No, but anyways, 217 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: so what I did was I created a numbering system. 218 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: So basically, if you use the skincare regiment from the 219 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: beginning to the end, you have where to start and 220 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: we're to stop. Because when I would go into skincare 221 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: stores or sections, I'm like, it's so much product. 222 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 4: I'm like, where do I start? 223 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 5: Where do I stop? 224 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 1: It's a lot going on.

So I decided to 228 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,560 Speaker 1: make it simple for people like I need it. And 229 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: it's just been amazing to see how there's so many 230 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: people that actually, you know, have been on the same 231 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: journey as me, was using regular body washing body lotion. 232 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: So that's been amazing. But when I mentioned to you 233 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:22,839 Speaker 1: that the company is in a transition point, because I 234 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: know my fans are like, what's going on with OAM 235 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: is I believe that there's more opportunity for me beyond 236 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: the skincare realms. So I want to really tap into 237 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 1: the beauty space in general, and I want to kind 238 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: of like open up conversation. And so we're doing all 239 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: that because we've I've been we've been very fortunate to 240 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: sell out of a certain SKUs multiple times, and I 241 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: now just have left. My serum and my brightening pads 242 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: are two amazing products. But basically my point is is 243 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: that I say get them, ale, you can get them 244 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: because OAM is about to evolve into a I hope 245 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: a broader stratosphere and an exciting one, and. 246 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 4: I all work is amazing. I thought it was yes. 247 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 4: And one thing we always say to on the show, 248 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 4: because we're both really into skincare, people have to realize, 249 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 4: like you have to be consistent. People think a product 250 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 4: is supposed to work, okay, as soon as you put 251 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 4: it on your skin, you're supposed to have this big transformation, 252 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 4: Like No, it's consistency. Consistency is consistency with anything is key. 253 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 1: I agree, though, I mean it's funny because you know, luckily, 254 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: because I'm a part of the formulation process, I have 255 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: like extra stuff in the can, but there was like 256 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: a period because I'm like doing new formulations and stuff. 257 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 1: So there's it's going to be exciting the stuff I'm 258 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: working on. But I went for a couple of days 259 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: without a couple of my products. 260 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, my lord, Like you. 261 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 5: Notice the friends. 262 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's crazy when you're consistent and you change 263 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 1: it up. 264 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 4: You see the difference.

Like I feel like we're pretty much always 413 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: on the same wave LinkedIn, and that to me is powerful, 414 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: you know, because it's like I feel like I'm you know, 415 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: everything that we're doing, Like even if we're in two 416 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: different places, we're building it together, right, We're building it's legacy, 417 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: and legacy is so important I think for for the 418 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: both of us, it is you know, what does he say, 419 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,239 Speaker 1: it's this power gosh, I don't want to miss quote him, 420 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: but saying there's like power to in the in your name, 421 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 1: like the legacy, like you know, it's important. So I 422 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: don't know, being equally Yoka is huge because I think 423 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: we kind of like, I don't know, it's it's a 424 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,479 Speaker 1: little less mixed, missing mixing matchy, like you know what 425 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, yeah, so I'm trying to think about 426 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: how a way to put it all in words. But 427 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,080 Speaker 1: that's just like I think the baseline is where we are. 428 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,120 Speaker 1: When he's doing something, I'm doing something. We're like there's 429 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 1: like this invisible chord where we're both moving like this together. Yeah, 430 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 1: you feel like it's always been like that since day one, 431 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: and like is that one of the reasons why you 432 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: were like, okay. 433 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 4: This is my person. Yeah. 434 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,360 Speaker 1: When we were talking and our date, the first time 435 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: we met each other in person, I just remember like 436 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: when he was speaking to me first of all, like 437 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: for a second he was talking to me and the 438 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: words is going over my head because. 439 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 4: I was just there. 440 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: I was like, oh my gosh, she's so beautiful.

I was just you know. 444 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 1: But when we talked and like really just like took 445 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: we took our time to talk. When he left out, 446 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: he said to his friend he was with because he 447 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: had his friend and because it wasn't like a formal date, 448 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: like he actually came to my place because it was 449 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: better to be more uh private, because when you step 450 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: outside and you get to know someone, they automatically label 451 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: you and that just gets in the way, like putting 452 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: the cart before the horse, like let's get to know 453 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: each other first.

Then I called my best friend 456 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:09,719 Speaker 1: Yoly because she and he was coming over, and I 457 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: was like, Yolis, like I want gez anything. But I 458 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: think he said, and I didn't want to say, she's 459 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: like the one.

Like 466 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: we talked about things like wanting to build a school 467 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: one day, and like wanted to write books one day, 468 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: and like God is so good that we've launched a 469 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 1: school in Seattle.

Okay, Like I was very clear, 494 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: and I know I've talked about this before, but you know, 495 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 1: I think it just comes a time in your life 496 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: when you're ready, right, you know, you you start to 497 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,679 Speaker 1: think a certain way, you start to see a certain way. 498 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: You know, you know sometimes you can you know, want 499 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 1: something for your life that you can taste it like 500 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 1: that to me is like that's a spiritual thing, right, 501 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: It's like when you feel through your body. So before 502 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: he came into my life, I honestly knew the level 503 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 1: of seriousness that I was ready to go to, right, 504 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 1: I knew it. I was very clear on it. And 505 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 1: that really that thought process like where the It's just 506 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 1: how I wanted to be loved, how I wanted to 507 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 1: be treated, like, you know, how was it? How was 508 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,719 Speaker 1: a person going to speak to me? How are they 509 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 1: going to speak you know into me? Right? You know, 510 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: how are they going to be? 511 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 4: What do they feel like? What do they look? 512 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: Like how do they walk like? I mean literally like 513 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 1: you know, because when you to me, when you start 514 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: to vision what you want your life, whether it's in 515 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 1: your relationship or your career, whatever it is, you see 516 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: it right away when it's in fun of you. 517 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,439 Speaker 4: But you can't see what you want if you're not 518 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 4: clear on what you want right. 519 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 5: You have to know what the right. 520 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: So once you start saying this is how I want 521 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: to live my life, then you also start to like 522 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: unsee things.

And sometimes what I've learned, 815 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:22,399 Speaker 1: especially for me, like even on the business side of life, 816 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 1: it's like I've seen so many women that have inspired 817 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,919 Speaker 1: me that I'm like, you know what, God, you got 818 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 1: it for like the things that I aspire to do.

You know, sometimes 830 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 1: a person can be like very attractive on the outside, right, 831 00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,319 Speaker 1: and then maybe there's some pieces that you actually do 832 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 1: you relate on, but like it can't be a disparity 833 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: in like how one person likes to live versus how 834 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,720 Speaker 1: you like to live, right, because that's when it starts 835 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: to become like you start to bump heads a lot, 836 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 1: and you start to like it's just kind of like 837 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,719 Speaker 1: oil and water, right, because like one person loves to 838 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 1: club a lot and you don't like to club a lot. 839 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: I'm just making up scenarios, right, but you know it's 840 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: like one person, you know, likes to like I don't 841 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 1: want to say work out otherwise, know because sometimes Russ 842 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: he'd be gim ratt and I'd be like, I'm I'm 843 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:42,360 Speaker 1: gonna sit up there. But no, okay, so let me 844 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: tell you we both love training the same. So let 845 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: me just say that like we both for app I'm 846 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 1: an athlete to you know, low key, I used to 847 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: run track and all that. So again we relate on that, 848 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: like you train together. But sometimes I do be tired 849 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 1: and I'd be like, okay, I seeing me come back. Yeah, 850 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 1: you know, but we do relay on the gym side. 851 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 1: But just saying, like, you know, it can't be like 852 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: polar opposites and the things that you like, like, and 853 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 1: I think sometimes for us as women, that's where we 854 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 1: get tripped up. Yeah right, I think does that sound right? No? 855 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 4: I agree. I think women a lot of the time 856 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 4: they will try to make things work with men who, 857 00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 4: like you, were already getting signs early on and he 858 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 4: probably wasn't the one, but you turned a blind eye 859 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,720 Speaker 4: to those things because it's like, okay, well we agree 860 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 4: on this, and we agree on that. But I think 861 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 4: when it comes to the important things you and someone 862 00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 4: need to align, you have to or it's also fear 863 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 4: of feeling that too. 864 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 5: People don't want to give up. 865 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 1: Like man because this isn't didn't work out, Like I'm 866 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 1: gonna look crazy? 867 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,640 Speaker 5: Do I fuck? Do I look crazy? Yeah? 868 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 1: You know what I'm gonna say. And then I think 869 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: this is important in conversation, it's like, what's not right either? 870 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: Is that sometimes two guys love bomb people? 871 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 4: Oh? I right, yeah, because that's not right either. I 872 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 4: was in a relationship like that, right. 873 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 1: It's like you coming in all strong, you know, turned 874 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: up making it like you woo, and then you just 875 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 1: drop somebody off like. 876 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,439 Speaker 4: You can't do that, show up as yourself. That ain't right. 877 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: It was representative. That's not right either, right, you know, 878 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: but you know though I do believe you know, like 879 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:19,399 Speaker 1: you know, how does a person talk to you, how 880 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 1: do they feel, how do they move in a room, 881 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: how do they talk to other people? 882 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 4: Like that's important, right, you see it? Like you know, 883 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 4: because you'll be out with the guy, he'd be talking 884 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 4: to the waiter crazy exactly, because that's what really makes 885 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 4: the person too. 886 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 5: I say that all the time. 887 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 4: It doesn't matter how people act when they're happy. It 888 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 4: really matters how they act when things are going wrong, 889 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 4: how they show up, how they respond when they're not 890 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 4: getting what they want. 891 00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:59,280 Speaker 5: It was like, do you suffer?

But I think the greatest thing to your 901 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 1: point is like when you move forward in your life 902 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: whenever you're ready to do it. You have to leave 903 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,400 Speaker 1: your past behind. Yeah, because it's not right. You know, 904 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 1: people talk about baggage. It's not fair for you to 905 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,240 Speaker 1: walk into the door with this new person, new energy 906 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,839 Speaker 1: and carrying old energy with them. Agreed, it's not right. Right, 907 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 1: we got to give the person that's in front of 908 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: us a new opportunity.

Yeah. 994 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 1: So it's funny because back when I was turning twenty one, 995 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 1: that was my first chance. I got to have my 996 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,399 Speaker 1: first drink. So I have my first trink in twenty one. 997 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,799 Speaker 1: And it's funny because you know, back in the days, 998 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,920 Speaker 1: they would do you know, like MTV Cribs and all 999 00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 1: the whenever someone does a show with the English accent, 1000 00:49:00,680 --> 00:49:04,479 Speaker 1: it just sounds expensive. So they'd be like Paris Hillton 1001 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: does is lovely parties one in Miami, one in England, 1002 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: one here, and I'm like, i want to do. 1003 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 4: A party like Paris Hills. Yeah. 1004 00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm a ceasing about Paris Hills the stuff. 1005 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,879 Speaker 1: So then I had my team put together a whole run, 1006 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 1: and my whole thing was I was looking forward to 1007 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 1: having my first drink. So we started the party tour 1008 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 1: and then by time we got to the third run, like, 1009 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:28,239 Speaker 1: it was actually in the Caribbean and the weather was 1010 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: bad and I wasn't a party person like that, so 1011 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, this party tour is a rap 1012 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,239 Speaker 1: because I mean, like, I'm good, like I'm trying to 1013 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 1: do this thing, but that ain't really my jam, right. 1014 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:39,879 Speaker 1: So then the cool thing was that I actually, even 1015 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,400 Speaker 1: though I didn't finish my party run, I did have 1016 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,239 Speaker 1: my first drink. And my first drink was rum, so 1017 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,560 Speaker 1: I always had a strong connection to rum. And then 1018 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: I knew I always want to be in the space, 1019 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,959 Speaker 1: but it was important to be authentically connected and tied 1020 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 1: into the space. So it's just a matter of time, 1021 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,520 Speaker 1: you know, before getting into it. And then, like I 1022 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 1: mentioned you guys, I was in the pandemic and you know, 1023 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,239 Speaker 1: I had just finished I had given birth to Win. 1024 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 1: I was breastfeeding for like ten months long enough, and 1025 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 1: it was time to celebrate that moment. And I had 1026 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: my first drink and my first drink was ten to 1027 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,480 Speaker 1: one in a mohito, and I was always still talking. 1028 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:14,960 Speaker 5: I was happy, I'm having a time right now. 1029 00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 1: No, it's a vibe. So my partner, Mark Farrell, he 1030 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 1: had actually started ten to one like shortly before we met, 1031 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,279 Speaker 1: and I got to shout him out because he's had 1032 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 1: a great business story. But he was the youngest vice 1033 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,320 Speaker 1: president Starbucks. 1034 00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 4: And then he. 1035 00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 1: Went off and started rolling. And then Howard Schultz, who 1036 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:38,719 Speaker 1: was the reason why Starbucks exists, he invested into ten 1037 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,240 Speaker 1: to one and then I met Mark shortly along shortly 1038 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:43,880 Speaker 1: after along the journey and I joined me as a 1039 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 1: co founder. But honestly, I just I loved what this product, well, 1040 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:50,919 Speaker 1: how this product was when I first tried it, which 1041 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 1: matters most.

I'm like, it's 1046 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 1: all the things that I wanted, the boxes to be 1047 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:10,479 Speaker 1: checked off on checked off.

But at the 1311 01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:53,480 Speaker 1: same time, I do think there's a stand up baseline 1312 01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:57,439 Speaker 1: with men and women, and you know, you gotta feel 1313 01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:02,160 Speaker 1: safe to like move a certain way someone, right, But 1314 01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 1: I think that a man should make you feel sure 1315 01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:09,280 Speaker 1: enough and feel good about being submissive. 1316 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:10,200 Speaker 4: I agree. 1317 01:04:10,520 --> 01:04:13,440 Speaker 1: I think that's important, right, you know, it's like don't abuse, 1318 01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 1: like you know, sometimes a person can like take advantage 1319 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:19,160 Speaker 1: of like when you're trying to like operate with them 1320 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 1: a certain way and then they just really feel like 1321 01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:23,120 Speaker 1: it's like, no, it's not that kind of energy, but 1322 01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:24,800 Speaker 1: I am actually that way. 1323 01:04:25,320 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 4: And see I feel the same way, Like I feel 1324 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:29,840 Speaker 4: like initially I'm always that way, and then depending on 1325 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:34,479 Speaker 4: what happened, Yeah, that's well, you're going to protect mode. 1326 01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 4: We're going to protect mode. 1327 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 1: Like sometimes a person can make you like be like 1328 01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 1: something about you is making me preserve ten percent of 1329 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:42,800 Speaker 1: myself Now I. 1330 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:43,960 Speaker 5: Don't know if I can give you. 1331 01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 1: And then now when it's like that and something is 1332 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 1: at least yeah, it's probably not right. 1333 01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:52,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, we getting some good advice. 1334 01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:53,120 Speaker 1: We are. 1335 01:04:53,960 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 5: It's made out of wifey material.

Okay. 1338 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:10,720 Speaker 3: I want to ask I want to ask this when 1339 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 3: I'm gonna skip down. Okay, motherhood ends your career. 1340 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:16,080 Speaker 4: No, this is a good one. 1341 01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:18,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I definitely, because we don't have kids yet. 1342 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:20,880 Speaker 1: And let me tell you something. Okay, this is a 1343 01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 1: lot of work having my precious babies and like being 1344 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 1: there for us and trying to run my own label, 1345 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 1: and like. 1346 01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:30,640 Speaker 4: It's a lot of work. I'm not gonna lie. 1347 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,800 Speaker 1: But what I have learned and what's important to me 1348 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 1: is to live. I remember talking to a few of 1349 01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 1: my friends that are really successful in entertainment, and they 1350 01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 1: both said to me in the same conversation, man, I 1351 01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,600 Speaker 1: wish I would have had more kids, and they can't 1352 01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:49,960 Speaker 1: have kids anymore because now they've reached that point. And 1353 01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 1: I knew where they were coming from because at that time, 1354 01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:54,960 Speaker 1: I think I was like just pregnant with my second child, 1355 01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:59,880 Speaker 1: and I just think, more often than not, in my industry, 1356 01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:05,920 Speaker 1: people give so much to end up with nothing. And 1357 01:06:06,120 --> 01:06:08,080 Speaker 1: like in the Bible it says, what good is a 1358 01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:09,600 Speaker 1: man to gain the world and lose his soul. 1359 01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 4: And that's a real thing. 1360 01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 1: Right. I've realized that I love being an artist, but 1361 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:18,360 Speaker 1: I love something that would never love me back how 1362 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: I love it. 1363 01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:20,480 Speaker 4: I love music. 1364 01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:23,880 Speaker 1: I love being successful, but it's never it's not going 1365 01:06:23,920 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 1: to be forgiving. Like I may have a really successful day, 1366 01:06:26,680 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 1: and then I may have a really bad day, and 1367 01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:31,320 Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, what's my baseline of success? 1368 01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 4: What is my baseline of wealth? 1369 01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 1: Right? You have to start really having clarity and like 1370 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,280 Speaker 1: how you see life as it relates to those things, 1371 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:43,400 Speaker 1: because if you put your validation the value of your 1372 01:06:43,480 --> 01:06:46,920 Speaker 1: validation in man or things, you will be forever disappointed. 1373 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,720 Speaker 1: So it's like, my baseline of success is me living 1374 01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:53,800 Speaker 1: my life as a woman, living my life, you know 1375 01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,919 Speaker 1: now as a mom. You know, like people oftentimes really 1376 01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 1: lose it mentally because they're not giving space for themselves 1377 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,360 Speaker 1: to do those things. Like too many of the people 1378 01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 1: that I admired and looked up to either or not 1379 01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:10,280 Speaker 1: here because they sacrifice everything for the game of music 1380 01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 1: or entertainment or right now are in. 1381 01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:14,880 Speaker 4: The weirdest place. And that's scary for me. 1382 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:19,200 Speaker 1: So I have decided I'm going to live my life 1383 01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 1: and it's a lot of work, it's a lot of sacrifice. 1384 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 1: I honestly be tired, you know, probably often times and not, 1385 01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:28,800 Speaker 1: but it's a season for that. But I believe that 1386 01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 1: I can go live my life and you know, be 1387 01:07:33,920 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 1: like as a human and still go and be successful, 1388 01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:39,600 Speaker 1: you know, as an entrepreneur. 1389 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:41,240 Speaker 5: Why not. 1390 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:46,520 Speaker 1: I honestly feel like empowered through my journey as a mom. 1391 01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 1: I feel empowered through my journey knowing that my kids, 1392 01:07:49,480 --> 01:07:52,760 Speaker 1: these beautiful, precious babies of mine, especially my girls, they 1393 01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:55,000 Speaker 1: see me doing my thing and then they can be 1394 01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:57,120 Speaker 1: inspired to go and do their thing. 1395 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:58,560 Speaker 4: Like that's legacy for me. 1396 01:07:58,800 --> 01:08:01,320 Speaker 1: So like, I don't know, I'm not going to always 1397 01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:05,120 Speaker 1: be able to be strong KD gangs forever.
