We're gonna ask you later like where 58 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: to set the social scheme. But that's when I would 59 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: put up there. 60 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 3: To me, CAN has been like, first off, it's now 61 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 3: on my list for the rest of my life until 62 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 3: they start pushing those niggas out. But it's it's one 63 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 3: of the places where it's been so easy to meet 64 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: other like minded professionals. And to me, just because you're 65 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 3: out there, you black, everyone's dressed to the nine and 66 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 3: everyone is there just to have a good time, and 67 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 3: that when you are having a good time in another 68 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 3: country with someone else, you want to bring that energy. 69 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: Different too than experiencing Like for anyone listening Can's lines festivals, 70 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: what we're talking about it is a creative festival. It 71 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: feels different than afrotech to me because for some reason, 72 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: when you're that far, yeah, it's a different like, oh, 73 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: it's a different vibe. And not only that they know 74 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: that the job you're holding must already be something, yes, 75 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: or if you are an influencer and starting out like 76 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: you've made it this far. I think sometimes the other 77 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: ones can feel a little bit too convention y, like 78 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: too desperate, too, like I need something. I saw a 79 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: lot of bad reviews about Afrotech, and I don't know why, Like, oh, I. 80 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 3: Know a thousand people going No, it's just because black 81 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: people love to talk shit about our own things. Like 82 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 3: they do it with and best fast, they did it 83 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 3: with essence, they do it with like and I literally 84 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 3: talked about this on selective ignorance. There's it's frustrating to see, like, 85 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 3: the more things that we create of our own, right, 86 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 3: we need funding, we need people to give us money. 87 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 3: Baby Di is already gone. So the fact that we 88 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: want to shit on our own, you know, things that 89 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 3: we're creating for ourselves, what it's really doing is hurting 90 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 3: the ability or opportunity that we may have to find 91 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 3: funding or get sponsorships, because maybe if the black people 92 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 3: don't believe in it, how we gonna get the white 93 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: people to believe in it to cut checks. 94 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 1: So to me, that's the bet wards being stepped up. 95 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,119 Speaker 3: I was really they stepped it up and then got 96 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 3: rid of soul train and hip hop. 97 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 4: So it's like, yeah, I do believe black people are 98 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 4: hyper critical, but it's because I don't think they feel 99 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 4: like they have agency. And so when you don'teel like 100 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 4: you have agency to do, then you only have agency 101 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 4: to critique. 102 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 3: But how you can take our own ship. Clearly we 103 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 3: have the agency too, and we see people getting bigger 104 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 3: and bigger and bigger, and it's almost like a bit 105 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 3: of some hate, like you also don't want to see 106 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 3: your own gear and black people excel beyond the thing. 107 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: How you feel like white ice is colder And that's 108 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: why I probably said Kansas bad as shit there it is, 109 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: Oh my god.

And one of the 135 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: things that you've talked about is like leveling up and 136 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: how you're carrying yourself, how you're dressing, which for me 137 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: doesn't look the same because I'm an entrepreneur that doesn't 138 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: have that esthetic. And it's like sometimes I've watched those 139 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: videos and felt a little bit invalidated in the younger 140 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: years of entrepreneurship, like I do this thing, or I 141 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: talk about sex and needing to like own it is 142 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: all also part of the power. 143 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 4: So I don't wait question for you though in terms 144 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 4: of feeling invalidated. 145 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 2: Tell me a little bit more about that, or we 146 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 2: think about what our god damn book, Okay, tell it. 147 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 3: We don't get supported, we don't get asked to inswer 148 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 3: certain space. 149 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 2: And you think it's aesthetic, it's because we're sexually liberated. 150 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 2: It's because of the time I see it. And so 151 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: the problem that. 152 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: I've been having, and it's funny because I just had 153 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 3: an episode shout out to Ashley cop who's a sexpert, 154 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 3: it's the same thing. It's like we're battling with the 155 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,559 Speaker 3: freedom to exist as C suite entrepreneurs and all these things, 156 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 3: while also having the space to own our own autonomy, 157 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: which is being taken away from us through laws, and 158 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 3: then also just being able to be happy with how 159 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 3: we're existing right and we're getting the issues from brands, 160 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 3: from corporations, and then also from other black women even 161 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 3: within the space. And it's what I'm realizing too, is 162 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 3: just like, damn, how much hard can I bitch? New 163 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 3: York Times bestseller now means nothing even to our goddamn publishers. 164 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 3: They're like, yeah, well, if you want to sit here 165 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 3: and promote the book, maybe you need to just go 166 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 3: to sex conventions. 167 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: No, no good. 168 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 3: We were told as New York Times bestsellers with a 169 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 3: book that is being transformative, with a lot of reviews 170 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 3: on Amazon, that actually has has been transforming the way 171 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 3: people view themselves and stepping into their power and overcoming trauma. 172 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 2: Well maybe y'all should go to sex conventions. 173 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 4: What I think, it's difficult because people want to compartmentalize, right, 174 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 4: It's easy. It's human psychology to dictate you look like this, ergo, 175 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 4: you deserve these things and you're this kind of person. However, 176 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 4: you all exist across multitudes, and that is a really 177 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 4: difficult place to be. You all are the pioneers of this, 178 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 4: so you're going to have an undue burden. It's going 179 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 4: to be easier for the next Wheezy and Mandy, But 180 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 4: y'all are the first to do something like this where 181 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 4: you're cascading against entrepreneurship, sex positivity podcasting. You all own 182 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 4: this shit. This is crazy that y'all are owning this. 183 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 4: But unfortunately people don't have the space to hold multiple 184 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 4: truths at once. And that's why when I talk about 185 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 4: like presenting, it's not from a it's not from a 186 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 4: place of being inauthentic. But quite frankly, people make snap judgments. 187 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 4: They're deciding within seven seconds whether to give you the funding, 188 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 4: They're deciding within seven seconds how to engage with you. 189 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 4: Men are deciding in seven seconds, like you said, the 190 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 4: box theory, what category to put you in. And either 191 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 4: you can choose to play the game, which I think 192 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 4: many people do, or you can choose not to, which 193 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 4: is what y'all are doing. But that's incredible and fantastic, Yes. 194 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 2: It is the way like the amount of knows we've 195 00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 2: heard me. 196 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: We even just got into a group chat together with 197 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: with tempests and we were like, oh, we're so sick 198 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 3: a fucking here and no, like we've heard no so 199 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 3: much over the last fucking two years, even like after 200 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 3: the rebrand, and there's still just been like God, damn, 201 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 3: what the fuck can we do? Like and there's a 202 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 3: there's a thing I talk about, like even with shooting 203 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 3: your shot right, being able to accept rejection. Being able 204 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 3: to accept rejection goes around hearing no in so many ways, 205 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 3: so many facets, not just not just dating, like it's 206 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 3: in almost every fucking corner, Like hearing know that much 207 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 3: is like this is exhausting. 208 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 2: It is no. It's exhausting. 209 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 4: It is exhausting. But no is also data. There is 210 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 4: no such thing as a no. It's just information. So 211 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 4: when I hear no, I hear this is information that 212 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 4: I'm getting from this space. What can I do to 213 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 4: alchemize this no? So it's never a no, it's what 214 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 4: are the pieces that I'm So for example, if someone 215 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 4: does a video, this is a very like tepid example. 216 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 4: But if someone does a video and I also do 217 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 4: the same video, my video flops, Their video does fantastic. 218 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,199 Speaker 2: It's a no in terms of the algorithm, it's the know. 219 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 4: In terms of perception, fine, but what I'm able to 220 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 4: do is sit in the know because it's uncomfortable and 221 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 4: it sucks. But also I can either continue to do 222 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 4: that or I can figure out what is this person 223 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 4: doing that's better than me, and how can I alchemize 224 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 4: that information and data to make me better? 225 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: And that is how I've built a platform because. 226 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 4: I've been doing content for a minute and some of 227 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 4: the girls blew up way past me. But what I 228 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 4: was able to do is say, oh, she's doing this, 229 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 4: she has the right lighting, she has the right hook, 230 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 4: she has expyz. So even on a metas scale, and 231 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 4: I'm not comparing a TikTok video to what y'all are 232 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 4: going through, but on a meta scale, no is data. 233 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 4: And I really lead into the note and I actually 234 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 4: think you should chase the nose, especially right now, like 235 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 4: y'all are no. 236 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: But the thing that I'm thinking about with what you're saying, 237 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: especially with the being feeling like sorry, where was validated? 238 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? 239 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, being invalidated by women that are chasing a certain 240 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: life or trying to get somewhere and we look different 241 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,239 Speaker 1: for me. Unfortunately, it did have to come with other accolades, 242 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: like yeah, our podcast did so many numbers, so many 243 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: things that it had broke barriers for so many accomplishments 244 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: we've had, even with like being part of the inception 245 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: of the black Back network that's now huge, just being 246 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 1: those girls, the first girls like just like being unleashed 247 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 1: on this whole big journey that Charlene Charlemagne started. This 248 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: now beyond him when I got back into corporate. So 249 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: Mandy and I left corporate. We were corporate girlies. That 250 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: started our show. When I got to run a podcast division, 251 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: and I mean still doing it when I got to 252 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: do that again, being in a different space showed made 253 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: me feel more powerful, and I hated that it did 254 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: that because the entrepreneurship was really the big deal. I 255 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: left my corporate job, being a sales engineer and working 256 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: in tech to talk about sex for a living make 257 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: more money than I did. But the second I got 258 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,719 Speaker 1: right back into having that kind of title, that made 259 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: me feel good. What's strange to me is how much 260 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: we need the validity from others. The way that I 261 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: felt for my own self was amazing. Oh my god, 262 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: I don't have to get up to where I'm like 263 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: loving it. I'm on vacation, I'm working from home. I 264 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: can record my podcast on Zoom. But the second I 265 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: was on a payroll again, I was like, oop, yeah, 266 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: I'm really doing it. And it's ridiculous because at the 267 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: end of the day, entrepreneurship is the goal for everyone. 268 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: I was working with all of them, all of them, 269 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: all of them, all of them, and they're all like, damn, 270 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: what the fuck made you want to get back and 271 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: do this. I'm like, I don't fucking know, but I 272 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,599 Speaker 1: will say my aesthetic. Learn to lean in and love it. 273 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: It was weird for me for the first year of 274 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: being single after relationship, because I thought, oh, I'm starting 275 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: to have a look. I didn't have as many tattoos, 276 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 1: I didn't have a septum ring when I got with him. 277 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: But this is my thing. Things I like and what 278 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: I learned is like my tribe is my tribe. Like 279 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: the men I'm looking for kind of look the same. Right. 280 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: I don't really do well with finance bros because most don't. 281 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 2: I would say most don't. 282 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 3: I don't the baby doing cochi shit.

They don't have friends that check them 323 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 3: because the friends are on the paywall, and so in 324 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 3: terms of how they show up in relationships, it's very surface, 325 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 3: it's very lonely. 326 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: It's very empty. 327 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 3: And then you do have to realize that is going 328 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 3: to be a person that you share that will most 329 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 3: likely embarrass you. 330 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: And now you know what's interesting though, what because I 331 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: know a lot of your content has been about rich men. 332 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: In that discussion, people would say that for any rich guy. 333 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 2: Do you do you believe that about any rich men? 334 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 4: I do believe that about any rich man. I think 335 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 4: I believe that about a lot of men. Actually, they 336 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 4: don't even have to be rich. 337 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: Then if you are super attracted, if you're attracted, if 338 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: you make in this economy over two hundred. 339 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 3: It's funny that it's funny that you said that in 340 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 3: compared to the dark. So I was with my family 341 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 3: this weekend and my sister is talking to a new 342 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 3: guy his career.

So for 344 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 3: if we're not talking about rich, wealthy men, apparently truck 345 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 3: drivers are terrible men today and so listening to them 346 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 3: this weekend, talk about how truck driving is a career 347 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 3: that if a man has he. 348 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 2: Ain't shit because he's always on the road. 349 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: He might have his certain routes, so he got a 350 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 3: bitch on these Routes's what. 351 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: So my partner is a real estate investor and he 352 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: has been for the last I don't know, maybe six seven. 353 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: We've only been did in two years. But that was 354 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 1: his first job and that was how he got in come. 355 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: You might be right the truck literally, but I didn't 356 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: know about drivers, but I know those careers are the 357 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: all that time on the truck, listening to them pop 358 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: flipping houses, learning shit. 359 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 2: Okay, what other career then? If you're like, it's any guy. 360 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 2: Are you just saying all men, whether I've got a 361 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: job or not. I'm not saying all men. 362 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 4: Some of the some of the most insane men I've 363 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 4: ever dated, have been in construction, I mean fantastic HVAC 364 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 4: like it can be anything. The issue is supply and demand, 365 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 4: and the issue is perception and access. It doesn't really 366 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 4: matter how much money they have. What matters is who 367 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 4: they have access to their perception. 368 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 2: Everybody got access to everybody now with social media. I 369 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 2: also think it depends. 370 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 4: So for example, if me and my homegirls are at 371 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 4: a party, I have seen this with my own eyes. 372 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 2: A regular dude who works at a great. 373 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 4: Tech company, you would think he was lebron the way 374 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 4: that women are like circulating it. 375 00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: Now, what is it? Is it? 376 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 4: The I mean, he's moderately attractive, has a good job. 377 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 4: But in this economy where most men don't have a 378 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 4: lot of those things, we're in a scarcity mindset. They're 379 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 4: going to be rotating. And that's why I always say, 380 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 4: I think it is very lame and very corny, and 381 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 4: I got lit up for this when women are obsessed 382 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 4: with David rich men, I think it is extremely lame 383 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 4: and I think it's extremely corny. I think it's a 384 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 4: proxy for low self esteem keyword being obsessed. 385 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 2: So what is what is your thoughts on women who. 386 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 4: Are obsessed sprinkle sprinkle all of that with the sprinkle, Yeah, 387 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 4: I think so. 388 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: Wait, what do you sprinkles? 389 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 2: Sprinkles, sprinkle sprinkle the little sprinkle sprinkle. Lady who was 390 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 2: talking about. 391 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,120 Speaker 1: The I'm sorry, is this a new drug? 392 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 2: Okay? 393 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 4: So I did a TikTok say I think women who 394 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 4: are obsessed with rich men are lame. And I kind 395 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 4: of got lit up. Some women understood, some did it okay. 396 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 4: I For example, if this. 397 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 2: Is a longer format, you could break it down to okay, 398 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 2: per so explain. Okay. 399 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 4: So, for example, if a man said I'm obsessed with models, 400 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 4: I think we would be like, oh, that's lame and 401 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 4: that's corny. I think I don't understand where their dichotomy 402 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 4: is for some people. But when women are outsourcing their 403 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 4: agency and autonomy to a man with money, because it's 404 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 4: very difficult to have that sort of relationship and there 405 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,959 Speaker 4: isn't any leverage points that aren't being exploited because that's 406 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 4: human nature, there is going to be a level of 407 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 4: exploitation when someone has such an advantage over someone else. Additionally, 408 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 4: when you are using a socially valued resource like beauty 409 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 4: or money, and you are obsessed with capturing that resource 410 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 4: and a partner, I believe it is a proxy for 411 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:39,680 Speaker 4: having low self esteem. The women who I think have agency, 412 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 4: who feel beautiful, who feel great about themselves, They're not 413 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 4: really the ones that are obsessed with marrying rich. It's 414 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 4: usually the people who have never experienced it or who 415 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 4: don't like themselves. Similarly, with men, men who are obsessed 416 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 4: with dating the baddest women, it's never the fine men, 417 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 4: and it's never the super wealthy men. It is the 418 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 4: people who are using other people their partners. Is proxies 419 00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 4: for their own low self esteem. And so that's why 420 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 4: when I think women who are obsessed with dating rich 421 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 4: about the they don't believe they can do it themselves. 422 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 4: They're outsourcing their future to somebody else. 423 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 3: That's why I said, I feel powerful now makes money 424 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 3: like I like that because here's the thing. 425 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: You just check boxed something for me that I said 426 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 1: the other day, so went to dinner with a friend 427 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: of mine, I would say maybe ten figures which to 428 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:21,719 Speaker 1: me is insane. 429 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, we all go eat great brings. 430 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: A partner, new partner, and my homegirl says, can I 431 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: say it? I was like, say it, babe. She was like, 432 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: not that she wasn't great. I just thought he'd have 433 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: this like super hot Russian model. But I see why 434 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 1: because she's like, you know, and the way that he 435 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: talked about. He's like, oh and she just left your 436 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: pana was doing and like they're enamored by these other 437 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 1: things they do. And do you remember my friend, my 438 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: friend that dated the manager at Ross. Yeah, that to 439 00:19:51,680 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: me the way everyone treated it. So we listen and 440 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: we judge.

He 445 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: was obsessed with the fact that she was able to 446 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: do this alone. He's like, I could tell this was 447 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: like her itinerary, like she wasn't meeting a man.

I think women women too universally. 472 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 4: So I actually did a poll on Instagram to ask 473 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 4: men what they think women can do to glow up. 474 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 4: And the number one thing that they said was, jes know, 475 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 4: nothing physical. It was hobbies. It was getting a better 476 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 4: group of friends. It was self investment.

And so when you 655 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 4: begin to walk open like that, it's indicating to yourself 656 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 4: and others like I'm free to take up space and 657 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 4: I'm allowed to move how I want to. So anyways, 658 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 4: physical we cover that. Social we talk about building social capital, 659 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 4: which is a concept I don't think a lot of people, 660 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 4: especially people of color, think about in a meaningful way. 661 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 4: So I'm talking about how you get mentor sponsors, joining 662 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 4: junior boards, how do you go event to events like 663 00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 4: CAN and when you go to CAN, how do you 664 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 4: show up in a way that leaves with meaningful connections 665 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 4: and that you can also build an ROI off of. 666 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 2: And then lastly his career. 667 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 4: So that's everything from working in corporate, we talk a 668 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 4: lot about entrepreneurs.

That's not vulnerability. I didn't 720 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 4: tell me anything meaningful about your inner world when we 721 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 4: talk about vulnerability in relationships and dating with my relationships 722 00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 4: gave me the feelings. 723 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 2: With the feelings feeling, I use my feelings. 724 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 4: We all, so I'm talking about Oh, I'm feeling really 725 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 4: anxious right now, I'm feeling frustrated, I'm feeling really excited. 726 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 4: Here is why. It's giving people a peak into your 727 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 4: inner world and when you grew up how I grew up, 728 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 4: which was perfectionism, and you can only let people. And 729 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 4: I think a lot of black women feel this way too. 730 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 4: If I have to be perfect in how I show 731 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 4: up in order to say made silent very Jamaican, yeah, 732 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 4: you could tell or I have. 733 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: Dated a Jamaican girl. For a bit that was constantly 734 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: talking about perfection. She's like, why don't think you understand? Like, 735 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: so they came from Jamaica when she was maybe five 736 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: and just almost like I would say, adjacent to Africans 737 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: wanting to be the standards. But I didn't really hear 738 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: that before. 739 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 3: Because what what type, like did you come from money? 740 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 3: Because like, I'm Jamaican, I was gonna say Jamaica, I'm 741 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 3: Jamaican and white. What where from They're from Saint Catherine? 742 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 3: Where from the township?

Okay, okay, yeah. 745 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 3: We weren't like they say Catherine. But what's crazy? And 746 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 3: that's why I asked, though, did you come from money? 747 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 3: Because the difference with my family wasn't that, but they 748 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 3: were workers like my uncle, my aunts, my like from 749 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 3: doing the paper the paper route in the morning to 750 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 3: then working at a at a convention store, to then taking. 751 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 2: Care of all the kids to me, which is why my. 752 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,959 Speaker 3: Dad for so long even with this podcast, specifically when 753 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 3: I was bartending, it was a part of why I 754 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 3: even went to college and went to school because when 755 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 3: I was bartending, it didn't matter how much money I 756 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 3: fucking made every time I went home, when you're gonna 757 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 3: get a real job, and he just didn't think I 758 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 3: had a fucking real job. Even though I made money, 759 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,360 Speaker 3: even though I was paying my own bills, it didn't matter. 760 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 2: He wanted me to have a real job. 761 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 3: And it wasn't until like even recently, like I was 762 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 3: surprised he was proud of me because this, to him 763 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 3: isn't a real job. 764 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 2: Of course, and so. 765 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 3: Doctor engineer get me, and he's but he's also like 766 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 3: blue blue, blue collar.

Everyone had 768 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 3: blue collar jobs. So for me, it's interesting hearing your 769 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 3: upbringing like that, because for me, it was just always work, work, work, 770 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 3: make money, and have all the jobs that you can, 771 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 3: which is probably why I keep wanting to make jobs 772 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 3: for myself. It was always have multiple jobs, just keep 773 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 3: working and make all the money. 774 00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 2: And then also sexuality.

Because when I'm talking about 856 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 4: self investment, I'm not even thinking from the lens of 857 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 4: like what male care, what men care about? I'm thinking 858 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 4: from the lens of like what is going to make 859 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,800 Speaker 4: you feel good and like begin the practice of focusing 860 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 4: your energy on yourself. 861 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't even it's about bet or not. 862 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 4: I don't care what the bad they So when I 863 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 4: think about like the things that really move the needle 864 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,239 Speaker 4: in terms of personal appearance and personal brand, it's going 865 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 4: to be getting the hairstyle that works for you. It's 866 00:37:56,239 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 4: going to be getting your like the body the person right. 867 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 4: And it's not about a size. It's more about getting 868 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 4: your capsule wardrobe together. It's about finding clothes that like 869 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,359 Speaker 4: you back, finding hairstyles that like you back, finding things 870 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 4: that flatter the body that you're in, not the body 871 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 4: that you used to have or the body that you 872 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 4: trant to have, exactly the body that you're currently in. 873 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,719 Speaker 4: It's about getting your teeth together in whichever way that 874 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 4: makes sense. So none of this is prescriptive, right, None 875 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 4: of it is like you better get ozembic or you 876 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 4: better get but it is making sure that you're demonstrating 877 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 4: like care in each of those spaces. So even if 878 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 4: it's just like whitening or flossing whatever, teeth make a 879 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 4: big difference or a hygiene makes a big difference. And 880 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 4: then lastly, some of those like smaller things like yeah, 881 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 4: you can focus on the nails and the makeup and 882 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 4: things like that, but the big things that will move 883 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 4: the needle in terms of how you show up in 884 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,839 Speaker 4: a physical room and then also how you feel about yourself. 885 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 4: It's gonna be hair. Skin, Skin is another thing. Go 886 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 4: to the germatologist, get skincare if you need it, hair skin, teeth, 887 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,399 Speaker 4: and then like that body piece that's really what women 888 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 4: should be actually think. 889 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 1: Teeth was my biggest elevation in my life.

When 1226 00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,239 Speaker 1: I started to dig deeper, like what was it with 1227 00:51:56,280 --> 00:52:00,359 Speaker 1: the other women?

He said, finding a wife wasn't 1247 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:50,360 Speaker 1: right or die for me.

I ain't doing that for a while. 1275 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 1: So confidence was one. Honesty didn't find you to be 1276 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:07,719 Speaker 1: a liar. And I really think some real shit. 1277 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:08,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1278 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 1: A lot of the girls he did before me were 1279 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 1: very like primp popper girls. Yeah, you know, those are 1280 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 1: the girls that are acting like they never sucked the day. Yep, 1281 00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 1: they've never had a partner, and I think men are 1282 00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: very taken back when women get to talk about relationships 1283 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 1: and exes. I'd love to know what you think of 1284 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 1: that too. Nurturing, I found that many women are not 1285 00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 1: I'm looking for them to be softer, and it's not 1286 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 1: happening for me. A few other traits, but for one, 1287 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:36,440 Speaker 1: many women aren't finding places to be soft all caps, 1288 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:40,840 Speaker 1: tell me where, and let's end it with this, because 1289 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:44,239 Speaker 1: we're all women doing well and strong and don't need 1290 00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 1: men in our lives. Well, I need be effucked. But 1291 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: the softness, where are we losing it? And where should 1292 00:54:50,640 --> 00:54:51,800 Speaker 1: we be showing up softer? 1293 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 4: We're losing I think unfortunately society has changed in a 1294 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 4: way in which we are having multiple roles. The household 1295 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:02,920 Speaker 4: used to be someone was a primary breadwinner, then someone 1296 00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,400 Speaker 4: was taking care of the home, and a contemporary society, 1297 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:07,799 Speaker 4: we're doing both roles right Like we go home and 1298 00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 4: we cook and we clean and we meal prep, and 1299 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 4: then we're also going out and doing work. Softness comes 1300 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,840 Speaker 4: from having the psychological space to rest and be able 1301 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,520 Speaker 4: to sort of like disconnect from your mind and into 1302 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 4: your body. And I think unfortunately we live in a hypersocialized, 1303 00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 4: hyper capitalistic and also just like logical society in which 1304 00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 4: all day I'm making decisions, we're all making decisions, we're 1305 00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:32,440 Speaker 4: directing people, we're having conversations, et cetera, we don't have 1306 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,320 Speaker 4: the opportunity to lean into our body. And so something 1307 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 4: that I encourage a lot of the women, particularly in 1308 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,360 Speaker 4: my masterclass, to do, is to think about ways to 1309 00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:42,480 Speaker 4: connect back into your body, back into your intuition, because 1310 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:46,160 Speaker 4: that's where we're losing the softness. I also think anwhar 1311 00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:48,120 Speaker 4: you know, I love Anwar does a really great job, 1312 00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 4: and that's where we talk about vulnerability. And part of 1313 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:53,000 Speaker 4: vulnerability is one understanding how you feel and two being 1314 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 4: able to express that. And the amount of men that 1315 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,319 Speaker 4: have told me I love the fact that you're able 1316 00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:00,359 Speaker 4: to tell me what you're feeling, because most and don't. 1317 00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,040 Speaker 4: Most women kind of sit on it and are kind 1318 00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 4: of weird and passive, aggressive and in a mood, et cetera. 1319 00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:05,439 Speaker 2: I won't say most, but some are. 1320 00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 4: But if you're able to say, like, hey, I'm feeling 1321 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:11,240 Speaker 4: this way, can we talk about it. The emotional regulation 1322 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 4: and the emotional control that comes with UH being able 1323 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 4: to one identify your own feelings and then verbalize it 1324 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:19,440 Speaker 4: to someone else. I think that's the softness that men 1325 00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 4: are really looking for. But generally, if a woman wants 1326 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:26,479 Speaker 4: to reconnect with her femininity, with her softness, with whatever one, 1327 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,359 Speaker 4: it's doing things that you like to do growing up, 1328 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:30,200 Speaker 4: like whatever you like to do as a child, like 1329 00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:33,200 Speaker 4: reconnecting with that to reconnecting with your body. And then 1330 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 4: three figuring out ways to offload decisions to other people, 1331 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 4: So figuring out like who can you have to delegate 1332 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:41,800 Speaker 4: to cleaning your house, who can you have as a 1333 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 4: chief of staff, et cetera, So you can reconnect to 1334 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:47,200 Speaker 4: who you are and like what your intuitive self is thinking. 1335 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:48,200 Speaker 2: I love that. 1336 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 3: I love that, boss pitch the chief of staff and 1337 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 3: let our listeners know where they can follow you. 1338 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:58,440 Speaker 4: So on TikTok, I'm Jody k Tay on Instagram, I'm 1339 00:56:58,440 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 4: the same thing, but with an L at the end, 1340 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 4: Jode Kate Tail Hey y L And then yeah, my 1341 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:08,239 Speaker 4: masterclass and all information is also on my website, which 1342 00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:09,239 Speaker 4: is jodykta dot com. 1343 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 1: Is only in person now it's virtual. 1344 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:13,399 Speaker 2: We have girls all across the world and we will we. 1345 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 3: Will include the link.
