My grandmother 72 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 2: is one of my largest supporters and my inspiration. You know, 73 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 2: my grandmother had diabetes. She was the woman that taught 74 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 2: me everything, how to be a lady, how to you know, 75 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: wear my watch on my left hand like things of 76 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 2: that nature, leave my house with my purse like stuff 77 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: like that. And I looked up to her, you know, 78 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 2: she had diabetes, like I said, when I was, you know, 79 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,239 Speaker 2: a child, and then from diabetes, she developed high blood 80 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,919 Speaker 2: pressure from the medicine that she was taking and she 81 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 2: could not keep the weight off of her no matter 82 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: what we did. Exercise, she did that, she went to 83 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: the YMCA, she would go swimming, she would do all 84 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 2: types of things just to help her diet. But the 85 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 2: medication just helped her balloon even though it was helping 86 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: her stay alive. So, you know, my grandmother would say, 87 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: you know, prevention is better than a cure of put 88 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 2: what you put in your body, isn't you know, keeps 89 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 2: you alive, keeps you healthy, or can turn you the 90 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: other way and make you sick. So she wanted us 91 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 2: to take care of our bodies the best way we could, 92 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 2: because you know, she was the example of Okay, I 93 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: didn't take the best care of my body. I had 94 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 2: what I wanted to eat, whether it was sugar or 95 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 2: too much whatever. She enjoyed that type of her life 96 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 2: and because of that, she developed diabetes. And she wanted 97 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: us to know, if you take care of your body, 98 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: it would last longer. You know, you would last, you 99 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: would be on this earth a lot longer. 100 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: Also, such wise words. And I love that she shifted 101 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: her perspective and was able to share that knowledge with 102 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: you all, because I think for many of us, we 103 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: see our elders, like some of the black folks and 104 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: my family, they will eat all the foods and there 105 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: I know some of them are just like I'm just 106 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: gonna eat it. 107 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: I want to eat and I'm just gonna enjoy it. 108 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: But for her to be able to see the effects 109 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: on her body and then share that wisdom with you 110 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: all and impact you in such a great way, that's 111 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: so incredible. And so I have a couple other questions, 112 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: but first we want to talk about your origin story. 113 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: How did you become the Sherris Brown that sits with 114 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: us today. 115 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: I mean, there's so many My story is long. You know, 116 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 2: things have happened life. But for to say that, I, 117 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 2: you know, went to Howard. I wanted to go to 118 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 2: a school where the professors looked like me because I 119 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 2: went to high school in New York and my teachers 120 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 2: were I learned a lot about the Holocaust to say 121 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 2: the least we got you. No, No, I want to 122 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 2: go where my teachers had experienced that I will have 123 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,479 Speaker 2: when I get into the workforce. Now they teach me 124 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 2: what I need to know. So going to how it 125 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 2: was the best decision I think I made in my life. 126 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: And you know, coming from New York work ethic, you know, 127 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: working hard, paying attention in school and things of that nature, 128 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: and having really really good professors who instilled courage, hard 129 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: work and owning your stuff like it was important, own 130 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: your craft, own your art, own anything that you call yours, 131 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 2: your body. You know, be careful. I remember one of 132 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 2: my professors, she would say, you know, when you go 133 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: and take these photographs, you be sure to know who 134 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 2: has control of these photos of you when you go 135 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: out to parties and own your image, you know. So 136 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: that also helped the wheels turn of who is the 137 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: person that she re wants to be and the legacy 138 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: that she wants to leave on earth. And so my 139 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 2: parents were entrepreneurs and they wanted me to be an entrepreneur. 140 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 2: I remember my dad would say to me, and I 141 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 2: think I was like maybe ten or eleven, he would say, 142 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 2: think about a business that you want to start, you know, 143 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 2: and I'm like, okay, Dad, you know Polish. I didn't 144 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: have a clue. But in our household, what was very 145 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 2: important was you know, that was my first experience having 146 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 2: farm to table because my dad grew like tomatoes in 147 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 2: the backyard, green peppers and red peppers and peppermints, and 148 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 2: he was really into earth and taking care of your 149 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: body with instead of medicine. It was full start there, 150 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 2: you know. And then I would then go, you know, 151 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 2: play with my friends school, you develop a cold, and 152 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: it's something like that. Then he would then he implemented 153 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 2: vitamins into our diet. So when he did that, even 154 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: though we did do the bush tea and you know, 155 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 2: all types of other things that came from Jamaica. He 156 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 2: also gave us vitamins and the sniffles went away. Either. 157 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 2: You remember, I remember wanting flintstones and like, Dad, don't forget, 158 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 2: you know, give me my midstones. So, you know, a 159 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,479 Speaker 2: lot of that comes from my story of my childhood, 160 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 2: just remembering how enthusiastic I was wanted to take care 161 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: of my body because of my parents, my grandmother, and 162 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 2: you know, we wanted to put a stamp on the world. 163 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 2: That's the way I knew. How wow that you know. 164 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 3: I think we often underestimate the influence of our family 165 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: when we're little, and how the things that interest us 166 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 3: or the things that we remember from childhood have a 167 00:09:56,200 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 3: huge impact on our adulthood and some of our career paths. 168 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 3: And so schuries tell us what happened that you graduate 169 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 3: from Howard. Well, first, let's back up a little bit, 170 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 3: Like you're you're at Howard, what are you studying? Dad 171 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 3: is telling you all your life be an entrepreneur? So 172 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 3: what did you get your degree in? And then how 173 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 3: did you make that transition from college educated working in 174 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 3: corporate America to developing these amazing children's vitamins. 175 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: Okay, so remember I mentioned my parents were entrepreneurs, so 176 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 2: I saw the ups and downs. You know, I'm not 177 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 2: I was used to. You know, sometimes you didn't have it, 178 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: and then there are times things were a fantastic business 179 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,960 Speaker 2: was flourishing, and then again it was like an up 180 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: and down roller coaster. So I knew I love TV 181 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,080 Speaker 2: and I would sit and watch a Conisby show, and 182 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 2: you know, representation means everything to a little black girl. 183 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: And I said, I can do that. I want to 184 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: do that. I want to ask, I want to be 185 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 2: on TV. I want to do something with TV. So 186 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: I started doing theater in New York, auditioned for Ed Howard, 187 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 2: and I studied acting for television and film, and then 188 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 2: I took a my senior year, I took a directing 189 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 2: class and I was, oh, I was that was it. 190 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: I knew then I wanted to be a TV director. 191 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: So I went back home to New York and I 192 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: started out at CBS as a page as a page, 193 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: which is a page paid intern, okay, and you know, 194 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 2: I was a gopher. They would go for my coffee, 195 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 2: go for my donuts, go for my mail, go for 196 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 2: my lunch. That was my job. But I was so 197 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: happy to be like I'm here, I did. I can 198 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 2: now I have the foundation to develop this, right, I 199 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 2: can make this into something like I know that I 200 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 2: wanted to be an entrepreneur, but how right? So I'm 201 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 2: still working. I'm still trying to figure myself out, still 202 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 2: learning about myself, and I work my way from a page, 203 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 2: which is a paid intern, to being a production assistant. 204 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 2: There was one in the control room in TV. There's 205 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 2: a control where a director directs a show. I happened 206 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 2: to go in there and I saw the director directing 207 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 2: like he was directing an orchestra, like you know, take 208 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 2: one reading, and I'm like, oh my god, this is it. 209 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 2: I want to do this. So I basically, you know, 210 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 2: worked really hard to make sure this director knew and 211 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 2: I stood out from all the other you know, pages, 212 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: and he gave me an opportunity to be his production assistant, 213 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 2: which dealt with the lower thirds on screens, so if 214 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 2: they were interviewing you or into viewing Joe, it would 215 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 2: say Joe's first name, Joe's last name, and Joe's title. 216 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: I was responsible for making sure that hit air correctly 217 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 2: with spelling, title, and you know anything else that was 218 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: any lower third on the screen. That's my responsibility. Then 219 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: I had to tell the director when to put it 220 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 2: on TV and when to take it off of TV. 221 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 2: And then from there I moved on to be a 222 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: graphics PA, which you dealt with anything behind the anchor. 223 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 2: So that could be the graphic behind the anchor that 224 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: said Howard Homecoming one hundredth year, you know what I mean, 225 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 2: and I would have to make sure how its logo 226 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 2: was correct, homecoming was correct, the colors were correct, or 227 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: for instance, a map location Syria or Istanbul like, I 228 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 2: had to make sure those that was correctly, those dots 229 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 2: on the map were placed correctly, so with my job 230 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 2: to make sure that the director's vision came true. From there, 231 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 2: I'm up to being an associate director, which made me basically, 232 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 2: you watch the packages that news packages. You have to 233 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: time those, you have to make sure those, you know, 234 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 2: the shots are perfect before it hits air for the 235 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 2: world to see. And then from there I moved on 236 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 2: to become a news TV news director. Well, this is 237 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 2: so interesting. 238 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: I'm over here just like visualizing you in the in 239 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: the room like directing, and that is so okay. We 240 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: may have to we may have to take a detour 241 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: and at the end of the conversation and get back 242 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: to this because that is so intriguing and it makes 243 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:44,479 Speaker 1: me think about. 244 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: It's just interesting to me. I would love for black people, 245 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 2: black children to help these kinds of jobs. Yes, you know, 246 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 2: like how does TV get on TV? Yes, And it's 247 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 2: so we're not represented there. Maybe a lot of times 248 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 2: you have watched the news where they'll say this football 249 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: player did this and did this, but they put the 250 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 2: wrong picture up it, or this actor did this and 251 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 2: did this, but they used the wrong actor. But we 252 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 2: would know because we're part of the community and they're 253 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 2: talking about our community. So it's good for us to 254 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 2: represent us in that aspect because some people don't know, 255 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 2: you know, is it any fault of their own or 256 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 2: they just didn't take the time to research, or Google 257 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 2: has the wrong picture up there, you know, things of 258 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 2: that nature. So and I want kids to know there 259 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 2: are other types of jobs, not just to be on camera, 260 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 2: not just to be the actor. Be the director, you know, 261 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: be the associate director, be the producer, be the stage manager, 262 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 2: you know, be the lighting director. They're all types of 263 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 2: TV jobs. That is so important to know. 264 00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: And you literally read my mind because I was going 265 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: to say, it makes me about when they put the 266 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: wrong pictures up. So I'm like, all right, it's a 267 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: production assistant that was supposed to be doing the research 268 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: for that. 269 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: Now the producer too, and the producer also. You know, 270 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 2: if it's your po, you should know what your piece 271 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 2: entails and who you're. 272 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: Talking about exactly. I love that you mentioned that representation matters. 273 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: And I want to go back to the quote of 274 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: the day because that was such a great grounding quote 275 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: for this conversation. Many people talk about body goals and 276 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 1: how they want to look at, how they want to feel, 277 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: but it's like a lot of times when we miss, well, 278 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: what do you put it in your body? Because obviously 279 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: what you put in is what you get out in 280 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: many cases, right, And so what do you wish people 281 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: understood or knew more about when it comes to the 282 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: connection between food behavior and also child childhood development in general. 283 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 2: That foundation matters, you know? For me, For I would say, 284 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 2: taking it back to when I was I would be 285 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 2: going to the vitamin store and looking for vitamin for myself. 286 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,360 Speaker 2: It was hard finding things that did not have gelatin. 287 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 2: I don't consume pork, you know, and a lot of 288 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: people do not know that gelatin is pork beef byproduct, 289 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: and if you don't consume that, then you're not you know, 290 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 2: a lot of things on the market when I was 291 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 2: younger did not have non gelatin. So it's like inclusion 292 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 2: and information and understanding that. You know, if you build 293 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 2: a child, it's like it's like building a house. You 294 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 2: start with the foundation. If the foundation is good, then 295 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 2: no matter what kind of wind comes by, you know 296 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 2: it's gonna be. It might shake a little, but it's sturdy, 297 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 2: you know. So I would I would love for kids to, 298 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: you know, parents to then think about, you know, what 299 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 2: it is you're feeding your child and why and who's 300 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 2: to gain from certain things that may may even confuse you. 301 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 2: Just try to bring it back to the basics. Be 302 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 2: as simple as you can, and be inclusive. There are 303 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 2: a lot of times I think even you know, I 304 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 2: would go to like my aunt's house as a kid, 305 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 2: and it's like you have to eat this, you must, 306 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 2: And it's like, you know, if you explain to me, 307 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 2: then I can understand, right then I can then also 308 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 2: make better choices. 309 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:24,880 Speaker 3: So good, thank you, yes, and so tell us more 310 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 3: about doctor paths, pineapple and a berry, and so tell 311 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 3: us tell us more about doctor paths and why it's 312 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 3: so important for children to consume vitamins in addition to 313 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 3: the other healthy things that they take in well. 314 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,120 Speaker 2: Doctor PABs is you know a lot of people don't 315 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 2: know pineapples are actually berries. You know, they're a massive 316 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,959 Speaker 2: berries form to a central stought. So I wanted to 317 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 2: want to inform people, like, it's one of my favorite fruits. 318 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 2: You should know this. Kinders are actually very so let's 319 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 2: have a conversation about it, you know, And why do 320 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 2: I think children should take vitamins Because we all were 321 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 2: picky eaters, right, I didn't like necessarily I didn't like carrots, 322 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 2: So in carrots, you need carrots. Carrots are good. They're 323 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 2: filled with vitamin A. You know, it's good for your 324 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 2: your hair, your skin, your teeth, like things of that nature. 325 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 2: So you're just kind of supplementing what they don't want 326 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 2: to consume. They may not like broccoli. Okay, you don't 327 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 2: have to eat the broccoli today, but take your you 328 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 2: know you're getting that. Because one, you want focus, you 329 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 2: want them to retain the information that they're getting in school, 330 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 2: and you want strong, healthy bones, strong healthy teeth, you know, 331 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 2: and you start with them young, so they'll take these practices. 332 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 2: When they get older, they'll carry these practices with them. 333 00:19:58,800 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 3: You know. 334 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 2: It's like I think about the story of like, you know, 335 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 2: in elementary school and having you having to wear a 336 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 2: uniform and when you came home, what did they tell 337 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 2: you is take your uniform off, you know, because we 338 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 2: want your uniform to last longer. And as an adult, 339 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 2: I find myself doing that now. Like when I come home, 340 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 2: I undress and take my blazer off, what I want 341 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 2: it to lae longer. I don't sit on my bed 342 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 2: with my outside clothes, you know, things of that, take 343 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 2: my shoes off at the door, you know. So it's 344 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 2: almost like you know, you're building or even brushing your 345 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 2: teeth when you wake up in the morning. Like these 346 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 2: all foundational things that we take now with ourselves as an adults. 347 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 2: So I also you know, contribute that to vitamins or 348 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 2: you know, just taking care of yourself because we only 349 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 2: have one body. Let's love on it, Let's make it last. 350 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 2: It's so true and so important. Such a great reminder 351 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:56,760 Speaker 2: is there. 352 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 1: And I'm going I'm just going back to what you 353 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 1: said about representation right thinking about creating a vitamin and 354 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 1: I'm wonder in my mind was I was like going 355 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: doing the research and learn them about you? I'm like, 356 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: how did you even learn how to make vitamins? 357 00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 2: Like who did you see that was doing this? 358 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 1: Like how did you even start creating solutions for children's health? 359 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: Like what does that path even look like? Like tell 360 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: us more about that taking up space being in the 361 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: US that we are not normally in and like looking 362 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: at the stairs and the faces and the why are 363 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: you here? 364 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 2: Like, oh, yeah, I'm here because I'm going to be here, Okay, 365 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 2: I'm here. This is important. It is important, you know. 366 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 2: And I think about how they say children or black 367 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 2: children that can't focus or ADHD and things of that nature, 368 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 2: and then you're pumping them with medicine instead of finding 369 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 2: the root cause or giving them Omega three that would 370 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 2: help their brain focus on in school. You know, why 371 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: are we It's energy all we needs. Run off the energy, 372 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: play exercise, do some sports before you take medicine. Let's 373 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 2: try that first before we're giving these kids medicine is 374 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 2: also a foundational thing. You start them young with medicine, 375 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 2: then they're going to keep taking these drugs because they're drugs, 376 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 2: you know, and then then you start developing these habits 377 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 2: like oh, you know, I don't feel good, let me 378 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 2: take an ad whatever whatever drug it is, and it's 379 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 2: meet your liver, kidney, whatever, doesn't start to work anymore 380 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 2: because you're pumped with all these drugs. So it was 381 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,160 Speaker 2: like I wanted to find a solution, be a part 382 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 2: of the solution. And you know, during my journey, I 383 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 2: realized a lot some of these vitamins don't say or 384 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: don't carry what they say they carry, and I'm like, no, no, no, 385 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 2: I If anything, I want someone my you know, people 386 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 2: to understand that I follow this process step by step 387 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:07,479 Speaker 2: by step. I'm talking to doctors. It doesn't cost anything 388 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: to have the conversation of like, what are these when 389 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 2: kids come into your office, what is it that they're lacking? 390 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 2: And that is when the wheels started to churn. You know, 391 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 2: what is it that they're lacking? How can I help? 392 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 2: Because I wanted this. I want my line to be 393 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 2: a wellness line. The goal is to develop for children 394 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 2: and teenagers, adults, women, men, you know, and believe that 395 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 2: what you're doing, what I'm providing for you is real. 396 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 2: You know it works, it's good for you. And what 397 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 2: was also very important to me is making sure my 398 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 2: envitamin was developed in the United States. You know, there 399 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: are a lot of regulations for things that are made 400 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 2: here that cannot be controlled elsewhere. It was very important 401 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 2: for me. Even the bottles. The bottles are washed because yeah, 402 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 2: I get the maid somewhere else they have to then 403 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 2: ship them to me, but they have Like there's no 404 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 2: way I could feel safe giving a child a bottle 405 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 2: that has dust or anything in it. It's all washed 406 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 2: and cleaned and packaged, you know, and checked. So you know, 407 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 2: following the stages and the steps of making sure that 408 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 2: I'm giving the best quality that I can provide was 409 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: very important to me. Wow, I mean. 410 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 3: You had me at like having clean ingredients, but and 411 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 3: like knowing being able to pronounce the names of like 412 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 3: the things that are going into the vitamins. But I 413 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 3: appreciate the thoughtfulness behind even the packaging of the products, 414 00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 3: because you're right that we don't know when we're anything 415 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 3: that we're buying these days. We don't know what facility 416 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 3: is processed in. Like our rice might be being processed 417 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 3: in a facility that just processed some wood and that's 418 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 3: how we end up with a random wood chip in our. 419 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 2: Bag of rice.

I'm looking at my vitamins and 460 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: then my little vitamin in case I forgot to take 461 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 1: this morning, and I'm like, I mean, I hope what 462 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 1: they say is in here is in here. 463 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 2: So it's so good to like to be able. 464 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 1: To see the person who's you know, actually reducing and 465 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: helping to make this product in the experience for people. 466 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: Do you have any I don't know, I guess any 467 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: best practices or advice when it comes to just general 468 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: overall health because they has me thinking about. I know 469 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: you mentioned making vitamins for larger groups as well, so 470 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned children, but also teens and then adults. What 471 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: is the best practice now for people who are just 472 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: out there looking for things just in general, because I'm 473 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 1: sure you have a wealth of knowledge as it relates 474 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: to vitamins. Just in general what we put in our bodies. 475 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, it's most important what you're eating. Yeah, 476 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 2: if you can try organic. But you know, the food 477 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 2: that we're consuming now is not the food that we 478 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:33,919 Speaker 2: were consuming in the eighties. It's different. So take that 479 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 2: into consideration. Understanding what you're eating, you know, understanding the 480 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 2: cravings that you're having so that you can combat those right. 481 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 2: Like you know, if they say, you know, women, be 482 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 2: like chocolate. It releases endorphins in our brains. It's like 483 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 2: shopping like the same effect chocolate gives us. Something like, 484 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 2: think about that, Think about why your body is reacting 485 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 2: to certain things that you're doing and try to heal 486 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 2: yourself the best way you can without medication. If you can, 487 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 2: you know, try, you know, for me, I had to 488 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 2: realize that I have I do have sugar cravings. And 489 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 2: because my mom and my dad they own a little 490 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 2: bodega we call a bodega in New York at a 491 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 2: corner store. So every night they would come home and 492 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 2: give me a large Hershey bar. So I think, eat 493 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 2: a Hershey bar, not like a little piece of it, 494 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 2: all of it up for them. Yes, okay, so I 495 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: have to remember that, Okay, although this feels good and 496 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 2: it tastes good, really back because diabetes, like I said, 497 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 2: is real. Right, My grandmother had it, my aunt had it, 498 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 2: so therefore I can have it. Like understanding what happens 499 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 2: or your your family, you know what I mean, Like 500 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 2: how are they dealing with things? Because it can also 501 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 2: affect you, and you know, do the research if you can, 502 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 2: you know, peer to peer research, and also listen to 503 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 2: your body. You know, don't push yourself too hard. That's 504 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 2: one thing I knew. Like I feel like, okay, I'm 505 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 2: really tired, but I'm not doing anything different. I'm eating well, 506 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 2: I'm getting enough sleep. That's it. I forgot to take 507 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 2: my vitamin. So then it's like, you know, little things 508 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 2: of that nature do you do, Like you just take 509 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 2: notes on your own body, Like I know when I 510 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 2: eat too much sugar, I get all itchy. You know, 511 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 2: I can dry this is you know, this is a thing. 512 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 2: So I would say, pay attention, pay attention to your 513 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 2: body because it's telling you. It's telling you something that 514 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 2: is so practical. Thank you, Yes, that does. 515 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: It's perfect and it's practical stuff we can actually start 516 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: doing like today. So thank you for that. 517 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 2: Sure. And you know, one thing you know about doctors, 518 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 2: it's important to know that they're not there to help 519 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 2: you fix the root call us. They're just trying to 520 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 2: help you medicate the issue. They're not trained in nutritional health, 521 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 2: you know. So a lot of it is going back 522 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 2: to like the grassroot things that our grandparents, great grandparents 523 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 2: were doing because they were doing something right, you know. 524 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 2: And the medicare industry is the medical medical industry is 525 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 2: a billion dollar industry. There's a reason why we're sick, 526 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 2: and there's a reason why they say if they give 527 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:34,959 Speaker 2: you blood pressure medicine that you can't get off of it, 528 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 2: you need to stay on that so it's like try 529 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: to evade the bad drama.

And so you mentioned 537 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 3: at one point that, so right now doctor PEVs is 538 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 3: for the kids, and so are there any updates, is 539 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 3: there any progress, any anything you can share on getting 540 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 3: these vitamins out for the teens and adults, because I 541 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 3: know I'm as we're having this interview, I'm like, listen, 542 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 3: where are these vitamins for me?

I 547 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 2: see how I'm feeling, how I'm like, I am the 548 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 2: guinea pig, So give me some time. 549 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: Yes, we got you, we got you. 550 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 2: You will be. 551 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: I want to ask.

I 553 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: want to know, like, what are some of the other 554 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: I guess surprises are things that you've noticed in your 555 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: journey of research and like you said, testing things out 556 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: for yourself. I wondering, like, have you taken something in 557 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: particular and you notice, like your body feels a certain way. 558 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 2: You mentioned sugar make you itch? 559 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: Is it about a positive experience that you've had with like 560 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: a different herb or medicine that you're making for yourself? 561 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: Like what are some of the other things that you've learned? 562 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 2: Well, you know when I go and speak to doctors 563 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 2: or sit in on there they go and they study 564 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 2: with other doctors and name kind of escapes me at 565 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 2: this moment. But it's important to know that there are 566 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 2: sales people going to these doctors and say, Hey, this 567 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 2: medicine does this and does this. You can now prescribe 568 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 2: this to your clients. Know it's it's a sales pitch. 569 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 2: These medicines start out as a sales pitch. So knowing that, 570 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:13,160 Speaker 2: I'm like that this is how the doctors are being educated, 571 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 2: So I behoove anyone, Like if they stay tell them 572 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 2: they tell us try to exercise three times a week, 573 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 2: drink your water, you know, stay away from sugar white flower, 574 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 2: like really truly do that. 575 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 3: You know. 576 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 2: Another thing that I that I that I learned is, 577 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 2: you know, cleansing your body is super duper important. There 578 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 2: was an herb that my father would give us as 579 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 2: a tea to cleanse us. It was called circe and 580 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 2: my aunt was a nurse. Now Circe if anyone from 581 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 2: the West Indian community, it is horrible. It is not 582 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 2: It doesn't smell good, it doesn't taste good, but it 583 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 2: d It was a d wormer. It d wormed you. 584 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 2: And he would give that to us twice a year. 585 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 2: When he stopped giving us to us, my face broke out, 586 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 2: my skin went haywire, Like it's so important. And now 587 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 2: right now people are marketing all types of cleanses and 588 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: things of like. And to me it was like wow, 589 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 2: this was an herb that we just boiled and drank 590 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 2: as a tea every every six months, you know, after 591 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 2: school before we started school again. And of course you 592 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 2: had to make sure that you were close to a toilet, okay, 593 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 2: because it was a rupture, an explosion. But it's like wow, 594 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 2: and now people are marketing all types of cleanses and 595 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 2: d wormers and and another thing. I would say that 596 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 2: my aunt, who was a nurse, she would watch us 597 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 2: sleep and if you were grinding our teeth, you have 598 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 2: you had you had a parasite you that was a sign. 599 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 2: That was a sign that you needed to be cleansed. 600 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 2: So it's like all of this like just you know, 601 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 2: taking that information like wanting to like yell at the 602 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 2: top of my lives.

You don't have to give him. 615 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 2: He made sure, and she just didn't believe us. She 616 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 2: was like, Nope, you have to either have have this 617 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 2: teeth or take this belt. Yeah, okay, we just didn't 618 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:22,239 Speaker 2: want to get beat zo. 619 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,520 Speaker 1: D what she said. 620 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 3: Well, I mean we appreciate that insight. And so when 621 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 3: you think about some of all of the lessons that 622 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:45,879 Speaker 3: you have learned over the years, what would be some 623 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 3: of the what would be your top three lessons in 624 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 3: terms of overall like what we put into our bodies? Like, so, 625 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 3: what are the top three things? So for those of 626 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 3: us as adults who aren't going to be taking doctor 627 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 3: PABs just yet, what are like the top three things 628 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:12,959 Speaker 3: that we should consider consuming that are that's good for us. 629 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,600 Speaker 2: I would say omega. Omega is really good for the brain, 630 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 2: the heart. You know, I believe that the percentage I 631 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 2: might have this a little off, twenty two point six 632 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 2: percent of kids are affected by obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. 633 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 2: I know you this is for adults, but it's so important. 634 00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 2: You know, that's the high number of that number are 635 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,840 Speaker 2: black kids because we're not getting the right nutrition. You know, 636 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 2: we're not eating the organic foods. We're not you know, 637 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 2: we're eating stuff that's stuck with for us. So I 638 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 2: would say omega three, especially for kids. Focused brain is 639 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 2: so important. Retaining the information that you're learning, so we 640 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,800 Speaker 2: can have conversations, we can you know, take in the 641 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 2: lessons and I would say K two and D three, 642 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 2: which is good for the bones, the bodies, cell development, 643 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 2: you know, renewing of the cells. And I would you know, 644 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 2: vitamin C, vitamin C. We're you know, we're coming off 645 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,959 Speaker 2: of having you know, COVID and your immunity. We're all 646 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:28,359 Speaker 2: working doing a million things, wearing fifteen million hats. You know, 647 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 2: people are not washing their hands, people are sneezing without 648 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 2: covering up their noses like stuff like that. You want 649 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 2: to keep your immunity high. You want to you know, 650 00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 2: the less germs that get in that can affect us, 651 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 2: the better we are. So I would say that would 652 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: be you know, the basics that is so helpful. We 653 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:51,919 Speaker 2: had taking notes over there. 654 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 1: Show you okay, thank you, and then I guess another 655 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: question I want to ask you is what other topics 656 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 1: are you passionate about or what are some questions topics 657 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 1: that people rarely ask you about. 658 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 2: Oh well, I feel like I randomly kind of just 659 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 2: say things. You know. My inspiration for most of this, 660 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,320 Speaker 2: like I said before, was my grandmother and my mom, 661 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 2: and you know, when I'm you know, at presentations and 662 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,359 Speaker 2: or trying to learn about other you know, things and 663 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:28,319 Speaker 2: being in spaces that we are not typically there. Like God, 664 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 2: I just I just want us to like think outside 665 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:37,839 Speaker 2: the box and like you know, think about why we 666 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 2: why do we do the things that we do? And 667 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 2: and and one of them is like you think about 668 00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 2: the shower curtain. How simple the shower curtain is, Like 669 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:51,920 Speaker 2: that is a patent thing that somebody's owns, that somebody 670 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 2: is wealthy all of shower curtain. Another thing that I 671 00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:59,880 Speaker 2: want people to know as a business person is again, 672 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:08,200 Speaker 2: own your stuff. You copyright, trademark not trademark your logos, 673 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 2: trademark your thing, protect it because there are vultures out 674 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 2: there that want your creativity. And we as a people 675 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 2: are talented, We are creative, We are innovative. So protect 676 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 2: your logos, protect your things, get on your paperwork, because 677 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 2: it's as important as anything else than the product. Is 678 00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:36,239 Speaker 2: more important than the product. You know, your name is 679 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,359 Speaker 2: so important and you if you came up with that, 680 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 2: that that doesn't give anyone the right to take it. 681 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:45,359 Speaker 2: So I wish people would ask more about how they 682 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 2: can do things like that and then therefore do it. 683 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 2: It's caught. It may call be costly, but it's better 684 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 2: to pay now than to have to pay later, you know, 685 00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 2: to get an attorney, get a lawyer to then have 686 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 2: to fight to get your things back, you know, get research, 687 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 2: do the research. Hold your stuff dear to you because 688 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 2: it's yours, like it's it should be, like your social 689 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 2: Security number, how important that is, Like your your birth certificate, 690 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 2: that's important, that's locked away. You can hold your stuff 691 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,800 Speaker 2: down tight because there's so many vultures out there that 692 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 2: want to take you know, your things from you. 693 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 3: Yes, that is yes, that is so so important. 694 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 2: And so. 695 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 3: Is there anything about doctor paths or usuaries that we 696 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 3: haven't asked yet that you that you want folks to 697 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 3: walk away with after. 698 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 2: They listen to this interview.
