I see people wear denim 139 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 2: to the gym sometimes, and I feel like that's unhinged. 140 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 3: I just I'm getting I'm so uncomfortable at the mention 141 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 3: of like denim and sweat.

And 336 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 6: so then I started doing more of the things that 337 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 6: were outside of the box for me, and I was 338 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 6: not really getting invited to a lot of blog events. 339 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 6: So I hosted my own event, like in my apartment, 340 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 6: and I invited all my favorite bloggers, and I reached 341 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 6: out to brands and made goodie bags and like put 342 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 6: this whole thing on and was like, I'm not getting 343 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 6: invited to the party, so I'm going to throw my own. 344 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 6: And it helped me not only rEFInd my confidence and 345 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 6: then it eventually led to me getting to know other 346 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 6: people at the company and moving to a different position 347 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 6: that I really loved with the best boss ever that 348 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 6: I still think about because she changed my life and 349 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 6: it completely changed my Color Me Courtney career as well. 350 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 3: That moment where you realize the dream job is not 351 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 3: actually the dream job, I think is such an essential 352 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 3: coming of age moment for everyone. 353 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 6: To me at the time, it felt like such a failure, 354 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 6: and I think so many people are afraid of the 355 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 6: word failure. I kind of love when I fail because 356 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 6: a lot of time that redirects me. 357 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 5: The key is to fail fast. 358 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 4: Yea. 359 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 6: So once I could like sit in that reality that 360 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 6: this is wrong, I need to change. I made the 361 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 6: wrong choice, but that's okay because it led me to 362 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 6: the right choice. It led me to working on color 363 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 6: Meet Courtney more because I was not really super satisfied 364 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 6: in my career. 365 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 2: As somebody who fails slowly, I have turned the word 366 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 2: fail into pivot. 367 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, so, Courtney, As you mentioned, Color Meet Courtney 368 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 3: started as a personal blog, but now you have over 369 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 3: a million followers online and you're making and selling your 370 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 3: own products. I just know that there are entrepreneurs out 371 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 3: there right now who are wondering how the sausage is made. 372 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: So how many hours a week did it take to 373 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 3: build color Mee Courtney into the vibrant lifestyle, fashion and 374 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 3: culture brand that it is today? And then how many 375 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 3: hours a week would you say you're putting into it 376 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:53,240 Speaker 3: right now? 377 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 6: You know, every week is different now. When I first started, 378 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 6: I called it my five to nine because I had 379 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 6: my nine to five and I would come home usually 380 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 6: closer to like seven pm, and work on it during 381 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 6: the night and during weekends. And trickily, I probably feel 382 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 6: like I work about the same amount. I was just 383 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 6: maybe more efficient then because you didn't have time to 384 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 6: like second guess what you were creating, because you had 385 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 6: a few hours and then you had to go to 386 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 6: sleep and then you had to go to work. I 387 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 6: called it my hand I'm ontana lize, take off the 388 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 6: wig and then be color uity or put on the wig, 389 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 6: be color re course to take it off. It was 390 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 6: really fun, and I missed that time too because there 391 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 6: was a lot of other creatives in my community who 392 00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 6: are doing the same so we had this like kind 393 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 6: of fun camaraderie. 394 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 2: So I love how this work in your blog eventually 395 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 2: gets you a job producing handbags at Coach and obviously 396 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: you're working, like you said, you're five to nine and 397 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 2: you're nine to five, which over time becomes exhausting, and 398 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 2: you decide it is time to pivot. And Simone and 399 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 2: I are constantly fascinated by that little moment and time 400 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 2: in people's stories. Can you take us back to the 401 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 2: day and the moment that you decided it's time to 402 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,959 Speaker 2: take my side hustle and make it my main hustle. 403 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's weird because like when I started coloring Me Courtney, 404 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 6: it was really just creative outlet and then eventually became 405 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 6: means to an end to get me a job. But again, 406 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 6: I never really thought it would be a full time job. 407 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 6: I knew people did it full time, but truthfully thought, oh, 408 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 6: they had other sources of income, like I had New York. 409 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 5: City rent to pay. 410 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 6: And it kind of happened in a few ways that 411 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 6: I'm really thankful for. 412 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 5: I was a little early to the game. 413 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 6: I think right now, if you work for most companies 414 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,719 Speaker 6: and you have like a social media presence, it's really 415 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 6: considered an asset. But at the time it was a 416 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 6: little bit of like they didn't know if it was okay. 417 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 6: They were just like, we don't know if it's okay 418 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 6: if you're wearing our competitor in a blog post, but 419 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 6: you're making our brand, we don't know, and let's talk 420 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 6: about it and kind of figure out if it's okay. 421 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 6: And so then once I was like, you're right, there 422 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 6: might be like this ethical implication that I didn't realize, 423 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 6: then that's when I started to think of like should 424 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,479 Speaker 6: I leave or not. So I really wrestled with it 425 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 6: for six months because I loved my job so much 426 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 6: and I love the people I worked with, and in 427 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 6: that six months was like, I'm gonna hustle harder on 428 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 6: color M Courtney and I'm gonna see if I cannot 429 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 6: touch my coach salary. 430 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 5: So I put that away. 431 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 6: I didn't touch it for six months and tried to 432 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 6: just live off Color ME Courtney to see if it 433 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 6: was even possible. And then it also gave me kind 434 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 6: of like a little like security nest day to where 435 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 6: if then when I decided to leave, if it really 436 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 6: all failed, I would still have something to back up on. 437 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 6: Then the answer was what is there to lose? It 438 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 6: is scary, but I would rather try it than not know, 439 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 6: and so I just kind of decided to jump that way. 440 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 3: I think that that is such great advice, you know, 441 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 3: taking care of yourself, making sure that you have a 442 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 3: backup plan, and then also really analyzing the revenue as 443 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 3: it's coming in and being like, Okay, can I make 444 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 3: a living off of this? Like I'm gonna give it 445 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 3: a shot for six months and if I prove to 446 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 3: myself that this is a viable path forward. I think 447 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 3: that's really really smart. 448 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 6: And I will say it's really cool to see. I 449 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 6: recently reconnected with someone who worked at Coach Why was there? 450 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 6: She's very high up now and she has like a 451 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 6: very successful Instagram and things like that. So it was 452 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 6: just too early, yeah, and I was really thankful. I 453 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 6: think if they let me do both, I would still 454 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 6: be there, and Colouring Courtney would not be what it was. 455 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 6: So I'm so glad that it pushed me to make 456 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,960 Speaker 6: a choice about what I wanted and maybe realize. 457 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 3: What could it be. 458 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,199 Speaker 2: I want to tap into that business part of your 459 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: brain for a second, because every entrepreneur that I interview 460 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 2: talks about the very high highs and the very low 461 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,239 Speaker 2: lows and Honestly, you can experience both in one day. 462 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 2: You create content, you do brand deals, you have your 463 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 2: own products, which people don't realize is just such a 464 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 2: huge undertaking. Is there a lesson that you've learned that 465 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 2: you'd really like to save other people from. 466 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, worrying means you suffer twice, is like my life mantra, 467 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 6: not just for work, for everything else. And then in 468 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 6: this business, like if it's something that you create, there's 469 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 6: no rules to color me, Courtney. And so you get 470 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 6: into this thing where, especially when it's just you, where 471 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 6: you create your own really rigid set of rules, and 472 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 6: it becomes sometimes suffocating. And sometimes when you go left 473 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,479 Speaker 6: and do the other thing, you find all new people, 474 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 6: all new experiences. I even feel like that with like 475 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 6: a to do list, I think people get overwhelmed by 476 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 6: to do lists. Put brush your teeth on your to 477 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 6: do list. You woke up, you brush your teeth, crossed, 478 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 6: it off, done, Like what are you? 479 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 3: You did it? 480 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 5: There's no rules. You can make it up and kind 481 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 5: of build yourself up because of that. 482 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 3: That's funny, Courtney. All Right, when we come back from 483 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 3: the break, we're getting into color theory and our own 484 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 3: color stories. Courtney is going to read me all right, 485 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:55,360 Speaker 3: stick with us. 486 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 2: So we have to talk about color theory today. I'm 487 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 2: wearing coral, I did it on purpose, and Simone is 488 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 2: in purple. 489 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: Can you explain to us what color theory is. 490 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, So just color theory in general is kind of 491 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 6: like the idea that different colors have different effects, have 492 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 6: different alterations on our mood. Maybe like as I say this, 493 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 6: as I'm literally designing a red bedroom, but most people 494 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 6: would say that you wouldn't design a red bedroom because 495 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 6: it's like a very fiery color, and usually you want 496 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 6: your bedroom to be like more of like a blue 497 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 6: or green, like something more calming and centering. So just 498 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 6: kind of the theory that color can affect our mood 499 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 6: and like personality traits. And then also I think that 500 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 6: sometimes a color we like to wear or our favorite 501 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 6: color might say something about us or be something that 502 00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 6: we're trying to say to the world. 503 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 3: So there are a couple of trends that have taken 504 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 3: over the design world and the content world recently, like 505 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 3: the clean girl aesthetic, which is very minimal, not very 506 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 3: color forward, and also blanding. So blanding is this idea 507 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 3: that companies are reaching for neutrals, for really modern, minimalistic 508 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 3: silhouettes and design in order to brand companies. Because that's 509 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: just kind of like the way that everything has shifted 510 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 3: in terms of our aesthetics as a society. What do 511 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 3: these trends say about us? 512 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 6: First of all, I love that for them, but that 513 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 6: is definitely not my journey. And this is not my 514 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,479 Speaker 6: first time seeing this. When I was kind of building 515 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 6: color m Courtney, Like if you think back to like 516 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 6: twenty twelve to twenty fifteen Instagram, like marble backdrops, everything 517 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 6: was super minimalistic. 518 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 5: It was like a coffee shot with like your journal and. 519 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 6: Like that was it? Like that was the photo? Yes, 520 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 6: a million likes, you know. So I've always gone the 521 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 6: opposite direction. I think coming out of the pandemic, people 522 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 6: were reaching for color a little bit more, but I. 523 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,199 Speaker 5: Think now we're just raining it back in. 524 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 6: It's always going to be like this, Like there will 525 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 6: be times when people lean into color and times when 526 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,399 Speaker 6: people are totally afraid of it. I think there's a 527 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,439 Speaker 6: way to do both. There's a way to do color 528 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 6: and have it be clean. There's a way to do 529 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 6: color and have it be maximalist and over the top, 530 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 6: and there's a way to do bland and even have 531 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 6: it be maximalist if you want it to. 532 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 5: I maybe wouldn't call it bland, but like more neutral 533 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 5: colors in that case. 534 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 6: So I think it's just this desire to like streamline 535 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,959 Speaker 6: things make it cleaner because we just are so bombarded 536 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 6: with ads and content and things constantly, and our attention 537 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 6: splans are low. It probably feels really calming sometimes for 538 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,479 Speaker 6: people to just have like nothing going on. 539 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 5: So maybe that's why. 540 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 6: The blanding thing comes in, and as you're trying to 541 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 6: appeal to more customers like it's definitely a safer approach. 542 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: I love that term. I didn't know it existed. 543 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 2: This is another term that I learned because of you, Courtney, 544 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,719 Speaker 2: which is color story. We all have a color story, 545 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 2: and so I want to know about the bright Side's 546 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: color story. We have a gradient that is yellow, orange, pink, 547 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 2: and then purple, and we even have a little like 548 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: orange red in our logo as well. What's the bright 549 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 2: Side's color story. 550 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 6: The way that I see your podcast is it's just 551 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 6: like the right way to start off your day and 552 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 6: you can listen to it at any time. But to me, 553 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 6: it's just like such like a nice bright moment, a 554 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 6: way to like put you on the right foot in 555 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 6: the morning. 556 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 5: And so I love that yours. 557 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 6: Kind of looks like almost like a sunrise, or even 558 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 6: like a sunset. 559 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 5: A sunset kind. 560 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 6: Of serves as like a reset, a reframe, kind of 561 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 6: like getting back into like the right mood. And so 562 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 6: I think that's kind of a perfect thing for you, guys. 563 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 6: One of the colors that I find interesting that's in 564 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 6: your logo that if I had to guess what your 565 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 6: logo was before knowing it, I probably would have guessed 566 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 6: it was yellow and orange or yellow and pink. I 567 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,199 Speaker 6: probably wouldn't have guessed purple, because purple is such a 568 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 6: transformative color. There's so many different sides of it depending 569 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 6: on the shade, Like lilac and violet are night and day, 570 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 6: they mean totally different things. I've also found that purple 571 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 6: people are some of the most passionate people. They love 572 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 6: their color, and so I think those are things that 573 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 6: kind of apply to the bright side too, like that 574 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 6: kind of confidence and that boldness and that unapologeticness. 575 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 5: So I love that we see that in your logo. 576 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,239 Speaker 3: I'm wearing purple right now, I'm gonna admit I'm not 577 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: like a hardcore purple person, but I do love it 578 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 3: and I appreciate her because she's just so unique. 579 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 6: I think of you just knowing your personality, though I 580 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 6: think of you read me. I think of you as 581 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,640 Speaker 6: like a warm tone, girly, so like someone who loves 582 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 6: like maybe. 583 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 5: Like pinks or something. 584 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 6: I think because I spent so much time with you 585 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 6: when we were both matching wearing yellow at when we met, 586 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 6: and so I think that makes me a little bit biased. 587 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 6: Sometimes your first impression of what someone's wearing sticks with them. 588 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 5: But also I think. 589 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 6: Your personality backed that up. That you have such like 590 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 6: a warm and wonderful personality and we like instantly kind 591 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 6: that I was like, oh, I'm just gonna think of 592 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 6: her as like yellow, but probably if I read your 593 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,719 Speaker 6: specific personality, I would think of like more like pinks oranges, 594 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 6: like warm. 595 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 3: When you meet people, do you automatically put them into 596 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 3: a category like, Okay, they're a blue, they're a pink, 597 00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 3: they're a. 598 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 5: Babe, not too but yeah, a lot, they're. 599 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 3: Okay, Danielle's wearing coral. 600 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, So though I could be kind of a beige, 601 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: you're not a beige. 602 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 6: No, I think you're probably I know you wear a 603 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 6: lot of black because I just know you online, and 604 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 6: I think a lot of times color people a lot 605 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 6: of times maybe misdirect black as boring. I think it's 606 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 6: stylish and bold, and I think it makes a statement. 607 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 6: I also think of you as blue. But blue is 608 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 6: interesting because sometimes people think it's blue as like really serene, 609 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 6: like easy going, and I think of it more as 610 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 6: like a commanding force, like a wave. So it's something 611 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 6: that like kind of can come at you, not in 612 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 6: an aggressive way, but in like a really powerful way. 613 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 6: But for you, it's like you have this really interesting 614 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 6: power to be a force but something that everyone would 615 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 6: like be interested to see. And I think that's probably 616 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 6: why you're a good journalist, because you can get stuff 617 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 6: out of people and things like that. 618 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 3: So true, that question so good at that. 619 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 2: I need your advice, and so does everybody who lives 620 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 2: in New York who also wears all black.

It doesn't have to be super colorful, but 630 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 6: then you can still wear all black and you can 631 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 6: kind of have like a red lip. 632 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 3: I really want to bring back the orange lipstick that 633 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 3: I wore in high school middle school. 634 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: I kind of like an orange red. 635 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 3: Do you think it's time?
