Dividends.

20
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,100
are happening, some very cool, 
things are happening.

00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,000
talk about here today. 
If you wouldn't mind liking and 

26
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,700
subscribing to the podcast, we 
would be very appreciative of 

27
00:01:26,700 --> 00:01:31,000
that and you know, I'm Really 
excited about today. 

28
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,300
As you can see, we're not in the
normal Studio that we shoot in. 

29
00:01:34,900 --> 00:01:42,100
We are an on location at Black 
Market, Barber company and SMP. 

30
00:01:42,100 --> 00:01:44,100
We're going to talk about what 
all that means here in a second.

31
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:47,800
I got Nicholas the owner founder
of this establishment here. 

32
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,800
And before I kind of start with 
him, I really grateful that he's

33
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,000
taken time out to talk about 
these things with us. 

34
00:01:54,300 --> 00:01:58,300
One of the things that one of 
the reasons why when my wife and

35
00:01:58,300 --> 00:02:00,200
her team started building Heat 
Changed. 

36
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,600
It was, they discovered a lot of
pain points that men have. 

37
00:02:04,100 --> 00:02:06,700
And, you know, we've talked a 
lot about these on the show. 

38
00:02:06,700 --> 00:02:08,800
We've talked about purpose, 
we've talked about trauma, we've

39
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,800
talked about all sorts of things
but one of the pain points that 

40
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,600
has come up time and time again 
for guys that many times 

41
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,800
typically we're not incapable of
talking about but not really 

42
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,400
excited to talk about is body 
image and a lot of guys feel 

43
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,900
that way and I think it's not 
even just being stereotypical, 

44
00:02:29,100 --> 00:02:30,900
what I throw out. 
There the idea, I got a lot of 

45
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:32,900
gals in my life, who are not 
afraid at all. 

46
00:02:32,900 --> 00:02:36,000
The talk about how they feel 
about their bodies, how they 

47
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,000
feel about, you know, the 
clothes they wear, or their 

48
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,800
hair, or things like that and 
compare and, and, and get that 

49
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,000
kind of stuff out of their 
system. 

50
00:02:44,300 --> 00:02:50,600
Whereas a lot of guys are 
sitting there, not sure about 

51
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,600
how they look, not sure about 
how they feel about the skin 

52
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,300
that they're living in. 
And we're going to focus a 

53
00:02:56,308 --> 00:02:59,800
little bit more on. 
He cast on that particular pain.

54
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,900
Today we're going to do that. 
We got Nicholas the owner of 

55
00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:06,100
Black Market Barber Co here. 
Thank you so much for taking 

56
00:03:06,100 --> 00:03:07,900
time to be here and to talk 
about some of this stuff with 

57
00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:09,200
me, brother. 
I'm really excited to see you, 

58
00:03:09,208 --> 00:03:10,300
man. 
Thank you for having me, man. 

59
00:03:10,300 --> 00:03:11,800
It's a pleasure to have you guys
in my space. 

60
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,900
The working really hard on 
creating like an atmosphere here

61
00:03:15,900 --> 00:03:19,100
to make men feel safe and women 
as well to unisex with what we 

62
00:03:19,100 --> 00:03:22,300
do for scalp micropigmentation. 
Which many of you guys watching 

63
00:03:22,300 --> 00:03:26,200
or listening, might not know 
what scalp micropigmentation is 

64
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,000
but it's a hair loss Replacement
Service. 

65
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,300
We do a lot of Of density fill 
work for. 

66
00:03:31,300 --> 00:03:35,300
So if you're thinning or you've 
just got some small patch work 

67
00:03:35,300 --> 00:03:37,400
that you need to work on or ask 
are covering. 

68
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,900
That's what we would do for that
as well as a full hairline 

69
00:03:39,900 --> 00:03:42,200
restoration. 
So they call a Norwood scale, 

70
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:46,200
one through seven, one being, 
just like the progressive male 

71
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,900
pattern baldness like with the 
receding hairline. 

72
00:03:47,900 --> 00:03:49,500
Sure. 
Some spots in the back of your 

73
00:03:49,500 --> 00:03:51,500
crown and then all the way 
through to, like a Norwood 7, 

74
00:03:51,500 --> 00:03:54,200
which would be like, well, we'll
just, we'll just call like the 

75
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,100
mr. 
Clean, look. 

76
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,900
I am Sonia top of the 
cul-de-sac, so we can recreate 

77
00:03:58,900 --> 00:04:01,500
your entire hair line. 
Just resemble like a buzz cut. 

78
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,400
Yeah, I know it's just like a 
nice solution to not having to 

79
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,500
fly to Turkey or spend 20 K yd 
Vancouver Montreal Toronto on a 

80
00:04:07,500 --> 00:04:09,300
hair transplant. 
That may not work is extremely 

81
00:04:09,300 --> 00:04:11,300
invasive. 
So yeah, the black market 

82
00:04:11,300 --> 00:04:14,700
Barbara Co and scalp. 
Micropigmentation studio is here

83
00:04:14,700 --> 00:04:18,100
for men and women. 
Yeah, it started four men in the

84
00:04:18,108 --> 00:04:21,100
community of the Okanagan, 
Kelowna specifically during the 

85
00:04:21,100 --> 00:04:24,700
pandemic plan, demic lockdown. 
So, when that happened, they 

86
00:04:24,700 --> 00:04:26,800
locked the world down. 
And told us we weren't essential

87
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,900
well, every single individual, 
including your dog is. 

88
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,100
Rachel who's to tell? 
You're not right. 

89
00:04:32,100 --> 00:04:33,400
And so that's why we opened up 
the shop. 

90
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,700
Starting my garage and we think 
God have been able to move in 

91
00:04:36,700 --> 00:04:40,100
progress and dial up and dial in
this is where we are now and 

92
00:04:40,300 --> 00:04:42,500
it's a pleasure to have you. 
Oh man, it's this is really, 

93
00:04:42,500 --> 00:04:44,400
really cool. 
I appreciate you giving the kind

94
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,000
of the Coles notes. 
I want to dive deeper into this 

95
00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:50,900
first off, how long you been a 
barber, how long you been into 

96
00:04:50,900 --> 00:04:56,300
into into, you know, men's 
physical wellness, for sure I 

97
00:04:56,300 --> 00:04:59,900
started cutting hair for men in 
my basement, on my days off. 

98
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,600
My time off in Alberta, when I 
was working in Alberta, in two 

99
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,600
thousand twelve to Seventeen. 
I was in Alberta working there, 

100
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,600
specifically am living in 
Alberta. 

101
00:05:08,700 --> 00:05:10,000
Yep. 
And so, I went to college 

102
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,600
University, prior to being in 
Alberta, I study business, 

103
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,700
administration, major marketing,
and then I studied 

104
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,000
Communications with the major in
marketing. 

105
00:05:17,100 --> 00:05:20,000
Yeah, University of Ontario 
Institute of Technology. 

106
00:05:20,100 --> 00:05:22,600
Yeah, so I went to Alberta to 
pay this debt off. 

107
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,200
Then I got trapped in that whole
lifestyle catching that the big 

108
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,100
paychecks. 
Yeah, my trucks and all these 

109
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:29,800
things and I was like this is 
not it. 

110
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,200
If I don't get caught, it's so 
my soul to these. 

111
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:33,900
Only gas companies. 
I need to do something 

112
00:05:33,900 --> 00:05:36,500
differently, you might have 
noticed, just throughout the 

113
00:05:36,500 --> 00:05:38,500
whole shops, lay out their 
skateboards. 

114
00:05:38,500 --> 00:05:40,900
There's bikes. 
Yeah, there's plants. 

115
00:05:40,900 --> 00:05:42,900
I just love art at some 
sneakers. 

116
00:05:42,900 --> 00:05:46,200
I've got a big old sneaker 
heads, or yeah. 

117
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,800
Yeah. 
But most specifically relating 

118
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,700
to the bikes in the skateboard. 
I've been skateboarding 

119
00:05:51,700 --> 00:05:53,800
snowboarding biking since I was 
like nine. 

120
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,500
And so I always planned and 
dreamt of having a skateboard 

121
00:05:56,500 --> 00:05:58,200
shop. 
And you know, there's a lot of 

122
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,700
overhead that's required to own 
a We're chopping the bricks and 

123
00:06:00,707 --> 00:06:02,600
mortar. 
Sure inventory Etc. 

124
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,900
So when I was looking to get out
of oil and gas like that is just

125
00:06:05,900 --> 00:06:08,600
like seems like a very 
challenging angle to start a 

126
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,000
business, a lot of risk involved
which I'm a big risk taker and I

127
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,000
have no problems, you know, 
taking on risk but I wanted a 

128
00:06:16,008 --> 00:06:18,100
solution where I could kind of 
meet in the middle and have a 

129
00:06:18,100 --> 00:06:20,300
service that could provide that 
I could never get taken away 

130
00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:21,900
from me. 
Yeah I always hold that hold 

131
00:06:21,900 --> 00:06:23,500
close to my heart. 
I could travel anywhere around 

132
00:06:23,500 --> 00:06:26,900
the world and use it. 
Yeah but like think Global and 

133
00:06:26,900 --> 00:06:30,800
act local. 
So I wanted to To develop this 

134
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,100
business and brand which was 
barbering and it started small. 

135
00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:37,300
I was working 20 days away and 
10 days off, once I had 

136
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:39,500
purchased my house in Alberta 
estate Kelowna. 

137
00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:41,900
So I purchased the house in 
Kelowna knowing that I was going

138
00:06:41,900 --> 00:06:44,900
to come to the city transition 
out of oil and gas, and become a

139
00:06:44,900 --> 00:06:50,000
barber and open my own Studio. 
The reason why I selected BC and

140
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,700
Kelowna was because in PC 
Kelowna, specific BC specific, 

141
00:06:54,700 --> 00:06:57,300
scuse me, you don't need a 
license to become a hairstylist 

142
00:06:57,300 --> 00:06:58,700
to have to cut her from it, 
okay? 

143
00:06:58,700 --> 00:07:02,100
You can just show up and cut. 
So I was like this is enticing 

144
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:05,000
and encouraging because that 
2728 when I was just getting my 

145
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,500
feet wet with it. 
Yeah I didn't see it feasible to

146
00:07:07,500 --> 00:07:11,100
go back to school to pay the 
cash to do that and there just 

147
00:07:11,100 --> 00:07:14,800
seems some a lot of boundaries 
boundaries tan, chorizo knowing 

148
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,700
that BC, I could just come in, 
jump in and get after it. 

149
00:07:18,700 --> 00:07:21,700
Obviously, following Health 
protocol and striving for 

150
00:07:22,900 --> 00:07:24,600
excellence. 
That was just like the 

151
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,400
framework. 
You just need to follow the 

152
00:07:26,407 --> 00:07:27,800
health regulations and do your 
best. 

153
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,800
And if sure do good work, you 
treat people. 

154
00:07:29,900 --> 00:07:32,000
People, well, that you will come
back. 

155
00:07:32,100 --> 00:07:35,500
And so I work my days off and I 
did that, and that kind of 

156
00:07:35,500 --> 00:07:37,200
transitioned out I can talk 
about what? 

157
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,100
Well, I think, I think it's Jim 
Rohn, who says, you know, you 

158
00:07:39,100 --> 00:07:41,000
feed your family during the day 
and you work on your fortunate 

159
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,400
night and and I think that 
there's a lot of guys out there 

160
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:48,600
who they don't even have the 
energy the vision the foresight 

161
00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:52,400
to you know I mean okay so you 
work in oil and gas you know and

162
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,800
you chase those paychecks and I 
can't tell you how many people I

163
00:07:55,808 --> 00:07:59,800
know that think okay I'm gonna 
go make 180 Grand a year up 

164
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,800
there. 
There and they're going to pay a

165
00:08:00,808 --> 00:08:02,600
lot of my expenses, it's going 
to be great. 

166
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,100
I'm going to set myself up for 
the future and they get caught 

167
00:08:06,100 --> 00:08:09,100
and they start buying these toys
and they get stuck in payments. 

168
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:12,900
And I've met so many people who 
make almost 200 Grand a year 

169
00:08:12,907 --> 00:08:15,600
that are one or two paychecks 
away from bankruptcy because 

170
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,700
they just get so overextended. 
They don't have a plan in place.

171
00:08:18,700 --> 00:08:22,500
They don't have, you know, any 
of these things that we're 

172
00:08:22,500 --> 00:08:26,000
talking about here, you get 
there and you see what your life

173
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,900
is and you realize you don't 
want that for the rest. 

174
00:08:29,900 --> 00:08:33,600
Rest of your life. 
What was it about cutting 

175
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,600
peoples hair? 
You went to the garage and said 

176
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,799
okay, I'm gonna work on my 
fortune at night and your 

177
00:08:38,799 --> 00:08:41,400
fortune had nothing to do with 
money and had to do with what 

178
00:08:41,500 --> 00:08:43,000
life was going to look like for 
you. 

179
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,400
And what it was, what I filled 
your cup when enjoy it. 

180
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,100
What is that? 
What is where is this is Passion

181
00:08:47,100 --> 00:08:50,000
over paychecks, passion, over 
paychecks or paychecks. 

182
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,600
So that's like it's on me 
forever and it's in me forever. 

183
00:08:53,900 --> 00:08:57,000
So that was the driving force 
was the passion over paychecks. 

184
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,500
How did that become your 
passion? 

185
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,100
I'm super curious about the 
Shit, you asking me that it 

186
00:09:01,100 --> 00:09:05,500
never was known to me, that 
dealing with men, cutting hair 

187
00:09:05,500 --> 00:09:09,100
for men, working with men, 
self-image to be passion of 

188
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:11,100
mine. 
Yeah, I just always loved music,

189
00:09:11,100 --> 00:09:15,000
culture art and fashion and to 
be frank, I actually got 

190
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,000
incredibly inspired by one of my
new best friends. 

191
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,900
Well, new since 2019 Scott 
Ramos, his Instagram handles at 

192
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:26,300
f8 MOS famous One the most 
recognized Barbers on the 

193
00:09:26,300 --> 00:09:27,100
planet. 
Yep. 

194
00:09:27,100 --> 00:09:29,400
And became one of the most 
inviting human beings I've ever 

195
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,100
met. 
Yet. 

196
00:09:30,300 --> 00:09:32,700
So when I traveled with this, 
give me a little bit of jumping 

197
00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:35,000
around and jump around, man. 
We're yeah, we're good. 

198
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,700
Thank you. 
So in 2019 once I quit the oil 

199
00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:39,700
and gas industry, one side 
already bought my house and 

200
00:09:39,700 --> 00:09:41,800
clone it and I had an 
apprenticeship lined up in the 

201
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,700
city. 
I took a break from the 

202
00:09:43,708 --> 00:09:46,800
apprenticeship in the city and 
flew directly to Montreal, I 

203
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,700
trained there for six weeks with
all of the guys that Scott Ramos

204
00:09:49,700 --> 00:09:51,800
had actually trained years 
prior. 

205
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,400
Okay, and then I got connected 
to Scott through his Network 

206
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,700
that I was already training 
with. 

207
00:09:55,700 --> 00:09:58,500
So I flew from Montreal Sunni, 
Winnipeg to Montreal. 

208
00:09:58,500 --> 00:10:01,400
Yeah, it was Scott. 
Reversing back to where the 

209
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,600
started. 
I was really inspired by Scott 

210
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,200
and the culture that he from 
afar at that point, far. 

211
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,300
It was, isn't it cool that you 
can now say that the people that

212
00:10:09,300 --> 00:10:12,500
you were inspired by you're now 
connected to? 

213
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,200
And I think is a lot of guys out
there who are inspired by people

214
00:10:15,500 --> 00:10:18,300
and you realize, I apologize for
interrupting, but I think it's 

215
00:10:18,300 --> 00:10:20,900
really important point that 
sometimes you can actually 

216
00:10:20,900 --> 00:10:24,000
admire somebody from afar for 
only a couple degrees away. 

217
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,900
From anybody on this planet. 
You can actually move your world

218
00:10:27,900 --> 00:10:30,300
closer to some of these other 
people's worlds and And the fact

219
00:10:30,300 --> 00:10:33,900
that you have done that from 
back to where you're about to 

220
00:10:33,908 --> 00:10:36,700
talk about beforehand, like that
is really, really cool that you 

221
00:10:36,700 --> 00:10:38,900
ended up there. 
So that's rash it that. 

222
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:42,800
Yeah, I just kind of found out 
young in life that and it's 

223
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,000
worked with. 
I've worked with this and 

224
00:10:44,008 --> 00:10:46,400
against this it's kind of funny.
I think we all can expect to 

225
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,400
this, you know, something true 
to your heart. 

226
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,300
Yeah. 
And you forget about it at times

227
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,900
but I want me to speak on is 
manifesting manifesting in 

228
00:10:53,900 --> 00:10:56,700
generating. 
So I just recognize that I can 

229
00:10:56,700 --> 00:10:58,700
literally. 
And if I look back and even the 

230
00:10:58,700 --> 00:11:01,800
shittiest times in my life, 
Manifested all of those exact 

231
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,800
moments, I literally had seen 
them all in my mind. 

232
00:11:04,300 --> 00:11:07,700
So I manifested the ability to 
meet Scott and get connected to 

233
00:11:07,700 --> 00:11:11,300
him and the whole team that was 
near and dear to his heart and 

234
00:11:11,300 --> 00:11:14,900
the people that he helped and it
all just came to fruition, 

235
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,700
there's so much more to the 
story and all just comes down to

236
00:11:17,700 --> 00:11:20,100
just, like, follow your heart. 
Follow Your Passion, believe in 

237
00:11:20,100 --> 00:11:21,000
yourself. 
Yeah. 

238
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,200
And taking each small step every
day, one percent a day to get 

239
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:28,200
better. 
And I found out that working 

240
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,800
with men, men, self-image, In 
that fashion and art was a 

241
00:11:32,808 --> 00:11:36,900
passion of mine just from 
actually getting my feet wet and

242
00:11:36,900 --> 00:11:38,900
my hands dirty in that mix? 
Yeah. 

243
00:11:38,900 --> 00:11:42,300
So I was working well and gas 
for six years seven years before

244
00:11:42,300 --> 00:11:44,300
that, I was just like a kind of 
a punk skater. 

245
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,600
I worked a bunch of different 
jobs but fighting some weed 

246
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,700
doing drugs all this bullshit. 
That's no good. 

247
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:53,600
Yep, so when I got to oil and 
gas I kind of clean my shit up. 

248
00:11:53,700 --> 00:11:55,500
I paid off the seventy thousand 
dollar debt from College 

249
00:11:55,500 --> 00:11:58,800
University fell in love, bought 
a truck and then I was like okay

250
00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,100
these are all amazing. 
Things, but I see on this 

251
00:12:02,100 --> 00:12:04,800
Instagram world people living at
much different lifestyle. 

252
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:09,000
They're not slaving their hours 
away to somebody else they're 

253
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,700
putting in. 
Like, countless hours for 

254
00:12:10,700 --> 00:12:13,700
themselves for their own passion
for their own vision for the 

255
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:16,200
future. 
So I started setting up how old 

256
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,700
were you when that started? 
This would have been 2016. 

257
00:12:19,700 --> 00:12:22,700
It's now 2022. 
I'm 34 today, my birthday. 

258
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:24,400
So your late 20s. 
Yeah. 

259
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,500
And you're realizing your kind 
of waking up a little bit and 

260
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:31,000
saying, now this isn't the life 
that I was, Told to live for 

261
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,100
lack of a better term because a 
lot of guys those guys in their 

262
00:12:34,100 --> 00:12:37,700
40s right now who are still in 
the Trap of doing what they were

263
00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:41,700
told to do, you know, get the 
good job, the family do all they

264
00:12:41,700 --> 00:12:43,300
get the house and all that stuff
and one day, you'll be 

265
00:12:43,300 --> 00:12:45,300
fulfilled. 
Many of these fuckers are 

266
00:12:45,300 --> 00:12:48,700
sitting there unfulfilled going.
When is it coming for sure? 

267
00:12:48,700 --> 00:12:51,500
When it's the self-exploration 
that needs to happen for you to 

268
00:12:51,500 --> 00:12:53,700
realize this stuff in your late 
20s? 

269
00:12:53,700 --> 00:12:57,600
You started realizing that you 
wanted something different. 

270
00:12:57,700 --> 00:12:59,700
Absolutely. 
So I had this small Exit Plan 

271
00:12:59,900 --> 00:13:02,300
Kind of lined up and it was to 
get out of oil and gas directly 

272
00:13:02,300 --> 00:13:05,100
in the field and transition 
transition into office. 

273
00:13:05,100 --> 00:13:07,100
So, as I mentioned, I studied 
business administration kind of 

274
00:13:07,100 --> 00:13:09,700
fluffy major in marketing and 
then I studied communication 

275
00:13:09,700 --> 00:13:13,300
with a major in Marketing sales.
Yeah, you can't study Marketing 

276
00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:15,500
sales, like this is this is you 
got to be in the mix. 

277
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,000
Yeah. 
So like I just kind of had a 

278
00:13:17,008 --> 00:13:21,900
knack for communication and I 
have a drive to be successful 

279
00:13:21,900 --> 00:13:23,600
and I speak with emphasis and 
passion. 

280
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,400
So like the guys, I work with in
the field, recognize this I 

281
00:13:26,408 --> 00:13:29,300
spoke on my educational history 
and like what I want to do with 

282
00:13:29,300 --> 00:13:31,500
my life, Life. 
So I painted a picture for my 

283
00:13:31,500 --> 00:13:34,700
exit out of the patch in the 
field and transition into the 

284
00:13:34,708 --> 00:13:36,000
office. 
Now, when you say you painted a 

285
00:13:36,008 --> 00:13:38,300
picture like are you talking, 
you Journal, dish it out and you

286
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:42,200
actually made a plan. 
I wasn't something in your head 

287
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,600
that you didn't existence with 
the team that was part of 

288
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,100
precision while servicing, who I
worked for? 

289
00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:48,700
Yeah, I made it known dairies 
manager operations manager that 

290
00:13:48,700 --> 00:13:51,900
like, hey, I'm here to work for 
the next few years, but I, this 

291
00:13:51,900 --> 00:13:54,200
is where I'm going to go and you
can like, jump on board with 

292
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,100
that and help me as I help you, 
or I'm going to have to find a 

293
00:13:57,108 --> 00:13:59,400
new way. 
And so, in 2016, they gave me an

294
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,500
opportunity To go be a junior 
sales student. 

295
00:14:02,500 --> 00:14:05,900
If you will or rep with the team
downtown Calgary within the 

296
00:14:05,900 --> 00:14:07,700
company that you were. 
Yeah, work out. 

297
00:14:07,700 --> 00:14:09,900
Oh, that is awesome. 
Go sell oil and gas Services 

298
00:14:09,900 --> 00:14:14,600
specifically to cold tubing, you
know, fracking well, cleanouts. 

299
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,200
All the good stuff that I had 
experienced in the field. 

300
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:17,900
I would have went out and sold 
those things. 

301
00:14:17,900 --> 00:14:20,700
We got team, but that was the 
year that the oil and gas 

302
00:14:20,700 --> 00:14:22,200
industry. 
Absolutely got decimated. 

303
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,000
So, we went from $130, a barrel 
down to like 22 or something and

304
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,500
that job, just evaporated. 
And that exact moment when that 

305
00:14:29,500 --> 00:14:33,200
job opportunity of operators 
like, okay, I'm not gonna rely 

306
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,600
on oil and gas or anyone else to
figure out what the hell man do.

307
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,300
So, for the future, and I was 
like, I just I knew I needed a 

308
00:14:39,308 --> 00:14:41,000
new way and I was watching his 
Dimension. 

309
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,200
Scott Ramos in the rest of the 
barber culture come up. 

310
00:14:43,700 --> 00:14:46,100
As I'm going to own a Harley. 
I'm an old, my own shop and we 

311
00:14:46,100 --> 00:14:48,600
happily married and I'm gonna 
have my own, my own vision for 

312
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,100
the future in Kelowna because I 
told you did a bit of research 

313
00:14:51,100 --> 00:14:54,200
and all these things on that and
I bought a chair Barber chair 

314
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:58,000
used from Rocky Mountain House, 
Alberta bought a tool 

315
00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,700
battlespace summer like the one 
behind us. 

316
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,100
Yeah but a random light that 
just made it. 

317
00:15:02,100 --> 00:15:05,200
Horrible lighting but I did it 
and I got them. 

318
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,800
The tools went on YouTube and 
the rest was history. 

319
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,500
I see that that very first night
that I ever cut hair. 

320
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,200
I had lucid dreams for two weeks
every single night after and 

321
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,900
that's when I knew like it was 
like my higher self or 

322
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:20,200
Consciousness or God or someone 
just like dude, you cannot 

323
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,800
Overlook what you've just found.
Like you have to push towards 

324
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:28,700
that and that's a never look 
back when I mean, I can speak 

325
00:15:28,700 --> 00:15:32,900
from experience of Myself and 
others present company included.

326
00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:36,300
Now, talking about that there is
no Harmony like the harmony of 

327
00:15:36,300 --> 00:15:39,500
when you're doing what you're 
supposed to be doing and I mean 

328
00:15:39,500 --> 00:15:41,700
we talk a lot about purpose on 
this on this show. 

329
00:15:42,300 --> 00:15:45,200
He changed it as all about 
helping guys figure out what 

330
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,800
their purpose is. 
Waking up, not being in the Rut,

331
00:15:47,900 --> 00:15:51,300
the tunnel vision of just you 
know plodding through life. 

332
00:15:51,300 --> 00:15:54,100
But actually getting some 
awareness about this shit. 

333
00:15:54,300 --> 00:15:56,300
And when you have some of that 
awareness in your in your 

334
00:15:56,300 --> 00:16:02,200
searching and and and and part 
of the Destination shows up like

335
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,200
that first night really at the 
end of the day, that first 

336
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,400
night, you cut hair, it was the 
beginning of a bunch of shit. 

337
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,400
You have to go through to get 
where you want to get to it. 

338
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:14,900
Yeah but the harmony of that 
experience though, my God, what 

339
00:16:14,900 --> 00:16:17,700
a feeling, it was cool man. 
I got me hyped and I couldn't 

340
00:16:17,700 --> 00:16:20,900
stop thinking about it and all I
from there, this was in the 

341
00:16:20,900 --> 00:16:23,500
basement, in the Holmen, black 
balls, Alberta, this is before 

342
00:16:23,500 --> 00:16:26,100
Colonna. 
So, at that very moment in time,

343
00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:28,900
I was like, okay, we're going on
canva or whatever the app was 

344
00:16:28,900 --> 00:16:31,200
that I used to do. 
I'll Picard and I called the 

345
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,900
basement Barbershop and I went 
out to the bars and wherever I 

346
00:16:34,908 --> 00:16:38,700
needed to go to meet with men 
and women because I, every girl 

347
00:16:38,700 --> 00:16:40,900
knows a guy has a brother. 
Has a dad, are you go? 

348
00:16:40,900 --> 00:16:44,300
Yeah, I hustled, bro, because I 
know I used to, you know, hustle

349
00:16:44,300 --> 00:16:46,100
in a different way. 
And this is like, it's just 

350
00:16:46,100 --> 00:16:48,400
ingrained in me the 
communication that you need to 

351
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,300
have, and like, just have a even
just marginal amounts of 

352
00:16:51,300 --> 00:16:54,500
communication and confidence in 
yourself to just look someone in

353
00:16:54,500 --> 00:16:56,400
the eyes. 
Tell them about who you are, and

354
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,600
let them know what you can 
offer, or how you can help. 

355
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,700
And speaks out with conviction 
and truth and the rest is going 

356
00:17:02,700 --> 00:17:04,500
to be this unfold for you. 
And of course, I got to ask you 

357
00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:05,099
this question. 
Okay? 

358
00:17:05,099 --> 00:17:07,800
So so you're working up north 
clearly got some game when it 

359
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,599
comes to work ethic and there's 
a type of hustle you're busting 

360
00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:14,200
your ass for oil and gas. 
Especially, you know, when it 

361
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,500
when it's time to work, is under
words and there's downtime, but 

362
00:17:16,500 --> 00:17:18,200
when it's time to work, it's 
time to work and you're 

363
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,099
hustling. 
Okay, hustling make 150 200 

364
00:17:21,099 --> 00:17:22,700
Grand a year, right? 
Yes. 

365
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,800
That's one version of hustling, 
but when you start hustling for 

366
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,000
your dream, making zero dollars 
going out to the bars and all of

367
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,100
that. 
That kind of stuff. 

368
00:17:31,100 --> 00:17:33,200
Tell me the difference between 
those types of hustling. 

369
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,000
Like it's almost like one is 
dead and one is alive when 

370
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,800
you're hustling for your dreams 
even if you're not making 

371
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,900
anything from it, if you're 
hustling from your your dream. 

372
00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:42,300
Yeah. 
How good does that feel? 

373
00:17:42,300 --> 00:17:45,200
And how much energy does it 
actually give you to hustle on 

374
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,700
the other side of things while 
you're trying to figure it out? 

375
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:48,900
Yeah. 
Like they used to their watch 

376
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:52,700
energies and give you kids like 
the hustle to work in the patch.

377
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,500
It is you got to have it. 
Yeah. 

378
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,300
And it's just like mental 
toughness and angst like you Got

379
00:18:00,300 --> 00:18:02,700
to be able to stand up for what 
you believe in and you know, 

380
00:18:02,700 --> 00:18:04,700
that you got to do what you got 
to do to get that paycheck. 

381
00:18:04,700 --> 00:18:07,000
But when it comes to like 
pushing through your passion and

382
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,100
what you want for the future, 
just taking those small steps 

383
00:18:11,100 --> 00:18:14,100
forward will actually give you 
more energy back because if 

384
00:18:14,100 --> 00:18:16,100
they're in alignment with what 
you truly need to do and we want

385
00:18:16,100 --> 00:18:19,200
to be this like in a line with 
your heart and soul, man, it 

386
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,700
just starts to fill you up. 
So every day working the patch I

387
00:18:22,700 --> 00:18:26,500
had to make sure I ate properly.
I slept properly I journaled and

388
00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:29,600
I like meditated because that 
need I needed that Clarity that 

389
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,900
downtime. 
And that those nutrients to just

390
00:18:32,500 --> 00:18:34,800
get through it. 
But whereas, if you're working 

391
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,100
for yourself, and it's in 
alignment with your purpose, or 

392
00:18:38,100 --> 00:18:41,500
what you believe to be, you 
might not even eat that day. 

393
00:18:41,500 --> 00:18:43,600
If you're grinding. 
Yeah, like you're just forget 

394
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,000
that shit you. 
You just keep going. 

395
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,000
Like it's and I you know I can I
can I can talk about this a 

396
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,200
little bit. 
I've had that experience to 

397
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:52,900
where I had a job that was 
paying the bills and I started 

398
00:18:52,900 --> 00:18:55,600
building something on the side 
and and building it up and and 

399
00:18:55,608 --> 00:18:59,000
the other part of it, too. 
When I would compare myself to 

400
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,500
people that I worked, People who
didn't have that, they were 

401
00:19:03,500 --> 00:19:07,200
still in those, you know, in 
that in that, call it a rut, 

402
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,700
but, you know tunnel vision. 
Yeah, tell me. 

403
00:19:08,700 --> 00:19:10,700
Now, they're just, they're just 
doing that, right? 

404
00:19:10,900 --> 00:19:13,800
And I thought about how much I 
almost got to the point where I 

405
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,000
pity the people around me. 
I had empathy for them because 

406
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,700
they had no hope for anything. 
I at least knew that I was doing

407
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:22,500
something that was going to get 
me to escape 100%. 

408
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:25,000
We're at where I was, and it 
gave me that extra fuel. 

409
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,600
Like I said, that thing to look 
forward to, I can speak to that 

410
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,200
and I can definitely see that in
the back of my mind. 

411
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,300
Like when I reflect on when I 
was out, Out there swinging 

412
00:19:31,300 --> 00:19:33,100
Hammers and picking up line pipe
and working. 

413
00:19:33,100 --> 00:19:35,700
With the biggest assholes in the
planet that are miserable like, 

414
00:19:35,700 --> 00:19:38,200
I just do what the smile on my 
face because I was like, dude, I

415
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,800
literally know that you're going
to be here in six years and you 

416
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,700
can still be the biggest piece 
of dog shit ever. 

417
00:19:45,700 --> 00:20:01,800
God bless you but I won't. 
There is rest days because we 

418
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,300
had to force by law after like 
20 days had to take them. 

419
00:20:04,900 --> 00:20:08,600
But I was out in Grand Prairie 
on the sticks, working for Seven

420
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,500
Generations, oil and gas company
producer. 

421
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,400
I was new to the matter. 
I worked those days men non-stop

422
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,700
every day back to back to back 
to back just to buy my house and

423
00:20:17,700 --> 00:20:21,200
cola and then once I got that, 
it's the next one. 

424
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,500
And it's the next one. 
You just have to keep seeing 

425
00:20:23,500 --> 00:20:26,000
then gold know where you're 
going and Vie bohème just push 

426
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:27,800
out. 
That's awesome, man. 

427
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,500
I want to ask more about that 
first haircut, that night. 

428
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,200
Because, I mean, you talk about 
what it did for you, the lucid 

429
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,300
dreams and all that stuff going.
Okay, Yep, this is it, this is 

430
00:20:36,300 --> 00:20:39,300
in line, it wasn't just a pipe 
dream, all the work and 

431
00:20:39,308 --> 00:20:43,900
everything all that, thought led
to this moment, it's what I 

432
00:20:43,900 --> 00:20:45,200
want. 
Now the real work is going to 

433
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,700
begin, but I got to ask that 
question about that night. 

434
00:20:48,500 --> 00:20:49,800
Remember what kind of haircut? 
It was? 

435
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:54,800
Yeah, I think they call it. 
I'm never uses description 

436
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,700
because it's like so create 
Clips. 

437
00:20:56,700 --> 00:21:01,600
But Caesar cut the Caesar got 
like the Well dude, like like 

438
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,600
like, like like I don't even use
this term so like I'll just use 

439
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,900
it in reference sure. 
Because she told my buddy's 

440
00:21:07,300 --> 00:21:10,000
sister was a hair stylist. 
Okay, me to one hour classes and

441
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,000
that night was a one-hour class,
get the hair wet. 

442
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:15,700
Move it in the direction that it
wants to lay here likes to live.

443
00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:18,800
They lay where it lives. 
It didn't make sense to me, but 

444
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,000
I got it wet and I would just 
move hair and I look okay wants 

445
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,800
to go that way. 
Wants to go this way but the 

446
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:24,900
Caesar cut that she just said 
she explained to me. 

447
00:21:24,900 --> 00:21:27,600
And by definition was just like 
a number three or number two, 

448
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,400
all the way up and then scissor 
work on top. 

449
00:21:30,700 --> 00:21:32,900
Line it up, that's it. 
Okay. 

450
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,200
I could be wrong. 
Correct me if I'm wrong and 

451
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,000
stylus Barbers out there. 
I don't fuck with that name. 

452
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,200
I just cut hair. 
Sure it by description of what 

453
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,600
you want to see what you do. 
And we kind of finesse the cut 

454
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,100
made fade low fade, high and 
tight. 

455
00:21:44,100 --> 00:21:46,800
Those are descriptions that I 
would use the men's classic cut 

456
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,400
scissor. 
We describe what you want to see

457
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,900
ya, a scissor cut. 
I never understood that. 

458
00:21:51,500 --> 00:21:53,200
You guys can keep that term and 
use it of Great Clips. 

459
00:21:53,300 --> 00:22:00,000
Sure. 
Do you remember the reaction of 

460
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,400
the guy? 
Who was you're willing guinea 

461
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,200
pig that night? 
Do you remember the like or 

462
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,000
shortly after like as you 
started in the basement because 

463
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:09,400
you're living your life's 
purpose. 

464
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:15,400
Right now, an extra part of that
purpose is a guy who walks in 

465
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,600
may be feeling a certain way and
when they walk out there feeling

466
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,300
a completely different way and I
don't know if that happened that

467
00:22:21,300 --> 00:22:24,600
first night where you got to 
feel that part of what it is 

468
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,000
that you do. 
Yeah. 

469
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:27,900
But that happened right away. 
It did happen that night. 

470
00:22:27,900 --> 00:22:30,400
Okay. 
I mean I know that I'm a slow 

471
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:31,700
learner. 
Learn in different ways and but 

472
00:22:31,700 --> 00:22:34,500
like, and I'm definitely not the
best barber in the city. 

473
00:22:34,500 --> 00:22:36,900
There's so much talent here, but
I'm my best barber. 

474
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,800
I'm the best that I can be and I
continue to strive to be better,

475
00:22:40,100 --> 00:22:42,900
and that's what I did that. 
Did that night, I just naturally

476
00:22:42,900 --> 00:22:45,900
had like the motion that 
confidence. 

477
00:22:45,900 --> 00:22:48,300
I kind of just faked it until I 
made it right away like 

478
00:22:48,300 --> 00:22:51,100
instantly. 
I was like shaking my boots but 

479
00:22:51,100 --> 00:22:53,700
not literally shaking, which was
huge because if I was shaking 

480
00:22:53,700 --> 00:22:55,000
when I was working. 
Yeah, no, no, no. 

481
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,500
That was, you know, yeah, yeah, 
yeah, I hid that shaking on the 

482
00:22:57,500 --> 00:22:58,900
inside. 
Yeah, he did that pretty well 

483
00:22:58,900 --> 00:23:03,700
and it just Envision how I 
wanted to cut to be at the end 

484
00:23:03,700 --> 00:23:05,500
of it. 
And then I took her information 

485
00:23:05,500 --> 00:23:10,600
and her to her tips and her a 
pointers and I just went with 

486
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,700
it. 
Followed suit, ask for help when

487
00:23:12,700 --> 00:23:16,300
I was needed, believe in myself 
and homie was stoked, man. 

488
00:23:16,300 --> 00:23:17,800
Isn't that life right there? 
It was cool. 

489
00:23:17,900 --> 00:23:20,900
Like the idea, you know, asking 
for help taking the tips from 

490
00:23:20,900 --> 00:23:24,000
people you know, with people 
smarter than us so many times, 

491
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,400
we don't were not vulnerable 
have to do that kind of stuff. 

492
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,200
But I mean, when you want 
something bad enough, yeah. 

493
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,200
You know, be a student of the 
game and just Immerse yourself 

494
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,400
in the process, right? 
If you like, 100%, Amen to that.

495
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:39,000
Like, some people are ashamed. 
To be a student, you're going to

496
00:23:39,008 --> 00:23:40,100
be a student to the day, you're 
dying. 

497
00:23:40,100 --> 00:23:42,800
If you're not, like, I don't 
know what you're doing, because 

498
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,600
really, I think awareness comes 
when you recognize that you 

499
00:23:45,608 --> 00:23:46,600
don't know. 
Shit. 

500
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,100
Yeah. 
So if you just keep asking 

501
00:23:49,100 --> 00:23:52,200
questions, looking for advice 
guidance, then that's huge. 

502
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,300
You don't want to be trying to 
have someone Hold Your Hand the 

503
00:23:54,308 --> 00:23:56,000
whole time and I find myself 
coming in out of that. 

504
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,900
And a lot of different ways in 
my life, like I ask for help 

505
00:23:58,900 --> 00:24:01,000
when I need it. 
And then I'll just Almost be 

506
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,100
like a kind of accustomed to 
that bit of a spot like padding 

507
00:24:04,100 --> 00:24:06,000
like that, you know, and you're 
like baby and someone else you 

508
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,800
can do it. 
I'm always kind of looking for 

509
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,500
that but like the growth comes 
when you step away from that and

510
00:24:10,500 --> 00:24:12,600
be like cavemen I've gotten my 
ass padded. 

511
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,200
A few fucking times here. 
Let's dive deep. 

512
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,500
You know, like it's up to you. 
Now, when you go to bail, you 

513
00:24:17,500 --> 00:24:18,600
learn how to fall. 
Yep. 

514
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,400
And you learn how to get up and 
dust it off and get back up and 

515
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,800
so it's just it doesn't stop 
being the same. 

516
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,700
Doesn't go know there's like 
that one week for five years old

517
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:31,500
and it's still like that. 
But so many times we We load it 

518
00:24:31,500 --> 00:24:34,000
with with all sorts of whatever 
it might be might be childhood. 

519
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,100
Trauma might be, might be when 
we fell off the bike when we 

520
00:24:36,100 --> 00:24:39,100
were a kid and we take that shit
to us when we're at when we're 

521
00:24:39,100 --> 00:24:43,000
adults and and we don't 
naturally think that actually 

522
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,900
dealing with recognizing and 
fighting your way through that 

523
00:24:46,100 --> 00:24:51,500
leads to Joy and and vibrancy 
that you don't, you don't 

524
00:24:51,500 --> 00:24:54,100
realize is there but it's so 
worth doing. 

525
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,600
Yeah, man, I just absolutely 
sure it's a vape. 

526
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,900
Absolutely. 
Um, 9th scene, it's not. 

527
00:25:02,900 --> 00:25:05,200
It's just nicotine. 
All right, you do what you got 

528
00:25:05,208 --> 00:25:06,000
to do, man. 
Appreciate it. 

529
00:25:06,008 --> 00:25:07,100
It's all good. 
Thank you. 

530
00:25:07,100 --> 00:25:09,500
Yeah, we don't we don't judge 
here on he casts. 

531
00:25:10,500 --> 00:25:15,500
No Man II appreciate you talking
about that and how you got into 

532
00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:17,200
it. 
Now, I think it's safe to say 

533
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:21,400
the audience can translate the 
fact that you are doing what 

534
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,500
you're supposed to be doing and 
you love your in Harmony, and 

535
00:25:25,500 --> 00:25:27,500
your vibration is exactly where 
it needs to be. 

536
00:25:27,500 --> 00:25:30,100
If you want to talk to 
hippy-dippy language that that 

537
00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:31,600
so much. 
It was so many of us talk these 

538
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,400
days, you are in your report. 
You living your purpose. 

539
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,200
Yeah, that's real shit. 
That's not a hippie shit. 

540
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,300
Yeah. 
Okay let There we go. 

541
00:25:37,300 --> 00:25:39,100
It's not at all the blue collar 
guy. 

542
00:25:39,100 --> 00:25:40,600
A former Blue Collar Guy saying 
this. 

543
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,600
It's not okay, what? 
What? 

544
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:47,300
Look around man, there's nothing
but flowers positivity, lots of 

545
00:25:47,300 --> 00:25:49,400
natural light. 
If you look over there, like, 

546
00:25:49,500 --> 00:25:52,400
I'm wearing a cross. 
I'm Christian but like I believe

547
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,100
in energy. 
Overall energy is everything and

548
00:25:56,100 --> 00:26:00,200
energy is we're all energy. 
Yeah and so with that said this 

549
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,800
hippie What about energy? 
You got to bring your frequency 

550
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,800
up and make sure that you 
maintain that in order for you 

551
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:11,200
to receive the blessings and 
just manifestations power. 

552
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:12,700
You know. 
Like if you want to have 

553
00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:15,000
positivity in your life you need
to exude positivity. 

554
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,000
How do you get that? 
Typically speaking for me, I 

555
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,500
have to put in work with my body
and with my mind, so meditation 

556
00:26:22,500 --> 00:26:25,500
and and physical efforts in the 
morning and getting the meals in

557
00:26:25,500 --> 00:26:28,700
the water and then my actual 
frequency for my body. 

558
00:26:28,700 --> 00:26:32,800
And my mind is, I'm just What do
you call that a radio signal 

559
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,500
Tower? 
Like it's just setting it out 

560
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:37,300
and it's coming back to me. 
But one year on a low frequency 

561
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:41,100
low plane Pardon me all you're 
going to bring in to you is 

562
00:26:41,700 --> 00:26:44,200
anything that's on that 
frequency. 

563
00:26:44,500 --> 00:26:47,700
You get back what you put out. 
So if you're not vibing, hi, 

564
00:26:47,900 --> 00:26:49,700
you're going to be vibin low, 
bro. 

565
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,300
Yeah, well, and we talked about 
that, you know, that's a five 

566
00:26:52,300 --> 00:26:55,200
fitnesses with, he changed it, 
you know, your physical fitness,

567
00:26:55,200 --> 00:27:01,000
your mental, your Social Fitness
and you know, the other one, the

568
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,300
sole Fitness is in their social 
as well. 

569
00:27:04,300 --> 00:27:07,200
And I mean, these are all, they 
all need to work in harmony with

570
00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,500
each other your sole Fitness. 
It's not about religion, it's 

571
00:27:10,500 --> 00:27:13,300
not about one thing overnight. 
It's about getting in that place

572
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,400
of what feels exactly right 
where you are vibing High where 

573
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:22,500
you are attracting you know, not
detracting and and I think 

574
00:27:22,500 --> 00:27:26,100
that's a real secret that a lot 
of guys don't necessarily focus 

575
00:27:26,100 --> 00:27:28,100
on you, talk about journaling 
everyday, you talk about 

576
00:27:28,100 --> 00:27:31,300
manifesting and and and thinking
about the things, the direction 

577
00:27:31,300 --> 00:27:32,900
that you want your life to go 
in? 

578
00:27:32,900 --> 00:27:34,500
Yeah, a lot of guys just don't 
do that. 

579
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,900
Yeah, I think they say they one 
person. 

580
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,800
No, 3% of the world, right? 
It's down their goals, everyday,

581
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,500
and 1% of the world writes down 
their goals and reads it right. 

582
00:27:44,500 --> 00:27:46,800
Something goes and reads it and 
then audio listens it back. 

583
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,900
So we'll record it and they'll 
play it back themselves. 

584
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:50,600
A lot of will even listen to 
their sleep. 

585
00:27:51,100 --> 00:27:53,200
So to have a plan in place, and 
then I think it's called 

586
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,400
autosuggestion. 
If I'm not mistaken, you're 

587
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,700
writing it down. 
I am so happy and grateful for 

588
00:27:58,700 --> 00:28:00,700
the abundance of my life. 
I'm so happy and grateful for my

589
00:28:00,700 --> 00:28:03,000
business having expanded. 
I'm so happy and grateful for 

590
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,500
whatever the case may be. 
And then reading it back to 

591
00:28:05,508 --> 00:28:09,600
yourself and doing this daily. 
It's that's like a We're so 

592
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,400
we'll call it a cheat code. 
Yeah. 

593
00:28:11,500 --> 00:28:12,800
Like that's the heck, yeah it 
is. 

594
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,500
Definite total like heck. 
Yeah. 1000% and yeah, like 

595
00:28:17,300 --> 00:28:20,600
energy doesn't lie and energy is
Everything, is Everything 

596
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:21,800
essentially? 
So you know what I mean? 

597
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,500
When you're vibing low you're 
going to bring in low Vibes back

598
00:28:24,500 --> 00:28:28,100
to you and the hives up, they 
bring jobs back to you so it 

599
00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:29,700
doesn't matter if you're 
Christian Hindu, whatever the 

600
00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:32,700
case may be, these are all dis 
High vibrant, High vibrational 

601
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,900
thought process and actions and 
feelings at all or uncompressed 

602
00:28:35,900 --> 00:28:39,100
encompassing of our daily lives.
So if you look at it can hinder 

603
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:40,400
Ooh, or Buddhist versus a 
Christian. 

604
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,500
Like, as long as their hives are
giving to others. 

605
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:46,100
They're treating themselves with
respect, they're meditating and 

606
00:28:46,100 --> 00:28:47,700
they're eating good W. 
Like they're just doing the 

607
00:28:47,700 --> 00:28:49,800
right things, they're all living
up. 

608
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,200
Guess what's gonna happen with 
their life? 

609
00:28:51,300 --> 00:28:52,900
Yeah. 
Hundred more often than not more

610
00:28:52,900 --> 00:28:54,600
often than not. 
That's just what happens, right?

611
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,800
The blessings will just start 
coming and and and luck you know

612
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,600
a luck know you end up making 
your own luck when you're when 

613
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,900
you're vibing like that and 
you're and you're living like 

614
00:29:02,900 --> 00:29:04,800
that. 
You end up making your own luck.

615
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:09,100
Has nothing to do with with it. 
I want to go back now to the 

616
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,200
Like that, you have, you know, 
gotten to this place, where 

617
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,300
you're doing this, you've 
created a space that you've 

618
00:29:14,300 --> 00:29:15,900
wanted to create. 
We're not working for somebody 

619
00:29:15,900 --> 00:29:17,700
else. 
You've got other parts of your 

620
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:19,400
business that are growing. 
I want to talk about the scalp 

621
00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:23,400
stuff in a second here because 
because again, a pain point for 

622
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,600
men is our self-image. 
Yes. 

623
00:29:26,700 --> 00:29:30,100
And we don't talk about it very 
much and and and now you've got 

624
00:29:30,100 --> 00:29:32,300
years of experience under your 
belt, you've built the launching

625
00:29:32,300 --> 00:29:38,400
pad of where you're going and 
and I'm very curious to know 

626
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,100
your perspective. 
Give after how many thousands of

627
00:29:41,500 --> 00:29:44,600
cuts and styles and things that 
you've done for men. 

628
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,400
Are there any patterns that you 
see? 

629
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,500
Do you ever see you guy who 
comes in and they're not feeling

630
00:29:49,500 --> 00:29:52,100
very good about themselves and 
you can kind of manipulate that 

631
00:29:52,100 --> 00:29:55,700
a little bit and send them out. 
Are there patterns like can you 

632
00:29:55,700 --> 00:29:59,600
speak to that the idea of this? 
For sure, there's a lot of 

633
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,900
transfer energy in this job 
which I didn't really recognize 

634
00:30:02,900 --> 00:30:06,500
and wasn't aware of. 
So like if I'm not having a the 

635
00:30:06,500 --> 00:30:09,000
best day if I didn't prepare my 
day accordingly, if I would 

636
00:30:09,300 --> 00:30:14,100
Started my day hung over or 
having had a nasty fight with 

637
00:30:14,100 --> 00:30:17,600
who ever in my life that's going
to spill over onto my clients. 

638
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,000
They're going to feel that 
energy soon as I walked through 

639
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,800
the door especially if they're 
an empath. 

640
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,600
And like, I'm a very emotional, 
I'm a communicator through my 

641
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,700
body language, through my tone 
of voice through, like, you can 

642
00:30:29,700 --> 00:30:31,800
just like, see Tommy if I'm high
or if I'm low. 

643
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:33,200
Yeah. 
And so, with that said, if I'm 

644
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,500
not on my best a game then 
that's going to transfer over to

645
00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:39,000
them, they're not going to leave
the best that they should have. 

646
00:30:39,100 --> 00:30:41,800
Because I didn't do the best I 
could have for them. 

647
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,500
Now, if it's opposite they come 
in feeling like whatever less 

648
00:30:45,500 --> 00:30:48,400
than I do. 
My best every day to shake 

649
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,700
hands, look them right in the 
eye, give him a hug and then 

650
00:30:50,708 --> 00:30:52,800
have a small quick chat about 
what's going on. 

651
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,300
Yeah. 
How can I help, what's the 

652
00:30:54,308 --> 00:30:58,200
vision for the cut? 
And then give them slaps on the 

653
00:30:58,200 --> 00:30:59,400
assert that, you know, like 
yeah. 

654
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:03,100
Bring them up through the cut 
talking about the cut, kind of 

655
00:31:03,100 --> 00:31:08,900
like just constantly trying to 
just bring the bring them up man

656
00:31:08,900 --> 00:31:12,100
like If they come in not feeling
their best, I want to ensure 

657
00:31:12,100 --> 00:31:14,800
that they're feeling even 1% 
better when they leave and 

658
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:16,300
that's an improvement. 
You can't really should. 

659
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,300
I can't shoot for 100 every time
but I can shoot to be better by 

660
00:31:19,300 --> 00:31:21,900
1% 1% every day. 
So if I can have them, leave 

661
00:31:21,900 --> 00:31:24,600
even one percent better. 
Yeah, one percent better than 

662
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:29,100
that's huge and to speak to 
yeah, men's body image. 

663
00:31:29,100 --> 00:31:31,200
And like, the way they feel 
about themselves, there's a lot 

664
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,900
of men that come in for 
haircuts, and it's not every 

665
00:31:33,900 --> 00:31:36,100
man, but there's some that are 
extremely particular. 

666
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:37,800
Yeah. 
But oh my goodness, you cut this

667
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,000
like one inch through 1/4 inch 
or a 16th of an inch too short 

668
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,400
or you missed this piece. 
Now, think about that these are 

669
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,000
men with her. 
Right? 

670
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,400
And now they're fine tuning, 
their focusing and like their 

671
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,700
microscope and in on these finer
details. 

672
00:31:50,700 --> 00:31:51,800
Yeah. 
Now let's go. 

673
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:53,700
Look at the other side of the 
spectrum. 

674
00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:56,400
Men, that don't have hair. 
Yeah. 

675
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:57,900
Or losing their hair? 
Yeah. 

676
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,200
Or thereabouts. 
Patches. 

677
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,300
Or you're talking to one right 
here? 

678
00:32:00,300 --> 00:32:02,200
Right here, right there. 
You've got a great head of hair 

679
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:06,600
but and the beard is killing it.
But yeah, you know, you don't 

680
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,300
just picture that we're talking 
about guys, they're likely 

681
00:32:08,300 --> 00:32:10,800
Finnick finicky orphan SE with 
their hair and then you've got 

682
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:16,300
guys that are losing it and 
those We're losing it man. 

683
00:32:16,300 --> 00:32:19,200
Yeah, many times you talk about 
this quiet lives of desperation 

684
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,600
the inside. 
They don't they don't talk about

685
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:22,100
it. 
Well yeah. 

686
00:32:22,100 --> 00:32:23,700
Losing my hair, whatever, you 
know. 

687
00:32:23,700 --> 00:32:26,300
But many times a lot of them 
inside are not feeling good 

688
00:32:26,300 --> 00:32:28,600
about themselves at that point. 
A lot of tell me I'm totally 

689
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,800
cool people and I'm like, 
alright that's important that 

690
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,900
you're cool with being bald but 
a lot of times I'd say like six 

691
00:32:34,900 --> 00:32:37,200
out of ten times. 
Yeah. 

692
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:39,300
Because they won't admit. 
It didn't want to talk about it.

693
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,000
It's a soft spot because it's 
just not public knowledge. 

694
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,100
It's not publicly like spoken of
too often His mental hair loss, 

695
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,200
it's just like accepted men. 
Go bald. 

696
00:32:48,500 --> 00:32:50,400
Well, that's hard. 
On some Gus. 

697
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:54,500
Yeah, a lot of us like, like a, 
you know, I okay, I got a little

698
00:32:54,500 --> 00:32:56,600
bit. 
Are I'm covering but like, if 

699
00:32:56,600 --> 00:33:01,200
someone the wrong way, Chism? 
Hey, you loosen it back there, a

700
00:33:01,208 --> 00:33:03,200
little bit. 
Like, if I, if it said the wrong

701
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,500
way, I have to deal with that. 
I have to filter that a little 

702
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:08,700
bit to make sure it doesn't 
touch my vibration. 

703
00:33:08,700 --> 00:33:11,300
And I consider myself a guy, 
he's pretty in tune with with 

704
00:33:11,300 --> 00:33:12,500
how I'm feeling and all that 
stuff. 

705
00:33:12,500 --> 00:33:16,100
If I wasn't, if I didn't have 
some tools, That's the kind of 

706
00:33:16,100 --> 00:33:17,300
shit that could sit with 
somebody. 

707
00:33:17,300 --> 00:33:20,900
Three weeks later one, little 
comment in an elevator, or an 

708
00:33:20,900 --> 00:33:23,000
office, or in a job site or 
whatever. 

709
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,200
Can sit with a guy for three to 
four weeks later, it can still 

710
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,900
be sitting there. 
And just for that entire month 

711
00:33:29,900 --> 00:33:32,800
have been looping and looping 
and looping and looping, what 

712
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,700
does that do to our vibration, 
right? 

713
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,200
Absolutely. 
It probably has a large effect 

714
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,800
because it's just like they're 
manifesting almost more of it 

715
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,200
because they're just stuck on 
it. 

716
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,100
It's on repeat on a loop in 
their mind. 

717
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:45,600
My hair doesn't look. 
Good. 

718
00:33:45,700 --> 00:33:47,700
I'm not as confident because I 
don't have here, I can't stop my

719
00:33:47,700 --> 00:33:49,300
hair. 
It's thinning. 

720
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,000
Your looks patchy. 
And then even oh, my goodness to

721
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:57,400
think of the men that have gone 
through the risk and and or lack

722
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,700
thereof reward when it comes to 
not always hair transplants 

723
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,700
rice, you guys going to get a 
hair transplant from the old 

724
00:34:03,700 --> 00:34:07,200
technology, the fut, which is 
like hair. 

725
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,300
Do you see the big Frankenstein 
scars on the back of those? 

726
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:12,800
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 
Something some of the jobs can 

727
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,100
turn on credible and I commend 
these Doctors and surgeons that 

728
00:34:16,100 --> 00:34:19,300
are doing that work, but a lot 
of it isn't turning out well for

729
00:34:19,300 --> 00:34:21,199
them. 
It's taking a lot of time, money

730
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,600
and pain out of these guys 
putting paint into their lives, 

731
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,199
through the experience of the 
actual service. 

732
00:34:26,199 --> 00:34:28,000
And then thereafter, what it 
does work. 

733
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,500
Yeah. 
Or they're jumping on DHT 

734
00:34:29,500 --> 00:34:30,300
blockers. 
Finasteride. 

735
00:34:30,300 --> 00:34:32,100
There's a whole fucking lot to 
it. 

736
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:36,000
So this is where I'm just 
staring at my work on the wall. 

737
00:34:36,100 --> 00:34:38,300
That's why I'm in love with SMP.
Yeah. 

738
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:40,699
You can guarantee results as 
long as they're in alignment 

739
00:34:40,699 --> 00:34:42,400
with what they are expecting. 
Yep. 

740
00:34:42,500 --> 00:34:44,400
Okay. 
So you don't have hair we can 

741
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:45,600
make it look like. 
You do? 

742
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,400
Yep. 
And it's a guaranteed thing. 

743
00:34:47,900 --> 00:34:49,900
This is the process. 
This is how it works. 

744
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,900
And you this is like, what's 
here for the mat is, we're here 

745
00:34:52,900 --> 00:34:56,000
for men men and it's amazing. 
A lot of guys want their hair to

746
00:34:56,007 --> 00:34:58,700
grow back. 
I get that I fully understand. 

747
00:34:58,700 --> 00:35:02,300
Yeah, but the chances of that 
happening, maybe a lot Slimmer 

748
00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:03,300
than you think. 
Yep. 

749
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:06,600
So so I want to go into that a 
little bit because okay, so you 

750
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,300
start, you know, you know, 
you're doing what you're 

751
00:35:09,300 --> 00:35:11,400
supposed to be doing, you're 
enjoying it a lot, you're 

752
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,300
getting game when it comes to 
being the barber and and all the

753
00:35:14,300 --> 00:35:16,600
different styles and Different 
things that you can do for 

754
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:21,400
somebody and you're seeing a 
hole in the market because there

755
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,500
are guys who you're seeing okay,
well, there's another service I 

756
00:35:23,508 --> 00:35:25,700
can add to it. 
This is what the SMP is, right? 

757
00:35:25,700 --> 00:35:27,700
And, and so, let's, let's break 
into that. 

758
00:35:27,700 --> 00:35:31,400
Exactly what is it and I think, 
I think the why you're adding it

759
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,100
to your business is pretty 
evident. 

760
00:35:33,100 --> 00:35:34,800
But yeah, let's let's, let's 
talk about that. 

761
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,400
Let's talk about how guys feel 
it's being done behind us, by 

762
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:39,800
the way everybody. 
Yeah. 

763
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,500
You know, not our first rodeo, 
we got Shannon. 

764
00:35:42,500 --> 00:35:45,000
I'm super grateful. 
Brought Shannon on Deck. 

765
00:35:45,100 --> 00:35:47,700
With me, got her trained up 
under one of my mentors as well.

766
00:35:47,700 --> 00:35:52,200
Just earlier this year, on 
Instagram at Beyond underscore 

767
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:54,100
ink. 
She's extremely talented. 

768
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:56,700
I'm happy to have her on the 
team and scalp micropigmentation

769
00:35:56,700 --> 00:35:58,800
is something that I came across.
Can you be? 

770
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,700
Can you believe this from Scott,
Ramos from famous you go? 

771
00:36:01,900 --> 00:36:03,800
So when I went to go check him 
last year. 

772
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,200
Yep. 2020 2021, I seen him in 
Winnipeg and he's like, dude, 

773
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,400
check out my hair like. 
Yeah, it's fire as per is like 

774
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,200
no, no, look closer and I looked
at his hairline and he's a 

775
00:36:13,207 --> 00:36:14,600
Filipino. 
He's always got to look at the 

776
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,300
nicest. 
So I did a dent. 

777
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,500
Yeah, he did. 
That looks amazing by the way 

778
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:23,700
back there. 
Yeah, no worries Scott. 

779
00:36:23,700 --> 00:36:25,100
Did I like his hairline? 
He did. 

780
00:36:25,100 --> 00:36:27,700
He had a density, the density, 
filters hairline and it just 

781
00:36:27,700 --> 00:36:29,900
looked incredible. 
Like he just got edged up out of

782
00:36:29,908 --> 00:36:34,500
the barbershop like minutes ago.
Yeah but he went to see Donna 

783
00:36:34,500 --> 00:36:39,900
faithie out of Vancouver and so 
he told me he got this job done 

784
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:43,500
from Donna out of band and how 
much it cost and I was like It 

785
00:36:43,500 --> 00:36:44,800
cost that much. 
Yeah. 

786
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,100
And like it was a fair price but
like it just to see what was 

787
00:36:48,100 --> 00:36:50,200
done. 
I couldn't imagine like how 

788
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:51,700
lucrative it could have been 
right? 

789
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,100
And so one I'd recognize how 
happy he was, how confident he 

790
00:36:55,100 --> 00:36:58,100
was so stoked, he was happy and 
stoked, interchangeable words, 

791
00:36:58,100 --> 00:37:00,100
let's do the price. 
For example here, I just want to

792
00:37:00,100 --> 00:37:02,700
make sure what was it about the 
price that shock you so much. 

793
00:37:03,100 --> 00:37:05,400
Well I just knew that the job 
probably didn't take more than 

794
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:06,500
45 minutes. 
Yep. 

795
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,700
And the price point was like 
$675, okay? 

796
00:37:09,900 --> 00:37:12,500
But like I'm also not silly and 
ignorant. 

797
00:37:12,700 --> 00:37:15,700
Ooh, the fact that time effort 
and energy put into a craft and 

798
00:37:15,700 --> 00:37:17,200
service. 
Yeah, used to be rewarded. 

799
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,000
For example, you have this lock,
my lock is broken back there. 

800
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,300
The key broke off inside. 
Yeah, for me to get that fixed 

801
00:37:22,300 --> 00:37:24,100
from a locksmith, I don't know. 
A hundred bucks. 

802
00:37:24,100 --> 00:37:25,400
My taken four minutes. 
Yep. 

803
00:37:25,900 --> 00:37:27,700
Why would I pay someone a 
hundred dollars for four minutes

804
00:37:27,700 --> 00:37:28,900
to work? 
Well, it's because I can't 

805
00:37:28,900 --> 00:37:32,100
reduce you can text bring it so 
by stopping a lucrative 

806
00:37:32,100 --> 00:37:34,600
opportunity to make money to be 
rewarded for helping and 

807
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,100
changing men's lives. 
Okay. 

808
00:37:36,100 --> 00:37:40,300
So, you know, I as I'm a dummy 
and we all know that I'm a dummy

809
00:37:40,300 --> 00:37:43,900
and so Rob dummies. 
So let me well, You know, I 

810
00:37:43,900 --> 00:37:46,300
think about tattoos and I got, I
got a couple, I got a couple 

811
00:37:46,300 --> 00:37:48,800
pieces on my body and all that 
and of course you get what you 

812
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:50,600
pay for when it comes to that 
kind of a thing. 

813
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,500
Now, the first thing that I 
think of, when I think of the 

814
00:37:53,500 --> 00:37:55,900
process you're talking about 
here, are we talking about 

815
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:59,800
tattooing hair onto our bodies? 
That is that essentially what 

816
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:03,200
this process is explain it to me
because I am a dummy. 

817
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:04,600
What exactly are we doing 
reason? 

818
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,300
Like I'm not going to use. 
We're not going to use our 

819
00:38:07,300 --> 00:38:10,700
liners and our needles here to 
draw literally like hair. 

820
00:38:10,700 --> 00:38:12,300
Right? 
Oaks some actually have been 

821
00:38:12,300 --> 00:38:14,300
doing That they're starting to 
do that for women up in this 

822
00:38:14,300 --> 00:38:16,400
area to each their own. 
I'm not gonna do that. 

823
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,600
But yeah, the scalp 
micropigmentation practice and 

824
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:25,300
service that we're providing is 
to create a non-invasive super 

825
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,900
realistic and natural 
replication replication. 

826
00:38:28,900 --> 00:38:33,200
Excuse me of a hair follicle so 
your hair follicle when you buzz

827
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:36,000
it down with likes, a double 
zero, trimmer like a very close 

828
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,400
yet Rim. 
Yep, you're just seeing 

829
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,100
around.but with that pigment of 
your hair, follicle color in 

830
00:38:41,100 --> 00:38:44,800
conjunction with your skin. 
So you know you do a buzz cut. 

831
00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:48,300
Yeah just see follicles. 
And so we're mimicking this. 

832
00:38:48,300 --> 00:38:50,700
So a lot of guys as I mentioned 
on the Norwood set like a Nord 

833
00:38:50,700 --> 00:38:52,900
scale, Norwood seven being the 
most bald. 

834
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,100
They've got the cul-de-sac so 
they can grow this hair as long 

835
00:38:56,100 --> 00:38:58,500
as they want it to do. 
Sure shoulders but the tops not 

836
00:38:58,500 --> 00:39:00,900
going to be there, right? 
So if we just get these guys in 

837
00:39:00,908 --> 00:39:04,000
the line, with the full vision 
of a full buzz cut, yep 

838
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,600
restoring a full head 
representation of a bowl 

839
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,000
haircut. 
We Buzz the sides down to a 

840
00:39:09,008 --> 00:39:11,600
double-0. 
Yeah and then we replicate and 

841
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,900
mimic. 
That exact length of hair which 

842
00:39:14,900 --> 00:39:17,200
is basically none. 
Yep, Through The Impressions 

843
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,100
that we make with our needle so 
you can use on a specific angle,

844
00:39:20,100 --> 00:39:21,900
a little bit of a different 
degree and you can actually 

845
00:39:21,900 --> 00:39:24,300
stroke it a little bit, so you 
create a small stroke. 

846
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,900
But basically what we're making 
is an in the visual 

847
00:39:26,900 --> 00:39:29,000
representation of a buzz cut 
through. 

848
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,600
That's short, small micro 
follicle size. 

849
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,800
Wow, if that makes sense. 
I hope you didn't put that. 

850
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,100
No, it totally makes sense. 
And now I want to, I want to 

851
00:39:37,100 --> 00:39:39,900
talk about like we can't see the
pictures that are, that are up 

852
00:39:39,900 --> 00:39:43,000
in the here. 
But at the end of the day, What 

853
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,200
you're essentially doing is 
somebody is if they've if 

854
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,300
they've had a buzz cut and they 
look like that mr. 

855
00:39:47,300 --> 00:39:50,400
Clean on top like I'm getting 
that a little bit up here right 

856
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:55,800
by creating the illusion or the 
Symmetry. 

857
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,300
The Symmetry is probably a 
better word by creating that 

858
00:39:58,300 --> 00:40:01,400
symmetry again. 
How much difference does that 

859
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,900
make on men's mental health or 
self-esteem? 

860
00:40:04,900 --> 00:40:07,800
Oh buddy. 
Well Shannon did a job 

861
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,500
yesterday. 
She didn't density feel. 

862
00:40:09,500 --> 00:40:11,700
So there's a hairline 
restoration for men that are 

863
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:15,300
like say Anywhere from like a 
Norwood 427, they got extreme 

864
00:40:15,300 --> 00:40:18,900
hair loss and we had to recreate
that whole full fresh hairline 

865
00:40:18,900 --> 00:40:22,000
is seven like the the most hair 
loss that the mr. 

866
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,200
Clean cul-de-sac and gun being 
liked is minimal. 

867
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,800
Okay. 
There's a lot of guys in like 

868
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,500
the Norwood 1 2 3 4, which would
be like they're just spot. 

869
00:40:29,700 --> 00:40:31,500
Excuse me, pattern baldness or 
thinning. 

870
00:40:31,500 --> 00:40:34,600
Yep, you can do. 
And also for women, of course to

871
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:36,800
yeah, you can do, what is called
a density fill. 

872
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,900
So they're not going to cut 
their hair down as short as you 

873
00:40:39,900 --> 00:40:41,900
would for the hairline 
restoration, right? 

874
00:40:41,900 --> 00:40:44,700
The leave the hair. 
Is depending on how this 

875
00:40:44,700 --> 00:40:48,200
hairstyle works or looks but 
we're going to add the density, 

876
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:53,000
the density with these 
Impressions through the hair to 

877
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:55,500
just actually create a mirage 
effect on the scalp. 

878
00:40:55,500 --> 00:40:58,600
So it's not like the light white
skin scalp anymore. 

879
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,300
It's got the illusionary effect.
Pardon me of a thicker head of 

880
00:41:02,300 --> 00:41:03,800
hair. 
That color makes a difference. 

881
00:41:03,900 --> 00:41:05,900
Yeah, it's a massive. 
Yeah a lot of the guys that we 

882
00:41:05,900 --> 00:41:09,300
are doing now including the one 
that Shin had done yesterday was

883
00:41:09,500 --> 00:41:13,400
post hair transplant. 
Okay so varied Chia Pet like 

884
00:41:13,500 --> 00:41:16,200
with all due respect, but it 
hair grows out when the hair 

885
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,600
grows out in length. 
The follicles you can see the 

886
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,200
spacing between them and as the 
hair grows out you can see the 

887
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,200
light shine through and then you
have the the just completely 

888
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,700
obvious visual. 
That's a different illusion. 

889
00:41:26,700 --> 00:41:28,900
Now is that now you're seeing 
scalp through here. 

890
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,500
Yeah and now we're going to 
avoid the vision of the scalp 

891
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:33,700
through the Mirage effect with 
these Impressions. 

892
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,100
Yeah. 
I think sometimes the act of 

893
00:41:36,100 --> 00:41:40,000
just doing something like like 
you know what, you're a jacked 

894
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:44,200
up dude, my oldest. 
Son, jack guy just went through 

895
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,400
his first bodybuilding 
competition and I look at that 

896
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,300
and go. 
Okay, that is a, that's a that's

897
00:41:49,300 --> 00:41:50,200
incredible. 
What? 

898
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,000
You know you guys do, but when I
go to the gym, I still feel 

899
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:54,500
good. 
I mean, I come out looking like 

900
00:41:54,500 --> 00:41:57,000
that, but I still feel good. 
And I think sometimes that the 

901
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:02,400
effort goes a long way to our 
mental well-being. 

902
00:42:02,700 --> 00:42:05,900
And I think, I think sometimes 
we let ourselves go because we 

903
00:42:05,900 --> 00:42:08,300
don't know that there are other 
options that are out there for 

904
00:42:08,300 --> 00:42:10,200
sure. 
We don't necessarily go to the 

905
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,000
barber for the, you know, you 
know, you know we Go to the 

906
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,600
again and not trying to, you 
know, demoralize anybody or 

907
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,400
judge anybody but they go to the
the 15 Dollar haircut from the 

908
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:25,100
you know from The Chain versus 
going to, somebody who actually 

909
00:42:25,100 --> 00:42:26,200
is going to put some care into 
it. 

910
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,400
And say, okay, let's be 
intentional. 

911
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,000
We're going to make you feel 
like this. 

912
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,700
When you leave here we're going 
to make you look like this. 

913
00:42:31,700 --> 00:42:33,700
When you leave here we're going 
to we're going to make you feel 

914
00:42:33,700 --> 00:42:35,400
special. 
Essentially is really what it is

915
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,000
and aren't we all just looking 
for somebody in our life to kind

916
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,100
of have our back when it comes 
to that the clothing sales, gal,

917
00:42:41,100 --> 00:42:43,500
who actually means what she As 
she's not just trying to get a 

918
00:42:43,500 --> 00:42:45,600
commission. 
She actually says no no no. 

919
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,200
Don't wear those pants wear. 
These pants are perfect for your

920
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,100
body type. 
Aren't we just fucking looking 

921
00:42:50,100 --> 00:42:52,200
for that as guys. 
I would say. 

922
00:42:52,500 --> 00:42:56,300
And you get to be that for a lot
of guys who don't necessarily 

923
00:42:56,400 --> 00:43:00,500
open up on this stuff for sure 
but you can see it like you're 

924
00:43:00,500 --> 00:43:02,500
almost. 
You're almost like a thread this

925
00:43:02,500 --> 00:43:05,800
about bartenders and about folks
who work with people's hair. 

926
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,100
You're almost like an armchair 
psychologist, right? 

927
00:43:08,900 --> 00:43:11,300
Yeah. 
And I mean it goes both ways too

928
00:43:11,300 --> 00:43:15,500
because us Our stylist, it's not
about us, it's about the client,

929
00:43:15,500 --> 00:43:19,000
but we get a lot back from our 
clients to the open, 

930
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,600
communication between men and 
between women to because we do 

931
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,100
service men and women what 
specifically will speak to men 

932
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:27,800
on men. 
Yeah, this is a great 

933
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,700
opportunity to save place in the
my specific Barbershop is a 

934
00:43:31,700 --> 00:43:34,500
place that I know a lot and if 
not all my clients that are true

935
00:43:34,500 --> 00:43:37,500
to me and tight with me and that
are, repeat customers know that 

936
00:43:37,500 --> 00:43:39,500
we have a unique Bond. 
We have a unique experience, 

937
00:43:39,500 --> 00:43:42,400
unique conversations, and it's 
between us and we help. 

938
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:45,400
One another through like today's
my birthday and my phone's 

939
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,700
exploding with clients hitting 
me and I appreciate it so much 

940
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,700
and like, if it wasn't for them,
I wouldn't be where I am. 

941
00:43:50,700 --> 00:43:53,800
And some wasn't for a sec, some 
of the things that we've gone 

942
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:55,900
through and talked about, in 
some of these cuts that I've 

943
00:43:55,900 --> 00:43:58,600
done for them, they may or may 
not be even here today, 

944
00:43:58,900 --> 00:44:00,500
honestly. 
Oh my God. 

945
00:44:03,100 --> 00:44:04,900
I love Judo minimize. 
What you do? 

946
00:44:05,100 --> 00:44:09,900
I love that, you know, that and 
you take stock and and pride. 

947
00:44:09,900 --> 00:44:12,400
But, in a good way, you take, 
you know, confidence out of the 

948
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,700
fact that you're actually doing 
something that does have a bit 

949
00:44:14,700 --> 00:44:17,200
of a higher purpose to it. 
Like, when you say that, it 

950
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:21,200
sounds dramatic, but it's 100% 
true. 

951
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:23,100
And sometimes those little 
things can be. 

952
00:44:23,100 --> 00:44:26,100
Dramatic, God. 
It's very. 

953
00:44:26,100 --> 00:44:27,800
Very cool. 
You opening up and talking about

954
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,300
these things here. 
Tom get slippery. 

955
00:44:29,300 --> 00:44:32,800
When we, when we do these shows,
I see that like a broken record.

956
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,200
I think every time Tom gets 
slippery I like it. 

957
00:44:35,700 --> 00:44:37,400
It sounds good to me automatic 
poetically. 

958
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,000
It's nice. 
I like it. 

959
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:40,800
Anyway. 
Time gets slippery. 

960
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:42,800
It goes fast. 
I want to make sure that we 

961
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,400
cover anything that that you 
want to get out there before we 

962
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,300
finish this episode. 
I hope you come back one day, 

963
00:44:48,300 --> 00:44:52,000
like I love that. 
You're able to talk about this 

964
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:58,000
stuff many times, it's things 
that happened in our past and we

965
00:44:58,008 --> 00:45:00,200
examine the traumas of the 
things that happened in our past

966
00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:05,200
that lead to being Living a 
future that is intentional for 

967
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:06,900
sure. 
And and it's clear that you're 

968
00:45:06,900 --> 00:45:09,800
doing that, come with its own 
struggles men. 

969
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,400
So like I don't want to paint a 
picture like that figured it all

970
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,300
out because I'm working every 
day to figure it out, like 

971
00:45:15,300 --> 00:45:19,400
Shannon's aware my Apprentice. 
That might be here very soon. 

972
00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,100
So my closest clients to me, 
friends and family, all know 

973
00:45:23,100 --> 00:45:26,500
that I have and still do at 
times, struggle with my own 

974
00:45:26,500 --> 00:45:29,800
demons in my own issues and just
vocalizing these things. 

975
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:33,200
And speaking them to the ones 
that you can trust, And have 

976
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:35,400
close to your heart, to help you
is important. 

977
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,200
You know, I've struggled with 
drug use and consumption, 

978
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,000
addictions, and I've pushed 
through these things. 

979
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,000
I'm not saying there were 
perfect, you know, but never 

980
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,400
perfect know, it's always strive
to be 1% better every day and 

981
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,100
you do and have complete 
transparency and Truth in honor.

982
00:45:50,100 --> 00:45:53,000
And what it is you're trying to 
accomplish and taking these 

983
00:45:53,300 --> 00:45:56,600
small steps each day. 
So yeah, man, throughout the 

984
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,500
whole process of even becoming a
barber moving to Kelowna buying 

985
00:45:59,500 --> 00:46:03,000
a house working in the patch. 
Coming out of it losing my Girl 

986
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,400
5 years, buying a house. 
I'll just all the shit. 

987
00:46:05,700 --> 00:46:09,900
It comes with the cost and it 
comes with It's just, it's 

988
00:46:09,900 --> 00:46:12,800
taxing, but as long as you're 
taking stock of what it is, 

989
00:46:12,808 --> 00:46:15,600
you're doing for yourself, who's
around you, what you're doing 

990
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,400
with your time, how you're 
treating yourself, your mental, 

991
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,600
your own self, your own, your 
own self. 

992
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,500
Talk needs to be definitely 
closely analyzed, and if you 

993
00:46:23,500 --> 00:46:25,500
find yourself, not speaking to 
yourself. 

994
00:46:25,900 --> 00:46:27,800
So kindly, that's where I would 
start. 

995
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:30,700
Step One is start to speak to 
yourself a little bit more 

996
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,800
respectfully. 
And honestly don't look yourself

997
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:35,100
in the mirror anymore in the lie
to yourself. 

998
00:46:35,100 --> 00:46:36,800
Tell yourself the truth. 
Like look yourself deep in the 

999
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,600
eyes of know that you are worthy
worthy, and Capable. 

1000
00:46:39,700 --> 00:46:42,000
And then take the action, steps 
plan it out. 

1001
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:43,300
Get the help. 
You need reach out. 

1002
00:46:43,300 --> 00:46:45,500
Put your hands back out and some
will reach for it. 

1003
00:46:45,500 --> 00:46:48,400
Yeah, you know, and if they 
won't just keep throwing your 

1004
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,000
hand in the face and someone's 
going to say, yo, what are you 

1005
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:52,200
doing? 
And get older, you need, you 

1006
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:53,200
know what I mean? 
That's what you're doing. 

1007
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,100
You're describing exactly what 
he changed. 

1008
00:46:55,100 --> 00:46:58,900
His all about perfect, you're 
describing exactly what what my 

1009
00:46:58,900 --> 00:47:02,200
wife and her team are trying to 
build is, is the place where 

1010
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:04,900
guys can put their hand out and 
sometimes anonymously is the 

1011
00:47:04,908 --> 00:47:06,900
better way to go. 
You know, you should get a room,

1012
00:47:07,100 --> 00:47:10,100
you got a virtual room or sore. 
Whatever with Five Guys in 

1013
00:47:10,100 --> 00:47:12,100
there. 
Hey, I just got cheated on or 

1014
00:47:12,100 --> 00:47:14,500
hey this just how I just got 
fired or hey I don't feel very 

1015
00:47:14,500 --> 00:47:17,600
good about myself right now and 
suddenly there's five guys who 

1016
00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:19,100
you're saying that to number 
one. 

1017
00:47:19,500 --> 00:47:22,200
You just said it yourself. 
When you talk to people that you

1018
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,200
trust about some of the stuff, 
right? 

1019
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:26,700
Doesn't that take away the 
power, okay, if you're if you're

1020
00:47:26,700 --> 00:47:30,400
if you're consumed by consuming 
things and that is happening. 

1021
00:47:30,700 --> 00:47:33,000
If you tell somebody that you're
consuming things, doesn't that 

1022
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,400
take away some of the power. 
It's the silence and was just 

1023
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,900
living with it, internally 
alone. 

1024
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,500
That is what gives it a lot of 
its power, right? 

1025
00:47:41,500 --> 00:47:44,200
For sure. 
So just the idea of letting out 

1026
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,600
some steam by talking about this
shit. 

1027
00:47:46,900 --> 00:47:51,300
I mean that alone is a big help.
Absolutely. 

1028
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:55,800
I think. 
Yeah, just being honest open and

1029
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,000
then searching for answers 
through like, you know, 

1030
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:01,700
meditation communication with 
with groups like this. 

1031
00:48:01,700 --> 00:48:05,000
Like, he changed it, close 
friends even just like finding a

1032
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,800
barber like me, you can come 
check it. 

1033
00:48:06,900 --> 00:48:10,200
Check out the Black Market, 
Barbershop a coast Be here in 

1034
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,100
Kelowna. 
It's a safe spot for men and 

1035
00:48:12,100 --> 00:48:15,700
women. 
I'm definitely an open book like

1036
00:48:15,700 --> 00:48:18,400
I have no qualms to tell the 
truth about my life. 

1037
00:48:18,700 --> 00:48:19,800
And that's the unique thing, 
man. 

1038
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:24,300
A lot of people don't know how 
to accept that. 

1039
00:48:24,300 --> 00:48:27,000
Everyone's got an opinion and 
the streets are talking at all 

1040
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:29,200
times, but they're not always 
talking about you and if you do 

1041
00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,900
hear someone, speaking of you 
one time or two times or two 

1042
00:48:31,900 --> 00:48:35,900
times three times, whatever you 
just got to keep moving and keep

1043
00:48:35,900 --> 00:48:38,200
your head held high knowing that
you are. 

1044
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,300
Assuming you are and I hope you 
all are pushing to become one 

1045
00:48:42,300 --> 00:48:45,800
percent better every day. 
And so if you're doing that, I 

1046
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,600
mean, what are you doing? 
Wrong essentially, nothing. 

1047
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,600
You're going to fail forward and
you learn. 

1048
00:48:50,700 --> 00:48:52,900
As you go, there's no losses 
unless you're not actually 

1049
00:48:52,900 --> 00:48:55,600
taking stock of these lessons 
and making adjustments to 

1050
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,300
improve your life. 
Absolutely. 

1051
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,800
That dude sleeping. 
He may be pretty close. 

1052
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:08,000
You might be sleeping, getting 
the scalp done and your beauty 

1053
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:09,700

There we go.

00:50:14,100 --> 00:50:16,500
Amer cie are, who is Nicholas 
mercy. 

1074
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:20,400
So we are Black Market, Barbacoa
Shannon Nicholas. 

1075
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,900
My apprentice and all my clients
were all black market Barber 

1076
00:50:23,900 --> 00:50:26,500
coat and just keep in mind like,
why we started, we started this 

1077
00:50:26,500 --> 00:50:29,800
because we were all told most of
us were told we were not 

1078
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:34,100
essential And that is incorrect.
We are all essential and that is

1079
00:50:34,100 --> 00:50:36,400
why we opened the shop to 
service the community, men and 

1080
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,700
women alike to helping like a 
beacon of light to know that 

1081
00:50:39,700 --> 00:50:43,800
there is a way out, you know, 
that plan demick lockdown was 

1082
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,400
dark and gloomy for a lot of 
people and it had a huge effect 

1083
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,500
on men's mental health. 
So me, having started the shop 

1084
00:50:49,500 --> 00:50:53,600
out of my garage to stop. 
The jump was a great start in 

1085
00:50:53,700 --> 00:50:56,000
the journey that I've been on 
today to continue to push to 

1086
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:00,400
improve Men's Health and men's 
self-image and mental. 

1087
00:51:00,500 --> 00:51:02,900
Health. 
And now we're segueing into men 

1088
00:51:02,900 --> 00:51:06,200
and women's self image and 
mental health through the act of

1089
00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,200
scalp micropigmentation. 
Amazing. 

1090
00:51:08,700 --> 00:51:12,200
I'm so grateful for this, let me
tell you, okay, can you do 

1091
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:13,600
something for me? 
Because I need a lot of help 

1092
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:15,200
here. 
Is there anything that you know,

1093
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:17,400
your beard is looking fire? 
The Hara ice? 

1094
00:51:17,500 --> 00:51:20,100
I think what I would just do is 
we'll talk about it. 

1095
00:51:20,100 --> 00:51:22,100
We'll talk about it after we 
can't let me all your secrets, 

1096
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:26,400
if he can help me, if there's 
help for me, anybody is it a 

1097
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:27,900
lot? 
If they found a lost cause 

1098
00:51:27,900 --> 00:51:29,200
nobody else has? 
That's what I'm trying to say. 

1099
00:51:29,700 --> 00:51:34,300
No, I I just a little bit, but I
just appreciate your energy so 

1100
00:51:34,300 --> 00:51:37,000
much I can feel it. 
I'm sure it can be felt through 

1101
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,300
the, through the ones, and zeros
of the digital landscape out 

1102
00:51:40,300 --> 00:51:43,800
there as well, thank you for 
being for being so vulnerable 

1103
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:45,200
today. 
Vulnerability, is the thing 

1104
00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,300
that, I mean it's a silver 
bullet as well gratefulness you,

1105
00:51:48,300 --> 00:51:51,000
you touched on. 
A lot of them talking about 

1106
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,600
self-image and all these things.
We're going to we're going to 

1107
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:55,300
make it so it's not 
uncomfortable to talk about the 

1108
00:51:55,300 --> 00:51:57,900
stuff for men. 
That's that's the goal. 

1109
00:51:58,300 --> 00:52:01,300
Shine the Light on the things 
that need shining on On and 

1110
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:03,100
let's shrink the darkness that's
out there. 

1111
00:52:03,100 --> 00:52:05,600
You are doing that, Nicholas you
and your crew and everything 

1112
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,500
you're doing. 
The fact is that when you talk 

1113
00:52:07,500 --> 00:52:09,900
about your new space, that 
you've opened here fairly 

1114
00:52:09,900 --> 00:52:12,800
recently, and you've used the 
word, this is a safe space, like

1115
00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:14,500
five times during this 
broadcast. 

1116
00:52:14,500 --> 00:52:17,200
Even I love that you call this 
place. 

1117
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:20,500
It's not just cool. 
And, and inviting and 

1118
00:52:20,500 --> 00:52:22,400
comfortable, you call it a safe 
space. 

1119
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,800
I love that. 
That's fantastic. 

1120
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:26,600
Appreciate that. 
I'm not too far left. 

1121
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:28,700
I'm not too far, right? 
I don't really like the woke mob

1122
00:52:28,700 --> 00:52:30,400
these days but we are a safe 
place. 

1123
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,800
Sense. 
That men and women can walk in 

1124
00:52:32,808 --> 00:52:35,500
here know that they're safe from
judgment and they're safe to 

1125
00:52:35,500 --> 00:52:37,600
speak their mind. 
And they're, they're safe to 

1126
00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:39,700
just tell us what they how they 
feel from the heart. 

1127
00:52:39,700 --> 00:52:42,700
That's what a safe places to me.
It doesn't mean you can't use 

1128
00:52:42,700 --> 00:52:45,300
certain words or let's leave it 
at that. 

1129
00:52:45,300 --> 00:52:49,000

some tips to guys like me out 

1139

find our way. 

1140

ourselves and we have figures 

1141
00:53:19,100 --> 00:53:22,000
of, come back and connect and we
can map out a project plan. 

1142
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,100

sweet, if it's just me and you 

1143
00:53:25,100 --> 00:53:27,000
guys, let's do it. 
I'd love to talk more about my 

1144

It is an incredible thing where 

1150
00:53:46,500 --> 00:53:50,100
we all start thinking about 
where we're at and where we want

1151
00:53:50,100 --> 00:53:52,200
to be, and we help each other 
get there.
