5
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 2: There's no meat and it's just cheese. I did see that.

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 2: I was bun and cheese.

7
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 3: I saw that with no audio though, on the TV

8
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 3: the other day and I was like, Wow, what is that.

9
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 1: It's like cheese, but I don't know if it's so

10
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: grilled or not. Just look like a bunch of cheese.

Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would be interested in it,

14
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: but I don't know how I feel afterwards. All right,

00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: are going after something they love and they're making it

20
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 1: work by it being their job and paying their bills

21
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 1: doing it.

22
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 2: And that's what this story is about. Here.

23
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: Hometown hussler inspired by the La Food truck culture which

Speaker 2: Super good? Great?

31
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: So all right, tell us about this concept and how

32
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: you ended up with a flower truck that looks like

33
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: a food truck but you're selling flowers out of it.

34
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 4: Correct. So back in twenty seventeen, I wanted to sort

35
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 4: of machiever to my mother Lenina, who the truck is

36
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 4: named after, and living in La which were blessed with

37
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 4: the sun, and we already have such a popular food

38
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 4: scene with the trucks. I decided to take a stab

39
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 4: at it, but the flowers.

40
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: And it's called Lenita Linita Flowers Truck by Greta. You

41
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: can go to at Lnita by Greta on Instagram. And

42
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: now you've got your own brick and mortar spot.

43
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, we just opened the shop two months ago in

44
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 4: Heaven Park, which is really excited for it.

45
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: So here's the thing I always wonder with these situations,

46
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: were you how worried. Were you that by doing this

47
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: there was there's obviously a risk involved.

48
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 2: You got to pay your bills. What was that moment, like.

49
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,239
Speaker 4: Well, it's it's always terrifying, you know, and I think

50
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 4: it's just a huge part of wearing in the business.

51
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 4: It's a sort of roller coaster and the what ifs,

52
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 4: and you know, it's touching today's post COVID era with

53
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 4: everything costing so much. It's not something that you know,

54
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 4: terrifying and more some but you know, we've had such

55
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 4: a good support with the truck and we've built such

56
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 4: a good community around it that it gave us a

57
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 4: bit more of a foundation to to actually open the

58
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 4: shop and expand the offering to you know, a more

59
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 4: more study study schedule. So yeah, it's definitely scary, but

60
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 4: we've we got to a point where it felt like

61
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 4: it was just the right time.

62
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,640
