1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: I had every intention to help women that felt like 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: I did. I had that north star, I knew what 3 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:07,960 Speaker 1: I was trying to do. I gave it my all 4 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: and so if now no one likes it, I'm not 5 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: going to feel badly about myself because I showed up. 6 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: And that's the thing, Jain. No one can affect whether 7 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 1: you show up or not. Hit about the failure and successes. 8 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: No one can affect whether if you showed up or 9 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: the only person that can affect that issue.

We're the 48 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: organized ones, let's face it. But no, honestly I was. 49 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: I was looking forward to seeing you today as well, 50 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: because we always a fun runner together. I'm so proud 51 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: of you for putting this book together. It's so hard 52 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 1: writing a book, creating a book, then going out and 53 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: sharing the story, then going through the emotions of actually 54 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 1: talking about everything that's in the book, and especially when 55 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: it's a book about confidence. Let's start. We know each 56 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: other fairly well, but I always feel like I'm going 57 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: to learn so much more about you today, which I'm 58 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: very excited about. When you were growing up, who for 59 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: you did you look at as the epitome of confidence? 60 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: Like who was it that you thought or what was 61 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: it or was it a character or a role that 62 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: you were Like that person seems confident, the person I 63 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: admired the most was Jody Foster. Wow. Yeah, I don't 64 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: really talk about this much actually, but growing up I 65 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: so loved movies. I always like the kid that would 66 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: gap at three in the morning and wish one day 67 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: I'm going to win the Academy Award for Best Movie Director, 68 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: you know, like that was the dream. And so I 69 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: really did look at who is in the space that's 70 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: doing the things, and Jody Foster always seems so confident 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: to me. She was in front of the camera, she 72 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: was behind the camera, she was writing, she was directing, 73 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: she was produced sing and so I just thought, of course, 74 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: I know differently now where you see a woman that 75 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: always shows up. I just thought, oh my god, she 76 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: must have like the most confidence. But in having learned 77 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: about her and her story, and you know, she's very like, 78 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: very private, and so I dismissed the fact that she 79 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: probably wasn't confident but always showed up. And that's kind 80 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: of what the book is about, is that you don't 81 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: have to always feel confident to show up. So, yeah, 82 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 1: Jodie Foster, I think, yeah, wow, I didn't know that. Yeah, 83 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: And I love that. I've heard you talk about that, 84 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: and of course you talk about in the book this 85 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: idea of how we think we have to be confident 86 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: before we do big things. We think we have to 87 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: have this courage and bravery before we do big things. 88 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: And you go on to say in the book that 89 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 1: I actually know when you do these things, that's what 90 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: makes you confident. What was one of the first things 91 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: that you started to do or experiment with where you 92 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: started to gain confidence or build confidence? So I love 93 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: that you said build So I've got a line in 94 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: the book it's like, it's like a muscle. You wouldn't 95 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: go to the gym and what gluts are still after 96 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: doing a couple of squads, right, you wanted to, but 97 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: do you get glue to still use your glue? It's amazing, 98 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: but you don't just go what you want to, but 99 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 1: you don't. And so that is like with confidence, we 100 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: kind of want it already, but if you think of 101 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: it like a muscle, you can go and you can 102 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: train it. And that's the point is that for me 103 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,679 Speaker 1: it became being thrown into the deep end not feeling 104 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: like I had any confidence. I was completely insecure. I 105 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: was actually very inadequate. So it wasn't even like, oh, 106 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: I just you know, I had it, and I was just, 107 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 1: you know, not feeling great about myself. No. No, when 108 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: we started quest, I didn't know what I was doing 109 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: at all, And so the confidence part came afterwards. It 110 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: came as the byproduct of doing things, figuring out, falling 111 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: on the floor, getting back up, learning from it, and 112 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: then over time becoming competent. And the confidence part I think, 113 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: I think it's just we want to feel great about ourselves. 114 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: That's it. We want to feel great about ourselves before 115 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: we try something. Active is everything? So how do you 116 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: shift that? And so how I did it was, instead 117 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: of focusing on the confidence, say what is that end goal? 118 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: I want confidence to do what? And now once you 119 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: have that, then you put in a plant a blueprint 120 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: of how you're going to get there, because your confidence 121 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: will come after that. I love that. I think you're 122 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 1: completely shifting how people think about confidence because I still 123 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: see those things like this is how to be confidence, 124 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 1: stand this way to do this, and those things work 125 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 1: and they're useful, but you're talking about a deeper sense 126 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: of confidence. How do you define confidence? And radical confidence? Obviously, 127 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: how do you define that? Because I do think you're 128 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,799 Speaker 1: encouraging us all to move to a much more deeper 129 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: level of confidence. Yeah, I'm trying. Definitely the word confidence. 130 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: I do think it's about a feeling. You want to 131 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: feel great about yourself before you start something, and radical 132 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: confidence is it's not about feeling great about yourself. It's 133 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: about how do I get to that end goal so 134 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,559 Speaker 1: I can have the life and the dream I've always wanted. 135 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: That's it And so it's not going to be easy. 136 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: And that's the big part of it. And because it's 137 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: not easy, and because you're all the time moving forward, 138 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: even when you're scared, you're moving forward, even when you're fearful, 139 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: how do you keep moving forward? Now, it's very easy 140 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: to say, oh, just do it anyway when you're scared. No. No, 141 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: if you've got crippling anxiety, if you're like really feeling 142 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,239 Speaker 1: badly about yourself, telling someone to just do it anyway 143 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: doesn't actually help. So to me, it has to be 144 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: a blueprint if you want to lose weight. Some people, 145 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: like my mom, she was so severely overweight. Just telling 146 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: her one, Mom, I'll get you a gym membership it 147 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't have helped. Because she feels so badly about herself. 148 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: She doesn't even have the radical confidence to walk into 149 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: the gym. So, okay, how do you actually get someone 150 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: to take their health or like take those stepping stands. 151 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: Maybe right now, all you need to do is put 152 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: your shoes by the bed. That's it. That's what you're 153 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: going to do. Tomorrow. You're not going to go to 154 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: the gym, You're not going to do anything else. You're 155 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: just going to put your shoes by their bed. And 156 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: then the next day you're going to put your shoes on. 157 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: And what you're gonna do is every time you do it, 158 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: you're actually going to give yourself a pat on the 159 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: back and said, yesterday I didn't put the shoes on, 160 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: and today I did. And it becomes these little microscopic 161 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: movements towards the dream that you really want, so that 162 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: you can build that competence to build the confidence. Yeah, 163 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: that I mean, especially that part, the competence to build 164 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: the confidence. I completely completely agree with you. I speak 165 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: to a lot of friends who have young kids, and 166 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: they always they'll always say to me like, oh, my 167 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: kid's not very confident and he lacks or she lacks 168 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: or they lack in confidence. And when I look back 169 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: to being a young kid, I would say I wasn't 170 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: confident when I was growing up and I was bullied, 171 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: I was overweight, I was one of the end We 172 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: grew up in the same area. I was one of 173 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: the only South Asian Indian kids in our area, and 174 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: so I was bullied for several things. And I would 175 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: say it took me a long time before I developed 176 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: a sense of confidence. But it was exactly what you 177 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: just said. It was building competence that led to confidence. 178 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: So my parents forced me to go to public speaking 179 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: school built tons of confidence. My parents forced me to 180 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: go to drama school, built tons of confidence. So when 181 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:17,320 Speaker 1: they forced me to build competence, that built confidence. And 182 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: I think we're so scared that we don't build skills. 183 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: We think we can solve how we feel without building 184 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 1: a skill. Does that make sense? Oh my god? One hundred. 185 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: And that's part of it. It's like me wanting to 186 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: let's say it is getting on stage. I was so 187 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: petrified to get on stage. But my goal is impact. 188 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: So Tom pulls me aside and he's like, Babe, as 189 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: your husband, you've said you want to create impact, but 190 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: you keep saying no to these speaking gigs, and so 191 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: I'm just letting you know that your actions aren't aligned 192 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: with what you say you want in life. So I 193 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: was like, okay, oh, how typical time when calling me 194 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,839 Speaker 1: on my stuff. So it's like, Okay, I recognize that 195 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: getting on stage actually does solve that serve that mission 196 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: that I really am like holding my core to. But 197 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: how on earth do I get on stage? How do 198 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: I build that competence when I just feel so badly 199 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: about myself, when I'm so embarrassed, I'm so I'm worried 200 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: about falling on my face and like really embarrassing myself, 201 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: How on earth do I do that? And it becomes 202 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: us that your parents forced you. As an adult, I 203 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: think it becomes harder. We get very in our own heads. 204 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 1: And I think you know, as kids, we are easily 205 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: You can learn, you can walk, you can tie your shoes, 206 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: you learn how to do you don't do it the 207 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: first time, but you just take time. But as adults, 208 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 1: we don't give ourselves the grace to go through that 209 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: training period. And so for me, and when I'm thinking 210 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: about public speaking, I do think about those incremental steps 211 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: in order to get there, because I can't just want 212 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: to To your point, it's like I can say I 213 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 1: really want this, but to so many people that it's 214 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: just not enough. It's like it's that isn't enough to 215 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: actually get people to act on their dream Yeah. Absolutely, absolutely. 216 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: Now what I love about the book, and I do 217 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: recommend everyone goes and grabs their copy. It's called radical confidence. 218 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: I'm speaking of leastabiliu ten nobs lessons on becoming the 219 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: hero of your own life. Make sure you go grab 220 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: a copy. We've got it in the subject area, We've 221 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: got it in the comment section everywhere. I love books. 222 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: I love content that has lessons and the fact that 223 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: you have ten in here makes it very simple and 224 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: I love that. And I want to dive through a 225 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: little bit of these so everyone gets a feeling of like, oh, 226 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 1: I need to, you know, go and dive into that chapter. 227 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: First of all, you say your dreams are a gamble 228 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: bet on yourself. And the one that I loved out 229 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,239 Speaker 1: of all of these was I can stop making excuses, 230 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: because I think there are a lot of excuses. Where 231 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: do you think those excuses come from? What were some 232 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: of the excuses you've told yourself, and what are some 233 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: of the excuses you hear that other people are telling themselves. 234 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: Great question, and I just want to say, sometimes here's 235 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: a problem with the excuses. Sometimes they're real, that's the problem. Sometimes, yes, 236 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: you have every reason to say I can't do I 237 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: don't have the time. Jay, shit, how busy you do? Right? 238 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: How busy? Oh? My? I think I work most days 239 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 1: seven am till like ten pm. Yeah, that's insane. So 240 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 1: let's say something comes to you. You can easily say, well, 241 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 1: I don't have time. Is that an excuse or a 242 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,320 Speaker 1: valid reason? It's true. But now if it's getting in 243 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: your way of your dream, how do you see it? 244 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: There's an excuses or is a reason. It's like everyone 245 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: makes their decisions, right, so you would make the decision 246 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: say I can't do that because I'm too busy. To me, 247 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: that's a decision that you've made, yes, And so for me, 248 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: the excuse is to look at your reasons why you're 249 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: not making the moves that you want to or that 250 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: you say you're going to write them down and then 251 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: with no judgment. You can hear me say that a 252 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: lot because I used to judge myself and it's the 253 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: judgment that would hold me back. So writing down all 254 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: those reasons, let's say, you've got your goal, why aren't 255 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: you there? Yeah, So my goal was I want to 256 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: make movies. That's where me and Tom we first got married. 257 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: Tom was going to go out make enough money, and 258 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: I was going to support him at home. It's just 259 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 1: going to be free year. So one year turns into 260 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: two years, turns into three, turns into four, and so 261 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 1: I start losing all my hopes and dreams in that period. 262 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: And the excuse I kept making to myself is where 263 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 1: we still don't have the money yet to make movies. 264 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: And that was the reason that I was that we 265 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: weren't making movies. Now, if I'd stepped back, said, okay, 266 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: my goal is to make movies. What are the reasons, Well, 267 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: I don't have enough money. Is that a reason or 268 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 1: an excuse? If you drill down, it's an excuse because 269 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: I could make a short movie. I could make a 270 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: two minute film that it's shot on my iPhone that 271 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: costs nothing. But in my head I had so stuck 272 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: to the big dream of making a te hundred million 273 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: dollar movie that every time I wasn't even taking one step, 274 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: I kept using the excuse that I didn't have money. 275 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: I kept using the excuse that we didn't have the time, 276 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: that I was all hang on them. In fact, here's 277 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: a perfect excuse that I wonder if your audience will 278 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: resonate with. We used to say, like Tom would go 279 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 1: out to work, and it's like, why wasn't I, like 280 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: really moving towards my dream, my goal? And as we 281 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: started to build QUEST, as it was getting more and 282 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: more successful, I was like, well, I can't focus on 283 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: QUEST because I still have to do all these things 284 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: at home. I can't put all my time in there 285 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: because it's left to do the laundry I still left 286 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: to cook. I was that a reason. I was an excuse. 287 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: Some people will say, of course you have to do laundry, 288 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: that's a very valid reason. Now here's the thing that's 289 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: a choice. You don't have to do laundry. And I 290 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: used it as an excuse time and time again of 291 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: why I wasn't moving towards my dream. Because the truth was, 292 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: when I finally realized it was an excuse, I sat 293 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: down with Tom and I said, baby, I love you 294 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: more than life itself, but I don't want to cook 295 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: for you anymore. I don't want to do your laundry anymore. 296 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: And so if I get time, I'll do it. I'll 297 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: do it maybe every three weeks. And so he's like, baby, 298 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: to see you happy. What kind of husband would I 299 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: be to say that I need it my underwear cleaned 300 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: because out of your your happiness. And so one day 301 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: I literally didn't do the laundry for so long. He's like, 302 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: all right, baby, I'm out a laundry, so I guess 303 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to work commando. And he actually went to 304 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: work without underwear. So you can see how one time, 305 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: once upon a time, I had the mindset that doing 306 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: the laundry was absolutely part of how you should live. 307 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: But by removing that as an excuse and saying, hey, 308 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: this actually is getting in your way of your dream 309 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: and your goal, remove it. And now where did it lead? 310 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: The husband went to work commando and I didn't think 311 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: twice about it. Why because I was working on my dream. 312 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: I love that that's such a great example, because you're 313 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: so right that often your excuse can be real, but 314 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: it can still be an excuse. Yeah, And I love 315 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: the idea you gave about making movies too, because I 316 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: do think we have the big dream and we don't 317 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: see this small step and the way you describe. That 318 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 1: to me made so much sense because I was speaking 319 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: to someone recently and I was telling them about when 320 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: I moved to LA and they've just kind of moved 321 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: to LA and they're starting out and they're at film 322 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: school and it's early days, and I was just saying that, 323 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: you know, when I came to LA, there's so many 324 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,840 Speaker 1: things that I still want to do that I haven't 325 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: done yet. But if I just wanted to do those things, 326 00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have built everything else. I don't want to 327 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: be someone who just has a big dream. I want 328 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: to be someone who's doing lots of small things towards 329 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 1: that big dream. And I think sometimes the big dream 330 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: cripples us and we keep pushing it off, and we 331 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: keep saying, oh, no, well, like you said, I don't 332 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: have a hundred million dollars, how am I making a movie. 333 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 1: We're living in this amazing time where anyone can make 334 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: a movie for very cheap, for free even, and it's 335 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: incredible to think about it that way. So I'm so 336 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: glad you've written about that. And in the book, just 337 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: so everyone knows, Lisa goes through in chapter one, she 338 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: goes talks about how you can dream big, how you 339 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: can change your life, how you can bet on yourself. 340 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: I literally just picked out one thing from one chapter 341 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: that I find interesting because I find that excuses keep 342 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: growing no matter where you're at, no matter where you're at. 343 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: And what I've realized for me is that my excuse 344 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: is based on a season. So right now I'm in 345 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: a season of writing. My book comes out next year, 346 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: my second book, and I know that when I'm writing 347 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: my book, all my creative energy goes into writing a book. 348 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: So I know that I can't really do many other 349 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: things that are highly creative because all my energy goes 350 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: into the book. But as soon as my book time's over, 351 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 1: I now get all this new creative time back and 352 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 1: I can do a lot of stuff. So during this period, 353 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: I accept that my excuse is true that I can't 354 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 1: do much more. But once that's over, now I know 355 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: I can go off and do other things. Yeah, and 356 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: I would. Actually then when I come to that conclusion, 357 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: going oh, Okay, this excuse makes sense based on what 358 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm trying to do, EI then flip and go cool, 359 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: this is now longer excuse. It's a reason. Yes. And 360 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: so because here's what I like to I actually like 361 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: to call myself on it. So at least you're using 362 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 1: that as an excuse, and so I want to make 363 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: sure that I'm always defining that word that gets me 364 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: the emotion I'm trying to feel to propel me forward. 365 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 1: I love that. That makes so much sense. Yeah, exactly, 366 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: And that's what You're right. It's not an excuse, it's 367 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 1: a reason. Yeah. I love that all right. Rule two 368 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: is called make up your mindset. And the one that 369 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: I loved out of all of the sections of this 370 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: chapter is I can get good at anything. Yeah, I 371 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,720 Speaker 1: love that mindset. Can you tell me about something that 372 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: you were once terrible at that today you would consider 373 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: yourself to be fantastic at. And I know you won't 374 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: hold back because I know we both agree that it's 375 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 1: so easy to like, never accept that we actually got 376 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: good at anything. But I'm hoping everyone and I'll do 377 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: the same. When you hear me and Lisa own that 378 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: we're now good at something, please see it as a 379 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: sign for you to own your own growth. Because we 380 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 1: live in this world where we judge ourselves when we're losing, 381 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: and then we judge ourselves when we're winning, and it's 382 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: so important to lose judgment at both times. So true. Yeah, 383 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: I being the stay at home wife for eight years 384 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: being thrust into question nutrition. I was just helping out 385 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 1: the husband. I'm a good quek wife. I'm going to 386 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: help the husband out. What do I need to do now? 387 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: I didn't have any skill sets in building a company. Zero. 388 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: I knew how to be a great wife. I knew 389 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 1: filmmaking because I went to film school for it, and 390 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: I knew how to take care of my two dogs. Husband. 391 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: That was like my skis, It's pretty not too bad. 392 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: But when you go into a startup company, every single 393 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: day I was faced with things. I had no idea 394 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 1: to the little things of a palette. I was shipping 395 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: bars off my living room floor. We grew at fifty 396 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: seven thousand percent, so literally within a few weeks, a 397 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: few months, I'm shipping out twenty boxes, and so the 398 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 1: ups guy comes along and he's like, yeah, I can 399 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 1: actually take a lot more if you put everything on 400 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: a palette. I was too embarrassed to admit I had 401 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: no idea what a palette was. So it's like, okay, great, 402 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 1: thanks mate. You know, when he drives off, I run 403 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: back to my computer and typing Google what on earth 404 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: is a palette? You know? And then the image comes 405 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,239 Speaker 1: up like, oh yeah, I kind of know what those are. 406 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: Where do I get one from? How much do they cost? 407 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: So I literally just keep typing in where do I 408 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: get one from? How much do they cost? And that's 409 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 1: the sort of thing that started to build my self 410 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 1: esteem around being the person that configure it out, not 411 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: the person that knows everything. And it becomes such a 412 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: safe place for me because now I don't worry about 413 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: not knowing something. I just if I have the mentality 414 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 1: and the ethos that I can figure it out if 415 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: I put the time and energy into it. Some things 416 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: may take a second what is a palette? Some things 417 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: may take two years. But regardless, if I believe I can, 418 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 1: I can actually take the steps forward. But I believe 419 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: I can't, I'm not going to. And let's face it, 420 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: so many people are also there to be ready to 421 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: tell you what you can't do. Yeah, So that's why 422 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: you have to believe in yourself that you know how to, 423 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: because you can very much get influenced from the outside world. 424 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: Like one of the very early days, I don't know 425 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: if you know this story, actually one of the very 426 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: early days of QUEST, we had like Justin Bieber's cousin 427 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: was like contacted Quest and so they're like, oh my god, Lisa, 428 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: we can get Quest a bus to Justin Bieber. But 429 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,680 Speaker 1: here's the catch. He's in the Bye and you've only 430 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: got like twenty forty eight hours to get it to him. 431 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 1: And everyone's like, but it's impossible. Everyone said it's impossible. 432 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: I called up my UPS guy. They're like, it's impossible. 433 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: It's a food product, it's the Bye, it's important, it's 434 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 1: like all this like logistics. And in that moment, I 435 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 1: was like, no one's going to fight for your dream 436 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 1: more than you. So of course my request to my 437 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: even the UPS person, I'm making his life harder. So 438 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: when he sees the hurdle or he's like, is impossible, 439 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: but no one will fight for your dream more than 440 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: you will. So I didn't take impossible as an option. 441 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,120 Speaker 1: I didn't know what I was doing. I figured it out, 442 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: and so I literally said, Okay, if you're the person 443 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 1: that figures it out, what would this look like. Don't 444 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: take no for an answer. Ask questions, Ask boat loads 445 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: of questions. Instead of feeling badly about myself for not knowing, 446 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: just keep asking so I would get on. I'm just oh, okay, 447 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: you can't help it. Can I speak your manager? Please? 448 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: Manager comes up. It's impossible. Can you explain to me why? Well, 449 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: because of the customs, all right, what if? What if 450 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: I overpaid customs? Well, but what about this slip? Well, okay, 451 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: I'll just fill out the slip in advance and I'll 452 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: be up at three in the morning in case it 453 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: gets out, I'll be on call. Like every time there's 454 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: a problem, do you have a way to think around it? 455 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,359 Speaker 1: And it's not that I knew what I was doing. 456 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: That's the key. Is that I just had the mentality 457 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: that no one's going to fight for my dream more 458 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: than me, and I'm not going to take no as 459 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: an answer. And because of those things, I ended up 460 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: figuring it out, and I end up getting bars to 461 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: JB in time. I don't know if he actually ever received. 462 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: That's the heart baking thing. It was like I got 463 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: confirmation they arrived at his hotel. And to me though, 464 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: that was the thing I held onto that no one 465 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 1: thought it was possible. All the experts thought it was impossible. 466 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: I didn't know what I was doing, but I went 467 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 1: in there as the learner and said, Lisa, you're going 468 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: to figure it out. I love that story. Do you 469 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: know why? Because it's so practical, Like it's so tangible. 470 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: It's not like this ethereal dream that you made come true. 471 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: It's literally like, we need to get these bars from 472 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: this country to this country. And you can see all 473 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: the steps it takes, and you can see every moment 474 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: where you could have just gone, can't be bothered now, 475 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: And that's literally the only thing. And actually whether he 476 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,719 Speaker 1: got it or not is irrelevant to the fact that 477 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: you were able to figure it out. Yes, And it 478 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: shows that now you can apply that to anything big 479 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 1: or small, And now you are applying it to movies 480 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: and comic books and you know, whatever else it may be. 481 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: But it started off by just trying to get a 482 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: bar from one country to another. I honestly hope that 483 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: everyone's listening and watching. The reason why I love Lisa's 484 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,639 Speaker 1: examples is because they're just so tangible, they're so real, 485 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 1: and I think sometimes it's like, maybe you're listening right 486 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: now and you have a company you want to start, 487 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: or you have a podcast you want to launch, r 488 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: you have a YouTube channel, that's in your head, and 489 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,360 Speaker 1: it really is as simple today as going on Google, 490 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: typing it in and trying it. And I think the 491 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: biggest mistake that Lisa, I want to hear your take 492 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: on this is I think we often try things too slow, 493 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: and therefore the results are more painful to accept. I'll 494 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: give you an example of what I mean. If I'm 495 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 1: interested by something, Let's take something like what you just did. 496 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 1: If you took three months to type in what's a palette, 497 00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: then three months later you'll figure out how much they cost, 498 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 1: and then three months later maybe the prices go up, 499 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: and now in twelve months you're going, oh, well, I 500 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 1: guess that wasn't useful. Whereas if you go back that 501 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: day like you did, and then you went to research 502 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: how much they cost, and then you research the budget 503 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,960 Speaker 1: and everything else that you did, you learn it so 504 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: fast and now you can take action so often. What 505 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: I think is that we need to experiment more often, 506 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: as opposed to like trying to make something happen over 507 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 1: a year. If you try and do it in an hour, 508 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 1: you'll actually more likely to learn and grow rather than saying, Okay, 509 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 1: I'm going to spend ten minutes on this every week. 510 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: If you can spend an hour on it this weekend, 511 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: you probably make a bit more growth and you'll feel 512 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: more momentum. I don't know what your thoughts about one 513 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 1: thousand percent. I think the reason why people don't know 514 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 1: is they fear not being perfect. Yeah, so they're like, well, 515 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 1: let me just figure it, like, let me take the 516 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: stepping stimes, let me process it, let me and I 517 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 1: actually get it that fear really can stop so many 518 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: of us. But that's why I have the identity of 519 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: being the learner, of being the person actually, you know what, 520 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: I don't know this today and I don't judge myself 521 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 1: for it, but I can learn. And it's that if like, 522 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,479 Speaker 1: what is that goal? How do you keep moving forward? 523 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: And then the fear part, that voice in the head 524 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: that I took I very much talk about, is telling me, well, Lisa, 525 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: you don't know what you're doing. Well, Lisa, you know, 526 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 1: who do you think you are? Like, you don't have 527 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: any you know, expertise in this area. But if I'm 528 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: then bypass it by being like, oh no, you don't 529 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: know anything, so hey, you should learn, you know, It's 530 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 1: like bypass that voice to then get you to act, 531 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 1: and then in that action you then feel the competence 532 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: that then builds the confidence to then keep going. But 533 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: it is that starting point that is very fearful and 534 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: so recently in fact, I don't know how you felt 535 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: in like launching a book and stuff like that. And 536 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 1: we're very creative, so as part of the creative I 537 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 1: get very hypo microscopic on everything. It's like that's not 538 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 1: good enough, No, that's not right. And I realized I 539 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: was actually holding myself back because to your point, like, 540 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 1: I wasn't just like learning from it. I wasn't just 541 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: putting things out. And so I ended up sitting down 542 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 1: and saying, Okay, right now, this fear of like trying 543 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: to be perfect is actually holding your back. I don't 544 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: judge myself for it, but I say, how do I 545 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: overcome this feeling? Because I can't force myself not to 546 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 1: feel it, So I have to come up with a plan, 547 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: a tactic to overcome the way that I'm handling it. 548 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 1: So I sat there and I was like, oh, I'm 549 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: looking for perfection. Does perfection help impact people with this book? No? Okay, great, 550 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: So how do I overcome this? I need to be 551 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 1: deliberate not perfect. Hey, that's actually really strong. That really 552 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: hit me. Be deliberate. How do I remind myself that 553 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 1: in moments? Because we all have habits, So the habit 554 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: of me right now is to be perfect. So how 555 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:46,640 Speaker 1: do I overcome this habit of being perfect? Okay, I'm 556 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: going to put in my phone in something I call 557 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: in my own in the book, it's like phone roulette. 558 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: So it's actually you've got this roulette, but you put 559 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: a message in your phone, you close your eyes and 560 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: you spin the time, and you close your eye and 561 00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: you don't know what time you've said it. And the 562 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: whole point for this is to keep reminding yourself in 563 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 1: random moments of the message. You're trying to become a 564 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: habit in your mind. So I put in be deliberate, 565 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: not perfect, and I did the roulette, and I did 566 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: it for about three weeks. And after that I don't 567 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: need anyone Now. Every time something comes to me, I 568 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 1: just go, okay, I want to be deliberate, not perfect. Okay, 569 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: yea great, this is good to go. Wow. So wait, 570 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: you choose the message yeah, and then you put at 571 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: random time yeah, and then your phone will buzz at 572 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:29,919 Speaker 1: that time and remind you of that message that you 573 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 1: put in. Yeah, and I don't know what's so cool, 574 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,719 Speaker 1: and I don't know when it's going to go off. Yeah, 575 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: so look, sometimes it goes off at the worst time, 576 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: when you're in an interview dation. Right. But I did 577 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 1: this once for cool. Yeah. I did it once as 578 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: a name to experiment because I am always going I 579 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: don't judge myself for how I feel, but I don't 580 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: accept that as an excuse. Yeah, so, okay, this is real. 581 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: Don't feel badly, but what are you going to do 582 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 1: to overcome it? So that was one of those things 583 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: I was actually really scared for Ted talk. This is 584 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: actually how it has started. I was so scared about 585 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 1: getting in fun on stage, and I had all these 586 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: like tactics, Okay, I'm going to have a blueprint, how 587 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 1: do I think about it? How do I turn up? 588 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,719 Speaker 1: What's my wonder woman cuffs? Like all these things of 589 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 1: how am I going to get on stage in the 590 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: first place? And part of that ritual leading up to 591 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 1: it was I did a little you got this, and 592 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: I did a little muscle emoji and I closed my 593 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: eyes and I spun it. Now, sometimes it happened in 594 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: like when I was peeing, you know, like it's like 595 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: not a great time, but it really really worked, Like 596 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 1: it hit me so hard. And in moments when I 597 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: was practicing for my speech, I didn't realize that it 598 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 1: went off. So now here I am practicing, I'm reading over, 599 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: I'm getting in my own head, I'm getting tense. I'm like, 600 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: oh my god, can I do really do this? The 601 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: alarm happened to go off at that time. So now 602 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,959 Speaker 1: I'm like, ah, yeah, I do get this, Lisa. So 603 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: now I go back and it becomes this little reminder 604 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: your own cheerleader. Wow, I love that idea. That's such 605 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: a cool that's absolutely brilliant. And also that statement be deliberate, 606 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: not perfect. Yeah, I think it's such a great mantra. 607 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 1: And I'm going to be honest here as well. So 608 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 1: I really dislike the cover of my book, my first 609 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: book that I did. I really dislike it. And I 610 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: was forced into having to pick and decide because of time. 611 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: And so I when I was writing my first book, 612 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: I was so absorbed in writing it. I didn't really 613 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: have time to think about the cover. We got to 614 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: finish writing it, and then I was told I need 615 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: a cover and testimonials within the next two weeks. And 616 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 1: I didn't know anyone who designed book covers at the time, 617 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: and so I was scrambling to do that, and I 618 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: was trying to get the testimonials from people, and asking 619 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: for testimonials, as you know, is a tough thing to do. 620 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: And she's like, Okay, well, now I've got two weeks 621 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: to ask someone for something. So I'm doing this, and 622 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, then they're like, oh no, no no, 623 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: now we've got to just go with this cover and 624 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: we're going to design it. And I really don't like it. Now, 625 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: you know, it didn't impact the book in the sense 626 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: of it's been wonderful to see the book out there. 627 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: And I hope people can sense my intention. I think 628 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: that's what I always focused on as my intention is 629 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: I just want to serve through this book, and people 630 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: can feel that. But I give myself the grace in space. 631 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: That was my first book. I didn't know the process. 632 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: I didn't understand this time. I've handed in my first 633 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: manuscript and I'm working on the yeah, and it's like 634 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: it's okay, And that's like, you know, and the reason 635 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: why I'm sharing that is people may look at my 636 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: first book and of course it's sold really well, it's 637 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: done really well, whatever, and it's like and people may 638 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: just be like, oh, Jay, you just nailed it, and 639 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: I'm like, but even I don't feel I nailed it, 640 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: like I didn't because there was a part of it 641 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: that I would have wanted to improve. Yeah, you've got 642 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: an epic thank this. Look at this radical confidence round covered. 643 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: It's so beautiful, it's amazing. And I think that what 644 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: we have to realize is that as creators, will always 645 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: be critical of our own work, even when no one 646 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: notices it. And so I wanted everyone to hear that 647 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 1: that you're doing that, I'm doing that, We're all doing that. 648 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: So if your first episode of your podcast isn't great, 649 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: you've got a second one. If the first video on 650 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: your YouTube channel is not great, there's another one. Like 651 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: there's always another tape. Yeah, And I love the critical 652 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: part of it because what you're doing is, yeah, you're 653 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: being critical about yourself, but you're not letting it stop. 654 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: You move forward. And that's the key. It's like, I 655 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: don't always just go yeah, Lisa, you've got this, Like no, no, 656 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: I definitely assess like I am critical of myself. I 657 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: do like to reassess, but I'm at the stage at 658 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,600 Speaker 1: least in my growth that I don't let that stop me. 659 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: And in the past it would. In the past, I 660 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,240 Speaker 1: would look at something that I've done and I would 661 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: be so critical of it that I would beat myself 662 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: up so much that it stopped me from moving forward. Yes, yes, 663 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 1: I think that's a really good clarification as well. And 664 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: I think deliberate not perfect is such a brilliant montry, 665 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: So I love that, all right, going on, I love 666 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: this one. Validation is for parking. I was like, I 667 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: love parking validation, but yes, validation is for parking. The 668 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: one that I love about this one is I can 669 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: validate myself. Yeah, I think that's been such a big 670 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: lesson for me. What is something you think you constantly 671 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: wanted other people to validate you for? What is something 672 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: that you've always seeked external validation? Forward? That took the 673 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: longest journey. Oh, that took the longest journey. That's interesting. 674 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: I think that there's still a part of me that 675 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 1: kind of I think that maybe, and maybe I'm wrong, 676 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: but this seems like there's a part of everyone that 677 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: still wants to be validated, and it's just instinctual. So 678 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: going back to I don't judge myself for it, but 679 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: I know it's unhealthy. So in fact, here's a perfect example. 680 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 1: It's not really answering your question, but it kind of 681 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: is with the book I was. Originally when someone offered 682 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: me the book deal, the very first words out of 683 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: my mouth were who would buy a book from me? 684 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: So there's the insecurity. So I'm like, Lisa, Ah, that 685 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 1: fourteen year old girl is still inside do it's okay? 686 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: You know, like she still does exist. That's okay, But 687 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: I'm not going to let her hold me back. So 688 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: I start writing the book. Now, in writing the book, 689 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: I start to go, oh, I really want a New 690 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: York Times number one, right, like we've all got so many, 691 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: like your book is amazing and everyone, and so it's like, oh, 692 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: I've got a goal. I'm still got a good I 693 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: think you know, I'm a busy entrepreneur. So I set 694 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 1: my goal. I set where I'm trying to go, and 695 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: I moved deliberately towards that. Now here's the thing, what 696 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 1: if I don't reach it does mean not getting there? 697 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: Now mean that the book's no good. And I realize 698 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 1: the danger of looking for external validation for the work 699 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 1: that you do and the way that you show up. 700 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 1: And now the only thing that I can do is 701 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,479 Speaker 1: do the foundation works so that when that happens, the 702 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: instinctual part of Lisa doesn't come out. And so what 703 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: I said is what's my north star? Why did I 704 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 1: actually write this book? Yes? I have the goals, but 705 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: I don't want the goal without you're actually creating impacts. 706 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 1: So let's say I want New York Times, right, but 707 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: does it actually create impact? That's my north star. That's 708 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: the big, big thing that I'm going towards. So how 709 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: are people going to respond to it? Okay, yes, of 710 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:35,479 Speaker 1: course I want it to create impact. But what if 711 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: it actually doesn't impact anyone? Jay? What if everyone hates it? 712 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: That's a big possibility. When I was writing it, I 713 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,479 Speaker 1: didn't know. And so what am I going to do 714 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: to make sure that I still feel validated and that 715 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: I still feel my worth? And so I said, what 716 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: am I going to do? Now? Number One? Do you 717 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: give it your all? Because and here's the thing. When 718 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: I say that, you know everyone at home, you know 719 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 1: if you've given it all, you can tell other people 720 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: you have, but you really know? So am I going 721 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: to give him my all? Yes? Or no? Yes? Great, 722 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: that's going to be a metric I'm going to go by. 723 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: If I gave it my all, I've got nothing else 724 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 1: to give. Am I going to learn from this experience 725 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: if it does badly? Yes? Did I have beautiful intentions? Yes? 726 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,959 Speaker 1: Am I going to really if it fails, not beat 727 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: yourself up? But are you absolutely going to take a 728 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,919 Speaker 1: hard look and identify all the things that you think 729 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: that you failed in? Yes? Great, Now I can move forward, 730 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 1: move forward, And if it doesn't do well, I've got 731 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: those bullet points that I'm going to go back to 732 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 1: and say, I had every intention to help women that 733 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: felt like I did. I had that north star, I 734 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: knew what I was trying to do. I gave it 735 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: my all, and so if now no one likes it, 736 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: I'm not going to feel badly about myself because I 737 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: showed up. And that's the thing, Jack. No one can 738 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: affect whether you show up or not. Get about the 739 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: failure and successes. No one can affect whether whoever's listening 740 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 1: at home if you showed up or not. The Only 741 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,879 Speaker 1: person that can affect that is. I love that, and 742 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: that's actually what needs to happen before we start any journey. 743 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 1: And I think a lot of society has made us 744 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: focus on the goal. So it's like, what's your goal, 745 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,480 Speaker 1: where do you want to be? What's the output, what's 746 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 1: the result? And what you've just described is the input. 747 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: It's what you're bringing, it's what you're focused on. And 748 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,879 Speaker 1: I think that's one of the biggest mistakes of goal 749 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 1: setting is that goals are just made up targets. They're 750 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: just made up targets. They're just random things, and it's 751 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 1: like they're nice, they're cool, but they don't make you happy. Because, 752 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: by the way, even the people that reach their goals 753 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: are not happy because it's never satisfying. It's like, Okay, 754 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,879 Speaker 1: we got to this goal, but now we didn't stay there, 755 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: or we got to that goal, but we didn't get 756 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 1: the next time or this time. We hit that goal constantly, 757 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:54,160 Speaker 1: but I'm still dissatisfied because I became lonely in the process, right, 758 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,399 Speaker 1: So there's always something else around that goal. So it's 759 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 1: not only the people that don't make their goals that 760 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: are not happy, it's also the people that make their 761 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: goals that are not happy because it's not about the goal, yeah, exactly, 762 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: And the result is never guaranteed either. So it's like, 763 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:09,919 Speaker 1: what are you going to do? Work hard for something, 764 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,320 Speaker 1: pour your heart into it, and only feel good about 765 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 1: yourself whether it succeeds or not. It's just not sustainable. Yeah. 766 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: And so to me, that's what I look at. What 767 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 1: is sustainable for me to keep showing up for the 768 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: rest of my life? Yeah, And that's like when I 769 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: think about, oh, if I'm looking at the results, it's 770 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 1: not sustainable in the year, in two years when I 771 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 1: crash and burn, because look, when you try anything new, 772 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 1: the chances are you're going to fail at it at 773 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: some point, yea. And so if I'm failing, how do 774 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: I keep getting back up? It's that precise thing. Yeah, 775 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 1: I love that principle. I think that's just so huge 776 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: because I just think we as a society constantly forced 777 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,400 Speaker 1: people to set these big dreams, goals and targets that 778 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: are arbitrary to our actual joy and happiness, Like they 779 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 1: don't actually connect to feeling good, yeah, even if you 780 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: make it right. And so I think that's the biggest one. 781 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 1: All Right, I want to go through a few more 782 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 1: of these because there's so many good ones. I'm skipping 783 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 1: a few chapters because I want you to get the 784 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: book and read it. But there's a few things that 785 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:09,879 Speaker 1: I want to talk about. Okay, this one's a big one. 786 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 1: This is chapter seven, which is called Toughen the f 787 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: Up butter Cup, and it says I can stop saying 788 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yeah, this is huge, like the amount of 789 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: people that constantly feel that they have to stop saying sorry. 790 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: What are some of the things that you hear a 791 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: lot in this space of things that people apologize a 792 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:31,479 Speaker 1: lot for? So I also want to put a little 793 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 1: asterisk to that because in the book, I actually I 794 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 1: think it's like the first line is guys stop apologizing, 795 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: and yet guys always apologize, because that's the thing. A 796 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 1: lot of what I say like feels like almost sometimes contradictory. 797 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: But look, I think that the message of just stop 798 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: apologizing isn't actually accurate. Yeah, because if it's like, if 799 00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 1: you're up your set your friend, and you're the one 800 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,000 Speaker 1: that is the person in the foot, you should apologize, 801 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 1: like you know, I like, if I've said something that 802 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,720 Speaker 1: really that has up set Tom, and it's like, Okay, 803 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 1: I didn't mean to upsay him. Of course you should apologize. 804 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: So I never want people to think that apology is 805 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,720 Speaker 1: a bad thing. The problem is we apologize so much 806 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 1: that what is doing is it's telling you that your 807 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: opinion isn't valid. So, like I think the example I 808 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,879 Speaker 1: given the book is like, let's say, for instance, I 809 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: choose you know me and very much like your self 810 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 1: care is very important. I must take care of myself 811 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 1: first before I show up for anyone else. And with 812 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: how much we work, I burnout, and so I need 813 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:30,240 Speaker 1: to make sure that I don't go to that burnout. 814 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: So sometimes I get invited to a lot of amazing places, 815 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 1: and I know in that moment it's I have to 816 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 1: actually choose self care. Now. If I'm apologizing for putting 817 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: myself first subconsciously over time, what is that doing. It 818 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 1: may not seem like it in the moment. I just 819 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 1: think when you keep having that repetition in your head, 820 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: that voice, that mindset that you're always apologizing for putting 821 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: yourself first, it becomes detrimental to you. And so for me, 822 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: I was like, I'm no longer going to apologize for 823 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 1: putting my self care first. I'm always going to be 824 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: very respectful. It's never like, well, you know, I f you, 825 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: But it absolutely is. How you use language makes a difference. 826 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,239 Speaker 1: The language you use, And that's really the big key 827 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 1: thing in all of this. If you say the word sorry, 828 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,719 Speaker 1: is that actually authentic to you? Or are you dismissing 829 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,799 Speaker 1: something that's actually very important to you, like self care. 830 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 1: So if someone invites me out, I won't actually if 831 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: and I'm doing self care and said, I actually won't 832 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: say I'm sorry, I'll say, oh my god, I really 833 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 1: hope you have an amazing time. You know, let me 834 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: know how it is. But right now, you know I'm 835 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 1: unable to attend very politely. But I just don't use 836 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: the word sorry. Yeah. No, I think that's huge because 837 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,280 Speaker 1: what you said is over time, what we're basically saying 838 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: is we don't think we deserve that, yes, or that 839 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 1: what we're doing is wrong. Yes, right, that's what you're saying. 840 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 1: If you're saying sorry like you define the word, you're 841 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:53,280 Speaker 1: like saying I'm wrong. That's why I'm sorry. I'm wrong 842 00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: in not wanting to come out with you. But you're 843 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: not wrong. Yeah, you just want to do something that's 844 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: right for you. Yeah, and it just then reinforces, right, 845 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: because like like repetition creates habit, and I'm so aware 846 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 1: of that of how the words I use affect how 847 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 1: I show up. So like, if you can I share 848 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,720 Speaker 1: a story, yeah, I'd love to you. Am I always 849 00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: love hearing you said, yeah, go for it. There was 850 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 1: this one time on one vacation and I'm standing in 851 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,280 Speaker 1: line and I don't make you. I get very chatty 852 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: in line on vacation. I would so this is woman behind. 853 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,000 Speaker 1: When we start chatting, She's like, oh, what do you do? 854 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: So I start telling all the things you know that 855 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:32,800 Speaker 1: you know quest and impact theory and women have impact. 856 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: And eventually I was like, okay, I'm talking a lot. 857 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 1: It's like, oh, what are you doing? She goes, Oh, 858 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: I'm just a mum, just a mom. Just I was, 859 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: and I was like, well, what do you mean. She goes, oh, 860 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,399 Speaker 1: we'll have three kids at homeschool, but I'm just a mum. 861 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: She was so downplaying her achievements by using the word 862 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: just now. It may not seem like a big deal, 863 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 1: but imagine she says that to herself over and over again. 864 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: She's really invalidating how much she's bringing to the table. 865 00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:01,759 Speaker 1: And so in that moment, I was going to help 866 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 1: myself check. I was like, I'm so sorry, but you 867 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 1: just said just I was like, you're doing this incredible. 868 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 1: I was like, you're bringing up the next generation and 869 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 1: you're doing a three children homeschooling. I was like, so, 870 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: I was like, that isn't a Just as soon as 871 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: I said that, her demina changed. She starts glowing, talking 872 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 1: about all the classes, all these new tests that she 873 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,480 Speaker 1: was trying on her kids to see what would work 874 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: and what didn't. In just in removing the word just 875 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,839 Speaker 1: changed how she saw herself. And that was just one 876 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: word in one moment. Now, think about the words we 877 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:38,320 Speaker 1: use in our own head over and over and over again. Yeah. 878 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: And I think that's the point that in that moment, 879 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 1: you'd only heard her say at once yes, but she's 880 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: heard herself say it every day, where whenever she meets 881 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:55,719 Speaker 1: someone who is externally doing more right, I've got more 882 00:41:56,160 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 1: externally quote unquote more quote unquote, because it's her person option, 883 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 1: she is then looking at herself as less than every 884 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: single time, because society has made some things feel like 885 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,360 Speaker 1: more and some things feel like less. But in that moment, 886 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: you've reminded her that actually what she's doing is unique, 887 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: it's beautiful, it's wonderful. And I think that's what I 888 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: love about what you're saying about language, because I do 889 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: think it's so easy because we've created this hierarchy of 890 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,440 Speaker 1: first and second. You think about it, someone might have 891 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: just broken the world record and come second, but someone 892 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: broke the overall world record and came first. Yeah. Right, 893 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,960 Speaker 1: you both may have beaten the most latest world record, 894 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 1: but except you're not looking at it. You're looking at going, 895 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:45,320 Speaker 1: I came second, but you also just did something amazing. 896 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 1: And even in that example, whereas yeah, I think it's 897 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 1: I think language is really interesting, and I think the 898 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 1: way we talk to ourselves is really interesting. And I 899 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: do believe that it's always going to be a balance 900 00:42:56,719 --> 00:43:00,839 Speaker 1: of you don't want to lie to yourself. Of either way, 901 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,359 Speaker 1: I think that's the problem. Right, Both of them are lies. 902 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 1: Saying to yourself I'm the best in the world and 903 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 1: I'm better than everyone, that's a lie, and saying I'm 904 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: the worst I'm just a mum, that's also a lie. 905 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: Neither of those are actually true. Yeah, that's so true, 906 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 1: And we are so conditioned ourselves into thinking a certain 907 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 1: way that it becomes like the belief system that maybe 908 00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:24,240 Speaker 1: we don't even question because we don't even realize it's there. 909 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: And so that's what I just love about everything we're 910 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 1: talking about. I mean, you know, is it Carol Dweck. 911 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,360 Speaker 1: I think it was her that said, just add the 912 00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:34,440 Speaker 1: word yet onto a centers. I can't do X, Y 913 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: and Z yet it's one word, three letters, and yet 914 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:41,799 Speaker 1: it changes everything of how we perceive that thing. If 915 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,959 Speaker 1: you say I can't play the piano or I can't 916 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:48,960 Speaker 1: play the piano yet not in day, Yeah, it changes everything. Everything. 917 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 1: Language changes everything. I do recommend that everyone sits down 918 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 1: and defines the words they use the most in their 919 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 1: life because and chances are, you and your partner, you 920 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 1: and your kids and your parents all have different definitions. 921 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 1: And so you've got to be really careful because you 922 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: may have defined your words, you've got to make sure 923 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: that their words are aligned or that they have their 924 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: own definition that you're aware of. Yeah, because otherwise, when 925 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 1: they say, well, I don't think you've done something significant, 926 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,560 Speaker 1: you have to know what you mean by significant others 927 00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: you're going to take that personally. So I rarely take 928 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: people's words personally because I know their definition is not 929 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 1: the same as mine. Oh my god, yeah, Tom and I, 930 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 1: in our marriage we have our own little like Belu 931 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: dictionary because for that exact reason, Because if I say 932 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 1: to him, hey, babe, this is really important to me. 933 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 1: I say the word important three times in a year, 934 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: so you better believe I want his all attention. I 935 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,839 Speaker 1: want him to drop everything. Now. If we haven't had 936 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,880 Speaker 1: that discussion and he uses the important four times in 937 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 1: the day, he's like, okay, cool, And now I feel 938 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 1: completely dismissed because I only use it three times. So 939 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 1: there's a weight that I bring to that word, but 940 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: he doesn't. Now does that mean that he's wrong and 941 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,319 Speaker 1: I'm right? No, it just means to your point that 942 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: we have different definitions of what that words specifically meet. So, like, 943 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: the one of the worst words that I think it 944 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: does detriment to so many people, especially women, is the 945 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,359 Speaker 1: word should. That is the word that literally it's like 946 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 1: handcuffs so many of us. I should do this. I 947 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 1: should be a good wife. I should be a good 948 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: Greek wife. I should take care of my husband. I 949 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 1: should put his you know, that was what I was taught. 950 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:20,840 Speaker 1: I should have kids, Like it didn't even dawn on 951 00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 1: me that I could ask why do I want kids? 952 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: Because I just use the word in my head over 953 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: and over again. So powerful, And you can make so 954 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,919 Speaker 1: many big decisions in life with bad language. Yeah, and 955 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 1: it's scary actually where it can go. And if you're 956 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: someone who feels you have done that for a long time. 957 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 1: You can change words, that's the best thing about it. 958 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 1: You can change your definitions, you can change your words, 959 00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: all right. One more that I want to take that 960 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: I love, because this one really really stood out to me, 961 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 1: is I can be too sensitive. I think that's one 962 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 1: that gives a lot of permission because you're a very 963 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:02,160 Speaker 1: practical person. I watch your Instagram stories and you're always 964 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:05,280 Speaker 1: someone who shares what you're feeling. But then you share 965 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 1: what you do about it. Yeah, and so I'll see 966 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 1: you go. I woke up, I didn't want to work 967 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 1: out today, but here I am. Or like you know, 968 00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:14,200 Speaker 1: I woke up, my gut wasn't great today, but then 969 00:46:14,239 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: this is what we did. Like, you're very open about 970 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: the feeling and being sensitive, but then moving how did 971 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: you get good at closing the gap between allowing yourself 972 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: to feel and being sensitive to actually taking action. I 973 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 1: think because I didn't do I didn't move forward. I 974 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 1: literally for eight years, you know, my life was what 975 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 1: I feel like was in the pug like that. I 976 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: can't even imagine you like that because I've never we 977 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,279 Speaker 1: never knew each other. That yeah, we're same. I feel 978 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:41,920 Speaker 1: the same about you when I hear about your your 979 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 1: crazy world boys stories, when you're like you like it 980 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 1: just seems strange, but that just actually is great, right 981 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 1: to show that we really cannibol, we really can change 982 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 1: by making these different choices in our lives. And so 983 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:56,800 Speaker 1: for eight years I was making the same choices to 984 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 1: stay stuck, and so I didn't have that how do 985 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 1: I incrementally move towards my goal? What am I doing today? 986 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 1: And so now I've just because of that, I just say, 987 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 1: the way that I feel right now, does it serve 988 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:12,960 Speaker 1: the thing that I'm trying to do? And so sometimes 989 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: like being sensitive can be beautiful, right. It means that 990 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 1: we're in touch with our emotions and that we can 991 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: actually feel things. And especially when you're creative, you want 992 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 1: that you need to like go with your heart and 993 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:27,560 Speaker 1: your emotions. But sometimes being too sensitive can hold you back. Yeah, 994 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: and I don't beat myself up over it, but I 995 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 1: don't think being too sensitive all the time serves you. 996 00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 1: And part of the messaging out there is like, no, 997 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,319 Speaker 1: you should be always sensitive, and I just go, look, 998 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 1: sometimes it actually doesn't serve what you're trying to do. 999 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that you should ignore it. That doesn't 1000 00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 1: mean that you should beat yourself up over feeling it. 1001 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:49,839 Speaker 1: But if I say, Okay, the way I'm feeling right 1002 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:53,320 Speaker 1: now doesn't actually help me move forward towards impact in 1003 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,719 Speaker 1: that fourteen year old girl, Okay, so what am I 1004 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:57,719 Speaker 1: going to do? I'm going to feel the feels right. 1005 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,280 Speaker 1: I give myself the grace and the doll to go. Okay, Lisa, 1006 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: yes you're here, that's okay. It's like you know that friend, 1007 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,040 Speaker 1: it's all right. But does this actually help you help 1008 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 1: that fourteen year old girl that feels insecure? Does that 1009 00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:11,879 Speaker 1: help that other woman that you're trying to help? If 1010 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 1: the answer is, know what am I going to do 1011 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 1: about it? Because sitting there stuck won't get me there again, 1012 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 1: I've been there eight years, not moving forward. I know 1013 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 1: what that feels like, I know where that gets me. 1014 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:26,799 Speaker 1: It's important for me to acknowledge the truth that we 1015 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 1: can be sensitive and to just say it's okay all 1016 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: the time won't actually help. And so that's where it's 1017 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:37,880 Speaker 1: like the duality of everything I always talk about becomes 1018 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 1: like these dualities, it's like embracing it and then not 1019 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 1: accepting it. It's like, I am embrace who I am today, 1020 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 1: and yeah, I don't accept who I am today. I 1021 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 1: know where I'm trying. I want to get better every day. 1022 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,320 Speaker 1: I want to improve. So how do you do both 1023 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,759 Speaker 1: without you lacking the enthusiasm to keep moving forward? And 1024 00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: it always is giving myself the grace that, yes, I 1025 00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 1: feel like that, I'm not going to dismiss that part 1026 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: of me that is what makes me me, and yet 1027 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:05,319 Speaker 1: I'm not going to let hold me back from the 1028 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 1: life I want. I love that. I think you've perfectly 1029 00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:12,759 Speaker 1: summed up how a healthy mindset can be where it's 1030 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 1: not either raw, it's and right, it's both. And I 1031 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 1: think everyone's always like, well, should you be really vulnerable 1032 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:23,200 Speaker 1: or should you be really like action oriented? And be both? Yeah, 1033 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,880 Speaker 1: they'll be vulnerable and then take action like should I 1034 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 1: be really sensitive and compassionate or should I be really 1035 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 1: brave and courageous. It's like be both. It's like should 1036 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:36,319 Speaker 1: I be affectionate or assertive? It's like be affectionately, assi 1037 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 1: be both? Like you don't, And I think we've just 1038 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,080 Speaker 1: been brought to believe that everything's either raw. And what 1039 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 1: you've just said is no, I can be both. I 1040 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: can embrace myself and I don't have to accept where 1041 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 1: I'm at. Can I make you think? So? Also? Is 1042 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: your sensitivity actually warranted? Now? What I mean by that 1043 00:49:57,120 --> 00:49:59,879 Speaker 1: is I still accept it, so I never dismiss it. 1044 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 1: But I don't know if he's always warranted. Have you 1045 00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:06,799 Speaker 1: ever been hungry? Yeah? So literally, just by not eating 1046 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 1: you get mad. To think about sensitivity, it's the same thing. 1047 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 1: Maybe you're really tired that day, maybe you haven't eaten. 1048 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 1: For me, the biggest realization with this whole topic was 1049 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 1: middle of my gut issues. I was in absolute pain. 1050 00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: I wasn't eating much, like I could barely eat, so 1051 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:26,280 Speaker 1: I was extremely malnutrition, like I was twenty pounds lighter. 1052 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 1: And so now I'm in this business meeting. We're at quest. 1053 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in front of Tom and there's like maybe 1054 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: ten other people and me and him start debating something. 1055 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 1: Now this is like, I've debated with him so many 1056 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 1: times up to this point, but because my guard was 1057 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 1: hurting me so much, because I couldn't eat and because 1058 00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 1: I was tired, he had said something and inside I 1059 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 1: wanted to burst into tears, and so I was like, 1060 00:50:46,560 --> 00:50:48,279 Speaker 1: you're not going to cry, Lisa, You're not going to cry. 1061 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: Meeting goes over and I go into his restroom and 1062 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,560 Speaker 1: I just stopped tearing up. And he walks in, thinking 1063 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 1: that I always had a bad stomach, and he sees 1064 00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,399 Speaker 1: me in tears the first time I'm crying at work 1065 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:01,000 Speaker 1: quest so he's really shocked. He's like, hey, what's wrong. 1066 00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,440 Speaker 1: And I was like, you don't mean to me, and 1067 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 1: he's like, what is happening right now? I've never said that, 1068 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:10,799 Speaker 1: especially at work, And he's like, Babe, I love you. 1069 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 1: Could this possibly be because of your health? And of 1070 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:15,879 Speaker 1: course I was sensitive, so I was like, don't you 1071 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: dismiss my feelings, you know, And he's like, I'm not 1072 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,399 Speaker 1: trying to dismiss your feelings, but let's just take things 1073 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: right now for how they are. You've never cried at work, 1074 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 1: you've never made it personal, never, but even by saying 1075 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:32,319 Speaker 1: you're mean to me, it's a personal thing. How many 1076 00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:35,239 Speaker 1: times have we debated at work, You've never had this 1077 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: emotional reaction and the facts are, Baby, you're in pain. 1078 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 1: So can we maybe just say that right now you 1079 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:47,279 Speaker 1: are being sensitive that you may not otherwise feel if 1080 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 1: your health was better. Yeah, and so in that moment, 1081 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: I was like, actually, you know what, sometimes your sevensitivity 1082 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,240 Speaker 1: comes from something else totally, but you take it personally. 1083 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 1: I mean, you're a spot on. I mean genuinely don't 1084 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 1: trust myself if I'm hungrier on time, right, Like, I 1085 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,880 Speaker 1: just don't make good decisions. I don't make decisions. I 1086 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: don't make choices. I will put something off if I'm 1087 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 1: hungry or I'm tired, I will say I'll think about 1088 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 1: it tomorrow. I just don't want to make that decision 1089 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:17,279 Speaker 1: because I know I'll make poor decisions, let alone with 1090 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 1: our feelings and how we treat people. And I can 1091 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,319 Speaker 1: remember that. Actually, when I was going through health things 1092 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 1: as well, I was a lot snappier, I was a 1093 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:29,719 Speaker 1: lot more irritable. You were a little too sensitive, Yeah, exactly, Yeah, 1094 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:33,400 Speaker 1: would rather I was way more agitated when I was struggling, 1095 00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:37,879 Speaker 1: because you're really what's happening is all your body's energy 1096 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: is trying to solve that issue, and so you have 1097 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 1: no energy, You don't have any capacity left for the 1098 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: part that you would usually have a little bit of 1099 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:50,839 Speaker 1: resilience to deal with something that's not comfortable exactly. And 1100 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 1: now everything that would have just been uncomfortable becomes personal. Yes, 1101 00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 1: And that's what's happening, right, because you've lost that capacity 1102 00:52:58,680 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 1: for discomfort. And I've realized that many times when I'm tired, 1103 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 1: or I'm hungry, or I'm going through something healthwise, I 1104 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:09,640 Speaker 1: lose my ability for discomfort when usually I'd be more 1105 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: than happy to be in discomfort or handle some austerity. 1106 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:15,839 Speaker 1: And the fact that you know that about yourself, though, 1107 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: allows you now to maneuver r It's not that you 1108 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,640 Speaker 1: dismiss that you're a bad person or that means something 1109 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:23,640 Speaker 1: about you. You just know, oh, okay, I'm not in 1110 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 1: my full capacity because I'm not. I don't have the 1111 00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 1: things that I need in order to be able to 1112 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 1: handle this and not take it personally. So that's where 1113 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 1: in the books, like it's so important for me to say, like, look, 1114 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 1: it's like, we don't know I'm sensitive, and you can't 1115 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 1: take that away from me. It's like, yes, but does 1116 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 1: it serve you and is it actually true or is 1117 00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,759 Speaker 1: it a reflection of other things in your life? I 1118 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 1: love that. I love that Lisa. That's such a powerful 1119 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:49,879 Speaker 1: and I want everyone who's nose listening and watching that 1120 00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: this book is full of. What I think Lisa does 1121 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 1: really well is take on these really complex ideas, simplify them, 1122 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:02,600 Speaker 1: but then still deal with the complexity. Right as you 1123 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:04,800 Speaker 1: can hear, we're going back and forth on this stuff 1124 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 1: because it's not either raw, it's not one or the other. 1125 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 1: It's not like here's the one answer that's going to 1126 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:14,200 Speaker 1: solve everything. It's actually like really textured and layered and messy, 1127 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:16,959 Speaker 1: and you've got to think about it at that level 1128 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 1: if you really want to solve it. Because just going 1129 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 1: out there and saying just be sensitive to share your feelings, like, 1130 00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:25,960 Speaker 1: that's only one half of the issue. Yeah, and then 1131 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 1: there's all these other layers in between. And so I 1132 00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,960 Speaker 1: think what Lisa does in Radical Confidence is each of 1133 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 1: these ten lessons they're going to simply tell you what 1134 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:38,839 Speaker 1: to do next, but they're also going to help you 1135 00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 1: think about how these ideas and as she said at 1136 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 1: the beginning, the muscle builds over time. Lisa, thank you 1137 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:49,040 Speaker 1: for writing this book. I again recommend everyone goes and 1138 00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 1: grabs a copy. You won't be disappointed. I genuinely have 1139 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: always loved Lisa's storytelling ability. You saw it today. She's 1140 00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:00,319 Speaker 1: able to take you back into a mo when in 1141 00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:03,399 Speaker 1: time I help you to reconnect with that fourteen year 1142 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 1: old girl that she was, to reconnect with the housewife 1143 00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 1: she was for eight years. You know, all of those 1144 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 1: elements in her life, which I think are identities that 1145 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 1: we can all relate to at different times in our 1146 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,719 Speaker 1: own life. At least. Any last words, anything that's on 1147 00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 1: your mind, anything that's in your heart that you really 1148 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 1: want to share, I want to give you the space 1149 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 1: to say it. No, just thank you so much for 1150 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,160 Speaker 1: having me. And you know, you've really been witnessed as 1151 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:27,720 Speaker 1: well to kind of me going from behind the scenes, 1152 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,799 Speaker 1: you know, in front, and Braddy's been doing the same, 1153 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,640 Speaker 1: Like it's so beautiful to see, like how much you 1154 00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:38,399 Speaker 1: support so many women in your in your life. So 1155 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: thank you for being a part of my own journey 1156 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 1: and being such a good friend. And you know, my 1157 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,279 Speaker 1: brother from another mother. You feel like home, dude, And 1158 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 1: I just cannot thank you enough for having me. I'm 1159 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:51,000 Speaker 1: so proud of you for putting this together because I 1160 00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:53,080 Speaker 1: just think there's so many people out there who are 1161 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:57,880 Speaker 1: struggling with these exact questions, these exact challenges, some of 1162 00:55:57,880 --> 00:55:59,960 Speaker 1: the ones that I didn't take for anyone who's listening, 1163 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 1: because I think you know you'll resonate with these ones. 1164 00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 1: Just people can relate to this. How can you develop 1165 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,960 Speaker 1: the mindset to I can set boundaries, I can choose 1166 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:14,719 Speaker 1: how I react, I can rescue myself, I can be motivated, 1167 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,960 Speaker 1: I can boost my confidence. I mean, these are all 1168 00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:21,799 Speaker 1: things that we all wish we could do. And I 1169 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 1: love how the book not only talks about the ideas 1170 00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 1: in the way you'd expect, but I think you take 1171 00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 1: this really counterintuitive approach. You're giving more depth on each one. 1172 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:32,839 Speaker 1: Thank you, because I think that was actually the thing 1173 00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:34,560 Speaker 1: that held me back is I would read all these 1174 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 1: one things about and I was like, but that isn't 1175 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 1: really true to me. How you show up and I 1176 00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 1: think humans are very you said earlier, humans are complex. 1177 00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:44,920 Speaker 1: Women were very complex, And so it's not buying there, 1178 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:47,080 Speaker 1: It's not one or the other. It's how do you 1179 00:56:47,120 --> 00:56:50,600 Speaker 1: deal with the beauty that makes up you. Yeah.

Maybe 1186 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna take a picture of a page in the 1187 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,359 Speaker 1: book that really resonated with you, that spoke to you, 1188 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 1: highlight it, share it with us online. I genuinely love 1189 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,880 Speaker 1: to see the feedback. And as you know, I do deeply, deeply, 1190 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 1: deeply support my friends who are authors on this podcast 1191 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 1: because writing a book is just not easy. When someone's 1192 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:27,920 Speaker 1: promoting it and there's lots of cool posters and TV 1193 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:29,960 Speaker 1: shows and billboards and all this kind of stuff, it 1194 00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:33,480 Speaker 1: can look very exciting and it is exciting, but the 1195 00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: journey of writing a book, getting it right, printing it, 1196 00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:40,080 Speaker 1: getting it sorted, and then taking out there it's a marathon. 1197 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 1: So if you ever see me share about books very enthusiastically, 1198 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:48,240 Speaker 1: it comes from just knowing that the author's really been 1199 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,640 Speaker 1: through it to get to that stage. So that's where 1200 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 1: my overenthusiasm kicks in, but thank you so much for 1201 00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 1: listening and watching. Everyone.
