And if, Is hit the fan today, I 137 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,100 would go back and be a bedside nurse, and I would hit the 138 00:07:38,100 --> 00:07:40,400 floor. If I needed to, I have no qualms 139 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,500 about it. The, it's a crazy skill set to 140 00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:47,300 have that side office Amazon's probably about to hire, you 141 00:07:47,300 --> 00:07:51,000 know, bedside nurses soon.

And so I'm like this podcast 144 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:02,000 were talking about like stepping outside of bedside to me. 145 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,700 It's like it's deep. /. I know I mentioned, I've just 146 00:08:04,700 --> 00:08:06,900 came from Japan. There's this term called, is she 147 00:08:06,900 --> 00:08:12,400 got lucky?

That's my life's work. 167 00:09:24,900 --> 00:09:32,900 But if I am stuck in necessity and stuck in needing to bring 168 00:09:32,900 --> 00:09:36,100 in, come home to my family, then there's just chart, I'll send it 169 00:09:36,100 --> 00:09:37,000 to you. Maybe you could post it 170 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,800 somewhere, there's this chart, that shows. 171 00:09:38,900 --> 00:09:42,600 Yeah.

We walk wake up and go to work. 182 00:10:14,500 --> 00:10:20,100 We are doing what the world needs, but we're so far over and 183 00:10:20,100 --> 00:10:22,900 and doing what makes us money. So, we're on one half of the 184 00:10:22,900 --> 00:10:25,000 chart. I want to try to get us to the 185 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,200 center of it and where we are doing a lot of the things that 186 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,700 we love and that can generate US income and what the world needs. 187 00:10:32,700 --> 00:10:35,400 But nurses really have to afford checked out. 188 00:10:35,700 --> 00:10:40,500 We don't there's people who wish and strive wake up and say I do 189 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,300 I feel fulfilled because I'm not doing anything for the world 190 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,300 because humans are fulfilled by service. 191 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,700 Yeah. And so we have that already and 192 00:10:49,700 --> 00:10:53,500 so I want to move us to the life's work. 193 00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:57,000 What sets us on fire? What do we love doing? 194 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,900 What would not feel like work? And we briefly talked about this 195 00:11:00,900 --> 00:11:02,900 before? I think the closer we get to 196 00:11:02,900 --> 00:11:06,300 that, you would have nurses being happy to skip into work 197 00:11:06,700 --> 00:11:09,000 because they're fulfilled outside. 198 00:11:09,300 --> 00:11:12,000 Imagine going. Work, and everyone's everyone's 199 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,100 working two days, three days a week with smiles on their faces, 200 00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:18,000 it would be lit. I think everyone it would be 201 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,900 amazing. Obviously, you gotta get the 202 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,900 for-profit hospital systems in order but yeah. 203 00:11:23,900 --> 00:11:28,000 So just that's where I'm at on this Mission aside from building 204 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,400 businesses and things and real estate. 205 00:11:30,700 --> 00:11:34,300 That is so cool. I love that whole diatribe that 206 00:11:34,300 --> 00:11:38,300 you just shared basically saying, Hey listen like I want 207 00:11:38,300 --> 00:11:42,600 us to be in the middle of a Under of knowing what we love 208 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,500 doing, what brings Joy, brings a service to the world. 209 00:11:47,100 --> 00:11:50,000 What we're passionate about, I wanted to help us bring money 210 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,900 because it's unrealistic to say that we don't need money or 211 00:11:53,900 --> 00:11:55,800 people don't need to work for profit. 212 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,300 I think there's something about greed that I have found as I've 213 00:11:59,300 --> 00:12:01,600 gotten older than I'm just like, well, that's just greedy. 214 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,200 Like, you know, when somebody comes and takes like, you know, 215 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:07,100 when I went trick-or-treating with my kid, he took one piece 216 00:12:07,100 --> 00:12:10,500 of candy from everybody's. It was so precious one. 217 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,200 And I was like they're like no no take more. 218 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,000 And he was like, nope I'm okay. I'm content with just the one. 219 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,600 Where did you get that from? I don't know where he got think. 220 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,600 It's my how you chill. He's my husband is so like 221 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,300 content. So like I think no, I think it 222 00:12:23,300 --> 00:12:24,600 is. It's the parenting right? 223 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,700 And so I was so proud of him. I little mama heart was so full 224 00:12:27,900 --> 00:12:30,500 because I was noticing, he wasn't that kid, that was like 225 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,000 all the kids taking it, he wasn't being greedy. 226 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,900 And so, I think you can get what you need and other people have 227 00:12:36,900 --> 00:12:40,200 different levels of need, right? Like some people want certain 228 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,500 things. Or they certain things. 229 00:12:42,500 --> 00:12:44,900 And okay, fine, I think that's okay, get what you feel like you 230 00:12:44,908 --> 00:12:47,800 need, but I think to a certain degree, the greed is what's 231 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,500 turning people off to certain concepts of capitalism where 232 00:12:50,500 --> 00:12:52,100 it's like okay that is just greedy. 233 00:12:52,100 --> 00:12:54,000 Like come on man. You're just taking advantage of 234 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,500 people's vulnerabilities, those types of things bother me about 235 00:12:57,500 --> 00:13:00,100 it. But I do look ago, it's on 236 00:13:00,100 --> 00:13:04,700 realistic to say that we don't need these things to be able to 237 00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:07,800 live and to provide a family, especially your, where we live, 238 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,500 right? Yes, keep it real. 239 00:13:09,500 --> 00:13:11,500 We live in the United. States. 240 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,300 Most of us. I mean, I'm sure you have 241 00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:15,400 listeners all over the world but to it's crazy. 242 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,300 You know what? You know about the United 243 00:13:17,300 --> 00:13:19,800 States? You step out your house is 244 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,600 expensive. Yes. 245 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,700 I don't want any more expensive with inflation and I mean, I 246 00:13:24,700 --> 00:13:26,500 wouldn't sell a car and eggs the same eggs. 247 00:13:26,500 --> 00:13:28,600 I bought like not even six months ago, they've gone up two 248 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,300 dollars. I was like this is crazy like 249 00:13:31,300 --> 00:13:35,100 Derby, which is why I have chickens like that's a whole 250 00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:37,900 other podcast for another day.

I was at the ICU nurse, I had 292 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,700 applied for nursing school, literally the day before the 293 00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:55,000 deadline because it was 2008 and I'm looking around at everyone 294 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,400 and 2008 like the job market just hearing. 295 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,500 Like, I'm a vision, I'm a Visionary. 296 00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:03,900 Like I look way ahead and I sat in my room, on Christmas break 297 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,800 around this time. Actually, and I'm like, what do 298 00:16:05,808 --> 00:16:09,300 I want my life to be?

I knew I would get in because I 306 00:16:30,608 --> 00:16:33,100 had, I was a D1 athlete at the time of the school. 307 00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:36,200 My grades were right, and I was like, oh, this application looks 308 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,900 great. So got my rexton, I applied. 309 00:16:38,900 --> 00:16:40,400 And at the same time, I was looking at that application. 310 00:16:40,500 --> 00:16:42,200 Ation. I said, well, where do I go 311 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,300 after that? Because I am the first daughter 312 00:16:45,900 --> 00:16:50,000 of two Caribbean, parents education. 313 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,900 Yeah. It's my mom's where Ruben my ass 314 00:16:51,900 --> 00:16:53,600 in Jamaica. My mom speaks Spanish, 315 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,200 Portuguese, all the deal. So cool didn't teach us the word 316 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,900 love him. And so I was like, I knew I had 317 00:17:00,900 --> 00:17:03,200 to go back to school. I just knew so I was like, 318 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,700 what's a nurse 1 grad, school of nursing and back. 319 00:17:05,700 --> 00:17:08,400 Then the only two things that came up were nurse practitioner 320 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:13,400 and CRNA, And I was looking at nurse practitioners like just 321 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:17,200 for off what I knew. Don't let anyone come from me, I 322 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,900 was like, I'm not gonna be working at the hospital anymore 323 00:17:19,900 --> 00:17:22,900 like that. Like I saw them at the bedside 324 00:17:22,900 --> 00:17:26,800 and I was like, no, that's not what I want to do it. 325 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:33,500 So I saw CRNA and I look at the salaries and I said, oh yeah, I 326 00:17:33,500 --> 00:17:36,500 just really do that after I graduate school. 327 00:17:36,500 --> 00:17:38,800 Yeah. So from, then I said, that's 328 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,300 what I want to do because I knew that making that amount of 329 00:17:42,308 --> 00:17:45,900 money, I would be secure. Call it what you want. 330 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:47,500 I knew that's what I needed to do. 331 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,200 Now me being young and naive, I didn't really know what that 332 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,300 entail but I just had said it my mind and I was going to do it so 333 00:17:55,300 --> 00:17:58,900 fast forward went to the ICU step down immediately. 334 00:17:58,900 --> 00:18:01,200 Found a CBI, see job and couldn't get it initially. 335 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,700 And so I just started working like I didn't want to wait 336 00:18:03,700 --> 00:18:07,400 around just to get a nice easy job and so eight months after 337 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:12,500 that, I applied got in. Like I worked at a very good ICU 338 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,600 and started that journey of Air Force, like I mentioned. 339 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,700 And when I started school because you know, he wanted the 340 00:18:19,700 --> 00:18:22,400 military to pay for your D. I knew that he I was looking at 341 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:23,900 that. What I was like, how do I pay 342 00:18:23,900 --> 00:18:26,500 for the expensive? Yeah that's who. 343 00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:29,300 And I found some some other scholarships that are in zafer 344 00:18:29,300 --> 00:18:31,900 scholarship that they had closed that funding down it was time 345 00:18:31,900 --> 00:18:34,500 for me to go. It sounds like okay pivot, I 346 00:18:34,508 --> 00:18:40,900 guess its military and so when I started school in 2016, I 347 00:18:40,908 --> 00:18:44,900 stopped working. I was getting a stipend and From 348 00:18:44,900 --> 00:18:47,300 the military. So you pay about 1200, 1200 349 00:18:47,300 --> 00:18:50,000 dollars, twice a month. And I was looking at my 350 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,400 classmates and they were struggling like we went to 351 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,000 expenses who I was to do. Like there was no by the time 352 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,900 you leave, there's 250,000 dollars after everything and I 353 00:19:00,908 --> 00:19:06,300 chose Duke on purpose, but I was looking at people struggling, 354 00:19:06,300 --> 00:19:09,200 they made it obviously and could pay backs because of the skill 355 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,600 set. But even I was feeling a little 356 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,500 tight in my finances and I was like, well I know I'm not going 357 00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:16,500 back.

I bought that for. 421 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,500 How much did you start with pain down? 422 00:23:03,500 --> 00:23:07,100 Like because I mean your way you're still, you're done with 423 00:23:07,100 --> 00:23:09,200 school. Yeah, you're making money. 424 00:23:09,500 --> 00:23:12,800 So did you put down like 10%? I did you put down my hateful 425 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,200 20,000 for the house in Durham? They have down payment 426 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:17,900 assistance. A lot of cities have down 427 00:23:17,900 --> 00:23:20,600 payment, assistance. And I found this house 428 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,100 specifically because I wasn't making income technically that 429 00:23:24,100 --> 00:23:28,700 money, that stipend is not It as income and for the hpsp 430 00:23:28,700 --> 00:23:32,700 scholarship and so that house has like a deed on it. 431 00:23:32,700 --> 00:23:36,000 That required it to be this how they stopped or delayed 432 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,900 gentrification the / people having to move into that house, 433 00:23:39,900 --> 00:23:44,000 have to have an income below. A certain amount was a beautiful 434 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:50,200 house and so I was like oh that's me typically and so I 435 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,000 moved into that house and I just lived there and this is what I 436 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,300 coach people on in my network and the hive. 437 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:59,100 By where you live everybody. You're living there. 438 00:23:59,100 --> 00:24:00,900 Someone else has to move. Lay their head there. 439 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,200 It's easiest thing ever. If you're nursing school 440 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,100 somewhere by and we can talk about Rabbi or whatever. 441 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,300 But yeah, so nothing with that one. 442 00:24:08,500 --> 00:24:12,300 This next one which is also why I joined the military no payment 443 00:24:12,300 --> 00:24:18,100 down now, go down payment cuz I was the VA VA loan loan right 444 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,500 now. But like I said, there's down 445 00:24:19,500 --> 00:24:24,000 payment systems for everything. There's find programs where you 446 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,700 can buy a home. FHA 2003, and they give you 447 00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:29,600 funds to renovate it. And I'm just going to plug this 448 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,000 in right now. If I knew what I knew. 449 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:35,300 Now, as a nursing student, I would have gotten a little CNA 450 00:24:35,300 --> 00:24:36,900 job.

So now, another one of the side 690 00:37:12,900 --> 00:37:14,800 hustles, it's almost like you turn. 691 00:37:14,900 --> 00:37:17,400 All your pain. Ons, or maybe you had like one 692 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:21,100 Pond, but now you have like a king, a queen, a rook, you're 693 00:37:21,100 --> 00:37:24,800 playing chess and you're no longer playing with little tiny 694 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,200 protons moving one step at a time. 695 00:37:27,300 --> 00:37:31,500 Now, you're dashing across the chess board or the way and a 696 00:37:31,500 --> 00:37:33,800 different. You're playing a different game. 697 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,900 No, this is. This is huge. 698 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,500 And one of the things I always ask all these business owners 699 00:37:38,500 --> 00:37:42,000 that I talk to is, what is one of the most challenging aspects 700 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,400 that you had to overcome in creating the business. 701 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:50,000 One way that your Nursing degree helps you have an edge. 702 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,300 So, how did you have an edge because of your background as a 703 00:37:53,300 --> 00:37:54,800 nurse? And then what's one thing that 704 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,600 you're like? This is a grind because I didn't 705 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,400 have enough ground as a business. 706 00:37:59,500 --> 00:38:01,200 Yeah, tell me that you don't mind. 707 00:38:01,700 --> 00:38:04,200 So I don't mind at all. Such a good question. 708 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:08,300 By the way, they have one thing that is different in our 709 00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:10,000 education. As nurses is there's no 710 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:15,200 Financial classes. Doctors have a course and at 711 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,700 least an elective on how to manage their money. 712 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,500 We don't have that and so we should change that. 713 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,100 Oh, that's a whole nother thought for another day. 714 00:38:26,100 --> 00:38:29,000 But I'm on a mission like no, that's not have elected for 715 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:30,000 something? Yes. 716 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,200 But and so I would teach it really like any of us. 717 00:38:33,300 --> 00:38:38,100 Come on, let's go. All right, go ahead as a nurse. 718 00:38:39,700 --> 00:38:45,100 I was not taught we were, we're taught to take orders like we 719 00:38:45,100 --> 00:38:47,200 are. Brought up to wait until 720 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:51,800 somebody tells us to do something or someone puts a 721 00:38:51,808 --> 00:38:57,800 script in, so that we can do something that mindset is 722 00:38:57,800 --> 00:38:59,500 hindering. I'm grateful. 723 00:38:59,700 --> 00:39:02,200 And I always like to say this on every podcast everything, I'm 724 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,700 very privileged, I know my privilege, I know where I came 725 00:39:04,700 --> 00:39:07,800 from to have two parents in the in the home, who pushed 726 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:11,800 education for me. Who taught me how to speak for 727 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,100 myself and stand up for myself. That does not for everyone 728 00:39:15,100 --> 00:39:17,900 doesn't have that. So having that privilege and 729 00:39:17,900 --> 00:39:20,100 understanding and knowing when something doesn't feel right, 730 00:39:20,100 --> 00:39:22,700 something is off. It's something that was an 8 for 731 00:39:22,700 --> 00:39:26,300 me, but coming in, to answer your question as a nurse that 732 00:39:26,300 --> 00:39:31,000 nursing gut. Gives me a leg up that that 733 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,000 knowledge of like, oh something is awesome. 734 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,600 Things about to pop off. That patient is looking a little 735 00:39:37,700 --> 00:39:38,500 Mmm. Yeah. 736 00:39:38,500 --> 00:39:45,100 That outside the room like that? I can tell we have an innate 737 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:48,600 like emotional intelligence is huge and we could talk to 738 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:50,300 someone and be like, oh, you're a schemer. 739 00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:54,200 I'm not doing this with you like your shady, your shade. 740 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,500 Yeah. And so like as a nurse I think 741 00:39:56,500 --> 00:39:58,900 that's something that is Unstoppable. 742 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:00,100 Bubble. But they have something I didn't 743 00:40:00,100 --> 00:40:02,400 have. Is that knowledge but I went and 744 00:40:02,500 --> 00:40:05,700 I, you found it first before it. Yes, yes. 745 00:40:06,300 --> 00:40:09,000 So yeah. Yes, no. 746 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,700 And that was one of the things I was thinking about as you were 747 00:40:10,700 --> 00:40:12,700 talking. I was like, so, one of the 748 00:40:12,700 --> 00:40:16,000 things I love is that you call yourself privileged because 749 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:20,300 privileged, because all of us have a leg up in one way or 750 00:40:20,300 --> 00:40:23,700 another, and one of us may or may not all of us have something 751 00:40:23,700 --> 00:40:26,100 that brings all of us, all of us. 752 00:40:26,100 --> 00:40:28,600 So, like, you can I stay a lot of us live in the United States. 753 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,500 Without a bomb dropping on her head privilege. 754 00:40:33,500 --> 00:40:36,300 We not see what happened in Afghanistan. 755 00:40:36,300 --> 00:40:39,300 Women can't go to school now privileged, I don't want to hear 756 00:40:39,300 --> 00:40:42,800 a damn thing about we have Internet. 757 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,300 We are on the same page because yeah, it was one of the things 758 00:40:46,300 --> 00:40:49,100 that really bothered me was that there's this rhetoric and that's 759 00:40:49,100 --> 00:40:50,400 one thing, that's why I bring it up. 760 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,200 What did you have to overcome? Because we're all overcoming 761 00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,300 something regardless of the color of our skin regardless of 762 00:40:56,300 --> 00:40:59,100 our age or background wherever we came from. 763 00:40:59,300 --> 00:41:02,500 We're having to overcome some all of us, all of us. 764 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,100 And so I have a, I look at my, they're like, oh, you had a 765 00:41:06,100 --> 00:41:07,500 friend.

Like we have a special people 781 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,200 living listening to this podcast right now. 782 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,100 We are top earners more than that more often than not. 783 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,300 Now, the people who are listening, as we are top earners 784 00:42:01,300 --> 00:42:04,900 in the world.

We say, Hey, listen. 790 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,700 These are things that are hard because I had immigrant parents. 791 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,100 These are things that were easy because I had immigrant parents. 792 00:42:24,300 --> 00:42:26,600 I hate my parents that were like, education, always. 793 00:42:26,900 --> 00:42:28,200 And I also have a great parent that. 794 00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:30,500 I was like, okay. So I don't really understand the 795 00:42:30,500 --> 00:42:32,300 English that. Well, right understanding, what 796 00:42:32,300 --> 00:42:34,200 I'm saying words wrong and there's things that I mean. 797 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:42,300 Yes it's under pit and I was like my dad was like what's 798 00:42:42,300 --> 00:42:44,500 under pay. And I was like, you know, the 799 00:42:44,500 --> 00:42:48,900 pit under your arm and my dad was like, it's called armpit I 800 00:42:48,900 --> 00:42:50,100 know. What are you teaching? 801 00:42:50,100 --> 00:42:54,100 Our kids, you know it was just that was like for me, right? 802 00:42:54,100 --> 00:42:57,000 And it was a beautiful part of it but it's also one of the 803 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,100 things that's like well I mean that was a little difficult. 804 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,400 Like going to school right out. Like I was calling things are 805 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:02,700 wrong. They because my moms Puerto 806 00:43:02,700 --> 00:43:03,400 Rican. Funny. 807 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,300 That was so me. Yes, you know, but you're so 808 00:43:06,300 --> 00:43:08,500 right. And it's like, I also do want to 809 00:43:08,500 --> 00:43:12,400 say, I can sit here and be like, I never wanted for food. 810 00:43:12,500 --> 00:43:17,300 I never had to think twice about dinner being on the table. 811 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,200 Yeah, am I ought to be good? But it was their right? 812 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:24,400 And I will not sit here and also say that, you know, those days 813 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,100 my mom is like we don't have money for McDonald like we don't 814 00:43:27,100 --> 00:43:29,100 have money for that if I do want to acknowledge. 815 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:33,200 There are people who come from some very rough circumstances 816 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,300 that things that I don't even like, I can't even imagine are 817 00:43:37,300 --> 00:43:42,000 happening to them and I want. And so in terms of privilege, 818 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:46,000 and when I say that word, that's what I mean, I have never have 819 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,200 to wonder about food, shelter, water, anything, and so I can't 820 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,300 even speak to those experiences of people who have. 821 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:56,100 And so, when we come on these podcasts, and we talk about 822 00:43:56,100 --> 00:43:59,800 these things, and why I preach and say, all the The as much as 823 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:03,500 I can, it's for those types of people who don't have who aren't 824 00:44:03,500 --> 00:44:06,500 in the networks that I'm in, who aren't in the rooms that I'm in. 825 00:44:06,900 --> 00:44:10,200 So I'm going to come out here and just say in hopes that we 826 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:13,300 all can reach those points and Pinnacles of life. 827 00:44:13,300 --> 00:44:15,600 But we're not. Having a scrap and fight all the 828 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,100 time for everything. Yes. 829 00:44:17,100 --> 00:44:19,900 If that's what a lot of people's real world experiences are. 830 00:44:19,900 --> 00:44:21,600 Yes. And because I think what you're 831 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:24,500 saying is so poignant because it is true, there are people that 832 00:44:24,500 --> 00:44:27,700 have struggles that we have no idea what they're going through. 833 00:44:27,700 --> 00:44:30,500 And when I hear about my mom and She was raised in Puerto Rico 834 00:44:30,700 --> 00:44:34,500 and the things that she endured to get to the United States and 835 00:44:34,500 --> 00:44:38,900 how she is so Scrappy and such a hard time because of what she 836 00:44:38,900 --> 00:44:41,400 came from. And realizing I one generation 837 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:44,400 separated from that, just one it's humbling. 838 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:48,100 But it also makes me realize like, I've got no bills uses 839 00:44:48,100 --> 00:44:52,200 because my mom literally had to go get water from a well, and 840 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,400 bring, okay. It's like we don't understand 841 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,800 what it was. No, we have no understanding 842 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,500 about none. So, So again, and my mom isn't 843 00:45:00,500 --> 00:45:01,700 that privilege. She's one of the hardest working 844 00:45:01,700 --> 00:45:03,400 people. My dad literally was says, she 845 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,700 will work you under the table. You can't out work, right? 846 00:45:05,700 --> 00:45:09,400 Is in her 60s, you know? So it's that mentality of just 847 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,500 been through it. And again it was tough but at 848 00:45:12,500 --> 00:45:15,300 the same time she doesn't focus and fixate on it. 849 00:45:15,300 --> 00:45:20,700 And for example like our examples are work work your ass 850 00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:24,300 off like yeah. And I hate that that there's 851 00:45:24,300 --> 00:45:28,100 like a love-hate. Like you need hard work for the 852 00:45:28,100 --> 00:45:33,600 it's 2022 by. 20:23 and unfortunately hard work is the 853 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,400 currency right now. My goal is for hard work. 854 00:45:37,500 --> 00:45:40,400 Hard beating like struggle not to be the currency of my 855 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,800 children. I don't want that to have to be 856 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:46,400 what they Exchange in the world to be seen as valuable, to be 857 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:51,400 seen as a person to be treated the same, and like a lot of us 858 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,000 right now. We are changing that for our 859 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,800 future Generations right now. Hard work is our currency. 860 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:05,200 Yeah, hard. Yeah, so and so by working hard 861 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,100 and working smart, which is what you're doing right now. 862 00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:13,100 You allow the generation behind you to work creatively to work 863 00:46:13,100 --> 00:46:16,000 out of a sense of overflow to not be stressed and think if I 864 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,600 don't, I'm not going to be able to pursue that, I'm not going to 865 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,700 be able to work in the lychee guy. 866 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:25,100 Any guy, icky guy. I'm glad to work in that spot. 867 00:46:25,100 --> 00:46:28,600 It would be so great if you were able to be launched into the 868 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,800 world working in that zone, yeah. 869 00:46:32,100 --> 00:46:35,000 Hi, that you can just go like this is where I started and to 870 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,700 have such a fulfilling career from the beginning. 871 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:41,100 And by doing this work for ourselves, we can then put that 872 00:46:41,100 --> 00:46:43,700 next Generation onto the app in a different way, which I think 873 00:46:43,700 --> 00:46:46,400 is really, really cool. So what is one thing? 874 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:51,300 If you could go back to yourself and say, are you sure your brand 875 00:46:51,300 --> 00:46:53,600 new? What is one thing you would have 876 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:58,400 told her to hold onto piece of advice, you know, going forth 877 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,600 marching forward and thinking about all these ideas and one 878 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,600 thing you would tell her when you Hear this. 879 00:47:02,700 --> 00:47:04,500 This is garbage. Throw it away. 880 00:47:04,700 --> 00:47:07,700 So with one thing I hold onto one piece, throw it away as 881 00:47:07,700 --> 00:47:11,800 crap. One laughs I'm sorry it's too 882 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:15,500 two things. I would hold onto is one people 883 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,700 meet you as deeply as they have met themselves. 884 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:27,000 So when you have that snotty-nosed care nurse on the 885 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:31,200 unit, who you just can't understand why she's so mean to 886 00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:37,900 you, why she won't help you. That is truly hurt insides 887 00:47:37,900 --> 00:47:43,600 coming out and maybe no one helped her, maybe her husband 888 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:47,400 cheated on her last week and still no excuse, but that has 889 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:51,000 nothing to do with you. You are not a bad nurse, you're 890 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,500 not a bad woman. You're not a bad man, they 891 00:47:53,500 --> 00:47:56,700 whatever you identify as you are. 892 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,200 So worthy of someone treating you appropriately. 893 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,600 So that's something that I would keep. 894 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:06,400 Second thing I would keep is do not listen to a soul who has not 895 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,100 done what you're trying to do, but what comes out of their 896 00:48:09,100 --> 00:48:14,700 mouth does not fucking matter.

This on and you just drop off 998 00:53:51,900 --> 00:53:55,100 like that's probably Yeah, but at the same time, like think it 999 00:53:55,100 --> 00:53:57,200 through like why do you want to jump off the bridge while it's 1000 00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:58,900 on my bucket list? Okay, well maybe we should get a 1001 00:53:58,900 --> 00:54:01,300 bungee cord, maybe we should do the things that are going to 1002 00:54:01,308 --> 00:54:10,500 help you make the right and so and so my fears around like 1003 00:54:10,500 --> 00:54:13,500 making the moves and the risk and people say oh it's risky and 1004 00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:16,800 all this other stuff nursing to me, is that bungee cord. 1005 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:21,100 It's that harness. Its whoa, that's my safety net. 1006 00:54:21,300 --> 00:54:24,500 Come on girls. That I said, I mentioned earlier 1007 00:54:24,500 --> 00:54:27,800 actually what it is. Hit the fan, I will go pick up 1008 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:33,000 an extra 10 shifts like that and I made the money back. 1009 00:54:33,500 --> 00:54:36,100 There was a point. I lost 11,000 dollars two years 1010 00:54:36,100 --> 00:54:39,500 ago, I invested into this bus thing that was I was going to 1011 00:54:39,500 --> 00:54:42,300 put on outdoorsy front of us. Yeah. 1012 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:46,000 And you know, learned about contracts person, you know, we 1013 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:50,000 made a verbal Compton didn't abide by it and I invested 1014 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,500 eleven thousand dollars and he's like, well, you know, that's 1015 00:54:52,500 --> 00:54:55,100 After down payment and the contract says, blah blah, blah. 1016 00:54:55,600 --> 00:55:00,000 Oh this how y'all work. And there was a point where I 1017 00:55:00,008 --> 00:55:04,600 was like, either I can hold on to this money, this 11,000 or I 1018 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,400 can release it and say it's going to come back to me. 1019 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:09,500 It's a lot of money to me at the time. 1020 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,600 No, it's a lot of money 11,000 a lot of money? 1021 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:13,400 Yes, a lot of money. Yeah. 1022 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:16,300 And I realize one day, I just sat there and I said I'm gonna 1023 00:55:16,300 --> 00:55:18,000 release it that money that 11,000. 1024 00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:21,700 I was going to come back around. And I think six months later, I 1025 00:55:21,700 --> 00:55:25,300 paid 18,000 dollars to get to a coaching course, put it on my 1026 00:55:25,300 --> 00:55:30,500 credit cards. And I opened up my first course, 1027 00:55:30,500 --> 00:55:34,100 like a line Hive and made 50,000 dollars, like coaching people, 1028 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:39,700 and I just remember being like, OK, I have to, like, let things 1029 00:55:39,700 --> 00:55:42,900 go after let fear go. It was like such a lesson and 1030 00:55:42,900 --> 00:55:46,100 what you hold onto and grip. So tight, you can suck the life 1031 00:55:46,100 --> 00:55:49,600 out of it. And so releasing acknowledging 1032 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:51,800 this because I was afraid I've never make any money. 1033 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,700 I was afraid that was one of my worst fears is losing money. 1034 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,500 Yeah. I'm gonna make a bad investment. 1035 00:55:57,500 --> 00:56:01,500 I'm going to lose money. Yeah, like money is so cyclical. 1036 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,100 It's like a relation a I could talk all day or so. 1037 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:04,900 Yeah. That was going to say. 1038 00:56:04,900 --> 00:56:07,600 There's like a lot of trauma on money that people. 1039 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:09,800 Well, that's rude about this.
