WEBVTT
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:52.719
Hi, welcome to the We Have Range podcast.
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:54.159
I'm Michelle Gresham.
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:56.560
And I'm Ivory Jordan.
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:02.159
All right, so we're shaking it up for our season one review.
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:06.480
We are remote, um, and we're shaking it up for season two as well.
00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:12.560
But I'm in Phoenix, Arizona, and Ivory is recording from California, her second home.
00:01:12.799 --> 00:01:21.760
And um, we're gonna do all things season one and talk about what we loved and what we didn't like, what we learned.
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.439
Um, I don't know.
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:24.799
Ivory, what's been going on?
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:27.439
I haven't seen you in what a good month.
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:30.560
I mean, we've talked, but I haven't physically seen you and hung out.
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:34.079
I feel like it's been, yeah, it's been about a month since we filmed.
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:37.920
Um, we were filming with Morel the last time.
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:39.840
Oh, when we did our photo shoot so far.
00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:40.959
We did our photo shoot.
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:42.879
The pictures are looking fire.
00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:44.879
Um, I'm actually gonna see him later today.
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:47.120
We're gonna do pool day here in Arizona.
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:48.079
I'm jealous.
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:50.000
I thought about that when you mentioned that.
00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:53.040
I was like, oh, I wish I could be there.
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:55.920
Yeah, so what's been going on?
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.760
I'm feeling a little um, I'm feeling anxious, one.
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:04.000
We were trying to figure out our whole setup at home.
00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:05.200
Um, this is not our.
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:06.959
We're still figuring it out, y'all.
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:16.560
Listen, what what we recognize is that uh when you are, you can prepare as much as you want, but when it's game time, you just gotta go.
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:20.719
No matter how ready you feel, you just gotta make it happen.
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:24.000
But Michelle, what's been going, what's been going on in your world?
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:29.280
How is your how's daytime career balancing being an entrepreneur?
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:31.919
Anything standing out for you right now?
00:02:32.639 --> 00:02:35.039
Um what's standing out for me?
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:37.599
Well, the new job is fire.
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:39.919
It's literally one of my dream roles.
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:45.039
Um, you know how much I'm passionate about people, leading people and developing and coaching.
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:56.800
So I feel like my day is moving into, well, no, my evening with being an executive coach is definitely informing a lot in my daytime.
00:02:57.199 --> 00:03:02.479
Um, because I'm coaching and developing people to leading, and uh it's just it's fun.
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:11.840
I've been having a lot of fun because I like to win, so I'm still deal making, um, managing a PL and it's um it's what I live for.
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:12.560
It's fun.
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:14.319
Every day is different.
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:22.560
Um, I'm not an office person, so I'm out with clients, I'm in the office at times, but we're doing fun stuff.
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:33.199
Today I'm feeling exhausted, which is why I'm just having a pool day at the house, um, with some friends, food, drinks, and um I don't know.
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:34.159
I need a vacation.
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:34.800
What about you?
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:36.080
What's up, what's up with you?
00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:37.599
What have you been up to?
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.240
Uh well, uh a lot.
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:42.159
So tell me.
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:51.599
I always say I have a career, I'm an entrepreneur, I want to I run a business um that I'm really excited about, actually.
00:03:51.919 --> 00:04:02.479
Um, and I just I think all the things being an entrepreneur and having children, living in a couple states, uh this is not for the faint of heart, honey.
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:27.519
But what I'm recognizing just at this stage in the game, 20 plus years and career, and now making this entrepreneurial pivot, is that um there's a lot of similarities that I've taken from career that I am using in my entrepreneurial endeavors and vice versa, I would say.
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:32.480
So the skill sets um are certainly interchangeable.
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:44.000
And uh I'm just I do think I've I I feel confident I am at this stage where I put up with a lot less shit.
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:46.319
So tell me about it.
00:04:46.959 --> 00:05:08.240
I am accepting who I am, what my experience looks like, and I'm really leaning into doing things that serve me well and um making sure to continue to set boundaries personally and professionally, and um just trying to make sure to balance it all.
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:09.920
So I love that.
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.040
So the other day I had the pleasure.
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:14.000
Can you see this book?
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:31.920
I didn't know the comeback era, and uh Yasmin Shem uh Cheyenne is the author, and I'm a member of Chief, and so they had this event the other day across the country where she spoke um to the entire Chief organization, and people were piping in from everywhere.
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:41.680
In Phoenix, we had The Gathering with Everybody, and this book literally talks about it's it was kind of ironic because the tagline says Living Without Limits.
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.079
And what is our tagline for We Have Range?
00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:48.480
We have range no limits without limits.
00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:50.319
We say without limits, no limits.
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:54.480
And so when I saw that, I was like, Oh, this is so good.
00:05:54.800 --> 00:06:00.399
Not, you know, knowing that we were going to record uh today, and this was just a few days ago when I joined that.
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.600
But some of the things she talked about is exactly what you you said.
00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:04.720
She's like, Can I be honest?
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:07.519
And we're all sitting there like, this is on as heaven.
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:23.759
Like, you can't come and not be authentic in front of this group because that's what Chief talks about, the multifaceted, which you and I multifaceted, we're doing all the things day career, evening career, raising families, um, and being in relationships with people.
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:29.439
But some of the things she talked about, and I wanted to share it with you, and I want to see which one resonates for you.
00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:37.680
The seven C's, she has a chapter in there, and one of the questions I asked her, which one um resonated with her most?
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:47.839
And here's the seven commitment, community, creativity, compelling, choice, challenging, confirming.
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.839
Which one do you think she said resonated with her most?
00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:54.160
And I want to know which one resonates with you.
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:59.439
Community, commitment was one.
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:02.800
And stop me when you think the one you think it is.
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:09.839
Community, creativity, compelling, choice, challenging, confirming.
00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:13.360
Gosh, I love a lot of those.
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:17.439
Uh, but for me, what like instantly resonates is choice.
00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:19.519
Oh, that's the one she said.
00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:29.360
The reason why I love when she said that, I was like, ooh, because it's nothing like having autonomy and making your own choices.
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:31.279
So last night you and I were texting.
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:33.920
You was like, hey, I need you to take this personality test.
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:36.319
And Ivory and I know each other.
00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:43.839
Personality test is so um objective that you can't, you can't finagle.
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:47.360
You're gonna ask, you're gonna answer the questions and you're gonna spit out this result.
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:48.480
And I know why you did it.
00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:50.319
And I said to you, what did I say to you?
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:54.079
You said, uh, you're giving me homework, and I don't know.
00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:55.759
I was like, Why are you giving me homework?
00:07:56.000 --> 00:07:57.920
And you're like, I said it's not urgent.
00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:01.199
And I was like, Oh, it's for you more than it is for me.
00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:06.560
Yeah, like the world is that you want to know how to work best with me.
00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:15.439
You know me, but I think when you do a personality test, like I said, it's an objective view, and you can really see categories of how to work best with someone.
00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:26.480
So thank you for being so self-aware and a great partner for wanting to say, How can I best show up for my shell in the way that she likes to work?
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:30.319
So that choice thing, I was like, don't be giving me homework.
00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:31.600
Autonomy.
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:33.759
I love that just I love autonomy.
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:42.559
I want to do it on my own terms, but I appreciate that you're you wanting to know me, and I will do it by the way, um, because it's one that you probably can read best.
00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:44.879
So, anyway, tell me a little bit more about choice.
00:08:45.200 --> 00:09:00.639
Yeah, so I just want to piggyback on that a little bit, but um it I think about even this season as we've interviewed guests, we have this process we go through where we're getting to know them, understanding who they are, doing the research.
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:07.840
And I would say that part of um I'll there's this strength that I have in being curious.
00:09:08.399 --> 00:09:14.080
Being curious is can take you very far in in your relationships.
00:09:14.159 --> 00:09:25.200
And so I think sometimes when you're working so closely with someone as you and I do, um, on our platform, we think that, oh, well, we we already know each other, let's just keep rolling.
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:38.639
So part of my wanting to um be sharper is like I can take this into the same uh frame of mind as I do with our guests, I do all this research, but they come on it on a show and then they move on.
00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:46.720
I mean, we always say connected, yeah, but you're someone I work with all the time, you know, you know, in our partnership.
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:58.399
And so why not take a step back and be like, let me get to know my shell a little deeper and um and to make sure I take advantage of whatever insights I draw.
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:14.480
So I just want to say that working that muscle of information and prep, you know, doing a whole bunch of study is not my in fact, I learned about this with mics and trying to get lighting right.
00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:15.600
So I love you for that.
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:21.120
Yeah, so just so you know how my shell is, she the one that then did the run of show, went over the notes.
00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:27.919
We then had uh a couple preps, she's looking at things, and I'm like, okay, it's 20 minutes before go time.
00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:29.600
What are what are we talking about?
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:31.519
So then you know what that does?
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.279
I love that you said this live, so we're we're workshopping this live.
00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:40.799
Um then her asking me all these things right before, it throws me off.
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:47.360
So before you even get my personality test, you don't throw me off my kilter because that throws me off.
00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:50.080
So then I gotta readjust my whole energy.
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:52.480
And by the way, we did zero prep for today.
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:57.919
So if it comes off of a hot ass mess, I call it, I call it three percent, I say 35%.
00:10:58.240 --> 00:10:59.039
We did 35%.
00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:00.480
We did do 35%.
00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:06.399
We like we gotta be on at nine and make sure your stuff is together.
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:09.840
And I didn't have a stand for my ghetto mic situation.
00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:10.559
Here it is.
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:12.879
Um I got a ghetto mic too.
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:14.720
My mic is in a coffee cup right now.
00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:16.240
It works, it's working.
00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:19.360
I didn't have a body together though.
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:20.480
We're gonna get it together.
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:29.440
So our assistant got the cord at I was like, Can you just order so I can just pick it up at Best Buy?
00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:30.720
She did an amazing job.
00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:36.559
Listen, we don't run this by ourselves, we have a uh small crew, very small.
00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:38.240
It's on a huge string budget.
00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:42.399
So if you want to sponsor the we have range, uh I'm trying to tell you.
00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:46.879
I'm trying to tell you, and I can't, and we we do have our first sponsorship.
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:47.759
I'll mention it here.
00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:48.879
Oh, yeah, mention it.
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:50.240
I'm very excited about this.
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:52.320
Yes, so it's Scale X.
00:11:52.720 --> 00:12:04.960
Okay, so as uh Michelle and I continue to run many different work streams, um my I have a company I started that I'm really excited about, uh Scale X.
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:12.159
It's an executive assistant outsourcing company and founded uh was me and my co-founder.
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:17.600
And what I learned that in business, I learned that this is in life, personally and professionally.
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:35.200
If you don't delegate work, if you don't delegate, like I recognize I would not be where I'm at in career, personally, professionally, doing all the things, serial entrepreneur, which by the way, I embrace a lot of people say I can have a job and that's it.
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:40.080
Or I might be able to do a job and a podcast and that's it, you know.
00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:44.240
But when you one of the things I read, first of all, let me just say that.
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:46.559
I speaking of books, and we're gonna come back to toys.
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:48.559
Yeah, it's this is all related.
00:12:48.720 --> 00:13:00.399
I read a book called This The Cell by Frederick Eklund, and he's one of the most successful real estate uh brokers that built his career out of Manhattan and New York.
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:02.320
Very, very competitive environment.
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:16.000
But as I read his book, before I could uh, you know, even have formal training and coaching and things like that, I just said, let me pick up a book and find out what it takes to be at the top of your game selling billions of dollars in real estate.
00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:25.600
And what he said is as he grew in career, every time he made a little bit more money, he would take that money and invest in delegating.
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:42.240
So he talked about house cleaning, he talked about washing cars, like instead of you know going somewhere to get car washed, having someone come to you, he talked about um laundry and laundry being the barrier because you could be spending that time on production.
00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:43.919
Doing something else, yeah.
00:13:44.159 --> 00:13:45.200
Doing something else.
00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:56.320
So one thing that has just really led to my success is having an executive assistant that I delegate a lot of work.
00:13:56.399 --> 00:14:01.279
And in the world of AI, someone might be like, oh, I just have an AI agent bought for that.
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:04.000
Some people do, because the whole world is not caught up.
00:14:04.159 --> 00:14:19.840
But there's something about what I still believe will hold true for as long as I'm alive and in career and outsourcing is that it is human, the human component that we have who supports us powered by technology.
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:30.559
And so, um, so with my show and I working with a lot of executives who are gonna continue to have a lot of range at different parts of their career.
00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:33.679
I got inspired by just thinking, who am I?
00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:34.960
What built my career?
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:38.639
What have I done to really lead to success?
00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:41.440
And that when it came to having an executive assistant.
00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:43.919
And I So it's been impactful for you.
00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:51.600
It's been it's been it's it's changed the landscape of my career and my ability to do a lot and to do more.
00:14:51.840 --> 00:15:07.759
And when I say that, um, we we say um when I say that, it allows me to even have more time with my family, to do things that I really care about, to schedule those personal dinners, you know, with friends and things like that.
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:13.360
So it's it's so much more than just having um an assistant, it really helps.
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:14.480
Um, it really helps.
00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:22.159
So I'm glad to have Skill X sponsoring uh We Have Range and getting back to the point, and then I'll roll it in.
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:22.720
Choice.
00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:24.480
Reel it in quick, lady.
00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:25.039
Come on.
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:26.240
Choice.
00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:40.480
So when you have Michelle's uh she she's uh our run of show queen, but when it when it comes to uh success and building entrepreneurial endeavors, um, I do it, I try to think why am I doing it?
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:48.720
I'm doing it because I want to have choice, I want to have freedom, I want to wake up days into the future and decide, you know what?
00:15:48.879 --> 00:15:55.919
It's a Tuesday, I'm sitting by the pool today because nobody is telling me where I need to show up or where I have to be.
00:15:56.080 --> 00:16:02.320
So choice really resonates with me and it honestly is is is my motivation in all things.
00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:04.639
Oh, what about for you, Michelle?
00:16:05.039 --> 00:16:09.519
What which one of these sevens which one of those words stood out to you?
00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:11.679
Well, you already know choice.
00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:14.000
Um I love autonomy.
00:16:14.080 --> 00:16:27.600
I probably give people sometimes way too much autonomy um because when things go off the rail, we actually experience that in our business a little bit, giving people autonomy and them not really taking the autonomy and feeling empowered.
00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:30.879
I like autonomy because I like to empower people.
00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:36.159
And um when you think about autonomy, that's exactly what you're doing.
00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:39.200
You're empowering people to take their own direction, right?
00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:47.360
And so my leadership style and the way I lead my life is do what do what you need to do, but here's the end result that we need to get to.
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:56.000
I don't I don't have time to tell you how to get there, but here's what I need to get to A, and you need to figure out how to get us there.
00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:00.000
Um, so choice definitely resonates, but you know me.
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:02.080
Uh community.
00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:04.720
I am community queen.
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:07.599
I love having a village of people.
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:18.319
Um, I could have not done anything, and it kind of goes back to that, you know, having assistance and delegating, you have a community of people that's helping you get to the place that you're at.
00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:21.920
And I love when people uh say, Well, I got here on my own.
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:22.960
No, you no, you didn't.
00:17:23.119 --> 00:17:23.599
No, you didn't.
00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:26.640
No one gets anywhere by themselves.
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:39.599
And so when you don't give credit to the team, when you don't give credit to the people who have empowered you and elevated you to get to A, it shows a bit of selfishness, in my opinion.
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:43.519
And um, you have to give credit to people around you.
00:17:43.680 --> 00:17:56.000
Um, and I know that my shell is not my shell without my amazing network of people um to help me get here and in basically uh helping me elevate to the space.
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:59.039
So I would let's expand on that a little bit.
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:11.279
As a certified coach, how do you what perspective do you bring um with from a coaching perspective when it when it took when related to getting people and moving people to where they are?
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.759
Because one of the things we've talked about is it still has to start with the person.
00:18:16.079 --> 00:18:17.359
Still has to start with the person.
00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:18.559
I love that you say that.
00:18:18.720 --> 00:18:26.079
Um, as you know, we started Range Exchange, and that's our monthly group coaching, and I do 101 coaching as well.
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:34.319
But the monthly group coaching, one of the central things that we said to them, listen, uh this is your you make the choice.
00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:35.920
The choice is yours.
00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:44.640
So we you tell us the goals, we help hold you accountable, but you um create all of your accountability metrics.
00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:50.000
So if you say, um, I always use the gym because it's uh one that most people relate to.
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:52.160
They either lean in or they lean out.
00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:55.279
And most times people are leaning in and out at various times.
00:18:55.440 --> 00:18:58.480
But if you say, I want to lose 10 pounds, we say, okay, how do you get there?
00:18:58.640 --> 00:19:01.119
And he's like, Well, I need to go to the gym.
00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:02.160
I want to eat better.
00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:05.039
Okay, what can you commit to to getting to the gym?
00:19:05.279 --> 00:19:10.720
So we always put it back on the person to make the choice.
00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:13.680
Um, and so that goes back to the autonomy.
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:16.880
You have the autonomy to create your goal.
00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:22.480
Um, you also have the autonomy to create the metrics of getting there.
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:26.799
We're just gonna hold you accountable to the thing that you say that you really want.
00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:28.480
Um, oh, shout out to Erica.
00:19:28.559 --> 00:19:30.000
I was just looking at my nails in the camera.
00:19:30.079 --> 00:19:30.640
They look really good.
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:32.160
Erica, love you.
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.559
Um mine needs to get done.
00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:37.519
We'll keep them hands down, hands on the knees, hands.
00:19:39.680 --> 00:19:45.519
But you know, not to digress, but seriously, it's really about we're empowering them to make the choice.
00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:48.960
And so um, I didn't even think about it until you just said it.
00:19:49.039 --> 00:19:59.599
Um, and that's probably why I love choice so much, because I can't blame someone for uh not being successful at something, right?
00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:04.319
I either get out the bed and move and make things happen or I don't.
00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:04.960
Yeah.
00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:08.880
And I realize, especially you and I, uh I know how we are.
00:20:08.960 --> 00:20:11.359
We're we love community and we love people.
00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:22.000
And I myself am guilty of being like, I just want to will people into doing, you know, I want people to experience a lot of the freedoms and choice that I have in life.
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:26.799
And maybe if I just tell them to do the thing, they'll get to doing the thing, you know.
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:28.720
Oh, yeah.
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:29.759
Can I relate to it?
00:20:29.839 --> 00:20:34.000
Um, like even now, I need to get I need to get back on my own uh fit journey.
00:20:34.160 --> 00:20:38.799
Um, I'm I'm in a leaning out period and I need to uh start leaning back in.
00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:52.960
But I'm just glad you uh bring that to the attention that it still has to start with um first setting a goal, start with you, and then if you don't get there, who do you have to look at other than the person in the mirror?
00:20:53.279 --> 00:20:53.759
All right.
00:20:54.000 --> 00:20:55.839
So um thank you for sharing that.
00:20:55.920 --> 00:21:04.960
I'm hopefully that will help somebody who's listening to this because I think a lot more people need to make choice and not blame other people for why it's not working for them.
00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:08.480
And I also hate that be accountable for the things that's not working for you.
00:21:08.640 --> 00:21:14.640
It's not the man, it's not the, you know, when I say the man, people who work in corporate, it was like, oh, I'm being held down.
00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:20.880
I done bust through all kinds of doors and keep busting through the doors, and no one tells me what I can't do.
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:26.240
Um, I figure out how to work through the systems and get what I want.
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:35.599
And I think also that's one of the things that through our coaching and uh that we really are trying to teach people that there's a method of how to do corporate.
00:21:35.759 --> 00:21:38.720
If you want to be in corporate, there's a way to navigate corporate.
00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:43.519
And I think some people just don't corporate well, they do not corporate well.
00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:48.880
And you talk about busting down barriers and doors, Michelle.
00:21:49.200 --> 00:21:59.680
And we can we can overlay that in a lot of ways as being women, um, as being women of color, as being in a very old industry where we be.
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:02.400
Began our careers and have flourish in our careers.
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:02.720
Yeah.
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:06.160
What you when you say that right now, it it resonates with me.
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:10.400
With I say no is the beginning of the conversation.
00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:14.160
No is how do I turn that to yes?
00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:19.200
No, I'm glad I hear no because that just means I now need to turn another way.
00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:23.519
I now I need to find another path to getting to the yes.
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:25.119
I have experienced that with you.
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:26.079
I can tell you something.
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:30.319
You're like, but now I was like, what part of the first thing did you not hear?
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:34.160
And you're like, but I think that we know, and you'll keep going.
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:38.720
And somehow eventually, actually doing the podcast.
00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:41.359
You saying, I want to do a podcast.
00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.759
I was like, yeah, we're gonna do our coaching, we're gonna scale it, we're gonna do our sales training.
00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:47.039
Like, that was my focus.
00:22:47.200 --> 00:22:48.319
I always said we should do a podcast.
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:51.680
I was like, Oh, let's do audio, and you're like, No, no, no, we should do video.
00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:55.920
Yeah, one of the things of all beautiful you are.
00:22:56.319 --> 00:22:57.359
Oh, well, thank you.
00:22:57.519 --> 00:22:58.240
You as well.
00:22:58.799 --> 00:23:05.119
Um, one of the things that we're gonna talk about is the central theme of season one, and it was all about pivoting.
00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:15.839
We did a lot of pivots, we pivoted along the way, and I think one of the things that people need to understand is you need to identify when it's time to pivot.
00:23:15.920 --> 00:23:22.160
And we'll talk a little bit more about what's coming in season two, but let's get into the season one review.
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:22.720
Okay.
00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:26.400
Um we're gonna start with Miss Sylvia K.
00:23:26.559 --> 00:23:27.440
Austin.
00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:29.519
I love Sylvia.
00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:32.160
So let's see this, let's see this short.
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:32.799
Tradition.
00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:35.119
What I call peer pressure from dead people, right?
00:23:35.200 --> 00:23:36.400
I am just at a space.
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:39.440
Peer pressure from the ancestors.
00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:41.440
I have never heard that before.
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:43.839
We can't just roll past that tradition.
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:46.160
Tradition is peer pressure from dead people.
00:23:48.160 --> 00:23:48.319
Yes.
00:23:48.960 --> 00:23:49.680
That's fams.
00:23:49.920 --> 00:23:50.720
That's actually fam.
00:23:51.440 --> 00:23:52.319
That is real.
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:53.519
That's a bar right there.
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:54.480
That is a bar.
00:23:54.640 --> 00:23:54.799
It is.
00:23:55.119 --> 00:24:01.200
I'm just at an age where I am asking myself, does this work for me?
00:24:01.519 --> 00:24:04.960
Does this work for the next iteration of who I'm becoming?
00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:07.119
Podcast that I love, it's called Hidden Brain.
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:09.519
They have this one episode about groupthink.
00:24:09.680 --> 00:24:16.720
And when you move from the group because it's something that you're realigning, that this is exactly what you're talking about.
00:24:16.880 --> 00:24:17.119
Yes.
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:20.559
I'm moving from the group to do the thing that I want to do.
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:21.200
Yes.
00:24:21.440 --> 00:24:23.440
And you will get kicked out of the group.
00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:23.920
Yes.
00:24:24.000 --> 00:24:25.119
And I'm fine with it.
00:24:25.359 --> 00:24:26.319
And I'm fine with it.
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:26.880
I am fine.
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:28.880
And I'm fine with it.
00:24:30.319 --> 00:24:38.400
I don't want to be a part of the group if that means I'm growing, if that means I'm doing what I want to do, choice comes up again.
00:24:39.279 --> 00:24:39.920
Choice.
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:42.160
So oh my gosh.
00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:52.160
First of all, uh, I I've every time I see that clip and I hear that, yeah, Michelle, and I shout out to Sylvia for that line.
00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:57.119
That is when I went from I was already falling in love with podcasting.
00:24:58.079 --> 00:25:05.039
That nugget, I feel like I fell like oh head over heels, I'm married to this till I die.
00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:14.480
Like that, I it was so profound to think about the way we live life in tradition.
00:25:14.640 --> 00:25:18.160
And so, Michelle, I'll ask you what resonated with you.
00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:21.599
Think of all the traditions that you were following or have followed.
00:25:21.759 --> 00:25:27.119
What resonated with you when you first heard my first of all, your laugh was hilarious.
00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:32.720
You were like, wait, you were laughing, and I was just rolling right past that.
00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:40.400
Because you were in the talk about something, and she pops out with that, and we're like, wait, we gotta go back to that.
00:25:40.640 --> 00:25:40.960
Right.
00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:47.920
Um, well, so much of Sylvia's uh conversation with us resonated and it continued through dinner.
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:49.200
We had such an epic dinner.
00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:50.720
I think we went to what did we go?
00:25:50.880 --> 00:25:51.759
Beauty and Essex?
00:25:52.000 --> 00:25:52.880
Yeah, I love it.
00:25:53.119 --> 00:25:56.160
Beauty and Essex for dinner, very unique place in Vegas, yeah.
00:25:56.240 --> 00:26:04.079
And it just really, I love her because one, we identify with her because she is an uh insurance professional.
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:12.079
Yeah, and um she's so honest and authentic.
00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:19.279
And I love that because it boosted, I'm we'll be honest.
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:42.160
It when I first started hearing her on uh on Sirius XM, her honesty and how she came out the gate and being so informed about business, but being so unapologetically a black woman in not masking or code switching, it just it empowered me uh to really lean into that.
00:26:42.240 --> 00:26:45.359
And I had met her I think seven years ago.
00:26:45.519 --> 00:26:49.119
Um, we started communicating and just formed this beautiful relationship.
00:26:49.279 --> 00:27:09.039
But when she talked about that um the um peer pressure from dead people, everything, not everything about my upbringing that I didn't bring into my adulthood, but a lot of things like having to go to church every Sunday in order to be aligned spiritually with something higher than me.
00:27:09.519 --> 00:27:19.839
Such a false narrative because I know people who go to church every Sunday and probably have never done something for someone else, you know, in service of other people.
00:27:19.920 --> 00:27:28.799
And that's the central thing that I took away from um growing up in the church is we are meant to service other people.
00:27:28.880 --> 00:27:31.039
And I consider myself a servant leader.
00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:41.119
Um, it's one of the central things uh that is so ingrained in me, but also um something I live by, and I taught my daughter that like Christmas.
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.200
Um we would go to in Jersey City.
00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:51.200
Well, we went to a homeless shelter, um, a women's um shelter in Hoboken, and we would have dinner with them.
00:27:51.279 --> 00:28:05.599
Like we we had a we set our own traditions, and I remember my daughter recently reflecting on that, saying how much she appreciated not doing the thousands of gifts and you know what other people do, and we just set our own um tradition.
00:28:05.759 --> 00:28:06.240
What about you?
00:28:06.319 --> 00:28:09.359
What resonated for you from Sylvia's conversation?
00:28:09.599 --> 00:28:11.119
Uh it's just what she said.
00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:14.000
I it's the choice factor, right?
00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:19.599
So I love freedom of just deciding whatever I want to do for the year.
00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:43.920
And I'll tell you this the first um year I met Dion, who's my husband, um we were just in a first of all, we were falling so in love, we were both taking inventory of the people in our lives and the pressures we were experiencing from our respective friends, families, foes, and phonies.
00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:47.519
I mean, you have a little bit of everything in life, all in the mix.
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:48.559
We need them all.
00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:49.200
Uh-huh.
00:28:49.279 --> 00:28:51.200
Listen, we got them all and the haters too.
00:28:51.279 --> 00:28:52.960
I appreciate I appreciate it all.
00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:55.200
Okay, it teaches me a lot.
00:28:55.519 --> 00:29:02.880
But that first year we were together, we both decided we're gonna go the whole year and we're not doing one holiday.
00:29:03.119 --> 00:29:11.440
We ain't we canceling Christmas, we canceling Halloween, don't tell me about no goddamn, I don't want to hear about St.
00:29:11.599 --> 00:29:12.640
Patty's Day.
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:19.599
No, I don't care that it's single de Mayo, all the other dead presidents that we are celebrating.
00:29:20.240 --> 00:29:22.319
Talk about peer pressure from dead people.
00:29:22.640 --> 00:29:32.960
Listen, there, I'm sure there's a lot of reason why, and I love the time off work that people get associated and the time to regroup, but that's what we made it about.
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:40.240
Like, it's not to say that holidays aren't fun and those traditions aren't cool, and I get why they've carried on for centuries.
00:29:40.480 --> 00:29:40.880
Yep.
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:47.440
But for us that year, we just moved through the days at the beat of our own drum.
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:54.400
We would be people be running around Christmas shopping, and Deion would be like, babe, you want to go to Happy Hours somewhere?
00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:57.759
Like, we did not care what the world was doing.
00:29:58.000 --> 00:30:04.079
When I talk about setting myself free, and that yeah, so I learned a lot.
00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:20.880
Um, I learned a lot from from that experience, and it made me realize like, oh shoot, there's there's something incredible to just deciding I'm gonna do what the hell I want this year or this week or this month or whatever career I'm in or what thing I'm starting.
00:30:21.119 --> 00:30:24.799
So I would just say to you, my show, you you said we relate to Sylvia.
00:30:24.880 --> 00:30:25.119
We do.
00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:29.279
Sylvia's in insurance, I'm in the commercial business insurance world.
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:33.279
See Sylvia's in the private client um insurance world, lots of influence.
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:34.480
Or she does commercial too.
00:30:34.559 --> 00:30:36.960
She does commercial and commercial as well.
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:50.240
And um, but the one thing that resonated with me about Sylvia is not only was she it is she rock star in our very vast trillion dollar industry, but she too had a podcast.
00:30:50.559 --> 00:30:55.680
She also is an entrepreneur, so she also started her own business.
00:30:55.920 --> 00:30:58.480
So she is she has range.
00:30:58.640 --> 00:30:58.960
Okay.
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:00.000
Yeah, range.
00:31:00.160 --> 00:31:08.960
And by the way, she announced on the show that she is starting a new podcast with her son, talking about the parent relationship, which is so needed.
00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:23.279
I think, even as I navigate my daughter, um, who's 28, and navigating being an advisor versus parenting, you you really shift into a different gear when you have adult kids, and you'll you will experience that.
00:31:23.440 --> 00:31:32.079
And the one thing that I feel like we benefit from each other is some things I've gone through, other things you're going through, and I can learn from you.
00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:33.359
We learn from each other so well.
00:31:33.519 --> 00:31:35.119
So I really appreciate that.
00:31:35.359 --> 00:31:41.599
All right, uh, we we're not reviewing every single show, but we're we're kind of doing some highlights of a few.
00:31:41.759 --> 00:31:43.759
Unless we want to do a version two of this.
00:31:43.839 --> 00:31:50.240
This is uh the next one that we we're gonna talk about, Chris and Renee.
00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:52.480
I just love, I simply love them.
00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:54.240
They just had a new baby girl.
00:31:54.400 --> 00:32:00.640
Yeah, and let's look at what they this clip from them and we can talk about what resonated for us.
00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:01.279
Okay.
00:32:03.039 --> 00:32:06.079
Um, we we we talk shit and we have brains.
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:07.440
We won't be on it.
00:32:07.599 --> 00:32:09.039
Well, I was fired for no reason.
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:09.519
How about that?
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:10.559
Fired for no reason.
00:32:10.799 --> 00:32:11.200
That part.
00:32:11.440 --> 00:32:14.079
That part, yes, y'all deserved better.
00:32:14.319 --> 00:32:24.720
And so in 2021, as I was growing on social media on my own, on TikTok, um, I was going live a lot on TikTok, so I had about a hundred thousand followers on TikTok.
00:32:25.039 --> 00:32:28.960
I was the the oldest one there, but the youngest one at heart.
00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:33.440
So I'm creating funny videos, I'm doing dance stuff, and all my coworkers are like, There goes Renee.
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:39.440
Like this is what we're doing, all right?
00:32:39.599 --> 00:32:44.559
And so that's how I was able to grow who I was because people didn't want to see a boring news anchor.
00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:50.319
They didn't want to see another news anchor giving news that triggered them.
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:52.720
They wanted to see someone with a with a personality.
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:56.559
More than a title, all right, more than a title.
00:32:56.720 --> 00:32:59.680
Power elevate and expand is our messy.
00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:01.039
Yeah, yeah.
00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:02.240
I love the first part.
00:33:02.480 --> 00:33:04.480
I need to see that head roll again.
00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:05.920
I know.
00:33:06.319 --> 00:33:08.240
Jimmy is so cute, they are so cute.
00:33:08.319 --> 00:33:10.960
So we didn't have Chris in that clip, but Chris is also there.
00:33:11.200 --> 00:33:16.720
He is a Las Vegas um high-end real estate um agent.
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:21.839
Um, and in his own right, together they create amazing content.
00:33:22.079 --> 00:33:25.519
Content, and they've moved into an era of family content now.
00:33:25.599 --> 00:33:30.960
Yeah, we're talking all about being new parents, they're sharing the struggle.
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:36.079
But one of my favorites lately that I've seen is how involved Chris is.
00:33:36.480 --> 00:33:42.559
He's always showing how he has the baby and Renee is going on girls' night, she's out doing her thing.
00:33:42.720 --> 00:33:43.519
I love it.
00:33:43.680 --> 00:33:46.000
I love the balance of it all.
00:33:46.240 --> 00:33:50.720
But I I know this is your real estate agent, so I know you're very close to him.
00:33:50.799 --> 00:33:54.079
And right now, you you got a how you get a house being built.
00:33:54.160 --> 00:33:55.119
But tell me more.
00:33:56.880 --> 00:34:00.079
So, so Chris, um, so first of all, he's great.
00:34:00.319 --> 00:34:04.079
Lost age realtor, as you uh mentioned.
00:34:04.319 --> 00:34:10.320
But one of the things I again, Michelle, this is why this podcasting season has been so profound for me.
00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:15.440
Chris, as we're getting to get into the space, Chris said something on set.
00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:24.880
He goes, the first thing I'll tell people when you're putting yourself out there and you're putting your brand out there is you look how you look, you sound how you sound, get over it.
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:25.440
Yeah.
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:32.000
And I was like, the fact that I still remember, like on set, when again, just these nuggets that we've learned.
00:34:32.159 --> 00:34:48.320
And so, um, so I just really uh appreciate their contribution and also what I see on their platform versus uh, of course, Chris has a very strong real estate focused platform, and that's one part of his range.
00:34:48.559 --> 00:34:54.320
The family content is another part of his range, um, and they're both so professionally done.
00:34:54.480 --> 00:35:01.679
But what resonates with me and why I even um we'll talk about how I how I found and met Chris was through his content.
00:35:01.840 --> 00:35:10.480
Yeah, so the power of social media and Michelle hate social media, social media.
00:35:10.639 --> 00:35:14.719
My when we started this my shell was like, she hates it.
00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:15.760
She hates it.
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:19.760
She's like, wait, we gotta post how often we need to put our content out.
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:23.440
How often you be lucky if you get something from me once a month.
00:35:23.760 --> 00:35:27.280
Listen, let me just tell you that shit ain't changed.
00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:32.960
I'm not it's not that I'm like this super private person, right?
00:35:33.199 --> 00:35:35.440
But listen, it's a privilege to experience me.
00:35:35.519 --> 00:35:36.000
Excuse me.
00:35:36.320 --> 00:35:39.199
Um, hold on, where's my face?
00:35:39.360 --> 00:35:40.719
That part, that part.
00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:51.199
So for me, I don't love having people come into my space because I do feel like everybody doesn't deserve access to me.
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:52.559
You know, I say that all the time.
00:35:52.719 --> 00:35:55.760
And I have had to learn that we're gonna have a clip, I think, with Morel.
00:35:56.000 --> 00:36:05.280
And I don't know if it's talking about accent, but we talked a lot with him about how he had to remove access and not and learn not to give everybody access.
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:24.880
And so for me, it's like to experience me, and I listen, this is not me being super cocky, but I have learned that people want to align with you because you may have a brand, they want to align with you for various reasons, whatever those reasons are, and you have to sniff out authenticity.
00:36:25.039 --> 00:36:27.840
Who's been authentic, who's adding to your life?
00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:33.119
And if I find a hint of you subtracting from my life, bye-bye, you got to go.
00:36:33.280 --> 00:36:34.559
You gotta go.
00:36:35.039 --> 00:36:44.880
And I what I really love about their content, and something uh we chatted with Renee about, yeah, she's like, Sometimes I show up and you get no makeup, honey.
00:36:45.119 --> 00:36:45.599
This is me.
00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:46.800
I hate to break it to you.
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:49.199
We were born without lashes.
00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:56.320
How many videos did I do in our content where it was like me walking the dog or me like, I gotta get this out?
00:36:56.559 --> 00:36:57.280
I love it.
00:36:57.440 --> 00:36:59.840
I I don't do makeup in my normal day.
00:36:59.920 --> 00:37:03.280
Today I put a little bit of a face on, but by the way, I'm going to the gym after this.
00:37:03.440 --> 00:37:05.920
I got this cute little cover-up on that I got from Portugal.
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:06.400
I love it.
00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:08.800
And I have first of all, what about that lip?
00:37:08.960 --> 00:37:10.320
This lip color is smashing.
00:37:10.559 --> 00:37:12.000
You know I love a good lip.
00:37:12.079 --> 00:37:12.239
What?
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:13.360
Who where's that lip?
00:37:13.440 --> 00:37:14.559
You were supposed to send it to me.
00:37:14.639 --> 00:37:15.760
Where'd you get that lip from?
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:17.119
Oh, this one I did.
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:19.760
This one is um Pat McGraw.
00:37:20.159 --> 00:37:21.039
Pat McGrath.
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:22.480
Yeah, Pat McGrath.
00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:25.039
Um, I don't know the color, but I'll tell you color.
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:26.480
I thought I sent you this one, I thought.
00:37:26.639 --> 00:37:26.800
Okay.
00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:28.159
You know what it is?
00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:28.880
Here's the thing.
00:37:28.960 --> 00:37:32.000
This is why Avery has an assistant because he needs this.
00:37:32.559 --> 00:37:35.360
Can you check my text for the thing that Michelle said to me?
00:37:36.079 --> 00:37:36.559
Exactly.
00:37:36.719 --> 00:37:38.400
So you need to text Trish.
00:37:38.800 --> 00:37:42.000
Uh Trish keeps our lives in check.
00:37:42.079 --> 00:37:42.480
She is amazing.
00:37:42.559 --> 00:37:43.440
Oh, she's an amazing.
00:37:44.880 --> 00:37:46.000
Like, shout out to Trish.
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:50.880
I I want her to give her her flowers because she has been absolutely amazing.
00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:56.480
And I wouldn't have this mic hooked up if she didn't always go around where I needed the cord.
00:37:56.639 --> 00:37:59.679
She found she's like, and this Best Buy is near you and it's waiting for you.
00:37:59.840 --> 00:38:01.440
Listen, life changing.
00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:04.239
Personal assistance are everything.
00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:08.000
We won skelet, and they are season one.
00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:10.559
Um and season sponsors.
00:38:11.840 --> 00:38:16.559
And we want and listen, my shell or my show and I, first of all, we believe in us.
00:38:16.719 --> 00:38:16.880
Yeah.
00:38:17.119 --> 00:38:21.920
We trust in our platform and our ability to make this everything that it's going to be.
00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:36.159
And we welcome brand sponsors, beauty sponsors, business sponsors, as we're talking to a lot of executives, to grow our platform and tell the stories of everyday people and show something different.
00:38:36.400 --> 00:38:38.559
Show something different on our platform.
00:38:38.880 --> 00:38:41.199
And yeah, so I'm gonna get in.
00:38:41.280 --> 00:38:44.880
We're we're gonna kind of get into I know because I know we talked about this a lot.
00:38:45.039 --> 00:38:46.719
People keep asking us, why are you doing this?
00:38:46.800 --> 00:38:47.679
Why do you decide to do this?
00:38:47.760 --> 00:38:52.880
So we'll get into that a little bit, but let's get into CJ's um, this is I think clip number three.
00:38:53.119 --> 00:38:55.199
CJ, one of our favorite guests.
00:38:55.440 --> 00:38:56.320
I love CJ.
00:38:56.639 --> 00:39:06.000
Yeah, we had a lot of yeah, this is probably one of our biggest, um, one of the greatest impressions um for our audience.
00:39:06.159 --> 00:39:07.039
We got a lot of feedback.
00:39:07.119 --> 00:39:09.199
So let's see what CJ had to say.
00:39:11.039 --> 00:39:16.079
Asking yourself, how can my success benefit a million people?
00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:18.719
Including people that haven't even been born yet.
00:39:19.199 --> 00:39:22.400
Then you would end up being a lot like me when I was much younger.
00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:25.840
I I was just so focused on what I can do right now.
00:39:26.159 --> 00:39:28.880
I wasn't focusing on being 50.
00:39:28.960 --> 00:39:41.280
And even when I turned 50, like one of the first things that I thought about when I woke up the morning that I turned 50, I thought about both of my grandmothers that lived to 95, and then I just started thinking to myself, you know what, I I want to live to 100.
00:39:41.440 --> 00:39:47.199
Like if they could live to 95, so if if I'm gonna live to 100, that's gonna take money.
00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:50.880
Yeah, so I've got to be making good decisions now.
00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:56.320
We have how long do you want to live to Ivory?
00:39:56.960 --> 00:39:59.760
Like 500 years or something like that?
00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:11.440
And I'm hoping I can see into the future.
00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:18.880
But my grandparents have lived well into their 90s, so I'll take a I'll be like CJ set to side time.
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:20.880
Say, I want to be that what's that?
00:40:20.960 --> 00:40:21.840
A centenian?
00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:22.559
Is that what they call it?
00:40:22.960 --> 00:40:23.519
Centurion.
00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:24.800
I think it's Centurion, is it?
00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:26.159
Don't ask, don't give me line.
00:40:26.239 --> 00:40:29.440
It's okay, to at least 100.
00:40:29.679 --> 00:40:31.440
Um, but I love CJ.
00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:38.239
So, my show, I I see I can't, it's hard to choose what guest we just really fall in love with.
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:44.239
I really love them all, I have to tell you, but I'm a little biased because Courtney and I grew up together.
00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:49.840
Um, I think I've known Courtney since seventh grade.
00:40:50.079 --> 00:40:50.320
Yeah.
00:40:50.480 --> 00:40:53.199
Uh, so I've known him a really long time.
00:40:53.440 --> 00:40:56.480
Um my stepfather coached him baseball.
00:40:56.800 --> 00:41:00.079
Um, and he's such an amazing human.
00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:02.559
He is, I just saw something recently.
00:41:02.719 --> 00:41:14.400
He and his wife Kelly were speaking to the Georgia House Senate, I believe, and they were talking about they created youth um uh youth sports day.
00:41:14.639 --> 00:41:17.119
It's yeah, it's been written into like did you see that clip?
00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:19.119
No, I didn't see it, but in Atlanta.
00:41:19.440 --> 00:41:29.920
In Atlanta, he lives in Atlanta, so I thought and they were in front of the Georgia's leg Georgia legislation, and I really uh am so proud of him.
00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:35.119
And so I'm a little bit biased for sure, but he's one of the favorite guests.
00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:51.760
We have many, but I will say one of the things that resonated uh with me in his uh show was just how intentional he is, like intentionally training for a year, writing his book, Life is a Marathon Built on Sprints.
00:41:51.920 --> 00:41:54.639
Absolutely, you have to go get it, audience.
00:41:54.719 --> 00:41:58.559
If you have not read Courtney's book, I highly recommend it.
00:41:58.719 --> 00:42:02.159
He has, I think, two other books, and I think he said he's writing a fourth.
00:42:02.239 --> 00:42:13.920
But just how intentional he was about training for the marathon and journaling and all the life lessons, and we're gonna we keep talking about all the lessons we've learned over season one professionally and personally.
00:42:14.159 --> 00:42:22.239
But um, what was one thing from his conversation that just was like, ooh, I have a moment for you?
00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:30.800
I would say um, I even in that clip we just watched Courtney CJ, CJ.
00:42:31.119 --> 00:42:33.119
You say Courtney, calling your childhood name.
00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:51.199
But CJ really talking about looking into the future, pulling together the decisions that you make now absolutely change how you're going to be showing up 10 years from now, 20 years from now, and the impact you're gonna make.
00:42:51.360 --> 00:42:59.360
Yeah, like he said, if you live to be 100, what are you are you able to stretch out all the resources you got right now to live to 100?
00:42:59.679 --> 00:43:15.119
And not just from a money earning uh capacity, because Michelle know I like to talk about the Benjamins and get into the bag on our platform, giving people tools, techniques that we've used to have decorated careers and also be entrepreneurs.
00:43:15.280 --> 00:43:17.760
That takes a monetary engine.
00:43:18.079 --> 00:43:27.039
And so uh what resonated with me was Courtney really laying that out, but also talking about having an impact at the same time.
00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:37.119
And he was talking about with what he's doing with the youth out of Atlanta, what he's doing with young African-American boys in in the baseball um sporting industry in Atlanta.
00:43:37.280 --> 00:44:03.519
And then I'll say, shout out to CJ because he gave us an exclusive that he plans to run for office in Georgia, and I don't care what your politics say win, but we did say that we say when, but he's he let us know that he he has those aspirations, and I just think I don't care again, whatever side of the political house you're On someone who is willing to be of service to others.
00:44:03.679 --> 00:44:04.159
Yep.
00:44:04.480 --> 00:44:07.440
Is something that resonates with us here at We Have Range.
00:44:07.599 --> 00:44:11.119
And a sacrifice because you're putting talk about not wanting to be public.
00:44:11.280 --> 00:44:17.039
Like I had talked about wanting to run like for city council or school board because I'm super passionate about education.
00:44:17.199 --> 00:44:22.079
And it's generally a bunch of old ass people who sit on the school board who really don't care about education.
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:23.920
I need to get off like today.
00:44:24.159 --> 00:44:25.599
Yeah, like today.
00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:30.239
Um you have to put your entire life on Front Street, right?
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:33.679
And so I love that he's already sh talking his own narrative.
00:44:33.840 --> 00:44:36.960
And during that conversation, he's like, I wasn't always a good person.
00:44:37.199 --> 00:44:39.360
Listen, we all have grown.
00:44:39.519 --> 00:44:50.159
And for the person who says they haven't done anything that may not be the shining thing that you want on the front page of news, um, they're lying because we all grow.
00:44:50.400 --> 00:45:03.039
We got to give people, I always talk about giving people grace, um, but that's the ultimate grace to say, listen, who you were at 18, 25, 35 surely should not be who you are at 50.
00:45:03.199 --> 00:45:07.039
And I love uh his level of self-awareness and growth.
00:45:07.280 --> 00:45:16.079
Um, and so I just appreciated the conversation with him because I took away servant leader, determination, intentional.
00:45:16.159 --> 00:45:20.159
And I think you and I are so intentional about our picking and choosing.
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:25.679
You said something else too, Ivory, that want to go back to about capital and needing capital, and you talk about money.
00:45:25.840 --> 00:45:32.639
But one of the things that we're doing for season two is that we're pivoting because we did not want to stop our podcast.
00:45:32.880 --> 00:45:37.039
We're still we're working right now with um, we're creative out of LA.
00:45:37.119 --> 00:45:37.920
Zeus is on the line.
00:45:38.000 --> 00:45:39.920
Zeus, you can pop in and say hi if you want.
00:45:40.159 --> 00:45:44.320
But you know, uh, or you know, recognize by hand clap, whatever you want to do.
00:45:44.559 --> 00:45:49.360
But we're still doing the production, but we're wanting to pivot so that we can be sustainable.
00:45:49.599 --> 00:45:57.199
And as business people, you have to know when to pivot so that you can still be sustainable and consistent.
00:45:57.360 --> 00:45:58.559
And so it doesn't stop.
00:45:58.639 --> 00:46:00.960
We're just going to a different format and it's still fire.
00:46:01.119 --> 00:46:10.000
In fact, I'm gonna just say because I I love a little bit of informality, I'm kind of loving this format, and it's our first time doing a virtual, yeah.
00:46:10.480 --> 00:46:12.159
I think I I think it's great.
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:16.639
And Michelle and I, I mean, let's face it, we're boss ass bitches.
00:46:16.880 --> 00:46:25.039
We just and we're when we're bossed, we're not always going to be able to be in anybody's studio anywhere.
00:46:25.199 --> 00:46:34.559
So we're busy, and this actually frees up our time, and it frees up our time, and there's so many other things that Michelle and I are passionate about.
00:46:34.719 --> 00:46:40.320
So I just love you, co-founder, for your um continued vigilance.
00:46:40.480 --> 00:46:46.480
I think in any partnership, you have someone who might be the saver and somebody who might be the spender.
00:46:46.719 --> 00:46:48.800
And I think I think there's risk in both.
00:46:48.880 --> 00:46:53.119
If you both save and it ain't going nowhere, you're gonna be running in place in the hamster reel.
00:46:53.360 --> 00:46:59.360
If you ain't making an investment, I call it not just spending, but making an investment, there's some level of investment.
00:46:59.519 --> 00:47:08.639
But balancing those two things as partners is uh I'll just give my shell our flowers for making sure we continue to be good fiduciaries of our business.
00:47:08.880 --> 00:47:12.159
And uh podcasting is not just something you do in a season.
00:47:12.239 --> 00:47:17.199
Like, I mean, we're talking about season one right now, but you it is something you stick with over time.
00:47:17.519 --> 00:47:19.039
I already found out my shell.
00:47:19.119 --> 00:47:19.840
We have fans.
00:47:20.000 --> 00:47:21.599
I don't know if you know we have fans.
00:47:22.400 --> 00:47:26.880
When I was at this event the other day, one of the chief members she goes, I'm loving your podcast.
00:47:27.039 --> 00:47:29.440
And it just meant so much to me.
00:47:30.400 --> 00:47:31.920
It meant a lot to me too.
00:47:32.239 --> 00:47:32.719
Yeah, yeah.
00:47:32.960 --> 00:47:34.639
I got a text from Kristen.
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:40.000
Shout out to Kristen in Phoenix, she's one of my chief sisters, and she gave me live feedback.
00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:41.039
I hadn't seen her.
00:47:41.199 --> 00:47:44.000
Um, but let's keep rolling because we got a couple more we got to get through.
00:47:44.159 --> 00:47:44.400
All right.
00:47:45.599 --> 00:47:46.480
We got Morale now.
00:47:46.800 --> 00:47:47.840
We get comfortable now.
00:47:47.920 --> 00:47:52.639
I feel like I not that we have, but yes, we got so much to talk about, but go ahead.
00:47:53.119 --> 00:47:56.000
Rail took us to the next level with engagement.
00:47:56.159 --> 00:47:58.079
So yeah, let's see what he had to talk about.
00:47:58.320 --> 00:47:59.119
Zeus, where you at?
00:47:59.280 --> 00:47:59.599
Ralph.
00:47:59.679 --> 00:48:00.159
Come on.
00:48:01.920 --> 00:48:02.960
That's a funny story.
00:48:03.119 --> 00:48:07.119
So the first time I got nominated was for Wendy Williams, obviously.
00:48:07.360 --> 00:48:10.800
But I always thought it was political because I lost against the 700 club.
00:48:11.119 --> 00:48:11.599
Wait.
00:48:12.400 --> 00:48:14.079
That's not about makeup.
00:48:14.159 --> 00:48:15.760
I was like, they just didn't want this lady to have it.
00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:16.239
And they didn't.
00:48:16.559 --> 00:48:17.119
700 clubs.
00:48:17.280 --> 00:48:18.239
The 700 club.
00:48:18.400 --> 00:48:19.280
Is that still on?
00:48:19.440 --> 00:48:20.559
I don't even know what that is.
00:48:20.719 --> 00:48:22.159
I don't even know if they're still with this.
00:48:22.320 --> 00:48:23.119
I don't even know the premise of the city.
00:48:23.199 --> 00:48:24.159
I love that you didn't know what it was.
00:48:25.360 --> 00:48:27.280
Yeah, it's like uh great grandma, your grandma.
00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:28.880
They always donate it.
00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:32.800
Yeah, always, always asking for money, always talking about something.
00:48:33.039 --> 00:48:34.480
Don't come for a 700 club.
00:48:34.639 --> 00:48:35.119
Just saying.
00:48:35.199 --> 00:48:37.519
Yeah, but I don't think they have range.
00:48:37.920 --> 00:48:38.159
Okay.
00:48:38.719 --> 00:48:38.960
Okay.
00:48:40.960 --> 00:48:41.920
That's what's required.
00:48:42.159 --> 00:48:42.960
That was perfect.
00:48:44.719 --> 00:48:45.280
All right.
00:48:45.679 --> 00:48:50.400
So um I love Morale, and I'm jealous you're with him today.
00:48:50.719 --> 00:48:52.000
Y'all left me out on purpose.
00:48:52.079 --> 00:48:52.480
You do not know what I'm saying.
00:48:52.800 --> 00:48:53.440
We'll send pictures.
00:48:53.840 --> 00:48:54.000
Nope.
00:48:54.159 --> 00:48:56.719
He texted me this week and was like, hey, I'm gonna be in Phoenix.
00:48:56.800 --> 00:48:58.639
Or maybe it was like, I'm gonna be there at the end of the week.
00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:01.840
Listen, I don't know, but I gotta tell you one thing.
00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:03.599
We have become his muse.
00:49:03.760 --> 00:49:08.960
He's done our makeup a few times, and he did our last photo shoot, and it's fire.
00:49:09.119 --> 00:49:14.000
So you'll see new photos, and we're gonna flood your timeline, people with all our new photos.
00:49:14.159 --> 00:49:14.960
We don't care.
00:49:15.119 --> 00:49:25.199
Um, now I've gotten into this posting, not really, but I'm gonna flood your timeline because the infamous Morel shot us and also did our makeup, glammed us up.
00:49:25.920 --> 00:49:27.039
What do you think about the conversation?
00:49:27.519 --> 00:49:28.719
Yeah, Morel Hollis.
00:49:28.880 --> 00:49:31.679
So, first of all, he is a creative director.
00:49:31.840 --> 00:49:34.639
Uh, makeup is part of what he does for sure.
00:49:34.719 --> 00:49:37.199
That's where he got us us his start.
00:49:37.519 --> 00:49:49.280
But I recognize oh my gosh, from the makeup to how he curates your outfits, yeah, every little detail, and it is the premise of Rehab Range.
00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:51.119
Morel represents Mary J.
00:49:51.280 --> 00:50:00.159
Blige, he's represented William Windows, his list and who he's worked with over his very decorated career, 30 years, I think he said.
00:50:00.639 --> 00:50:01.519
He said 30 years, yeah.
00:50:01.679 --> 00:50:04.400
It's not like 30 years because that's when I started working with him.
00:50:04.480 --> 00:50:08.480
Um we were doing videos for bad boy entertainment in New York.
00:50:08.639 --> 00:50:10.079
Um, that's where I'm Morel.
00:50:10.400 --> 00:50:12.000
And he started as a teenager.
00:50:12.159 --> 00:50:13.519
Let's also talk about that.
00:50:13.679 --> 00:50:19.280
Like, I love that we are hearing from story, hearing stories of people who started really young.
00:50:19.440 --> 00:50:22.239
So um and can share their experience with us.
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:29.920
But he, I just he you would have never you couldn't tell me nothing when he was telling, you know, taking care of our details.
00:50:30.239 --> 00:50:34.960
I felt like I was uh a lister working with Morel.
00:50:35.119 --> 00:50:45.920
And so the premise of this of our show is to tell the stories of everyday people who are doing extraordinary things and bringing people from behind the camera, from behind the scenes.
00:50:46.079 --> 00:50:47.679
And that's who Morel represents.
00:50:47.760 --> 00:50:50.639
But Michael, I know you know Morel going back.
00:50:50.800 --> 00:50:55.760
What resonated with you in terms of uh some of what he shared on the platform with us?
00:50:56.000 --> 00:51:07.599
Yeah, and I was just gonna add, and they may already have a platform, like uh we had Ian, we're gonna go into him in a bit, but you know, Morel has an amazing platform and he really brought us into his network.
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:18.559
And so when someone takes a chance, what what really resonated to go to your question is him believing in us, and still to this day, he's like, we should do this, we should do that.
00:51:18.719 --> 00:51:28.880
So I want to thank Morel publicly for believing in us and saying, Oh no, y'all are fire, and just being a friend consistently.
00:51:28.960 --> 00:51:39.440
And it it when we saw each other, it was like we hadn't seen each, it's like it was like yesterday, but that's when he knows that it's real true friendship, and he just absolutely loves you as well, Ivory.
00:51:39.519 --> 00:51:47.199
And when you guys first met, you you just his kind of person, and it I knew that he would, and which is I love you, you're the authentic.
00:51:47.679 --> 00:52:00.159
Um, but what resonated for me um with him is when you get to a certain point in your career, you become it can become lonely.
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:06.239
Because very, I mean, I'm not saying that's not people that will relate, but your circle gets smaller.
00:52:06.559 --> 00:52:07.280
It does.
00:52:07.519 --> 00:52:10.639
And sometimes everybody's not gonna come along with you.
00:52:10.880 --> 00:52:15.519
And you feel you don't want to feel like you're bragging, but it's your reality, right?
00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:20.480
It becomes your reality as you start to move in different circles and people are growing with you.
00:52:20.639 --> 00:52:24.639
And if you're not growing, you might get left behind, and that's okay.
00:52:24.800 --> 00:52:33.039
So we sometimes have to say bye-bye, not intentionally, but it just happens organically that everybody will not come along.
00:52:33.440 --> 00:52:36.079
Yeah, everyone wants, yeah, that's it.
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:42.480
And um, and we certainly, Michelle, having grown up where we are, we talk about we see it with family, with friends.
00:52:42.719 --> 00:53:01.360
Um, not everyone can go with you, but Morel really just um shed a light on that and made us feel I felt really validated listening to someone who has ascended into a level of uh being the top of his game in his space and sharing back those lessons.
00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:04.000
And so we we don't feel alone, right?
00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:10.639
I mean, we're doing something very remarkable and very credible, and there are so many people who are so happy for us.
00:53:10.880 --> 00:53:14.480
It's so we're attending our first content festival.
00:53:14.559 --> 00:53:16.960
It's called Creative Content in LA.
00:53:17.119 --> 00:53:20.159
I'm super excited because we're also expanding our network.
00:53:20.320 --> 00:53:23.199
Like the what we're doing is not our day job stuff.
00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:25.519
So we're now like, hey, we got to expand our network.
00:53:25.599 --> 00:53:29.199
We need to be in the spaces with people who are creating and learn from them.
00:53:29.280 --> 00:53:31.760
So it's gonna be really fun when we do that in a few weeks.
00:53:32.000 --> 00:53:32.719
Looking forward to that.
00:53:32.800 --> 00:53:34.960
But let's get in our to the next one.
00:53:35.199 --> 00:53:41.199
Um, Lil E, he also um expanded our uh viewing audience and our network.
00:53:41.440 --> 00:53:43.519
Um, so let's see what Lil E had to say.
00:53:43.679 --> 00:53:44.559
Lil Easy E.
00:53:44.880 --> 00:53:49.760
Junior, how did you influence your way into the space without going the traditional route?
00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:54.800
Uh a friend of mine was like, hey, my cousin owns a record store as well, and uh has a studio.
00:53:54.960 --> 00:53:58.480
So he has artists that we're gonna find the biggest artist from Las Vegas.
00:53:58.559 --> 00:54:04.159
Because if you think about it, Las Vegas doesn't have anybody that just kind of boom, we have a lot of artists, but anybody say, I'm originally from Las Vegas.
00:54:04.239 --> 00:54:06.159
So I was like, we called it the Cali Vegas Connect.
00:54:06.239 --> 00:54:10.320
And we're just bored, and one of my business partners was like, Hey, why don't you go in a booth?
00:54:10.400 --> 00:54:11.039
And I'm like, What?
00:54:11.280 --> 00:54:12.000
Like, just play around.
00:54:12.079 --> 00:54:14.239
We're kind of you know, toxicated, you know me.
00:54:14.320 --> 00:54:15.280
And I'm like, all right, cool.
00:54:15.360 --> 00:54:15.840
You know what I mean?
00:54:15.920 --> 00:54:16.800
Let me go mess around.
00:54:16.880 --> 00:54:20.719
So me and my brother used to take my father's songs and rewrite them and say our names.
00:54:20.800 --> 00:54:23.280
It was real easy for me because it's an air, you know what I mean?
00:54:23.679 --> 00:54:28.159
So he just did it, and my partner was like, Man, like, you got a good voice too.
00:54:28.239 --> 00:54:36.239
And from that point on at 18 years old, I was like, uh, didn't think about it, but hey, I can do the executive producer and artist role is like my father.
00:54:36.960 --> 00:54:37.199
I agree.
00:54:37.679 --> 00:54:38.239
Why not?
00:54:40.880 --> 00:54:44.960
First of all, can we just talk about how fly our We Have Range song is?
00:54:45.280 --> 00:54:48.000
I oh my gosh, I love it.
00:54:48.800 --> 00:54:59.920
So um, shout out to Ash for helping us uh put that together um and uh with our song and uh our little promo trailer.
00:55:00.159 --> 00:55:02.559
If you haven't seen it, go watch it.
00:55:02.800 --> 00:55:07.119
Um uh I love that we have our own music, it's been very important in my show.
00:55:07.199 --> 00:55:10.800
I'll actually give you your flowers when we were first getting going due to this.
00:55:10.880 --> 00:55:13.360
You were like, we need to trademark this.
00:55:13.519 --> 00:55:24.480
We need to, you know, be make sure we protect the brands that we're building, but also make sure everything that we do, we have ownership over it and that we control it.
00:55:24.559 --> 00:55:26.239
So I love that we have our own song.
00:55:26.400 --> 00:55:45.599
Um, and so having a guest on like um like little easy Eric Lil Easy E, uh, whose father helped found, you know, hip-hop and rap, really a lot of people I say he is one of the the founders and original influencers of the rap and hip-hop community.
00:55:45.840 --> 00:56:02.719
And so to have it, uh to have someone like him on our platform and really uh be a part and have that history and share with us not only um his legacy that he's leading, but the type of entrepreneurship that he's involved in and how he's been able to carry that forward.
00:56:03.039 --> 00:56:12.320
And so um, yeah, it would it was great to hear from him and um and really get to know him beyond the headlines and beyond the social media.
00:56:12.719 --> 00:56:16.800
He's a dope a super cool human.
00:56:17.039 --> 00:56:21.119
And I want to give credit to Dominique Hippolit.
00:56:21.519 --> 00:56:27.119
Um, she is our uh season one producer and she works with little E.
00:56:27.440 --> 00:56:32.719
And um, so she sourced him, and we had a great, great conversation with him.
00:56:32.960 --> 00:56:39.840
And I think for me, what resonated is you do not have to stay where you're from.
00:56:40.480 --> 00:56:44.639
Growth means moving from the spaces that no longer serve you.
00:56:44.960 --> 00:56:52.800
Um, if it's not allowing you to expand, elevate, and empower yourself, then you have to find new spaces that will do that for you.
00:56:52.880 --> 00:57:04.079
So I want to really just shout out uh to Eric for knowing that look, Compton is not a place where I can right now raise my kids because the schools aren't that great, but let me find a way.
00:57:04.159 --> 00:57:11.039
And he talks about the Eric Wright Foundation, and he talks about giving back to Compton to build it up.
00:57:11.199 --> 00:57:16.639
So when you leave a space, don't just leave it, go back and see how you can contribute with your success.
00:57:16.800 --> 00:57:17.760
And so he's doing that.
00:57:17.840 --> 00:57:19.599
And so I think two things can be true.
00:57:19.840 --> 00:57:29.119
You can say, this is not serving what I need right now, but I'm gonna go do this, but I'm also gonna feed and give back to the community who raised me.
00:57:29.280 --> 00:57:34.320
And so I really love that he talks about that and the Eric Rapp Foundation.
00:57:34.559 --> 00:57:39.519
I want to thank um uh Dominique for all her contributions to season one.
00:57:39.599 --> 00:57:41.119
She's a dynamic woman.
00:57:41.519 --> 00:57:49.760
Um, and honestly, we couldn't have been able to do a lot of this without her um because we have, like we said, our very busy day careers.
00:57:49.840 --> 00:58:02.559
But this is something that we're super passionate about, and it's not a side hustle, it is two executives, one vision, and one mission that is to really share and empower and teach and build the world.
00:58:02.639 --> 00:58:07.440
So and you forgot to add, and we're unboxed, and we're unboxed.
00:58:07.599 --> 00:58:14.239
We are listening, I'm wearing my big hoops that I don't wear in my daytime career, but I'm trying to slowly move them towards it.
00:58:14.480 --> 00:58:15.440
Yeah, being ours.
00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:22.320
I'll I'll just clarify one more thing since we're doing a recap on the on the season one was um little easy easy episode.
00:58:22.400 --> 00:58:28.159
Is on the on the episode I said for those who don't know, Compton is part of inner city Los Angeles.
00:58:28.239 --> 00:58:32.960
My husband wanted to be like, Why do you act like you don't know geography of your ass is from LA?
00:58:33.440 --> 00:58:34.559
Let me just clarify.
00:58:36.559 --> 00:58:41.679
I was just trying to clarify that Compton, apparently, my husband was like, Everybody knows where Compton is.
00:58:41.840 --> 00:58:46.239
I'm like, okay, I'm always trying to think of us having a global audience.
00:58:46.880 --> 00:58:48.159
So uh we globally.
00:58:48.559 --> 00:58:51.119
But I would say no, everybody doesn't know where Compton's is.
00:58:51.199 --> 00:58:53.039
I mean, you can ask people and they don't know.
00:58:53.119 --> 00:58:55.519
I think we can never assume people know.
00:58:56.000 --> 00:59:01.679
Yeah, so he just wanted me to clarify that Compton is not in inner, it is its own city.
00:59:01.840 --> 00:59:07.199
Um, it is geographically in proximity to Los Angeles, to inner city Los Angeles.
00:59:07.280 --> 00:59:08.400
So I'll just clarify.
00:59:08.480 --> 00:59:17.280
Uh, but growing up, listen, growing up in the hood, overcoming those circumstances, I have certainly roots um experience there in South LA.
00:59:17.360 --> 00:59:31.199
And I can just say to your point, Michelle, uh highlighting what you said, for you to be able to um move, move from that, recognize it's not necessarily a pace you want to live, but do things that impact, empower.
00:59:31.360 --> 00:59:38.000
Um, even us just having this platform and saying, we have range, I have a different background than you do.
00:59:38.159 --> 00:59:49.199
Um, but regardless of the circumstances, we're here to share that if you put some some effort, time, vision, and you really believe in yourself, you can do and accomplish anything you want to.
00:59:49.440 --> 00:59:55.519
And to the last point on that, your start does not uh does not determine your destination.
00:59:55.760 --> 00:59:56.559
Absolutely not.
00:59:56.960 --> 01:00:04.480
I also want people to know and hear that just because you may have$20 today doesn't mean that you can't have 200,000 tomorrow.
01:00:04.800 --> 01:00:05.599
That's exactly right.
01:00:06.880 --> 01:00:10.719
You can't sit on your ass and do nothing, but everything is possible.
01:00:10.800 --> 01:00:16.079
There's nothing no one has ever told me that I can't do, I've done it.
01:00:16.239 --> 01:00:19.119
Like I said, I want this and I've done it.
01:00:19.199 --> 01:00:23.119
So I love that saying, what you eat don't make me shit.
01:00:25.440 --> 01:00:26.800
Okay, we'll come back to that.
01:00:26.880 --> 01:00:28.000
I'm I'm gonna think about it.
01:00:29.039 --> 01:00:30.880
You just made me think about it.
01:00:31.679 --> 01:00:33.599
What you were just saying about the work.
01:00:33.679 --> 01:00:38.719
You you gotta you gotta get you like I wish I could just Michelle tell me about her workouts.
01:00:38.880 --> 01:00:51.280
I wish by listening to her getting up doing her run or her walk with her dog Bo or going to this uh studio and doing a fit hit or whatever the hell she be doing, I wish her telling me that took the pounds off me.
01:00:51.440 --> 01:00:53.039
But the shit don't work that way.
01:00:53.199 --> 01:00:58.960
No, you cannot, you have to put in the work to achieve you want the to achieve the things you want to say.
01:00:59.039 --> 01:01:01.199
So that's a that's a way, a better way to articulate it.
01:01:01.280 --> 01:01:07.199
But I like just because you read a leadership book, if you don't practice it, you're not a leader.
01:01:07.840 --> 01:01:08.400
You ain't gonna learn.
01:01:09.440 --> 01:01:10.079
You have to practice.
01:01:10.239 --> 01:01:14.000
All right, so our last video, um, and we had it was such a vast season.
01:01:14.079 --> 01:01:17.519
We have 12 episodes, I think it's 12 episodes in season one, right?
01:01:17.679 --> 01:01:19.280
At least, at least 12.
01:01:19.360 --> 01:01:21.039
I don't really 12.
01:01:21.280 --> 01:01:26.159
But this one, um Cloyston Sheila, is absolutely Ivory's favorite.
01:01:26.320 --> 01:01:30.960
But I'm gonna tell you something that I wish I had done during this conversation.
01:01:31.119 --> 01:01:32.480
All right, let's see it.
01:01:33.760 --> 01:01:40.480
And regardless of what people's faith or background is, I think it is incredibly important for folks to be on the same page.
01:01:41.599 --> 01:01:45.679
Whatever your spiritual alignment is, I think if you find that to be difficult in marriage.
01:01:45.760 --> 01:01:50.800
If you have, for example, someone wants to be an atheist and someone believes in God, how are you gonna live through life that way?
01:01:50.960 --> 01:01:52.800
You know, you know, if you're just not on the same page.
01:01:53.119 --> 01:01:54.480
Well, it talks about being equally yoked.
01:01:54.639 --> 01:01:54.800
Yeah.
01:01:55.360 --> 01:02:02.400
It it's not just about your spirituality, it's it's about the things that you have that make you who you are.
01:02:02.559 --> 01:02:06.960
What are your values, regardless of whether it's you know, somebody being an atheist or something else?
01:02:07.119 --> 01:02:08.559
It's still about the values that you have.
01:02:08.639 --> 01:02:12.159
Do they actually do they match with that other individual?
01:02:12.400 --> 01:02:15.760
And um, if that is not the case, it's gonna make it very difficult.
01:02:15.840 --> 01:02:17.039
I'm not saying it can't be done.
01:02:17.440 --> 01:02:21.119
I mean, we see couples that come in all the time that they have different things that they like.
01:02:21.199 --> 01:02:23.280
They may even have different values.
01:02:23.440 --> 01:02:24.880
Somehow they managed to make it work.
01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:28.320
Okay.
01:02:29.440 --> 01:02:42.639
Um I so I love the conversation because I believe that couples counseling, partners counsel, any kind of counseling that betters you is great.
01:02:42.719 --> 01:02:47.519
But you know what I wish I had said during that conversation and asked and challenged a little bit more.
01:02:47.679 --> 01:02:49.519
I think you might know where I'm going.
01:02:51.840 --> 01:02:57.840
Lovely Christian counseling team, and they are so Cloys and Sheila loved you.
01:02:58.159 --> 01:03:02.079
But I wish I had asked them how do you approach same-sex counseling?
01:03:02.639 --> 01:03:11.920
Because they're married same-sex couples um who might feel sitting outside of that conversation.
01:03:12.320 --> 01:03:21.920
Yeah, I think what I think, listen, that's why we say on our platform we don't get into religious debates or political debates, but we will.
01:03:22.000 --> 01:03:25.920
I talk about being a woman of faith, being a woman of God.
01:03:26.079 --> 01:03:27.199
Um, those are values.
01:03:27.599 --> 01:03:32.960
You also recognize same-sex couples, and you have friends who are so you don't ounce them.
01:03:33.119 --> 01:03:37.920
Um, and I don't know that religion ever talks about same-sex not being a thing.
01:03:38.000 --> 01:03:40.159
And in the Bible, nowhere does it say that, by the way.
01:03:40.960 --> 01:03:41.920
Absolutely, absolutely.
01:03:42.159 --> 01:03:46.960
And listen, my my own take, I am a P, I I love everyone.
01:03:47.119 --> 01:03:52.639
I really believe how I have grown up in faith is that listen, Jesus loved everybody.
01:03:52.880 --> 01:03:55.280
Um, and and who are we to judge?
01:03:55.599 --> 01:03:58.320
We we are not, and in fact, we're told not to judge.
01:03:58.480 --> 01:04:05.119
So I just move about life living in that way and living in that space and treating in that space.
01:04:05.199 --> 01:04:10.079
I do recall a comment Sheila May Maying say, well, we don't turn anyone away.
01:04:10.239 --> 01:04:20.079
And I I really I truly think that um they have first of all, in addition to being Christian-based counselors, um, they have a very large platform.
01:04:20.239 --> 01:04:31.280
So our show, uh uh, we highlight entrepreneurs um and what they're do, what they did from a business perspective, which is start a platform to uh bring all these groups together.
01:04:32.239 --> 01:04:38.079
So I think um, I think they do their it's purpose-driven work and uh they're really good people.
01:04:38.159 --> 01:04:52.559
And I I could totally understand why you might answer that question is because listen, I don't care who you're with or who you love, if you are in partnership, in relationship, you got some of the same problems.
01:04:53.039 --> 01:05:00.079
Somebody mad about somebody been on this text message and this social media, somebody uh been gone out too late.
01:05:00.239 --> 01:05:15.599
And absolutely relationships are relationships, don't matter same sex or not, it really doesn't, it doesn't matter if it's uh child, parent relationships are gonna have conflict.
01:05:15.760 --> 01:05:24.639
And if you ever think that you're gonna have a relationship and there's no conflict, you're lying to yourself, yeah, right now you're probably not doing relationship well.
01:05:24.960 --> 01:05:26.400
No, and that's one thing Cloy said.
01:05:26.480 --> 01:05:27.920
We said, what brings couples to you?
01:05:28.000 --> 01:05:30.000
Why are they like when they're having struggles?
01:05:30.079 --> 01:05:30.639
What do you see?
01:05:30.800 --> 01:05:49.360
And he says they don't know how to flight and they don't know how to have conflict, and um, yeah, they don't have and so if you can't work through conflict and you can't face it, you're gonna it's gonna ball up, it's gonna explode, and you're gonna break down and if without resources, but I'll say this, Michelle.
01:05:49.599 --> 01:05:59.760
I don't think the conversations if they if someone hears Christian based values and or biblical principles, things like that, you know, our show is about range, so you can take you can take.
01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:02.320
Take the parts of it that you're like, you know what?
01:06:02.480 --> 01:06:04.079
I don't do I don't agree with that.
01:06:04.239 --> 01:06:08.480
Because listen, I talk about my marriage now, but honey, I'm a two-time divorcee as well.
01:06:08.559 --> 01:06:10.800
So someone would be like, what does she know about marriage?
01:06:11.039 --> 01:06:11.920
She got divorced before.
01:06:12.079 --> 01:06:14.800
Well, then you sit that, you sit that conversation out.
01:06:14.960 --> 01:06:24.079
But I will say this, I don't think it excludes them from conversation because there are still so much learning and teaching in there that is applicable.
01:06:24.480 --> 01:06:27.280
I just think I should have, I should have asked the question.
01:06:27.599 --> 01:06:30.880
But I didn't want to feel like I was doing like a gotcha moment.
01:06:31.039 --> 01:06:31.599
You know what I mean?
01:06:31.840 --> 01:06:32.719
Yeah, I think it's tough.
01:06:33.360 --> 01:06:34.239
What was off limits?
01:06:34.320 --> 01:06:41.119
And if honestly, we don't do you don't come on and have a conversation with us, and there's we'll I take that back.
01:06:41.199 --> 01:06:44.639
There are if we ask people, hey, what do you not want to talk about?
01:06:44.880 --> 01:06:47.679
And so they share that with us, and we say, Okay.
01:06:48.320 --> 01:06:53.440
But honestly, no one who's come on has given us things that they didn't want to talk about.
01:06:53.519 --> 01:06:57.840
There were well, we had a couple clear clarifications, but for good reasons.
01:06:58.320 --> 01:06:58.960
Oh yeah.
01:06:59.280 --> 01:07:03.679
Yeah, some things that so some things are just we we can't go to the public.
01:07:04.320 --> 01:07:07.360
Did not want to talk about because some deep legal stuff.
01:07:07.440 --> 01:07:09.840
Um yeah, deep legal legal related.
01:07:09.920 --> 01:07:14.719
Yeah, yeah, some very public things in the news, and people can guess what those things are if you want.
01:07:14.960 --> 01:07:16.000
I don't really care.
01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:20.639
Um, but yes, but we do ask that question, and honestly, they did not say that.
01:07:20.800 --> 01:07:32.239
And I didn't want to feel like because you know what, we're in partnership with the people who come in and have conversations, and I'm not about this viral life, so for me, I never want to take people off guard in that way.
01:07:32.639 --> 01:07:38.480
But lesson learned from me, just do what you want, and they can choose to answer or not, yeah.
01:07:38.719 --> 01:07:41.599
Or or choice comes up again.
01:07:42.159 --> 01:07:44.320
Choice comes up, choice comes up.
01:07:44.559 --> 01:08:06.559
Michael, as we as we bring our reflection into flow focus um here, and as we're wrapping up, uh Kois and Sheila is is our last uh guest that we some of our last guests that we have on the season, um, is that I really just reflect on um they've been doing a lot of incredible work for a long time.
01:08:06.639 --> 01:08:13.119
And what we see on We Have Range and why we have our platform is you can do so many things.
01:08:13.360 --> 01:08:17.279
Um, and we uh, Michelle, you and I have discussed this the pie model.
01:08:17.600 --> 01:08:21.279
What matters most is it performance, image, or exposure?
01:08:21.439 --> 01:08:22.960
And there's a study out there.
01:08:23.039 --> 01:08:29.920
Um, if you look up the pie model, it was created by a gentleman who um studied this for 40 years in different various courses.
01:08:30.960 --> 01:08:31.760
Can you remember his name?
01:08:31.920 --> 01:08:32.720
I gotta pull a name.
01:08:32.800 --> 01:08:38.159
I would say I'll drop it in the comments or I'll make sure to I'm gonna try to pull that up real quick while you talk about it.
01:08:38.479 --> 01:08:42.399
Um uh but yeah, but it talks about performance, image, and exposure.
01:08:42.479 --> 01:08:44.399
And a lot of people say what matters most.
01:08:44.640 --> 01:08:48.079
Immediately people go, Oh, as long as I'm doing a good job and whatever I'm doing.
01:08:48.399 --> 01:08:57.039
And then other people are like, well, for whatever wherever space I'm in, as long as I have a good image, whether like people like me or how they see me, that matters most.
01:08:57.279 --> 01:09:14.079
And in fact, uh performance is rated at 10%, image is rated at 30%, and it was exposure that was rated at 60% as the most influential thing you can do in whatever space you're in that's gonna take you the furthest.
01:09:14.159 --> 01:09:20.800
Because you could be doing the most incredible things, but if no one knows about it, why does it matter?
01:09:20.960 --> 01:09:24.239
You know, so uh, Michelle, this is our pivot.
01:09:24.319 --> 01:09:26.720
We talk about pivots in this season.
01:09:26.800 --> 01:09:30.479
We have been doing incredible things, you and I both for over 20 years in career.
01:09:30.720 --> 01:09:43.119
We are we have incredible images in our own industry, and we're now bringing a platform where there are other people like us hidden behind the shadows, and we're telling those stories too.
01:09:43.359 --> 01:09:47.359
So, did you find the person who created the Harvey Coleman?
01:09:47.520 --> 01:09:49.920
And just to add to that exposure, sorry, what was his name?
01:09:50.000 --> 01:09:50.800
I didn't catch it.
01:09:51.119 --> 01:09:52.479
Harvey Coleman.
01:09:53.439 --> 01:10:04.479
Harvey Coleman, yeah, and just to bring it back into uh focus, like you said, uh, and he's done a lot of organizational behavior, he's an organizational behavior expert.
01:10:04.880 --> 01:10:10.159
Um, the exposure piece kind of goes back to that social media thing that I absolutely hate.
01:10:10.399 --> 01:10:16.640
Um, if people don't know what you're doing, then there's no way for them to talk about it.
01:10:16.800 --> 01:10:23.359
And I I also will say, just to add to what you said, and and thank you, Ivory, because that pie model is so true.
01:10:23.760 --> 01:10:51.439
I feel like throughout my entire career, um being able to have exposure, geographical exposure, living in New York, San Francisco, and now I lived in Oakland but worked in San Francisco, but now um living in Phoenix, the exposure to people has been probably one of the greatest elevations for me.
01:10:51.840 --> 01:10:56.079
Um, because I can probably dial up somebody in my Rolodex.
01:10:56.800 --> 01:11:01.840
And for you young people who don't know what a Rolodex is, it's the new contacts that's in your phone.
01:11:02.000 --> 01:11:05.439
But people used to have this real thing where they wrote down names.
01:11:05.680 --> 01:11:14.159
Um and for me, what I'm realizing is that exposure has been everything.
01:11:14.319 --> 01:11:22.960
And it's allowed me to create relationships with people that I probably would not have had before.
01:11:23.439 --> 01:11:25.600
And I'm just grateful for that.
01:11:25.760 --> 01:11:30.479
I'm grateful I wouldn't have met Ivory if I had not lived in the Bay Area.
01:11:30.720 --> 01:11:32.960
We met at a women's event.
01:11:33.199 --> 01:11:38.560
Um, and her also just being, first of all, she is naturally bold.
01:11:38.720 --> 01:11:42.159
She walked up to me and was like, uh, I want you to be my accountability partner.
01:11:42.399 --> 01:11:42.880
Excuse me.
01:11:43.039 --> 01:11:44.159
Oh, hello, hi.
01:11:45.039 --> 01:11:47.199
Um I appreciate that.
01:11:47.359 --> 01:11:52.319
I I appreciate her boldness, her authenticity.
01:11:52.560 --> 01:11:54.880
She's been like that since day one.
01:11:55.119 --> 01:11:57.840
And that is really the power of attraction.
01:11:58.000 --> 01:12:01.520
You're generally attracted to people in something that you really admire.
01:12:01.680 --> 01:12:03.279
And that's what I admire by Ivory.
01:12:03.359 --> 01:12:13.680
Her fire, like she's fiery, she's bold, she doesn't um, she she doesn't hold back and she she takes risks.
01:12:13.840 --> 01:12:19.119
And as I've gotten older, and I talk about this throughout the season, I have taken less risks.
01:12:19.279 --> 01:12:22.720
Like I'm a little bit in a safe pocket, but I was like, nope, we're gonna do this.
01:12:22.800 --> 01:12:26.640
And and sometimes, uh, but I appreciate thank you for pushing me.
01:12:27.039 --> 01:12:32.800
And everybody needs a partner that pushes them out of their comfort um zone.
01:12:32.960 --> 01:12:37.600
And the comfort is me not wanting necessarily take risks and see what it feels like.
01:12:37.680 --> 01:12:40.880
So I really appreciate you for that because it's been transforming it.
01:12:40.960 --> 01:12:45.199
And I would say the central theme for season one has been pivot.
01:12:45.520 --> 01:12:53.199
Every guest has talked about how they've pivoted throughout their life and how it has transformed them.
01:12:53.520 --> 01:13:00.640
So for me, I just say thank you for pushing me to take the risk and worry about that shit later.
01:13:00.800 --> 01:13:08.159
Because that's really like we're gonna do this, and we're we always say we're doing it scared, we're flying the plane, we're building the plane as we're flying it.
01:13:08.239 --> 01:13:11.920
I don't know how you really do that in real life, but that is what's happening.
01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:20.800
Um, if anybody wants to know how we're doing it, we're pivoting season two to doing virtual, and I gotta tell you, I feel a little bit more natural in this atmosphere.
01:13:20.960 --> 01:13:24.720
Although I love the energy of being in studio, I really do.
01:13:25.039 --> 01:13:27.920
And we have a couple guests that will you'll still be doing that.
01:13:29.119 --> 01:13:33.279
We're filming in a few weeks in a new studio who's open with right now.
01:13:33.520 --> 01:13:47.680
Oh my god, what an exciting guest! Yes, one of the word applause needs because big opening with workflow, um, and we will be using that studio in LA.
01:13:47.840 --> 01:13:50.800
We will still be using um studio in Vegas and City.
01:13:50.880 --> 01:13:52.640
So we're just kind of we're expanding.
01:13:52.720 --> 01:13:56.720
So we're we're pivoting and expanding at the same time.
01:13:57.039 --> 01:13:57.680
Yep.
01:13:57.920 --> 01:13:59.199
So me last words.
01:14:00.079 --> 01:14:03.199
Uh no, Michelle, you I give you your flowers.
01:14:03.439 --> 01:14:11.279
Um, thank you for acknowledging my risk taking, but also you're the one that reminds me I need a I need a parachute if we're gonna jump off a plane.
01:14:11.520 --> 01:14:13.439
Um, so so we don't die.
01:14:13.760 --> 01:14:18.800
So um, so I think it's the balance, and you uh inspire me incredibly.
01:14:18.880 --> 01:14:20.880
You're so professional, you're so smart.
01:14:21.039 --> 01:14:25.039
Um, you being a certified coach, I'm I'm definitely being coached, y'all.
01:14:25.199 --> 01:14:33.199
You can't tell me I used to say you can't tell me nothing, but now my partner here tells me a lot of things with her uh certified coaching uh experience.
01:14:33.359 --> 01:14:44.640
Uh, but I just really appreciate you and um for going on this journey with me and for us having a space where we hope we can do like CJ said and impact a million lives.
01:14:44.880 --> 01:14:46.239
You know, impact a million.
01:14:46.479 --> 01:14:47.520
I I so appreciate that.
01:14:47.600 --> 01:14:49.279
And listen, we have grown.
01:14:49.359 --> 01:14:53.680
Like when we first started as We Have Range, we did not have a following.
01:14:54.000 --> 01:14:56.399
And I we look at the analytics.
01:14:56.560 --> 01:14:59.439
I'm gonna tell you though, I don't really care that much about the analytics.
01:14:59.600 --> 01:15:14.159
I want to know that we have quality followers who's gonna come on this ride and be consistent with us through the ups and downs, the inconsistency, but not inconsistency, like if we mess up on something, don't you like hold our feet to the fire, we'll correct ourselves.
01:15:14.319 --> 01:15:16.000
It's okay, we're not perfect.
01:15:16.159 --> 01:15:24.720
So you're gonna be talking to yourself with the right, and and we're gonna keep going, and we are so encouraged.
01:15:24.880 --> 01:15:29.600
So even if we don't have, you know, 15,000 today, we will get there.
01:15:29.840 --> 01:15:36.399
And yeah, I love that it will be a story to be told about where we started and where we will be.
01:15:36.640 --> 01:15:38.399
Um, nothing stops us.
01:15:38.479 --> 01:15:44.479
I mean, I'm determined, but I got a partner that's way more informed than me, and it catches me every day.
01:15:44.640 --> 01:15:48.960
So I want to thank everybody who's been on season one and riding with us.
01:15:49.119 --> 01:15:50.239
It has been fun.
01:15:50.560 --> 01:15:52.560
It's we've learned so much about ourselves.
01:15:52.720 --> 01:15:56.399
Ivory talked about that the other day when we had to make some changes to our team.
01:15:56.560 --> 01:16:00.640
And it's like, you know, we learned a lot about it's informing our professional lives, right?
01:16:00.800 --> 01:16:08.720
It's it's informing how we move through um our daytime professional life and the lessons that we've learned.
01:16:08.880 --> 01:16:14.319
So while it may seem not aligned, it is so aligned to who we are day to day.
01:16:14.560 --> 01:16:18.479
Um, so I want to say thank you for being on the ride with We Have Range.

Yeah, you don't have to be a little bit.
