60
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: you so much for having me. Thank you. I wanted

61
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: to personalize that intro a little bit more soon than

62
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: just saying words, because when you're talking about something that is,

63
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: you know, people know what a bank teller does, they

64
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: know what a mailman does. They might even know what

65
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: an engineer does. You know, but to do what you

66
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: do requires a certain degree of explanation. So let's start

67
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: out allowing you explain your gift. Sure, So I have

68
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 1: a god given gift where I can literally look at

69
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: someone or hear their boys, look at a photo, and

70
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: know everything that has transpired in their lives, ranging from

71
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: past present as well as their future. Um, it is

72
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: a gift that I was doing with my family. Realized

73
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,239
Speaker 1: that I'm six years old, that I had this gift,

74
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: and I used it to give you the insight and

75
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: the confirmation and the direction that you need in your

76
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: life that really propel. So I use it in a

77
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: positive manner. So I have a gift life. Just know

78
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: everything about your life right now? That's that's that sounds great. Okay,

79
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 1: a lot of people might want to might be comfortable

80
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 1: with discussing the past, maybe even the present. It is

81
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 1: the future that might throw people into because like it's

82
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: like I said, I think that the cool thing about

83
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 1: what you do is that we all I'll talk about

84
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: setting goal a lot on this show. That's that's the

85
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: purpose and setting plans. You gotta have a direction, you

86
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: have to be focused. But being able to tell people

87
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: what the possibility of the future is, doesn't that help

88
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 1: them set stronger goals? They're aligned with that prediction. Absolutely,

89
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: And that's why I incorporated life coach to my brain

90
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: because it definitely is a lot of coaching based off

91
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: of the information that I know that's transpired in their

92
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: past as well as their presence. I'm giving them the

93
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: road map and the two and the resources to sixty

94
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: to get to where they need to be. Now, I

95
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: include a possibility of your future because I cannot predict

96
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: anyone to teach you. I'm not God. Um it is

97
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 1: a guy gonna get but I'm not God. But based

98
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: off of what I know you can do to get there,

99
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: I'll give you the insight and most clients who listen

100
00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: to me it almost ends up successful, right, And so

101
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 1: basically you're saying, look, I'm not telling you like you're

102
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,359
Speaker 1: going to find a hundred thousand dollars next week, but

103
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 1: I can't tell you how you can get to that

104
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars based on what I know of you,

105
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: what my intuition is telling me you're capable of doing,

106
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: which is really really cool, you know, because we always

107
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 1: we always see that a lot that will just go

108
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,679
Speaker 1: back to normal because the coach is seeing an athlete

109
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: and say, you know, if you if you work hard,

110
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 1: you show up on time, and you give a then

111
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: you could be you could reach your goals as an athlete. Now,

112
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: as a life coach, we don't have that. We can't

113
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: tell somebody that you know, in order for you to

114
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: be successful, we can do it at certain levels. We

115
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 1: can tell you go to the school and get a

116
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: college degree, or graduate from high school, or go to

117
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: a trade school. But from a life perspective, you're doing

118
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: something rather unique, aren't you, Tosh? Absolutely yeah, because I'm

119
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: literally giving you the road map. People jokingly say that

120
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: I'm like the che quote to life, because I'm giving

121
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: you the road map of what you need to do.

122
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: To get to where you desire to be God given purpose?

123
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: You know, I know what's happening. I want everyone to

124
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: just winning life, you know. So I'm the I'm the

125
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: resource for that. Right. So now they're always skeptics, you know. Okay,

126
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: Now how do you fight the skeptic? You know? And

127
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, here's the funny part about it. There's skeptics,

128
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 1: and people hire you even though they're skeptical. Yes, how

129
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: do you walk? How do you get passed us that

130
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: skepticism over? First? You might hire just the industry in general. Yeah,

131
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I just speak to them. I'm like, listen,

132
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 1: you know, I'm here to give you whatever God told

133
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: me to give you. I goes to the process, never chance,

134
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 1: even for skeptics, and I say, whatever God told me, Tony,

135
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it to you. And I pray before

136
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 1: I speak to each of you, one of my clients,

137
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: so they can know where my information is coming from.

138
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: And I just start speaking. So with the information that

139
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: I give them without them not telling me a thing,

140
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: there's no way they can get a stepics because they're like,

141
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 1: how do you know this? What they just shot? And

142
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: I love those times I love the skeptics. I know,

143
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: you know, it's really funny because my wife heard the

144
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: interview on Tuesday that we did on month Making Conversation Live,

145
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,560

152
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: It's just that I'm a planner. I'm a guy that

153
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: that that all my life, I've been pretty focused. And

154
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: I said, if I stay focused on what I'm supposed

155
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 1: to do, then I'm gonna reach my goals. And her

156
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: her skill is a life coach. A lot of people

157
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: who sometimes maybe not as focused I am, maybe undone,

158
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: understand time management and get them aligned. That's why I

159
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 1: really love promoting your brand because I feel it's essential

160
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: to a lot of people to understand what's it expected

161
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 1: of them based on what you see of them, and

162
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,040
Speaker 1: how they can reach them. Talk about that. Yeah, I

163
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 1: mean it's a process. You know what I want to

164
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: sertif by saying authenticity is key. I do not tell

165
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: people what they want to know. I tell them what

166
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 1: they need to hear, basically what's coming up for me.

167
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: And sometimes it's not the best. Everything is not always

168
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: flowers and sunshine. Sometimes we have to have full flegged,

169
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: hard conversations about where you are with your life and

170
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: being true to that. And so I'm compassionate, I'm gifted,

171
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: I'm intuitive, and I'm giving you your truth that you

172
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: can get to where your destiny to be. And that's it.

173
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: It is a process. And what the process starts how

174
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: because you know, sitting down with Tas for a talk

175
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 1: to Tash, that's the that's the session you know has

176
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: TV show written now all over it if a life

177
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 1: changing moment where she has an open and honest conversation

178
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: about what is working and not working in your life.

179
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: Right there is the key right there because a lot

180
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: of people out there, Tosh, because I want to get

181
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: down and dirty with your on it, because a lot

182
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 1: of people out there need to hear the truth. Now. Now,

183
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: if you have this gift, how do you break the

184
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: truth to people? I'm saying you need to stop doing

185
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: this when sometimes doing this is easy for them. It's easy.

186
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna hund your person authentic, you know,

187
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: I mean with s You've known me for a long

188
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: time now. I don't go back and from New York,

189
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: so you know, I give it how it is no chasing.

190
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people who come to me and

191
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 1: want to know about their relationships. It's my spouse cheating

192
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: on me, right, computing on you. I'm gonna say your

193
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: spouse is cheating on you, and then I'll give them

194
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: whatever they need to find out why this is happening,

195
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: on how this is happening, to deal with the situation.

196
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: So again they want to know the truth. But sometimes

197
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: people can't handle the truth. So I just tell them, scared,

198
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. This is what we have and

199
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: this is what's going on. It's shocking, but it's it's

200
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: also healing in the same sense. Well, you know, here's

201
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: the funny point about it, and is maybe not funny

202
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: to some people. Go if you're coming to Taj and

203
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 1: say is he cheating on me? Yes? Is she cheating

204
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: on yes? Because you already at that question that questioning

205
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: stage if you already doubt enough enough evidence has been planned.

206
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 1: Now you just want to Now you're just trying to

207
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: get evidence on it concrete things. So now now your layer.

208
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: Now you bring up the whole cheating thing. But you're

209
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 1: deeper than that, because you're talking about career talk, financial talk,

210
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: business decision talks. So let's break down each layer because

211
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 1: we always can talk about the emotional relationship because that

212
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 1: that that that resonates openly with people, because you know,

213
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: people show they like you said, you wear your emotions

214
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: on your skin. Sometimes you know when your sleeve I

215
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 1: should say. So, now with that being said, how do

216
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 1: you talk to somebody in a talk to tash session

217
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: about their business? How do you focus that person in? Yeah?

218
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: So usually I come up with Usually a strategy will

219
00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 1: come up. Right, the first thing that comes up is

220
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: the business, Like, hey, it's coming up to me that

221
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: you have a passion to start a business. Yes, something's

222
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: come up through with real estate. Real estate may come

223
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: up and I'm like, okay, great, how you can get

224
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,800
Speaker 1: involved in real estate? Get involved with I don't know Airbnb,

225
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: this like I give them the road map basically, what's

226
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: coming up for me for them to really thrive within

227
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: the space of real estate for example. Right, so it

228
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: comes up for me intuitively what it is, and then

229
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: I tell them what they need to do to propel

230
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: in the area. If I'm making sense, but what makes

231
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. I'm talking to tash Leah Hamilton's

232
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: she's an intuitive coach in other words, life coach. In

233
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: other words, I wouldn't say she um kids gifts and

234
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: her gifts allow her to be able to get you

235
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,319
Speaker 1: focused on what your life or path you should take.

236
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 1: Because that's the key. Because I'm gonna keep bringing that

237
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 1: more and more because reaching your perfect guests for me

238
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: on money making conversation, because I'm always telling people is

239
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: that you know I'm talking about you know, leave with

240
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 1: your gifts. You know, uh, don't let your friends, family

241
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: or co workers stop you from planning or reaching your dreams.

242
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: And so basically you're just doing what I say as

243
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,439
Speaker 1: an intuitive coach, You're you're finding these people, You're setting

244
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: them down, whether it's a business or relationship or career

245
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,079
Speaker 1: saying Okay, I know you love basketball. I know you

246
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: play basketball, but you're really talented as a musical artist.

247
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: So so put down the basketball, treat it as a hobby.

248
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 1: Let's let's come on over here. But how do you

249
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: read into that? Isn't through conversation or just people have

250
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 1: a certain or passion that they don't understand they have

251
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: or don't value it. That's the key right now in

252
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: the conversation because becuse of the fact that you said

253
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: something through your gift, why doesn't that person acknowledge it?

254
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: Or they just don't want to admit that's the direction

255
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 1: their life should take them. Yeah, I think it's a

256
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: combination of many things. You know, Oftentimes people are afraid

257
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: of their own talents. They're afraid of taking a leap

258
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: of faith. I was one of them, right, it's the

259
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: matter of putting in the work to make those things happen.

260
00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: It may be easier to prick up the basketball as

261
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: opposed to starting a business, so most people want to

262
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: take the easy route. They want to say, I'd rather

263
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,439
Speaker 1: just played safe and play the basketball, even though this

264
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: is my talent and I think about this every day,

265
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: I would rather play safe because success is not an

266
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: easy route. You have to work for your success, and

267
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: people don't want to put in the work. But Sean

268
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: they don't They want to go with the ticket, they

269
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: want the answers they wanted to be given to them.

270
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: It doesn't work that way. And so in our session,

271
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: I say, hey, this is what it's supposed to be.

272
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: It's going to take this, that, and this. But in

273
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: the end of that road, here's the benefit. Here's the reward.

274
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 1: They need to see that, they need to understand and

275
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,199
Speaker 1: that there's light there for them if they put the

276
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: work in, and so I bring that out of them. Okay,

277
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 1: here's the here's the key term. You said a lot

278
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: of people try to take the easy route. One could say,

279
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: coming to you is an easy route? Is that true?

280
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: Kind of you know, I would like to jokingly say,

281
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: on the cheat cold to life because I'm hoping you

282
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: and cover the truth. However, it's still your decision. And

283
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: that's why I say I leave your past, your present

284
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: and the possibility of your future, because if you choose

285
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: to listen to the information I give you, great If

286
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: you don't, then you know, whatever the results are, they are.

287
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: I can't make you do anything. It's it's your fault,

288
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: is your life. That's the key right there. Okay, cool,

289
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: Because I was messing with it, I kind of knew

290
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: the answer when I said it's a cheat or an

291
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: easy route. We'll be right back with more money making

311
00:15:55,680 --> 00:16:02,480

325
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,160
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Money Making Conversation. As I continue my

326
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: conversation with intusive life coach top Leith Hamilton's I'm a teaser.

327
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: She could tell you look loizard. Some layman terms you

328
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: can tell you nor so you are going to be

329
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: an incredible basketball player. Okay? Cool? Really okay, But what

330
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: she's that's the that's the cheat right there. She's telling

331
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: you what you could be. Now the hard work part

332
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,439
Speaker 1: is accomplishing what she said you can be the same thing.

333
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: She could tell you, know something, you should go into business? What? What? What? What? Oh?

334
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 1: You wanted to open the line of such and such

335
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: she's said, you go, yes, well you should follow that dream. Okay,

336
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: that's the cheat. But the hard work is what she

337
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: telling you you have to put into it. So the

338
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: cheat is there. It might be an easy moment of

339
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: you skipping a line and focus on you. That's all

340
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 1: she's doing, y'all. She's focusing you to understand this is

341
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 1: the path you should go on. But what she's not

342
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 1: telling you, and what she can't tell you, is how

343
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: hard you are are willing to work for that dream?

344
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: Talk about that's it. But that's that's the truth with Sean.

345
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: I mean there it is blatantly. You know, I tell

346
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: people I'm here as a resource to you. I would

347
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: give you the road map, I would give you the resource.

348
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 1: So'll give you everything that you need. But if you

349
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,360
Speaker 1: choose not to do it, and that is your call.

350
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,719
Speaker 1: And often times people come to me for more than

351
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 1: one session and they take note or they record and

352
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 1: they're like, gosh, this happened. This happened. Everything's great, but

353
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: this didn't happen yet. And I'm like, well, what do

354
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: you not say? Well that said I have to do X,

355
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: Y and Z. I'm like, what did you do it? No?

356
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: With then here we are right. So it's really the

357
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: matter of taking accountability with your own life. I'm a resource,

358
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 1: but I can't control what you're supposed to do. That's

359
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: up to you. What are they outlets that you are

360
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,440

378
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 1: I always felt that, you know, I look at people

384
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:55,399
Speaker 1: this talented young lady, tosh Leo Hamilton's, she had a gift,

385
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 1: but she was doing another job, a well paid job. Okay,

386
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,120
Speaker 1: don't don't even rosy. It's hard to make people make

387
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 1: decisions when they're comfortable, and so I was. I wanted

388
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: to push her out of her comfortable state. So I

389
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 1: felt was her proper landing place and what she's doing

390
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,720
Speaker 1: now today. So talk to people about that big push

391
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 1: I gave you, Tash and making that push. It enabled

392
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: you now to start fulfilling your dream because back then

393
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: you could not have talked before her to people per month. No,

394
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,199
Speaker 1: and I just firstly promisel, I want to start up

395
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: with gratitude to you with Sean, because I think of

396
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: you every single day because I'm so grateful for the push.

397
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: You know, I working for a fit. I was an

398
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: executive in my own city and I had a good job.

399
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,479
Speaker 1: I was making good money and I met Rashwan and

400
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: we were trying to work on the show and get

401
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: me on television, and we got this close so many times.

402
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: But I think the reason was me balancing corporate guests,

403
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: corporate my guests, and Rashan, you poked me to the

404
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 1: side and you said to me, the only way that

405
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna reach your maximum success is if you leave

406
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: your job to give this a hundred percent. It is

407
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,199
Speaker 1: not gonna be what it needs to be if you

408
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,200
Speaker 1: do not leave a job. And I was like, no,

409
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: I need my salary, I need to work pushaw you understand,

410
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 1: and you said, listen to me, if you do not

411
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 1: leave your job and take a leap of faith and trust,

412
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: this will not work for you. And that conversation stayed

413
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: in my head. Every day I stepped behind the desk,

414
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: I heard your voice in my ear, literally no exaggeration,

415
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: and I just spoke up my day and I said,

416
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: I need to take the leap of faith. But Sean

417
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 1: said that I need to do this, and I'm gonna

418
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: do and I took your way and I trust and

419
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: thank you for that because now I'm helping thousands of

420
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: people annually around the globe, four hundred clients a mom

421
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: at plus and it is growing. And I'm just thankful

422
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 1: that I'm able to impact so many lives. And that's

423
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 1: thank you to you. Well, you know, thank you, you know,

424
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 1: I say. The part of the story was that I

425
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:57,399
Speaker 1: gave her advice. Did I disappear? No, not really. You're

426
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: always here. I'm always there, but you don't like I said.

427
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: You know, advice is how you accept it. And I

428
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 1: said that when I said disappeared, I wasn't there. And

429
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: she's gonna disappear. And it's since that she can't she

430
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 1: can't write out applications, she can't make you do push up,

431
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: she can't make you get up at four thirty or

432
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 1: five thirty every morning. She's not gonna physically be there,

433
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 1: so she's gonna disappear from the standpoint of In order

434
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: for you to achieve the goals that the dreams or

435
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: the expectations that she feeled through her life coach in twuitiveness,

436
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: you have to do it yourself. And so even though

437
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 1: I had this intuition and then Lord knows, I am

438
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 1: not Tosh believe me about her, but I but I

439
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,919
Speaker 1: knew that looking at her, she was happy kind of

440
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 1: but she was always talking about whenever she talked about

441
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: her gifts, she laid up and she she was confident,

442
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 1: and she started bragging a little bit. You know, she

443
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: danced around a little bit, and she has this really,

444
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,600
Speaker 1: really a great smile. And so when she talked about

445
00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: a job, she come down. When you don't do this,

446
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,959
Speaker 1: it was like you could tell. It was like, Uh,

447
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,199
Speaker 1: if she didn't have this other gift, she'd be very

448
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,360
Speaker 1: successful at it. But that wasn't what made her excited

449
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 1: about life. And that's what you're talking about. When you're

450
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 1: giving people life coach advice. You're trying to push everybody,

451
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: not just a couple of people, everybody in the direction

452
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: of what makes you happy and if that makes you happy,

453
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:23,760
Speaker 1: find out if you can make money with it and

454
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: make a living at it and then lead you to

455
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: a path of happiness for the rest of your life,

456
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: your legacy. That's it. Yeah, And I work with a

Speaker 1: lot of top executives of fortune Pussian companies, and I

459
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: give them the road back to make more money, to

460
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: be more successful. The thought I'm giving them rode back

461
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: to that, and a lot of them are extremely, extremely

462
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: successful as a result of the information that I gave them.

Speaker 1: TJ the biggest uh you know, this gift and that

476
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 1: like that. They are always skeptics. Like you said, when

477
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: you do your reads on your live Instagram account, how

478
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: do people react or do they just I'm talking. I

479
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: shouldn't ask you that. I should say what is the

480
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: most um endearing uh smile that brings your faith? When

481
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: you start reading people about their life, people get emotional.

482
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,639
Speaker 1: I get a lot of that, people crying. You know,

483
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: I've drown men crying when they speak with me because

484
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: I'm bringing up things that they are like, Wow, that

485
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: is it. That's what's keeping me stock. That's where I

486
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 1: can go to confidence, to belief in yourself. I restore

487
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 1: that in people's lives. So it's just it's a very

488
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: emotional experience in most cases because it's the truth about

489
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: your life and facing that. Sometimes it's not the easiest thing,

490
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: but it's necessarily well, you know, her goal whenever she

491
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:22,439
Speaker 1: has a client is to inspire, empower and possibly impact people.

492
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: And you're one of those people all over the globe

493
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: by where they're her intuitive ability and her goal is

494
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: to help people reach and live at their highest potential.

495
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: To all aspects of their life. And right there is

496
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: when people get afraid and all aspects of their life.

497
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 1: Like you said, people you know the natural thing is

498
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: he cheating on me? Or he is he the one?

499
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: Or she'd the one? You know? Should not marry that person?

500
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: You know? Those are courtions that are are emotion. The

501
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 1: thing I like about you you you move from that

502
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 1: lane of emotion to professionalism, you know, And I said

503
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: that means careers, business objectives, decision making and things are

504
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: like that. How you're able to make that shift because

505
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: you were initially about emotionally dread a mostly request that

506
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 1: will driven by emotion. How is that whole transition to

507
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: the career aspect and the business aspect been so rewarding

508
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,240
Speaker 1: for you as a reader? Absolutely so. I mean the

509
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: deep Dive session, which is my most popular session, gives

510
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,239
Speaker 1: you up to sixteen minutes with me via FaceTime just

511
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:27,160
Speaker 1: like this, and I am, I pray and I literally say,

512
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: I'm giving you the road map. We will cover health, wealth, love,

513
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,800
Speaker 1: career finances, because we need to cover all points because

514
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: some things affects the other. Right, Sometimes if you're not

515
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 1: really needs to be with your career, you may be

516
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,919
Speaker 1: black in your love life. Sometimes the career that you

517
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 1: have can be causing issues in your marriage. Sometimes you

518
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: know you want to buy a house, but you can't

519
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 1: because you're not making enough money. You're not starting that

520
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 1: business that you really want to start. So it's just

521
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 1: it's all connected anyway. And so it's an easy transition

522
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,840
Speaker 1: in the conversation because I want to see you when

523
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: literally in all aspects of your life and even health,

524
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 1: health is wealth. If your health is not together, then

525
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 1: the business and the money doesn't matter. So let's get

526
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 1: that in tight. So we're having real, full, flexed conversations

527
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: about literally everything, and those conversations can lead to financial success,

528
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 1: life success and when when your when your clients come

529
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 1: back to you, because these are not sessions that are

530
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,639
Speaker 1: wornt off. I'm just tell everybody, don't don't do do

531
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: not call TAJ if you try to get a miracle

532
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: in one session. This is a this is the word

533
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: life coach is important that you hear, which means that

534
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 1: you gotta be with her for a moment because she

535
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,399
Speaker 1: wants to be there. When as you start making your goals,

536
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,719
Speaker 1: because you have to reset new goals. So a lot

537
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 1: of people fall off. When they do that, they think,

538
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: woll have I made it? No? No, no, no, there's

539
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 1: a new goal. It's just like when Tom Brady want

540
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? What did you say, I want to

541
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: win another one? Okay he didn't say, well could and

542
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,959
Speaker 1: a lot of people all happened just to win one

543
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: super Bowl. That's why they never get back. But you

544
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: look at talent, the people where there's a Michael George

545
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 1: or Lebron James, all these people year ound when you

546
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: story like Lebron James said, why's Lebron James ain't so

547
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: well at his age because he travels and spends over

548
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 1: a million dollars annually on his physical fitness. That's why

549
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: he can play like he's twenty two. And so when

550
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: you come to TAGE, know that you better come there

551
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: with the expectation that there's work involved, positive work, because

552
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:21,719
Speaker 1: it's about you, and don't let work scare you, especially

553
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 1: when you're for the first time in your life. She's

554
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: gonna point you in the direction of happiness, and that

555
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 1: happiness would be achieved through your goals that she's gonna

556
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: put in place once she reads you. That put it

557
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: in perspective, that put it in place correctly, Tosh, that

558
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: is exactly what I do. Well. You know the thing

559
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: about it is that again she's a friend of the

560
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: family and I take no credit for her gift. I

561
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 1: take no credit for her success. It's just that relationships

562
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: are equally important your life, and I'm a positive relationship

563
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: in her life. I'm a mentor in her life. And

564
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: because we all need that, she wants to become a

565
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: mentor in your life. To reach out to on an

566
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 1: Instagram account as well and go to the website. More importantly,

567
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: know that she's there for you. I'm a friend, um.

568
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 1: I would like to say, you know, I'm a member

569
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: of the family from the standpoint of how much I

570
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: respect you, Tash, and how much I want you to win. Okay,

571
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 1: thank you for everything that you've done for me. I'm

572
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 1: so thankful for you. We will be right back with

573
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: more Money Making Conversation with Rushan McDonald. You are now

574
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: tuned into the Money Making Conversations Minute of Inspiration with

575
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: Rushan McDonald. This week, I said that with What Winning

576
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: Multimedia Maverick Talent Manager, Executive Abusive Arthur and CEO Mona

577
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 1: Scott Young, she provides advice on taking the time to

578
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: appreciate where you are. You gotta keep it and keep

579
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 1: it moving. But you know what I've been thinking about

580
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: a lot rasant lately, just the need to sit still

581
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: for a minute and to appreciate who you are right

582
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 1: now in the moment. And it's not about I mean complacent.

583
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: It's about taking stock and showing yourself appreciation right for

584
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: what you've a published and then using that to propel

585
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 1: you to the next stage. Because a lot of times,

586
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: like you said, well, go go, go, go go, that

587
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: we don't stop to really recognize where we've come from,

588
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 1: where we are in the moment, and how we can

589
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 1: take all of that experience, knowledge, know how you know,

590
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 1: and and use it as we move forward. If we

591
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,720
Speaker 1: were to listen to this four interview with Mona Scott

592
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: Young is available on Mindy Making Conversations dot com. Now

593
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 1: let's return to money Making Conversation with Rushan McDonald. Progressive

594
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: Forest metaphors about bundling your homon auto and sports three

595
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: goals is a hat trick, and when you bundle your

596
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: home and auto with Progressive, you get a hat trick

597
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: of great savings and around the clock protection. So you

598
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 1: might be thinking, wait, that's two things. A hat trick

599
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: is three, but in this metaphor, great savings counts as

600
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 1: two goals and sewed us around the clock protection, so

601
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: it's like four goals and that's more than three. It's

602
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: basic math. Forest metaphors by Progressive Bundle and protect today

603
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: Progressive centulty in Trance Company, and ifially get discounting of

604
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: the little in all states of situations. What grows in

605
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,440
Speaker 1: the forest trees, sure know what else grows in the forest.

606
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: Our imagination, our sense of wonder, and our family bonds

607
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: grow too, because when we disconnect from this and connect

608
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: with this, we reconnect with each other. The forest is

609
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,880

645

00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 1: this is gonna go SI you talking about this person,

655
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. But I have to give all

656
00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: that credit to my mother's Stay William. I think that

657
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: she would say to me every day, every morning, she

658
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 1: would say this to me and my sister Kia, smile

659
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 1: and the world will smile with you. And she would

660
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 1: she would say that, and she'd always sell us to

661
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,799
Speaker 1: close their mouths and listen. I didn't always do that,

662
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: but the smile in the world will smile with you

663
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:20,840
Speaker 1: is um, something that I've always carried with me and um,

664
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 1: you know, there are definitely situations where it is hard

665
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: to smile, UM, but I definitely try to bring that

666
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,160
Speaker 1: into all aspects of my life, UM, and especially in

667
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,760
Speaker 1: the stories that I want to tell. For black people,

668
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: I think we deserve joy. And you know, it's one

669
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: of the reasons why, uh my logo for my company,

670
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 1: I've wanted to find the brightest yellow possible, um ok,

671
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: that we deserve joy. I mean yeah, even even the

672
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 1: drama UM projects that I have, there are some levity

673
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: to them because I do believe that, UM, too many

674
00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 1: times black stories are relegated to the drama that we

675
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: carry versus all of the other amazing aspects that we

676
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 1: are as a people. Well, you know the reason I

677
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:08,919
Speaker 1: bring that up because when you come on my show,

678
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: I'm a guy, I'm a very visual guy, and I

679
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: noticed things and that's my third eye, I can see things,

680
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: and I see blessings. And your smile is a blessing.

681
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: And a lot of people don't realize that that's just

682
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: those simple gifts that God give you can enable you to,

683
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 1: you know, make your dreams come true, enable you to

684
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 1: o well, create opportunities that wouldn't be available for ordinary people.

685
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 1: And it's it's important to take advantage of all these talents.

686
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: That's one talent, your ability is that you're very articulate

687
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 1: and so and you know, because we once you say,

688
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: as Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas. You know, they always have these

689
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 1: stereotypes and then when they throw this then you're black.

690
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 1: That's even deeper stereotypes. And then you're throwing at the

691
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,399
Speaker 1: front of your resume Harvard graduate. Come on girl, come

692
00:35:53,440 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 1: on now, yes, yes, no, I I'm very proud of

693
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: the opportunities that you know, my my parents pushed me

694
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:08,920
Speaker 1: towards and that I, um, you know, actively work towards.

695
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 1: And um I had a wonderful experience at Harvard UM.

696
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 1: You know, going there is an eighteen year old after

697
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: growing up in the South and the Midwest, UM was

698
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,720
Speaker 1: definitely a culture shock in a lot of different ways.

699
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 1: But It just opened me up to so many incredible people,

700
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 1: so many incredible experiences, UM and UM really shaped who

701
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,240
Speaker 1: I am in a lot of different ways. And UM.

702
00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: You know, one thing that will say about a Harvard

703
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 1: College education, like it's not necessarily about what you concentrated in,

704
00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 1: like what your major was. Um, it really was a

705
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: curriculum that challenged you to think and how do you

706
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 1: um open up your perspective on the world. UM And

707
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: so uh and you know, so many of the people

708
00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: that I met UM from that time are still uh

709
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 1: a huge part of my life in a lot of

710
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 1: different ways. UM. I you know, I'm I'm a little

711
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: sad this morning because this weekend I lost one of

712
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 1: my dearest friends who lost her battle with cancer. Double

713
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 1: Harvard graduate Christina Donaldson, who was a big sister to

714
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 1: me and also a beacon in terms of her entrepreneurial

715
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 1: journey UM as the founder of Thank God I'm Natural

716
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 1: hair product line. UM. But anyway, Harvard was a wonderful

717
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: experience and I'm super glad that that's part of who

718
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 1: I am. Well, you know, I'm a cancer survivor. So

719
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: when everyone anyone, I lose a friend, use a caller

720
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 1: A friend. And I don't know her, but I know

721
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: she fought the same battle that I'm fighting all the time.

722
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: Because just because you surviving doesn't necessarily mean that cancer

723
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,399
Speaker 1: is not going to come back. But what it does

724
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: allow me to understand that you have to live your

725
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,840
Speaker 1: life and your dreams are possible as long as you

726
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,240
Speaker 1: planned them't so, and I see you as a planner,

727
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,439
Speaker 1: you know, because of the fact that you have never

728
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: let stereotypes, stereotype of being an African America from female stereotype,

729
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: coming from the South, coming from Oklahoma, aucashol And then

730
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:08,040
Speaker 1: you went to Harvard, you graduated, How did you migrate

731
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles? Leah? You know it was? It was.

732
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: It was a fun, windy worad Um. I didn't necessarily,

733
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: you know, coming from having Southern black parents. After going

734
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 1: to Harvard, they were like, Okay, you're going to bed school.

735
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 1: You want to be in school? Like what graduate school

736
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: are you doing? And I really wasn't clear. Um. So

737
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: I worked in financial services in New York and Chicago

738
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: and strategy UM, and I did, like every you know

739
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,399
Speaker 1: other good graduate of my class was preparing my applications

740
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,840
Speaker 1: to business school. UM and gratefully I am an alum

741
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,799
Speaker 1: of the Ron Brown Scholar Program, and they put on

742
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 1: a conference. Um the first time they put on a

743
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,640
Speaker 1: conference about the arts and entertainment industry. UM and UH,

744
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 1: a wonderful man, Charles King gave a fireside chat about

745
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 1: his life as a super agent, and I was like,

746
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: oh my god, this is so interesting. It was like

747
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 1: the first time that I heard the the phrase like,

748
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 1: you know, the intersection of art and commerce, which was

749
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 1: so interesting to me. UM. Malcolm d Lee gave a

750
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: talk about how he had, you know, put together the

751
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: best man and UM, I just connected with a lot

752
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: of different folks that showed me that there was this

753
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: creative path that I didn't realize was a real career UM.

754
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: And so I was unfulfilled in what I was doing.

755
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,760
Speaker 1: I was doing well, but it just didn't completely feel

756
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,760
Speaker 1: all every aspect of who I am. And so UM,

757
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: I took the leap. I quit my job. You know,

758
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 1: I had friends out in l A who were in

759
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 1: very studies as a film school, and I moved out

760
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,760
Speaker 1: to l A, drove across country from New York and

761
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: UM a week after I got here, after having some

762
00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:48,759
Speaker 1: informational UH coffees and conversations with literally anyone that I

763
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: could connect within my network. Um I started working in

764
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 1: the mail room at Endeavor, one of the major talent

765
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 1: agencies which is now called w ME. But um I

766
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 1: started in the mail room. After two weeks, one of

767
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: the partners put me in the motion picture lit group,

768
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,120
Speaker 1: which was a great experience to really kind of get

769
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 1: to know the industry. UM and hone my ability to

770
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, read scripts, understand different writers and directors, get

771
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 1: a sense of what my taste was in a lot

772
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: of different ways. And you know, from that one year

773
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 1: of working at the agency, um one of the agents

774
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: connected me with my first job out of the agency,

775
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: working for an incredible producer, Effie Brown. But let's go

776
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 1: back to that mail room experience because a lot of

777
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: people don't realize that that is how you break into

778
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,799
Speaker 1: the big agency world is the mail room. And uh

779
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: a lot often times the mail room doesn't come with pay,

780
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,439
Speaker 1: and your situation would and so a lot of people

781
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,959
Speaker 1: don't know that. You know, so you work in the middle.

782
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 1: This did come with pay, was a lot of pay, right,

783
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: So it feels like no pay, don't I'm just saying

784
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 1: it feels like no pay coming from you know, I was,

785
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,560
Speaker 1: I had a decent salary and four oh one case

786
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 1: like my dad was like, so we wait. And that's

787
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:13,719
Speaker 1: the funny part about this conversation that you're having with

788
00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,879
Speaker 1: your parents, Like when I when I told my mom

789
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: and dad, you know, I go to your age and

790
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 1: get a math degree, mind and sociology, and then I

791
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,680
Speaker 1: go work for IBM, and I tell them I'm equited

792
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,239
Speaker 1: to be a stand up comedian. So that's the extreme. Okay,

793
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 1: that's what I told my parents, all right, and they went, okay,

794
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 1: we love you, but humble. So you go from Oklahoma, Texas,

795
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 1: go to Harvard, right, I got this great job in

796
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 1: New York. Drive across the country and you're working in

797
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: the mayor room for way less money. Talk about that conversation,

798
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: because that's where a lot of people don't understand that

799
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,960
Speaker 1: you have to sacrifice and then also times you got

800
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:50,240
Speaker 1: to take a step back to take to take some steps.

801
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 1: If that's a step back though, you know, when you

802
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:54,840
Speaker 1: when I hear people say that, because that's part of

803
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 1: the process, because you said going out on faith. When

804
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 1: you're going out on faith, that means that there's a

805
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,640
Speaker 1: plan in process, and you know, like you know, and

806
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,720
Speaker 1: I know. If you want to get in the big agency,

807
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 1: you gotta get in that mail room. And when you're

808
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,640
Speaker 1: able mayor room, you have to be humble on top

809
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,240
Speaker 1: of your job. You keep walking around that with no attitude.

810
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:12,960
Speaker 1: You get to see all the top game You get

811
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 1: to see stars come through those doors. You can mega

812
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:19,920
Speaker 1: producers and directors that you read about in the entertainment magazines.

813
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:22,879
Speaker 1: So you can't be oh my god, and so you

814
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 1: have to be professional all the time. So when I

815
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 1: don't really see as a step backwards when I hear

816
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,720
Speaker 1: people say that, because you said it from the beginning, Rocha,

817
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:33,959
Speaker 1: I went on faith, Faith is a plan. I would

818
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 1: tell people you have to have a plan when you

819
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,080
Speaker 1: do something on faith. I'm sorry. And then, but what

820
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 1: did your parents say when they told you you told

821
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:42,720
Speaker 1: him he was in the mail room. That's the funny,

822
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 1: but that's the part of the conversations I want to

823
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: hear a little. My dad was like, wait a minute,

824
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 1: so you're telling me that you went to Harvard and

825
00:42:53,320 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: now you're basically a goper like and I was like, okay, Dad,

826
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: I want you to read this book the mail room.

827
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 1: Like he was trying he was just you know, he

828
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 1: was trying to work. He's like, I don't understand, but

829
00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,839
Speaker 1: like they were super supportive. I was like, listen, I'm

830
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,880
Speaker 1: given myself two years to figure this out. UM. And

831
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,640
Speaker 1: I you know, I worked there was a company that

832
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: I had studied for, the GMT with that thankfully allowed

833
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: me to start working for them. And so I while

834
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,600
Speaker 1: I was working for you know, all my jobs working

835
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: for different people as an assistant, I was also tutoring

836
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,320
Speaker 1: for the GMAT on the side. He would have different

837
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:43,520
Speaker 1: clients and teaching classes virtually, so that supplemented my income. Also,

838
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 1: you know, writing coverage scripts to add add money. So

839
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 1: you just do what you gotta do. And then, UM,

840
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: you know, my path was always working for other people

841
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 1: while also making content on my own with different writers

842
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,479
Speaker 1: and directors in my network, UM and building that way.

843
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:03,160
Speaker 1: And so you know, most of the times I would

844
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 1: work with people who were very supportive of that. Sometimes

845
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 1: that conflicted and you had to kind of I had

846
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 1: to kind of navigate that. UM. But as my career

847
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 1: went on, you know, it all merged and so you know,

848
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,240
Speaker 1: my jobs at UM, Like when I got to working

849
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: at Macro, UM, that was my job was to make

850
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:23,880
Speaker 1: content and I always told Charles it was. It was

851
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 1: my dream job at the time, which was wonderful because

852
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 1: I got to learn from him and people like Poppy

853
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:33,320
Speaker 1: Hanks and can Roth and UM really had a lot

854
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:38,919
Speaker 1: of um I'd say, license to not just do short

855
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 1: form content, but also to explore and learn about long

856
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,520
Speaker 1: form content. And so, you know, one of the first

857
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 1: digital projects that I brought up in UM became the

858
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 1: television show Hint to Side that is now in its

859
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: second season on Netflix. UM and I was the one

860
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:58,720
Speaker 1: that brought in the movie Really Love, written by Felicia

861
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: Pride and directed by Angel Christie Williams, who also co

862
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 1: wrote the script, and UM, you know, after after making

863
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 1: that movie, we'll be right back with more money making

00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: treat for the crew and everybody, and she's like, you know,

917
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:11,359
Speaker 1: I really want to talk to you. I was like, well,

918
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 1: you don't enroll me while I don't get these patties.

919
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 1: She was like yeah. So she was like, you know,

920
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:17,839
Speaker 1: I really wanted to talk to you because I think

921
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,880
Speaker 1: I finally found the script that's gonna be my future

922
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 1: my first future film that I'm going to direct. And

923
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:24,840
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, really, tell me about it and

924
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 1: she's like, well, it's it's basically I feel like it

925
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 1: could be the next Love Jones. And I was like, Angel,

926
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:35,239
Speaker 1: you cannot say that. Come on, come on, come on,

927
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:40,040
Speaker 1: come on down right. It's like it's like, Angel, those

928
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:43,239
Speaker 1: are fighting words. It was not true. So, um, but

929
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,600
Speaker 1: I was very intrigued, and she was really excited. And

930
00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: Angel is you know, she's very particular and I knew

931
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 1: if it was something that was that special to her

932
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,359
Speaker 1: that I wanted to read it and see um. And

933
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: so she gave me the script and I remember that

934
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 1: weekend I was just gonna like take a little peek

935
00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,839
Speaker 1: at it, but I couldn't stop reading and UM I

936
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,399
Speaker 1: called her immediately, and I remember, you know, the first

937
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,000
Speaker 1: time I sat down with her and Felicia, I knew

938
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:11,000
Speaker 1: that I needed to bring this into macro and um

939
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,280
Speaker 1: and yeah, and then from there we developed it UM

940
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 1: and producing that with Charles and mel Jones, who had

941
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:23,879
Speaker 1: produced all of Angel shorts prior prior to this. UM.

942
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 1: It was just a really um incredible process. And UM,

943
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 1: it's a story that you know, I don't I wouldn't

944
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,719
Speaker 1: say that it is like love Jones. I think it

945
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 1: has you know, this kind of like lasting style and

946
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 1: it makes this impression on you that definitely like let's

947
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 1: just talk about it because so you know, like, uh, Netflix,

948
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:49,440
Speaker 1: I love what they're doing with for African American culture

949
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 1: and naturally international culture African African Americans and Africans period.

950
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 1: Being able to to launch their projects in a hundreds

951
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 1: and nanny countries. You're not being restricted to a domestic audience.

952
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 1: And so your brand is being a showcase worldwide. You know. Uh,

953
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:12,520
Speaker 1: you know, I've been able to learn about wine on Netflix,

954
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 1: you know, and then so that so I I've seen

955
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,120
Speaker 1: this in the art work now art my boy Michael

956
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 1: Eally who you know he did think like a man

957
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 1: and think like a man too to the executive produced

958
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 1: with Steve Harvey started caring on and my boy Will Packers.

959
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:28,600
Speaker 1: So I know Michael Eliot, so I saw him in there,

960
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 1: So okay, that's my boy. So it started picking up

961
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,040
Speaker 1: speed really fast with your boy here, you know what

962
00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:35,560
Speaker 1: I'm saying. And I got to watch it, and I

963
00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 1: got to watch a really um you know, I would

964
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 1: think that I would say that movies should entertain and educate. Yes,

965
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 1: and then when you do when you when it does that,

966
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,840
Speaker 1: then it makes an emotional impact on you. You know,

967
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: because it doesn't entertain you, you you you out, it

968
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,840
Speaker 1: doesn't educate you, then what are you watching? You know

969
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 1: you have to walk away with I don't know what

970
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: I watching. It was what okay, So so this movie

971
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,400
Speaker 1: gave me the three things that I needed. It entertained me,

972
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:08,840
Speaker 1: it educated me, and it pulled an emotion and emotion

973
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 1: was tied to art and ar like you have a

974
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: beautiful if you see this, if you're on my podcast

975
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 1: audio wise, just as beautiful African art behind her, and

976
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,719
Speaker 1: it just happens to be women. And uh as we

977
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,440
Speaker 1: all know, you know, you know, her company just a

978
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:27,760
Speaker 1: rebel works on project that brings the voices of Black

979
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 1: women in their black stories. So this is appropriate this conversation.

980
00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:34,719
Speaker 1: We haven't. And so when you tell a story that's important,

981
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: especially in any relationship, you're defining the voice of a woman.

982
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:42,279
Speaker 1: What's the key I guess language are angle that you're

983
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: looking for to make sure that the message of empowerment

984
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: and proper decision making is put out there correctly. Well,

985
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:52,839
Speaker 1: I will say, um, one of the things that drew

986
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,160
Speaker 1: me to it, Uh, you know, just even from the

987
00:51:55,200 --> 00:52:00,400
Speaker 1: initial script, I know that Um, Felicia Pride, the writer

988
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 1: who had you know, had been working on the store

989
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:07,400
Speaker 1: for a while. Her mangle was to show black women

990
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:13,520
Speaker 1: and you know, young black people as themselves, you know, loving,

991
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:21,240
Speaker 1: loving each other, striving together, striving for their aspirations and

992
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 1: um and showing that in a real way where you

993
00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:30,080
Speaker 1: you you fail, you make mistakes. So UM, I think

994
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 1: the empowerment comes from just being able to see yourself

995
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:40,920
Speaker 1: as a real, whole human. Um. You know, I don't

996
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 1: necessarily go into projects saying, Okay, how can I show

997
00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:51,440
Speaker 1: the most positive UM portrayal of a character. I really

998
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:56,239
Speaker 1: go into them thinking, you know, is this authentic? Is

999
00:52:56,320 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 1: this interesting? Um? Are they're compelling stays for this character?

1000
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:06,120
Speaker 1: And you know whether there's uh comedic ask tone to

1001
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:10,080
Speaker 1: it or a more serious and dramatic tone to it. Um.

1002
00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:16,879
Speaker 1: I just wanted to feel um, real and thoughtful. Well.

1003
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,680
Speaker 1: You know the thing this movie touched me in a

1004
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 1: lot of ways emotionally because of the fact that Suzanne Douglas. Uh.

1005
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 1: One of my first writing projects I did in five

1006
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 1: was with Robert Townsend's Parenthood, and she's one of the

Speaker 1: light on set every single time. And I remember like

1040
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:18,480

Speaker 1: just every time, um, every time I saw her on set,

1049
