<v Speaker 1>carpet get some interviews.

0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:20.560

<v Speaker 1>and she's.

0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 2>Always been an inspiration to me.

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 1>I started out in modeling, so to hear her speak

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:44.200
<v Speaker 1>on her journey and just some of the barriers and

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.360
<v Speaker 1>different things she had to breakthrough, that was amazing. The

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 1>cast of girlfriends, I ran into them on the carpet

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:50.920
<v Speaker 1>and had a moment with them.

0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:51.320
<v Speaker 2>Y'all.

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>I was standing in literally the girlfriend's cast united around me,

0:01:57.360 --> 0:02:00.560
<v Speaker 1>not because of me or anything like that, but literally physically,

0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.720
<v Speaker 1>like I'm standing there and it just happened. I felt

0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:06.040

0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 7>of Girlfriends by the way one hundred and seventy two

0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 7>episodes of television that I am so proud of, proud

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:49.880
<v Speaker 7>of what we did.

0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:52.440
<v Speaker 6>I won't be made together and that has still had

0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:56.040
<v Speaker 6>an impact. Thank you, Ebany. It's so crazy with all

0:05:56.040 --> 0:05:59.680
<v Speaker 6>the dishes planking, isn't it. Are you guys with me though?

0:06:00.560 --> 0:06:01.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay?

0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:02.240
<v Speaker 6>Okay?

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:05.960
<v Speaker 7>So thank you Ebany for celebrating our stories and for

0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 7>naming me as Halthbreaker.

0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:12.040
<v Speaker 6>Halthbreaker huh okay.

0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:15.599
<v Speaker 7>Well, it started with Girlfriends. Joan and Carol Clayton put

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:18.440
<v Speaker 7>me on the map. Then I did some stuff, but

0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:22.080
<v Speaker 7>mostly I've feared that maybe I had already peaked because

0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:25.920
<v Speaker 7>the pearly gates of Hollywood did not open after Girlfriends

0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:26.440
<v Speaker 7>the way.

0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:26.920
<v Speaker 6>That I had hoped.

0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:42.800
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, and then King Blackish, And after eight years of

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:44.320
<v Speaker 8>playing a single lawyer.

0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.040
<v Speaker 6>Obsessed with being chosen.

0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:49.719
<v Speaker 7>And having children as Joan, I spent another eight years

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 7>playing a married doctor who literally would not stop having

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:57.800
<v Speaker 7>kids as Bou. What I loved about Bo was that

0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:00.479
<v Speaker 7>her value was anchored in the fullness of her life,

0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:03.240
<v Speaker 7>as opposed to just being a prop in her husband's world.

0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:07.159
<v Speaker 6>Sixteen years of being a lead actress.

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:11.560
<v Speaker 7>On primetime TV archived within Girlfriends and Blackish kind of

0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 7>takes my breath away, especially because I'm only twenty two

0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 7>and while all this was happening, I spent a decade

0:07:18.680 --> 0:07:19.800
<v Speaker 7>building Pattern Beauty.

0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:22.400
<v Speaker 6>As founder, CEO.

0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 7>And owner, I have intentionally built a company which in

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:29.840
<v Speaker 7>which all decisions celebrate the joy.

0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:32.560
<v Speaker 6>And the diversity of black beauty. We are a company

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 6>run by incredible.

0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:38.520
<v Speaker 7>Black women, and after six years on shelves, we have

0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:43.600
<v Speaker 7>grown into a global, multi hundred million dollar premium beauty

0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 7>dram forty seven employees, eleven retail partners, over sixty products

0:07:51.320 --> 0:07:55.680
<v Speaker 7>in hair and now body. Earlier this year, I launched

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:58.520
<v Speaker 7>solo Traveling with Racy Ellis Ross on the Roku channel,

0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:01.440
<v Speaker 7>and I was I need to find how deeply it

0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:06.720
<v Speaker 7>resonated with people like Pattern. This show was my way

0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.000
<v Speaker 7>of filling a gap in how we see ourselves in

0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:09.520
<v Speaker 7>the world.

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 6>The show is an.

0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:14.680
<v Speaker 7>Invitation to experience your life fully on your own terms,

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:16.640
<v Speaker 7>and to choose yourself.

0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 6>Again and again and again.

0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.320
<v Speaker 7>I tell you all of this to say that don't

0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:23.720
<v Speaker 7>I tell you all of this to say, please, do not.

0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:26.800
<v Speaker 6>Wait for something or someone in order to experience all

0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:30.440
<v Speaker 6>that's possible for your life. Dream big and intentionally and

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:33.000
<v Speaker 6>work hard to make those dreams come true.

0:08:33.280 --> 0:08:36.400
<v Speaker 7>And even when they don't go as you had planned

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:42.040
<v Speaker 7>or hoped or wished or as the world had prescribed

0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 7>to you, choose to live joyfully.

0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 1>This is my life philosophy another you know, great of

0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 1>the evening. I love watching Tiana Taylor and everything that

0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:54.880
<v Speaker 1>she's been able to evolve into and do on her own.

0:08:54.920 --> 0:08:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Her story is amazing. I feel like we've grown up

0:08:57.480 --> 0:09:02.360
<v Speaker 1>with her. We've watched her fight silent loud battles and

0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:04.960
<v Speaker 1>man how she come out on top. There is oscar

0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:09.760
<v Speaker 1>conversation around Tianna Taylor for her role in one battle

0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:13.160
<v Speaker 1>in another that is amazing. Think about you know a

0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:15.440
<v Speaker 1>few years ago when Tiana Taylor said, look, I am

0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 1>under so much pressure, I am not appreciated. Things are

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>just not what they need to be. I'm taking a

0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:25.160
<v Speaker 1>break from this industry. And she went and she created

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:28.040
<v Speaker 1>the Aunties, which is her production company, and you know,

0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 1>just really got into her bag. And look where she

0:09:30.640 --> 0:09:33.160
<v Speaker 1>is now. She's been running around doing a bunch of

0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:37.600
<v Speaker 1>different press with her cast from All Things Fair, Kim

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Kardashi and Nisi Nash An amazing stellar cast, but took

0:09:42.360 --> 0:09:45.320
<v Speaker 1>the time, and she said on the stage, y'all, I

0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:46.480
<v Speaker 1>gotta go to class after this.

0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:48.040
<v Speaker 2>You know she's acted.

0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:49.920
<v Speaker 1>She's doing so many different things, so she is working

0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:52.000
<v Speaker 1>her ass off and it's paying off. Let's take a
