It 65 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: meant a lot to us because you're one of those 66 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: people like me, Rashan, it takes a lot to make 67 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: you laugh out laugh, So to see you laugh out loud, 68 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: I knew we were achieving our goal.

But watching you check on 75 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: the role of executive producer on a national series that's 76 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: cleared it over native percent of this country. That means 77 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: you're talking to people in Utah, you're talking to people 78 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: and for a mall, you're talking to people in the 79 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 1: last you're talking to people in Texas. How do you 80 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: an the show prepared at what point of view y'all 81 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,559 Speaker 1: coming other than Sherry. We know she's to start the show, 82 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: but you gotta reach soccer malls, the Latino community, the 83 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: African American community, the conservative community. Do y'all take all 84 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: that in consideration when you're doing the segments. You know 85 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: what we're sharing. One of the things that we're just 86 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: trying to be intentional about is giving people unapologetic Sherry. 87 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: The beauty of Sherry is and I had to tell 88 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: this to our team here, uh in a meeting one time. 89 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: The Sherry was what we like to call white famous 90 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: before she was black famous. Sherry was somebody who carved 91 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: out a niche uh in the Hollywood community as the 92 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: little funny black girl on all the big major white sitcoms. 93 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: You know. When Sherry first got on the view, Uh, 94 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: they did like in the research studies, because people outside 95 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: of the industry don't know that all these shows do 96 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: focus groups and research. Then these things of people like 97 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: to talk about called cumulative scores, which quantify your impact 98 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: to the audience. And when Sherry first got to the view, 99 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: the black audience was like, who is she and how 100 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: does she get this job, and uh, you know, how 101 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: does she deserve this opportunity? And by a year two 102 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: or three, she had become one of the favorites with 103 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: the black audience because they felt as though she spoke 104 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: to their voice. So she was somebody who Middle America 105 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: could relate to in life. She's somebody who felt safe 106 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: to them because they had seen her own friends and 107 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: everybody Loves Raymond and all these big major franchise uh sitcoms. 108 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: But then she was carving out a space for black audiences. 109 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: So by the time she left the View after her 110 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: seven plus years on the show, Sherry had created this 111 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: impact that really was kind of universal. She started moving 112 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: into spaces in which we talked about how Whoopie moves, 113 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: or Michael Jordan moves, or maybe Will Smith before the 114 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: Oscar slap, successful black talent that all of America just 115 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: see as a talent. Yes, at some point, yes, people 116 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: do remind you of the color of your skin. But 117 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 1: for the most part, sure it became one of those 118 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: people that became relatable to everybody. You know, you found 119 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 1: something in her journey to connect to. So when we're 120 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: preparing the content for the show, uh, we're looking at 121 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: stories and ideas and guests. We really try to do 122 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: the things that feel authentic to share it because one 123 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: of the things that we've learned is that if Sherry 124 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: is doing something that feels authentic to her, that's fun 125 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: for her, that's organic for her, then the audience has 126 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: that same reaction to it, you know. And so if 127 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: it's not something that's natural for her, if she can't 128 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: find the humanity in it, or the funny in it, 129 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: or the flirting in it, then we'll stay away from 130 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: it because if it doesn't connect with her, it's not 131 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: going to connect with Militred in Montana, absolutely, and I 132 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: think that's important. The beauty of when you talk about 133 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: her career, her relatability. I met Sharry when I was 134 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: executive co executive producing the Jamie Foxx Show back on 135 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,799 Speaker 1: the w B and she was an actress we hired, 136 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: and that's when she came into my life. And and 137 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 1: then as watched, I've been I've been at the like 138 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 1: I said on the window sill, watching her career, and 139 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: you're absolutely correct, being able to transition into white sitcoms, 140 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: white television projects seamlessly, and that there was a testament 141 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: to her crossover ability, and then, like you said, the 142 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: view only just solidified it. And then when she came out, 143 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: she was back to doing those things when she was 144 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: no longer part of you, doing those white sitcoms or 145 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: those non traditional characters that you want to assume to 146 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: be relatable to a black actress or black actor. Then 147 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: I see in essence walking in the streets of essence, 148 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: black women stopping there taking photos, taking selfie. So that 149 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: type of crossover. And I and I was blessed every 150 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: when I say blessed ladies and gentlemen. I arrived in 151 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: New York when it was letting the audience in. And 152 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you he's He's right. I've been fortunate 153 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: to launch a lot of TV shows, whether it's sitcoms, 154 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: whether His whether it's UH, whether it's game shows, or 155 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 1: whether it's a talk shows. The audience means everything. And 156 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: how that audience comes in. We have a term we 157 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: do a talk show world called car wash the words. 158 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: And somebody comes in, they don't look up snuff. We're 159 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: telling we might have a code in the back to 160 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: put on them, or are you look pretty bad, We're 161 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: gonna put you in the back row. You can't sit 162 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: on the front row. That's car washing your audience. This 163 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: audience that showed up that I saw looked like they 164 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: were going to church, looked like they was ready for 165 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: a fascist show, and they were the stars. How did 166 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: she make that switch? We know what the Wendy Williams Show, 167 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: but to come on the air and the audience already 168 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 1: line up that fits her brand? How did she pull 169 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: that off? John? Well, you know, the people are just 170 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: responding to her, you know. It is the thing. You know, 171 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,560 Speaker 1: people know that we inherited production team from the Windy 172 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: Williams Show and deb Mark Mercury. Uh. And but everything 173 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: that has been done to prepare for the Sherry Show, Uh, 174 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: it has been very different from that. You know. Uh, 175 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: there's something people who worked for this syndication company for 176 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: thirteen years, but we've really been able to condition people 177 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 1: to adopt the language of This is day one on 178 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: a brand new franchise. So this is a year fourteen 179 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: of a franchise that Denmark has been producing. This is 180 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: season one on a brand new show that's literally all 181 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: about Sherry. So the audience looks very different from the 182 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: audience that used to come to the previous show the 183 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: makeup of the demographics that we have, and you know, 184 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: even with our television region. You know, our show is 185 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 1: syndicated in something like point five percent of the country, 186 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: which is a far more expensive audience than you know, 187 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: there's been lots of stories in the press that we 188 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: inherited time slots for Wendy Williams. But the truth of 189 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: the matter is we expanded on matilu time slots and 190 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: because when Williams show was only about sixty nine percent 191 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 1: of the country. Uh, and so we've added an additional 192 00:09:55,600 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: thirty plus percent to our audience. And so, uh, the 193 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: timing and the appetite for sure, he was just right. 194 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: And we lean into all things Sherry and making sure 195 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: that this environment is a true reflection of her. You know, 196 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: the through line is joy, The through line is laughed at. 197 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: The through line is friendship, you know, and and the 198 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: friendship part is so important, which is why on our 199 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: premier episode, one of her friends was one of our 200 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: first guests, Candy Burris. You know, another friend of both 201 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: of ours, single trainise of American Idol fame, recorded our 202 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: theme song talk show Legend, you know and friend to us. 203 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: Both Rlanda. Watts is the voiceover announcer for our show 204 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: every day, and so leading to these elements that are 205 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 1: our real life for Saunas has really helped with an 206 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: organic connection to the audience and that's been imperative for 207 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: our success. Sure, you know, the social media can be 208 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: a curse and it can be a blessing, and then 209 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: you can read certain things that social media just make 210 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: you smile. You op post that you did on LinkedIn 211 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: with Rulanda Watts was one of those posts that made 212 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 1: me smile. It also let us know that life is 213 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 1: about a journey and you never know how you will 214 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: reconnect with a person. And there's that person humble, is 215 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: that person ready to accept where you're at when they 216 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: were versus where they were met when y'all met the 217 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: first time around. Tell everybody about the Rolanda watching relationship 218 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: and the post that is one of my favorite posts. 219 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: I'm just tell you, John, when I saw that I 220 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: shared it, I liked it and because I love Orlonda 221 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: Watson there and I totally respect who you are and 222 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: watch your journey from Tom Jordas now, but that was 223 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: a post that meant something to me absolutely. Richard, you know, 224 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 1: when I was a student in college. Well, first before they, 225 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: when I was a student in high school, we took 226 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: a class trip to New York City and we sat 227 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: in the audience of the Rolonda watch shop and I'll 228 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: never get LaToya Jackson was the guest, and you know, 229 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: and so then by the time I got to college, 230 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 1: I uh, I was a last key kid with Sean 231 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: so so talk those where my babysitters. I get home 232 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: after school, I let myself into the house and Ricky 233 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: Lake and Rolanda and Montell Williams, those are my babysitters. 234 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: So I remember hearing a Ricky Lake story and how 235 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: she was discovered fresh out of college and she was 236 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: the youngest talk show host in the in the in 237 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: the business. And I thought that was gonna be my trajectory. 238 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: I thought, I went down to Norfolk State, shout out 239 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: to anybody that went to hbc U, and I thought 240 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: I was gonna go to this Historically by college, somebody 241 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 1: was gonna realize how gifted I was and give me 242 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: a talk show. And so, in an effort to do that, 243 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: I uh went on the Rolanda show at the time 244 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: with the young lady I was dating and Professor my 245 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: love for her because I thought going on Rolanda show uh, 246 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: and and being on there, she was gonna be like, Oh, 247 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: he's the one, we gotta give him a talk show next. 248 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: It didn't happen, um and so uh. But once I 249 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: once I left school and started working professional in the business, 250 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: and you know, my first act was that of an 251 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: entertainment news writer and one of the first interviews I 252 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: actually did was with Rolando Watts. I went to l 253 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: l a h to the Soul Trade Awards as a 254 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: guest of Coca Cola at the time, and went to 255 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: this restaurant with my mentor, the legendary media personality Tanya 256 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: Heart and her husband, and Rolanda came and stopped by 257 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: the restaurant to say hello to me, to meet me 258 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: in person. And so she as someone who I was 259 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: a fan of, who I aspired to have a morsel 260 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: of the success that she had in the business, and 261 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: then someone at one point that I ultimately became friends with. 262 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: And so when we were mapping out uh and shaping 263 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: what we wanted to share the show to be, we 264 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: were talking about voices and voiceover. There were several people 265 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: we were looking at and Sherry looked at me one 266 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: day and said, I've always loved the uniqueness and the 267 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: richness of Rolanda's voice, and that's what I want to 268 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: hear right before I walked through the door. And so 269 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: to not only have roland to be the voice of 270 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: our show, but to have her come and sit in 271 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: the audience on our premiere episode, it really was a 272 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,839 Speaker 1: full circle moment for me because I went from sitting 273 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: in the audience of her talk show as a high 274 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: school kid to her being in the show that I'm 275 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: executive producing alongside Sherry Shepherd, And it really was a 276 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 1: truth full circle moment. Now we say the worries that 277 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: could produce it, We're gonna talk about that in a minute. 278 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: But sometimes I see your face. You're a handsome face 279 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: on TV comments. So so when you say Roshan, when 280 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: I graduated from Norfolk, I went up to Rlanda, I'll 281 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: try to be I talk to your host. I'm not 282 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: saying you talk to your host, but you make an 283 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: appearances on the successful talk to your job. Talk about 284 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: how that from from a creative standpoint, how did that 285 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: come about it? Because it's very effective. Thank you, Richard, 286 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: you listen.

And 294 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: so yes, I've been wrangled into the on camera executive 295 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: producer role and it's great. You know. Again, one of 296 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: the things that really work, particularly in the daytime space 297 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: for Sean and you know this is that authentic chemistry works, 298 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: you know, and the fact that Sherry and I have 299 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: a real life relationship in addition to our working relationship, 300 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: it resonates with people on camera. And so she was 301 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: just telling me the conversation the other day that one 302 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: of the things that she loves to hear about is 303 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: people just love to hear us have our moments on camera, 304 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: you know, and that we are able to thread our 305 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,359 Speaker 1: real life experiences into some of these wonky and funny 306 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: and hilarious stories. You know, sometimes I'm teasing her as 307 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: we're talking about something that man have to do with divorce. 308 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't want her to marry that that 309 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: second knucklehead. Or or sometimes because Sherry is like a 310 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 1: real life I love Lucy. She forgets a factoid or 311 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: something and a story or something that she's talking about, 312 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: and because I'm like this top culture enthusiasts, I'm able 313 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 1: to fill in the blank and help her continue the journey. 314 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: So man, it's it's it's really a beautiful thing. It's 315 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: a magical thing. But more than anything, this is an 316 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: authentic presentation of how we are in real life. We'll 317 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: be right back with more Money Making Conversations Masterclass with 318 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: Rashan McDonald.

Rachan. Let me 333 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: tell you, um that that was really special because I 334 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: had never met really Tyra Banks before. Um. I think 335 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: I saw her in passing sometime won't but we've never 336 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 1: had a moment. And so before our show, both Sherry 337 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: and I individually go up and we greet our guests 338 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: and we welcome them, uh, you know, to our home. 339 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: And it really sets the tone for people's experience at 340 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: the show, um, because you know, they feel safe, they 341 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: know that they're coming to a place that there's no 342 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 1: gotcha moments and we're not ambushing anybody, like come and 343 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 1: have a good time with us. And so I went 344 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: up to me to greet Tyra Banks. And you know, 345 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: one of our producers here at Sherry used to be 346 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 1: her personal assistant, and Tyra Banks has shot her talk 347 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: show in the very same studio that we're in right now. 348 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 1: And so this producer, who has his own office now, 349 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: used to work inside of the dressing room where Sherry's 350 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 1: dressing women is. And so Tyra's I'm telling Tyra, did 351 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: you do you know your former producer Joe Colo Sante 352 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: is uh, your former assistant Joe was a producer here. 353 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: She had no ideas, so she had me go get 354 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: Joe so she could see him. And and so by 355 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: the time they had had their moment and we got 356 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: down and take these the segments for the show. After 357 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 1: Tyra's second segment, she asked me because she gave me 358 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: a hug, and I said absolutely, And she says, I 359 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: just have to tell you seeing you here inspires me. 360 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: She says, because when I was doing this, there weren't 361 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 1: blackmail executive producers. And she said, my manager at the 362 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: time as a black man, and he got the executive 363 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: producer credit, but he wasn't actually doing the work. They 364 00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: tell me, you're actually doing the work, and I want 365 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: to say that you keep doing it because I'm inspired 366 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: at seeing you here. Man. It touched me because the 367 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: truth of the matter is, there have not been a 368 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 1: lot of us for Shan you know, you worked in 369 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: the space. You know, Twitch became an executive producer at 370 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: Ellen and that's a good brother there. He reached out 371 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,480 Speaker 1: to me and and was so supportive when I was 372 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: going through my journey. Um, and you know, and they've 373 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: been one or two others in the space, but they're 374 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: few and far between. And you know, not only had 375 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,160 Speaker 1: what tyres has to be meant a lot, but um 376 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: Heather Gray, who was the executive producer in the Showrun 377 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: at the Talk, who passed this summer uh past, three 378 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,920 Speaker 1: days before we were supposed to meet in person, because 379 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 1: over the last year she and I had become fast friends, 380 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: and once this opportunity presented itself, she was one of 381 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: the people who was there with me at every turn, 382 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: encouraging me, coaching me, giving me insight on my journey. 383 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: I also got to acknowledge the great Bill Getty, who 384 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: helped create the View with Barbara Walters. He was so 385 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: wonderful to me while I was going through my negotiations 386 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 1: and taking this pivot with Sherry to make sure I 387 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 1: was in power with information and tools and knowledge that 388 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: I needed to be effective in this space. And when 389 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: we're all stepping into a new area. You know, we 390 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: all need community. You know, sometimes people like to hold 391 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 1: stuff close to invest and we'd like to move in secrecy. 392 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: And it's great to be discreet about the things you 393 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: have going on, but sometimes you have to lean into 394 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 1: the excellence that other people have and let them give 395 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,239 Speaker 1: you a perspective that's going to sharpen your iron.

One of the blessings that 418 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: I had before going on this journey with Sherry was that, uh, 419 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 1: I was like a road mc man. I was always 420 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: on the weekend hosting events, holding the microphone on a 421 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: plane in the hotel, and I really loved it. It 422 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,639 Speaker 1: was you know, it was the thing that was my 423 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 1: constant in between the inconsistency of the TV world. Um, 424 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: what I'm grateful about is a lot of that is 425 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: being enhanced now that that I'm on this journey with Sherry, 426 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: because because I'm one of a few people who are 427 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: thriving in the space where black men haven't had great success. 428 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: You know, we are few and far between. Um, people 429 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: want to want to hear about that, They want to 430 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 1: learn about that, and um, you know, and I'm open 431 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 1: to sharing and encouraging and inspiring. So it's great to 432 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: be able to move back in some of the same 433 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: space as I've already had success in with this, with 434 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: this new victory under my belt, you know, I'm excited 435 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: to go to Chicago and do this, uh, the summit 436 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: with Lewis Carr, because the truth of the matter is, 437 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: they're not a lot of spaces where uh safe places 438 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: where black men can find a refuge in community with 439 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: each other. Like if you didn't pledge one of the 440 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: HBCU Greek Letter fraternities, Um, you don't necessarily unless you 441 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: grew up in a house full of brothers. There are 442 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 1: always places that once you reach a certain level of 443 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 1: success or you're thriving in a particular area professionally, that 444 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: that you can find safety and refuge with each other, 445 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: you know. And so I'm grateful to be going to 446 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 1: a place that it was a summit built just around 447 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: this men finding black men finding success in their respective 448 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 1: genres coming together for an informative, empowering and informational two 449 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: day summit. I mean, I'm grateful that both Lewis and 450 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: Nicole Pittman, who works with him on it. I thought 451 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: enough of me to invite me long before the show premiered, 452 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: to come in and play a part in this. And 453 00:22:56,440 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 1: so I'm in a place, uh Shaun, and you know 454 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 1: this journey because you've done it yourself.

And that's one 463 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: of the things that means more than me than anything, 464 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: taking a chance on people who can maximize this opportunity 465 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 1: and use it to do some other great things. You know, 466 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 1: Cherry always talks about chef Melbourne Wilson, who if you've 467 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 1: ever come to New York City, everybody goes up to 468 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 1: Melbourne and Harlem um.

She's had such great success her philanthropic work. 470 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: But we had her join us a few times when 471 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,159 Speaker 1: Sherry was guest hosting for Wendy Williams, and not that 472 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: that opportunity contributed to her next blessing, but shortly thereafter 473 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 1: she got called in two guest hosts with Ryan Seacrest 474 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: on Live with Kelly and Ryan, which is the number 475 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: one show and all of the daytime nobody else does, 476 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: I mean outside of the View, but they are the 477 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: number one show in syndication, which the view as a 478 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: network TV show.

But but I'm also of the 510 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: generation that, like I remember life before social media was 511 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: our everything, and before before al Gore's Internet was our everything, 512 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: and so I remember what it was like to have 513 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: to go to a convention and shake hands and take 514 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: a deep breath before you had to network and introduce 515 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 1: yourself to somebody. So I remember getting the number to 516 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: the E network UH from a phone book. I called 517 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: over to the network while I was a student at 518 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: Norfolk State University and I left a voicemail message for 519 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: a producer that was producing the show that Tanya Heart 520 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: was doing on E at the time. And she called 521 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 1: this young college student back and was like, the producer 522 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,919 Speaker 1: called me and gave me your number, and I just 523 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 1: had to call and see who this ambitious young man 524 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: was that reached out to me and said he was 525 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: really inspired by my career. And Tanya sat on the 526 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 1: phone with a perfect stranger and a dorm run down 527 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: in North Virginia and talked to me for ninety minutes, 528 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: and at the end of that call, she said to me, 529 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: I can't wait to meet you in person. And if 530 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: forever there's an opportunity where you're applying for a job, 531 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: just put my company on your resume and say you're 532 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: one of my East Coast contributors. And just having somebody 533 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: take a chance on me like that unseen really helped, 534 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And then, Uh, there's a 535 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: personality on Serious XM's Heart and Soul. Her name is 536 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: Michelle Wright. I was an intern at the radio station 537 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: in Washington, d C. And Michelle saw this ambitious, hungry 538 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: intern and took me under her wing and had me 539 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: start to help produce content for her midday show. And 540 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: when I went back to college that fall, Michelle started 541 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: paying me out of her pocket and sending me a 542 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,879 Speaker 1: stipend to help create this content for her for her 543 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: midday show. So she was technically my first boss in 544 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: the business because she's the first person that ever paid 545 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: me to do work in the entertainment industry. So both 546 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 1: of those women are two women that have been very 547 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: pivotal and very key in my success, and they've been 548 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: so many other great people. I mean, listen, Rochelle, there 549 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: were times when I was being I was being tested 550 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: for a game show and I called you and you 551 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: really walked me through the nuances and the house and 552 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: the how nots and you know what to do and 553 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 1: what not to do. Is while I was on that journey, 554 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: and then you were talking earlier about like owning my space, 555 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: and and and not feeling competitive with other people. And 556 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 1: I have to say, my big brother, Roller Martin said 557 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 1: something to me years ago that always stuck with me. 558 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: He was like cat nobody out rolling Roller Martin, and 559 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: he was like, you know, I'm gonna beat me, and 560 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna beat me unapologetically. And the reason why I 561 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,199 Speaker 1: never get intimidated by any of my peers is I 562 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: know when I show up, whether it's John the personality, 563 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,719 Speaker 1: you know, the TV talent, the host, or whether it's 564 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: John the producer, John the brains, John the strategist, John 565 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: the visionary, the creative, I know that I bring my 566 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 1: best self to all of those situations. And if for 567 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: some reason people like what you do different than I do, 568 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: the that's your blessing, that's not mine. So I've never 569 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: been nervous or intimidated by it by being embody else's 570 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: spaces because you came out John John Murray, you know. 571 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: And so that was one of the gifts that Roland 572 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: Martin got me, and it really helped shape my approcedes 573 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: because we can't slip into accidental compare editiveness. We can't 574 00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: slip into these toxic behaviors of wanting or emulating or 575 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: desiring what we see other people have. But the other 576 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: thing that I've learned through trial and there is prison. 577 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: I don't know the story behind your glory, and so 578 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: it looks good on the outside, but I might not 579 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: want to go through the sleepless nights and the crying 580 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: morments and and the bankruptcies are whatever other things you 581 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: had to go through to become excellence that you are. 582 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: I don't. I may not want to go through all that. 583 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: So finding my own path and my own journey is 584 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: the best path for me because the struggles and the 585 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: obstacles that I've had to face to get to this point, 586 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to share those with anybody else, And 587 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: you don't want to share yours with me, you know. 588 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: I tell you you can't out John John Merrin.

They know they need 668 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: especially creating recruitment, engagement and then also retention because uh 669 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 1: wwise to camp. You know, the military recruitment has always 670 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: receiving another lot of negative backlash. They're not meeting there, 671 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 1: the number of which will become dangerous here pretty soon. 672 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: Talk to So all right, so what's funny is I 673 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: have government as my number one goal for three so 674 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: you just speaking the prophecying over there. So yes, I 675 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: have as my goal to because here's one thing I know, 676 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: ra Sean is no matter what you do, your purpose 677 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: is of one thing you never get fired from. So 678 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 1: you gotta a line that with your work, not only 679 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: will you love it, but you're overperformed everybody else. So yes, 680 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: definitely I'm looking into more government because, like I said, 681 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: that's the world, and I'm really talking about that military side, 682 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 1: you know, the army, the neighbor, all of all those 683 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: little closely always said because of the fact that you know, 684 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: you know, it's like the police. You complain about the 685 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 1: police team just dibnine one one, okay, you complain about 686 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: the army, you said, who's protecting our borders? Okay? So 687 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 1: that means that there are people out there that we 688 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 1: need to be able to position to do those things. 689 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: And let's go back to a little bit because I 690 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: love the fact that you do now because you've always 691 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,760 Speaker 1: been a person that has you know, sought out talent, 692 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,919 Speaker 1: had an eye for talent in your casting days, let's 693 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: talk about that because being a person that we didn't 694 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 1: for auditions, who mailed his head chat in trying to 695 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: get cast, that was always an annoying part of my life. 696 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 1: What were you looking for in that genre when you 697 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: was talking when you was when you was doing talent 698 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: management and also casting. You know It's interesting, is I've 699 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 1: always been since I was four or five years old, 700 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: someone that could see people's natural talent. And my friends 701 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: called it bossy back then, and I would like make 702 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 1: suggestions of what you should do. So when I worked 703 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 1: in TV and film, the thing that was easy for 704 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: me is when you came in for an audition, I 705 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: could see you, so I can look past where you 706 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 1: could act or not. That was a whole a noother conversation. 707 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,919 Speaker 1: I could see you and how you could fit into 708 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: the script. Acting is you know, you have to be 709 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: able to act to do that piece, but on just 710 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: that I had to be able to see you inside 711 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 1: of that role. So I think that was my gift, 712 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: and that's really what I do when entrepreneurs now is 713 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: being able to see or even corporate executives being able 714 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: to see who you be I have that aligns with 715 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:17,359 Speaker 1: the work that you should do because sometimes people going 716 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: from one role and you know your fit bet over here, 717 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 1: M and so and so that's important when sometimes in 718 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 1: jobs that you do. You might be doing this job, 719 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 1: but they may not be your strength. How do you 720 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,479 Speaker 1: break down the people the reality of what they gift 721 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 1: really is versus what they want to do? Hm? Hm, 722 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: that's so good. So I think many of us grow 723 00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: up in culture where we make lists, right, I want 724 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: two point five kids, I want to have this house. 725 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 1: I'm gonna work in this career. But we don't stop 726 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: long enough to tap into our soul and we really 727 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 1: understand who we be at our core. So it's really 728 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: looking beyond what the world says, what perception says, and 729 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 1: the list that we make to really get to know 730 00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 1: yourself on a deeper level. I think when I'm meets 731 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 1: many people, it's not even that your original list isn't 732 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 1: an alignment with what you're great at. It maybe that 733 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: you just have outgrown that place like that, and so 734 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: it's really going to that next level. You know. Oftentimes 735 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 1: I say God doesn't rumble you up because he's like, 736 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: okay with where you are. He's looking for who you 737 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: have not yet come And it's in that place that 738 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 1: we've got to do the work to move to your 739 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: next you know, what I always talk about on this 740 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: show A lot of people. You know, it's an entrepreneur show, 741 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 1: really is a show about life because you know I 742 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,320 Speaker 1: talk about the relationships. That's what this show is about. 743 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,200 Speaker 1: Because if you don't have poor community, you have poor 744 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 1: communication and relationship. You don't have a relationship. Same thing 745 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: that's your job, same thing as a business, don't same 746 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: thing as an entrepreneur. So do you take that global 747 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: perspective when you're talking to you to clients or talking 748 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: to people trying to motivate them, and realize that the 749 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: skill that you're giving them should be universal. M hm. 750 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: So really, to be honest with you, it's not even 751 00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 1: about you. So when you think about what you do 752 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: for a living, it's about listen, profit where profit means gain. 753 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 1: So ultimately the goal is this, how are you gaining 754 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: for that person you If you're read about gaining for 755 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: your pocketbook, you're always gonna behind. And I'm not saying 756 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: don't make money, because we have money making conversations, but 757 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 1: if you can up level that and I understand that 758 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 1: when you bless somebody with the thing that you do, 759 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: their gaining and ultimately, when you do the thing that 760 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 1: you were born to do, your gaining for God because 761 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 1: what you're doing is moving in agenda forward as you 762 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: bless the people that need you. So it's bigger than 763 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,760 Speaker 1: just a check. It's about what impact are you making 764 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 1: with the thing that you do. So I'm speaking to 765 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 1: Dr Dr Nicole and Robert Jones, and it's about when 766 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: I bring on the show. She has a lot of 767 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 1: natural instincts, and so we all have natural instincts, but 768 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: it's how you allow them to manifest themselves to your dreams, 769 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 1: you know, and when you start talking about multiple streams 770 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: of income, and that's I read that out in her credit. 771 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: You know, she always emphasized that can you explain to 772 00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,879 Speaker 1: people what exactly that is this in case they don't know. Um. So, 773 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 1: as an entrepreneur, if you're only working with your clients 774 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,399 Speaker 1: and you have to be present, you already capping off 775 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: two things. Obviously, you know, I'm gonna say how much 776 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: money you make, but it's also how much transformation that 777 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 1: you're able to impact in this world. So when you 778 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,840 Speaker 1: think about all the ways you can take your DNA, 779 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 1: your distinct natural ability and package it into multiple ways 780 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: you can serve people most of them, some of them, 781 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: I would say most, but some of them should be 782 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: what I call making money while you sleep. So right now, 783 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: somebody's going through one of my programs and I'm not there. 784 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: I'm here with you. You know. I've had clients in 785 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: Singapore and rub and listen Singapore a usually when I'm 786 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: sleep there awake, and vice versa. That means that they 787 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: were going through a program or they were going through 788 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: one of my programs online and I wasn't present. So 789 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 1: when you look at all the ways that I think, 790 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: if I give you a concrete example, um, a lawyer 791 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: that I work with before, and most lawyers think and 792 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: this is replies to everybody that you know they have 793 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: to be present and or lawyer's like why can't give 794 00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: legal advice? But there are a whole lot of things 795 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 1: that you know because you would do law school that 796 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: the typical person doesn't know. So the lawyer that I'm 797 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: thinking of in general or specifically, whether I should say, 798 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,640 Speaker 1: is a family practice lawyer. And when I said to her, 799 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:11,480 Speaker 1: what do people come to you for the most, and 800 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 1: she said divorce? I said, how many people do you 801 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 1: turn away because they can't afford you abillable hours? She said, 802 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 1: oh a lot. If you walk them through how to 803 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 1: fill out their own paperwork online. At least they would 804 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: get something. It's better than nothing. And then you also 805 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,800 Speaker 1: get something in return. It's called money in your revenue 806 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,880 Speaker 1: in your business. So looking at all the ways that 807 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: you're leaving transformation behind because you're only looking one dimensionally 808 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 1: at your gift. You know, I think that I call 809 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: the mailbox money. You know you open the mailbox, lord chick, 810 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 1: that's mail box money. That some people used terminology you 811 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,359 Speaker 1: know money, But are you sleep which is another terminology. 812 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: The bottom line is that if you are physically tied 813 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,839 Speaker 1: to the money that you make, that means that you 814 00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: are physically tied to that, which means that you can't 815 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 1: get sick, which means that you have to worry about 816 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:03,840 Speaker 1: days off, which means you have to worry about vacation, 817 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 1: which you have to worry and not saying that mailbox 818 00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:10,000 Speaker 1: money prevents that from happening. But guess what if you 819 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 1: got another job and you get mailbox money, and you 820 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: got another job and you making money while you sleep. 821 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 1: That determines the level of conversation. What was saying multiple 822 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 1: streams of income? Yeah, I never give you another example 823 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,720 Speaker 1: of you don't mind because some people think this doesn't 824 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: apply to them. I had a woman who was a gymnast. 825 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: They used to train kids. Now when I met her, 826 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: she was in the authorities, and I said to her, 827 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: how much more are you gonna be able to flip? 828 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 1: Let's keep it all the way real, so in a minute, 829 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 1: you're not gonna even getting the floor flip. How do 830 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 1: you gonna make money? She was silent. I said, so 831 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: what you need to realize now is how do you 832 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: shift it now before it's too late. And what she 833 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: said to me was because, of course, I suggested that 834 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 1: you hire other people teach some of your methodology, and 835 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: you can have other people teaching it. She said, well, 836 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: if somebody might steal it, I said, girl, do you 837 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: know what the lawyer is Number one? Number two? Why 838 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: don't you buy the gym that you're doing this stuff 839 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 1: in so that you can use it more than just 840 00:41:58,320 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: your classes. You can rent it out, rint off for 841 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: parties and so. So it's really thinking outside of the 842 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 1: box to all the other revenue opportunities that are available 843 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 1: to you instead of just again, think about it in 844 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: one way. Now, you're so funny just changing with Dr 845 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 1: col Robert jon You know if you gotta watch her 846 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 1: listening to her as cool. You gotta watch her. She 847 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,239 Speaker 1: is so expressive. She's one of the people where I 848 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 1: wish I had known that in college she would have 849 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: been a who because she's really you can just come out. 850 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 1: You see the words come out of them out you 851 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: see him. You know you see him, and they like, 852 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 1: they like getting you like. She has something to say. 853 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:39,720 Speaker 1: And that's why I love talking about which means that 854 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 1: that's why she's so successful, because in fact, she's very expressive. 855 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: But if there's a conversation that allows you to believe 856 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: that that that can be part of your DNA. Now, 857 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 1: when we're talking about people who are afraid to create 858 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 1: change in their life, create change in their relationships, I 859 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 1: always keep going back to relationship because a lot of people, 860 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 1: when I can talk talking about create change, start talking 861 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 1: about job, talking about fear. There are people out there 862 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 1: in relationship right now they don't want to be in, 863 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 1: but they're afraid to make change. There are people out 864 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 1: there working jobs for the hours a week. They don't 865 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: want to let. People out there got a hamburger sitting 866 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,360 Speaker 1: on their shaf No, it's no good, but they're afraid 867 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: to make change. I was talking to this company. They 868 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: brought me in. They had me sample all their food. 869 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: I told him what I didn't like about it, because 870 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 1: everybody knows them a food. I said, I hate your fries. 871 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 1: I said, I'm a fried person. Change. Oh no, our 872 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: customers love those fries. But are they what customers? Is 873 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 1: it a bunch of customers or just the customers who 874 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 1: come to that. You're trying to get to the bunch 875 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,680 Speaker 1: of customers. Now, for a bunch of customers like that, 876 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 1: Rishan has nothing to say. But if just a few 877 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: people like those fries and you're trying to get to 878 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: a bunch, change those fries. So that's the conversations you're 879 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: You're holing into people all the time. People are resistant 880 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 1: to change.

Everyone says faith is a substance of things. 887 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 1: Hope for the evidence of things not seen. So you're 888 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 1: limiting what's possible by only by what you can see. 889 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,879 Speaker 1: And when God is wanting something inside of you, it's 890 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,160 Speaker 1: always gonna be bigger than what you say. I know 891 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 1: why I'm gonna get into the Bible.

Oh? This is easy, so you 940 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:46,880 Speaker 1: give away content, context, advice, and if I give you 941 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:48,920 Speaker 1: a tangible Except I have a girlfriend that's a journalist 942 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,279 Speaker 1: and she was talking about people call her and try, 943 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, to ask how she got on TV.

So it's really understanding how do 948 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:08,240 Speaker 1: you not understanding? It's really seeing that you have value 949 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 1: that people will pay for. That makes a difference. Right, Well, 950 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: it's kind of interesting because I guess the level of 951 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,959 Speaker 1: people that call me, because you know, they would probably 952 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,440 Speaker 1: not be signing up for online class. Go who just 953 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 1: goes to I go? Well, I think just these some advice. 954 00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 1: But I know that exactly, and I think maybe one 955 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 1: day I'll sit down with you, Dr Jones, because I 956 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 1: need that coaching. You know, because people always tell me 957 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:35,400 Speaker 1: that I hear the word genius, uh, brilliant, ability to 958 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,799 Speaker 1: the marketing brand things. I've done it so many years consistently, 959 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 1: but I haven't been able to wrapped my head around 960 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 1: how does that feel like a course? How do you 961 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 1: look like a person like me? They tell me I 962 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 1: need to write a book. You know. Some people said, man, 963 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:51,960 Speaker 1: any documentary on you? You know? So, but these are compliments. 964 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:54,920 Speaker 1: But how do you turn compliments into revenue? So the 965 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 1: first thing that I do with my clients is we 966 00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: create what I call a blueprint or a method adology. 967 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 1: So because you cannot see the label from inside the jar, 968 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:05,759 Speaker 1: what do I mean by that? Okay, so don't judge me. 969 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,200 Speaker 1: This is not cool. Like this is vitamin water, Okay, 970 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 1: but on this water bottle there is a label. If 971 00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 1: you live inside a jar, and the labels on outside, 972 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,840 Speaker 1: you can't see what you do. So then when you 973 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:19,959 Speaker 1: try this is why it's Hartyra Shane, when you try 974 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 1: to then package what you do into some kind of 975 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 1: methodology to teach people, it's hard because you just do 976 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 1: it effortlessly. So helping some having someone that can produce 977 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:32,200 Speaker 1: you this is where I say my TV and from 978 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 1: from casting to producing comes into play, because really what 979 00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 1: I do is take you through an exercise. When I'm 980 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 1: producing the value that is coming out of you effortlessly, 981 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 1: I can see it. We write it down, we create 982 00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:42,800 Speaker 1: a methodology from it. Now, what do I mean by that? 983 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,440 Speaker 1: Most people have a think about it like this. When 984 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,839 Speaker 1: I wake up in the morning and I washed my face, 985 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: I have a whole routine that I rushed my teeth, 986 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: wash my face, put on my makeup. If I forget 987 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 1: to do something, it is because I did something out 988 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:58,719 Speaker 1: of order. I have a methodology and so when I'm 989 00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 1: outside of it's something off and I can feel it. 990 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 1: It's the same way we each function in our gifts 991 00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:06,320 Speaker 1: and we don't realize it because we're on autopilot. So 992 00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,920 Speaker 1: it's really taking the time to have someone help you 993 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 1: do that, and you can't do it because again, you 994 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 1: can't see the light BOLB. So there'll be things that 995 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 1: you overlook, which we intrinsically all do that you know 996 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:19,880 Speaker 1: one percent agree with this habit because like when I travel, 997 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,120 Speaker 1: if I break tradition, like for Insch, I travel, will 998 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,920 Speaker 1: always have a carry bag, and sometimes I have a 999 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 1: carry bag I can put in the up top. Like 1000 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,319 Speaker 1: when I went to Orlando last week, I didn't bring 1001 00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 1: the carry bag to put up top. I just check 1002 00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:36,800 Speaker 1: luggage and child. When I got off from that plane seat, 1003 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:41,240 Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, something uncomfortable, right, somethings are comfortable. 1004 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 1: Something that's comfortable. And it's the same thing like I've 1005 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 1: left maybe two coach on the plane. You know, they 1006 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 1: come to you and you check them. Because I broke habit, 1007 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: you know I didn't. You really have to be aware 1008 00:49:55,840 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 1: of doing things successfully and a have it way. Because 1009 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 1: you break habit, it does impact your life. Yeah yeah, 1010 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 1: and so what in essence you have to do is 1011 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 1: take the thing that you've been doing. Look, every morning 1012 00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:10,520 Speaker 1: when I wake up, I can't wake up and say 1013 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:12,440 Speaker 1: I think I feel like being reshawn today. Yeah, that 1014 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 1: will not work every day automatically in the cold. So again, 1015 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: there's things that I do that I don't even realize 1016 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 1: that I'm doing. My husband sometimes laughs at me, like 1017 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 1: do you realize you do this? Like I laugh, and 1018 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:23,960 Speaker 1: then I always got the end of me laugh and 1019 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 1: I'm like, I didn't know I did that. So it's 1020 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:28,359 Speaker 1: again that's who I am and what I do because 1021 00:50:28,360 --> 00:50:29,880 Speaker 1: I laugh really hardy and I feel like I need 1022 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:31,680 Speaker 1: to breathe after I laugh. That's for me what that is. 1023 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 1: But I'm sharing that because all of us do things 1024 00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,160 Speaker 1: that we don't realize that we're doing. So it's really 1025 00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:38,920 Speaker 1: taken the time to hire someone that can pull that 1026 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 1: out of you so that you can then create programming 1027 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:46,560 Speaker 1: from that. That is the yummy stuff that gets left 1028 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,600 Speaker 1: out when people are building businesses. I am going to 1029 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:51,719 Speaker 1: We're going to connect because I think that I need 1030 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 1: to bring you into my life to develop that platform 1031 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 1: because I really don't know what to do. I really 1032 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: don't know. But everything you're saying is absolutely correct, and 1033 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 1: if you have time, I will. You know, this interview 1034 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 1: is about you what I do for a living. I mean, 1035 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 1: I'm getting personal or now you know, like this is 1036 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 1: my show just about me? Now you know about you 1037 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,800 Speaker 1: know more Hey, what what time can we connect so 1038 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 1: I can tell you my life stories to we can 1039 00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: make some money, because that's what it's about. It's about 1040 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,759 Speaker 1: making money, but making money off your experience, making money 1041 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,600 Speaker 1: off your value. And then but it's also you know, 1042 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:28,680 Speaker 1: stepping out of your comfort zone. And I think that's 1043 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: one of the things that you talk about a lot, 1044 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 1: because I can't do what you do, like you just said, 1045 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 1: I can't wake up into jan because but but I 1046 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 1: gotta lean in your direction because you're a truth. And 1047 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 1: if there's another thing to Rishan when you think about 1048 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 1: that is there will be some people I think, oh, 1049 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 1: she's too much and I am too much for you, 1050 00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 1: But there are some people that love me because I'm 1051 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,719 Speaker 1: I'm very animated. That's who I am. So some people 1052 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:54,839 Speaker 1: try to turn it down. I stopped letting people turn 1053 00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 1: down my life. This is who I am. I didn't 1054 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 1: create this. God did. So what I'm saying when I 1055 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:02,720 Speaker 1: turned down my life is God made a mistake. Instead 1056 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 1: of being all of who I am and knowing that 1057 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 1: there are some people that I'm assigned and aligned with 1058 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 1: and some I'm not, and that's okay. That's for all 1059 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 1: of us and the more you get clear on that, 1060 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 1: the better your life, your business. Even. I love how 1061 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 1: you talk about relationships. Everything is relafe. It's how we 1062 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 1: relate to one another. And so when you start to 1063 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: be you fully and completely, that's when people can really 1064 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: relate with you. And that's that's really the truth. And 1065 00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: I think that there's a comfort zone with you in 1066 00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:34,319 Speaker 1: communicating because I interviewed people all the time. I can't 1067 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 1: tell you how many people I probably could have said, 1068 00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 1: you know so Nicole, dr Kole, Robert shows and we 1069 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:43,560 Speaker 1: need to connect because I can't do something because my 1070 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 1: whole career is tied to Roshane McDonald knows everything ras 1071 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 1: Sean McDonald. I remember Steve Harvey said, Richane, do you 1072 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:53,800 Speaker 1: really think you know everything? I go, yeah, what do 1073 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 1: you want to do? Say no? That that that's the 1074 00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:57,439 Speaker 1: type part of my DNA. My part of my DNA 1075 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 1: is to have answers. And that's what makes me successful 1076 00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 1: when people come to me with answers. And so when 1077 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 1: you when so if I tell people publicly that as 1078 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,560 Speaker 1: a leader, you know, they always tell you can't show 1079 00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 1: any signs of weakness, and so that sometimes as a leader, 1080 00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 1: you caend not go to somebody who may be a subordinate. 1081 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 1: That's saying you're a subordinate, but somebody else who has 1082 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,360 Speaker 1: a different skill set and admit you can't do that, 1083 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,160 Speaker 1: and they might use that against you. I'm just telling 1084 00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 1: you you've created a conference zone with me that I 1085 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:29,759 Speaker 1: don't feel a negative spirit when I tell you I 1086 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:32,280 Speaker 1: need your help. Well, here's the other thing too, Rashan, 1087 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 1: I don't think any of us are born to fit 1088 00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:36,840 Speaker 1: in the box. Each of us were born to disrupt 1089 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:39,239 Speaker 1: whatever system are called to work in. What do I 1090 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,400 Speaker 1: mean by that? So if I work in corporate, corporate 1091 00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: is already corporate. Corporate doesn't need more of corporate. So 1092 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 1: if I go in there with all my flowery you know, 1093 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 1: bolt colors and I'm all animated, they love it. But 1094 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 1: some people will try to fit in the box of 1095 00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:53,399 Speaker 1: corporate and go in there, and they wonder why they're 1096 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:55,880 Speaker 1: not coming back for more and more. Corporate doesn't need 1097 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,839 Speaker 1: more of corporate, and they're hiring you because they need 1098 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,400 Speaker 1: you to be different than that system. And so I 1099 00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 1: think so many of us trying to fit into a box, 1100 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:06,680 Speaker 1: and God never intended for us to fit any kind 1101 00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:10,040 Speaker 1: of box. Well, I didn't know someone she's not fitting 1102 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:15,320 Speaker 1: in my box. I'm talking at very formative speaker. She'll 1103 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: tell you how to bank roll your brilliance, Doctor n 1104 00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:20,279 Speaker 1: Co Robert Jones. Now, what's what's in the future. We're 1105 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:23,399 Speaker 1: going into three. I already gave you. I always spoke 1106 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: some some gifts into the into the world about working 1107 00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 1: for the government. Yeah, in the fourth court, I always 1108 00:54:29,040 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 1: know in the fourth quarter, I planned for the first 1109 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 1: quarter for four planning for the first quarter to the 1110 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:35,839 Speaker 1: upcoming year. And now you know you think the same way. 1111 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:39,480 Speaker 1: Tell you our audience how you do that. So at 1112 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:42,120 Speaker 1: the actually octold her every year I sit down and 1113 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:44,279 Speaker 1: plan my entire next year. And the reason I do 1114 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:47,680 Speaker 1: that is because when things are planned and stuff happens, 1115 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 1: you'll plans don't always work out the way you plan 1116 00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 1: them out. But when you have a plan, you can 1117 00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:54,880 Speaker 1: move stuff around easily instead of you could be proactive 1118 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 1: rather than reactive. When COVID had already had things planned out, 1119 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 1: I moved stuff around because COVID happened. So yeah, I 1120 00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 1: always sit down some from quarter one. I'm working on 1121 00:55:05,160 --> 00:55:07,200 Speaker 1: my next book, so, by the grace of God, I'll 1122 00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:10,439 Speaker 1: have a book deal this time. Instead of self publishing. Hello, 1123 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 1: come on, lord right, So that's one and then I 1124 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 1: told you I'm going into the government. Um sector is 1125 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:18,840 Speaker 1: those are my two big goals for top of Okay, 1126 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:22,640 Speaker 1: you forgot the third one, Rushan McDonald. Okay, that's a 1127 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:27,160 Speaker 1: giving what you can't let me. You can't let people 1128 00:55:27,200 --> 00:55:29,600 Speaker 1: forget your dreams? Now, you know, just to keep that 1129 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:33,360 Speaker 1: she said, that's a given. Nothing. This reminds you Roushan 1130 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:37,279 Speaker 1: is not doing an interview personality here. I'm telling you 1131 00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 1: that I feel the spirit I said, and the spirit 1132 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:44,360 Speaker 1: is that you have to you. You know that you 1133 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 1: know I'm only getting older. I feel good about how 1134 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 1: look at what I do. But somewhere along the line, 1135 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 1: I have to listen to what people keep telling me 1136 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:57,439 Speaker 1: sometime on the daily basis, weekly basis, monthly basis. Sharing 1137 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:00,480 Speaker 1: your gifts are undeniable. You think you thinks that are 1138 00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: very unique and share able. Uh and and you do 1139 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:07,560 Speaker 1: the same thing, Dr Jones. And and it's time for 1140 00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 1: me to come to a person like you and allow 1141 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,279 Speaker 1: you to unleash some gifts that I have hidden. And 1142 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,839 Speaker 1: so I want to thank you for coming finally coming 1143 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:19,239 Speaker 1: to my show because we've like schedule.

The first time, 1145 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:26,719 Speaker 1: the studio did some praises like what's going on? Yes, yes, 1146 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 1: I need to be here and let me let me 1147 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 1: just say this. You know, even with us talking about you, 1148 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,320 Speaker 1: what you're looking to do is create your legacy.
