It 89 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: was very time consuming and also like most of the 90 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: content was free value content, not even paid content, so 91 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: I was, Yeah, it was a lot. So I don't 92 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 1: want to discredit that because I definitely, you know, as 93 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: much as people are like, oh, influencers, they just do nothing. 94 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: You guys know how hard I work, And especially when 95 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: you're working full time and then you have a social 96 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: media on the side, it's like, it's honestly like another 97 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: full time job. 98 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: So I have. 99 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: So I went straight from high school, I did my 100 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: law degree. During my law degree, I always worked either 101 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: part time or full time. And then on top of that, 102 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: I started to grow my social media. So my social 103 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: media was very much health and fitness. At the beginning, 104 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: it was you know, my account got a lot of 105 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 1: traction at the start because of before and after photo 106 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: and so I just used to share like, you know, 107 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: healthy recipes, workouts, all that sort of jazz. And then 108 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: it very much morphed into more of a lifestyle account. 109 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: So when I was doing my law degree plus working 110 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: full time, I guess it really morphed into this account 111 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: where it was, you know, I was the girl who 112 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,679 Speaker 1: worked full time, did her law degree, plus was healthy 113 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: whatever that means. And so again I would share my 114 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: life on YouTube on Instagram, and I had a following 115 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: off that, and then on top of that, you know, 116 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: I would work with brands who would either you know, 117 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: give me like a contrabasis, which means I would receive 118 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: products or services in exchange for my you know services, 119 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: or I would get paid, you know, for promoting a brand. 120 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: And I feel like I don't need to say this 121 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: because you guys know me, but you know, like I 122 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: would never promote a brand or you know, say I 123 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: was using it unless I was. Of course, I think 124 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have got to this point if I had 125 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: ever lied about that. And yeah, so that was you know, 126 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: my thing, and so what that involved and kind of 127 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: the real kind of side hustle for me, I guess 128 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: when I took my side hustle seriously. So that's kind 129 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: of my first point is if you have a side 130 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: hustle and you're like ready to progress it, you really 131 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: need to be treating this side hustle as a business. 132 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: So for me, even though you know, social media and 133 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: having brands pay for things, it was like this new 134 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: concept and it was kind of a weird thing to 135 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: get your head around, but I very much treated it 136 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: like a business, like I was so professional with the 137 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: brands I were with, I, you know, would have a 138 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: calendar and I would have a media kit and I 139 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: did everything myself as well. So I guess like that 140 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: was kind of And yeah, I was working full time 141 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: at a law firm doing family law at this point, 142 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: also studying whether that was my law degree or my 143 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: pot which is the study you have to do after 144 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: you finish your law degree to become a lawyer. And 145 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: so what my day would look like is I used 146 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 1: to like the firm I was at started work at 147 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: seven thirty, which is just honestly, now I'm thinking about, 148 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, why does a law firm start at seven thirty? 149 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 2: It's beyond ridiculous. 150 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: And it's not like we even finished early, Like it 151 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:52,000 Speaker 1: was still to fucking five pm.

But the mental state 173 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: I was in was very much like I was going 174 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,599 Speaker 1: to be a lawyer, but I also was so passionate 175 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: about this side thing and my health and fitness. 176 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 2: So I was so obsessed with both, if that makes sense. 177 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: So I had this a huge goal, like I was 178 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: going to finish my degree. I was going to get 179 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: that certificate that says I was a lawyer, but I 180 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: also was going to do this side business. And yeah, 181 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: I was just like grinding, and I think that's the 182 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: big thing with the side business. For example, maybe you 183 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: haven't got one and you want to start one. Is 184 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: I just don't think it's going to work if you 185 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: start one just for money. So if you're working your 186 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: nine to five and you hate it and you're like, oh, 187 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: I need to make extra money or something like that, 188 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: like doing something just for money, I just I don't know. 189 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: I just look it can. But for me it's like 190 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: it was a grind. It was hard, and if I 191 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: wasn't obsessed and so passionate about it, I just don't 192 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: think it would have worked. So that's just like a huge, 193 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: huge thing. You need to be obsessed. You need to 194 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: be passionate because there is going to be like for me, 195 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: it was you know, three years. I don't know for 196 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: you guys, but there's going to be a time where 197 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 1: you just have to put in the work, you have 198 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: to grind, you don't have a social life. Yeah, it's hard, 199 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 1: like you know. I also at this point, I think 200 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: I was planning a wedding like lots was happening, and 201 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: on the weekend, like poor Tim, I basically wouldn't have 202 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 1: much time for him. I'd give him a couple of 203 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: hours and then just be working on, you know, my 204 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: side hustle. And God bless his soul, he stuck around 205 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: and was so fine about it. But it's just like 206 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: you're going to have to sacrifice things. So I think 207 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: if you don't have the passion, it's just yeah, you 208 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: really need it there. 209 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 2: So then the next thing. 210 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: With a side hustle is you really have to not 211 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: care what people think. So, you know, I was at 212 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: this law firm, I was being professional. I was like, 213 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: you know, trying to really work hard and show that 214 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: I could be a lawyer. And I worked in a 215 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: really good law firm too, where it was very respected, 216 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 1: and you know, I had partners above me, lawyers above me, 217 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: and they all knew what I was doing on the side. 218 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: And I think sometimes not that I was embarrassed about it, 219 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: but I could kind of tell that they thought it 220 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: was like silly or just like what is she even doing? 221 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: Or like why does she bother? Like it's ridiculous, or 222 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: you know, she just needs to focus on one. And 223 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: even sometimes my family and Tim wouldn't understand. And I 224 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: think it's just like you need to have that self 225 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: belief yourself and you need to be able to put 226 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: yourself out there. So you need to be able to 227 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: be like, this is what I want to do, this 228 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: is what I'm doing, and kind of have your own back, 229 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 1: because especially with a side hustle, like especially when it's 230 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: not succeeding, Like don't get me wrong, like now, people like, yeah, 231 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: of course you should have lest your corporate job and 232 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: you know, started Naked Harvest and started a podcast because 233 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: it's like, I'm quote unquote successful. But you know, back then, 234 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: when I was working full time in a law job 235 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 1: doing this side hustle thing, and when I was like, 236 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: I knew I wanted to leave and do the side 237 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: hustle thing, like it didn't look like, it didn't look great, 238 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: and people like, what the fuck is she doing? But 239 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 1: you need to have your own self belief and you 240 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: need to have your own back. The next thing I 241 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: want to chat about is, you know, I'm kind of 242 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: going to go the complete other direction and say, even 243 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: though I've said you've got to be super passionate about it, 244 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: is it also does need to be monetized at some point. 245 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: So for example, with my Instagram, you know, I've had 246 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: it for over seven eight nine years now and I 247 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: only started monetizing it probably three years in three or 248 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 1: four years in so like it was like three or 249 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: four years of literally just creating free content. And I 250 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: know it's Instagram, so you might think it's different, but 251 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 1: there's a lot of time and effort that went in there, 252 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: and even to this day, like for example, this podcast, 253 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: like to be very transparent with you guys, I have 254 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: a podcast manager who works full time that helps me 255 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: out with the podcast because you know, like I don't 256 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: have the time. I full time work in Naked Harvests 257 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: and Geers Collective, and I obviously work with other brands, 258 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: and so I need someone working full time to run 259 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: this podcast. And I do you know, you guys would 260 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: hear the ads and whatnot that would sink in every 261 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: now and again, but to be honest, like those ads 262 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: would just cover my podcast managers, you know, salary or wage. 263 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: So it's like I'm kind of breaking even. But for me, 264 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: the podcast is such like a passion an outlet that 265 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: that's okay for me, and you know, I make my 266 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: money in other ways. But in saying that, if you are, 267 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 1: you know, doing this podcast, you do have to monetize 268 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: and it does have to be able to make money 269 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: in some way so you're not just like completely burnt 270 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 1: out for no reason. But yeah, you have to be 271 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: able to put in free value content. And that's like 272 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: basically what this podcast is is something I do you 273 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: know on top of everything else that is pretty much well, 274 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: it is completely free value for you guys. That takes 275 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: a lot of time and effort and resources of my own, 276 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: but for me it's so there's always going to be 277 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: kind of that pull and take R and C. 278 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: Fam. 279 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 1: Are you currently trying to grow your hair, get glowing 280 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: skin and nails, or help your gut health, Well, look 281 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: no further because Naked Harvest's collagen powder is here to 282 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: change it all. Did you know that age twenty five, 283 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: our body starts producing as much collagen itself and then 284 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: that amount decreases every single year. So this is important 285 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: to know because our skin, which is our biggest organ 286 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: is made up of seventy five percent collagen, and guys, 287 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: collagen is just a protein. So it does make sense 288 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: why we start seeing signs of aging around this time. 289 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: And this is why we called our collagen the beauty 290 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: Alixa because it really is a beauty supplement that is 291 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: going to help you glow from the inside out. So 292 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: even though this supplement has amazing esthetic results, you've probably 293 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: seen my before and after hair photos and my nail 294 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: snaps on my stories. But more than that, collagen is 295 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: such an important building block to so many parts of 296 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: our body. So not only is your skin going to glow, 297 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: your hair and nails grow, but it's also going to 298 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: help with your gut health and we all know how 299 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: important that is.

And so that 325 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: year I really kind of took my side hustle a 326 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: lot more seriously. And it's funny because, like I said, 327 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: like influencing, it's not like it's this new thing. And 328 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: for example, we do influencer marketing with Naked Harvest, and 329 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: I will talk to my influencer marketing manager, Jacinta, and 330 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,719 Speaker 1: she just will tell me some of the stories of 331 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: influencers who you can just tell they don't take it 332 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 1: seriously and they don't treat it like a business. And 333 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: it's like you know we do we do contract and 334 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: paid posts for naked harvest. So like this person is 335 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: getting paid, they are giving us their services, they are 336 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: getting paid like this is a contract, this is a 337 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 1: legit thing. 338 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 2: And they almost like. 339 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: You know, they won't reply for ages, or they won't 340 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: know how to make an invoice or you know, just 341 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: like so many things where you're like, this is a business. 342 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: You need to start treating it like a business, if 343 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: that makes sense. And I totally get that, and I 344 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,640 Speaker 1: said to Justcinta, there was definitely a point when I 345 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: was influencing where you kind of it's like you don't 346 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: grasp that concept. And when I kind of put that 347 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: goal in where it's like I would only leave my 348 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: law job until I matched my wage, my mindset changed 349 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: and I took things a lot more seriously. So I 350 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 1: treated my side hustle like a business. It was very professional, 351 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: you know. I yeah, Like I just treated it very professional. 352 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: And I think that's something like if you have a 353 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: side hustle, but you're treating it like a side hustle, 354 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: but you want it to turn into a full time, 355 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: you know, legit thing. It's like where can you change 356 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: things or make things more professional, make things more legit, 357 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 1: or just take yourself a bit more seriously, because it's 358 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: honestly like when you embody something, that's when you can 359 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: show up as that person. And I would kind of 360 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: get into what I used to do with visualization. Actually, 361 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 1: let's just get into it now. So also a huge, 362 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: huge change. And I know people are gonna be like, oh, 363 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: this is so woo whatever, but my side hustle, honestly, 364 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: honest to god, it would not have turned into a 365 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 1: legit thing. And me felt like that without my visualization 366 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 1: and affirmation practices. So because I used to catch the 367 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: bus that used to take me like half an hour 368 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: to get into the city every day, I used to 369 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: use that time to either listen to a podcast or 370 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: I would sit there with music and I would visualize. 371 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 1: So I would literally close my eyes like people probably 372 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 1: would have thought I was like fucking asleep on the muss, 373 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: but I would sit there and visualize what would my 374 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: day look like if I worked full time in my 375 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,159 Speaker 1: side hustle, So like I would visualize waking up, what 376 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 1: time would I wake up? And to be honest, this 377 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: is when I was visualizing a lot about the beach, 378 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: which is so crazy because what I used to visualize 379 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 1: is literally my life now. So I used to wake 380 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: up and you know, I used to wake up at six, 381 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: which was like two hours sleeping for me, and I 382 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: used to you know, get up gradually. I'd make myself 383 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: a coffee, I'd play with the dogs, and then i'd 384 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 1: go for a beach walk and i'd listen to a 385 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 1: podcast and I would you know, take this time and 386 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,719 Speaker 1: have this really long morning routine. And then i'd you know, 387 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: call my employees, chat to them, tell them what they 388 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: need to do today. And then i'd get into, you know, 389 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: my projects for the day and make my list and 390 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 1: feel accomplished and then be able to have a lunch 391 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: break where I sat in the sun and all this 392 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: different stuff which is literally my life now. But I 393 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: used to sit there and visualize and very kind of 394 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 1: you know, detailed and not detailed, like it was almost 395 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: like I was watching a movie and I just yeah, 396 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: I used to think, like and then from that visualization, 397 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: I'd be like, you know, how would this person show up, 398 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 1: what would she wear? How to treat others? Like I 399 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 1: would really get into it, and it's like that like 400 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: I wasn't that person yet. But because I would consistently, 401 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: like I reckon probably three times a week, I would 402 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: be visualizing this life, it almost felt like I was 403 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 1: living it. It almost felt like I knew it. And 404 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: that is the biggest like kind of manifestation as a 405 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: secret is like, if you want something, you need to 406 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: get comfortable with it, you need to feel worthy of it. 407 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 2: And then holy crap, it just like the attraction. 408 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: And getting there is so much easier because when we 409 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: don't feel comfortable, when we don't feel worthy, where it 410 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: feels completely out of touch, you know, it's it's out 411 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: of touch, it feels like it's not ours. And so like, yeah, 412 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time literally getting comfortable with 413 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,199 Speaker 1: what would it feel like to be my own boss, 414 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: you know, to take charge, to lead employees, to all 415 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: this sort of thing. And it's funny because I'm currently 416 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: a new life right now, not like a new life, 417 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: but I guess like the next Georgie. And it's just 418 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 1: really surreal to think that the current life I'm living 419 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 1: literally to a tea, Like this morning, I literally did that. 420 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: I woke up, I made a coffee, I walked to 421 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 1: the beach, I listened to a podcast, I did my 422 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: informations and meditation and then came here recording the episode, 423 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: and then Coop's going to pick me up and I'm 424 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: going to nh you know, to lead my employees. And 425 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, it's surreal, but guys, this stuff works, 426 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: and it's like if you can embody that person you 427 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: want to become and really get into that, that's when 428 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: the magic happens. So yeah, like, I think it's called 429 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: like acting as if. So I did that a lot, 430 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,879 Speaker 1: So I'd love for you to start thinking about, like 431 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: how would it feel. And this is only if you 432 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 1: do want to take your side hustle full time. If 433 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 1: you don't, that is completely fine. I think we need 434 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 1: to take the pressure off. But if is if that 435 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: is something that is like a goal. It's like act 436 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,439 Speaker 1: as if, even if you don't have employees, like feel 437 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: into what it would feel like. The next thing is like, 438 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: you don't have negative feelings towards your full time job, 439 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,679 Speaker 1: even though you know, my full time job was kind 440 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: of draining the life out of me, and you know, 441 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: I hated certain things, like the fact that we started 442 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 1: at seven thirty and I just thought it was outrageous 443 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 1: because I was like if we started at nine like 444 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 1: every other law firm, I'd have so much more time 445 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: to you know, work on my side, hushle, just have 446 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: more time for me. But never be negative towards your 447 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: nine to five, because it's like we just don't want 448 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: that toxic energy. And also like I used to see 449 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: my nine to five as like how grateful I was 450 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: that I was getting real world experience that I could 451 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: then apply to my own life, to my own business. 452 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: And also I had a safe income, like I had 453 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: a mortgage at this point, so it's like, thank God, 454 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: I've got this job that I know, you know, my 455 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: mortgage is taken care of. I can somewhat live, but 456 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: also work on my side hustle and like kind of 457 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: get it to the point, like I said, where I 458 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: could match it. And so like I really want you 459 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: to start seeing your nine to five a as a positive. 460 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: And like even when I would get negative feelings or 461 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: I have to work leg or something, I used to 462 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: sit there and sit in gratitude and be like I 463 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: am so thankful I had this job, even though I 464 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: know this won't be my future, Like this is towards 465 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 1: the end, even though I won't I know this won't 466 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: be my future. I am so thankful and really sitting 467 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: in gratitude because we know gratitude is one of the 468 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: highest vibes. What it is the highest vibe, So like, 469 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: don't have toxic or negative feelings towards your nine to 470 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 1: five because it's we just don't need that. Also, like 471 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:54,479 Speaker 1: I said, like, realize with a side hustle is every 472 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: free second, you're probably gonna have to use that for 473 00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: your side hustle. Like like I said, side hustle and 474 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: not for fainthearted. It's you're working before work, during lunchtime, 475 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 1: after work, and you just have to make it happen. 476 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 1: It's funny because a really weird thing happened is when 477 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: I left my corporate job and was like, you know, 478 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: full time side hustle. I went through a couple of 479 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: months and I said to Tim, I'm like, I literally 480 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: have you know, seven and a half more hours per 481 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: day and I'm not getting anything done. And it's because 482 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,120 Speaker 1: when you're in this side hustle. 483 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 2: Mode, you get shit done. 484 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 1: There's no scrolling on Instagram, there's no you know, being preoccupied. 485 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: You get shit done. And so like I just I'm sorry, 486 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: but it's bullshit. If you come to me and you go, oh, 487 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 1: I just don't have the time. You have the time. 488 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: If I had the time, you have the time, and 489 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: you just have to make it work and you just 490 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 1: have to be in that mindset. And yeah, it's like 491 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: every free second you put towards that side hustle and 492 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,520 Speaker 1: if you don't have passion for that, then maybe this 493 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: isn't the side hustle for you. Also, another big thing 494 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: is like teach yourself and be constantly learning. I definitely 495 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: have had a couple of like business coaches and stuff, 496 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: but that didn't come to a lot later. The biggest 497 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: catalysts for me learning what to do on my side 498 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 1: hustle and just like life in general, was podcasts and 499 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: audio books. So, guys, podcasts are free and there's I 500 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 1: guarantee you there's a podcast about anything like if you 501 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: don't know about social media influencer marketing, I guarantee you 502 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: there's a podcast. If you don't know you know how 503 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: to start a website or you shopify anything like that, 504 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: there's YouTube videos, there's podcasts. And then also I'm such 505 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,719 Speaker 1: a big believer with books because they completely change your 506 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: mindset and if you think about it. For example, if 507 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to write a book, I'm going to put 508 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: all my best shit in it because otherwise, like I'm 509 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: not gonna put out, you know, a piece of crap. 510 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: So books they're literally, you know, they're twenty four dollars 511 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: or auto boats fifteen dollars a month, and you can 512 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: read a book a month. Could you get a credit 513 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: and you're literally reading the best you know, brain juice 514 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: from other people, the lessons they've learned, like the best 515 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 1: lessons they've learned in their life for twenty four dollars. 516 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 1: Like utilize that, And I know, like then on top 517 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: of that, it's like courses and those sorts of things, 518 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: and that does start to get a bit more pricey. 519 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: But I just hate when people are like, oh, well, 520 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: I don't have the resources. It's like, no, listen to 521 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: a podcast, they're free, and there's YouTube videos, Like there's 522 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: so much free resources out there. 523 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 2: You just have to you know, be. 524 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: Proactive and be ready to listen and learn. The last 525 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: point I really want to chat about is surrounding yourself 526 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: with people who have done it before. So me, personally, 527 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 1: none of my friends were doing what I was doing. 528 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 2: No one I really knew. 529 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: Even like in the influencers space, I didn't really have 530 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: any people to look up to who were doing what 531 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: I was doing. And what really was my expander and 532 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: kind of like my permission slip to do what I 533 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: did is I listened to It was probably mostly podcasts 534 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 1: of women who had done what I wanted to do. 535 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: And so even though I didn't know these women personally 536 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: or these people personally, listening to stories where someone had, 537 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: you know, worked nine from five a nine to five, 538 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: had a side hustle, built it up and then left 539 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: it and been successful was kind of like a permission 540 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: slip for me to do it too. And guys, it's 541 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: kind of like you know that whole thing of I'm 542 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: gonna butcher this, but like you know, back in the 543 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: day where no one could run a mile under a 544 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: certain time, and then one person did it, and then 545 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: after that, like heaps of people started to do it. 546 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: And it's just like the human brain, like if other 547 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: people have done it and done it well, we kind 548 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: of think we can do it as well, and then 549 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: we do it. And that's literally the reason why I 550 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: was able to do it is because I surrounded myself 551 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: with people aka you know podcasts, you know celebrities, not celebrities, 552 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: but you know people in the space who had done 553 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: it that made me believe I can do it too. 554 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: So again, you are the curator of your own life. 555 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: Follow on Instagram people who are. 556 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 2: Doing what you want to do. 557 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: Don't just fucking follow on Instagram the skinny model who 558 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: has no substance and you know, no life goals, no 559 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: offense to that person.
