44
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: Before we get into the show, though, something I asked

45
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: or my guess is what is your favorite quote at

46
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: to Rise and Conquer?

47
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: Okay, so this is a real thought provoker.

48
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: My favorite quote that I live by is what comes

49
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: out of your mouth comes into your life. I've actually

50
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: never heard that before and I love it. Yeah, because

51
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: like when you walk around, the way you speak to people,

52
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: the way you speak to your partner, the way you

53
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: communicate at work, the way you communicate in your personal life,

54
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 1: it's so important. Even the way you speak to yourself

55
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: is so important. And I'm just a firm believer. It's

56
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: like manifesting. It's like mantras, your affirmations, Like whatever you speak,

57
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: those words that come out of your mouth come into

58
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: your life. That is what you create. Your words are

59
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 1: what you create. And I'm very conscious of like the

60
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: words that you say.

61
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 2: Yep.

62
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: And I feel like we've always both been big on mindset.

63
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: But even through really tough times, Mel has always been like, Georgie,

64
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: it's your mindset, we can get through this, like and just.

65
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 2: Gives me the best pep talks. I'm like, Okay, can

66
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: you go, I'll I'll do it about No.

67
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: I absolutely love that quote, never heard it and adore it.

68
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: So for those who may not know who you are,

69
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: like they should, You're all over my stories. Can you

70
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: just give us a snapshot of who you are and

71
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 1: what you do?

72
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 2: Sure?

73
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: So, just a little Backjop. I am twenty five years old.

74
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: I was born in the Gold Coast, but raised on

75
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 1: the Sunshine Coast.

76
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 2: That's where I went to school and after high school.

77
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 2: I so a backstory.

78
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 1: I in high school, I was a very competitive summar.

79
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,720
Speaker 1: I was an athlete my whole career. My whole swimming

80
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: career was just built around swimming. Like, loved it, breathed it.

81
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: That's all I focused on. That's all I cared about.

82
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: But when I finished school, I really needed to evaluate

83
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 1: what I was doing with my life. So I decided

84
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: to quit swimming and move to Brisbane to study. So

85
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: that's when I chose to study what I was doing,

86
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: which is a Bachelor of Business and Communications, Business and

87
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 1: Creative Industries. Yeah. So after I graduated from that degree,

88
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,280
Speaker 1: I pretty much started working for Georgie a few months

89
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: later and then followed her to the Gold Coast. And

90
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: so we're here progressed progressed and we will get into

91
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: more of Mel's story. But that is yeah, that's a

92
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: great snapshot.

93
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:16,679
Speaker 2: On the background, it's.

94
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 1: Me okay, perfect, thank you for that little snapshot. And

95
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: can you tell us what a day in the life

96
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 1: looks like, a little snapshot of that, just like a

97
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 1: week day. Yeah, Okay, I workeday, di work day.

98
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: We won't go into the actual work, but we'll talk

99
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 2: about the day. Yeah. So usually I wake up.

100
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: At five am, have a coffee in bed. Hopefully Dirk

101
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: brings that to me in the morning.

102
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: I could just stay in bed a little bit longer.

103
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: I tend to leave home by around six forty and

104
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: I'm at the warehouse before seven. To start my day.

105
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: I do the usual work day, which I'm sure we'll

106
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: get into later on. But yeah, on a regular day,

107
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: when there's no like imminent product launches, campaigns, anything like that,

108
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: I will try and leave the office around three point

109
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: thirty so I can get home and go to the

110
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: gym before it gets dark. And in summer, I'll usually

111
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: try and make it to the beach after gym, but

112
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: in winter it's too cold, dark, it's like no.

113
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 2: So I just go home, make my dinner and I'm

114
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 2: in bed by nine. Pretty average day, sounds like everyone

Speaker 2: else's day.

116
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 1: I love that, and I wanted to put that in

117
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: there because I think people are a bit confused with

118
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: like our times. But I love that you guys, because

119
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,080

134
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 1: major was public relations on the business side, and then

135
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: my major on the creative industry side was media and communications.

136
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: And I remember when we first met, you were very.

137
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: Like prominent about working in PR, which was which is

138

00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: that was kind of like you interned with me, and

144
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 1: there's an opportunity for a job post internship. So that's

145
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,720

Speaker 1: the time and I was like thinking, it was like

159
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 1: I can't, I can't do this in Mel's podcast.

160
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 2: So unless you are so all right?

161
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, So yeah, so I actually put well, I was

162
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 1: in the position where I had left my law job

163
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: and I was doing my social media stuff on the side,

164
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: and I really needed help because I left my law

165
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 1: job and I kind of wasn't advancing in the way

166
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: that I thought. And it's because I was doing so

167
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 1: many kind of admin tasks and just kind of things

168
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 1: where I was like, it would be amazing if I

169
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: could get help with this.

170
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 2: And yeah, do more.

171
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 1: And so I put like a thing on a Facebook group.

172
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,599
Speaker 2: I think I can't remember which one it was, but

173
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 2: it was like a business of it was it bees

174
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 2: that business bees one?

175
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a business Facebook group. I actually didn't

176
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: go in there much, but I actually like minded, yeah,

177
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: I think I think it was like yeah, and I

178
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: actually I actually did it in maybe three groups, and

179
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: I put the same thing where I was like, hey, guys,

180
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: I'm looking for someone part time maybe who's in UNI

181
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 1: or just finish UNI who can help me with my

182
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: social media business kind of like various jobs. And I

183
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: was a bit vague and then whom Mel was working

184
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: with at the time that she was just chatting about.

185
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: So her boss actually commented and we had no and

186
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 1: each other.

187
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: Just like through I think a couple.

188
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: Events we had met each other face to face, so

189
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: we kind of knew each other, and so she was like,

190
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: I actually have this really great In turn, she could

191
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: work for you part time, because I did say part

192
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: time and then me the rest.

193
00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 2: Of the time.

194
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: And so I was like, okay, cool, let's set up

195
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: the interview. And I got a little bit of other interests,

196
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: but I think it.

197
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 2: Was because I knew this person personally. The recommendation. Yeah,

198
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 2: so I was like, let's just see how this goes.

199
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: And then I met mel for ASII tell us about

200
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: the first time we met me less. So I was

201
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: honestly a bit hesitant about the job. I was hesitant

202
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: to even take the interview because I was like, influencer,

203
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: do I want to take someone's photos? I grew thought

204
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: that was the that was the extent of the role,

205
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: and I was like, I studied at university.

206
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 2: I didn't want to take someone's pics, you know, like,

207
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 2: I don't know, this is beneath me. Well. Also, I

208
00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 2: wasn't sure like what she'd be like as a person.

209
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 1: I didn't actually follow you and I went to go

210
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: look at your account. I was like, okay, she's got

211
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: At that time, I think you had like one hundred

212
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: and seventy thousand on Instagram, and I was like, oh

213
00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: my gosh, Okay, she's like quite big on Instagram.

214
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 2: She looks real, like, you.

215
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: Know, beautiful and boujie and she would just come back

216
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 1: from her honeymoon and the mal dies and I.

217
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 2: Was like, okay, what am I walking into this bitch?

218
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 1: And we rocked up and she was waiting for me

219
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: at this society place and she was in an act

220
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: were no makeup on, like zero minimal efforts.

221
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 2: I was like, okay, you don't make me feel bad

222
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:34,719
Speaker 2: about myself. We can go there.

223
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 1: And then yeah, so we had an interview and I

224
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,359
Speaker 1: kind of was just asking Mel a bunch of questions.

225
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 2: It was super chill. Yeah, she was lovely.

226
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 1: She immediately first impression, she was just someone I got

227
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: along with. We clicked like pretty much straight away. Our

228
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: chart was really good.

229
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just a vibe.

230
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: And I didn't even like ask you a resume, like

231
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: I ever showed you mine.

232
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: You were like, do you want my regime? And I

233
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 2: was like you. I was like, I was like, do

234
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 2: you just start next week?

235
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 1: And I offered Mel the job on the spot because

236
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,720
Speaker 1: I'm a big you know, guys, big vibe intuition person.

237
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 1: And I was just like, do you want to hear

238
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: my first impressions go on? So I was like, oh

239
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: my gosh, this chick is a total nerd Burger.

240
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 2: Which I loved.

241
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 1: Guys, when you're employing anyone, you want them to.

242
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 2: Be Yeah, I have that like essence. Yeah.

243
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,839
Speaker 1: But then also, like Mel said, like we clicked straight away,

244
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: we could have a chat. We were like laughing, very

245
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: like warm and down to earth. And then I also

246
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: got the vibe of the work ethic, which I guess is.

247
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,199
Speaker 2: The nerd Burger.

248
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. But ps, guys, Mel does not get offended when

249
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 1: it's so good. I was a nord Burger in high

250
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: school when I was doing laws, so all good and yeah.

251
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 1: So at first impressions were really great for me too,

252
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 1: so I was like, yeah, let's do this.

253
00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 2: And then Mel started working for me.

254
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: A couple of and then a bit of goss bitter teays.

255
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: So the PR agency she was working for basically got yeah,

256
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: they gave me an ultimatum. They realized that, so I

257
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 1: would think it was a couple of months after working

258
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: for you. So by this time we had like established

259
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: a relationship.

260
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 2: We're working together.

261
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: We had chats about like what we could do for

262
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: Georgie's personal brand, because I didn't just want to take

263
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: your photos.

264
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 2: I wanted to be a brand manager.

265
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 1: I wanted to help you build your personal brand and

266
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 1: projects all of that. Mel saw there was actually a

267
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: vision rather than just up and potential. I want to

268
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: just be an influencer, and I kind of expressed yeah,

269
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: my visions and dreams. So a couple of months past

270
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: that and then so yes, I was at the office

271
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: one day and I got sat down and basically got

272
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: given an ultimatum, as in, you know, you stopped working

273
00:13:55,480 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: for her or you have to You're getting fared basically

274
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: like you can't work for both because it was a

275
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: conflict of interest.

276
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I.

277
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 1: Was like all right, had a bit of a cry,

278
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: went to Georgie's that afternoon, literally came so I said.

279
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 2: I was like, what are you do?

280
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: Came over crying, and I was like, oh my god,

281
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,439
Speaker 1: I cannot leave lose this person. So I can when

282
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: you say this, yeah, yeah, okay, we'll pass this point.

283
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 1: I actually said to Mel, look, keep working for me.

284
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: You can tell the other company you quit, and we'll

285
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: just do it under the radar, and then I said,

286
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: as soon as I've got the means for you to

287
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: go full time, just come to me full time.

288
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 2: And that happened very quickly, didn't it.

289
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 1: That was a very hard thing for me to go

290
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 1: through though, because I'm a very honest, like buy the book.

291
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: I'm like, just lie, I know.

292
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: It was just like very like risky takes a risk.

293
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: I did not take risks. So I'm like, oh, this

294
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: is dangerous. I could get in trouble.

295
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 2: But I was like, what's gonna happen? Because I'll take

296
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 2: you on you.

297
00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 1: But also the reason I did it is because I

298
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: did listen to my gut, and if I hadn't, I

299
00:14:58,840 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: would have.

300
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 2: Been in a shit situation.

301
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: Really, I would have been screwed over if I didn't

302
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: listen to my gut and just take the leap and

303
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 1: do it anyway. So, and I think, obviously, without saying

304
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 1: too much more, the position, like the job Mel previously

305
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: in wasn't wasn't a great.

306
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 2: Environment, not me to thrive. I would never have thrived there. Yeah,

307
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 2: I was just yeah.

308
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: So I think it was more logically, You're like, this

309
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: is what I did my degree on.

310
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 2: Logically, this is what.

311
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: I share, this is what I should do, this is

312
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: what makes sense, this is secure. And then there was

313
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 1: the influencer route, which really I had not known too

314
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: many other influencers to openly talk about having employees and

315
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 1: people that work for them and build their personal brands.

316
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 1: Like that just wasn't even really a job. So I

317
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 1: was like, is this even going to be long term?

318
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: Like I remember talking to you a few years later

319
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: being like I thought this job was going to last

320
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: six months. Next minute, here we are four years later.

321
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: So Mel obviously came with me full time. We released

322
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: my ebook, we started the podcast, We did some big

323
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: things together, and Mel was really a catalyst, I think

324
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: for me kind of also betting on myself because I

325
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: was now paying someone a full time wage. So I

326
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: was like, fuck, I gotta make work, got to make

327
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: this work, and I've got to kind of keep going

328
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 1: where I definitely felt the difference of when it was

329
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: just me so much more less pressure, and so I

330
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: really loved that that pushed me because I was like, okay,

331
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: next steps, Like what.

332
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 2: Are we doing?

333
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: And you had someone to bounce your ideas of someone

334
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: who kind of knew the back end of how to

335
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: market and sell things, and it was kind of just

336
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: like our two heads put together to create some magic. Yeah,

337
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: it was just easier to do it with both of us. Yeah,

338
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,800
Speaker 1: And I think also, so I guess the job description

339
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: of when you were working with me full time just

340
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: explain to the peeps what you were doing.

341
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 2: So I was, I honestually can't remember love that thing.

342
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 1: I was her pr brand manager. So I helped her

343
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,680
Speaker 1: build her personal brand from what it was. So when

344
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: I started working for her, Georgie hadn't done anything but

345
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 1: influencer stuff. You just did paid collabse so you hadn't

346
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 1: released anything. So I didn't done anything myself, and we

347
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,919
Speaker 1: didn't put any thought no it's my personal right, No,

348
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: not at all, and like how you wanted to grow

349
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 1: as an influencer, none of that. So we kind of

350
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: we sat down and we had like huge, big brainstorms

351
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: about what her passions were, what she wanted to do

352
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 1: with her life. She was like very motivational, she wanted

353
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: to inspire other people. She was really into our intuitive

354
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: eating at the at that stage, which is when we

355
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 1: took out the ebook, when we created the ebook. Yeah,

356
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: so just kind of helped her build her personal brand,

357
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 1: build her projects on the side. Started with the ebook,

358
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: then it kind of went into her website, then it

359
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: went into her podcast, which we I guess created, and

360
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 1: then your online course, and then Naked Harvest was the

361
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: biggest one.

362
00:17:58,320 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, put Naked Harvest in that.

363
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 1: Well, speaking of Naked Harvest, let's kind of chat about

364
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: the transition from my business to Naked Harvest, because now

365
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: you are full time in Naked Harvest, which obviously wasn't

366
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: always the case, so kind of tell us about that

367
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:23,040
Speaker 1: transitional period. So I guess it was just it just

368
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: naturally happened. We didn't force it. We didn't say, okay,

369
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 1: so now you can't work for me, you have to

370
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 1: work fully Naked Harvest. But honestly, like Naked Harvest was

371
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: growing so quickly and there was so much to do,

372
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 1: and at that stage it was really just me and

373
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: Georgie and Cooper. So yeah, it was a natural progression

374
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: of me just kind of phasing out of GS and

375
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,879
Speaker 1: fading into Naked Harvest. The bigger it grew, Yeah, And

376
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: so I guess with Naked Harvest at the start, so

377
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: we were obviously planning Naked Harvest a good year before

378
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 1: it even launched. So during that time what we did

379
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: with mel Like, I guess this is just a business tip,

380
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 1: but so she would invoice my company for the time

381
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 1: with me and then invoice Naked Harvest. So she was

382
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: basically just splitting her time. I wasn't employed at that point.

383
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: I was a contractor working for two different entities. Yeah,

384
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: and so we split her time that way. And then yeah,

385
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 1: it just did get to the point where we were

386
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: kind of looking. I think I remember seeing one of

387
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: your invoices and it was like, you.

388
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 3: Know, forty eight hours of Naked Harvest and like four

389
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 3: hours yes, and it was like, okay, we can probably Yeah,

390
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 3: And I think also I remember also it got to

391
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 3: the point where I remember saying to you, I think,

392
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 3: if we don't because obviously you never wanted to leave

393
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 3: me high and dryer or you know, anything like that,

394
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 3: but I said to you, I think if we'd, if

395
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 3: you don't go full in Naked Harvest, you're someone like

396
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 3: me where you would feel like you're not thriving because

397
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 3: you're trying to.

398
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: Get between two different things. Yeah, I'm very much yeah,

399
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 1: like hundred percent agree. I like being a bit focused

400
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,199
Speaker 1: on the thing, and I really feel like when you

401
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: went into Naked Harvest full time, which when do you reckon?

402
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 1: That was like maybe an end of a year into

403
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 1: Naked Harvest or it was it was the end of

404
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 1: the first.

405
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 2: Year of H. Yes, so maybe like eight months or something.

406
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 1: And I remember when you did that transition, we really

407
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 1: saw such like a you know, huge increase with Naked

408
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: Harvest and everything because.

409
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 2: It's just yeah, I had so much more love to give.

410
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, and when it's just like anything like the more

411
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: time energy you put into something like, the more you.

412
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 2: Get out of it. So, well, let's chat about n

413
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 2: H and what you do.

414
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 1: So tell us about your role at n H. So,

415
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: back at the start, it was really just me, Joorgy

416
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: and Cooper, and so they needed a role title that

417
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,679
Speaker 1: would encompass all the random shit I did.

418
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 2: We couldn't just say.

419
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: Mel the person of all things.

420
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 2: Where's all the hats?

421
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, So we ended up calling me the Project

422
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 1: and Communications Manager, which ended up being a perfect role

423
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: title I think for.

424
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 2: What I do now.

425
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: But basically now that we have a team, so we've

426
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: got a social media assistant, a graphic designer, customer care manager,

427
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: we've got a full warehouse crew.

428
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 2: We work with internal, external.

429
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: Stakeholders that have roles in you know, any part that

430
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: they play in the company. So I pretty much manage

431
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 1: our projects across the board on the e commerce side

432
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: of things. But I also am like strategic in implementing

433
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 1: those strategies as well, So I don't just oversee everything,

434
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 1: but I actually like do it as well. So, yeah,

435
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 1: do you want me to run you through, like what

436
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 1: a day in the life is it?

437
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 2: Nh? Yeah?

438
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 1: Sure, So basically a day to day, I will start

439
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 1: at seven am, tackle my inbox, run my eyes across

440
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 1: our social media channels, our Clavio account, which is our

441
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: email marketing platform of ive site, our content calendar on

442
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: the social media side of things, and then our master

443
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 1: marketing calendar, which pretty much is a calendar for the

444
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 1: entire year. Everything that we do is rolled into that calendar.

445
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 1: So I look across everything every single day because I

446
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: am managing a bunch of projects at once, I need

447
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 1: to see a snapshot of what everyone is doing, what

448
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: everything is like, you know, what's happening, Are we on

449
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:22,480
Speaker 1: our right.

450
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 2: Timelines, all that kind of thing.

451
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 1: So then I'll kind of check in with our team,

452
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 1: have a chat in the morning about what the day's

453
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: plan is what our main focuses are for the day,

454
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 1: and then as the project manager, I have to spend

455
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 1: a little bit of time going through my project tracker

456
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: and marketing calendar to make sure that I'm across everything,

457
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: that we're traveling on the right timeline, that our team

458
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,360
Speaker 1: are up to date, that George and Cooper know what's

459
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: happening in the next couple of.

460
00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,199
Speaker 2: Weeks, all the good stuff.

461
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: So yeah, from there, I just prioritize my day assigned

462
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:56,120
Speaker 1: task to the team, get to work the husu. Right now,

463
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: we are gearing up for an exciting product launch, so

464
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 1: during a period like this, I'm usually doing everything from

465
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 1: writing copy for EDM, approving a bunch of stuff from

466
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: our team, making sure that I'm giving creative direction to

467
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: the people who need it, having meetings with Georgie and

468
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: Cooper to fill them in on what they're doing, talking

469
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 1: to our external stakeholders things like our advertising agencies, our

470
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: email marketing expert, our PR company, all of that stuff.

471
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,479
Speaker 1: Because there's just so many moving parts to pretty much

472
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: every product launch that we do, so I'm the kind

473
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 1: of I guess, the key point of contact for those

474
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 1: people and the facilitator to make them or do their

475
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 1: stuff for us as well. Yep, I guess, like how

476
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: I see Mel in the company? Like the reason why

477
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 1: we always say how important she is is so we

478
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: really set up naked harvests because like at the start,

479
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: Mel said, it was me, Cooper and Mel.

480
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 2: We were basically all doing.

481
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: Everything, just wearing all the hats. But obviously as you

482
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:03,160
Speaker 1: move forward, it's not like time wise, that's not efficient

483
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: efficient to do that. So basically how it goes is

484
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: Mel is managing all the projects, so everyone is kind

485
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 1: of under her, So she's talking to the graphic designer,

486
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 1: the social media system and whatnot, and then she will

487
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 1: organize that and then funnel it up and tell me

488
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 1: and Cooper, you know, the important stuff, get the approvals,

489
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: and then funnel it down. So rather than me talking

490
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: to the social media system, the graphic designer, Mel.

491
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 2: Pretty much through me.

492
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: It's coming through one yeah, one person. So it's very

493
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 1: efficient for us rather than me being across everything and

494
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: almost like doubling up, if that makes sense in saying that. Obviously,

495
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: then Mel has a huge responsibility because signed up. No, no,

496
00:24:55,200 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 1: but the responsibility and I I always say this, We'll

497
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 1: get into this in the in the podcast.

498
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,199
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's a lot of pressure, and you do

499
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 2: have to remind yourself that, like, if it does go wrong,

500
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 2: there's no one to blame for you.

501
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: But Mel is she very much treats the company like

502
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 1: it's her own. So she puts a lot of the

503
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: amount of times have come to work and Mel's like

504
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: crying feeling.

505
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 2: So much pressure. No, but I am so o cd

506
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 2: that I just she is a protection. Yeah.

507
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's kind of how I would, yeah, examine.

508
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 1: And for example, Mel came into our office the other day.

509
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 1: I mean, we're probably just talking to shit, and then

510
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: she came in. She was like, we've got this product

511
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,959
Speaker 1: launching in three months, let's talk about the campaign. So

512
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 1: then we'll discuss that idea and then Mel will take

513
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,120
Speaker 1: that back to the team and they will execute it.

514
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: So that's kind of how we do things. And obviously

515
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: also this is to be such a huge component when

516
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:11,879
Speaker 1: I'm giving mirth and have a little child, so it

517
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 1: will and that's why I'm so glad the way that

518
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,199
Speaker 1: we've done things from the start, because imagine if I

519
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: had my hands and everything and I was like, oh wait, guys,

520
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: in a couple of months.

521
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 2: Mail step in. Yeah.

522
00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 1: So I'm so glad the way we've done it from

523
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 1: the start because I think sometimes as owners of a company,

524
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: you do and you know what, I'm like, I'm a

525
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: bit of a control freak. So you do want to

526
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 1: control everything. You do want to be involved in everything.

527
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 2: But it's just not efficient.

528
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 1: It's not efficient, especially because you that's not your zoner's genius.

529
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: And that's like such a huge thing Mel would even

530
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: agree of even you know, the people under her.

531
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 2: She lets them do the job. She's not, you know, micromanaging. Yeah,

532
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 2: which is huge.

533
00:26:53,359 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: So I think, yeah, that definitely sums up what you do. Agreed, nurse. Oh,

534
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 1: this is a good question. I'm interested to know. Actually

535
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 1: we've talked about this so many times. Okay, so because

536
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 1: these are questions people don't hold back to the I

537
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: love people so brutal. So this is questions that I

538
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 1: put on my Instagram. But someone asks, does she get

539
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: tempted to go off and do her own beers? Do

540
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 1: you want to be an influencer yourself?

541
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 2: Why is this so funny? Also makes me die of laughter.

542
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 1: If you know me, you know that that's just not

543
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: my personality at all. I at that I don't like

544
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 1: being the person in front of things. I like being

545
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 1: the person behind the scenes. I like being like, I

546
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 1: don't know, just the one who makes sh it happen.

547
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 2: That's just me, is the magician behind the scene.

548
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just not built for influencer life. Can't do it.

549
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 1: I'm two shy guys.

550
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 2: But about the question, do I get.

551
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: Tempted to go off and start my own business, No,

552
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: because I feel fulfilled.

553
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 2: So I feel like if I ever hit a.

554
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: Roof and no longer felt fulfilled in what I was doing,

555
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 1: then sure I would go and explore other avenues. But

556
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: also I think it's different because I started Naked Harvest

557
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 1: with them from the very start. Literally the first meeting

558
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:22,919
Speaker 1: literally feels like mine. Like if I don't feel I'm

559
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: quite lucky because I don't often feel like I'm just

560
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 1: working for Georgie and Cooper, I'm not just their employee,

561
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 1: So I don't feel like, you know, I'm just working

562
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 1: for someone else my whole life, and that's not how

563
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: I feel. And I feel like it's mine too. But

564
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: that's a huge part of why it works so well,

565
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: and that's why, like, that's why I am so prominent

566
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: about telling you guys about Mel and making sure she's

567
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 1: shown and appreciated as much as I'm like, you motherfuckers,

568
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: no one better poke to her because I'll kill you

569
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: m all the time slide is deleted she shows me,

570
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is excuse me, this is interesting. No, no, obviously,

571
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: But I think a huge part that Mel has kind

572
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 1: of expressed me too is it's like Mel was saying,

573
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: she has such passion from Naked Harvest that it basically

574
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: is yours put my heart and soul into this company,

575
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: like everything I've had, like the what I would do

576
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 1: for myself is what I've done for Naked Harvest.

577
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 2: And we're also like.

578
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 1: For example, is if Mel doesn't like the way something's

579
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: going or it's like, you know, we need to really

580
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: explore this. Me and Cooper have always been like, yeah,

581
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 1: let's do it because we obviously obviously it's such a

582
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: huge part of the business and we feel like the

583
00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: exact same way, and obviously always your intentions are too better,

584
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: So I'm.

585
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, let's do it. You're the one you tell

586
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 2: me what you want to do.

587
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: But I think that's like the beauty and I think

588
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: sometimes owning your own business that is such like a

589
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: huge thing. Like me and Cooper always talked about as

590
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: long as you're listening to your employees and listening to

591
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: what they want and stuff and keeping them happy, like

592
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: that's so it is. It's a mental understanding of like

593
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 1: what each person wants. If mel was like wanted to

594
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: go out and make her own business, I'd be like, yeah,

595
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: what are we doing?

596
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 2: Am I doing? What can I be?

597
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: Like? And Cooper would be so oh my god, he

598
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 1: would die if he listened to this.

599
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 2: He'd be like full raging in the op.

600
00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, can we come to all right, we'll start can

601
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 1: bear gum? Guys were in the Home office with Baron Wolf,

602
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: so they've got their little coats on. All right, glad

603
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: we've answered that. Guys talk to us about your future career? Girls,

604
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: will you stay on the GC?

605
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 2: So my career goal to just keep going.

606
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 1: I'm not one of those people. And I've actually spoken

607
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: to Georgie about this before. I think she's asked me

608
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: big questions like you know, where do you see yourself

609
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: in five years?

610
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,440
Speaker 2: And I'm like, we were clearly drunk when wherever I

611
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 2: end up is where I end up.

612
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: Like I'm very much a person that I'm just going

613
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 1: to continue whatever feels right for me. I'm just going

614
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: to continue on that path, and wherever I end up

615
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 1: is where I'm supposed to have ended up with. Obviously,

616
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 1: a lot of hard work and shit goes into that.

617
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 1: It's not just like closing your eyes and hoping you

618
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:28,320
Speaker 1: get somewhere.

619
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 2: I'm lucky. Yeah, I'm just so lucky. No.

620
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, So my career goal is to just keep going,

621
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 1: to keep learning, keep you know, killing it, keep doing

622
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: I think also, I really like Mela is like a

623
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: creative soul. So for example, with new launches and stuff,

624
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 1: she's always thinking outside of the box, and we're always like, yeah,

626
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 2: So it's never stale. No, it's never stale. So exhausting,

627
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 2: I know, I said, we love it, but it's tiring

628
00:31:59,120 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 2: as shit.

629
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: I said the other day, I was like, Oh, we've

630
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: got like a pretty chill the rest, and then she

631

Speaker 1: like rattles off like all the new products, all the launchers,

632
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,959

633
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 1: this is last week.

634
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 2: I came in.

635
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: She's like, Oh, we're not launching this particular product for

Speaker 2: Are you talking about what flattered that you want? It's

639
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 2: launching in two weeks and we've got five other products launching.

640
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, but we stayed all the time, Like, oh,

641
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 1: it's exhausting, but it's also so much fun. But there's yeah,

642
00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 1: one hundred percent, Like my goal is to just because

643
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: we have so much going on and so many exciting

644
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 1: things happening, Like I'm already thinking about those things. Yeah,

645
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,479
Speaker 1: And I think mel a huge thing for you in

646
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 1: regards to your self development is to keep pushing the

647
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 1: bar and keep Yeah, as long as Naked Harvest grows,

648
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 1: I'm happy.

649
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 2: The minute we stop growing, that's it. I'm done. But

650
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 2: also your faults. Will I stay on the GC? Yes?

651
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 2: I will. This is where I.

652
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: Was born, my family here, my partner owns his own

653
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: business here on the Gold Coast.

654
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 2: We love it here. We love coastal life. Yeah, I

655
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 2: have no plans to move. I'll also say here come

656
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,440
Speaker 2: all right? We do both live two.

657
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:27,280
Speaker 1: Minutes from each I so palmally Okay, So what's your

658
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: favorite part of your role at Naked Harvests. I was

659
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: thinking about this before and It's really hard to choose,

660
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: but I think my favorite part in general is to

661
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 1: see every single campaign that we pull off, like see

662
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: it become something rather than just like an idea that

663
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: we talk about in your office or off the cuff

664
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,959
Speaker 1: on a whim somewhere, and then suddenly it's become this

665
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,680
Speaker 1: big thing and it's actually happened and we executed it

666
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,280
Speaker 1: and it's everything that you could have.

667
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 2: Ever dreamed of.

668
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 1: Like, it's so exciting, And that's the thing I love. Yeah,

669
00:33:58,240 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: that's one hundred percent of the thing I love the

670
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 1: most about my job is sometimes I'll have this idea

671
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: and I'm like, well, fuck, if this doesn't turn out right,

672
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 1: we're going to be devastated. Yeah, So like an idea

673
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: coming into fruition, Yeah, but to see it actually work

674
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 1: and come to life is like so rewarding.

675
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 2: I love it so much.

676
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm like, for example, we're we're doing some how

677
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: do I say this story, don't boil anything.

678
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 2: I'll get so offy.

679
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: You'll be so proud of me though, because even this

680
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,399
Speaker 1: new product we're launching, like I specifically haven't even been

681
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 1: like teasing it because you guys just fucking pick up stuff.

682
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 1: So easy, but I have been using I'm like struggling

683
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,280
Speaker 1: not to take a photo. But but I was actually

684
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,360
Speaker 1: chatting to because a couple of weekends ago when I

685
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 1: went to Sydney and that Stacks launch event, which was

686
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 1: just so grand and so spectacular, and I was saying

687
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 1: to someone, I really appreciate this because in Naked Harvest, Yeah,

688
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,439
Speaker 1: when we have this idea and we have the brain

689
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: storing idea and we usually think it's so far fair

690
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 1: and so like kind of crazy, and if we pull themselves,

691
00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: it's going to be so exciting, like when we did

692
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: the BCA's event and then we actually yeah, do it

693
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,279
Speaker 1: and you get a great outcome and the community loves it.

694
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: That is one hundred percent of the feeling where you're.

695
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,440
Speaker 2: Like, oh my god, it's a bit addictive.

696
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 1: It's the reason I like keep pushing for like so

697
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 1: more and more things and product launches, and like we'll

698
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: go bigger and harder every single time because it's like

699
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 1: so exciting.

700
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 2: To like our last proto. I was like, and we'll

701
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:28,359
Speaker 2: go bigger next time.

702
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, check it out of us.

703
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 1: And then what would you say would be the hardest

704
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 1: or your least favorite part of the role.

705
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 2: I guess that's two questions.

706
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 1: I genuinely don't think I've got an answer for this.

707
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: There's nothing I don't like. If there was something I

708
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: don't like, I wanted to do it. If there was

709
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: nothing I didn't like. I feel like I'm at the

710
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: stage how I just tell you I don't like to

711
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 1: do it, Yeah, and we give it to someone else.

712
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 2: I don't.

713
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,320
Speaker 1: If I don't like something, I give it to Melon.

714
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:59,520
Speaker 1: Then if she doesn't like, she gives it. No. I

715
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:04,640
Speaker 1: love because even the hard parts of the role are yeah,

716
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: the things that are the most rewarding.

717
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 2: If it's hard to do.

718
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: Like what sex quote that says like nothing worth doing

719
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: is ever easy. It's so true because like the hardest thing, yeah,

720
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 1: stuff like I mean, the hardest part probably is just

721
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 1: balance really at the end of the day, Yeah, just balancing,

722
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: Like a couple of weeks ago, when you're like I

723
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: promised myself I would actually leave the office at three

724
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 1: thirty this week, and it was like four thirty, and

725
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 1: I was like, oh.

726
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 2: So, yeah, that's probably the hardest part.

727
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: But that's just my own fault because I love what

728
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 1: I do, so no one else doing at myself. But

729
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,880
Speaker 1: in saying that, I think also, like me, you're pretty

730
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 1: big on seasons where you will be like, all right, fuck,

731
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,919
Speaker 1: we've got to get this launch happening, this new product. Yeah,

732
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 1: and you know when to push and yeah I went

733
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 1: to slow, and then you'll be like, all right, I'm

734
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: going to sell Australia now. Yeah, okay, rn C fam.

735
00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: We're taking a quick break and I want to ask you, guys,

736
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: are you getting your daily recommended intake of three fruits

737
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 1: and five veggies? No? Sometimes maybe I feel you on this.

738
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 2: Wow.

739
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 1: So, in a perfect world, we are getting all our

740
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 1: vitamin minerals and needs from our food directly. But because

741
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 1: we live such hectic lives and our soil is often

742
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:33,240
Speaker 1: lacking from so much farming done, that doesn't always happen

743
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,839
Speaker 1: that and that's why supplements are so popular, and that's

744
00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: why Naked Harvest was born just to be very transparent

745
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 1: with you. So what we really wanted to do was

746
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,279
Speaker 1: make sure you're getting what you need in a convenient

747
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 1: way when you're not getting your daily recommended intake of veggies.

748
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: In so introducing our newest product, Gorgeous Greens, which is

749
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: a greens powder that actually tastes delicious. So we have

750
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: been formulating this for quite a while because honestly, it

751
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: was so hard to have a greens powder that has

752
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: all the good stuff and that tastes delicious, Like I

753
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,840
Speaker 1: honestly get why so many other greens powders just taste

754
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: so foul. And honestly, any other greens powder I bought it,

755
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: I've just never finished and I just throw it away.

756
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: So there are two flavors. That is very vanilla and

757
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: Mango magic. I recommend getting very vanilla if you just

758
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 1: want to add it to your smoothies, but if you

759
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 1: do want to have it by itself, Mango Magic is

760
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 1: so delicious and so flavorsome. Also, guys, the greens Plowder

761
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 1: is gluten free, dairy free, vegan, refined, sugar free, and

762
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:53,320
Speaker 1: family friendly. So one scoop equals one serfs of veggies,

763
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:56,879
Speaker 1: so you're really getting veggies in at breakfast time if

764
00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: you're a smoothie lover like me, And it just makes

765
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 1: it easier to get all the veggies in and to

766
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:08,799

Speaker 1: need daily. So I absolutely know that if you try

Speaker 1: Miles Stone in your career? In my career, probably the

780
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 1: fact that I was so lucky enough to start a

781
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:12,239
Speaker 1: company from the ground up with two amazing people that.

782
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,399
Speaker 2: I like, look up to and love so much. I

783
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:15,840
Speaker 2: literally love them. I like family.

784
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: To be able to do that from such a young age,

785
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 1: like when we started working on Naked Harvest, I think

786
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 1: I was twenty two. That was three years ago, yeah,

787
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: because and Hates just turned two year before that, so

788
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:28,800
Speaker 1: I was twenty two years.

789
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 2: Old to be able to do that. It's fresh out.

790
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 1: Of UNI with almost no other experience in doing that

791
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: for previous you know, brands are companies anything like that,

792
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: and just seeing how it all works and making it

793
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: happen and it turning into this big thing is like.

794
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 2: It still shocks me. It does still shock me.

795
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's crazy, Like I'm still gobsmacks even thinking about

796
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: it always I do. I love that answer because that

797
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: is true, Like I feel the exact same way, and

798
00:40:56,600 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: even like so obviously like Mel's saying, like Mel's like,

799
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 1: you know, when you start a company in like the

800
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 1: CEO level sort of thing where you literally know.

801
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 2: Everything from the ground up.

802
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 1: We're picking all the decisions and yeah, and then to

803
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: see what it.

804
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:19,320
Speaker 2: Is now, it's like the whole brand identity and everything lovely.

805
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 1: What about is there kind of like a favorite milestone

806
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:26,320
Speaker 1: within maybe like their campaigns or something within Naked Harvest.

807
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:28,120
Speaker 2: Let me have a think.

808
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 1: I think probably the coolest thing to date is actually

809
00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 1: seeing Naked Harvest in store. M that's crazy because we

810
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 1: were like very adamant for a good year and a half.

811
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 1: They're like e commerce, e commerce, e commerce, we will

812
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 1: only be in online store, but then actually walking and

813
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: seeing actually no, I changed my mind. So erratic No,

814
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 1: you know what the best thing is. Tell us the

815
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 1: best thing is going to the gym or going somewhere

816
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 1: and seeing people walking around.

817
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,680
Speaker 2: With naked Harvest bottles. Yes, or they're freaking.

818
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 1: Having pre workout, or they're doing something, or they've got

819
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: a pop socket. I've literally seen girls at cafes with

820
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 1: pop sockets.

821
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 2: And I'm like, honey, this gives me life.

822
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,319
Speaker 1: I know, it makes me so happy that I'm the

823
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:14,879
Speaker 1: exact same where you see lack normal everyday people who

824
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: probably like I guarantee, I've seen it so many times

825
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 1: in shopping centers or something where they absolutely don't know

826
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 1: who I am.

827
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 2: I don't know who they are and they're.

828
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: Carrying something naked harvest, And even like an older demographic,

829
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 1: I love it. And I have friends tell me you know, Oh,

830
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 1: I went to work the other day and one of

831
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,880
Speaker 1: my girlfriends was sipping out of one of our lux bottles,

832
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: I know, and I'm like, that's amazing that someone, And

833
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:39,839
Speaker 1: then you know, I just love it.

834
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 2: It's really it's awesome to see.

835
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, that's definitely such a cool, bloody highlight. Yeah,

836
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,560
Speaker 1: and then what is your favorite naked harvest product? So

837
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,280
Speaker 1: the product I use the most is definitely pre workout

838
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: because I train five to six days a week, so

839
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 1: I have my pre workout pretty much every day.

840
00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:58,200
Speaker 2: Love it.

841
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,759
Speaker 1: Sweet Strawberry is my life. Candy Cane was my life

842
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:06,439
Speaker 1: and then it got dis continued Sara, I shouldn't swear.

843
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 1: A lot could be coming, guys.

844
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 2: And then probably my favorite product is the vanilla pancake.

845
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 2: Better Thrive just can't go wrong.

846
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 1: It goes in everything, pancakes, protein notes, smoothies, muffins, everything.

847
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: It's so vertat versatile and the actually exact same of you.

848
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,319
Speaker 1: I'm missing pre workout so much good.

849
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:32,880
Speaker 2: I know. I actually have had a couple of times

850
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 2: just for fun instead of coffee. Well yeah, instead of

851
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 2: my coffee.

852
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: So obviously you can't have more than two hundred mags

853
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: of coffee while being pregnant, but I missed my pre worker.

854
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 2: Just the feeling, yeah gives you. It just makes you

855
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 2: feel okay.

856
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 1: So let's get into the last section of the potty

857
00:43:56,040 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: and people just got some tips at waits. People just

858
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,959
Speaker 1: want some advice for you. So oh, this is great

859
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 1: coming off our last thing we just chatted about, how

860
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: do you build confidence in your role at such a

861
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:09,240
Speaker 1: young age.

862
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 2: I think she's not young anymore, two years older than me.

863
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?

864
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,760
Speaker 1: So I think part of it came from being having

865
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 1: like that rude shock of almost like the responsibility is

866
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 1: being thrust on you and you have no you have

867
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 1: no other option but to sink or swim, so you

868
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,040
Speaker 1: have to like and my choice obviously was to swim.

869
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:35,799
Speaker 1: I needed to be able to do it and pull

870
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 1: it off. So that automatically gives you the confidence that

871
00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,839
Speaker 1: you need because you're like, Okay, I'm actually capable of this.

872
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 1: Once you start seeing like the snowball effect happening and

873
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 1: you can see that like the stuff that you're doing

874
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 1: is actually working, it does give you that confidence. But

875
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,439
Speaker 1: having said that, there's things that I deal with which

876
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:54,880
Speaker 1: is like imposter syndrome and.

877
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 2: Stuff like that, which is quite hard to navigate. But yeah,

878
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 2: don't know.

879
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: No, no, I think I think that definitely, I don't know,

880
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:07,839
Speaker 1: jumps it up.

881
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:08,400
Speaker 2: Confidence.

882
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 1: I guess confidence literally comes from it also comes from

883
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 1: a good boss to be really honest with you giving

884
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 1: her But I think that's I definitely seen Meil progress.

885
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,160
Speaker 1: Like I think me and Coople were talking about this

886
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,600
Speaker 1: obviously a while ago, but we were like, we could

887
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 1: really see there was a certain point probably when you

888
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 1: transition full time in naked Harvest.

889
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 2: Oh no, I was thinking out there.

890
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 1: So last year in November when I had my miscarriage

891
00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,839
Speaker 1: and then had my implant removal surgery, it was right

892
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,400
Speaker 1: to being in the middle of Black Friday, which is

893
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: our biggest sale of the biggest quarter four for e

894
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: commerce brands is a ship show, and it's it is.

895
00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,400
Speaker 1: It's a ship show because every brand's doing a sale

896
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:56,560
Speaker 1: and you've got to get your conent in. And I

897
00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:58,839
Speaker 1: basically threw up my hands and was just like, Mail,

898
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 1: you need to sort this out because I just can't.

899
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 1: And Melbody handled it like a pro like there was

900
00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:09,399
Speaker 1: literally nothing I would have changed. Yeah, And I think

901
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:13,400
Speaker 1: then I was like, I can really see how she

902
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: has progressed and really come into your own because at

903
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 1: the start, I definitely could see some self doubt. I

904
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 1: could see the lack of confidence, and we would instill

905
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 1: and give you more responsibility, and you would progress to

906
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: a point where you can literally take hold of a

907
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 1: multiple step seven figure company and go here do the

908
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,440
Speaker 1: biggest sale of the year, and I have no issue.

909
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:41,560
Speaker 2: Good luck. I was like, good luck no, Yeah, I

910
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 2: don't know.

911
00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: I think it comes Yeah, like I'm very lucky that

912
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 1: I have very supportive people around me, supportive bosses like

913
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,080
Speaker 1: you guys give me the free reins to do what

914
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:53,200
Speaker 1: I need to do, so that also gives you the confidence.

915
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,280
Speaker 1: But also I think, like I would, I would definitely

916
00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:59,840
Speaker 1: say you're someone where I don't feel.

917
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 2: Like I've ever had to baby you.

918
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 1: No, like you've always been very independent from because also

919
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 1: from the get go, I've been pretty like here, do this,

920
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 1: make it happen, Like I'm a bit pretty to the

921
00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: point where I will throw melon the deep end and

922
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 1: obviously if anything happens, like I'm there, but I kind.

923
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:23,240
Speaker 2: Of be like that's where I thrive. Though yes, it's.

924
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:26,000
Speaker 1: Probably not the smartest advice to give someone, but I

925
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 1: thrive when I have limited resources and I just have

926
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:31,680
Speaker 1: to make it happen and I have to rely solely

927
00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,719
Speaker 1: on myself because I'm someone who like I well it's

928
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 1: just because I care so much, but I want to

929
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 1: make it perfect and on points I do everything I

930
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,319
Speaker 1: can to make it perfect and on point out, and

931
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,239
Speaker 1: I think you're also someone like she's so resourceful, like

932
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,320
Speaker 1: I remember if we don't know how to do something,

933
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 1: Mel would research it and find out how to do it,

934
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 1: so we don't need to, you know, get someone because

935
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,320
Speaker 1: like at the start you do you don't have any money,

936
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 1: you don't have any resources, and you just have to

937
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:00,239
Speaker 1: like make magic out of.

938
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 2: Shit pretty much.

939
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,040
Speaker 1: And so Mel would be like, so we would have

940
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 1: no idea how to do something, but instead of Yeah

941
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 1: being like, off, oh well we don't know, so we

942
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 1: won't do it. Yeah, or as I go, Okay, well

943
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:12,919
Speaker 1: we don't know how to do it, but we want

944
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,520
Speaker 1: to do it, so we're gonna fucking do it.

945
00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 2: We'll figure it out, we'll do the.

946
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 1: Research, we'll back it up, and we'll just makee we'll

947
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: just kind of like make it happen.

948
00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:23,759
Speaker 2: That was a long answer, that's ver Sure.

949
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 1: Well, I feel like that's a good tip for anyone though,

950
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,360
Speaker 1: is you know, don't just sit there and expect someone

951
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,239
Speaker 1: to sort it out for you. If you want to

952
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:33,360
Speaker 1: make it in your career, if you want to excel,

953
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: if you want to move up the ranks faster, whatever

954
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 1: it is, you need to be the one that's being resourceful,

955
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 1: being the problem solver. Like no one wants to sit

956
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: there and just go Oh, well, yeah, someone else.

957
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,399
Speaker 2: Will figure it out. Yeah, Like that's lame attitude. Ever,

958
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:49,800
Speaker 2: you can't get that out of itude, you guys.

959
00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:52,799
Speaker 1: Well, I think this feeds into our next question, which is,

960
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:56,480
Speaker 1: how do you how would you recommend someone getting like

961
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 1: their foot in the door at a repubital company, like

962
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:04,400
Speaker 1: getting their dream job. So I've had this question a lot,

963
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:06,919
Speaker 1: just over the years of working through Georgie, just young

964
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: girls like myself really, who just want to know how

965
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 1: to get that job, and I tell them the exact

966
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 1: same thing. And the first one is to get yourself

967
00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 1: internships while you're still at UNI. Because it's already hard

968
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,360
Speaker 1: to get an internship if you haven't had a previous internship.

969
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:23,480
Speaker 1: So you can imagine how hard it is to actually

970
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,759
Speaker 1: get an interview for a job if you don't have one.

971
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: It's just so important. I know it might seem hard,

972
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,760
Speaker 1: and for like anxious people. I was quite an anxious

973
00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: girl at UNI. It was such a challenge to actually

974
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 1: put myself out there for internships. But I just had

975
00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 1: to suck it up and do it because I knew

976
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,840
Speaker 1: once I graduated, I wanted more opportunities and I wanted

977
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:42,720
Speaker 1: to have a better resume.

978
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:43,800
Speaker 2: Than other people.

979
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 1: I think also in such a competitive market, like for me,

980
00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:50,200
Speaker 1: for example, if I don't see someone just done an

981
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 1: internship in their UNI, I straight away think they're lazy, agreed,

982
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: and it's like, well, how are you going to apply

983
00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,760
Speaker 1: they're doing that, you don't have any Yeah, one hundred

984
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:02,680
Speaker 1: percent bare minimum doesn't fly. So number one internships. Number

985
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:05,799
Speaker 1: two are build a portfolio. Don't just give them your

986
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,319
Speaker 1: resume and cover letter like I need to see And

987
00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 1: I do this now with people, but.

988
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 2: It so anytime, I'm a bit brutal.

989
00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:14,920
Speaker 1: If you send through your resume and it's in a

990
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:16,880
Speaker 1: word document, I'm not even looking at it.

991
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:17,600
Speaker 2: I just can't.

992
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:20,439
Speaker 1: So this is the funniest thing, like because obviously we've

993
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,799
Speaker 1: hired some people lately and built our team.

994
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,240
Speaker 2: And Mel literally she goes.

995
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:29,280
Speaker 1: If someone's like, especially if it's a position like graphic

996
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:33,239
Speaker 1: designer or any creative role, any creative role, She's like,

997
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:37,719
Speaker 1: if you send a resume with just word nothing exciting,

998
00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:39,319
Speaker 1: I will refuse to look at it.

999
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:40,879
Speaker 2: I can't. I can't look at it.

1000
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 1: And I might be the smartest person, the best person,

1001
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 1: the best applicant in the job, I'm not looking at

1002
00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:49,040
Speaker 1: it because it means you don't understand the role you're

1003
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 1: actually applying for, Like you're not putting in that extra effort.

1004
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,040
Speaker 1: Anyone can truct together words on a word document and

1005
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 1: call it a day.

1006
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 2: Like I remember when I was applying.

1007
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 1: For jobs, I had a travel blog that I did

1008
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,400
Speaker 1: for fun that was just like on Tumblr that I'd coded,

1009
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,280
Speaker 1: So I just had that that I would give people.

1010
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 1: I had a full portfolio full of work, things that

1011
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: I did at UNI, but also things that I did

1012
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: at internships, and then things that I did on my

1013
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,719
Speaker 1: own as well. So I had my portfolio. I had

1014
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 1: my beautifully designed resume that I was you didn't even

1015
00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:21,959
Speaker 1: get to see, but it was beautiful. And then you know, yeah,

1016
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 1: like I just think you need to be.

1017
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:26,399
Speaker 2: A big thing we were chatting about.

1018
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:29,640
Speaker 1: Because there's also something my podcast manager did which I

1019
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 1: felt really went above and beyond. But Mel would send

1020
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 1: out a video. So I sent a pitch video to

1021
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 1: anyone I applied for a job for.

1022
00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,040
Speaker 2: And that's how I got my interviews. I dead set

1023
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:42,839
Speaker 2: believe that's how I got my interviews. Well that's why

1024
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:43,880
Speaker 2: I hired my podcast man.

1025
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 1: I sat down and I filmed a full It was

1026
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 1: basically like a resume in a video format, and I

1027
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:51,640
Speaker 1: pitched them why they needed to have me on their

1028
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,319
Speaker 1: team just to get an interview. That wasn't even too

1029
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,080
Speaker 1: you know after the interview. That was to get an interview.

1030
00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,440
Speaker 2: So that's the kind of things where you think outside

1031
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 2: the box and go, okay, well, how am I going

1032
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 2: to stand out in a of resumes?

1033
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,400
Speaker 1: Because when we had my social media assistant before we

1034
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:08,799
Speaker 1: hired her and we had the application out, I think

1035
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:12,520
Speaker 1: I got upwards of one hundred and fifty resumes and

1036
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:15,359
Speaker 1: I shortlisted about sixteen of them and then from there

1037
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:16,279
Speaker 1: we interviewed four.

1038
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's brutal.

1039
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: And like you need to understand that that is what

1040
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,360
Speaker 1: every other company does and we are like a small

1041
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 1: fish compared to the big companies. So you need to

1042
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 1: be able to figure out how you can stand out.

1043
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 1: And something that our last hire did that we both

1044
00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:36,759
Speaker 1: agreed was really good is after the interview, she sent

1045
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:40,360
Speaker 1: us a document where we didn't even ask her to

1046
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,239
Speaker 1: do this, and she sent us a document pitching how

1047
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:49,280
Speaker 1: she would like sell our products and market certain things

1048
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,440
Speaker 1: and just you know, it's just a camp document.

1049
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just a follow up document.

1050
00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 1: Of how she would use her skills to create a

1051
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:58,880
Speaker 1: better strategy. That yeah, it was, and it was like

1052
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 1: it's something so simple that she whipped up in canvas,

1053
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,319
Speaker 1: but I just thought that's something extra that made me

1054
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 1: be like, oh, she went above and beyond anyone else.

1055
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 2: And she got the job. Yep, that's it. Love that

1056
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 2: So yeah, sorry.

1057
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:14,840
Speaker 1: Apart from that, we did go on a bit of

1058
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,759
Speaker 1: a tangent a few more tips to you guys. So

1059

00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,800
Speaker 1: thing for us, is what, Like I was talking about

1074
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:08,280
Speaker 1: that previous higher were they knew like really good TikTok

1075
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,440

1077
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:18,480
Speaker 1: All right, So last couple of questions, what motivates you?

1078
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 2: Mouth broad questions?

1079
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is a broad question. I'm the only person

1080
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 1: I say that motivates me. I motivate myself all the

1081
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: time because I'm such a Type A. No, we're really

1082
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:35,759
Speaker 1: if you're not motivating yourself and really, what are you doing?

1083
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:41,160
Speaker 1: But I am such a type A highly driven competitive

1084
00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 1: individual that I demand like greatness from whatever I do.

1085
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 2: It's disturbing.

1086
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: I do not reckon we're like because I would say

1087
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:53,800
Speaker 1: I'm a typeage two but we're so different.

1088
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, because we're both Type A. Yeah weird.

1089
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 1: Well maybe it's something else then it's not just type Ay,

1090
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,600
Speaker 1: I don't know what this is. I'm a very driven

1091
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,400
Speaker 1: individual in Yeah, I've been growing up as an athlete.

1092
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 1: I stand that, you know, like determination and grid and

1093
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 1: stuff like that that I just like have been built

1094
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:10,920
Speaker 1: up to be.

1095
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:12,759
Speaker 2: So I'm very much like that.

1096
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:17,400
Speaker 1: But I just don't accept anything less than like quality stuff,

1097
00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:19,360
Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? But don't you agree

1098
00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,280
Speaker 1: that that's almost what we're talking about the very start

1099
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:28,480
Speaker 1: with your quote of like in your life you attract

1100
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:32,120
Speaker 1: and you accept what you deserve because you are that

1101
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:32,800
Speaker 1: sort of person.

1102
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,760
Speaker 2: That's why you have the life you do. Yeah, mind blown,

1103
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:44,920
Speaker 2: mind mind blown manifest Yeah no, and my manifesting just

1104
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 2: a little bit. Yeah No.

1105
00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,680
Speaker 1: I one hundred percent think that you have to have

1106
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 1: the mindset of wanting to be the best, wanting to

1107
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:56,000
Speaker 1: be better than you know others out there, because that's

1108
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 1: what's going to motivate.

1109
00:55:56,800 --> 00:56:00,439
Speaker 2: You to do the best. Love it to the best.

1110
00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 2: You gotta do the best. I think you'll like a

1111
00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:07,839
Speaker 2: bloody motivation. I should do a Ted talk And what

1112
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:08,720
Speaker 2: would you say?

1113
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 1: Kind of your passions are outside of work and how

1114
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 1: do you balance things?

1115
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 2: So?

1116
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:17,840
Speaker 1: I think my passion this is gonna sound so sad.

1117
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,160
Speaker 1: My passion is like my work.

1118
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:26,480
Speaker 2: You literally sounds like me. I also sound like your

1119
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 2: dad a little bit. I know my passion is my work.

1120
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:33,959
Speaker 2: Like what I do gives me the most passion, it does,

1121
00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:34,920
Speaker 2: it's creative.

1122
00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 1: It like fills every single one of my like creative needs.

1123
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 2: But also I think that if that wasn't true, you

1124
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:42,719
Speaker 2: wouldn't be in the job you want to do it.

1125
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: You'd be like yeah, but like, I mean, what do

1126
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,640
Speaker 1: you want to know? Like my hobbies, I like what

1127
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:52,760
Speaker 1: I like. I like being creative, I like taking photos,

1128
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,480
Speaker 1: I like traveling. Yeah, I like doing all of that

1129
00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:59,080
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. But yeah, my passion is one hundred

1130
00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:00,040
Speaker 1: percent work.

1131
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:01,799
Speaker 2: My job.

1132
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,359
Speaker 1: We are so sad, but also I feel like our

1133
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 1: jobs are so fulfilling, so it's not even sad. No,

1134
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:11,920
Speaker 1: I don't think it's sad, all right. Last question, the

1135
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:13,319
Speaker 1: question everyone wants to know.

1136
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 2: Do we fight?

1137
00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 1: How do we maintain a healthy work relationship.

1138
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:19,640
Speaker 2: I'll let you answer that one.

1139
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:23,880
Speaker 1: No, I don't think we don't fight, because that would

1140
00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 1: be an extremely immature thing to do.

1141
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,000
Speaker 2: I don't think we would laugh at ever had a fight.

1142
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:29,840
Speaker 1: I don't think we've had a fight. I think we've

1143
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 1: had disagreements.

1144
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:35,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's been there's been time I whoa, whoa, whoa.

1145
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:40,160
Speaker 2: I've been like, excuse no, But it's like when you

1146
00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:41,600
Speaker 2: like it's like.

1147
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:44,080
Speaker 1: Me and Tim like obviously I love him and or him.

1148
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,160
Speaker 2: He's my husband. I won't spend my life with him,

1149
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:51,640
Speaker 2: but there's times where I'm like, oh, you're annoying and

1150
00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:52,640
Speaker 2: so like it would.

1151
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,680
Speaker 1: Be weird if you know, well, we literally I don't

1152
00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:57,920
Speaker 1: think I talked to another person apart from my partner

1153
00:57:57,920 --> 00:57:59,960
Speaker 1: as much as I talk to Georgie in each other's

1154
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:02,400
Speaker 1: faces every day.

1155
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 2: It's exhausting, guys, it's fucking tiring.

1156
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: No, but you can't be working in that close quarters

1157
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 1: with someone and also have the level of trust and

1158
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:13,560
Speaker 1: communication that we do without occasionally bumping heads.

1159
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 2: You're going to do that.

1160
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,959
Speaker 1: And also Georgie and I exactly what we said where

1161
00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 1: type A individuals, we're both the same, Like we're.

1162
00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 2: Both very controlling, yeah, and like not like submissive. I

1163
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 2: don't know.

1164
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 1: Georgie just doesn't tell me, yeah I want to do this,

1165
00:58:26,400 --> 00:58:29,320
Speaker 1: and I go all right, yeah, I'll be like why

1166
00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: why do you want to do that? And it's not

1167
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:33,320
Speaker 1: like I just be like, don't ask why, I have

1168
00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:35,720
Speaker 1: fucking come of answer, just do it.

1169
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 2: So I think that's where, like ditan.

1170
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,960
Speaker 1: Do, I think the second question of how we maintain

1171
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:47,439
Speaker 1: a healthy work relationship, I honestly think it comes down

1172
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 1: to respect, Like I don't think I've ever said to

1173
00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:55,520
Speaker 1: you if we're you know, in a position of deciding something.

1174
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:57,640
Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever said to you, well, i'm

1175
00:58:57,640 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 2: the owner, so we're doing this, or.

1176
00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:08,440
Speaker 1: Anything where I've made you feel less than Yeah I agree, well, like, yeah, okay, good, this.

1177
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 2: Is what I agree.

1178
00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:10,760
Speaker 1: Because if you had said something like that to me

1179
00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: straight up, would have been like, all right, see you later.

1180
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:14,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1181
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:18,439
Speaker 1: I think the mutual And that's also a huge thing

1182
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:22,760
Speaker 1: with Mel and me. Sorry, yeah, Mel to me, as

1183
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,320
Speaker 1: she has so much respect for me and how I

1184
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:30,000
Speaker 1: do things. There's the mutual respect there that makes the

1185
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:33,800
Speaker 1: relationship healthy. And even though you know we might bump heads,

1186
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 1: it's never like I don't think I've ever left work

1187
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:40,400
Speaker 1: being like oh fuck Mel, or you know anything like that.

1188
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:45,040
Speaker 1: Like I think it's healthy to disagree and have conversations,

1189
00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 1: like it would be weird if we didn't.

1190
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:48,080
Speaker 2: But we like a bit of a challenge. We do.

1191
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:52,360
Speaker 1: Was LIKEO was like whoa, whoa, whoa. You guys are

1192
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 1: so spicy, and me and Mel like love it. Yeah,

1193
00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:56,680
Speaker 1: we like a bit of a challenge because like you've

1194
00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:59,280
Speaker 1: got to challenge each other, you know, have a discussion.

1195
00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:00,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love.

1196
01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:03,600
Speaker 1: I love a good argument to me too, well, not

1197
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:05,480
Speaker 1: you you with me?

1198
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:10,760
Speaker 2: I know, I enjoy a discussion, but sometimes I.

1199
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 1: Cry that me and me posted it the other day.

1200
01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 2: How the lawyers not crist argue that's literally mean.

1201
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:24,440
Speaker 1: Apart from having respect for each other, I think there's also.

1202
01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 2: A very big level of trust as well.

1203
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,320
Speaker 1: I think it wouldn't work that way if you didn't

1204
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 1: trust me to do what I know, like what you want,

1205
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:33,439
Speaker 1: if that makes sense.

1206
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you would trust me to execute your vision.

1207
01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:39,600
Speaker 1: Yes, true, a product launch, for a campaign, for a sale,

1208
01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 1: whatever that is. So there's no like friction there because

1209
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: you're like, yep, Mel's got it sorted.

1210
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1211
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 1: And if Georgie wants to do something, I'm like, okay, cool,

1212
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:48,560
Speaker 1: well she knows what she wants to do, so let's

1213
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 1: do it.

1214
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, true, that's so true.

1215
01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:53,919
Speaker 1: And even I remember there was kind of a transitional

1216
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:58,080
Speaker 1: period where I was really letting you take leads so

1217
01:00:58,160 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 1: we could sort out, you know, the system of the company.

1218
01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:03,560
Speaker 1: And there was a couple of things where I really

1219
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 1: wanted to micro yeah, micro manage you in a certain way,

1220
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:10,919
Speaker 1: and I had to kind of step back and go

1221
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:12,800
Speaker 1: she's capable.

1222
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 2: I trust her.

1223
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:16,360
Speaker 1: She's obviously in that position for a reason, so I

1224
01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:19,760
Speaker 1: need to let it play out. And obviously in the

1225
01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 1: long run, that works so much better because then you

1226
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:26,160
Speaker 1: were able, You were capable. But I think then also

1227
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 1: having because I've had bosses previously where they do micro

1228
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:33,160
Speaker 1: manage you. There's no yeah, there's no trust, there's no respect,

1229
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 1: and you're just like, what's even the point? Yeah, So

1230
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:39,320
Speaker 1: it's kind of that kind of give and take of it.

1231
01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:40,280
Speaker 2: All agreed.

1232
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:45,720
Speaker 1: So I think we've always already covered this, but we'll

1233
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,920
Speaker 1: just say it again. What would you say you are

1234
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:51,240
Speaker 1: most proud of within your career.

1235
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:56,880
Speaker 2: That Naked Harvest hasn't flopped, It's two years old and

1236
01:01:56,920 --> 01:02:00,680
Speaker 2: going strong. Thank God for that. Thank goodness? You know,

1237
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:02,520
Speaker 2: do you thank god? It wasn't just a two second

1238
01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:05,640
Speaker 2: influence of brand. I know that's that was the real possibility.

1239
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:06,959
Speaker 2: That was our biggest thing.

1240
01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 1: No, but how could it because we were so specific

1241
01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 1: at the start.

1242
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:12,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm most proud of.

1243
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:15,919
Speaker 1: Okay, And so what are you most excited for for

1244
01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:17,080
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one?

1245
01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 2: What does the future look like? The male like bold

1246
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:23,840
Speaker 2: action wise? Yeah, we love some bold action on here. Well,

1247
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:24,520
Speaker 2: like I've said this.

1248
01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:27,960
Speaker 1: Before, unpopular opinion, I don't have a bold action plan

1249
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:28,840
Speaker 1: for twenty twenty one.

1250
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,840
Speaker 2: Just get through these products launch. I just keep I

1251
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:33,640
Speaker 2: just keep going.

1252
01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:36,320
Speaker 1: Like my goal every single year is to tap into

1253
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,720
Speaker 1: my intuition, to follow my heart, to feel what like,

1254
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 1: to do what feels right, to push when I.

1255
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:43,600
Speaker 2: Need to, to slow.

1256
01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:46,360
Speaker 1: Down when I need to. It's honestly just about trusting

1257
01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:49,400
Speaker 1: what feels right, because it always ends up for me

1258
01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 1: so far, at least, it's always ended up like way

1259
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,120
Speaker 1: better than what I thought it would be. I've always

1260
01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:56,480
Speaker 1: ended up like way further ahead than I wanted to

1261
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:58,600
Speaker 1: be or then lack acad envision. So I try not

1262
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:01,200
Speaker 1: to like put that pressure on myself because I know that,

1263
01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,520
Speaker 1: like by putting in the work, by trusting myself, by

1264
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 1: doing what needs to be done, I'm going to get

1265
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:06,800
Speaker 1: to where I want to be in the end of

1266
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:07,120
Speaker 1: the year.

1267
01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:08,560
Speaker 2: I love that.

1268
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,040
Speaker 1: And it's funny because I'm almost the same now where

1269
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:13,840
Speaker 1: I don't goal set like I used to, because I'm like,

1270
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 1: we're already we're usually twenty times agree ahead.

1271
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:19,480
Speaker 2: So I'm just going to go with the flows. It

1272
01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 2: seems to Yeah, but I quite enjoy that because I don't.

1273
01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:25,640
Speaker 2: It's let's just like le stress, let's control.

1274
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:27,920
Speaker 1: And also, once you set a goal, it's almost like

1275
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 1: you can't deviate from that. So if something changes and

1276
01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:32,120
Speaker 1: throws a spanner in the work, so you're left it

1277
01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 1: with a bit. Yeah, and what I do now if

1278
01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:39,240
Speaker 1: to COVID, we've realized that fuck, you just got to

1279
01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,240
Speaker 1: go with the flow and let things happen. And they

1280
01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 1: do usually, you know, if you've got the best intentions,

1281

Speaker 1: they usually end up better than you could have imagine. Yeah, oh, Mel,
