And it's been It's happened 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:55.320 a few times now where someone's commented and they're all obsessed. 0:07:55.000 --> 0:07:56.120 Like what do you do for work? What do you 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:57.200 do for work? What was your job? 0:07:57.200 --> 0:07:59.840 And I'm like journalism and marketing, And then one persons 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.720 bond and he said, well, this could never be true 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:05.840 for teachers. You know, we hardly make any money as 0:08:05.840 --> 0:08:08.800 it is, and if you want to get paid more, 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:12.200 it's really expensive degrees that stand in your way. And 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:15.680 I hear that, but I also am like Tiffany was 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:19.520 a preschool teacher. Yeah, like what you're talking about, I mean, 0:08:21.680 --> 0:08:23.440 that's a defeatist attitude, it is. 0:08:23.680 --> 0:08:26.320 I yes, of course. 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.800 The point is, like Tiffany, you didn't become a bajillionaire 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:32.920 by continuing to teach preschool, but you know, you'd harness 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:36.679 those skills in those teaching you know tea and you 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:40.480 teach yes exactly, and I think you it's about like 0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:45.400 you broadened the concept of what teaching could look like exactly, 0:08:45.480 --> 0:08:50.360 and you you made it almost like no one could 0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:52.960 ever think that a teacher could you know, reach the 0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:55.400 heights that you've reached, But you envision that for yourself 0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:57.200 and you created it, and I think that is what 0:08:57.240 --> 0:08:58.120 separates some people. 0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:00.400 You really have to unlearn this. 0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:03.520 Idea, the box that you you put yourself in and 0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:05.120 like society puts you in as well. 0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:07.520 I'm telling you it's true, like it I mean, and 0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:10.360 I'm not gonna pretend like it's not hard to do so. 0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:12.480 But one of the things, like you know, one of 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:15.480 my goals for the last like since I came back 0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:18.199 for my six weeks, really has been to expand my capacity. 0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:21.000 You know. It's almost like I had just done actually, 0:09:21.000 --> 0:09:25.280 like so on my on my ig feed, I've got 0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:26.880 you know, I do this thing called the budget needs 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:30.520 to break down and that's like the most recent breakdown 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.679 video on my ig. It's like, expand your capacity. So 0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:35.800 how do you So It's almost like you have this cup, 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:38.400 and this cup can hold eight ounces, and that is 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:40.439 the way you're thinking now, but you want to be 0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.280 able to hold sixteen ounces. Well it can't be the 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:44.520 same cup because that cup is not going to hold 0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.640 more than eight. So unless you expand your capacity, get 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:51.600 a new cup, you know, and introduce new ideas, new ways, 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:54.439 new ways of thinking and navigating things, you will always 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:58.400 only hold up to eight ounces. And so that's really 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:00.720 the key. And it's it's all it's hard word, you 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:04.280 know because even me, so despite the fact that we 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:07.240 hit ten million dollars last year, I still think I 0:10:07.320 --> 0:10:10.640 think too small, you know what I mean, because like 0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:16.880 I still feel like I have not widened, you know, 0:10:17.840 --> 0:10:21.320 my capacity for thinking beyond where I am now. Because 0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:23.880 I will talk to someone else and I'm just like, wow, 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:26.000 I never thought about it that way, and I'm enjoying that. 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:29.160 So I'm actually spending so much time now. I have 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.959 shifted what I thought I should be as a CEO 0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:35.880 to something different. So in the beginning it was a 0:10:35.920 --> 0:10:37.480 lot more hands on because I had to be like, 0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:39.040 what's this, what's that? What about this? What about that? 0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:40.920 You know, like no, no, no, like this like that. 0:10:41.080 --> 0:10:43.760 So but I have grown the team enough and the 0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:47.199 six weeks away has taught me to trust them enough 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:49.000 that they got it and I just kind of come 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:51.160 in and make some changes. So my role as a 0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:54.520 CEO is to remove blockages and challenges. So let's just say, 0:10:55.160 --> 0:10:56.760 you know, the content team has been trying to reach 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:58.200 out to somebody they want to partner with and the 0:10:58.200 --> 0:11:00.160 person's not responding. I'll just make a phone call. I'm 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:03.280 been like, says, pick up your phone, you know. So 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.360 I removed challenges. I set vision, you know, like here's 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:10.000 the north star what we're headed toward. I also am 0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:13.000 in charge of company culture, you know, because it really 0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:15.400 does kind of trickle down from the top. But also 0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:18.640 something that I've incurred is that, like, to me as 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:21.920 a really good, CEO. I have to be an amazing student. 0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:24.160 I've been doing a lot of studying Mandy, a lot. 0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:28.200 I mean, I had been watching so many YouTube videos 0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:31.920 about creating, about investing, about anything I can think of, 0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:34.360 any kind of interest. I have read so many books. 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:38.400 I just finished one Atomic Habits today, and I have 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:42.880 I'm going to read Trevor Noah's Border Crime. I've been 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:44.160 listening to so many podcasts. 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:46.920 Glad you're I'm glad you're getting some memoirs in there too. 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:49.400 Yes, no, I love a good memory these days. But 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:51.280 you know, like I just feel like that's one of 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:53.920 the best ways to increase your capacity is you have 0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:56.640 to interject new ideas and new ways of thinking, and 0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:59.880 new people and you know, and just just new experiences 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:04.160 into your life. So the gentleman who said, like, yes, yes, 0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:07.679 maybe a school teacher may not be able to you know, 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:10.360 grow to you know, millions and millions of dollars, and 0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:14.160 even that I don't believe. But teaching, certainly, when if 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:17.720 you can teach, do you understand how few people like 0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:22.960 what a what a highly monetizable skill set teaching is yo? 0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:25.680 If you can teach, you can like literally rule the world, 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:28.240 and so like, I just challenge anyone who kind of 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:30.600 feels like they're in a position or you know, or 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.600 any sort of position, yeah that where they think that 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.960 they're meant there what they can make is limited. I 0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:39.800 challenge you to be like, I don't that's not true. 0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:42.080 Let me find an example of that's where that's not true. 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:43.679 And I'm an example where that's not true. 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:45.880 Yeah, I'm really glad that I brought that up because 0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.680 I know I'm like Tiffany is proof positive of this. 0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:52.679 But I love that. And I think I think you only. 0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:55.400 Fail in life if you're if you think you have 0:12:55.440 --> 0:12:56.920 a figured out and if you think that you have 0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:00.280 nothing left to learn, and there's no right way to 0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:02.839 learn either, there's no right way to listen. You just 0:13:02.920 --> 0:13:05.480 kind of have to find the stories that you know 0:13:05.600 --> 0:13:07.079 or access people, either. 0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:08.920 One on one or it can be podcasts, you. 0:13:08.960 --> 0:13:12.360 Know, I personally listen to podcasts. I watch a lot 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:16.000 of great documentaries and shows on TV, and I love 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:21.080 I love fiction and I love memoirs and I love talking. 0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:22.840 To people about it. And it's not like there's any 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:24.160 one right path. 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:27.280 But it's like we're constantly students, and I think about 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:31.000 Michelle Obama's memoir Becoming, and in the intro of the book, 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:34.320 she talks about why she named it becoming, and she says, 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:37.120 it's because we're always becoming, you know, the next version 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:40.840 of ourselves, the next layer of ourselves. We're becoming that 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:44.000 person every day. We're in a constant Nothing is finite, 0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:46.640 nothing is final. And I hope that Brown Ambition is 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:48.920 a place where people feel like they can come and 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:52.120 help there and help and we help them, you know, 0:13:52.240 --> 0:13:54.680 see a bigger vision of what their life can be 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:56.960 as well. And that's what it feels like to me 0:13:57.040 --> 0:13:57.800 for sure. 0:13:58.200 --> 0:13:59.840 And also to you know, what I've been learning, Like 0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:01.240 a lot of what I've been learning. I was just 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:03.920 talking to a friend of mine who has an online school. 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:07.920 She also hit ten million dollars last year and then 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:10.120 this year, I think she hit ten million dollars in 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:12.840 her online school. But then she also trades, and so 0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:15.319 she made ten million dollars in trading, so twenty million 0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:17.960 I believe, right. So anyway, we were talking about that 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:20.560 and how she was sharing how she went to this 0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:24.320 conference where she sat on this panel with some of 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:27.960 the largest names in the creator space, and she just 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:30.760 knew that these huge names got to be making fifty 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:33.560 one hundred million dollars something crazy, and she found that 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:36.680 on that panel, she was like, not only was she 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:40.800 making more than most, Like almost everyone on that panel, 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:45.120 they like, it's one thing to gross ten million, it's 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:48.760 another thing to net. So the difference, y'all is gross 0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:51.080 is oh this is all we you know, you get 0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:54.040 the complete bag? Net is after I pay all these expenses, 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:57.120 what's left over? And she said that, you know that 0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:58.920 there were people who maybe make eight or nine, but 0:14:59.240 --> 0:15:01.960 they were like, we're negative, We're not actually making any money. 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:04.440 And she was so shocked because she just assumed I'm 0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:06.960 not famous, I'm not well known. You've got millions and followers, 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.600 and you've got twenty million followers here, and you've got 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:12.200 this big platform here, and you need to tell me 0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:15.120 you're in the negative. And she just couldn't believe because 0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:16.480 I was telling her like, oh, you know, I really 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:20.080 got to do better. She was like, girl, no, you 0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:22.240 are a freaking unicorn, because I think the last time 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:24.760 I checked, our our net was forty six percent or 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:26.920 forty six percent profit, So that means of the ten 0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:30.160 you know, you get to keep four point six million, 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:34.240 four point eight million, So that's high for kind of 0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:37.280 any company. And so that was just like such an 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:41.160 eye opener of some You don't need to be as 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:42.920 big as you think you need to be to be 0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:44.240 as successful as you like to be. 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:46.800 It all depends on how you're measuring that success. 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:47.280 Mm hmm. 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:50.960 And net is the keyword here. Net net net Yeah, 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:53.920 networth net proceeds, net profit. 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:55.800 That's where it's really at. That's where the truth. 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.520 Is because you can have like a highly actionized, like 0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:03.760 a community of one hundred thousand that yield your business 0:16:03.760 --> 0:16:07.600 more than someone who has two million, three million followers 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:09.520 and like nobody cares what they have to say, you 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.000 know what I mean. People just follow, but they're not 0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:14.160 really like they're not moved. And so like for me, 0:16:14.840 --> 0:16:17.400 like when I think of like my business girl crushes, 0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:21.200 one of them is Girl Trek. So if you guys 0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:23.200 are not familiar with Girl Track, girl Track is a 0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:28.720 black women's nonprofit and the premise of girl Trick is 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.720 to get black women out walking treking, right, and so 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:35.120 girl Trek without any ads, it's first I could see 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:38.480 signed up like about one million women in about a 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:40.400 year and a half a year year and a half 0:16:40.760 --> 0:16:43.840 to Girl Track. That's like incredible because you don't understand 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:46.800 like everybody here, everybody spends so much money on ads 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:48.840 for the most part. So I look at girl Track 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:50.640 and if you like, if you I was just on 0:16:50.680 --> 0:16:52.840 TikTok to see this. Girl Trek have a TikTok. They 0:16:52.880 --> 0:16:56.040 do zero post. If you go to their Facebook, it's decent. 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:58.880 But if you go to their Instagram, Okay, it's decent. 0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:00.840 But eh, they they don't send out a ten of 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:03.200 emails because I'm on the Girl Trek email list, and 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:08.080 yet they have been able to get this amazing this 0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:12.800 like a million women to move right. I remember they 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:16.080 they did a partnership with like Oprah via WW they 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:18.240 did a partnership I think with like Walmart and Target. 0:17:18.240 --> 0:17:21.359 And you're like, so sometimes you can get so sidetracked 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:24.040 by like the flashy that you see that you're missing 0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:27.280 out on these real amazing lessons of like these diamonds. 0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:29.600 So to me, I don't look at another other stuff 0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:31.479 I'm looking at. So how does girl Trek do this? 0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:34.280 I know I know both Morgan and Vanessa Hork, founders 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:36.560 of girl Trek, and that's another thing that I really 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:39.320 enjoyed with Girl Trek is that it's Girl Trek, not 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:43.120 Morgan and Vanessa. Like I would love to be able 0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:45.360 to like really in the next five years. I wanted 0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:47.080 to fall off as Tiffany. I want like the new 0:17:47.119 --> 0:17:49.040 financial people like oh remember the budget Nessa when she 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:51.359 was oh, look at Tiffany, and I'm like, yes, I 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:56.240 fell off. I fell off and you can't find me anywhere, 0:17:56.600 --> 0:18:00.439 and like the business is the phrase fronting thing and 0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:02.560 so like I just study like those types of brands. 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:04.679 I think I think we're in danger these days of 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:06.720 like kind of like giving all of our energy toward 0:18:07.640 --> 0:18:10.639 the things that look outwardly successful but inwardly are really not. 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:13.000 Yeah. Amen, period. 0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:13.600 Paragraph. 0:18:14.080 --> 0:18:16.480 If there's one takeaway from this show, let that be it. 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:17.880 What you see is not. 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:18.679 The full picture. 0:18:18.720 --> 0:18:20.399 And that's why it's like you see it. Take it 0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:22.520 with a huge handful of salt. 0:18:22.520 --> 0:18:25.320 And then a handful of assault. 0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:29.320 Just salt. 0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:31.440 They all over it. 0:18:33.080 --> 0:18:34.280 That's just farse. 0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:37.200 I mean, I try to be so authentic on social 0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:40.480 media to the point where I have my screaming toddler 0:18:40.600 --> 0:18:42.560 sometimes on my tiktoks while I'm trying to do it 0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:44.320 because I'm like I need to do this TikTok and 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:45.919 he's here, so this is what it's like to be 0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:48.919
