And 35 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 5: also when your nineteen year like old. 36 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 2: It's interesting when you say that, you know, nineteen stool, 37 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 2: because I was just reading about Simone Biles. I'm like, 38 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: she's twenty six years old. 39 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's nice and. 40 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: You know going back to the Olympics, like that's she's 41 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 2: she's also a bad bitch. That's insane. I've always wondered too, 42 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: as you said this, like being the alternate for the 43 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 2: Olympics was that kind of hard to go? I was 44 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 2: this close to being on the actual team. 45 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 5: It was probably one of the hardest experiences that I 46 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 5: had in my life because it was zero point two 47 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 5: five tenths of a point that I missed it. And 48 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 5: it's like it's the covalent of a pinky toe. And 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 5: when you train for ten years for that dream, and 50 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 5: also my entire identity was I am a gymnast, and 51 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 5: so it's like when you're like, from the age of 52 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 5: nine to nineteen, I'm like, that's my dream and training 53 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 5: like eight nine hours a day by the end of 54 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 5: my career, and I had my coach, is, my parents, 55 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 5: the country like this whole pressure to qualify for it, 56 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 5: and then when I didn't make it, I was like, 57 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 5: it's just like utter shock and then you're like I 58 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 5: don't know what to do with my like who am I? 59 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: And so I think that was. 60 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 5: Really the moment where I like really discovered what I 61 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 5: call my inner bad bitch voice, because I realized that 62 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 5: my identity wasn't that of a gymnast, it was that 63 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 5: of a winner and a fighter. And so what I 64 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 5: ended up doing was I actually got into Yale like 65 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 5: right during that same period, and I told Yale that 66 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 5: I wasn't going to go for that year and I 67 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 5: bought a one way ticket to Russia to the Russian 68 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 5: Olympic Training Center, and like, so if you imagine Siberia 69 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 5: in the middle of winter, and that's what it was like, 70 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 5: nine hours a day of training with like the most crazy, 71 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 5: strict Russian coaches that you can imagine. 72 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 3: And I was like, Okay, for nine months. 73 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 5: I'm just going to train, travel, compete, and like be 74 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 5: the best gymnast I can possibly be, because like, winners 75 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 5: don't fuit when they're doing. And so I ended my 76 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 5: last competition a year later at the two thousand and 77 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 5: eight US National Championships, and I won every single gold 78 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 5: medal Athlete of the year, and I was like, peace, Okay, 79 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 5: now I'm out, Like this, this is how a winner 80 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 5: ends their career. So like, even though I didn't make 81 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 5: the Olympics, I kind of put a bow on it 82 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 5: and like ended that chapter of my life the way 83 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 5: I wanted to, and then eventually got inducted into the 84 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 5: Hall of Fame. 85 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 4: Hell yeah, that's amazing. Okay, So tell me take me 86 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 4: back to this whole. 87 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: Like good girl image thing that you used to like, 88 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: is that something that was like put on you from 89 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: your family? 90 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 4: Was that like a religious thing or like, tell me 91 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 4: more about that. 92 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 5: I think it's very common amongst like immigrant children, Asian girls, 93 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 5: especially Indian girls, And I think it has to do 94 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 5: with like this knowing that your family also made a 95 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 5: huge sacrifice to come to the country, and there's a 96 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 5: lot of guilt pressure on you to be successful and 97 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 5: to have that soccer if ice not be for nothing. 98 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: So yeah, I always felt like. 99 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 5: I had to get straight a's, I had to do 100 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 5: well in school. If I was going to do it, 101 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 5: I was going to do it exceptionally well. And I 102 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 5: also had that innate drive in me. I think there 103 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 5: was just like the perfectionism. And so when I think 104 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 5: about good girl brainwashing, it's just like all the societal 105 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 5: media messages that have trained women to be like obedient, polite, 106 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 5: perfect people, pleasing. 107 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 3: To work hard to prove ourselves to. 108 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 5: Other people, rather than like knowing innately that we are 109 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 5: enough and valuable. It's like the fact that we're more 110 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 5: afraid to take risks on ourselves, We're more afraid to 111 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 5: dream bigger because there's probably more messages that are like, oh. 112 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 3: Be careful, you know, be a good girl. It's okay. 113 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 3: And yeah, I feel like I had a lot of that. 114 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 5: Just like internal training in me that was especially from gymnastics. 115 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 5: It's like literally a perfect ten. You know, it's like 116 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 5: be the perfect good girl, listen to your coaches.

Or was that 126 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 2: just the expectation that you thought that they had for 127 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: you and on you or would they have been like, 128 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: you know, were they accepting of kind of like this 129 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: new path and like not making in the team.

And there's something about me where 175 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: I'm like, I have no knowledge, like actually, what is 176 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 2: you know, what should I be making sure that my 177 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 2: financial advisor is investing certain things in? But it was 178 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 2: not taught to me, nor did I know, nor is 179 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: it something that I truthfully have done their research to 180 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 2: look into. But because it just feels like, oh, the 181 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: man right, But I'm like, well, why are we why 182 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 2: are women not taking that control? And so when I 183 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: read that, you know you're helping empower women to like 184 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 2: have that wealth and investments, Like what is that first 185 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 2: step to? Because I truthfully I don't want to read 186 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 2: I don't want to read a boring investment book. I'd 187 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,839 Speaker 2: like to read your book because your book excites me, 188 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 2: like knowing, Okay, maybe you're going to get some good 189 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 2: tips in there, but like, what are some are there 190 00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 2: tips in there that help women to be better investors 191 00:09:58,679 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 2: with their money? 192 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 3: Yeah? 193 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,960 Speaker 5: Well I want to zoom out a little bit and 194 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 5: just first like think about the concept of money in 195 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 5: and of itself, because I think a lot of women 196 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 5: just feel like the moment you think finances and like money, 197 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 5: there's just some sort of anxiety or like aversion to it, 198 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 5: Like I don't really want to deal with that. Let 199 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 5: me just go spend it on these attitudes and the 200 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 5: avoidance and so like, I like to think a lot 201 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 5: about how, first of all, money is like it's just 202 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 5: it's a piece of paper, right. And the reason why 203 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 5: I have values is because society has basically been like 204 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 5: we have decided that when you exchange a piece of 205 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 5: paper that you will be able to get a coffee, 206 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 5: you know, handbag or whatever. And like if you just 207 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 5: break it down, you're like, Okay, this is literally just 208 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 5: a piece of paper, and it's about an exchange of value. 209 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 5: So if money is like an energetic exchange of value, 210 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 5: and like I think of the embodiment of feminine wealth. 211 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 5: So there's a lot of like what are women naturally 212 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 5: really good at? So our natural superpower intuition, right, we 213 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 5: feel we give life. And so I had this this 214 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 5: I was signing to this friend, my friend of mine. 215 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 5: We were like, okay, the mother nature is feminine, right, 216 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 5: Like our god given right is to like give life 217 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 5: to the next generation. And so if investing is literally 218 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 5: like taking something and like multiplying it and like giving 219 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 5: it life, so that's like we naturally already do that, 220 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 5: Like you take a seed and you like grow it, 221 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 5: and that's what investing is. And so women, if you 222 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 5: actually look at the data, women outperform men forty basis 223 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 5: points on average. And it's because men tend to trade 224 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 5: a lot, and they're like impulsively trading. Men are actually 225 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 5: more emotional like when it comes to the market. So 226 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 5: you're like, oh my god, I want to get in 227 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 5: that foma whatever. And over time, men actually make less 228 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 5: money than women. And so when we talk about you 229 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 5: and like Warren Buffett, a lot of times we say, 230 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 5: like Warren Buffett has a feminine investing style because he 231 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 5: looks long term. He was like, I'm going to do 232 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 5: my research. I'm going to be really careful once I 233 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 5: put it in its game. And that's how women tend 234 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 5: to invest, where like we don't want to be sitting 235 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 5: here on our computer day trading every single day and 236 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 5: like every single moment. You're like, I'm busy. I just 237 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,359 Speaker 5: want to like do my research, feel good about it. Intuitively, 238 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 5: like I know this company like makes sense, put it 239 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 5: in and just like set it and forget it. And 240 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 5: that is actually what investing is. Like the best types 241 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 5: of investors are long term investors, and so that's the 242 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 5: first thing to just like even embrace the identity of 243 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 5: being an investor. It's like, if you spend money to 244 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 5: exchange value and you make good purchases, you are probably 245 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 5: a good investor. And also women women control eighty five 246 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 5: percent of all consumer spending, so it's like we do 247 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 5: make good purchases like we do make purchases good for 248 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 5: the environment, for ourselves, for our families, and so, like, 249 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 5: I think the mindset piece is really important. The second 250 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 5: thing is also understanding that like you should not have 251 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 5: your money in a savings account, because if you keep 252 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 5: your money in a savings account, you lose money every 253 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 5: day because the inflation rate is greater than the savings rate. 254 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,439 Speaker 5: So like, the very very first thing, like at minimum 255 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 5: that someone should do is move that out of a 256 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 5: savings account and into a high yield savings account. And 257 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 5: so if you haven't yet, like if you just have 258 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 5: it sitting in Chase or something like, literally, the first 259 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 5: thing you need to do is move into highield savings 260 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 5: account so you're at least making like these days like 261 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 5: four to five percent. I know. 262 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh okay, step one got it. 263 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 4: Doing that when we get off yeah. 264 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 265 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 5: And then the second thing is like if you want 266 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 5: to start investing in the stock market and you literally 267 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 5: you're like I don't have any time whatsoever. There are 268 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 5: now things like robo advisors, things like Betterment Wealth Front 269 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 5: that like literally use AI to like plug in based 270 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 5: off your risk profile, just put it into stocks and 271 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 5: bonds and whatever, and like I put it in years ago, 272 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 5: it's like it's I've already made an additional one hundred k, 273 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 5: like just sticking it in a like creating an account, 274 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 5: and I literally forgot that it was there. 275 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 3: And then I was like, let me check my Like 276 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 3: I checked it a year later. I was like, that's 277 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 3: not bad. 278 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 2: What's your thoughts on bitcoin? 279 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 5: Oh? Well, at this point, bitcoin is like it's kind 280 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 5: of like like when you think of just a stable asset, 281 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 5: At this point, it's getting more and more stable and 282 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 5: more and more correlated with like the dollar and like 283 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 5: the gold standard. So at this point, anybody who invests 284 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 5: in bitcoin is not going to make a ton of money. 285 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 5: It's just like investing in something that's like, you know, 286 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 5: might go up and. 287 00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 3: Might go down. 288 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 5: But I I don't think that we're going to see 289 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 5: the same sort of hype that we've seen before, because 290 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 5: we've we've had like multiple of these crashes. 291 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 2: At this point, would you take your money out if 292 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 2: you had any in there? Would you just keep it 293 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: and let it ride? Like if you if you're able to, 294 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 2: just like. 295 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 3: I would keep it. I would keep it and let 296 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 3: it ride. 297 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I did that at. 298 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 4: Least we got that. 299 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's stressful, but I also did that on a 300 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 2: man's like my brother, he's like one of those days, 301 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 2: got to go to this.

And then I'm yeah, I'm like I'm 304 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 2: just like put it in, let it ride. But again, 305 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 2: I would like to be more knowledgeable about like what 306 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 2: is what it's riding in because I think I think 307 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 2: a lot of it is just in a checking do 308 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 2: like you know what I mean.

And then there's also 348 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 5: the self sabotage cycle. We're like, well, so much money 349 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 5: as well, just like you. 350 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm like in the middle of wedding planning too, 351 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 2: and I'm like, you know, oh, it's terrible.

And then a toxic relationship either 374 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 5: you're like you're not allowed out of the house, Like 375 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 5: you're not allowed to talk to other girls, other guys, 376 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 5: and like you're just like suffocating them because you're afraid 377 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 5: to lose them. But in trying to keep it and 378 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 5: save it, you actually end up loving. 379 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: Yes, I'm doing what I do with all my past relationships. 380 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 2: I'm controlling it and you can sitting on it.
