I hear your feelings. I hear your thoughts. 90 00:04:46.280 --> 00:04:48.280 And I think. 91 00:04:48.280 --> 00:04:58.280 This is where we zoom out. 92 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:05.520 world and here's what I was like I literally had the thought I was like I'm sure some of you are 93 00:05:05.520 --> 00:05:12.800 going to be discouraged after reading this and so I was I'm I sensed it so I'm right there with you 94 00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:20.480 by the way and I think what's really important about this whole book and about this whole kind 95 00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:27.520 of season we've just kind of stepped into of like looking at scaling is that number one it's not for 96 00:05:27.520 --> 00:05:36.800 everybody and it's not for every season and we have to remember he he couldn't even find somebody 97 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:47.760 to work with him because of how high his own floor is and that really wasn't actually very shocking 98 00:05:47.760 --> 00:05:54.880 to me because of how how he's gone about you know what he's built but let's let's also take a step 99 00:05:54.880 --> 00:06:00.240 back and say okay he wants to work directly with people who are ready to scale their business 10x 100 00:06:01.440 --> 00:06:07.360 and and that's not I and and I think we can take that with a grain of salt and I don't and like 101 00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:13.840 looking even at Steven how Steven scales it is it is different from I believe what this book just 102 00:06:13.840 --> 00:06:20.400 kind of taught us and like kind of revealed you know Steven has had to make some hard decisions 103 00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:28.800 over the years but it was more you know not because he has this crazy impossible goal but I do think 104 00:06:30.320 --> 00:06:37.360 um yeah it was really yeah I mean I'm acknowledging both of your your feelings and 105 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:43.520 just zooming out for a second of like okay I don't I hear you and I think this isn't for 106 00:06:43.520 --> 00:06:50.880 everybody and I think he's trying to he's trying to make scaling more realistic and I think we kind 107 00:06:50.880 --> 00:06:57.600 of came into like his way of thinking and his vision um kind of in the beginning of it where 108 00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:02.640 it's like being just released kind of into the world I mean he just wrote the book and just 109 00:07:02.640 --> 00:07:10.720 built this company this new company what like a couple months ago or something so yeah I mean I 110 00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:16.640 think the things I acknowledge because I met with Gabby last week and I said you know I can see why 111 00:07:16.640 --> 00:07:23.920 it's pushing some buttons because the whole thing is it's a radical I mean he states it over it's a 112 00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:30.560 radical audacious goal right and it requires radical thinking and what does that make us do 113 00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:36.720 step outside of our comfort zone so it is going to push every single trigger every single button 114 00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:43.600 but that is what you have to do if that is your goal if your goal is to grow and scale and 115 00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:52.720 whatever 10x 5x whatever you do have to do that you can't stay where we're at right now 116 00:07:52.720 --> 00:08:00.320 you have to step out of the comfort and I think the Elon Musk part that hit me was when he said 117 00:08:00.320 --> 00:08:05.200 you know he gave them they said six months and he said you have six weeks and then they didn't 118 00:08:05.200 --> 00:08:11.440 listen anyway and six days he turns his plane around and he goes and cuts the wires himself 119 00:08:11.440 --> 00:08:18.800 and it's like that is radical right but it's insane it is insane but you know what it gets it 120 00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:25.120 done those are the hard decisions it does otherwise what are you doing we're dragging our feet and that 121 00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:32.400 for me is where I feel I am and we are not dragging our feet we are we are working but I don't know if 122 00:08:32.400 --> 00:08:39.919 we're we're spinning the hamster wheel and I don't know if everything we're doing is moving the 123 00:08:39.919 --> 00:08:44.960 business forward or if we're just making work and spinning our wheel and then getting distracted by 124 00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:50.480 the noises and so I think that's where it really hit home with me I mean it definitely is radical 125 00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:58.640 and making you step outside of your comfort zone but otherwise you procrastinate you procrastinate 126 00:08:58.640 --> 00:09:05.280 it can you know when you make excuses you make excuses and you justify why it's okay to just 127 00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:12.160 stay where you are and that's okay if you're okay with that I'm not okay with that that's where I'm 128 00:09:12.160 --> 00:09:19.920 at in my journey that I'm not okay with that yeah I wonder if you could make like a flow chart or a 129 00:09:19.920 --> 00:09:27.600 a wheel or a filter to say like you know is this moving the needle forward and if so how 130 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:33.840 and so like every time you put something on your to-do list or like you add something that you're 131 00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:40.960 going to do you have a grading rubric to say like how is this actually helping is this a distraction 132 00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:47.840 or is this actually going to get me where I want to go um and then like you know in your to-do 133 00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:54.080 list or wherever you're maintaining what you're going to do for the week like you put on there 134 00:09:54.080 --> 00:09:59.840 like your rubric like this is going to help blah blah blah so I think you know Steven gave an example 135 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:02.440 before where he would put dollar signs. 136 00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:04.000 If something was like something 137 00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:05.600 that was gonna generate revenue, 138 00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:07.160 he had like a number of dollar signs 139 00:10:07.160 --> 00:10:09.280 beside it, how much revenue he expected. 140 00:10:09.280 --> 00:10:11.680 Otherwise it was just like a task, for example. 141 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:18.120 And I like coordinate my things in buckets of time 142 00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:19.280 of what I'm gonna do 143 00:10:19.280 --> 00:10:22.400 and like how much time I'll allow for certain things. 144 00:10:22.400 --> 00:10:26.000 And then, you know, prioritize in that bucket 145 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:29.340 based on how valuable that thing is to me 146 00:10:29.380 --> 00:10:32.220 based on my own like internal rubric. 147 00:10:32.220 --> 00:10:35.100 I wonder if you could develop something like that 148 00:10:35.980 --> 00:10:38.480 and then you can do that Eisenhower matrix 149 00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:39.320 where you're just like, 150 00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:41.180 oh, I might wanna delete that completely 151 00:10:41.180 --> 00:10:43.340 or I might wanna keep it, but delegate it. 152 00:10:46.500 --> 00:10:48.300 I like, I do have that written, 153 00:10:48.300 --> 00:10:51.560 like I have that in my, on my thing every day. 154 00:10:51.560 --> 00:10:53.620 Like, is this moving the needle? 155 00:10:53.620 --> 00:10:56.880 Like that's like my, on the top of every paper. 156 00:10:56.880 --> 00:10:58.600 Like, and then when we make our to-do list, 157 00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:00.120 like that is what I evaluate, 158 00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:02.560 but sometimes, you know, 159 00:11:02.560 --> 00:11:04.520 things get in there that shouldn't. 160 00:11:05.520 --> 00:11:07.120 Sure, absolutely. 161 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:10.040 And do you also block off rest 162 00:11:10.040 --> 00:11:13.000 or like self-care exercise blocks, 163 00:11:13.000 --> 00:11:16.080 where it's like you give yourself permission 164 00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:19.720 to just like feel and take a break 165 00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:21.660 and don't have to be productive? 166 00:11:22.560 --> 00:11:24.680 That's funny, I don't. 167 00:11:24.680 --> 00:11:27.120 And you know, I've been sick. 168 00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:30.340 So I think that's like me. 169 00:11:34.160 --> 00:11:37.400 Because that's equally important alongside building. 170 00:11:37.400 --> 00:11:38.720 Yeah. 171 00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:39.560 Yeah. 172 00:11:39.560 --> 00:11:41.360 Because it also gives your brain a rest. 173 00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:42.180 Exactly. 174 00:11:42.180 --> 00:11:44.600 To then be like, oh, that is important. 175 00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:47.240 And this is why, and this is why it's gonna help me. 176 00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:50.400 But you know, if your brain is constantly jumbled 177 00:11:50.400 --> 00:11:53.760 with like, what is that called? 178 00:11:53.760 --> 00:11:56.400 Like it's some negative hormone 179 00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:57.480 that you're not supposed to have, 180 00:11:57.480 --> 00:12:00.520 the opposite of dopamine, whatever, cortisol maybe. 181 00:12:00.520 --> 00:12:01.560 Cortisol. 182 00:12:01.560 --> 00:12:04.140 Yeah, it's just like jumbled with the cortisol. 183 00:12:04.140 --> 00:12:08.800 It's hard to like, it's hard for me to get perspective. 184 00:12:08.800 --> 00:12:10.120 Like you would get if you went on 185 00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:12.080 like a 30 minute walk outside 186 00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:15.920 and then you came back and felt a different level. 187 00:12:18.040 --> 00:12:20.460 Yeah, 30 minute walk, 30 minute nap. 188 00:12:22.400 --> 00:12:24.640 Something, 30 minutes, something. 189 00:12:24.640 --> 00:12:25.460 Yeah. 190 00:12:26.300 --> 00:12:27.740 Mm-hmm, good. 191 00:12:27.740 --> 00:12:31.380 I wanna say, so I also have not, 192 00:12:31.380 --> 00:12:34.540 you know, initially when he quoted Elon Musk 193 00:12:34.540 --> 00:12:36.860 earlier in the book, I was kinda like, eh, 194 00:12:36.860 --> 00:12:38.300 you know, not my favorite. 195 00:12:38.300 --> 00:12:41.720 What I've done though is, I'm just kinda, 196 00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:46.500 as I'm listening, I've just removed in a way 197 00:12:46.500 --> 00:12:51.140 what I know maybe about people that he's using as examples, 198 00:12:51.140 --> 00:12:51.980 which is very few. 199 00:12:51.980 --> 00:12:54.860 I really don't stay on top of things very much. 200 00:12:55.300 --> 00:12:59.300 And I'm just trying to listen for the lesson in it. 201 00:13:00.460 --> 00:13:03.420 And I'm kinda operating with an ounce of maybe delusion 202 00:13:03.420 --> 00:13:05.460 of just like, I'm just gonna assume 203 00:13:05.460 --> 00:13:08.060 he's just using these people as like literal, 204 00:13:08.060 --> 00:13:11.820 just examples because of things that they've, you know, 205 00:13:11.820 --> 00:13:14.900 done, you know, they have scaled, you know, 206 00:13:14.900 --> 00:13:17.700 regardless of their morality and things like that. 207 00:13:17.700 --> 00:13:19.540 So it's kinda helped me a little bit, 208 00:13:20.860 --> 00:13:22.460 with just like listening to all the different people 209 00:13:22.460 --> 00:13:24.100 and kinda keep it more objective 210 00:13:24.140 --> 00:13:26.020 where I'm listening for, yeah, 211 00:13:26.020 --> 00:13:30.580 that like, what was the radical thing that they did? 212 00:13:30.580 --> 00:13:32.540 And Kerry, honestly, I feel like you were just like 213 00:13:32.540 --> 00:13:34.220 spewing fire a minute ago 214 00:13:35.060 --> 00:13:37.960 with how you were just like summarizing everything. 215 00:13:39.940 --> 00:13:44.940 It is, you know, scaling anything, 10x-ing, 100x-ing, 216 00:13:45.820 --> 00:13:47.900 whatever your x is of anything, 217 00:13:47.900 --> 00:13:51.100 it is a, it's a radical move in and of itself. 218 00:13:52.100 --> 00:13:52.940 Right? 219 00:13:52.940 --> 00:13:54.140 It is. It is. 220 00:13:54.140 --> 00:13:54.980 It's radical. 221 00:13:56.100 --> 00:13:59.620 And so it, there's, I liked your point of like, 222 00:13:59.620 --> 00:14:02.220 it's gonna call you into radical things. 223 00:14:02.220 --> 00:14:07.220 And sometimes that's gonna really be irritating. 224 00:14:09.380 --> 00:14:12.460 For me, it's like, I would say for me, it's like, 225 00:14:12.460 --> 00:14:14.380 I don't think frustrating is the right word. 226 00:14:14.380 --> 00:14:18.380 It's more of like, it just kinda makes me mad 227 00:14:18.380 --> 00:14:23.380 because like, why can't I just have these things now? 228 00:14:29.180 --> 00:14:34.020 Like, honestly, I just, you know, I'm like, I'm tired. 229 00:14:34.020 --> 00:14:35.620 My heart's tired. 230 00:14:35.620 --> 00:14:38.780 I, you know, there's a lot going on in our life. 231 00:14:38.780 --> 00:14:42.020 It's just like, why does something have to be kinda, 232 00:14:42.020 --> 00:14:46.180 in my way, what my head says is require more of me. 233 00:14:46.220 --> 00:14:47.940 I think there is opportunity there 234 00:14:47.940 --> 00:14:49.900 to change that thought and that belief. 235 00:14:49.900 --> 00:14:54.900 But yeah, that's for me, the holdup is just kinda like, 236 00:14:55.060 --> 00:14:56.180 sometimes it's a little deflating 237 00:14:56.180 --> 00:14:59.100 because I'm just like, I don't have any more to give. 238 00:14:59.100 --> 00:15:00.300 And I think that's true. 239 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.280 Like what Daniel was saying, there's a season and I think I've said all this to you guys 240 00:15:05.280 --> 00:15:09.400 before on Office Hours or one of our calls, it's just, you know, I feel like my family's 241 00:15:09.400 --> 00:15:13.560 in a season of not building as far as a business. 242 00:15:13.560 --> 00:15:15.600 We're building other things. 243 00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:21.440 I'm trying to build other things that feel very hard, you know, and I, in a way, that's 244 00:15:21.440 --> 00:15:26.480 why this book has applied to me in like my personal life because I'm willing to take 245 00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:32.280 radical steps in my personal life to have the kind of life that we want, things that 246 00:15:32.280 --> 00:15:33.280 we value. 247 00:15:33.280 --> 00:15:40.080 And one thing, I'm kind of going on a tangent here, but he was talking about with like team 248 00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:44.840 members, he's talking about you need people who are like A-level players and all of that 249 00:15:44.840 --> 00:15:50.880 and who are more committed to the results as opposed to the security, which was really 250 00:15:50.880 --> 00:15:58.440 convicting because I was just like, okay, I was like, I, I want some process sometimes 251 00:15:58.440 --> 00:16:02.720 just like the security to fall back on things. 252 00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:09.400 But I was thinking about in terms of my marriage and I'm by far the reckless one for sure, 253 00:16:09.400 --> 00:16:12.240 spontaneous, reckless one. 254 00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:19.480 And this is definitely played out where like I feel like I can take radical steps and my 255 00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:25.560 husband leans on the safety security side of things a lot more. 256 00:16:25.560 --> 00:16:30.280 And it's just been, wow, like we've been having to navigate that, I guess is what I'm saying. 257 00:16:30.280 --> 00:16:34.920 And I think each of us has the opportunity, whether it's in our relationships or in workplace 258 00:16:34.920 --> 00:16:43.080 relationships or whatever, of just how do we, I think this is part of the noise carry 259 00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:48.800 where it's because at the day-to-day level and these decisions things, it is messy. 260 00:16:48.800 --> 00:16:52.840 Like it takes these little moments, these little conversations that are nitty and gritty 261 00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:57.880 and it's like, it creates this noise that distracts from the bigger picture, but I don't 262 00:16:57.880 --> 00:17:05.640 think it makes it any less critical to the process and important. 263 00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:12.079 And it does sometimes forces the timeline to change too. 264 00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:15.760 And that's also something that I think we hold with loose hands, like not loose hands, 265 00:17:15.760 --> 00:17:20.520 but kind of open where it's like, we have this impossible and we set this intention. 266 00:17:20.520 --> 00:17:24.400 It's a very real intention, but we also know life is not perfect. 267 00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:26.319 Our journeys are not linear. 268 00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.280 So things come up and we kind of do like this. 269 00:17:29.280 --> 00:17:31.600 So that was my tangent for the day. 270 00:17:36.560 --> 00:17:43.120 He talks, I think another kind of thought within scaling and within this chapter is 271 00:17:43.160 --> 00:17:45.280 going from good to great. 272 00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:50.000 And in order to do that, like going beyond yourself, right? 273 00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:57.280 So it's like his idea is like hire this super who instead of 10 mediocre people. 274 00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:04.000 I actually, again, it depends on what you want as a business owner. 275 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.640 And I just, let's take his thoughts as just new ways of thinking. 276 00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:12.240 Because who knows down the road, Christy, when you get your business up and going, you 277 00:18:12.640 --> 00:18:17.080 might, you know, you're a million dollar one and you start realizing, oh my gosh, I can't 278 00:18:17.080 --> 00:18:18.040 manage 10 people. 279 00:18:18.040 --> 00:18:25.480 If only I had one person who was an expert in this area that I could hire, boom, maybe 280 00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:31.040 that's like, maybe that's the moment where this like lands for you in that, who knows? 281 00:18:31.040 --> 00:18:35.720 We don't know where all of these nuggets are going to ultimately be needed in your 282 00:18:35.720 --> 00:18:39.080 journey of entrepreneurship and even life. 283 00:18:39.080 --> 00:18:46.600 Because I want to, I mean, he talks about creating something beyond ourselves and growth 284 00:18:46.600 --> 00:18:48.280 and impact beyond us. 285 00:18:48.280 --> 00:18:50.400 I think that's something we can all agree on, right? 286 00:18:50.400 --> 00:18:54.640 You're all wanting to build something that's going to go beyond you, that's familial, 287 00:18:54.640 --> 00:18:59.440 that's generational, that's, you know, whether you're working or not, it's something 288 00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:05.520 that's continuing and not necessarily financially, but, you know, legacy and like 289 00:19:05.520 --> 00:19:07.400 passing things on to your children. 290 00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:13.960 And, okay, Elon Musk has a crazy, crazy idea that we're going to live in Mars. 291 00:19:14.800 --> 00:19:16.040 Do I believe that? 292 00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:25.880 No, no, but I don't take his same beliefs as a person in general, but he was, he's 293 00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:29.000 willing to risk his reputation and his wealth. 294 00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:35.440 So this is a dedicated person to a dedicated mission and my, you know, at the end, it is 295 00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:39.440 a good question for each of us to ponder, like, is this a dedicated mission? 296 00:19:39.440 --> 00:19:45.280 Is this something worth spending reputation and or wealth on? 297 00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:48.680 And Elon is showing that, you know, he's just one example. 298 00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:54.400 He's an extreme example, but I mean, he's literally changing the world and maybe some 299 00:19:54.400 --> 00:19:57.120 of us will go on to change the world and maybe some of us won't. 300 00:19:57.720 --> 00:19:59.880 But it had me thinking this. 301 00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.760 Like are you you know, are you guys are you girls working on things? Are you feeling that passion? 302 00:20:05.760 --> 00:20:10.440 Are you feeling that like, okay, I'm willing to like risk certain things. It's worth it. You know, I 303 00:20:11.240 --> 00:20:14.240 Think that was like a good takeaway for me to be thinking about 304 00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:21.140 Just as like a litmus for seeing somebody who's actually doing that 305 00:20:21.140 --> 00:20:25.440 I look at Jesus to like he was willing to give up his reputation and his life 306 00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:27.920 for his mission 307 00:20:27.920 --> 00:20:29.920 He was solely focused 308 00:20:30.280 --> 00:20:33.000 and he did it at whatever cost it was and 309 00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:35.280 and 310 00:20:35.280 --> 00:20:40.040 It takes a lot of courage and grit. He says that he says that this scaling is not for the faint of heart 311 00:20:40.040 --> 00:20:41.840 He said that 312 00:20:41.840 --> 00:20:43.840 You know, it also isn't for the faint of heart 313 00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:46.960 building a business period 314 00:20:49.280 --> 00:20:55.440 That's not for the faint of heart we talk about this it takes things it takes a lot and 315 00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:58.160 And 316 00:20:58.200 --> 00:21:00.200 You know radical shifts 317 00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:05.040 And and so yeah one of the thing I wanted to share and then I'd love to hear from Michaela or 318 00:21:05.400 --> 00:21:07.400 Lauren if you guys have anything you want to share 319 00:21:08.320 --> 00:21:12.720 Kind of talking about the chapter here, but he you know, it was really interesting to me that he was 320 00:21:13.680 --> 00:21:15.200 as 321 00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:18.920 He was having a hard time. He's Ben Hardy 322 00:21:19.680 --> 00:21:23.360 Talks with top business owners in the world. Okay, I think we all agree on that 323 00:21:23.360 --> 00:21:27.200 He said that the fact that he couldn't even find people who wanted to work with him 324 00:21:28.160 --> 00:21:32.520 That was like really insane to me. I don't know about you guys. I was like, whoa, you have really like 325 00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:37.880 Doing what you are talking about and I have a lot of respect for that 326 00:21:38.360 --> 00:21:44.440 you know, there's a lot of people out here who wanting fame wanting all these things and they're not actually maybe their lives like a 327 00:21:44.440 --> 00:21:46.200 lighting with it and 328 00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:50.560 It made me think about because he said if you're not if you're not ready for accountability 329 00:21:51.320 --> 00:21:53.640 Like you're you know, you're not ready for a star players 330 00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:59.160 You're not ready to scale and I think that that doesn't have to be a shameful thing. I think that can just be okay 331 00:21:59.160 --> 00:22:02.060 That's fine. Not everyone's there. That's okay 332 00:22:02.600 --> 00:22:06.120 You know, um this guy I was dating 333 00:22:07.040 --> 00:22:09.840 Friday night completely ended things out of the blue 334 00:22:10.600 --> 00:22:12.280 yep, just 335 00:22:12.280 --> 00:22:16.320 Called me it's over. I don't I don't want to see you anymore 336 00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:19.000 and 337 00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:21.000 You know why? 338 00:22:21.880 --> 00:22:24.520 This is why without this is my own words 339 00:22:24.520 --> 00:22:29.640 I'm gonna say share it to you guys because this is gonna show up in other areas of our lives than just business this book 340 00:22:29.640 --> 00:22:31.640 I brought like it's already happening in my life to 341 00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:33.440 my floor 342 00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:35.440 Was too high 343 00:22:35.840 --> 00:22:39.460 He could not he actually admitted 344 00:22:40.320 --> 00:22:43.920 my wealth and health goals are not in alignment with his and 345 00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:47.240 In fact, he doesn't actually want 346 00:22:48.240 --> 00:22:53.840 To strive and I'm like I are I already don't have respect for that. That's not gonna work 347 00:22:54.360 --> 00:22:58.080 You know, and so he he was honest with me. He wasn't actually honest 348 00:22:58.080 --> 00:23:03.280 It all came out in a phone call on Friday, but whatever but it made me realize. Oh, right 349 00:23:03.280 --> 00:23:05.880 You don't want a certain accountability in your life. I 350 00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:10.600 Don't even need to talk about how I'm healthy. We didn't talk about this stuff 351 00:23:10.600 --> 00:23:14.600 He picked it up from our conversations and me showing up in the life. I'm living 352 00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:22.960 Right, so if we we continue to live our life living conviction live in where we're called I think that is so 353 00:23:23.800 --> 00:23:26.280 extremely important and valuable and 354 00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:35.160 can also be scaled at the right time because if our if our floor in our seat far if our floor is not 355 00:23:36.520 --> 00:23:38.320 even in alignment 356 00:23:38.320 --> 00:23:40.800 Right, how can how can there be scaling? 357 00:23:40.800 --> 00:23:44.720 So I think it was a good thing for me to wake up and be like, okay. Well, wait a minute 358 00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:50.960 Maybe my business isn't looking ready to scale but my my love life. Oh, I've scaled. I'm a scaled woman 359 00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:54.400 I'm a top-value woman and I know what I'm looking for 360 00:23:54.400 --> 00:23:57.800 And that's why a lot of men don't act out of coming to my path don't actually want to be with me 361 00:23:58.720 --> 00:24:03.080 Mainly because they don't want they're not in alignment, you know, and that's not a bad thing anymore 362 00:24:03.080 --> 00:24:07.560 It just is what it is and I'm proud of like who I am and what I'm creating and where I'm going 363 00:24:08.520 --> 00:24:10.520 So I thought that was interesting 364 00:24:10.680 --> 00:24:15.320 How some of the I think some of these things are going to show up also in your personal lives, too 365 00:24:15.320 --> 00:24:21.160 And this is just good knowledge to have like going forward as you're building businesses and being in in life. So 366 00:24:21.800 --> 00:24:23.800 Yeah 367 00:24:25.960 --> 00:24:31.160 Lauren or Michaela do y'all want to share anything from the from chapter six a takeaway or 368 00:24:31.960 --> 00:24:33.960 I'm actually 369 00:24:34.120 --> 00:24:36.680 Listening to the audio book so I didn't listen to chapter six yet 370 00:24:37.000 --> 00:24:40.280 but I do want to kind of speak to what you're talking about Danielle because I think 371 00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:46.040 That it's really aligned with kind of what I've been dealing with over the last couple of months probably 372 00:24:46.680 --> 00:24:54.440 like all the changes that I've been going through personally and professionally and you know starting this business I've 373 00:24:54.880 --> 00:24:59.960 changed a lot and like I and my expectations for life and what I 374 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:01.600 want out of life have changed. 375 00:25:01.600 --> 00:25:05.400 And that has actually caused a lot of rifts 376 00:25:05.400 --> 00:25:08.520 in my relationship with my husband. 377 00:25:08.520 --> 00:25:11.200 And like, it's like brought all these things to light 378 00:25:11.200 --> 00:25:13.780 that I didn't see before. 379 00:25:13.780 --> 00:25:15.920 And try not to get emotional, 380 00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:19.440 but it's been really challenging because it's, you know, 381 00:25:19.440 --> 00:25:22.560 this is someone who I loved deeply and care for 382 00:25:22.560 --> 00:25:25.000 and have been with for 15 years. 383 00:25:25.000 --> 00:25:28.040 And I mean, we're fighting now about like, 384 00:25:28.040 --> 00:25:29.640 just what you're talking about, 385 00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:31.780 where we're not on the same page. 386 00:25:31.780 --> 00:25:34.800 We're not aligned in what we want out of life anymore. 387 00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:37.760 And it's challenging because it's like, 388 00:25:37.760 --> 00:25:40.240 I want to drag him along with me 389 00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:43.240 and get him to a place where he is driven 390 00:25:43.240 --> 00:25:45.820 and we are striving for the same things. 391 00:25:45.820 --> 00:25:47.000 And even if they're the different things, 392 00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:50.080 that at least there's alignment in wanting more 393 00:25:50.080 --> 00:25:53.080 and pushing for that and having goals. 394 00:25:53.080 --> 00:25:55.920 And yeah, it's just been, it's been really tough. 395 00:25:55.920 --> 00:26:00.000 And I think it's definitely slowed things down for me 396 00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:01.960 as far as my focus on my business 397 00:26:01.960 --> 00:26:04.880 and even some of like stolen some of that passion 398 00:26:04.880 --> 00:26:05.720 that I have for it. 399 00:26:05.720 --> 00:26:07.540 Because it is, like I said, 400 00:26:07.540 --> 00:26:09.520 it's like creating this like negativity 401 00:26:09.520 --> 00:26:11.040 in other parts of my life. 402 00:26:11.040 --> 00:26:13.760 And then with all of this focus on my personal growth 403 00:26:13.760 --> 00:26:16.560 and kind of these deeper understandings of who I am 404 00:26:16.560 --> 00:26:19.120 and what I want, I feel like I've had to kind of go, 405 00:26:19.120 --> 00:26:21.720 okay, I need to solely focus on this right now 406 00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:23.120 because I just don't have the bandwidth 407 00:26:23.120 --> 00:26:25.900 to do everything all at once. 408 00:26:26.740 --> 00:26:27.740 And it's kind of like having that realization 409 00:26:27.740 --> 00:26:30.700 that like I can do everything that I wanna do in life. 410 00:26:30.700 --> 00:26:32.020 I just can't do it all at once. 411 00:26:32.020 --> 00:26:36.700 And I may not be able to do it with the same people 412 00:26:36.700 --> 00:26:37.540 that I thought I would. 413 00:26:37.540 --> 00:26:38.380 You know what I mean? 414 00:26:38.380 --> 00:26:39.300 And that's a tough pill to swallow. 415 00:26:39.300 --> 00:26:41.620 So it's been really, really hard. 416 00:26:42.620 --> 00:26:43.460 I hear you. 417 00:26:44.460 --> 00:26:45.300 Yeah. 418 00:26:45.300 --> 00:26:48.060 I'm sure everyone on here can relate in one way or another. 419 00:26:49.500 --> 00:26:50.340 Yeah. 420 00:26:51.620 --> 00:26:53.340 I'd love to encourage you Lauren too. 421 00:26:53.340 --> 00:26:55.860 I know we've talked a lot about this recently 422 00:26:56.820 --> 00:26:59.780 and I think one, just from an encouragement standpoint 423 00:26:59.780 --> 00:27:04.460 of like watching your transformation has been pretty cool. 424 00:27:04.460 --> 00:27:08.180 Just in like, I don't know, having many calls with you, 425 00:27:08.180 --> 00:27:10.580 you know, it's just been, it's just really cool. 426 00:27:10.580 --> 00:27:13.300 And I don't, you know, I don't want you to stop. 427 00:27:13.300 --> 00:27:16.500 On the other side, on another note is, 428 00:27:16.500 --> 00:27:19.700 I think different people probably have different beliefs 429 00:27:19.700 --> 00:27:22.600 and values on this, but my perspective is that, 430 00:27:23.600 --> 00:27:26.560 sorry, my daughter just very aggressively closed the door 431 00:27:26.560 --> 00:27:28.160 because apparently I'm too loud. 432 00:27:31.360 --> 00:27:32.200 Bring break guys. 433 00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:35.800 Is that like, in my view, 434 00:27:35.800 --> 00:27:38.600 my marriage is always going to be top priority 435 00:27:38.600 --> 00:27:39.800 before everything else. 436 00:27:40.720 --> 00:27:42.040 And for me, I am a woman of faith. 437 00:27:42.040 --> 00:27:44.480 So my faith is top in my marriage. 438 00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:47.360 My business is never going to go above that. 439 00:27:47.360 --> 00:27:49.840 And I a hundred percent know Steven 440 00:27:49.840 --> 00:27:51.480 and pretty much everyone on our team 441 00:27:51.480 --> 00:27:52.720 would say the same thing. 442 00:27:54.640 --> 00:27:56.720 And what's funny is that, 443 00:27:59.120 --> 00:28:03.560 I think sometimes we are asked to lay down certain things 444 00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:09.320 for something else that we're not expecting to be, 445 00:28:10.640 --> 00:28:13.480 I don't know, up level, jazzed up, 446 00:28:13.480 --> 00:28:17.040 like bless, whatever you want to say, 447 00:28:17.040 --> 00:28:18.640 whatever word you want to input. 448 00:28:18.640 --> 00:28:22.560 And so I know for me, 449 00:28:22.560 --> 00:28:25.720 this was personally true with like business was like, 450 00:28:25.720 --> 00:28:27.480 I needed to kind of lay down, 451 00:28:27.480 --> 00:28:29.240 set aside my business for a little bit 452 00:28:29.240 --> 00:28:32.400 for many other things to have an opportunity 453 00:28:32.400 --> 00:28:34.680 to transform and hit a different level. 454 00:28:36.800 --> 00:28:39.000 My marriage being one of them. 455 00:28:39.000 --> 00:28:41.160 We've been in marriage counseling since August. 456 00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:42.680 And I would say the last couple of years 457 00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:43.720 has been our hardest, 458 00:28:43.720 --> 00:28:47.440 like very well-fought years of marriage. 459 00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:53.720 And I know as hard as it is in the day-to-day 460 00:28:53.720 --> 00:28:55.440 in the conversations and decisions, 461 00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:58.000 I know that it is getting to something 462 00:28:58.000 --> 00:29:00.400 that's even better than what we had. 463 00:29:00.400 --> 00:29:02.920 And I'm not saying that as like a blind promise for you, 464 00:29:02.920 --> 00:29:05.200 but just as an encouragement of like, 465 00:29:06.800 --> 00:29:11.360 in our community, it's okay to say, 466 00:29:11.360 --> 00:29:12.200 basically what you're saying, 467 00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:13.760 like I don't have the bandwidth for everything. 468 00:29:13.760 --> 00:29:16.600 So my business is kind of needing to be maintained 469 00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:18.880 or kind of just, it's on the side here 470 00:29:19.840 --> 00:29:21.880 while I'm maybe focusing on how to navigate 471 00:29:21.880 --> 00:29:24.520 these other things that in my opinion 472 00:29:24.520 --> 00:29:29.520 have way more importance, way more. 473 00:29:32.600 --> 00:29:33.440 I don't know. 474 00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:34.920 I don't know if that's helpful or encouraging at all. 475 00:29:34.920 --> 00:29:36.840 Yeah, no, I agree with you that like, 476 00:29:36.840 --> 00:29:39.280 certainly like my own, 477 00:29:40.600 --> 00:29:43.800 how I, my own personal mental and physical health, 478 00:29:43.800 --> 00:29:46.000 my relationship with my daughter, 479 00:29:46.040 --> 00:29:47.160 my relationship with my husband, 480 00:29:47.160 --> 00:29:49.360 those things are always gonna be at the top. 481 00:29:50.520 --> 00:29:53.400 And obviously business is gonna come secondary, 482 00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:56.160 maybe even third after the nine to five 483 00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:58.040 that actually pays the bills. 484 00:29:58.040 --> 00:30:00.640 And that's unfortunate because it's like not the way. 485 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:04.360 that, not necessarily unfortunate, I obviously think that my family and myself should all 486 00:30:04.360 --> 00:30:08.980 come first, but it's unfortunate that the nine to five sometimes has to take priority 487 00:30:08.980 --> 00:30:13.880 over something that I actually want to put energy into. 488 00:30:13.880 --> 00:30:24.320 But I think I've just come to this realization that if nothing changes in his attitude, I 489 00:30:24.320 --> 00:30:29.920 know that I will be resentful of that, and I will never be happy in that environment. 490 00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:37.560 And so in that sense, I have to kind of go, okay, do I sacrifice what I want out of life 491 00:30:37.560 --> 00:30:41.860 and my dreams and my goals and my aspirations to keep the peace? 492 00:30:41.860 --> 00:30:50.760 Or do I decide that unless he's willing to meet me where I'm at, that it's just not going 493 00:30:50.760 --> 00:30:51.760 to work? 494 00:30:51.760 --> 00:30:52.760 You know what I mean? 495 00:30:52.760 --> 00:30:55.640 I don't know. 496 00:30:55.640 --> 00:31:01.040 He's trying, and I think the best part about this whole thing, as nasty as it feels to 497 00:31:01.040 --> 00:31:05.520 be in this situation, he is trying. 498 00:31:05.520 --> 00:31:09.560 And I'm also being completely open and honest with my feelings probably for the very first 499 00:31:09.560 --> 00:31:13.000 time, because I don't even think I realize some of these things. 500 00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:18.240 And so I don't feel like I'm leaving anything out. 501 00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:23.000 I feel like I'm 100% transparent with how I feel, and he can take that information and 502 00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:24.080 do what he wants with it. 503 00:31:24.080 --> 00:31:28.760 I can't force him to want change in his life, right? 504 00:31:28.760 --> 00:31:34.480 But I know that if he doesn't, then it won't last, you know? 505 00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:35.480 Exactly. 506 00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:44.120 Well, I don't know if you should declare it won't last, like as an ultimatum, you know, 507 00:31:44.120 --> 00:31:45.360 you need to do what you want to do. 508 00:31:45.360 --> 00:31:47.120 I've been with my husband for 20 years. 509 00:31:47.120 --> 00:31:52.200 We've definitely been at this same point that you're at right now. 510 00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:58.120 And I can tell you that sometimes the way that I think about it, and I define it, and 511 00:31:58.120 --> 00:32:06.200 I define success and driven and being motivated, he doesn't define it in those same terms. 512 00:32:06.200 --> 00:32:14.960 And I had to accept what he was defining it as isn't wrong. 513 00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:18.160 It's just not the way that I do it. 514 00:32:18.160 --> 00:32:20.640 And that's probably not your situation at all. 515 00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:27.120 But I'm just saying that whenever you're like compromising and creating conversation around 516 00:32:27.120 --> 00:32:34.160 things, you know, there's one thing that you want perfect alignment, but there's a lot 517 00:32:34.160 --> 00:32:42.120 of shades of gray between perfect alignment and cutoff that you can accept in one part 518 00:32:42.120 --> 00:32:49.640 of the whole, even if it feels at the time, like it's the whole. 519 00:32:49.640 --> 00:32:57.800 And I just, you know, it can be very encompassing, like having another baby to birth your business. 520 00:32:57.800 --> 00:33:01.680 And you feel like that same emotions that you felt when you had a newborn, I was like 521 00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:04.560 super protective of it, and you want everybody to love it. 522 00:33:04.560 --> 00:33:05.560 And nobody can call it ugly. 523 00:33:05.560 --> 00:33:08.520 And nobody can say anything negative about your baby. 524 00:33:08.520 --> 00:33:14.640 But at some point, he's a different human, and he has a different perspective. 525 00:33:14.640 --> 00:33:18.240 And it doesn't have to be black and white. 526 00:33:18.240 --> 00:33:19.240 There can be. 527 00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:20.680 I agree that it doesn't have to be black and white. 528 00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:25.240 I guess the word that like, I keep hearing when you're speaking is accept. 529 00:33:25.240 --> 00:33:29.400 And I'm like, ah, see, like to me, acceptance sometimes means settling. 530 00:33:29.400 --> 00:33:34.200 It means accepting something that maybe isn't like you said, like, it's this kind of like 531 00:33:34.200 --> 00:33:38.240 that when I said resentment, it's like, if I have to accept that this is how it is, and 532 00:33:38.240 --> 00:33:43.520 this is our ceiling in life, like, I know that I can't accept that. 533 00:33:43.520 --> 00:33:53.320 And so that's, I think, where I'm really struggling internally is like, I just don't like, I would, 534 00:33:53.320 --> 00:33:57.880 I would if someone else were telling me that, like, they're in a marriage, and they don't 535 00:33:57.880 --> 00:34:01.800 have a voice in their marriage, or their husband, and it tells them to do all these things or 536 00:34:01.800 --> 00:34:08.600 have them, you know, is, you know, stifling their ability to work outside the home or 537 00:34:08.600 --> 00:34:11.520 whatever those things would be, I would be like, you're absolutely crazy, get out of 538 00:34:11.520 --> 00:34:12.520 there. 539 00:34:12.520 --> 00:34:16.360 And like, it's not the same thing, because I'm not, you know, being told to be a housewife 540 00:34:16.360 --> 00:34:17.639 and stay home or anything like that. 541 00:34:17.639 --> 00:34:22.520 But I am kind of being told that isn't this enough isn't where you're at enough? 542 00:34:22.520 --> 00:34:27.800 Why can't you just have a secure job and bring in the money that you know, supports our family? 543 00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:30.679 Why do we need more than what we have? 544 00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:36.120 I just feel like I don't want to be I don't want to accept what I have and be like, this 545 00:34:36.120 --> 00:34:37.120 is fine. 546 00:34:37.120 --> 00:34:38.120 Because I just don't. 547 00:34:38.120 --> 00:34:39.880 That's not what I want more out of life. 548 00:34:39.880 --> 00:34:42.440 I want more out of my relationship with him. 549 00:34:42.440 --> 00:34:43.440 I want, you know what I mean? 550 00:34:43.440 --> 00:34:48.040 So like, I feel like if I if I accept that his, I mean, we do have a very different view 551 00:34:48.040 --> 00:34:49.040 on things sometimes. 552 00:34:49.040 --> 00:34:54.920 And like, I just feel like if I accept it, and I'm like, somehow, settling. 553 00:34:54.920 --> 00:34:59.720 I think yesterday, Danielle said, you can have high standards. 554 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:04.340 but manager expectations, something like that. 555 00:35:04.340 --> 00:35:08.340 Where it's like, you can have high standards, 556 00:35:08.340 --> 00:35:11.380 build your business, quit your full-time job, 557 00:35:11.380 --> 00:35:15.180 do all the things that you want to do, 558 00:35:15.180 --> 00:35:18.880 but it doesn't have to be today in this minute. 559 00:35:18.880 --> 00:35:22.260 It can be, you know, over time 560 00:35:22.260 --> 00:35:26.140 where he has time to like come with you. 561 00:35:26.140 --> 00:35:28.340 And I don't think, I mean, 562 00:35:28.440 --> 00:35:29.800 from my own personal experience, 563 00:35:29.800 --> 00:35:31.880 yes, my husband's absolutely pushing back 564 00:35:31.880 --> 00:35:34.380 and it's a little bit different than what you're saying, 565 00:35:34.380 --> 00:35:36.940 but it's a lot the same of what you're saying. 566 00:35:36.940 --> 00:35:39.820 And I definitely, with him, 567 00:35:39.820 --> 00:35:43.320 it's just kind of like, it's like a non-negotiable. 568 00:35:43.320 --> 00:35:44.440 I'm gonna do it. 569 00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:45.960 This is gonna happen. 570 00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:48.860 And I hear what you're saying are the boundaries 571 00:35:48.860 --> 00:35:50.840 that you want to place on it. 572 00:35:50.840 --> 00:35:53.360 And these are my boundaries that I'm placing 573 00:35:53.360 --> 00:35:55.260 on what you're doing. 574 00:35:55.260 --> 00:35:56.920 And I think that's, you know, 575 00:35:56.920 --> 00:36:00.960 kind of how communication works in relationships. 576 00:36:03.660 --> 00:36:06.340 Lauren, Sean said this is girl time, 577 00:36:06.340 --> 00:36:07.780 so he refuses to hop on, 578 00:36:07.780 --> 00:36:09.700 but he's listening in the background 579 00:36:09.700 --> 00:36:13.700 and he wants to know, why does it bother your husband? 580 00:36:13.700 --> 00:36:15.740 He's like, why does it bother him so much? 581 00:36:15.740 --> 00:36:17.740 He wants to know. 582 00:36:17.740 --> 00:36:20.180 I don't think it's that like it works. 583 00:36:20.180 --> 00:36:22.980 He said, ask him why it bothers him. 584 00:36:22.980 --> 00:36:23.980 Why it bothers him, yeah. 585 00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:26.640 Well, I think it's because, 586 00:36:26.640 --> 00:36:29.400 one, he sees like the stress that it puts on me. 587 00:36:29.400 --> 00:36:31.920 He sees the extra work that it puts on me. 588 00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:35.040 He sees the investment that I've made in this 589 00:36:35.040 --> 00:36:38.080 and the fact that like, 590 00:36:38.080 --> 00:36:42.000 obviously he's struggling to recoup that 591 00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:44.720 and make this successful. 592 00:36:44.720 --> 00:36:47.380 And so I think part of it is like him feeling like, 593 00:36:48.800 --> 00:36:50.280 you don't have to do this to yourself. 594 00:36:50.280 --> 00:36:51.840 Like, we don't need this. 595 00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:54.180 Like, just drop it. 596 00:36:54.180 --> 00:36:55.500 Like, I don't want to see you upset. 597 00:36:55.500 --> 00:36:56.440 I don't want to see you stressed. 598 00:36:56.440 --> 00:36:59.140 I don't want to see you work all these hours 599 00:36:59.140 --> 00:37:02.780 for something that's not benefiting you in a positive way. 600 00:37:02.780 --> 00:37:07.780 And, you know, I think that's certainly part of it. 601 00:37:07.860 --> 00:37:10.460 And then the other part of it is like, I just think, 602 00:37:13.560 --> 00:37:17.600 I have a very different approach to things 603 00:37:17.600 --> 00:37:21.100 and he's just very content, 604 00:37:22.940 --> 00:37:26.260 you know, going through the day and doing the same things. 605 00:37:26.260 --> 00:37:30.420 And like, that's not enough for me. 606 00:37:30.420 --> 00:37:31.980 Yeah. 607 00:37:31.980 --> 00:37:34.100 And so that's where we like, 608 00:37:34.100 --> 00:37:35.780 I think part of him is trying to like protect me 609 00:37:35.780 --> 00:37:36.900 in this situation. 610 00:37:36.900 --> 00:37:39.200 And then the other part of it is like, 611 00:37:39.200 --> 00:37:41.300 we're just not at all, 612 00:37:41.300 --> 00:37:42.140 we don't see it the same way. 613 00:37:42.140 --> 00:37:43.900 He doesn't see like why I do this. 614 00:37:43.900 --> 00:37:45.500 Like, he just doesn't get it. 615 00:37:45.500 --> 00:37:46.740 And so he's like, I don't understand 616 00:37:47.080 --> 00:37:48.600 why you'd want to put yourself through this 617 00:37:48.600 --> 00:37:50.140 and dump all this money into this 618 00:37:50.140 --> 00:37:51.640 and all this time into this. 619 00:37:51.640 --> 00:37:52.680 He's like, if you really want, 620 00:37:52.680 --> 00:37:55.660 like if you're really chasing like more family time 621 00:37:55.660 --> 00:37:56.500 and more connection, 622 00:37:56.500 --> 00:37:57.640 then that's what we should be focusing on. 623 00:37:57.640 --> 00:37:59.160 He's like, you're like kind of this idea 624 00:37:59.160 --> 00:38:01.600 of like living for tomorrow instead of living for today. 625 00:38:01.600 --> 00:38:04.280 And that is certainly something that I struggle with 626 00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:05.360 and that I'm trying to work on, 627 00:38:05.360 --> 00:38:08.000 which is kind of part of the ethos of my brand, right? 628 00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:10.680 It's like this idea of like really living for today 629 00:38:10.680 --> 00:38:12.080 and living for the moment. 630 00:38:12.080 --> 00:38:15.880 And yeah, so it's not like he's opposed to me doing it. 631 00:38:15.880 --> 00:38:17.380 He just doesn't, 632 00:38:17.380 --> 00:38:19.540 I think he's just struggling with the situation 633 00:38:19.540 --> 00:38:21.940 that we're in and being in this valley right now. 634 00:38:21.940 --> 00:38:25.620 He doesn't see, you know, 635 00:38:25.620 --> 00:38:28.400 the potential that I see. 636 00:38:31.220 --> 00:38:33.700 It sounds like, you know, 637 00:38:33.700 --> 00:38:36.300 he feels like his safety and security 638 00:38:36.300 --> 00:38:37.980 is threatened in some capacity. 639 00:38:39.260 --> 00:38:43.980 And what Chrissy was saying before of like, 640 00:38:43.980 --> 00:38:45.500 there's shades of alignment. 641 00:38:46.320 --> 00:38:47.960 You both have to do it. 642 00:38:47.960 --> 00:38:49.800 Not just you do it for him. 643 00:38:49.800 --> 00:38:52.840 He would also have to do it for you at some point. 644 00:38:52.840 --> 00:38:55.720 And the reality I think of long-term relationships 645 00:38:55.720 --> 00:38:59.520 is that those don't always happen at the same, 646 00:38:59.520 --> 00:39:02.160 they usually don't happen at the same time. 647 00:39:02.160 --> 00:39:04.180 And so there is this point of, 648 00:39:05.160 --> 00:39:07.120 that I think that's where the commitment comes in 649 00:39:07.120 --> 00:39:12.080 of like, hey, well, I'm gonna wait. 650 00:39:12.080 --> 00:39:14.080 I know we're getting into like, 651 00:39:14.100 --> 00:39:17.100 this is definitely like off business topic. 652 00:39:17.100 --> 00:39:19.380 And I don't want you to hear 653 00:39:19.380 --> 00:39:23.800 that we're all just giving you like marriage instructions. 654 00:39:25.060 --> 00:39:27.100 And I think just hopefully you hear like everyone's heart 655 00:39:27.100 --> 00:39:28.500 for just like what's worked for them 656 00:39:28.500 --> 00:39:30.460 and their perspectives and stuff like that. 657 00:39:30.460 --> 00:39:33.740 But I think that where you're at, 658 00:39:33.740 --> 00:39:35.680 a lot of us can relate to. 659 00:39:35.680 --> 00:39:38.100 And for me, it's also like, 660 00:39:38.100 --> 00:39:40.580 there's this like, I don't know how this is gonna work. 661 00:39:40.580 --> 00:39:42.980 I don't know how this could keep going like this. 662 00:39:44.140 --> 00:39:47.220 And that sense of hopelessness is really hard. 663 00:39:49.660 --> 00:39:53.340 So I don't know, I guess I say that to just, 664 00:39:53.340 --> 00:39:54.540 you're not alone in that. 665 00:39:54.540 --> 00:39:56.700 You're not the only one that's experienced that. 666 00:39:56.700 --> 00:39:59.660 But that there can be hope for the other side of it. 667 00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:04.600 And I hope that's what you take away for from all of us today, but there is hope to get to the other side 668 00:40:05.640 --> 00:40:07.160 and 669 00:40:07.160 --> 00:40:10.200 I feel like I'm sometimes not quite on the other side 670 00:40:10.960 --> 00:40:14.560 I'm like some days. I'm like yeah, there's hope wow this is great and other days 671 00:40:14.560 --> 00:40:18.840 I'm just like it's all burning and I give up and now it's fire really 672 00:40:20.080 --> 00:40:25.240 Literally me last week, so you know and then we had marriage counseling the next day. I was like thank God 673 00:40:26.240 --> 00:40:30.760 So, you know, I don't know I want to hear I 674 00:40:31.440 --> 00:40:37.760 do want us to like encourage you but also I'm wary of us turning this into too much of a 675 00:40:39.040 --> 00:40:41.040 marriage counseling session essentially 676 00:40:41.320 --> 00:40:42.080 No, absolutely 677 00:40:42.080 --> 00:40:48.080 I'm like, you know, obviously I brought up the topic and I do appreciate everyone's feedback because I think that whether it's a 678 00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:53.840 marriage relationship or a different type of relationship like what we're doing obviously is affecting 679 00:40:55.640 --> 00:40:57.280 You know our personal self 680 00:40:57.280 --> 00:40:58.400 but then also 681 00:40:58.400 --> 00:41:04.040 how we interact with with our world and how we interact with our in relationships and our different friendships and 682 00:41:04.320 --> 00:41:07.640 Even you know at the office and things like that like it changes things like you this 683 00:41:08.520 --> 00:41:13.280 It is transformative in that way. And so navigating things with this new lens 684 00:41:13.280 --> 00:41:17.280 I think is kind of what I was why I brought this up and knowing that we're all 685 00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:24.680 Navigating life with a different outlook. And so it's helpful to have that perspective from other people and 686 00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:27.760 I 687 00:41:28.240 --> 00:41:32.040 Think it was also partially why I was like so triggered by the Elon Musk 688 00:41:33.240 --> 00:41:37.240 Analogy is because like it if he asked at the end of the chapter 689 00:41:37.360 --> 00:41:41.760 what will you let go of that's keeping you where you're at and it's like I 690 00:41:42.360 --> 00:41:49.280 Don't think I'm willing to go where Elon Musk went like if that's the archetype like no, thank you 691 00:41:49.600 --> 00:41:56.000 It's like where is my floor my floor is at a different place than that and I can't 692 00:41:56.840 --> 00:42:03.120 Like just the next question after that was what is your own unique pathway to your impossible goal? 693 00:42:03.680 --> 00:42:05.680 and it feels like 694 00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:08.000 just 695 00:42:08.880 --> 00:42:16.520 Navigating like defining what I'm willing and not willing to let go of and making my own unique pathway is 696 00:42:17.120 --> 00:42:18.520 is 697 00:42:18.520 --> 00:42:22.400 maybe a better takeaway from the chapter then 698 00:42:23.160 --> 00:42:27.200 You know if I'm want to stagnate or scale 699 00:42:28.280 --> 00:42:30.280 and so as 700 00:42:30.280 --> 00:42:34.480 It's hard for me to let people in and like, you know 701 00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:41.080 I really struggle to like add team members so that I could scale and like duplicate efforts and like 702 00:42:41.360 --> 00:42:48.200 You know been burned on adding team members and also been accelerated by adding team members 703 00:42:48.560 --> 00:42:50.560 and so I would say that 704 00:42:51.040 --> 00:42:57.480 Just like hopping on a plane and cutting the wire and like laying off dozens of people simultaneously 705 00:42:57.480 --> 00:43:02.960 It's like never gonna be where I'm gonna be at in my life, you know 706 00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:10.000 That's a good point 707 00:43:11.760 --> 00:43:15.560 I think for me there's a couple of ways in which things are unique and 708 00:43:15.560 --> 00:43:21.880 Like for instance like when it comes to like amassing let's say financial wealth, I'm 709 00:43:22.920 --> 00:43:24.920 unwilling to 710 00:43:26.640 --> 00:43:29.560 Do that in certain ways like I'm unwilling to 711 00:43:32.080 --> 00:43:35.760 I'm unwilling to subscribe to our American work culture for one 712 00:43:37.200 --> 00:43:39.960 I'm unwilling like I'm unwilling to work 713 00:43:40.120 --> 00:43:46.760 Basically 40 hours on a regular basis or more. Honestly, I just don't I don't get our culture 714 00:43:46.760 --> 00:43:48.760 Honestly our hustle culture. I don't 715 00:43:49.320 --> 00:43:54.320 Exhaust me. It makes I'm my my life is not meant to be spent working 716 00:43:56.640 --> 00:44:00.640 Not or at least not working my job, I have other work 717 00:44:02.040 --> 00:44:06.360 That I've been given stewardship over that is just as important 718 00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:11.040 That is just as important so that's one thing like just to kind of go off what Christie is saying like 719 00:44:11.240 --> 00:44:14.960 There's things that I'm not willing to do to amass wealth 720 00:44:16.680 --> 00:44:18.680 I'm not willing to 721 00:44:19.480 --> 00:44:21.480 sacrifice 722 00:44:22.560 --> 00:44:24.560 Community to 723 00:44:26.480 --> 00:44:32.480 Have more wealth so like more time working, you know, just all of that like I'm there's just things I'm not willing to give up and 724 00:44:33.280 --> 00:44:34.840 You know 725 00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:39.480 Because you know my that's just my values. So I think we all have that 726 00:44:40.240 --> 00:44:41.240 of 727 00:44:41.240 --> 00:44:43.200 like here's 728 00:44:43.200 --> 00:44:46.000 the non-negotiable thing that I keep 729 00:44:46.800 --> 00:44:48.160 and 730 00:44:48.160 --> 00:44:52.020 That's what creates your own unique way in your own unique timeline 731 00:44:54.800 --> 00:44:59.280 So, I'm sure we all have that if anybody else has anything that's kind of sticking out to them 732 00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:02.000 Hmm 733 00:45:03.080 --> 00:45:06.980 So I'll share what happened so just a part of growth 734 00:45:07.440 --> 00:45:15.000 so I have a hater and she's sending her army out to attack me and anyone who 735 00:45:15.600 --> 00:45:19.200 like champions for me on social media and 736 00:45:20.160 --> 00:45:23.480 I'm on I'm in my own bubble. Like I ain't got time for that 737 00:45:23.480 --> 00:45:28.640 So I have I'm clueless and another business approached me and they're like hey 738 00:45:28.640 --> 00:45:31.680 What do you know about so-and-so and I'm like nothing 739 00:45:32.360 --> 00:45:37.320 You know and I said, I think we roughly started our dog bakeries at the same time 740 00:45:37.320 --> 00:45:45.560 So it's another local dog bakery who I'm apparently gaining popularity and traction and she's noticed and now she feels threatened 741 00:45:46.120 --> 00:45:47.520 so 742 00:45:47.520 --> 00:45:52.800 Another business like gave me a shout out and highly recommended me and she had all her little 743 00:45:53.320 --> 00:45:57.600 Warriors come and post on their post and like 744 00:45:58.080 --> 00:46:02.280 Negative stuff and things like that and they came to me and told me they're like clearly 745 00:46:02.520 --> 00:46:08.720 These people don't know you because if they know you you're the last person that's anything like the things that they're saying 746 00:46:09.040 --> 00:46:15.480 They're they're like you're the kindest you're always lifting everybody else up. You're always promoting everyone else 747 00:46:15.920 --> 00:46:20.840 You're always about building community and like collaboration not tearing people down 748 00:46:21.320 --> 00:46:24.200 So, I mean it doesn't matter I 749 00:46:24.720 --> 00:46:30.960 Don't want to say it doesn't matter but it doesn't matter what you do when you're growing whether it's personal or business 750 00:46:31.240 --> 00:46:37.360 Haters gonna hate and as you grow it does it gets lonely. It gets lonely, you know 751 00:46:37.360 --> 00:46:40.080 So, I mean I do value this community 752 00:46:41.560 --> 00:46:48.720 For that because it it is hard and it's rare in this life to find like-minded people 753 00:46:49.400 --> 00:46:54.080 Doing the same thing following their heart following a passion following a calling 754 00:46:54.600 --> 00:46:57.560 Well, I'm gonna switch to the backroom tanks. So not just food 755 00:47:00.600 --> 00:47:04.560 I'm following all of those things. So I mean that was that was my week 756 00:47:04.560 --> 00:47:06.360 My week is haters 757 00:47:06.360 --> 00:47:12.240 and I guess two of these bit two businesses had to block her and her people because it was getting so 758 00:47:12.560 --> 00:47:17.320 Negative and they were like, this is my post. I didn't ask for your opinion like 759 00:47:17.320 --> 00:47:21.200 And I mean, I'm over here. I had no clue any of this was going on 760 00:47:21.720 --> 00:47:24.960 But it's just it and it just it does it blows my mind. I'm like 761 00:47:25.520 --> 00:47:31.920 When you're growing who has time to worry about that who has time to worry about any of that and it happens 762 00:47:32.600 --> 00:47:33.880 so 763 00:47:33.880 --> 00:47:35.880 That's my share on growth for the week 764 00:47:35.880 --> 00:47:39.240 I guess I'm doing even though I feel like I'm not growing and I'm stagnant 765 00:47:39.760 --> 00:47:43.040 apparently, I'm catching attention of other businesses and I'm 766 00:47:44.120 --> 00:47:46.120 clueless 767 00:47:46.440 --> 00:47:48.440 You're far from stagnant 768 00:47:53.960 --> 00:47:55.960 Mckayla you've been very quiet today 769 00:47:57.200 --> 00:48:02.600 Mm-hmm. Oh my internet is not going very well. So everybody's kind of splotchy for me, but 770 00:48:04.160 --> 00:48:10.800 I've I've been very sick. So I did not in fact get better. I I got way worse. So 771 00:48:12.080 --> 00:48:14.080 I'm surviving over here 772 00:48:14.360 --> 00:48:16.360 I'm surviving over here 773 00:48:17.280 --> 00:48:21.880 If I had to guess I don't I'm not a doctor person. I don't go to the doctor 774 00:48:21.880 --> 00:48:23.880 But if I had to guess I probably have cove it 775 00:48:24.280 --> 00:48:25.720 so 776 00:48:25.720 --> 00:48:29.160 be glad you're all on the other side of the screen here, but 777 00:48:30.680 --> 00:48:32.960 yeah, so I'm I'm here listening, but 778 00:48:35.280 --> 00:48:38.440 I'm struggling. Thank you 779 00:48:44.640 --> 00:48:46.640 You 780 00:48:46.800 --> 00:48:52.800 Anybody else have anything that stood out to them from this week's chapter or previous chapters anything that you really are gonna like take with you 781 00:48:55.960 --> 00:48:58.840 If there's one one or two things you're really taking with you 782 00:49:01.520 --> 00:49:06.720 Something I've been thinking about as I listen through the audio book and then on this call today like even carry, you know 783 00:49:06.720 --> 00:49:08.640 using the term stagnant and like 784 00:49:08.640 --> 00:49:13.840 You know, I think I kind of feel like I've kind of put a pause on on things and things are definitely stagnant in 785 00:49:13.840 --> 00:49:18.120 My business but like everything what we're listening about is like scaling and growth and you know 786 00:49:18.120 --> 00:49:21.520 Even Danielle had mentioned like maybe it's not the time for these nuggets for you 787 00:49:21.520 --> 00:49:24.080 like that'll maybe come later in your business, but I guess 788 00:49:24.680 --> 00:49:26.680 this feeling of like I 789 00:49:27.880 --> 00:49:31.280 couldn't even possibly be ready to think about scaling because I 790 00:49:32.080 --> 00:49:34.080 Like scale what? 791 00:49:34.600 --> 00:49:40.440 There's nothing to scale yet, right it's still just more of an idea than anything else 792 00:49:40.440 --> 00:49:44.640 and so maybe like I think it'd be helpful to kind of 793 00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:52.480 reframe how I think about that or like what I could be doing to get out of those feelings of stagnation and kind of 794 00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:54.880 pause and like 795 00:49:55.080 --> 00:49:57.660 where's the that little spark to kind of 796 00:49:58.600 --> 00:50:00.600 Relight that or like 797 00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:04.080 I don't know. I just that's kind of where my head's at is like. 798 00:50:07.680 --> 00:50:12.800 Thanks. Thanks for sharing. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. 799 00:50:17.920 --> 00:50:22.560 Well, we are going to be picking another book. 800 00:50:22.560 --> 00:50:36.800 And I think we're going to start April. The first Tuesday of April, which will be April 7th. So the 801 00:50:36.800 --> 00:50:42.560 next three Tuesdays will be normal office hours. Honestly, I need a little bit of a break. It's 802 00:50:42.560 --> 00:50:48.160 hard for me to keep up. Because I basically try to squeeze in listening to the book in between 803 00:50:48.160 --> 00:50:53.680 my calls with all of you all and on the way to car pickups because it's work. So I don't do that. 804 00:50:53.680 --> 00:51:01.760 I don't listen when I'm done with work. So I need a little bit of a break. But I would love for us to 805 00:51:02.640 --> 00:51:07.200 talk about maybe these last few minutes talk about any book ideas anyone has had or would love to 806 00:51:07.200 --> 00:51:12.480 read or has already read and would love for our group to read. If we have multiple suggestions 807 00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:22.320 come up, we can do like a vote on the app or something. But any ideas are welcome. I know we 808 00:51:22.320 --> 00:51:28.880 talked about a few. Yeah, I have a list. I actually made a list of the ones that we mentioned like a 809 00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:36.720 couple weeks ago. I'll just say them out loud real quick. And if any of them feel good, maybe just 810 00:51:36.720 --> 00:51:42.480 write it in the chat. And then we'll do we can do a poll. And then if there's another book you guys 811 00:51:44.480 --> 00:51:49.280 think of right now, like in the next four minutes, like also pop that in the chat. 812 00:51:50.880 --> 00:51:53.360 We're going to take the next three weeks off and we're going to pick our 813 00:51:54.240 --> 00:52:00.000 we'll still do office hours like Gabby said, but we'll start a new book. April 7. That will be the 814 00:52:00.000 --> 00:52:08.400 plan. Okay, I've got The Body Keeps the Score, Grace Over Grind, probably the opposite of what 815 00:52:08.400 --> 00:52:20.720 we described. Do we need some of that? Expert Secrets, Living Fearless, Deep End by Taylor 816 00:52:20.720 --> 00:52:30.560 Welch, 12 Months to a Million, Who Moved My Cheese? Yeah, that's what I have written down 817 00:52:31.840 --> 00:52:36.960 as a couple of options that one time we talked. What's The Bug Who Moved My Cheese? I haven't 818 00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:44.960 heard that one. Okay, so I love this book. It is like easy read. Like I'm telling you crazy easy 819 00:52:44.960 --> 00:52:51.360 read. But it is about it talks about being stagnant. It's about mice that get put in like a 820 00:52:52.400 --> 00:52:59.680 thing and they move the cheese. And what happens to the mice that don't move? And then the ones 821 00:52:59.680 --> 00:53:06.240 who eventually are like, Oh, if I stay here, this is what's going to happen to me. And like, 822 00:53:06.240 --> 00:53:14.240 but it's a crazy easy read. But it's so good just talking about stagnation and but it's very it was 823 00:53:14.240 --> 00:53:24.640 a very good. It's a very good book. I found some article that's supposed to be it says it's the 824 00:53:26.080 --> 00:53:43.120 best business books for women of 2026. Yes, hang on. It says 100 million $100 million offers by 825 00:53:43.200 --> 00:53:52.720 Alex Hormozy. Number two is $100 million leads by Alex Hormozy. For women. 826 00:53:56.640 --> 00:54:02.640 Well, it says it was written by his wife. Oh, that makes sense. Okay, yeah. 827 00:54:03.600 --> 00:54:11.280 Number three is how to be better at almost everything by Pat Flynn. Number four is Atomic 828 00:54:11.280 --> 00:54:20.080 Habits. Number five is She Means Business by Kerry Green. Daring Greatly by Brenny Brown. 829 00:54:23.280 --> 00:54:25.840 What they don't teach you at Harvard Business School. 830 00:54:28.400 --> 00:54:33.680 Why has nobody told me this before by Dr. Julie Smith. And then the Let Them Theory. 831 00:54:34.240 --> 00:54:40.960 Oh, and Unshakeable by Tony Robbins. The Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod. 832 00:54:42.000 --> 00:54:45.120 All right, let me see how. Let me see if I can transfer this from my phone. 833 00:54:47.360 --> 00:54:50.800 Brené is amazing.
