I know, there has been 26 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: a lot of plans that are changing, there's a lot 27 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 1: of uncertainty. There's a lot of people who they can't 28 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: run their business as they usually would. You know, there's 29 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: been travel plans and not happening in all that sort 30 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: of thing. And as a control freak myself, I really 31 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: just wanted to chat about kind of my headspace and 32 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: how I'm feeling now compared to when everything first happened, 33 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: and basically how I'm pivoting personally in business, and yeah, 34 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: just have a chat about that because it is a 35 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: super confusing time. I know, I'm going through like a 36 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: rollercoaster of emotions. Like one day I'm like I'm fine, 37 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: everything is fine, like this is all good, like I 38 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: can get through this, and then the next day I'm 39 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 1: like a total bull of anxiety and bit of a rex. 40 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: So I know, you guys are probably feeling the same, 41 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: and I just want to have a chat about when 42 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,639 Speaker 1: plans change and how to pivot. So let's get straight 43 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: into it. I kind of have updated you guys just 44 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: about I was feeling super overwhelmed when everything happening, just 45 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: a small business owner with naked harvests and Tim you know, 46 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: quit his job at the start of the year, so 47 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: our income is solely both based on our online businesses, 48 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: and so it's quite scary when you have two mortgages. 49 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: And yeah, anyway, so I was a bit of a 50 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: mess at the start, like I was really struggling to 51 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: get my head around things. I was really in this 52 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,959 Speaker 1: lack mentality, and then I have kind of shifted out 53 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: of that. I know, my last solo podcasts, which will 54 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: be two before this, I kind of spoke about what 55 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: I'm doing to shift into more higher positive vibes every 56 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: single day, like I am noticing it's something I have 57 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: to really be conscious and intentional about, whereas usually I'm 58 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: just in that mood already. But I am shifting into that. 59 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: So if you want some more tips on that, I 60 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: would go listen to that podcast. So yeah, I'm just 61 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: shifting into gratitude and shifting into a higher vibe. Being 62 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: very con just about that. And I just wanted to 63 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: chat about it because I heard someone say the other day, 64 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think about where and when, but someone 65 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: was saying, like, everything is so different, but at the 66 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: same time, everything is the same. They were kind of explaining, 67 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: like everything is so different in regards to how we 68 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: usually do things, what is happening, how we're feeling, but 69 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: the basic principles of being human, the basic principles of 70 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: energy and law of attraction and all that sort of 71 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: thing are the same. So that means is yes, in business, 72 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: in our personal lives, plans have changed, things are different, 73 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: but the same rules that I personally live by, which 74 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: is like attracts, like law of attraction, what you focus 75 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: on grows, that sort of side of things is the same. 76 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: And if we keep like, if we go back to 77 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: the principles at the basic principles, we work with that 78 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: and we have a lot of trust in what is happening, 79 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: we can get through this. And so within my personal 80 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: life and my small businesses, this is such a time 81 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: and I wanted to say this to you guys too, 82 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: This is such a time to welcome change, to pivot, 83 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: and to be very open minded. So I'll go first 84 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: just through my personal life and explain that a bit 85 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: and what I'm doing there, and then we'll get into business. 86 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: So in my personal life, me and Tim had Europe booked. 87 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: We haven't been there before, Like, we worked extremely hard 88 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: last year and it was kind of like a big 89 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: trip that we were looking for to we're going to 90 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: take a month month off work. We had you know, 91 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: got everyone ready so I wouldn't be working too much, 92 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,799 Speaker 1: which I haven't taken like a holiday where I'm not working, 93 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: you know, I can't remember when. So we were planning Europe. 94 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: And then also we had planned to go to New 95 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: Zealand for my birthday in August. We also had like 96 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: a lot of friend events on like the last couple 97 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: of weekends. They would have already been gone, but I had, 98 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: you know, engagement party Hens. Basically lots was happening socially, 99 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: we're supposed to be in Europe, like everything has changed. 100 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: And also to be very transparent with you guys, me 101 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: and Tim were thinking, like we had always said that 102 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: we would try for children after we had like ticked 103 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: you know, certain things off the list and a big 104 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: thing and kind of the last thing for us was Europe. 105 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: So we were thinking after New Zealand in August that 106 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: we would maybe try for a little baby. And I 107 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: am like not that maternal, so that took a lot 108 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: for me to get my head around, and I think 109 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: that now with everything happening, so we have rebooked our 110 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: Europe trip for next year because our Europe trip was 111 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: actually better based off a holiday that we were doing 112 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: for Tim's brother's wedding, so he's replanned it for next year. 113 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: So it's all basically pushed back a year. And yeah, 114 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: for us, it's like kind of our holiday plans and 115 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: then even like personal baby plans is like push back 116 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: a year plus more. And yeah, I'm not that maternal, 117 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: but then like now it's over a year. Way, like 118 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: I feel very I think I got attached to the 119 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: plan a lot, and I just like, yeah, I feel 120 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: a bit sad about it. It feels weird because we 121 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: just have no control. But these are like personal life decisions, 122 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: so we're supposed to have control over us. So I 123 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: totally get you if you are feeling the exact same way. 124 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: So how I've kind of shifted and pivoted with this, 125 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: And don't get me wrong, guys, like I sat in 126 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: a lot of like sadness and confusion, and I just 127 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: let myself feel those feelings and we are so allowed 128 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: to do that. A big thing I want to kind 129 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: of mention is however I'm feeling, however I'm expressing it 130 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: to you. If you don't feel the same, or if 131 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 1: you're feeling things differently, or if you're feeling them the same, 132 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: it is okay. However we're feeling, It's just so okay 133 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: because I know so many of us would just like 134 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: be responding to this whole thing differently, and especially as 135 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: a collective, there is a lot of emotions right now, 136 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: so don't worry if you're getting all the feels or 137 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: if you're not feeling it, etc. So yeah, I was 138 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: definitely super sad, and I had a really crap couple 139 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: of weeks just getting my head around it. But basically 140 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: my whole thing is like I create my own reality. 141 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: I get to work with the universe and create how 142 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: I want my life, and I really need to trust 143 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: that this is for a great reason and something better 144 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: as happening. So when I like manifest and write goals. 145 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: There's always something I say at the end, and I 146 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: always like say my goal, I want it by this 147 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: time or blah blah blah, and then I always say 148 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: this or something better. So obviously I had these goals 149 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: of traveling of maybe you know, trying for a child 150 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: and all this sort of thing, but at the end 151 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: I would be saying this or something better. So it's 152 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 1: not that manifestation doesn't work, or like I can totally 153 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: understand if you're losing faith in things. I totally get that. 154 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: But I'm just trying to really sit in the or 155 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: this is or something better. So I'm really just giving 156 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 1: a lot of trust over to whatever you want to 157 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: call it, God, universe, spirit, anything like that, and I'm 158 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: just going, Okay, this is my current reality. Something better 159 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 1: is happening, Like this happened for a reason, like maybe 160 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: when we were supposed to go traveling in May, like 161 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: something happened in Europe that wasn't that great, or the 162 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 1: simple fact of you know, when we do travel next year, 163 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: I am going to appreciate it so much more because 164 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: it was like taken away from me. And I think 165 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: that's also I've spoken to a lot of girls who 166 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: you know, they had their wedding planned, like their wedding 167 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: was a couple of weeks away and they had to 168 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: cancel their wedding. And I just feel so much for 169 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: people who have just had it's like devastation, that devastating feeling. 170 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: I know, there's people who have lost people, and there's 171 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: just there's a lot going on. And that's like I 172 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: was messaging a girl and she was saying, oh, you know, 173 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 1: my wedding was supposed to happen, and I was supposed 174 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: to go to Italy from my honeymoon, and it's kind 175 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: of like, look, when this is all over and we 176 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 1: get to travel, we get to do our normal life, 177 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: we are going to appreciate it so much more. We 178 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: are going to be so much more present. So I 179 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: am really just like looking at it from that angle, 180 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: and also, to be completely honest, as someone who is 181 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: not that maternal, it was like a nice kind of 182 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: feeling to realize that I actually really did care about, 183 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: you know, wanting to maybe try for a child or 184 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. And so I'm just really looking 185 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 1: at everything as a blessing and trusting that the universe 186 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 1: has something better in store and just having faith This 187 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: episode is brought to you by Naked Harvest Supplements. I'm 188 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: sure most of you know who Naked Harvest is, but 189 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: if you are new here, Naked Harvest is the all 190 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: natural supplement company I co founded with my brother. Naked 191 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: Harvest started because I personally had a really bad experience 192 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: where I found out a supplement that I was taking 193 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: had ingredients that were not disclosed on the label, and 194 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: even though it said it was natural, it wasn't. As 195 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: someone who is so conscious about what I put in 196 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: my body because of previous health issues, this made me 197 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: so upset. So I teamed up with my big brother Cooper, 198 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: who is also very health conscious, gluten free and dairy intolerant, 199 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: and we built from the ground up a company that 200 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: really cares about what we put in our supplements, and 201 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: also we've stripped it back to only have the most 202 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: necessary and best ingredients. I know we are all going 203 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: through a hard time right now with everything happening in 204 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: the world, and that's why NH really wants to support you. 205 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: We have planned live community workouts, more healthy recipes to 206 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: our blog, and we will be continuously adding more content 207 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: to an NH fit community page.

All right, guys, 215 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: let's get straight back into the episode. I want to 216 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: chat a little more about the business side of stuff. So, 217 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: as you guys know, I have an online business, Naked 218 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: Harvest Natural Supplements, also obviously the podcast and then my 219 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: personal brand. And yeah, for the first couple of weeks, 220 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: I was in this mentality where I was like, Oh 221 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: my god, no one's gonna buy anything from Naked Harvest. 222 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: What have we done? Tim has just quit his job. 223 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to sell the house. Like I was spiraling. 224 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: I feel extremely lucky because it's not actually that much 225 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: changed in the business because we are an online business, 226 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 1: and I know there's lots of people who have it 227 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: extremely worse. But I was just in this really weird 228 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: place where I couldn't see out of my usual plans, 229 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: and I think that is because I'm a control freak. 230 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,360 Speaker 1: So basically we sat down. I sat down with Mel 231 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: and Cooper and we're all like, all right, this is happening. 232 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: This is a real thing. How are we going to adapt? 233 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: How are we going to pivot? And so we looked 234 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: at Naked Harvest and we have been doing nhfit, which 235 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 1: is a private Instagram account where we host workouts that 236 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: are approved by a pt and programmed over a month. 237 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: It's kind of like a challenge, and we wanted to 238 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: do that all home based, basically no equipment, just to 239 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 1: suit everyone. And we started that, like we had that 240 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: idea in December and it started in January, so we 241 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 1: had already been building on this thing. And this is 242 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: why guys like I really have faith in guided action, 243 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 1: because I remember when I got that idea about NH fit, 244 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, maybe we should do blah 245 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: blah blah, and it just seemed like such an odd, 246 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: random idea. And now I look back and I know 247 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: this sounds weird, but like that was such a guided 248 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: decision anyway, getting back to it, so I was like, Okay, 249 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: we have nh fit really focus on that, and then 250 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: the overall vibe for the whole thing was like everyone 251 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: is going through a huge change as a collective, we're 252 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: going to be feeling a lot of feelings. And basically 253 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: how we wanted to approach this as a business is 254 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: we wanted to support our community. So we thought, Okay, 255 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: what can we do in business to make sure Naked 256 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: Harvest sustains because like this guy's like, we are going 257 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: through a mini recession with everything happening, So it's like, 258 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: what can we do so Naked Harvest survives and we 259 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: can get through this? And then what can we do 260 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 1: to support our community? Because that like, without our community, 261 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: without our customers, we are nothing, So what can we 262 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 1: do to support them? And that was our main thing, 263 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: Like we literally wrote that down and so like some 264 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: little shifts. Just as an example, we slowered the entry 265 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: into nh fit so it used to be spend one 266 00:15:56,720 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: hundred dollars and now it's only spent eighty. We did 267 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: free shipping for a week, and guys like with that 268 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: free shipping like for example our samples, Like so we're 269 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: doing free shipping on samples and how much they cost us? 270 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: And then how much we have to pay for shipping 271 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: for you guys to get it free. We were like 272 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: just breaking even if not losing money. But the whole 273 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: focus is on community. So it was like it was like, 274 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: it's not even at this moment with business, I wouldn't 275 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: be focused on growth and like growing your profit and 276 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: all that sort of thing. I would just really be 277 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 1: focused on sustaining, keeping your customers, keeping your community happy, 278 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: and supporting them. Like that's exactly what we're doing. Yep. 279 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: So we dropped our entry into end h fit, we 280 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: did free shipping, and then we also started the life workout. 281 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: So we had this chat and we're like, okay, everyone 282 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: is now working out from home. Yes we've got n 283 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 1: h fit, but that is they've got to pay to 284 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: get in it. So what can we offer the community 285 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: completely for free, like you know, within our sphere of 286 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 1: skills and professions. And I'm not a pet, but I 287 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: obviously work out every single day, and so we came 288 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: up with let's do live workouts with the community. It's 289 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 1: good because you know, people are in isolation, so at 290 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: least they feel like they're working out with someone and 291 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: will create that community feel. That has been one of 292 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: the best steps that we did because for me personally, 293 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: I am loving the workouts so much because it is 294 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: keeping me motivated, it is keeping me like really in 295 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: tune with you guys and what you guys are doing. 296 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: And then also it's like it helps with our end 297 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: hate gang and all that sort of thing. So basically, 298 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,360 Speaker 1: for business wise, like my advice, in my personal opinion, 299 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: I would just be thinking, how can you support your 300 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: customer more than ever right now? Like what do they 301 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,920 Speaker 1: need right now from your profession or your set of skills, 302 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: and how can you give that to them externally and 303 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 1: online and for a pretty good price or like something 304 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: that really gives value and support to them. And then 305 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: also look at your business and think of how maybe 306 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: you can pivot or just like throughout the real book 307 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: and just see what works. Another thing I wanted to 308 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: talk about is for the last couple of months previous 309 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: I have really been craving like connection with like minded 310 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: people like community wise, and so I did last year 311 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 1: three live podcast events with Maddie from The Healthy Hustlers, 312 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 1: and we plan to well we don't know if it's 313 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: going to happen now, but we plan to do them 314 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: this year. Later in the year, so hopefully we can 315 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: still do those, but I was really craving kind of 316 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: like an intimate connection because obviously in the big events, 317 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: like we can meet people after, but it's not like 318 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: you get to sit down and have a chat. So 319 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 1: me and mel were brainstorming and we thought of how 320 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 1: we can do something like that. And so we actually 321 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: had been planning this for a while, and we're gonna 322 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: announce it. I think it like maybe this week. And 323 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: we had actually planned like an intimate self development workshop 324 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 1: day with me where I would meet up with like, 325 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: you know, maybe fifteen girls who all in the same 326 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: headspace of wanting connection, of basically wanting to take the 327 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: next step, interested in investing in themselves, interested in self development, 328 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: and so I would take you through this day of 329 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: basically the tools and formula I use at any like 330 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,719 Speaker 1: next step in my life. And so we had been 331 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: planned this, We're about to announce it, and then everything 332 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: happened and we were like, oh, okay, we obviously cannot 333 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: do this because you know, it was going to be 334 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 1: in this event space, and we had already got that 335 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: all organized, and we you know, we want to be safe, 336 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 1: we want to be complying with everything that is happening. 337 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: We want to be flattening the curve. And also we 338 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 1: don't know when this is going to finish. So instead 339 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 1: of just like sitting there and being like, oh my god, 340 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: you know, my intimate workshop day is ruined. I can't 341 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: do it. Me and Mel now are actually thinking of 342 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: how can we take this externally online? And we have 343 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,959 Speaker 1: a pretty good kind of idea and direction we're currently 344 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: planning it. So keep your eyes peeled if that kind 345 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: of sounds like something that you would be interested in. 346 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: And that is the whole thing, guys. It's kind of like, yup, okay, 347 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 1: that's not happening. What can I do now? How can 348 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: I bring this online? How can I do this externally? 349 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: How can I support people during this time? That's basically 350 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: what you want to be looking at. It's a pretty 351 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: cool time to try different stuff, to get out of 352 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 1: your comfort zone and to support people around you and 353 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: just see what works, see what sticks. Like, don't get 354 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: caught up too much in the what other people are 355 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 1: doing or what you're supposed to do. For me. What 356 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: I do in kind of like a crossroads is it's 357 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: the best time to like get quiet, to make sure 358 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: you're meditating, to make sure you're focusing on self care. 359 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 1: I'm a big journaler, so I have been journaling so much, 360 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: like every single day, I'm asking myself how I am, 361 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: I'm checking in, I'm asking myself what I need today, 362 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: and all that sort of thing. And I think another 363 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 1: thing I just want to finish on is realizing that 364 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 1: this time of stillness too might come at the perfect 365 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: time for you to do nothing. So I know, personally, 366 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: I just spoke about how I'm pivoting and base sickly 367 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: instead of going on holidays and all these fun social plans, 368 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: I'm getting more into my business that might be completely 369 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: opposite to you, and this might be the perfect time 370 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 1: to really chill out and slow down, because you know, 371 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: maybe burnout was coming. Maybe this has happened to you 372 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: at the exact right time of what you need. I 373 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: was actually looking and a girl that I follow, I 374 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: think she's like she's some sort of like life coach 375 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: or something, and basically she was like, hey, guys, I'm 376 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: actually taking a two week break off social media to 377 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: really just like focus on myself. And she explained that 378 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: she was going inwards and that's the feeling that she 379 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 1: was getting was that, and so she really just was like, Hey, 380 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 1: I'm actually going to take this time to slow down, 381 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 1: not be on here, do my own things. So like 382 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: that is exactly what I want you guys to do, 383 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: is not just be frantic and be like, oh my god, 384 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 1: what have I got to do? What's everyone else doing? 385 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 1: But go inwards and be like, Okay, what do I 386 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: feel cool to do right now? Do I feel cool 387 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: to start something new, to start working on something new, 388 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: or to learn a new skill, or is it do 389 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: I feel cool to actually take this time to really 390 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: chill out, to actually do nothing, to go more inwards 391 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: because it's going to be so different for everyone. All right, guys, 392 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,239 Speaker 1: I'm going to wrap up this episode.
