Speaker 1: ambis ambition ambition. Hey Andrew you doing.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to do the viral.

Speaker 3: song I've heard, there's like this dance everyone's doing, and
Speaker 3: I'll just I'll stop.
Speaker 2: No one needs does it require good needs?
Speaker 3: No, it's a pretty It's a lot of like handography.
Speaker 1: Okay, I could do that.
Speaker 2: You know, I got like a little hip hop.
Speaker 1: I don't got that. I don't got the knees, but
Speaker 1: I got my wrist are still a little.
Speaker 3: It's what would be summer without like a little viral
Speaker 3: TikTok dance moment. And I'm just glad because that song
Speaker 3: is hot. And shout out to Japanese music because maybe
Speaker 3: like K pop is that girl right now? Everyone is
Speaker 3: into k pop, but like you know what, I don't
Speaker 3: know who this young man is that she has on
Speaker 3: this track or is she on his track? I don't
Speaker 3: know anyway, love it, Love it for them. Happy September,
Speaker 3: yes or August or whatever, Happy pumpkin spice latte season.
Speaker 1: I know, let's just say that it's post Labor Day yes,
Speaker 1: And I mean, I know we're deeper into the year,
Speaker 1: but I feel like it's a good time for a
Speaker 1: check in and check up of like your financial plus goals.
Speaker 3: It's like, looking back, it's like the September hangover after
Speaker 3: the summer being outside. Yes, this summer was EXPOSI but
Speaker 3: the shitty the worst part is that now the holidays
Speaker 3: are coming and it's like, oh, just let's get it
Speaker 3: together right before example.
Speaker 1: This is an episode let's check in and check up.
Speaker 1: Y'all listening. Good opportunity to check in and check check
Speaker 1: up as well. So, yeah, do you remember, like what
Speaker 1: your goals were in January? You're like, oh, this year
Speaker 1: I hope to do got that? Would it came to
Speaker 1: your like your finances.
Speaker 2: Plus Tiffany, I'm not going to lie to you.
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, in January I was in like
Speaker 3: peak mental health crisis. Like I didn't make any sort
Speaker 3: of goals, Like the only goals I had January leading
Speaker 3: into feb than my dad had his like whole thing.
Speaker 2: It was like survival was.
Speaker 3: My only thing.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: But one.
Speaker 3: One shiny, like one of the bright spots when I
Speaker 3: think about that period is that I hosted Mama's Night
Speaker 3: in which was an event at my house where I
Speaker 3: invited like twenty women, like local like neighbors and friends
Speaker 3: and had this.
Speaker 2: Like killer party.
Speaker 3: I don't know who she was that hosted that party
Speaker 3: at the time, but my goal at the time, because
Speaker 3: you and I talked a lot about making more connections
Speaker 3: and stuff, and my goal at the time was to
Speaker 3: do one of those again. So yeah, but everything else
Speaker 3: that I probably should have made a goal, like saving
Speaker 3: more and bringing in more income from the business, and
Speaker 3: like writing this book. I'm not going to lie. Those
Speaker 3: three things not weren't cute. Weren't cute, But I am
Speaker 3: proud that in the past month or so, I am
Speaker 3: finally making progress on that. So I'm trying to like
Speaker 3: put aside the disappointment and what I thought could be
Speaker 3: the first six months of this year and just like
Speaker 3: make peace and just say, Okay, I'm putting my best
Speaker 3: foot forward now and let's get going again.
Speaker 1: Oh, we're gonna call this episode back half Heavy. That's
Speaker 1: one of my friend He says that, like back half
Speaker 1: Heavy four, like you know, the half of the year,
Speaker 1: like you know, the happening this back half we go,
Speaker 1: we gonna hit it hard. It's heavy that's going on.
Speaker 2: This is it?
Speaker 3: What about you? Miss condo.
Speaker 1: Honestly, my goal saying for the business was just never
Speaker 1: would have made it. I mean it was I was
Speaker 1: just trying to save the business. January was so business
Speaker 1: wise fraught with is we gonna make it? Because the
Speaker 1: year was so hard, and we had like almost no
Speaker 1: month of emergency saving and we had one month of
Speaker 1: emergency savings left. Everything was going down, Like one of
Speaker 1: my businesses were down over forty percent. The other one
Speaker 1: was just dragging the Bunjanista was just dragging January. I mean,
Speaker 1: December was dismal, and so my main focus in January
Speaker 1: was just if we can get a head up of water.
Speaker 1: So we hit January hard and we did, thankfully. And
Speaker 1: so personally Rathie, had I bought the condo, had I
Speaker 1: closed on it, I feel like I close on the
Speaker 1: condo maybe the end of twenty twenty three, I think,
Speaker 1: or maybe I closed in the beginning of twenty one.
Speaker 1: It was such a whirlwind, if I'm being honest, so
Speaker 1: I believe that already closed on the condo. I feel
Speaker 1: like I was letting the person who lived there before
Speaker 1: lived there for a few months. So you know, she
Speaker 1: paid me the carrying costs because you know she I
Speaker 1: guess I don't know where she was moving. So my
Speaker 1: personal goals were as far as financial, were to like
Speaker 1: create a budget, to you know, to renovate the condom.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure I blew past it. At some point,
Speaker 1: you know, you just stop counting and like, eh, just
Speaker 1: buy it. Here's my card. So I did not stick
Speaker 1: to budget, but I'm not mad at it.
Speaker 3: And so it looks so stunning. Think it looks so good.
Speaker 1: To like that was one of looks good.
Speaker 2: It's so good.
Speaker 1: Was to enjoy the money I worked so hard to make.
Speaker 1: That was one of my goals because everybody knows I'm
Speaker 1: a bit of a mice Carl Cheapy and I told myself, Tiffany,
Speaker 1: you know, you don't spend a lot of money. And
Speaker 1: my sister Tracy and I have this, like we have
Speaker 1: this funny line that we say to each other, like
Speaker 1: when we're going to spend money in ways that are
Speaker 1: not quote unquote traditionally responsible, what is the money for?
Speaker 1: You know? So she'll say, like, you know, like you know,
Speaker 1: I'll say, like, oh, you know, we should get super eats.
Speaker 1: You know, and maybe like two rolls of sushi is
Speaker 1: like fifty bucks, and it's like that's a lot because
Speaker 1: we don't feel like picking it up. And she's like, girl,
Speaker 1: what is the money for? You know? And so many
Speaker 1: like enjoyment and so I have. I'm proud of myself
Speaker 1: that I can't balance that though, Yes that I bounce, yes,
Speaker 1: because you know me, like I didn't have balance. On
Speaker 1: the other side, I'm like, no deb no overspending, no this,
Speaker 1: no that, no this, you know. And then the other
Speaker 1: side is like, you know, you get to enjoy, you
Speaker 1: get to create a beautiful place where you want to live.
Speaker 1: So I say, all in all, with this halfway through
Speaker 1: the year plus, I'm kind of where I wanted to be.
Speaker 1: I definitely said I wanted to start to trade this
Speaker 1: year and lean into that. I have not, so that's
Speaker 1: probably yeah, that I really I mean I started a
Speaker 1: little bit because I took my friend Terry's course. I'm
Speaker 1: just so scared. I don't know why, what's going on?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you were gonna, I remember that.
Speaker 3: Now you were gonna do it alongside Yes, the people
Speaker 3: who signed up for Terry's challenge.
Speaker 4: So when we just talked to Terry this week I
Speaker 4: did and so I took the class. I took the
Speaker 4: course and I did some of the simulations. I'm like
Speaker 4: afraid to actually jump in, jump in. I think I'm
Speaker 4: still holding on to that time that my first investing
Speaker 4: remember with Jake the Thief, my first investing jumbo when
Speaker 4: I was in my twenties and like I lost everything.
Speaker 4: So I think I'm still carrying that, like that fear
Speaker 4: alongside me of like really jumping in and moving beyond
Speaker 4: just the learning and the practicing to the doing.
Speaker 1: Like I don't trust myself almost, But so that's where
Speaker 1: I am half way through the year, really try and
Speaker 1: I would really love to end the year with taking
Speaker 1: some trades for real, even if it's just ten hours,
Speaker 1: just to show myself see you can do it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. State farm agents are small business owners too, so
Speaker 3: they know how to help you choose personalized policies that
Speaker 3: fit your needs, like a good neighbor State farm is
Speaker 3: there talk to your local agent today? Gosh, I mean
Speaker 3: it's like that mind block. So when you have that fear,
Speaker 3: like is it something that when you you can log
Speaker 3: onto the site like what's your what's your brokerage? That
Speaker 3: you're using to trade a trade a trade. So when
Speaker 3: you get there, have you like looked at something to purchase?
Speaker 2: You know? Is it that you just get stuck?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think each thing has a simulation. Is a
Speaker 1: sinker swim, there's a simulation I've been using. Yeah, think, yeah,
Speaker 1: think a swim, and so I've used it. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so when I go on, even though obviously I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna be trading with one hundred thousand dollars out of
Speaker 1: the game, what comes up in my head is like,
Speaker 1: what if you make a mistake. This is real money.
Speaker 1: What if you make a mistake? Even though if I
Speaker 1: lose two three hundred dollars, it's not going to put
Speaker 1: me in a bad financial state. I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: like this compounding, like snowball that like two hundred least
Speaker 1: is twenty least to twenty at least to two hundred
Speaker 1: thousand at leasta you're on the street again.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like it's almost like you're thinking of it,
Speaker 3: like when you go to Vegas and if you place
Speaker 3: a losing bet and then you just keep digging yourself
Speaker 3: in deeper to get out. However, like, what are some
Speaker 3: facts like can we check the facts on that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks, you get doctor Green, look at doctor Man. Yes,
Speaker 1: you're right.
Speaker 3: Wait, you know what, I just did my emotion regulation
Speaker 3: homework from group therapy my DDT shout out to dialectical
Speaker 3: behavioral therapy, y'all it is that girl. But yeah, checking
Speaker 3: the facts is so important and I'm just like, so,
Speaker 3: let's sit with that. Do you think you're going to fail?
Speaker 3: But what's the reality. So let's say the worst happens,
Speaker 3: you invest five hundred dollars and I lose it. But
Speaker 3: what does that mean in trading? Like you lose it
Speaker 3: because the stock value plummets.
Speaker 1: Yes, so let's just say, like you, you know, buy
Speaker 1: a stock at it, like you know, it's it's five
Speaker 1: hundred dollars a share and you're hoping that's going to
Speaker 1: go up to five fifty, but it goes down to
Speaker 1: two fifty and you're like, yikes, you know what I
Speaker 1: put in? I lost? You know, like what I put in?
Speaker 2: And what is a rule?
Speaker 3: Does Terry have like a rule around like when to
Speaker 3: sell a loser? You know?
Speaker 1: She also has like you could do these stock losses basically,
Speaker 1: so you could even say, if it gets to this
Speaker 1: job abandoned ship, so you don't actually have to go down, down, down,
Speaker 1: So that's that is.
Speaker 3: In place, so there's no way you'd lose everything. Also,
Speaker 3: if you invest in Apple share, it's never going to
Speaker 3: hit zero. Yeah, very likely to very unlikely to hit zero.
Speaker 1: I think what's really I don't is a fact of
Speaker 1: money that we're like now that we're talking through it,
Speaker 1: I think my fear is not so much about the
Speaker 1: loss of money. It is about proving to myself. See
Speaker 1: I told you didn't know how to do it, just
Speaker 1: like before, you know, like you know, like see you know,
Speaker 1: like you're not too far off from that twenty five
Speaker 1: year old Tiffany that made those big, big, big bets
Speaker 1: on yourself and you know when it came to investing
Speaker 1: and you messed up everything. So I think it's like,
Speaker 1: if you mess up this small thing, it's an indicative
Speaker 1: of like you'll make bigger mistakes in investing. Better to
Speaker 1: say we're say where it's safe, like almost like I'm
Speaker 1: afraid that if I have a loss, it proves to
Speaker 1: me that I can't do this, I can't invest in
Speaker 1: this way, and it's better for me not to know
Speaker 1: whether that's true or not, and so that that's what
Speaker 1: like I'm struggling with. Like this, the self talk I'm
Speaker 1: telling myself is you don't know how to actively invest.
Speaker 1: You know that you're not capable, you don't know how.
Speaker 1: You already made a big mistake. And if you do
Speaker 1: start to actively invest, even if you do well at first,
Speaker 1: you're probably going to make a huge mistake and lose
Speaker 1: all of the games you've done with budgetets in your business.
Speaker 1: You know that.
Speaker 3: Okay, well that just took a huge because wait, I
Speaker 3: missed the part where you said you were going to
Speaker 3: invest your budget needs to money. I know you were
Speaker 3: going to invest like your business fund.
Speaker 1: I know I did, but I just it won't. That's
Speaker 1: that's why I lead to. I lead to like one
Speaker 1: thing means everything.
Speaker 2: M Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean it's like teaching Rio to ride his bike
Speaker 3: without the training wheels and he fell and I was like, yeah,
Speaker 3: you're gonna fall again, So definitely don't ride that bike anymore.
Speaker 3: You know, do you think that was good advice?
Speaker 1: You screwed it up.
Speaker 2: You're gonna screw it up again.
Speaker 1: Know that that's what practice is.
Speaker 3: Exactly, And I think the practice will build your confidence. Yeah,
Speaker 3: And like that five And it's like I also would
Speaker 3: say the fact is that twenty How old were you
Speaker 3: when that guy scammed you twenty five thousand dollars? How
Speaker 3: old are you now?
Speaker 1: I'm twenty forty five this year, I know.
Speaker 3: So twenty years. You haven't learned something in twenty years?
Speaker 1: I know?
Speaker 3: Also, who else is? Who else do you know right now?
Speaker 2: Who's twenty? Supergirl? I mean she's not quite twenty, No.
Speaker 1: She's seventeen, but she turned to eighteen this year, so
Speaker 1: close enough.
Speaker 3: Like what would you say to yourself? I'm sure you
Speaker 3: have talked to yourself at twenty like that woman, the
Speaker 3: young woman who thought she was like doing something with
Speaker 3: all this money and then got scammed? Like have you
Speaker 3: forgiven her?
Speaker 1: Maybe that's what it is. Maybe I'm just like just
Speaker 1: I mean, what's for you? Why didn't you ask for help?
Speaker 1: Because I thought that you know, that's what it is.
Speaker 1: I at that time, you know, when you're twenty, swore
Speaker 1: you know everything. And I know my dad was a
Speaker 1: whole CFO and an accountant and had his master's and
Speaker 1: finally everything. I didn't tell him anything because.
Speaker 2: Girl, I know best.
Speaker 1: I didn't ask for help and I just wonder why
Speaker 1: didn't she ask for help? There's a level. I think
Speaker 1: what it is is that there's a level of arrogance
Speaker 1: that comes with young people that like I can do it,
Speaker 1: and I guess I'm like wanting. I'm the opposite of
Speaker 1: that now where I'm like, oh, I can't do it.
Speaker 1: I can't do it. So I would tell her that, like, one,
Speaker 1: you should have asked for help, but two he was
Speaker 1: a liar, a cheater, scammer, Like that doesn't give anybody
Speaker 1: a right to cheat and scam me just because you
Speaker 1: didn't ask for help and scammer, Yeah, profession because I
Speaker 1: found out later. I mean like literally, he's tried by
Speaker 1: the federal government. Like when I looked up his name,
Speaker 1: he has a very unique his name is not Jake,
Speaker 1: he's a very unique names. When I looked him up,
Speaker 1: I said, wow, not the United States government literally taking
Speaker 1: him to court. So this is a person who, even
Speaker 1: if I did know, this is a professional, professional scammer.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, think about everyone who invested with Bernie Sanders
Speaker 3: or any other Ponzi scheme runner. Those were intelligent people,
Speaker 3: like I mean not just intelligent, but like had we're
Speaker 3: already extremely wealthy, and they were they were conned, you
Speaker 3: know in that situation, and I think that shame around it,
Speaker 3: like you just don't want it to stop you from
Speaker 3: like it's not fair. It's like he doesn't get to
Speaker 3: rob you of this opportunity. It's almost like you have
Speaker 3: given that person a little bit of power. But in
Speaker 3: this situation, another fact is that, well, you're not investing
Speaker 3: in someone's what.
Speaker 2: Did he want you to invest in? Was it a
Speaker 2: business or something.
Speaker 1: Some commodities, like to purchase things that he was going
Speaker 1: to sell leader in some shops. So it's not that
Speaker 1: at all.
Speaker 2: That were like unregulated.
Speaker 3: You didn't see any of the reports. But now you're
Speaker 3: like we're talking about like blue chip stocks potentially like
Speaker 3: an Apple. These people you can read their filings, you
Speaker 3: can read there the news about them. It is a
Speaker 3: lot more transparent. You're not like you're the one in
Speaker 3: the driver's seat too, Like it's not like you're trading
Speaker 3: a you're not in trusting a financial advisor and investment
Speaker 3: advisor to trade your money for you, Like you're the
Speaker 3: one in control. You can see where it's going now.
Speaker 1: I see Terry told me because I told her, like
Speaker 1: all my fears she told me, like at least six
Speaker 1: months just trade, you know, the paper trading. See what
Speaker 1: it feels like to lose some, win some. So that way,
Speaker 1: you know, you start to She's like, I just want
Speaker 1: you to get your muscle memory together where you're like,
Speaker 1: I'm actually in control of this that like like I
Speaker 1: know that I think it was there was a huge
Speaker 1: dip in the market not too long ago, and she
Speaker 1: was like, you know, but I have my stop losses
Speaker 1: in place where it's like, oh, if it goes to here,
Speaker 1: not that far, don't take it that far. And so
Speaker 1: what I do like is when I see Terry, I
Speaker 1: love the fact that there is a lot of autonomy
Speaker 1: in her income. Like we know how it is with business.
Speaker 1: People think with business that we out here like ow,
Speaker 1: I tell my business give me money and she gives it.
Speaker 1: This is like I'm sorry, you better talk to me
Speaker 1: nice and funally. And so what I do like that
Speaker 1: I see with Terry that there is more of with
Speaker 1: enough research. Obviously nothing is guaranteed. With enough research. She
Speaker 1: follows like a handful of stocks that she can say,
Speaker 1: you know what, I can tell the stock because the
Speaker 1: last five six years I've been researching it. If I
Speaker 1: put my money here in a day or two, I
Speaker 1: should get that money plus some back. She took a
Speaker 1: trade not too long ago. She would two hundred thousand
Speaker 1: and then got nine hundred thousand back, and she was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: but that wasn't just like oh I saw it today.
Speaker 1: She said, this is a stock that I've gotten to
Speaker 1: know very very very very very well, and I knew
Speaker 1: it's in denounce and ups and downs, and so I
Speaker 1: like that thought of like there is on top of
Speaker 1: my business because I love doing that. I have a
Speaker 1: little more autonomy on how much money I'm able to
Speaker 1: make for myself without having to wait for my you know,
Speaker 1: the business ebbs and flows and people who I work with,
Speaker 1: And I want that autonomy to be able to say,
Speaker 1: you know, like a part of my income comes from
Speaker 1: a place that I have more control over.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think that we or I don't know.
Speaker 3: It feels like to me, you've gotten to like the
Speaker 3: heart of why you're feeling that way. Now it's just
Speaker 3: about the action.
Speaker 1: So what is like, what's the next step, what's.
Speaker 2: The what's the action?
Speaker 3: So you're in you've taken Terry's course already, or is
Speaker 3: it like you've done.
Speaker 1: All taking it. So like I take like you know,
Speaker 1: a court, and then I do whatever the homework. I
Speaker 1: take course with the homework. I think the next step.
Speaker 1: I think what I need is quite honestly, like a partner,
Speaker 1: like someone to do it alongside me, because I need
Speaker 1: someone like, you know, it's like going to the gym.
Speaker 1: I need someone to be like, oh, either once a
Speaker 1: week and once every two weeks to kind of check
Speaker 1: in and be like okay, knowing, Oh damn, I got
Speaker 1: to get on the phone Mandy, and I have to
Speaker 1: have done that you know, that module and try that thing.
Speaker 1: Mm hm.
Speaker 3: So ies she have within the program? Is there like
Speaker 3: a communility structure too?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so there is a community. I just haven't like.
Speaker 1: It's the same reason why I don't have a personal
Speaker 1: trainer because I'm like, damn, I don't want anybody to
Speaker 1: hold me accountable. But I'm like, damn, I need someone
Speaker 1: to hold me account of play. So I need to
Speaker 1: pick And my sister Carol, like she really is really
Speaker 1: like good at investing.
Speaker 3: I was not to say, what about that sister who
Speaker 3: wants to who's like an investor?
Speaker 1: It's Carol. She's like really good girl. She bought Tesla
Speaker 1: when it was thirty dollars a share. She tried to
Speaker 1: tell us that's how she paid for her wedding. She
Speaker 1: was like, there's this company called Tesla because she's an engineer.
Speaker 1: It is so exciting. We were like, she told us
Speaker 1: for two years. I can't remember how much she put.
Speaker 1: I think she put like fifteen hundred dollars in and
Speaker 1: got back like forty thousand dollars and she showed her
Speaker 1: shares and that's how she and her had paid for
Speaker 1: their wedding. And I was like, wow, why did you
Speaker 1: tell me? She's like I did for two years? I
Speaker 1: told the group chat.
Speaker 2: So anyway, so now what is she doing?
Speaker 3: She wanted to do this with you, you know, trade.
Speaker 1: She does, but like light you know, but I should
Speaker 1: ask her, like Carol, let's let's check in, like you know,
Speaker 1: maybe twice a month and say we're going to do
Speaker 1: this together. I need someone who is going to hold
Speaker 1: me accountable for real, for real, because you know, you
Speaker 1: be telling people and they're like yeah, yeah, but then
Speaker 1: you know you forget, they forget. Everybody forgets.
Speaker 3: Do you want me to do it with you?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: I want to ask me. I mean you kind of
Speaker 2: have to ask me was.
Speaker 1: I was like, no, wadys, yes, I would like somebody.
Speaker 3: No, I think I have the bandwidth I think I
Speaker 3: do and what I will I will definitely commit to
Speaker 3: do in the thinker swim with you.
Speaker 2: With some faune Yes, okay, okay.
Speaker 3: Be my swimming coach swimming.
Speaker 1: I'm okay.
Speaker 2: So what do I need to do?
Speaker 3: We need to get the course.
Speaker 1: Yes, I will get you the course and give me
Speaker 1: I think twice a month, maybe every other week we
Speaker 1: can decide cadence. But I feel like every other.
Speaker 2: Week we already meet like every week.
Speaker 1: That's true. Yeah, but as far as like we should
Speaker 1: you know what well? I want you to like, want
Speaker 1: you like log in and look to see, okay, how
Speaker 1: long are the course? So that way, because I don't
Speaker 1: want weekly to feel overwhelmed. We can certainly check in
Speaker 1: every week if we wanted to, but I think every
Speaker 1: other week maybe it's like we should have a module
Speaker 1: done so we don't feel so overwhelmed, you know, but
Speaker 1: we can look like once you have access to log
Speaker 1: and I want you to look to see like, oh okay,
Speaker 1: maybe this is once a month whatever, and then we'll
Speaker 1: just walk through together and do the homework together. But
Speaker 1: I think like tentatively having a module done every other week,
Speaker 1: although we can check in verbally weekly about what do
Speaker 1: you think about this? What do you think about that?
Speaker 1: You know, like, let's just do that intentive. I'm excited
Speaker 1: because I need someone because Carol is like me. I'm
Speaker 1: like maybe maybe you know, like, but I need someone
Speaker 1: who is more strict with the I thought. We said
Speaker 1: every other Friday, we're having this chat where you at
Speaker 1: you know, yes, yeah.
Speaker 2: I can do that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because also I what makes me excited about it.
Speaker 3: It's like the idea of especially after a difficult year
Speaker 3: where I wasn't able to like be the business like
Speaker 3: I didn't have the business mojo, like to have another
Speaker 3: tool in the toolbox to say, if times are tough,
Speaker 3: I can make something happen that feels like more resilience
Speaker 3: to me.
Speaker 2: And I like her.
Speaker 1: Yes and low key. We can always be like, let's
Speaker 1: bring Terry on for everyone else.
Speaker 5: A k A s to be like, so we have Pence,
Speaker 5: can you do it? Let's stupid, I know that sweet
Speaker 5: She didn't say yes, she would obviously. I love that
Speaker 5: she's such a quiet, adorable like Southern bell millionaire. They
Speaker 5: don't even they don't even get they wouldn't even guess.
Speaker 5: You put Terry in a line of the people, and
Speaker 5: because of like the way we are, like in just society,
Speaker 5: like no one would pick her out of the line.
Speaker 2: She's like a multi millionaire.
Speaker 1: She's I mean literally making a million dollars in the day.
Speaker 1: It's like, do you want to do? You want to
Speaker 1: sit here, honeymoon?
Speaker 3: I love that though, just quiet and she calls herself
Speaker 3: really nerdy and techy and into the needs, and I
Speaker 3: love that.
Speaker 1: I fool yes, oh yeah, so excited maybe.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, yeah, give me the access I'm gonna be
Speaker 3: and yeah, I'm going to be doing like a little
Speaker 3: bit of like a solo retreat. So this is actually
Speaker 3: a good time. I can do all the things I
Speaker 3: can't do when I don't have all of my brain
Speaker 3: here because I share it with two other humans.
Speaker 1: Honestly, I think we just modeled really good behavior. So
Speaker 1: as you guys are doing your check in, you know, one,
Speaker 1: identify kind of like what you wanted to do in
Speaker 1: the beginning of the year. Identify where you are now
Speaker 1: without judgment, and now like you should be here you know,
Speaker 1: just oh I did say I kind of wanted to
Speaker 1: do that, and here's why I am now. Oh some
Speaker 1: things I did do, some things I did additional, some
Speaker 1: things I never got to, some things I've regressed on.
Speaker 1: And then ask yourself kind of like what's holding you
Speaker 1: back like Mandy just did for me? And what would
Speaker 1: you need in order to move forward? Is it support,
Speaker 1: like you know, like an accountability partner like me and Mandy.
Speaker 1: Is it a course, is it a book? You know,
Speaker 1: whatever that is, you know, like identifying what that is.
Speaker 1: And I suggest you don't do this alone because sometimes
Speaker 1: you can't see yourself, like Mandy was so good at
Speaker 1: pulling out out this stuff for me. Maybe do this
Speaker 1: with your bestie, your sister, your your partner, your hubby,
Speaker 1: your wife, whoever and so, and then like lock and
Speaker 1: a tactical thing you're gonna do, because one thing to
Speaker 1: be like, oh, thank you so much, Manny for helping
Speaker 1: me see where I was stuck, and then I would
Speaker 1: just continue to be stuck. But it's like no, no,
Speaker 1: what can we actually do? You know, like, oh, now
Speaker 1: she and I are, she's going to hold me accountable.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold her accountable. And now it's like, no,
Speaker 1: I can see movement forward because like it's not just me.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna be like Chad, I don't want
Speaker 1: I want to hear manny about let me go ahead
Speaker 1: and do this, do this module because I want to
Speaker 1: make it out. So I'm so excited.
Speaker 3: But I think it's I know I can be vulnerable
Speaker 3: with you, like I don't have any I don't have
Speaker 3: any self consciousness around, Like, girl, what does this mean again?
Speaker 2: What's this girl?
Speaker 1: The Googles is my friend? Okay Googles?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I am excited. Yeah, this is great and I
Speaker 3: love that we can coach each other. We're professional like
Speaker 3: coaches in our live coaches, but we still need some
Speaker 3: hell yeah, we still need some support. So okay, exciting.
Speaker 3: Should we take a little break.
Speaker 1: We should, so brown break, we'd be back.
Speaker 3: We'll do a brown boost brown break. And then oh,
Speaker 3: I wanted to do a call to action for y'all
Speaker 3: be a fam what like do your midyear check in?
Speaker 3: Like what is the thing that you wanted to do
Speaker 3: at the beginning of the year, how's it going? And
Speaker 3: then like send us a DM even if it's just
Speaker 3: to say the.
Speaker 2: Words out loud.
Speaker 3: Of here's where I want to be, and then tell
Speaker 3: us what you're going to do, like what do you
Speaker 3: think has held you back? What do you think can
Speaker 3: propel you forward? And let's have that uncomfortable sort of
Speaker 3: dialogue and then hopefully that will lead you to like
Speaker 3: taking a step toward whatever goal you had.
Speaker 1: I love ooh and you know what, Actually I created
Speaker 1: a goal sheet based upon my book Get It with
Speaker 1: Money that was giving away for free. I forgot. If

Speaker 1: It's called the gate good with get Good with goal Chot.
Speaker 1: I don't know what it's called, but it's a really
Speaker 1: great goal sheet. It's like it's totally free, and so
Speaker 1: it helps, Like if you can't help yourself to identify
Speaker 1: the financial places that you want to move forward, just
Speaker 1: d m me the world goals at the bunch aissa
Speaker 1: on I g and I will d m you like
Speaker 1: you know, the goal sheet. It's not even a sheet.

Speaker 1: Break Are you gonna boost? Are you gonna break? What
Speaker 1: you're gonna do?
Speaker 2: Would you go to H?
Speaker 1: Well, I know that, Mandy, that you have a little
Speaker 1: bit of a deeper boost. I mean I got a
Speaker 1: real light boost. So can I go first?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: Light boost? So my light boost is going to be
Speaker 1: laughing gas girl. Here's it legally, So I yesterday. I
Speaker 1: have dental anxiety. I did not know it was actually
Speaker 1: a thing. I mean, I knew I felt anxious when
Speaker 1: I went to the dentist, but I didn't realize it
Speaker 1: was like a thing thing until like some years back.
Speaker 1: I saw a guy with one of my friends I
Speaker 1: follow on Facebook had posted that his dental anxiety had
Speaker 1: kept me from the kept him from the dentist for
Speaker 1: like twenty years, and his teeth were like falling apart.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about no cleaning, no nothing. And he found
Speaker 1: a dentist I want to say, in Brooklyn that specialized
Speaker 1: in people with dental anxiety, and they literally put him
Speaker 1: to sleep to do all his dental work. He had
Speaker 1: to go for like two or three weeks straight. And
Speaker 1: I was like, wait, dental anxiety. I mean, I thought
Speaker 1: we all just hated the dentists, but there are people
Speaker 1: who actually experience more anxiety than others. And I realized
Speaker 1: I had not been going. I mean, I take care
Speaker 1: of my teeth, I brush, I do all this stuff,
Speaker 1: but I was not going for cleanings. I was not,
Speaker 1: you know, And I didn't say I wasn't really getting
Speaker 1: a ton of cavities or anything like that, but still,
Speaker 1: I'm like, girl, you need to go. So I once
Speaker 1: I saw that post, I googled dentists for anxious people.
Speaker 1: I'm like, good, that's the thing, and it was. And
Speaker 1: I found a place in New Jersey hack and Sack
Speaker 1: called Designing Smiles, I think it's called. And so I went,
Speaker 1: and I freaking loved that place because so on the surface,
Speaker 1: it's just a regular dentist, but they specialized in people
Speaker 1: with dental anxiety. So you go, there are three levels
Speaker 1: of things they can do for you. So one, my
Speaker 1: last dentist before you used to take forever on my
Speaker 1: cleanings and was a little rough. That almost I was like,
Speaker 1: I can't come back here. They are really click quick
Speaker 1: with the cleaning, like they're thorough, but they specialize in
Speaker 1: being really fast because they know you're anxious. And they're
Speaker 1: really gentle because that's one of the things that you know,
Speaker 1: like that's drilling, screeping's like and they have levels. They're like,
Speaker 1: I bring my headphones and I can listen to our
Speaker 1: Like I listened to our podcast or music or whatever
Speaker 1: while they're cleaning, and so like like loud enough to
Speaker 1: kind of cover the drill, but not so loud. That
Speaker 1: I can't hear instructions from them. So that level one
Speaker 1: is bring your headphones to zone out. Level two is
Speaker 1: so I had a I did end up having a
Speaker 1: cavity because I had not been to the dentist since
Speaker 1: before d'ell passed away. I just stopped doing everything. So
Speaker 1: I had a cavity, and I had one of my
Speaker 1: crowns had to be replaced because after eight ten years
Speaker 1: you got to get a new crown. And so I
Speaker 1: was like, huh, the headphones are not going to be enough.
Speaker 1: They're like, well, we have laughing gas, and I was like,
Speaker 1: tell me more, and like basically it just calms you down,
Speaker 1: and I said okay. And then the next level, if
Speaker 1: you are really really anxious, like shaking, they can actually
Speaker 1: put you to sleep. Putting someone to sleep is never
Speaker 1: idea in general, just because to put someone to sleep
Speaker 1: you also have to wake them up, and there's always
Speaker 1: a chance that like you know, you don't so, but
Speaker 1: that is for like the next level.
Speaker 2: Jesus, Yeah, well that's just in general anesthesia.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like they could just put you to sleep, put
Speaker 1: you to sleep, and so I said, okay, I don't
Speaker 1: think I need that, and they don't. They don't jump there.
Speaker 1: You have to kind of like progress up.
Speaker 2: So more expensive too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So for the laughing gas. So I got the
Speaker 1: two teeth done. For the laughing gas. It was an
Speaker 1: additional one hundred and twenty five dollars. I was like, pet, okay,
Speaker 1: when I tell you Mandy Show they put the little
Speaker 1: like nolse on your nose. That eleven gas hit. So
Speaker 1: leven gas feels like, you know, right before you're about
Speaker 1: to fall asleep, you're in this hazy dream state where
Speaker 1: you're like, oh my belt, it's a good dum, but
Speaker 1: you're not quite asleep. Girl. That laughing gas hit.
Speaker 2: I was like, what I feel like?
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know smoke weed, but I feel like,
Speaker 1: is this what the weed smokers were feeling like? I
Speaker 1: was liked about the tea. I mean, he was drilling,
Speaker 1: he was all the things, and I was like, chat,
Speaker 1: go ahead, go ahead, for right, And that was so chill.
Speaker 1: So this is how anxious I get. So my The
Speaker 1: last time I went to the doctor, my blood pressure
Speaker 1: was one sixteen over eighty, which is like good, we
Speaker 1: went perfect, really good, sure please. I went to the
Speaker 1: dentist the next day. They take your blood pressure at
Speaker 1: this place. She was like, you're one forty six over.
Speaker 1: Oh my my.
Speaker 3: I was.
Speaker 1: And meanwhile, I didn't feel like I was anxious, but
Speaker 1: it was obvious my body was having a reaction because
Speaker 1: I was. And she said, you really do have Dentzel anxiety.
Speaker 1: I was like, cause I told her my doctor just yesterday,
Speaker 1: I just went perfect blood pressure. She's like, okay, And
Speaker 1: so I got my two teeth done, I had my
Speaker 1: headphones on, I listened to a podcast and I had
Speaker 1: the laughing ass and when I tell you, the level
Speaker 1: of anxiety I felt was like a two. And so
Speaker 1: he was done. He was like, you were a perfect patient.
Speaker 1: I was like, huh. So it takes about ten minutes
Speaker 1: for it to wear off once they take it off,
Speaker 1: and I tell you, I tell you, I tell you.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, now I'm not as anxious because one,
Speaker 1: I don't get it for cleaning, so I don't need it,
Speaker 1: but I'm not as anxious to go, and I call it.
Speaker 1: I was calling one of my friends who gets really anxious,
Speaker 1: and I told her I would go with her, but
Speaker 1: I told her the experience and so, so these are
Speaker 1: one of the things like like what is the money
Speaker 1: for this additional expense was worth it. The one twenty
Speaker 1: five was worth it on top of what I had
Speaker 1: to pay for dental, and you know, I had dental insurance,
Speaker 1: but I like capped out on like my deductible or whatever.
Speaker 1: And so yeah, so it just was worth to spend.
Speaker 1: And so I just encourage anyone you know that if
Speaker 1: you have any sort of anything medically, you know that
Speaker 1: sometimes we tell ourselves this is just how it has
Speaker 1: to go, and that's not necessarily true. Like I didn't
Speaker 1: know there were dentists for people who were anxious, and
Speaker 1: I'm so glad that I found some one, Yeah, because
Speaker 1: like I said, they're great, and yeah, like it's a question.
Speaker 3: Should just be a dentist for anxious people?
Speaker 1: I mean, and it's black, only by a woman who's
Speaker 1: started it. So there's like my dentist was a black
Speaker 1: doctor my and so I love that too. You know,
Speaker 1: we'd love to support the blacks round here, which is great.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just worth the price, worth the extra expense.
Speaker 1: I know everybody can't afford it, That's not what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: But for me, you know, when people say what is
Speaker 1: the money for? This is one of those areas where
Speaker 1: I was like, I know, it's an extra hundred twenty
Speaker 1: five dollars, but because extra twenty five dollars, one hundred
Speaker 1: twenty five dollars meant that I don't avoid this for
Speaker 1: another six months, which means, you know, a cavity could
Speaker 1: become a root canal. So all of a sudden, you know,
Speaker 1: you get yourself, a two hundred dollars for a cavity
Speaker 1: is a fifteen hundred dollars two thousand dollars root canal.
Speaker 1: And so in the long run, the one twenty five
Speaker 1: allows me not to have to spend whatever one thousand
Speaker 1: plus dollars to do doo deeper work, you know, so.
Speaker 3: And the requires across which is another eight to ten years,
Speaker 3: and the girl plays that girl, so I know it was.
Speaker 1: Worth the cost. So yes, I mean, so we talking
Speaker 1: about laughing as I'm talking about at the dentist, not
Speaker 1: at home.
Speaker 2: But it was great, you know.
Speaker 3: In the midst of all my like really really tough
Speaker 3: last few months. I dragged myself to my doctor for
Speaker 3: my annual physical and that alone gives me so much anxiety,
Speaker 3: and I was like looking for every reason not to go.
Speaker 3: I ended up self sabotaging to where I had both
Speaker 3: kids home with me that day and I was like, oh,
Speaker 3: well I can't, but I anyway, I forced myself to go,
Speaker 3: and I think I talked about that, but I got
Speaker 3: my results back and my cholesterol is not that cute,
Speaker 3: you guys. It was apparently it was too eighty six
Speaker 3: last December, and I like didn't comprehend. I didn't really
Speaker 3: like it didn't sink in for me. But anyway, it
Speaker 3: went down this time, okay, but it's still like in
Speaker 3: the high range is two thirty six okay, and I
Speaker 3: and especially after everything my dad has been going through,
Speaker 3: I was like, Okay, it makes sense that I'm not
Speaker 3: at my healthy estate right now, but at least I
Speaker 3: went and now I have the information. Yeah, but that
Speaker 3: anxiety can stop so many people from getting the info
Speaker 3: that could make them healthier.
Speaker 1: Me. I'm like, if I'm gonna spend money like for me,
Speaker 1: I went saying, Mandy, I went to I had not
Speaker 1: been to a doctor since before Darrell passed away, because
Speaker 1: I just kind of gave up obviously. So it was crazy.
Speaker 1: I was in the doctor's She's like, I see here.
Speaker 1: You haven't been here in two years. I had a
Speaker 1: doctor before she got cancer, and she just was not
Speaker 1: available obviously, and so I was looking for a new one.
Speaker 1: And then Drell passed away and then I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm not doing none of this stuff. So when I
Speaker 1: got back, I did not expect to be crying at
Speaker 1: the doctor's office. And she's like, why haven't you been here?
Speaker 1: I was like, well, I know. She was so sweet.
Speaker 1: So I love my new doctor. My sister suggested her,
Speaker 1: and she's like, well, you're back now, and I'm glad
Speaker 1: you're taking care of yourself. I too, got my results
Speaker 1: from my chart or whatever, and I'm vitamin D deficient,
Speaker 1: which I heard is very common. Same th so I
Speaker 1: have to figure out, like what's a good way I
Speaker 1: have to I got to ask my.
Speaker 3: Mom to take a supplement.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to take a supplement. And then I
Speaker 1: found out that I am pre diabetic. I was like, wait, Haley, yes,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie I'm a carb and Sweet got
Speaker 1: a choke hold on me.
Speaker 3: It doesn't even matter what your diet is. It's just
Speaker 3: like genetics sometimes.
Speaker 1: Well she said, like, I feel like it is my
Speaker 1: diet because if you can only see the sweet time
Speaker 1: and sleep like, I mean, yeah, so my mom doesn't have,
Speaker 1: my dad doesn't have. So she said it's pretty and
Speaker 1: pretty early stage, you know. So just she's like basically
Speaker 1: Tiffany Monster because I I'm not gonna lie. The last
Speaker 1: few at least maybe the last six months to a year,
Speaker 1: I have just been like, girl, yes, I'll take more
Speaker 1: syrup on my pancake, on top of my thissk, on
Speaker 1: top of my cookie on the side, on top of
Speaker 1: my dessert. You know, You're so funny for i know,
Speaker 1: like ice cream, ice ice cream, And so I was
Speaker 1: just like, so she basically was like, let's see if
Speaker 1: you change your diet, you know, and then let's see
Speaker 1: how what it does to your point. And so those
Speaker 1: are the only two things. Everything else, like, you know,
Speaker 1: she said, your cholesterol actually was excellent. So I was
Speaker 1: proud of myself because I stopped eating fried foods a
Speaker 1: very long time ago. You know, I walk every day
Speaker 1: just about but and she was like, you know, kidney function,
Speaker 1: everything else, every other level was where it should be.
Speaker 1: But she was like, girls, pre diabetes. And I'd heard
Speaker 1: that once you are diabetic, you're always diabetic. You just
Speaker 1: manage it. I don't know.
Speaker 3: No, not necessarily no, because like my dad had weight
Speaker 3: loss surgery a long time ago, and he was officially
Speaker 3: like not diabetic. Okay, So when you have type one diabetes,
Speaker 3: which is the kind that's like you can't control it,
Speaker 3: it's just like you either got it or you don't.
Speaker 3: You can't get rid of that. But yeah, type two,
Speaker 3: type two, you just it's kind of like the idea
Speaker 3: of when a cancer goes into remission, you know, like
Speaker 3: that and go like there could be a time I
Speaker 3: think you always have to be like on alert. But
Speaker 3: your blood sugar level was all your blood sugar levels
Speaker 3: and if you're if they're staying consistently in a healthy range,
Speaker 3: then I would say, I mean I'm not a doctor, obviously,
Speaker 3: but having heard so many doctors, my dad was like
Speaker 3: so adamant every and it was not even really relevant
Speaker 3: to what was happening with him then, but it became
Speaker 3: a point of pride for him to have everyone acknowledge
Speaker 3: he's no longer diabetic. I love that though, And I'm like, okay, Dad, yeah,
Speaker 3: you're not diabetic.
Speaker 2: Sugar is immaculate. He's like, trump, I got.
Speaker 1: A beautiful blood sugar. Oh boy, Well that that I
Speaker 1: told all my business between like my cavity and the
Speaker 1: diabetics beat us. I got a little touch of sugar.
Speaker 1: You know. I know we're gonna be flooded. And I
Speaker 1: don't mind. Girl, if you are a nurse or a doctor, whatever,
Speaker 1: you got some tips for the for the vitamin D.
Speaker 1: I am not a pill swallower, so come with something.
Speaker 1: Is there is there a liquid? No, girl, I cannot.
Speaker 2: Is there the babies a liquid salt?
Speaker 3: There's definitely there's definitely a gummy. I hate gummies.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm a swallow.
Speaker 1: I love see look look at me already. Look I'm
Speaker 1: already sugary gummy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they just like they roll the gummies and sugar.
Speaker 1: Now, I mean it's bad. I'm not gonna lie. I
Speaker 1: feel like I was like addicted to Flintstone's chewabols. I thought,
Speaker 1: let me another one. My Mom's like it's only one
Speaker 1: to day.
Speaker 3: I'm like, see they still up to be diabetics. I mean,
Speaker 3: so there's a multi vitamin.
Speaker 1: I probably shouldn't take a gummy. Scratch that. I don't
Speaker 1: want a gummy because I'm gonna time to be like, well,
Speaker 1: one is better than two, right, so let's go.
Speaker 2: Swallow a pill.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, maybe a liquid supping because because I have
Speaker 1: to take it daily, So maybe like a liquid suffing
Speaker 1: I can put in water or something like that.
Speaker 2: I have one of those.
Speaker 3: I have a cute little pill case now. And it's
Speaker 3: mostly vitamins because I'm I started taking magnesium and B
Speaker 3: twelve I heard it really helps with like mood. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Then and vitamin D on top of that, and I
Speaker 3: don't know if it's I don't know, but I'm finally.
Speaker 3: I have been vitamin D deficient for a long time.
Speaker 3: And the doctor's like, so are you taking Yeah? I did,
Speaker 3: finally I'm doing it.
Speaker 1: So yeah, okay, well all right, well are you gonna
Speaker 1: boost upbreak Maddy? Now, like I said, we don't all
Speaker 1: of this.
Speaker 3: We down told all the business. Let me see, well,
Speaker 3: since it's September, I'm gonna boost for September.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 3: Do you hear that?
Speaker 2: Do you hear the rumbling?
Speaker 3: It's the It is the sound of everybody who has
Speaker 3: power in hiring positions returning to the office after the
Speaker 3: holiday the summer season, and they are dusting off their
Speaker 3: keyboards and they are getting back to emails. They are
Speaker 3: getting back on the hiring front, it's just a known
Speaker 3: trend in September. They call it September surge. It's the
Speaker 3: fact that more hiring tends to happen. It doesn't always
Speaker 3: mean that there's like, all of a sudden, there's more jobs.
Speaker 3: I really think it's down to the fact that it's
Speaker 3: just like post September, people get their shit together because
Speaker 3: now everyone's in the mode of like, Okay, we got
Speaker 3: to get these new hires in, We've got to get
Speaker 3: these roles filled, get them in, get them trained. The
Speaker 3: holiday season is coming, like let's go, go go, And
Speaker 3: I think everyone is just more switched on in September.
Speaker 3: So for anyone, and I think a lot right now,
Speaker 3: the data is showing that not no surprise, people at
Speaker 3: work are not quitting like they were a couple of
Speaker 3: years ago. They are feeling like, Okay, let's make this
Speaker 3: work because the job market is like way more competitive.
Speaker 2: There's not as many jobs as there were.
Speaker 3: But it would be really wise, even if you are
Speaker 3: sort of like sheltering in place at your current role,
Speaker 3: it'd be really wise to start getting a little bit
Speaker 3: more active on LinkedIn. If there is something if there
Speaker 3: is some indication that you know, whether you just have
Speaker 3: a gut feeling like ah, there's something off here, I
Speaker 3: want to maybe look at other opportunities, or if you're
Speaker 3: still getting the mixed messages from management about like your
Speaker 3: opportunities for advancement, then this is just a great time
Speaker 3: for anyone to be getting on LinkedIn, making sure your
Speaker 3: profiles in tiptop shape. It's also the season of like
Speaker 3: all the networking events start happening again, and conferences it's
Speaker 3: like popping off. So if you don't have any plans
Speaker 3: for like some kind of professional networking event in September
Speaker 3: or the next few months, I would say plan for
Speaker 3: some because this is just the time when people are
Speaker 3: in the mode of Okay, holidays are coming, let's get
Speaker 3: some stuff done. What else can I say? Update your LinkedIn?
Speaker 3: Of course, yes, dust off your resume, that's always good.
Speaker 3: Think about like setting what kind of goals, Like I
Speaker 3: don't want you to go out there and apply for
Speaker 3: every single thing that you see, but like really specifically
Speaker 3: applied to roles if they speak to you, like if
Speaker 3: they are where you want to go, and then do
Speaker 3: your follow ups, like if you had applied for things
Speaker 3: over the summer and hadn't heard back, like send those
Speaker 3: follow up emails. It may just be that there was
Speaker 3: some kind of pause for all the holidays and the
Speaker 3: vacations and stuff. But take an opportunity to reach back out,
Speaker 3: even reach back out to the recruiters. It's surprising to me,
Speaker 3: like how many people forget about the recruiters who reach
Speaker 3: out to them for opportunities, and they're like, can you
Speaker 3: do a phone screen? Okay, cool, you do a phone screen.
Speaker 3: You don't make it through the first round, and then
Speaker 3: you go about your life. But those recruiters, they keep recruiting,
Speaker 3: and even they may be working for several different firms.
Speaker 3: So even just reaching back out to the recruiters who
Speaker 3: contacted you in the past, let them know that you're open.
Speaker 3: If they're a good recruiter, they're always looking for great talent,
Speaker 3: so this could be a good time to just like
Speaker 3: pop back up on their radar, say hey, hi, tell
Speaker 3: them what you're looking for and see what shakes out.
Speaker 1: That's a really good advice. I didn't realize it was
Speaker 1: September search, Like, I guess that makes sense. You know,
Speaker 1: summertimes a little slow. That really makes sense. So, yes,
Speaker 1: why are you trying to get it. Here's the thing, right,
Speaker 1: because the point of money, I hope you get. That's
Speaker 1: why we call ourselves Brown Ambition is that it's not
Speaker 1: just money. Money is a tool for your holistic better
Speaker 1: life right, your health, your happiness, connection and relationships, career, businesses.
