1
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,160
Speaker 1: Beyond the Beauty is a production of I Heart Radio.

2
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: I'm your host Bobby Brown. This season of Beyond the

3
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: Beauty has been talking to founders of beauty companies about

4
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: how they started, why they started, what they're struggling with.

5
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: And I wanted to do this season based on these

6
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: amazing founders because I was about to launch my new

7
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: brand and not only do I give them advice, they

8
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: have given me a ton of advice and have been

9
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 1: mentors to me. So I love talking to people that

10
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,920
Speaker 1: have done it differently than I know, and I also

11
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 1: love sharing what I know. And it's been a really

12
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 1: interesting season talking to all these different you know, founders

13
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: of beauty brands, you know, some women, some guys, some

14
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: natural companies, some not and even you know pioneers who

15
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: have been in the space before me. And I love

16
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: mostly being able to understand how people do things, how

17
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: they do it differently. And I just think it's really

18
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: important for people out there that want to start their

19
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: own businesses just to hear other stories so a you

20
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: could relate or maybe you can get inspired. I'm someone

21
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: that likes to not only talk about being an entrepreneur,

22
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: but I really love to talk when it means to

23
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,199
Speaker 1: be a woman, what it means to be a mother,

24
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: what it means to be a friend, you know how

25
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 1: that defines you. And I'm constantly working on myself and

26
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: I'm really looking forward to the next season, which is

27
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,279
Speaker 1: why I want to talk to my next guest, a Julie,

28
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: who is a a friend who I actually met when

29
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: I was doing a speech and she was running the

30
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: event at Google. Was it a women's group? What was it? So?

31
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: I don't remember who, um who had formally extended the

32
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: invitation to you, but it was probably women at Google,

33
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: which I was on the steering committee of UM. So, yeah,

34
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: that was that was. It was a while ago, so

35
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: I did it, but I got, you know, much more

36
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: than I thought, which was this long friendship where you

37
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: came up to me afterwards and you were such a

38
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: cool like you were the you know, the head of

39
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: legal at Google, like you were just not some kids

40
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: sitting in the audience, and then and then we became friends.

41
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: And then when my son was looking for work after college,

42
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: you mentored him. Yeah, it was incredible. I mean, I'm

43
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: so grateful that I went to that talk and uh

44
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: and got to meet you there, and I had always

45
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: been a long adviirer of your brand and what you

46
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: had built, and you know, certainly as a girl of

47
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,079
Speaker 1: color at a certain time, UM, you were the O G.

48
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: I mean that was that was what introduced me to

49
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: make up, was your line and feeling like I could

50
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: feel beautiful at a time when everything else that I

51
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: was seeing in media, I was telling you that I

52
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: was not the standard of beauty and being able to

53
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: find things that worked for me was huge. And then

54
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: hearing your story, I was like, she is the coolest,

55
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: Like I just want to know her. And I was

56
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: really embarrassed that afterwards that I did that to you,

57
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: because I never just like bum rush somebody like that

58
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: that I just felt this immediate connection to you, to

59
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,119
Speaker 1: your story, how you talked about your family. We're both

60
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: from Chicago, so I think there were just so many

61
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: synergies and I really felt compelled to do that, and

62
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever done that, Like I was

63
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: really kind of mortified later, but I'm glad it worked out.

64
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: But but that is that is in your nature to

65
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: do that, because you are you know, you say you're

66
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: these things, but you're all also very fearless and incredibly

67
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: inspirational and interesting. So you know, I just wanted to

68
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: spend a second. I'm like, I can't even like remember

69
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: every little thing you've done, But what did you do

70
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 1: before Google? Okay, so my career is a bit of

71
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: a windy groad. So I started. I'm a lawyer by training,

72
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: as you mentioned. Um, So I started my career post

73
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: law school living in London at a big New York

74
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: law firm called Sherman and Sterling. I spent a few

75
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,600
Speaker 1: years there, and I went there and spent two years

76
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: in the London office, traveling over Europe, came back to

77
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: the New York office, and then about a year into

78
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: my time in New York, um that Not eleven happened.

79
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 1: And when I came back to New York, I always

80
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 1: knew that I didn't want to stay at a big

81
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: firm forever. I sort of tripped into that job. But

82
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: Not eleven was a big wake up call. And I

83
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: always had a very strong bleeding heart, you know, I

84
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: was a very I had a strong impetus to do

85
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: good in the world, and so that was kind of

86
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: the kick in the pants I needed to go do it.

87
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: So I left Sherman and Sterling and went to the

88
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,479
Speaker 1: Robin Hood Foundation, so that Bright and me up, I

89
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 1: didn't know that. Yeah, So I and three years of

90
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: robin Foundation doing sort of consulting work essentially for the

91
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: grand recipients of Robin Hood. And it was an extraordinary time, UM,

92
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: really important work. It was really part of the fabric

93
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 1: of the city and the rebuild of the city. So

94
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: it was really humbling to be a part of that

95
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: very on the ground. But I wasn't practicing law there

96
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: and then I kind of realized I missed the law,

97
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: which I never thought would be wars that would come

98
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: out of my mouth. And so I ended up at

99
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: a recently started nonprofit called Acumen Fund, which is not

100
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: called Acumen. I went there as a general council and

101
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 1: so helped us set up our offices in India and

102
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: focus on and you know, just figuring out how to

103
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: do these grounds and equity investments in different companies and

104
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: nonprofits around the world. Um. And then after a few

105
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: years there, I was recruited to Google. So Acumen was

106
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: a big grand recipient Google when Google dot org first started,

107
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,039
Speaker 1: and I honestly had no idea what I was doing

108
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: there when I walked in there. I was like, I

109
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: don't understand how the interne at works. I don't understand

110
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 1: how Google makes money. I was really clueless walking into

111
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 1: that job, but it worked out great and I ended

112
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: up loving it. I stayed there for many years, and

113
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: then you went to Warby Parker and then I went

114
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: to Eary Parker. Yeah. So funny enough, one of the

115
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 1: founders of Warby Parker knew me from my time and acumen,

116
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: and so when I was at GC there he was

117
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: running one of the nonprofits right out of college that

118
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 1: we funded, and we ran into each other at a

119
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: conference um and he came up to me and was like,

120
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: you know, do you remember me. I'm doing this thing now.

121
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: It's like, good for you. I didn't wear glasses. I

122
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 1: really didn't understand the pain point. I didn't understand what

123
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: you're building. But then he reached out to me when

124
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: I was at Google for about six years and he

125
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 1: was like, hey, would you would you talk to me

126
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 1: about this position. We're thinking about hiring a general counsel

127
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,679
Speaker 1: and we'd like that to be you. But the pattern

128
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: is that you don't know what you're doing when you

129
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: take these jobs, and you just go in and you

130
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: figure it out. Yeah, that's very much a pattern. And

131
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: it's funny because, especially as a lawyer, I think that's

132
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 1: not typical because usually you're as a lawyer, paid for

133
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: what you already know, and then you do that again

134
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: and again, and you sort of double down on the

135
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: expertise and just get to charge more and more for

136
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: that expertise. And what I found is a that's not

137
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: fun for me. So I'm happy to do it to

138
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: a point, but I get bored really easily doing that. Um,

139
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: And I think there's way better lawyers than me. Frankly.

140
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: I think there's like people who are so good at

141
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: what they do with the legal stuff, and they really

142
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: love the nuances and the weeds of the law. But

143
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: I like, you know, figuring it out, untangling the spaghetti,

144
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: and then passing off to somebody else who can do

145
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: it again and again and then moving on to the

146
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: next thing, because how long will you or be I

147
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: was there three years, three years, and then you went

148
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: to well, then I left because I got a book deal.

149
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: So I ended up writing a book which had nothing

150
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: to do with any of this stuff. And the name,

151
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: the name of the book the book is called Stocking

152
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 1: God my unorthodox search for something to believe in. And

153
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: it is funny. It is, it is honestly, it's a

154
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: comedy as you are hysterical, you're you're one of those

155
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: like bright, bright brains, but super funny. No, I appreciate that,

156
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: thank you. That's the goal. Yeah, it was a really

157
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: fun project. I had come up with this idea with

158
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: my daughter, who just turned eleven, if you can believe it. Um,

159
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: I think she was like three when you and I

160
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: got home. Yeah, um, so she just turned eleven. But

161
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: when she was born, I realized that I didn't really

162
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: know what I believed about religion and spirituality and sort

163
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: of the big questions in life that you couldn't google

164
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 1: and answer to. But I realized that Zia is my name,

165
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 1: that she would one day soon be asking me all

166
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,599
Speaker 1: kinds of things I didn't know, and so maybe I

167
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: would try to figure it out. So it started as

168
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: just a little project. I would go and meet like

169
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: a cookie healer, or I would go to like some

170
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: spiritual thing and do little things around the city. And

171
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: then it sort of took on a life of its

172
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: own and turned into this project. Um, and it's sort

173
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: of before everybody was meditating. You know, It's like that

174
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: stuff was super mainstream, um, at least in my circles,

175
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: and so I still felt like I was a little

176
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: out there doing this, but I was willing to try.

177
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: And I think what people responded to is like I

178
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: told the stories that like cock told parties and never funny,

179
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 1: and my friends would laugh. And then people are just like,

180
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: you have to write the stuff down, like there's something here.

181
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: And then it turned into a book and then you've

182
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: had one more job before we go into your new life, right,

183
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 1: you had one more gig, which is at Chat. Yes. Correct.

184
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: So once as my book was coming out, I think

185
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 1: when I finished the book, I literally turned in the

186
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: final draft and an old colleague from Google who had

187
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: started Chatter transponed board. He reached out to me and

188
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,199
Speaker 1: was like, you know, we're building this thing. It was

189
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: sort of the same things that we're building this thing, um,

190
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: would you come talk to us and we think we

191
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: need a chief people officer. That's how the conversation started.

192
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: And I was like, I don't know that stuff, but yeah,

193
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: I have nothing that knew. I'm happy to chat. And

194
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,599
Speaker 1: when he was telling me what they were doing, I

195
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 1: was like I was it's pretty interesting, and I know

196
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: nothing about the news world or media in that way.

197
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: A part of my time working on YouTube stuff, and

198
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I'm curious. Sure, I'm happy

199
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: to do this. And I love culture. I think that

200
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: stuff is really important. How you treat employees, what how

201
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 1: to get the best from people, Diversity, inclusion, all those

202
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: issues were things that I was super interested in. UM

203
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: so I took the job. And then this also became

204
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: a pattern where they kind of through in the second job, like, oh,

205
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 1: can you also be our general counsel? Was like yeah, sure,

206
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: so I was doing sort of that very womanly way

207
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: too for the price of one. And and do you

208
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: have people that you call and discuss this with? Is

209
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 1: it your husband? Is it you want to say, Well,

210
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 1: we've never had the financial discussion. You know, That's what

211
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's a really good point. The financial discussions

212
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: are hard for me. It's so interesting. I'm really trying

213
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: to work that muscle and get better at it. Um

214
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 1: I wasn't you know. I was definitely raised with that

215
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 1: generation where it's just not polite to talk about money.

216
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: You just you don't ask those questions. I don't know like,

217
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: it's all this stuff that I know is wrong, and

218
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: I would advise anybody else not to take that advice.

219
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: I think that's definitely a hard thing, and I know

220
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: it's hard for women. It's definitely hard, and I wish

221
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: it weren't true. And I'm really trying to get better

222
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 1: because the only way it gets better for all of

223
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: us is if we all are sharing the math and

224
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: really understanding, like, hey, but I've gotten better about certain things,

225
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 1: Like I will when friends are telling you, like for

226
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: speaking engagements and that kind of thing, and like they're

227
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: paying you what you need to be asking for four

228
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: times that, and I'm like, well, and then I will

229
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: tell them this is what I got paid when I

230
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 1: do a keno. When you are way way more popular

231
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 1: than you have way more expertise on issue acts like

232
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: you're the Michael Jordan, I'll blank, you should be paid accordingly.

233
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 1: And um, I think that's helped all of us be

234
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 1: more transparent. So much of what you do, it's like

235
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: a snowball. You know, you do one thing and that

236
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: takes on and it just keeps growing. So your book

237
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: is also the gift that keeps on giving. Is it

238
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: true that your ted talk. You've got four million? How

239
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: many people I haven't looked? Well, I have to go.

240
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: It's over for me, and I thing over four million

241
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 1: people have senior type Yeah, that's unbelievable. Isn't that crazy? Yeah?

242
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: It's crazy. So so what was it like doing a

243
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 1: Ted Talk? It was incredible. It was an out of

244
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: body experience. I mean, I was so humble to be

245
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: asked to do it. And then I got really in

246
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: my head about what should I talk about. I was like, well,

247
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: I have to, you know, talk about saving the world,

248
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 1: and I have to talk about business and social good

249
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: through business and like all these things that I care about.

250
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: And I don't know why I didn't occur to me

251
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: right off the bat, just to talk about this journey

252
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: that I went on for this book that was coming out.

253
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 1: And finally I was like, oh, you know what I

254
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: have to do is just tell a really great story.

255
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: That's what I have to do because I'm not an

256
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 1: expert at blank. I didn't discover a cure for cancer,

257
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 1: like I don't have that guy, which is a lot

258
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: of what Ted talks are um. So I was like,

259
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna tell something that I am uniquely qualified

260
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,079
Speaker 1: to talk about, which is my journey on this particular topic.

261
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,199
Speaker 1: Um So that's what I did. So I just told

262
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 1: the story of my attempts to sort of find religion

263
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: and spirituality and the answers to the big questions in life.

264
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: Um and that I failed at it miserably. But then

265
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: the you know, kind of cut away at the end

266
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: was that, but here's what I found instead, which was

267
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 1: that everybody, regardless of their religious affiliation, of their socio

268
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: economic background, if anything, we're all looking for the same

269
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: three things which in my research, my my qualitative research

270
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: um or health, happiness, and love. And so I kind

271
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: of take people through that journey health, happiness, and love.

272
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly though, that's like the essence of probably

273
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 1: why we connected, Like those are those are three things

274
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,200
Speaker 1: that are very important to me, you know, and the

275
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: reason you know, the next season of my podcast, I've

276
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: been thinking a lot about where I want to take

277
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: it and what I want to do, and for the

278
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 1: third season, I realized that my my passion right now

279
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 1: is helping people. I mean, it always has been. It's

280
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: it's empowering, encouraging, making people, allowing people to learn how

281
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: to feel comfortable in their skin, which that's confident and

282
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 1: just the whole empowerment thing, you know. Being Look, I

283
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: was a working mother, you know, I was a commuting mother,

284
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: and I just really think that we need to build

285
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: our community. And I just thought who better to have

286
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: these conversations than you. You're the only person I thought

287
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: of than you know, and you also have this amazing

288
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: network of cool women that you know, have stories to

289
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: tell and have ways to inspire other people. So well,

290
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: I'm excited and I feel like you and me and

291
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: a roll, a dux and a telephone, we could we

292
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,600
Speaker 1: could solve any problems. I think the two of us,

293
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: we will, you know, will turn it into something else.

294
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: So let's do you know, I do believe that you're

295
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: stronger together than you are alone. I love a collaboration.

296
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 1: I think, you know. It's um It's funny when you

297
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: when I go through all the things that I've done,

298
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: and a lot of it's just because I've done things

299
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: for shorter amounts of time, Like I didn't run a

300
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: company like you did for twenty five years. That was

301
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: my own brand that I felt, you know, it's a

302
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: different thing. I've been mostly an operator working for somebody

303
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: else's vision UM. But my favorite times at any of

304
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: those places, or side projects or any of it is

305
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: always in a collaboration because I love the give and

306
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: take of that. I love the exchange of ideas. I

307
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: don't want to be the smartest person in the room.

308
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 1: I wanted to be a very middle of the pack

309
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: and learned from everyone around me. And so UM, that's

310
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 1: so fun to get that advice from people and people

311
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: like you. But you are working on a couple of

312
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: things now. I have been advising companies, so I started

313
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: my own advisory company that I'm calling Slightly Reserved. There's

314
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: a back story there that I won't for you with,

315
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: but it's I just advise about twenty startups and mostly

316
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: it's the founders that I'm really advising UM and the

317
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: kind of industry agnostic it's all over the map, everything

318
00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: from fintech companies to beauty and wellness companies like Natural Beauty, UM,

319
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: some supplement companies, and then you know kind of everything

320
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 1: in between. It's like a nice mix of companies, subtext

321
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: and non tech, mostly women and people of color founders,

322
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: which I love. UM. When then I have a handful

323
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: of legal clients just because they are incredible people, and

324
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 1: so I can't help myself, and I want to help

325
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: some of those books. And then I have some media

326
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: projects that I'm kicking around, which has been a really

327
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: fun you know kind of second chapter or whatever chapter

328
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: I'm in at this point through chapter UM, that I'm

329
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: super excited about. And I think a lot of that

330
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: came from doing the Toxic Google, doing you know, the

331
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: Ted talks certainly in the book UM, and doing some

332
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: public speaking around the book, and just around my time

333
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: at warby Parker, I started getting out there more and

334
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: like you said, you know, kind of having a bit

335
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,320
Speaker 1: more of a public profile as much as you can

336
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: have a public profile doing the nerdy things that I do.

337
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: But um, yeah, so these things are now coming in.

338
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: So we're developing my book into a limited series or

339
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: a comedy series, which is super super are exciting. It's

340
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: very early stages, but uh, you know from which cross

341
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 1: I think there's so much room for content, as we've

342
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: seen in the past year. So this podcast is all

343
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 1: about what people could learn from the people that inspire me.

344
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 1: And you are here because you inspire me, Like, what

345
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: do you think that our listeners could learn from you?

346
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: And where you've been to where they are, well, I

347
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:44,200
Speaker 1: hope they can learn that not knowing what you're doing

348
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: is actually a strength, not a weakness. Like going into things,

349
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: um with a bit of a beginner's mindset and staying

350
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,359
Speaker 1: open two things I think can really put you in

351
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: a position of strength. I think we have a culture

352
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: that really overvalues expertise and a way that um, you know,

353
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 1: it's great obviously you want to be an expert at stuff,

354
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,959
Speaker 1: but a fresh perspective without carrying a lot of um

355
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: kind of preconsilt notions about what's possible and what's not possible,

356
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: can make you do things really really differently. And so

357
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: I think you can do that sort of as a company,

358
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,199
Speaker 1: but even as a person and the way you approach

359
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: your work. I think it's really important. And what kind

360
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: of fearful things have you overcome in your career. I

361
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: think I'm getting better at advocating for myself. So it

362
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: sort of what we were talking about earlier, just you know,

363
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 1: setting up what I need to be successful, making sure

364
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: I asked about things that I'm concerned about before taking

365
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 1: a position or before working with somebody, are taking on

366
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: a client, and that's not something I was always so

367
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,480
Speaker 1: good at Like, so I think even when I left Google,

368
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: initially I my daughter was about three and I was

369
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: going to Warby Parker and the team, you know, the

370
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: senior team I thought was all single, no kids. That

371
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: didn't end up being the case, but I would never

372
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: have asked them about how they think about, you know,

373
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 1: working parents and what sort of flexibility they offer an

374
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: a that kind of thing, had you not pushed me

375
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 1: to frankly so, because I remember we had a conversation

376
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: right before I was deciding, and You're like, is there

377
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: anything left unset is or anything that you're still concerned about?

378
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: And I raised this issue with you and I said, well,

379
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: you know, my daughter is only three. Um, I think

380
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: this is it. You first encouraged me to have more kids,

381
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: and I was like, did my mom call you? And

382
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 1: was like I gave that just um. But then I

383
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: was like, well, I'm concerned about this one piece because

384
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 1: I have incredible flexibility at Google. I've earned a lot

385
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 1: of goodwill and trust there and so I can do

386
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 1: you know, I can kind of do what I need

387
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: to do and be there for my child and then

388
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: also be really effective at work. And so I'm nervous

389
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 1: about going into this senior position at a small, you know,

390
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,360
Speaker 1: a fast growing startup, and what does that look like

391
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: if my daughter is only three And she's like, well,

392
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 1: you have to ask a question. You said to me,

393
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: you have to ask a question. I was like, I

394
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: can't do what I can't you know, wait after I've

395
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: been there a couple of year, then I'll ask you, like,

396
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: you have to ask the question. I was like, okay,

397
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna stuck it up and ask the question.

398
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: And so what happened? What always the old women? To

399
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 1: all one of the founders, and he was like, oh

400
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: my gosh, I'm so glad you asked. Of course, whatever

401
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: you need, you know, you should talk to Lan or cto.

402
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 1: He's got kids and you know, whatever you need and

403
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 1: whatever flexibility you need, of course will be supportive of

404
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 1: all that. We love family, you know, we we all

405
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: want kids. Like he was really so gracious about it,

406
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 1: and he said all the right things, and I was like, oh,

407
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: thank god I asked, because I would have been so

408
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,720
Speaker 1: nervous going in and I think it would have taken

409
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 1: me a really long time to build up the nerve

410
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: to um to have that flexibility to ask for it.

411
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 1: So things like that I think we're really important, Like

412
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 1: ask for what you need before you go into something,

413
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: and then if they say no, you have to go

414
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 1: home and decide exactly. At least you haven't answered, You're

415
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 1: not like wondering what the answer is. Yeah, because they

416
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: usially could have been like nope, for her eight a m.

417
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 1: Until ten pm. We expect you on seven and that's

418
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: the deal. And then that's a different answer and that's okay,

419
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: that's okay too, and that could be the expectation, but um,

420
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: it wouldn't have been right for me. So what would

421
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,719
Speaker 1: you say to someone that's having issues in their career

422
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: right now where they're stuck at at a job they're

423
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 1: not happy with, or they're trying to get their business

424
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 1: off the ground. What kind of encouragement and advice would

425
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: you give people? So these are these are pretty unusual times,

426
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: which I think makes my answer a little bit different

427
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: because I do recognize that obviously, the security of a job,

428
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 1: the challenges of the current job market, working from home,

429
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: all those kinds of things make it really difficult to

430
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,159
Speaker 1: make a big job switch in this time or to

431
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:44,680
Speaker 1: launch a new idea. Um But that said, I think,

432
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 1: if anything, or if nothing else, this past year has

433
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: really taught us that life is super super short, and

434
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: you really want to spend your time doing things that

435
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 1: you love with people that you respect and that respect you.

436
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:03,159
Speaker 1: So I would encourage you to start thinking about what

437
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,159
Speaker 1: that really looks like for you and telling people and

438
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: asking around and finding the right environment. I think, you know,

439
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: what I've found is that it almost doesn't matter what

440
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: you're working on if you're doing it with people that

441
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 1: you really enjoy working with. And so I think that's

442
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 1: the biggest, biggest lesson that I've had just over the

443
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: course of my career, and certainly the past years proven

444
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 1: that time and time again. So I would stay focus

445
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 1: on the people first. And I would also say make

446
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 1: sure you have a posse totally, make sure you have

447
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 1: people you could talk to you're not by yourself. Yeah,

448
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:41,360
Speaker 1: I think that's right. Like a tribe of people. I've

449
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: heard friends referred to them for referred to their posse

450
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,719
Speaker 1: as like their board of advisors or personal board of advisors,

451
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: And I think there is something to that of having

452
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 1: people around you. I actually do this for my daughter

453
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 1: um every year on her birthday, I gift her what

454
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: we call a wise woman, and so it's somebody from

455
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: our lives some time she knows them really well. Sometimes

456
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 1: there's somebody from my life that I think would be

457
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 1: an incredible mentor and person for her to know and

458
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 1: to be close to and just to have a relationship

459
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: with in some way because of whatever she's into that year,

460
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: or whatever she's really excited about, or just shortcomings that

461
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: I find in myself, frankly, because I know that I

462
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,360
Speaker 1: can't be everything for her, and I know that there

463
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: will be times that she does not want to come

464
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: to me for advice, and so I want her to

465
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: feel like she's got a lot of trusted women in

466
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: particular around her that she has access to and that

467
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: she has an independent relationship with from me. So I

468
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: think it's kind of like creating that for her now

469
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 1: at age eleven, um, so that she has that. But

470
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 1: it took me a long time to figure out that

471
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: I needed that for myself too, So I think it's

472
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 1: because I was doing it for myself that I started

473
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: doing it for her. That's a that's a very cool thing.

474
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 1: So would you also tell everyone where they can get

475
