker 1: vitamin D was taken care of. Now there was a
Speaker 1: slight little who could have been a slip up. Eric
Speaker 1: Burn was there. Yes, Eric, when I guess spend my
Speaker 1: life with you? Oh yes, So we had caught him
Speaker 1: on the Harvard earlier, but as I was telling you,
Speaker 1: was wrapping up kind of towards the end. But I
Speaker 1: didn't get him to do um a vide him and
Speaker 1: d with doing day drop. So as Jeremiah pointed out,
Speaker 1: as Eric Manet is passing by, I'm like, oh, can
Speaker 1: I get a selfie? Oh? That could have been a
Speaker 1: moment for the drop, but oh we couldn't get it
Speaker 1: because why Jeremiah was down in the red carvert taking
Speaker 1: pictures an old girl. Remember, we got to play our position,
Speaker 1: and that comes to any aspect of life. And it's
Speaker 1: not so much of all you succoming or oh you're
Speaker 1: what was me to somebody else's just knowing why you're there,
Speaker 1: and perhaps that even goes for her purpose, like no
Speaker 1: one why you're here on this earth? Like what are
Speaker 1: you calling yourself to do? And play your position accordingly?
Speaker 1: And I think oftentimes you can play your position by
Speaker 1: knowing who you are, and who you are is noring
Speaker 1: what you came to do and executing that. So I
Speaker 1: had to take that moment. I wanted to share that
Speaker 1: with Jeremiah because I think we're all on the process
Speaker 1: of going after our dreams. I think we're all onto
Speaker 1: something bigger and better, you know. And I think oftentimes
Speaker 1: when things clashes in the workplace and relationships, it's just
Speaker 1: a matter of miscommunication. But my god, if you take
Speaker 1: him minute, then you just sit there and talk to
Speaker 1: somebody and tell them. Imagine how easy that is. If
Speaker 1: somebody doesn't know, they don't know, and you can't expect
Speaker 1: everybody to be in your head to know how you're
Speaker 1: thinking of how you want to do something. But you
Speaker 1: can't sit there and explain and take the time and
Speaker 1: lead by those examples, like I could have been an
Speaker 1: old Dawn and got upset like, well, my boss did
Speaker 1: this to me, and I said, no, what would Dawn
Speaker 1: want to happen? And what I would have wanted? And
Speaker 1: I'm not saying I didn't appreciate it, but I think
Speaker 1: I could have received it better had it just taken
Speaker 1: the time and sit there and by no means, am
Speaker 1: I saying oh, it's okay because I was doing it
Speaker 1: for her. No, I should have played my position, and
Speaker 1: if she wanted me to get that contact information, she
Speaker 1: would have had me get that contact information. But seeing
Speaker 1: me not playing my position, you know, that gives room
Speaker 1: for other things to be dropped. In the case with Jeremiah,
Speaker 1: we dropped the ball of getting the drop from Eric Renet.
Speaker 1: But guess what, Let this happen early. Don't be afraid
Speaker 1: to make mistakes, okay, because where we're going, let this
Speaker 1: be that free mistake. But when it's time for that
Speaker 1: multimillion dollar deal or that multimillion dollar interview, that's gonna change,
Speaker 1: right m D in the whole world's gonna be like
Speaker 1: or inspirational inside, We're not gonna miss it. We're gonna
Speaker 1: catch it. So that's what I want you to do.
Speaker 1: I want you to catch it, catch up. And just
Speaker 1: because exciting news to another breakthrough, I kind of mentioned it,
Speaker 1: but I was so excited about um or not excited
Speaker 1: was so Gunhold's talk telling this moment of this learning
Speaker 1: lesson with Jeremiah. But even over all of that, I'm
Speaker 1: so grateful that Jeremiah was there but it was so
Speaker 1: ecstatic to be on the carpet for I had em
Speaker 1: DP with Dawn Day, and can I be honest with you,
Speaker 1: I tried to get in my own way. I tried
Speaker 1: not to go. I tried to find every excuse not
Speaker 1: to show up for Dawn. Have you ever taken a
Speaker 1: minute to realize or to think about how many excuses
Speaker 1: that you've made not to show up for yourself? You
Speaker 1: ever thought about that? I hadn't had times where I
Speaker 1: probably was running lane. I didn't know if my brow
Speaker 1: was done, I didn't know if I was gonna have
Speaker 1: a makeup right. But I still showed up for another
Speaker 1: company and here I am a Vitamin D. But Dawns
Speaker 1: they had plenty of time, was not going to show up.
Speaker 1: I grateful that I did. I'm grateful that I was
Speaker 1: able to recognize the voice and say, wait a minute,
Speaker 1: because being on the carpet, I was able to to
Speaker 1: come back with the Wayne Brady, who I've called him
Speaker 1: on several game shows, and I call him previously as
Speaker 1: the I Heart Radio Music Awards and and then here
Speaker 1: and so he remembers me and where in the impart roll?
Speaker 1: So I'm putting it out there right now. We're definitely
Speaker 1: gonna do some more work together. Um. It was always
Speaker 1: great catching back up with Major and you know, just
Speaker 1: when people start to get that report and it's like,
Speaker 1: show up for yourself. Listen, every day if you if
Speaker 1: you're working for somebody else's dream, every day you decide
Speaker 1: to show up for somebody else. But let me ask
Speaker 1: you something. You're gonna show up for you? Mm hmm,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need you to do that. You know, I's
Speaker 1: always say how you are your greatest ass said, well, hell,
Speaker 1: if you ain't showing up for you, what is the asset?
Speaker 1: It's more just looking like an ass it And it's
Speaker 1: don't shut up, just keeping it real. Because I almost
Speaker 1: been showing for Dawn. I said, Dawn, you'll start the
Speaker 1: Vitamin D with dawing day under a comfort in New
Speaker 1: York on one forty things, say Nick five eighty two,
Speaker 1: Apartment five O five. Now you are here in Sherman Oaks, California,
Speaker 1: at Premier Network, sitting in this studio Vitamin D and
Speaker 1: Studio E, and you got the opportunity to cover the
Speaker 1: red carpet. You're trying not to show up. What get
Speaker 1: that hell up out? Of here. Remember I was just
Speaker 1: talking about earlier. How you know you spent all these
Speaker 1: years looking back or going forward and building the scene?
Speaker 1: How much persons how talking about how Jeremiah I was
Speaker 1: him ten years ago? So down here you go ten
Speaker 1: years fast forward and you're thinking about not showing up
Speaker 1: for you? What did you feel like not showing up
Speaker 1: with yourself today? About? I hope you don't change your mind,
Speaker 1: because you gotta know that you're worth it. But what
Speaker 1: you think is beating up inside of you? For why
Speaker 1: don't you think you're feel uncomfortable, field, stressed out, feeling
Speaker 1: like you gotta do something more because you're supposed to
Speaker 1: be doing something more. But you gonna have to take
Speaker 1: yourself seriously. M You're gonna have to put the pedal
Speaker 1: to the metal and make it happen. You know, dreams
Speaker 1: don't work unless you do. Just like they say, faith
Speaker 1: without works is dead. All it takes is the size
Speaker 1: of a mustancy. What you so you shall read? What
Speaker 1: are you sewing? What are you trying to read? That
Speaker 1: was deep? All right? Let me get out of here.
Speaker 1: Did y'all love that? That was like a check in
Speaker 1: or go off? That was whatever? However, for whatever the weather.
Speaker 1: But let me get my uh, I gotta do my
Speaker 1: laundry or should I say, how's keeping my bear? All right? Guys?
Speaker 1: Um oh, I got vite a chest on here? Let
Speaker 1: me go, want to write a chest? It's been a minute. Oh,
Speaker 1: in case you're new, In case you don't know, by
Speaker 1: the chest is where I have terms in here and
Speaker 1: basically anything that comes to mind, and I like to
Speaker 1: use my whole improv I'll just say something inspirational about it,
Speaker 1: like whatever. So let's see what we got and I
Speaker 1: want you to use to say with your life. I
Speaker 1: like that? All right? What's the word call time? Because
Speaker 1: I've been in the acting room and voiceover around and
Speaker 1: even I've done some modeling to I understand the purpose
Speaker 1: or the how important a call time is. Now. A
Speaker 1: call time is the time of what you need to
Speaker 1: show up, show up perhaps for a job. As we
Speaker 1: talk about vitamins deep with Dawn Day, about getting excited
Speaker 1: about your life and living life on purpose and for
Speaker 1: a purpose. The call time is to wake up to
Speaker 1: live in your best life. And what that looks like
Speaker 1: is knowing who you are. What that looks like is
Speaker 1: investing in yourself. So it's the call time. You're ready
Speaker 1: to wake up? TikTok, TikTok, it's calling the time. And
Speaker 1: you know one thing about time. Once suspense, you can't
Speaker 1: get it back. So if the time it's all in
Speaker 1: my question for you, are you answering? And once you're
Speaker 1: picking up, what is you saying? Faith with our works
Speaker 1: is dead? What you sold you shall reap. Dreams don't
Speaker 1: work unless you do who's calling you? So yeah, that's
Speaker 1: what calling time is to me, show up, show up?
Speaker 1: I said, show up, all right, all right? So other housekeeping,
