35
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:41,760

36
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:42,800

37
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:44,839

Speaker 2: us who are like, where are the visuals? Where is

45
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:06,640

00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 2: of twenty four million.

47
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 1: Ul awesome donas the DeRos.

48
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 2: Which is like a GDP of some kind of country,

49
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 2: probably a mid sized country. That's insane. And it looked

50
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 2: like she used every red scent that they gave her.

51
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 1: She had Blue Ivy on stage. You want her two steps?

52
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: I say, yes, Blue.

53
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 2: I wonder if she has to book Blue, like, I

54
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 2: wonder if she has to contact Blues agent.

55
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: Blue is like not that twenty four twenty is mine.

56

57
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: I can't find any clips of Blue singing, and everyone

58
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 2: in the comments is like pissed, like there's only clips

59
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,600

00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 2: Like I wish I looked up, you know, thirty five

63
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 2: in this beautiful red sparkly suit. About just saying brown

64
00:02:55,040 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 2: skinned girl, I just want to hear brown skin with blue,

65
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 2: but looks amazing.

66
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the lesson from Beyonce is the

67
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 1: they have the coin. Don't let these people tell you

68
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: they don't have coin. They will find the coin if

69
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: you remember, illustrate your oport we're gonna say illustration your Beyonce.

70
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: You know, like if you show up with excellence and

71
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: undeniable excellence, the coin will be will be produced.

72
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 2: I know you were just talking about like the strategic

73
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: of market the strategy of marketing and how crucial it is,

74
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 2: and I'm like, Beyonce never just does it one way,

75
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 2: because I saw some footage of like there's an Ivy

76
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 2: Park preview show at the Atlanta's Hotel where she was like,

77
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 2: you know, performing, and she had the Ivy Park logo

78
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 2: out there and she had the models working by, so

79
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:42,040

00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 2: hear there's some okay, a couple what should we talk

99
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 2: about first, mass tech layoffs or the buffoonery that is

100
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,919
Speaker 2: Florida's governor And they're.

101
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,720
Speaker 1: Just I'm not going to talk about this fool in Florida.

102
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 2: Okay, let's do it. So I was reading more into this.

103
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: So Florida, if you guys haven't heard, rejected adding an

104
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,559
Speaker 2: ap so ap is like the super Smart Kids class,

105
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: college level forces in high school, Advanced Placement class for

106
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 2: African American studies. And they say because it included study.

107
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 2: They released this like one page, here's why, and included

108
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 2: in that one pager was because the topics like the

109
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,159
Speaker 2: movement for Black Lives, black feminism, and reparations were on

110
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 2: the list of concerns. According to Governor Ron, this is

111
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 2: bah de voltemort number two. I like, what bullshit? You

112
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 2: know how much of my ap triggodometry I use in

113
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 2: my everyday life exactly, APUs history ap lit like none

114
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 2: of that, you know what I use, what I would love.

115
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 2: I didn't even know that was, you know, a thing

116
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 2: when I was in high school.

117
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: But I was.

118
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 2: I think, that's so why why why can't we educate

119
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 2: you know, young people on them like this concerted area

120
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: of history. You know, it just seems like such a

121
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: no brainer. But also I'm not entirely surprised that of

122
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 2: all the states, Florida was the one the same it's

123
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 2: too much for us.

124
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I saw that, and I was just like,

125
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: this is what yah, people y'all be voted for, you.

126
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 2: Know ya president, Like they're saying he potentially could run

127
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 2: for president one day.

128
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: I know, And I know Donald Trump has been saying

129
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: a lot of things about howd I honestly, personally, one

130
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: thing I do like is to watch let them hose fight.

131
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: I'm enjoying that part because I was like, oh, y'all

132
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: go to Guesst the main man they've been they've been dragging,

133
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 1: and I'll say, well, like like my friend Deustin Ross

134
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: says of the friend zone, let them hose fight.

135
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 2: Let them let them destroy each other.

136
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: I hope.

137
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 2: I mean I feel like this is a second big blow.

138
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 2: In Florida, they also had that don't say gay bill, Yeah,

139
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,159
Speaker 2: where they don't want you talking about you know, sexuality

140
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 2: and elementary school Like this is why with all of

141
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 2: our resources in this country, we still have like all

142
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 2: these unwanted births. Ro v Wade being overturned. You know.

143
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,559
Speaker 2: STI is running a book like it's just it's sad.

144
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 2: It really is up to us. I feel like to

145
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 2: to educate the youths on our own and outside of school.

146
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: But what to say? What to say? There also were

147
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 2: I mean, on top of like the layoffs, I thought

148
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: I was gonna come on here and talk about Google

149
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: because they lost They let go of twelve thousand people.

150
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: When was this Friday, Thursday or Friday? But it was

151
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 2: so shitty how they did it because like some people,

152
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 2: it happened so early. Maybe it was what day is today?

153
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: I can't keep track anyway, I've been up with a

154
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 2: sick kid all night. But some people just found out

155
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 2: because they logged into their email and they couldn't get in.

156
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 2: And even sadder, some people showed up to the office

157
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 2: and their badge wouldn't work. Oh my god, So they

158
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 2: just stood outside like and then people would tell them, oh, yeah,

159
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,119
Speaker 2: did you read your email? Did you read the news?

160
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 2: And they would just stand there. Some people on their

161
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 2: way from New York, you know, on the subway. You

162
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 2: don't check your email before you get to work. Sometimes

163
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 2: one girl found out her boss texted her to see

164
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 2: if she was okay. She didn't know, and she was sobbing,

165
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: and it's you know, these are real lives, and it's sad.

166
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 2: It is it's very sad. So they're and the problem is,

167
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 2: I mean, there's lots of problem, but the thing is

168
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: there's tens of thousands of really really talented people. I

169
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 2: think there's been over seventy thousand to eighty thousand people

170
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 2: let go from tech just in the first like six

171
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: weeks of the new year. Who just in the first

172
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 2: month and a little bit before the new year, like

173
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: tens of thousands of people let go. And these are

174
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 2: highly skilled, excellent people. This was not something and they

175
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: don't lay off people based on you know, merit, you know,

176
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 2: or performance. And that's why I think it's important for

177
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 2: anyone who's you know, looking at anyone who's been laid

178
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: let go, like don't judge them don't think, oh, they

179
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: were let go because they were somehow less than or

180
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 2: they couldn't hack it. Because these layoffs are so there's

181
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 2: just so uh what do you call it, like blunt.

182
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 2: They just sort of decide this is a number. You

183
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 2: guys have to find the people to cut, no rhyme

184
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 2: or reason, you know, let's go. And it just sucks

185
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 2: because there's thousands of people flooding the job market at

186
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,959
Speaker 2: the same time in a concerted industry. So if you're

187
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 2: someone who's been let go and tech, I feel you

188
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 2: because it is going to be more challenging to run

189
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 2: out there and find new work. Not that you can't

190
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 2: do it, but you're competing with everybody, like all these

191
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 2: other people who have been let go as well. And yeah,

192
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 2: for anyone who thought big tech was safe, I'll say

193
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 2: it again, there's no such thing as a stable job

194
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 2: or an entirely stable industry. And if you're someone who's

195
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 2: worried and maybe you've avoided getting late let go so far,

196
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 2: you know, it's never too early. I feel like to

197
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 2: start dusting off your LinkedIn, you know, warming up those connections,

198
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 2: starting to get your resume together, just in case, just

199
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 2: in case, unfortunately it happens to you as well. But

200
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 2: if I laid off six percent of its workforce or

201
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 2: about six hundred employees, and I.

202
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,120
Speaker 1: Saw Venmo too, like it was just it's crazy to

203
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: your point. You know, it's one thing, one one company

204
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: to do this, but the market is going to be

205
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,720
Speaker 1: flooded with all of these highly skilled, specifically trained people.

206
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 2: So y'all know where to go if you need some

207
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 2: career coaching.

208
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: Mandy Money, I'm just science.

209
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 2: I'm like an ambulance chaser. Now send him over to

210
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 2: the Mandy Money. Oh gross, cut that out. I hate myself,

211
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 2: all right, but no heart, my heart definitely goes out

212
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 2: to y'all who are who are being let go. I

213
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 2: hope that severance package is fact, and I hope you

214
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 2: I saw one TikTok of a girl who got let

215
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 2: go from Google and she was like, I cried all

216
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 2: day and then I took myself to Disneyland. More of that.

217
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 2: To treat yourself, be kind to yourself, you know, whatever

218
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 2: you need to do in the next couple of weeks,

219
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 2: and then get to work because it's yeah, it's going

220
00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: to be competitive out there. But also self care is important,

221
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 2: and don't take it personally. I mean as much as

222
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 2: you can try it to take it personally and don't

223
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 2: let it kind of destroy your your own belief about

224
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 2: your talent and you know, your potential in this field.

225
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 2: It's nothing to do with y'all. It's really just about

226
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 2: businesses being businesses, you know, and worrying about their bottom line,

227
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:13,079
Speaker 2: which they're all what you're going to do. Unfortunately, so.

228
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: On more not so great news. I don't know, like,

229
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: what does it take in the US of A to

230
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:30,439
Speaker 1: pass legislation that so you kill kids, no kill black people, No,

231
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: you kill like high school students, college students, Like, what

232
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: does it take? And you know, we have another mess shooting.

233
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: I just what is it going to take? Is it

234
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: gonna take for people to target politicians? Families?

235
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 2: Like?

236
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: What is it going to take? You know?

237
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, honestly, ever since Sandy Hook when

238
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,959
Speaker 2: it was twenty six babies, I was like, that's a

239
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 2: rap Thanks of America. You know, it's not happening. I

240
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 2: just saw that. Although so of course we're talking about

241
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 2: and our hearts go out to the everyone impact by

242
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 2: the Monterey Park massacre that happened over the weekend on

243
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 2: at just the beginning of the lunar New Year celebration,

244
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 2: which is supposed to be this like joyous time. It's

245
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 2: days and days of celebrating this wonderful start to the

246
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 2: new year, the Year of the Rabbit. And yeah, ten

247
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 2: people shot in a mass shooting. And then there was

248
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 2: another one last night and Baton Rouge apparently, I don't

249
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 2: know much about that. And then one CNN report says

250
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 2: there's been three No, there's been thirty six mass shootings

251
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 2: from the last three weeks.

252
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: Three weeks, three.

253
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 2: Weeks alone, too many for all the headlines. Yeah, in

254
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 2: the last three weeks. So I think a mass shooting

255
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 2: is a more than four thirty six. This is America

256
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three, y'all. I don't know if it's

257
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 2: just like the hormones and the all the fields and

258
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 2: all the emotions, but it's there are days when I

259
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 2: drop Rio off to daycare and I have to have

260
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 2: a little baby cry in the car because I'm like,

261
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 2: how do I know nothing's going to happen? Know? Or

262
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 2: I go to a movie theater and I'm like, where's

263
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 2: the exit? What if something happens? Excuse me, I can't

264
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 2: be the only one. But that's where I'm just like,

265
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 2: have my therapist on on text, like I'm having a

266
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 2: moment with some intrusive thoughts. I know it's you know,

267
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 2: we have to we have to move forward and keep

268
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 2: it pushing and all of that. But saying it out

269
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 2: loud sometimes at least helps like move through that moment

270
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 2: and and keep going, because sometimes it just feels like

271
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 2: you just want to hide in your bed and not leave.

272
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 2: Well maybe we should have faded with the Beyonce news.

273
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: That's okay. We send a prayer up respect, you know,

274
00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: for people's families, like because these are you know, hundreds

275
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: of families, if not thousands of families that are affected

276
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: where things will never be the same.

277
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 2: You know, Oh.

278
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 1: America, Why why, why why is there anything to make

279
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: people smile?

280
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 2: No pressure? Well, what's on your shirt?

281
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: It says good vibes, good vibes good just from targets

282
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: from years ago. Well, I'm loving it, you know, I

283
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: want to keep it to myself until like I took look,

284
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,199
Speaker 1: it's like it's some good, you know, hopefully good news

285
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: about like you know this place I'm trying to buy,

286
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: but I saw this other place. And when I tell

287
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: you I feel like Beyonce lives here because it's on

288
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,760
Speaker 1: the eighth before you went in. No, because it's on

289
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: the eighth floor, and it the views. Because so where

290
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: I live in Forest Hill, it's called Forest Hill because

291
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: it's literally on a hill and it's at the edge

292
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: of Newark, so I can see when I go for

293
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: a walk, there's parts of the walk where I could

294
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: just see the whole New York City side skyline and

295
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: it's just beautiful. And so the place where I'm wanting

296
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: to to purchase it is like built even further on

297
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 1: the hill. So many of the some of the unit's

298
00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: not many, but some of the units have the New

299
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: York City these skylines. So the unit that I want

300
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: has a big picture window New York City skyline. Hey girl, Hey,

301
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: that's all you see? No, No, it's just epic. But

302
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 1: then's something, you know. There's another unit that's for sale

303
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: and the people who live there opened up all of

304
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: the windows and it's like an L shape. Like the

305
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: room is like, you know, a rectangle square, but two

306
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 1: sides of the room are just filled with windows, and

307
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: then it has like a fireplace in it. And I

308
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: have never in my life Mandy I gasped when I

309
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: went up there because.

310
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 2: I'm picturing Carrie from the first Sex and Sexy Saxity movie,

311
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 2: the only one that I will acknowledge because it's never happened.

312
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 2: It never I or am Big go into the bed.

313
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I get when I say gas. I

314
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,440
Speaker 1: was like, I've never It reminded me of like, you know,

315
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: sometimes I go to the city to tape something and

316
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,120
Speaker 1: they're like, you're in some building on the twenty third floor,

317
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 1: and you're like you just like people work in an

318
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: office space where they see all of this. It was

319
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: that and I said, I don't know, I might take

320
00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 1: this unit, but then the rest of the unit really

321
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 1: didn't it here to the way I live my life.

322
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: Like it wasn't like enough bedrooms. I didn't have like

323
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: a place where I could see half in my office.

324
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: It just it was like, you know, it's a nice unit,

325
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: but like and if I honestly didn't work from home largely,

326
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: I might consider it, but that living I want one day.

327
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: I am going to have a living room like that

328
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 1: one day, but with all the other things that I need.

329
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 1: Because it was I mean, you could see New York,

330
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 1: you see Jersey City, you could see her. I've never

331
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: seen anything like that in real life. I was like,

332
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: how am I loud up here? Yeah, it was just

333
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: a level of luxury and either, yes, okay.

334
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 2: We manifest you absolutely deserve to be there so that

335
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 2: I can be the friend who comes.

336
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: Over girl, like I said, the unit that I'm actually

337
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 1: like hopefully going to get. I'll know by today that

338
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: you know, it is very beautiful and like like it

339
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 1: it's the way the space is laid out is the

340
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: way that I need to live my life. And I'm like,

341
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: cause I was like, I was so tempted to be like, girl,

342
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: forget that place, but I was just like, no, you know,

343
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: there's like things that you need to live day to day.

344
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: You cannot just live in the living room, although it's close,

345
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: but you never know. But I just wanted to share

346
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: that this. Sometimes it's really nice to go and see

347
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: these epic things because it makes these things like normal.

348
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 1: There's an amazing I think they're Puerto Rican couple that

349
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,360
Speaker 1: live there and they lived there for the last ten years.

350
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 1: They got a daughter, and they're just really just awesome.

351
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: We just sat and I just sat and talked with

352
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: them for like owners. Yeah, they were there. Yeah, well

353
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 1: that's because it's not quite on the market yet. But

354
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: they heard that I was looking, and so they're like, Okay,

355
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: come see my place. And it's like it's beautiful, but

356
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: like I said, is like the other place has a

357
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,920
Speaker 1: really big office, and I really would like a big office.

358
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: It's like it's it's bigger. The other place that I'm

359
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 1: wanting is like twenty eight hundred square feet twenty seven

360
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: to twenty eight and this one is like twenty four.

361
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 1: But that four hundred is the office, you know in

362
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: my house? I know, Mandy, I'm not gonna lie. Where'd

363
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 1: you come? What I mean?

364
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 2: Because we're playing with baby. I have a little toy

365
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 2: I have a little toy house. I feel like I'm pollypocket.

366
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 2: That's what I feel like. How it's real cute and

367
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 2: twenty how many Scriffy It's not that many tiff not

368
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 2: that many. And it's it's I'm trapped the small no

369
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 2: for really. We went to visit a friend who just

370
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 2: had a baby and they moved into this gorgeous new

371
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 2: house and I'm just like, oh, is this what space

372
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,800
Speaker 2: feels like? And you can breathe? And if there's three

373
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: things on the counter. You don't feel like you're living

374
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 2: in an episode of Hoarders.

375
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: Now, that's what I love about hopefully the place that

376
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: I get that. I like my house is not even

377
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: twenty eight hundred scriffy and I have a decent sized house.

378
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: It's not twenty if you don't include the basement, which

379
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: I don't think they do because it wasn't finished at

380
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: the time. But I like the fat fact that it

381
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: feels almost like palatial, you know what I mean, Because

382
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: I was like, it feels it's giving, like I said,

383
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 1: you know, rich Auntie vibe, so saying pray for me

384
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 1: that it all goes through. I'm this close, you know,

385
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: to like locking it in. But I don't know. I

386
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 1: just feel like this morning, I thought to myself, I'm

387
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 1: feeling a mix of grief, gratefulness, joy, and like excitement

388
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 1: about like this other half of life. And so it's possible,

389
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: like you know, coding it to doctor Green that to

390
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: hold all these things and hold space for all these things.

391
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,280

409
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,199
Speaker 2: want to boost Tabatha Brown. And I also want to

410
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 2: remind her that you said you were gonna come on

411
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 2: the show girl, Like you know, girl, we her from

412
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 2: you in a minute. But we're proud of you. You

413
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 2: have like seventy eleven different lines at target. But I

414
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 2: just wanted to boost her because I was reading an

415
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 2: article about her or I don't know if it was

416
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: a TikTok or something, but it was just to think

417
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 2: about where this woman was just a few years ago,

418
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 2: and she just launched another like at home goods and

419
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 2: a vegan food line at Targe, which is like her

420
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 2: second completely I don't know, like popular sold out line

421
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 2: at Target, and she has you know, I think, two

422
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 2: best selling books and an Emmy nominated children's show, tab Time.

423
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 2: I love that show. I'm trying to get Rio into it,

424
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 2: but he's He's like, where's the digger, where's the excavator?

425
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 2: If you're listening, tab Let's get some heavy machinery in

426
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: the mix. But she's iconic, and I feel like it's

427
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: someone who you know how people like they'll get pissed

428
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 2: at Shade Moisture, these black brands I get bought by,

429
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,120
Speaker 2: you know, white owned companies. I'm not saying that Tabitha

430
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 2: Brown should not be in her bag and sell to

431
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 2: whoever she wants to sell to, but it just is

432
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,479
Speaker 2: so phenomenal to see her owning all of this, you know,

433
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 2: owning all these businesses and partnering with these huge brands,

434
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 2: and still maintaining what we loved about her from the jump,

435
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 2: which was her spirit and her energy and her positivity

436
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 2: and the joy that she brings, so all those bad

437
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 2: news in the world. I might just take myself to

438
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 2: Target and just go to the tab brown aisle and

439
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 2: buy some things that I don't need for the house

440
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 2: that's too small for everything.

441
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,199
Speaker 1: Also to Target, you know, it's Black History times, so

442
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: they have all the dope black history black creative girl.

443
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: I went the other day. First of all, it was

444
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: too many people online, but I went to peruse and

447
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,520

448
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,240

Speaker 1: it's Sunday.

454
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 2: I can't imagine Target and Newark during Black History Month.

455
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,560
Speaker 2: I bet they have to like have a rope line

456
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 2: to get No.

457
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,280

458
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: new Ark has a Target. If they did, it'd be

459
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: a rap.

460
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 2: But Newark needs to get a target, y'all.

461
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,240
Speaker 1: Got a whole foods dynology.

462
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:39,679
Speaker 2: What's happening all right, TIF, what's your good vibe boost

463
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 2: for today?

464
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: So I'm going to boost a young personal trainer named

465
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Bull. So I was on the interwebs on I

466
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: don't know, Instagram or whatever, and I was like, you

467
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: know what, I feel like I hit a wall with

468
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: my fitness. You know, I was jumping rope. I still

469
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: do from time to time, but mostly I still walk,

470
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:02,400
Speaker 1: which I love. You know, if y'all don't know, I've

471
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: lost like thirty pounds, you know, I'm eating rice, skin

472
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 1: is glowing, drinking my water, just like lifestyle shift. But

473
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 1: I was just like I just knew that this is

474
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: all I know how to do, Like what's the next step?

475
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: And I've had personal trainers perform and you know, some

476
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: good and some not so good. But I was just

477
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: really kind of like in the space where I'm like

478
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: I need I need somebody, but someone who is going

479
00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: to train me in a way, not these weird exercises

480
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: that I can't recreate at home, you know, like things

481
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: that I can actually do. And I ran across his

482
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: page on Instagram and I like that he believes that

483
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 1: there's like basically these six moves that you do that

484
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 1: do total body and you actually don't need to change

485
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 1: the moves. You just increase the weight and you He's like,

486
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: but I think Jeremiah said something like once you get

487
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: over the age of thirty, you start to lose muscle mass.

488
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 1: And then when you start to lose muscle mass, it's

489
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: harder to keep the weight off because muscle helps to

490
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,719
Speaker 1: like burn calories and fat faster or whatever. And I

491
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 1: was like, okay, so I liked, you know, like what

492
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 1: I saw that it wasn't this like you know some

493
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 1: personal trainers, like I said, which is fine, but I'm

494
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,959
Speaker 1: not super coordinated. Just show me the six things to do,

495
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: I wrote him. He was like, I can help. So

496
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: I signed up and today it was my first day.

497
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,159
Speaker 1: And so although I'm like Jeremiah, so I have to

498
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,239
Speaker 1: like do it like so especially for the first day,

499
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: I have to like do like little clips of me

500
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 1: doing each exercise so he can make sure I was

501
00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 1: doing it.

502
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I said, virtual, what did you sign up?

503
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 1: Yes? So I signed up. So what Jeremiah does is

504
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: one you. He asked you all these different questions. He

505
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 1: creates like a I'm really proud of him because his

506
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: name on Instagram is Bull Fitness ninety five, which makes

507
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: me believe he was born I graduated in ninety seven

508
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 1: high school. He's like, my mom loves you. I was like,

509
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: that's great, Jeremia.

510
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 2: He almost I know.

511
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 1: I was like, right, So anyway, so Jeremiah yeah. So

512
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 1: So the way it works is that sign up with him,

513
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,199
Speaker 1: and you know, you have this kind of like one

514
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 1: on one talk with him. He figures out your goals

515
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: and all this other stuff. He creates like this really great,

516
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: like like toolkit for you, and it's like with fitness,

517
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,719
Speaker 1: like it's food, you know, based upon what you say

518
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 1: you want to eat, hear my suggestions, here's how often

519
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,239
Speaker 1: you should eat blah blah blah, and then fitness. What

520
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 1: I like is that he has these short videos all

521
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: under one minute to show you each of the exercises

522
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: with a normal size woman. Well, let me not say that,

523
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 1: because no matter whatever size you are, you're normal sized.

524
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: But with you know, it's not, it's just it's just

525
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 1: a woman that you just see walking every day down

526
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: the street. You know, she's not super ripped or fit.

527
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,440
Speaker 1: He's just like, oh, guys, sis you and I we're here,

528
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: and so so I get to see every exercise and

529
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: then like he's like, you know, record twenty minutes of

530
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: you doing like you know, one or two reps, just

531
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 1: so I know you're doing it in good form. And

532
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 1: then so then we connect on Slack. So he used

533
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: to slack and each woman has her own private Slack

534
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 1: channel with him, and so so I upload like my

535
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 1: video clips like hey, this is what I did, and

536
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: he'll be like, m make sure you don't bet your

537
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: legs so much or and then I upload like you

538
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: upload like you take pictures of like you know, depending

539
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,280
Speaker 1: if your if your weight loss is your thing, which

540
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: I told him maybe like five pounds. I'm not really

541
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm at the weight I kind of want.

542
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: But he was like, okay, if you feel comfortable, you

543
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 1: can upload, like this is how I try to weigh

544

Speaker 1: week like away in week to week to be like, okay,

545
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,640

Speaker 1: your your your menu and your food like what you

547
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: ate today, he said, because I want to know if

548
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: you're not seeing a shift in your body. I can

549
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,239
Speaker 1: look to see like oh this food is not you know,

550
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 1: like what you're eating is not enough or it is

551
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 1: too much or whatever that looks like. And I mean

552
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 1: he does affirmation, So every day I'm like, whatever I

553
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 1: got to we have to write out these seven affirmation screenshot.

554
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 1: It's like, I am strong, I am worthy to be fit,

555
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,959
Speaker 1: I am capable of doing hard things. You know, I

556
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,239
Speaker 1: rolled my eyes when I did it, but then at

557
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: the end, I was like, oh I am so honestly,

558
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 1: it's really I love this, you know, even though he said,

559
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: because what is he? What is he? Twenty eight? Is

560
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: that what it means? He's born in ninety five? Yeah,

561
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 1: twenty yeah, seven, twenty whatever this baby. But it's good.

562
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: He's really motivational. I don't feel judged. It's thorough and

563
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 1: it's also too. The businesswoman in me is just fascinated.

564
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 1: How you know this young person. I feel so old right,

565
00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,439
Speaker 1: this young person has created this business that adheres to

566
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 1: how people navigate in this modern space of digital everything.

567
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,400
Speaker 1: So it's like enough digital but enough not in person,

568
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,199
Speaker 1: because I don't even know where Jeremiah lives, you know,

569
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: like enough digital but enough live that I don't feel

570
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: like I feel like handheld but also autonomous. And so

571
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,879
Speaker 1: I'm really enjoying it, Like I love the fact that

572
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: it's these six core exercises, he said Tippany, he told

573
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: me everything to order, like I have to order some

574
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 1: weights and things. He's like, it's going to be the

575
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,880
Speaker 1: same sixth exercises. You're just going to continue to increase weight,

576
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 1: which I love because I don't I'm not coordinated. Don't

577
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 1: give me seven different things to do new every single week.

578
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,360
Speaker 1: It's like, these are the six now I know how

579
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 1: to do them. I just continue to increase my weight,

580
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: he said. If I continue like this in four weeks,

581
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: I'll see a huge difference. In three months, I'll hit

582
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: my goal and then it'll just be maintenance after that.
