1 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: Okay. So I was on a business trip with my 2 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 1: assistant Taylor, and we went to the broad Moor Hotel 3 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: in Colorado, and it was to speak in front of 4 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: five hundred business professionals, insurance professionals, and you know, they 5 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: want you to come and stand at the podium and 6 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 1: just speak for forty five minutes, which is different than 7 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: sometimes a moderated moderated que and hey, when you sit 8 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: down and someone sort of just asks questions and you 9 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: get there anyway, because you take it on your own journey. 10 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: It's effectively like doing stand up because I don't I 11 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: can't have notes, I can't have pieces of paper, and 12 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't do well with prompters because I just can't 13 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: be focused in present. So you stand up there and 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 1: you literally don't know if you're gonna bomb, because they 15 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 1: just they're not your typical fans. And what I was 16 00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: supposed to speak about was philanthropy, and philanthropy is very 17 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: complicated and has many tentacles, and so I just get 18 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: up and start and wing it and it's going well. 19 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 1: It is going well, and it goes well and people 20 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: are enjoying it, and you see that they really do 21 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: want you for the right reasons. They want to talk 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: about philanthropy and giving and how you navigate it and 23 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: scandal and scams and all these different things. So I 24 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: talked about philanthropy and all my efforts and how we 25 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 1: do it in a different way, and it's rogue and 26 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 1: it's transparent and it's direct, and one goes to the 27 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 1: effort and how I navigate it and how to get 28 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,919 Speaker 1: involved and just like real talk. Not there's no rubber 29 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: chicken dinners, no pamphlets, no celebrities performing. It's the money 30 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: to the people. It's our model. I'm proud of it. 31 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: Billionaires and very wealthy celebrities and individuals come to us 32 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: to donate because they're sick of the bullshit too. They 33 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: want full transparency. They're sick of celebrities just posting links. 34 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: And it's because they're famous that people are donating, but 35 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: they don't even personally know exactly where the money is 36 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: going because they're not handling and controlling the money. So um, 37 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: it's just a new world in a new way of 38 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: doing relief work and philanthropy. And I just think it 39 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: was great. It was a great talk, and I loved 40 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: that they wanted me to talk about it, and then um, 41 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: then someone asked me a question in the Q and 42 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: A about what I've experienced as a woman in business, 43 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: meaning like being treated poorly or unfairly. You know, there's 44 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: it's always a question I've gotten, and I often answer it. 45 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: This I mean, I didn't know how to answer it 46 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: for years because I hadn't really experienced it. My own 47 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: personal experience was I never really thought about being a 48 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: woman or a man. I just entered into I entered 49 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: into cocktails, which was a total male driven universe. There 50 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: were no women in it, there were no celebrities in it. 51 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: It was the wild, wild West, and I'm putting sugar 52 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: in my coffee. That's the noise you here. And I 53 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 1: entered into I entered into the cocktail business. Just went 54 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: in to be strong and proud and and if I 55 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: had known how crowded it was going to be and 56 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: how intense it was, I probably wouldn't have entered into it. 57 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: But I entered into it sucking all in and just 58 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 1: be better than the men. I recently have learned that 59 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: it's not so overt the way men treat women differently 60 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: that I did not know what the word man explaining 61 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: meant until it happened to me recently and I was 62 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: able to identify it as what all these people are 63 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 1: asking me about. Meaning when a man talks to you 64 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: like in an inferior manner, like you're just a junior partner, 65 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: they're just sort of condescending and it's not so over 66 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: and you don't always realize it. It's just that like, okay, honey, 67 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, it's a little bit of like a pad 68 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: on the back, condescending. I'm up here, you're down there. 69 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: And so I was on stage and I was explaining 70 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: this concept and how you have to show men where 71 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: the weemy pad is and it's it's you know, p 72 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: over here and not over here. And I recently I 73 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: had to tell someone in an exact equal position to 74 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: me who spoke down to me, you know that you're 75 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: not a senior partner. I'm at a junior partner. We're equals. 76 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: So let's get the fucking out of the way right now. 77 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: And it really does it just and not everybody in 78 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: the workplace is in that same powerful position as I 79 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: as me as I as I am too correct that, 80 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: but you can calmly and methodically get the point across. 81 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: So along the way someone knows not to funk with you, 82 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: and that you're not open for inappropriate conduct or being 83 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: spoken down to, no matter what position you're in. But 84 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: I was then saying that that's what man splaining was, 85 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: and I always thought that man splaining was men telling 86 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: you that they wax their balls. And I said this 87 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: at the insurance conference and everyone laughed, which is when 88 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: I realized that, like, it's okay to say balls at 89 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: an insurance conference. And then I said, I didn't curse today, 90 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: and I was told I could curse. So I was 91 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 1: using my store credit for saying balls. I guess in 92 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: the moment. I didn't plan to say balls. I just 93 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 1: said it in the moment, and I was Later I 94 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: was with my assistant Taylor, who's traveling with me, which 95 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: is effectively the same thing as the TV show Hacks. Literally, 96 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: I think her name is Jean Smart. I'm Jeane Smart. 97 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: My assistant is the girl who is her writer and 98 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: who deals with all the craziness of the two dogs 99 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: and selling on television and being a insane lunatic driving 100 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,279 Speaker 1: a Rolls Royce but bargaining for figurines. Like it's effectively 101 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: like that, and my assistant. Taylor is in the car 102 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: with me later and we're crying the fact. She's like, 103 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: you said balls at an insurance conference. She called her 104 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: boyfriend to tell him and her parents, and she was laughing, 105 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: and I said, well, yeah, because I didn't really I 106 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 1: never really experienced man splaining, and that's what I thought 107 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: it was. And she said, I think that's manscape. Had 108 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: a calm voice in the car service on the way 109 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:52,680 Speaker 1: from Colorado Springs to Denver Hotels, she said, and she 110 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: doesn't know what any of this stuff means, like girl Boss, 111 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: she doesn't know who anybody on TikTok is, she doesn't 112 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: have a social media account that she uses. She's very 113 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: damn or she's cool, she's amazing. She doesn't know what 114 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: this fucking ship means. She goes, I think that's manscaping, 115 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: and my eyes became saucers. A light bulb went on 116 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: over my head and I looked over at and I'm like, oh, right, Wax, 117 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: sing your balls is not man splaining, it's man escaping. 118 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: And then I proceeded to ask her, like, do you 119 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: think the audience knew that that's where I meant. I mean, 120 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: because we didn't figure this outntil later and I should 121 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: have clarified it, but it was sort of like someone 122 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 1: thinking that apple sauce and apple jack's are the same word. 123 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: I just did not know that it's between those words. 124 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: So anyway, many of you know that man splaining and 125 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: man scaping are not the same thing. So if I 126 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: get canceled because I said waxing balls and thought man 127 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: splaining and manscaping or the same thing at my insurance 128 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: conference in Colorado Springs at the amazing broad Moor Hotel, 129 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 1: you should absolutely visit there.

But if 132 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: I get canceled for that, it was worth it because 133 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: we peed our pants. We laughed. I laughed myself to sleep. 134 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: I woke up thinking about it, and we cried because 135 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: only I would say waxing balls at an insurance conference, 136 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: but it would turn into the greatest laugh I've had 137 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: of this year, which I think is two.
