- 0:18Speaker 2: And today we are joined by kate Lelamico. Welcome, Hello,
- 0:22Speaker 2: all the way from New York just for this.
- 0:24Speaker 4: Yeah, that's actually what I feel. We know it.
- 0:28Speaker 3: We are so excited because we've been following you for
- 0:31Speaker 3: a long time. For any of the chicks who aren't
- 0:33Speaker 3: across your content. You do a lot of content around
- 0:35Speaker 3: your moved to New York, but you're also a marketing expert.
- 0:38Speaker 2: You do a lot of fashion content as well. So yeah,
- 0:41Speaker 2: we're so grateful. Yeah, girl after our own heart.
- 0:46Speaker 3: But yeah, so we're so happy that we were able
- 0:47Speaker 3: to line it up with your Sydney trip.
- 0:49Speaker 4: No, I'm so happy to be here. I'm excited to talk.
- 0:51Speaker 3: Yes, but before we get into it, we love to
- 0:54Speaker 3: start with our life lesson of the week, So would
- 0:56Speaker 3: you like to kick us off?
- 0:57Speaker 5: Yes, I feel like when you said that and you said, oh,
- 1:00Speaker 5: could just be.
- 1:01Speaker 4: Silly, I feel like I'm like so deep, like.
- 1:03Speaker 2: Straight up amazing. Yeah, I hit it.
- 1:06Speaker 5: I had coffee with a friend so iph you could
- 1:08Speaker 5: this week, and we were talking about how in person
- 1:10Speaker 5: connections are super important, and my life lesson was to
- 1:15Speaker 5: be super traditional in the way that you conduct yourself
- 1:17Speaker 5: in business, like have face to face meetings rather than
- 1:19Speaker 5: always relying on Google Meet or Zoom or FaceTime, because
- 1:23Speaker 5: when people can like sounds weird, like see you and
- 1:25Speaker 5: like almost like just like touch you, like, they build
- 1:28Speaker 5: this emotional connection with you, and then it actually helped
- 1:30Speaker 5: you with your business moving forward because they have more
- 1:34Speaker 5: of an emotional tie, so I can like.
- 1:35Speaker 4: Screw you over.
- 1:36Speaker 5: And we were talking about how that's probably why with
- 1:38Speaker 5: like dating apps, people don't care about like ghosting you,
- 1:41Speaker 5: canceling on you, not showing up. It's because they don't
- 1:43Speaker 5: have that like emotional tie wars. If they had met
- 1:45Speaker 5: you in person once, they probably have a little bit
- 1:47Speaker 5: more of emotional connection. So just keeping that in mind.
- 1:50Speaker 3: I remember when we were doing an episode years ago
- 1:53Speaker 3: and it was like how to get a job or
- 1:55Speaker 3: how to get your dream job or something like that,
- 1:57Speaker 3: and it was like eighty percent or even ptently higher
- 2:00Speaker 3: of people get jobs because of someone they know. And
- 2:04Speaker 3: it's like from network, But we went to one recently
- 2:08Speaker 3: and it was like meeting a team at a company
- 2:11Speaker 3: that could really really.
- 2:12Speaker 2: Help support us on the podcast as well.
- 2:15Speaker 3: And then we went and had the best time with them,
- 2:17Speaker 3: and then three days later they were like, yeah, cool,
- 2:19Speaker 3: Like what can we do?
- 2:20Speaker 2: How can we help?
- 2:22Speaker 4: Like people are more willing to put their skin in
- 2:24Speaker 4: the game.
- 2:27Speaker 2: Agree, yeah, No, I love that.
- 2:29Speaker 3: It also gives you the space to have conversations outside
- 2:31Speaker 3: of work, which I think helps you connect a little
- 2:34Speaker 3: bit more to Whereas when you're on a zoom call,
- 2:36Speaker 3: you'll be.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Like, how's this weather? But if you sit down for coffee,
- 2:39Speaker 2: you can.
- 2:40Speaker 3: Actually bread at the Christmas Yeah, we always asked that
- 2:44Speaker 3: first question on zoom call. No, but yeah, you can
- 2:46Speaker 3: have some of those yeah, but yeah, you can have
- 2:49Speaker 3: some more of those deeper conbos, which I think helps Yeah.
- 2:52Speaker 2: Yeah, did you fuck Brad at the Christmas part?
- 2:55Speaker 5: And there's like a lot more room for humor, which
- 2:57Speaker 5: I think is like the easiest level in order to
- 2:59Speaker 5: connect someone because you can start with humor.
- 3:01Speaker 3: Then there's no one more bonded than two co workers
- 3:06Speaker 3: hanging out after work with the common enemy.
- 3:10Speaker 2: There is nothing stronger than that bond. That's how our
- 3:13Speaker 2: friendship started.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Yeah, two people that work together that go out for
- 3:16Speaker 3: a coffee or an afterwork drink and they have a
- 3:19Speaker 3: common enemy and all they need is like one extra
- 3:22Speaker 3: grain of information or that one extra thing to go higher. Yeah,
- 3:28Speaker 3: it's my favorite favorite activity.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Okay, what's your life lesson?
- 3:31Speaker 3: My life lesson of the week is, at the time
- 3:35Speaker 3: of recording, road Beauty just launch, right, very exciting, congratulations
- 3:41Speaker 3: my good friend Hailey Beber. However, my life lesson of
- 3:44Speaker 3: the week is you don't actually need to buy it
- 3:47Speaker 3: when everyone else is, because yesterday it launched in two
- 3:52Speaker 3: stores only in Sydney and in Melbourne on Burke Street
- 3:56Speaker 3: and George Street. Right. And then this morning I was
- 3:59Speaker 3: going to go I get some to do a giveaway
- 4:01Speaker 3: for six hundred K, which I then walked in and
- 4:04Speaker 3: the line was out the door, and I was seeing these.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Girls and they had buckets and baskets and.
- 4:12Speaker 3: All that stuff, which like fair enough, you spend your
- 4:14Speaker 3: money however you want. But I just also think, right
- 4:17Speaker 3: now is the cool aid of purchasing road Right. It's
- 4:21Speaker 3: like everyone's like, get it, and I'm going to get
- 4:24Speaker 3: this blush and this product and this product that I'm like, absolutely,
- 4:27Speaker 3: if you want to buy it, go get it.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Go for your life. But also it's not going anywhere.
- 4:32Speaker 2: That's the point. It's here now, yes, and the foama of.
- 4:37Speaker 3: It, and you have to think about it like that,
- 4:39Speaker 3: because we get briefs from brands, right and we never
- 4:41Speaker 3: fucking do them, but we get briefs come in talking
- 4:44Speaker 3: to me and that like, oh my god, I have
- 4:47Speaker 3: to get it. It's just launched, is marketing, and so
- 4:51Speaker 3: it's like, yes, it's very exciting, but also you don't
- 4:56Speaker 3: have to get it immediately.
- 4:57Speaker 2: It's not going anywhere. That's the whole point.
- 5:00Speaker 3: And maybe like five years ago this would have launched
- 5:04Speaker 3: and I would have spent easily, like three hundred dollars
- 5:06Speaker 3: on it.
- 5:07Speaker 2: Yeah, easily?
- 5:10Speaker 3: Or is this something I was like, I just sit
- 5:12Speaker 3: and wait a little bit, see if I feel like
- 5:13Speaker 3: in two weeks yeah, and see like.
- 5:15Speaker 2: What Also some of the Aussie consumers say.
- 5:19Speaker 3: About it as well, like see some of their okay,
- 5:21Speaker 3: a milky tone of that I'm musing right now. So
- 5:23Speaker 3: maybe I'll try the road when when that runs out. Yeah, yes,
- 5:28Speaker 3: and you won't have to line up for three hours
- 5:30Speaker 3: to get boring of like a life lesson because it's
- 5:32Speaker 3: more fun to be like go yeah, yeah, but I'm like.
- 5:37Speaker 2: No, I think it's solid advice, big sister advice. Thank you, Sally.
- 5:40Speaker 3: Okay, my life lesson of the week is short and sweet,
- 5:43Speaker 3: but it's to.
- 5:44Speaker 2: Celebrate the winds, which we touched on.
- 5:48Speaker 1: We did.
- 5:49Speaker 2: Maybe we celebrated a little too hard. Okay, when this
- 5:53Speaker 2: episode comes.
- 5:54Speaker 3: Out, it would have been a while ago, but yeah,
- 5:56Speaker 3: we hit six hundred k followers this week and we're like.
- 5:58Speaker 2: Let's have one cocktail, have a cock how to sell way.
- 6:02Speaker 3: It was on a Tuesday, and it just didn't It's
- 6:04Speaker 3: always it's always those on our story being like all right, everyone,
- 6:10Speaker 3: seven thirty, we have to be at home.
- 6:12Speaker 2: And then we got a couple of messages in the
- 6:14Speaker 2: lit so what happened at seven thirty?
- 6:15Speaker 3: And I was like, we weren't at home home, Okay,
- 6:18Speaker 3: like I think those are the best nights.
- 6:20Speaker 4: So like low expectation. Yeah, reward exactly.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Was rewarding, but it wasn't rewarding the next day.
- 6:28Speaker 3: Yeah, the next day, we borrowed our happiness from the
- 6:30Speaker 3: next day.
- 6:32Speaker 2: Say, I've never heard that. Yeah, we borrowed all the
- 6:36Speaker 2: happiness from the next day.
- 6:37Speaker 4: I think it's fine, That's what I said.
- 6:39Speaker 2: I was like, whatever.
- 6:40Speaker 3: I was like, if this is the worst thing we
- 6:42Speaker 3: do this week, then it's been a pretty good week. Yeah, exactly, Yeah,
- 6:45Speaker 3: a couple of seltzer was on a Tuesday, incredible coupled
- 6:50Speaker 3: us drink responsibly, jteen in new room exactly.
- 6:55Speaker 2: All right, let's get into the episode. Yeah, okay, okay.
- 6:58Speaker 3: Then, so you moved to New York a couple of
- 6:59Speaker 3: years ago. Now, but what led to that life changing move?
- 7:03Speaker 5: Well, circling back on the one drink led into multiple.
- 7:07Speaker 4: Charles and I were on.
- 7:09Speaker 5: James Street in Brisbane and we just gone to a
- 7:12Speaker 5: TikTok event and we were both working at the same agency,
- 7:16Speaker 5: and I was like, a bit over it. Should we
- 7:18Speaker 5: just move overseas?
- 7:20Speaker 4: I actually wish it was.
- 7:21Speaker 5: More serious than this. It was so casual. I had
- 7:24Speaker 5: an emeritus hour, she had a margarita. She said, yep,
- 7:27Speaker 5: do you want to move to London or New York?
- 7:28Speaker 5: I said, I'm a citizen in the US, so that
- 7:30Speaker 5: would be easier. Then she said okay, and that was it.
- 7:33Speaker 5: And then the following weeks I think we then planned
- 7:36Speaker 5: when we were quitting our jobs, and then we moved
- 7:38Speaker 5: maybe like four months ish later.
- 7:41Speaker 2: Well, so you just didn't even deep it, I.
- 7:43Speaker 5: Know, right, Yeah, I feel like we're pretty like that
- 7:47Speaker 5: in a lot of ways, very rigid in a lot
- 7:50Speaker 5: of ways.
- 7:50Speaker 4: Were very easy going in a lot of ways.
- 7:52Speaker 2: Yeah, and you committed once you'd made the decision.
- 7:54Speaker 4: Yeah, we're not cancelors.
- 7:57Speaker 3: Yeah, we were like any minor in venience.
- 8:00Speaker 2: We don't worry about it. Let's suck it off.
- 8:02Speaker 4: Yeah, like boat nack.
- 8:05Speaker 2: Yeah, straight at home. Was it harder than you expected
- 8:09Speaker 2: or easier?
- 8:12Speaker 5: I think it was as anticipated. So my brother lives
- 8:16Speaker 5: there for a bit of context. And then also I'm
- 8:18Speaker 5: a US citizen, so I've spent a lot of time
- 8:21Speaker 5: in the US, So I don't think that I anticipated
- 8:24Speaker 5: that it was going to be hard. I just knew
- 8:27Speaker 5: it was going to be expensive. So then we would
- 8:29Speaker 5: over that four months, we already had saved a bit,
- 8:32Speaker 5: not enough, I'll get into that, and then we're just hustling, basically,
- 8:36Speaker 5: like working multiple jobs and whatnot to save. But I
- 8:39Speaker 5: wouldn't say when I got there that it was super hard.
- 8:41Speaker 5: But I do think if I had moved alone, it
- 8:44Speaker 5: would have been a very different experience, Like.
- 8:45Speaker 3: Would you recommend moving with a friend because.
- 8:49Speaker 5: Yes, if they have the same mindset as you and
- 8:51Speaker 5: the same ambition or similar ambition more so, yeah, because
- 8:55Speaker 5: you kind of need to be there for similar reasons
- 8:58Speaker 5: or else your lifestyles can go into different directions.
- 9:02Speaker 4: So I felt Tiles and I have a good.
- 9:04Speaker 5: Mix of liking to party and have fun but also
- 9:06Speaker 5: being very career driven, so it was a nice balance.
- 9:09Speaker 5: But if you went with someone who was just going
- 9:12Speaker 5: there to live there for a year and have the
- 9:13Speaker 5: best time of their life, you'd probably been different friendship
- 9:15Speaker 5: groups and directions.
- 9:17Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Yeah, and you already like you were already best friends.
- 9:20Speaker 4: Yeah we met at work.
- 9:21Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's like you were you as close when
- 9:24Speaker 3: you moved versus now?
- 9:26Speaker 4: No? Oh wow, really definitely not.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Oh my god, so we like work wives essentially at
- 9:32Speaker 2: the time.
- 9:32Speaker 4: Yeah, we've only known each other for four years. Wow.
- 9:35Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 9:36Speaker 4: Actually surprised that so many people.
- 9:38Speaker 2: H my gosh, that's weird.
- 9:39Speaker 3: Although how is the you who moved different versus you
- 9:44Speaker 3: now after being there for a little while.
- 9:47Speaker 5: I would probably say when I moved, I like to
- 9:50Speaker 5: say that I'm quite introveted, which surprises a lot of people.
- 9:53Speaker 5: Even though I share a lot of my life, I
- 9:55Speaker 5: think a lot of my life is also private, whether
- 9:57Speaker 5: that's like dating or like work. I think a lot
- 10:00Speaker 5: of that stuff private. And I showed little bits here
- 10:03Speaker 5: and there. But when I moved, I was much more introveted,
- 10:05Speaker 5: didn't put myself out there as much. But New York
- 10:08Speaker 5: kind of forces you to become an extrovert because if
- 10:10Speaker 5: you don't, then you kind of don't make friends and
- 10:12Speaker 5: fall behind. So yeah, I would say I'm a lot
- 10:14Speaker 5: more confident, probably in myself, my day to day and
- 10:17Speaker 5: also my style.
- 10:18Speaker 4: Jesus Christ.
- 10:19Speaker 5: When I first moved compared to now, I probably thought
- 10:23Speaker 5: I had good style at the time three years ago,
- 10:26Speaker 5: but now when I look back at those photos and went,
- 10:28Speaker 5: oh my.
- 10:28Speaker 2: God, yeah, we've all been there.
- 10:31Speaker 3: Yeah, when you moved, was there like when you first
- 10:34Speaker 3: had the thing of being like should we move?
- 10:36Speaker 2: Like should we just go?
- 10:37Speaker 3: Was there like a lead up to that of like
- 10:39Speaker 3: you were pondering it? Or was it very no at
- 10:42Speaker 3: the moment, not at all.
- 10:43Speaker 5: Wow, there was no conversation, really, it was Yeah.
- 10:47Speaker 3: Do you think that if there was, then maybe you
- 10:49Speaker 3: wouldn't have made the move? Like, do you think that's
- 10:50Speaker 3: what made it a success because you just committed and
- 10:53Speaker 3: you didn't even give any of those chances for you
- 10:55Speaker 3: to overthink it.
- 10:57Speaker 5: Kind of yes, But Tarles and I are very big
- 10:59Speaker 5: on stop complaining and change. So it's either like you
- 11:02Speaker 5: don't complain about something unless you're going to change it,
- 11:04Speaker 5: and if you keep complaining, just like, don't complain. So
- 11:07Speaker 5: I think it's kind of similar mindset with moving. If
- 11:09Speaker 5: we were teetering, oh should we move to not move,
- 11:12Speaker 5: we both would have been saying to each other, Okay,
- 11:14Speaker 5: shut up, like either move or stop talking about it, like,
- 11:17Speaker 5: don't just kind of idle in the middle.
- 11:18Speaker 2: I like that.
- 11:19Speaker 3: It's like the saying it's like the best decision is
- 11:22Speaker 3: the one that you make yes, rather than like sitting
- 11:24Speaker 3: back and forth being like oh no.
- 11:27Speaker 5: I always say that, especially in work, like stop thinking
- 11:30Speaker 5: about what you could be doing and just do it, yeah,
- 11:32Speaker 5: because then you'll be able to work out if it
- 11:33Speaker 5: works on it.
- 11:35Speaker 3: And the worst case scenario was never that bad. No,
- 11:38Speaker 3: whatever ends up happening. I once heard this stat and
- 11:40Speaker 3: it was like eighty five percent of the things that
- 11:42Speaker 3: you stress about never happen.
- 11:44Speaker 2: And I think I became a god at that point,
- 11:46Speaker 2: I was like, elevator nothing, no one can touch me.
- 11:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like I need that like written in
- 11:52Speaker 3: lipstick on my mirror or I we need to get
- 11:55Speaker 3: like mirror stickers or something. Yeah, little decals some trademark.
- 12:00Speaker 3: So you kind of touched on this previously. But living
- 12:04Speaker 3: in New York is notoriously expensive, But is there an
- 12:07Speaker 3: inherent money habit that you had to unlearn.
- 12:10Speaker 2: After you moved.
- 12:13Speaker 5: I would say, as an Australian living in the US,
- 12:16Speaker 5: it was converting everything. So when we first moved, we
- 12:18Speaker 5: would sit there and say, oh, this coffee was actually
- 12:21Speaker 5: twelve dollars Australian, or this coffee or this dinner was
- 12:23Speaker 5: actually eighty dollars Australian.
- 12:25Speaker 4: That will literally wear and tear your brain.
- 12:28Speaker 5: Yeah, so much so to the point that you have
- 12:30Speaker 5: like more of a scarcity mindset and you become a
- 12:32Speaker 5: little bit more frugal. So we just started just taking
- 12:35Speaker 5: the dollars as they were.
- 12:36Speaker 4: It's if your coffee is six dollars, it's six dollars.
- 12:38Speaker 5: You're not sitting there saying, oh, this is actually nine
- 12:40Speaker 5: dollars eighty in Australian because it doesn't really get you Anyways.
- 12:44Speaker 2: This is a bit of a fucking bummer.
- 12:46Speaker 3: Like when you're moving, I think it's a different thing
- 12:48Speaker 3: to when you're traveling, right, completely, it's.
- 12:51Speaker 2: A completely different thing.
- 12:52Speaker 3: Yeah, but still if you're sitting there over every single
- 12:55Speaker 3: dollar and I'm really talking I've never moved overseas. I'm
- 12:58Speaker 3: really talking in the context of traveling though, Like if
- 13:00Speaker 3: you go to every single meal and every single thing
- 13:03Speaker 3: you do and everything, and you're going.
- 13:05Speaker 2: Well, the Australian doll sucks, so it's like.
- 13:07Speaker 3: You the whole time, we're just going to be like, oh,
- 13:09Speaker 3: that's so much more expensive.
- 13:10Speaker 4: Yeah, and then tax and tip, so it's like twenty
- 13:13Speaker 4: percent tip.
- 13:14Speaker 2: Is it nice coming back to Australia and you don't
- 13:16Speaker 2: have to tip?
- 13:17Speaker 5: Yes? But interestingly, I haven't been to Sydney in five
- 13:21Speaker 5: years and every restaurant has asked me to tip myda.
- 13:24Speaker 4: This is a thing.
- 13:25Speaker 5: I worked at a cafe when I first moved to
- 13:26Speaker 5: New York. Titles and I both did and my wage
- 13:29Speaker 5: was great, but then past tips, I was I'm early
- 13:31Speaker 5: like thirty eight dollars an hour. I'm going to go
- 13:36Speaker 5: because I think that was because I was working at
- 13:38Speaker 5: Australian cafes, so maybe they had different I don't really know.
- 13:42Speaker 5: And obviously different states as well, so state to state's
- 13:45Speaker 5: very different. I'm sure the Midwest and the South have
- 13:47Speaker 5: different laws to New York and LA.
- 13:49Speaker 4: So I don't really know how.
- 13:50Speaker 2: True true, true, No, that's so fair. That's so fair.
- 13:52Speaker 3: And you've mentioned Talia are your bestie. Yeah, so you
- 13:55Speaker 3: guys moved to New York together and have lived together,
- 13:57Speaker 3: but you also share your finances.
- 14:00Speaker 2: Can you talk us through how does that work? What's
- 14:02Speaker 2: the setup?
- 14:03Speaker 4: The easiest way.
- 14:04Speaker 5: To explain it is we've shared finances for three years
- 14:08Speaker 5: and it operates like a business. So say we have
- 14:12Speaker 5: a business account that sits at the top all of
- 14:14Speaker 5: the income that we make from our marketing job. So
- 14:17Speaker 5: I would say eighty percent of our income comes from
- 14:19Speaker 5: our actual work. So Tyler works at Lenabron's and then
- 14:22Speaker 5: I am a marketing consultant. And then outside of that,
- 14:25Speaker 5: obviously you have bits here and there for like content
- 14:27Speaker 5: creation and tiktoks and instagrams whatnot. All of that gets
- 14:31Speaker 5: like pulled into one account and then think of it
- 14:34Speaker 5: like dividends. So Toles will basically pay like I've never.
- 14:38Speaker 4: Paid my own rent.
- 14:39Speaker 5: She will pay our rent together, our bills, gym, anything
- 14:43Speaker 5: that's like retainer always on so like the lights are on,
- 14:46Speaker 5: you know. And then anything outside of that she'll put
- 14:49Speaker 5: to investments. So she does all of our investing for us.
- 14:52Speaker 2: Wow.
- 14:52Speaker 4: Yeah, she is a gun like so grateful.
- 14:56Speaker 5: And then from there I get a dividend of spending money.
- 14:59Speaker 5: So with spending money, people always get confused when we say, oh,
- 15:02Speaker 5: Caitlin like paid for this and bought Tarlie this, but
- 15:05Speaker 5: it's the same account. But realistically it all goes in
- 15:08Speaker 5: and then the dividends of spending money you can kind
- 15:10Speaker 5: of spend on whatever you wants. So if I want
- 15:12Speaker 5: to buy heaps of clothes with my spending money, even
- 15:14Speaker 5: though at the top of the pyramid it maybe it
- 15:16Speaker 5: was more hers or more mine, who knows, I can
- 15:19Speaker 5: still spend, you know, five hundred dollars on whatever. If
- 15:22Speaker 5: I want to go out for dinner with one of
- 15:23Speaker 5: my other friends that's not coming out of technically like
- 15:25Speaker 5: Tarlie's dividend.
- 15:26Speaker 4: Does that make it Yeah?
- 15:28Speaker 5: I think when we explain it people understand it, but
- 15:31Speaker 5: people still think it's pretty strange.
- 15:32Speaker 3: It's kind of like you're paying yourself a wage as
- 15:35Speaker 3: well based off of that money that's left over, or
- 15:37Speaker 3: it's like your pocket money, your extra fun money that
- 15:40Speaker 3: you can use. Yes, but I love the videos of
- 15:43Speaker 3: when you run through your online shopping before.
- 15:47Speaker 2: But I feel like she never judges, which is amazing.
- 15:50Speaker 3: Too, which is probably why because you have this foundation
- 15:52Speaker 3: of like trust together, right, do you.
- 15:54Speaker 2: Ever have to ask permission anything?
- 15:58Speaker 5: But if we're putting things on the joint account, so
- 16:01Speaker 5: then we have like personal credit cards and personal debit cards,
- 16:04Speaker 5: and we have a joint account that has two cards
- 16:06Speaker 5: credit card and debitcard linked.
- 16:07Speaker 4: Yeah, generally speaking that it's like if.
- 16:09Speaker 5: We, for example, we hosted a coffee meetup with our
- 16:12Speaker 5: followers in Melbourne and Sydney and that we paid for
- 16:15Speaker 5: all their coffee, so that would go on the joint card.
- 16:17Speaker 2: Yeah, it's weird basically.
- 16:19Speaker 5: Yeah, I was going to say, you would probably have
- 16:20Speaker 5: a very similar operation because you do run a business
- 16:24Speaker 5: and you are best friends, so you have that income.
- 16:26Speaker 4: But that's some socials or sponsors or whatever it is.
- 16:29Speaker 3: You know, whether somebody is thinking of sharing finances with
- 16:32Speaker 3: a friend or a partner or maybe a family member.
- 16:34Speaker 2: What would be your number one tip? Or piece of
- 16:37Speaker 2: advice after sharing finances with a friend.
- 16:40Speaker 5: I definitely think money mindset, which I know that whole
- 16:43Speaker 5: term is very much thrown around a lot, but I
- 16:46Speaker 5: do think it's very important and I'm sure a lot
- 16:48Speaker 5: of people can relate. If you have friends, like very
- 16:51Speaker 5: close friends, you'd probably notice you guys all typically and
- 16:54Speaker 5: really nice friendship have similar mindset, whether that's everything works
- 16:56Speaker 5: out in the wash or you owly eight dollars sixty five. Yeah,
- 17:00Speaker 5: so it's very important.
- 17:03Speaker 4: Everything works out.
- 17:04Speaker 5: Yeah, And I've always been like that, even before I
- 17:08Speaker 5: was like salaried and I was working like three jobs,
- 17:10Speaker 5: I would always make sure I had enough money. If
- 17:12Speaker 5: I was asking someone out for coffee, I knew that
- 17:14Speaker 5: I had to have double the amount of money to
- 17:15Speaker 5: pay for their coffee, do you know what I mean?
- 17:16Speaker 5: So I think Tylier and I, even though we grew
- 17:19Speaker 5: up in very different household we have a very similar money.
- 17:22Speaker 3: Mindsetial money wise, Yeah.
- 17:24Speaker 5: And I think that's super important. And I also think
- 17:26Speaker 5: if you are more like you need to transmit eight
- 17:29Speaker 5: dollars for like the te quilla soda I got you,
- 17:32Speaker 5: You're probably not going to be a great person to
- 17:34Speaker 5: share finances with respectfully, so you do. In my opinion,
- 17:37Speaker 5: you need to be leaning more. Everything works out in
- 17:39Speaker 5: the wash because there are months where she'll earn.
- 17:41Speaker 4: A lot more than me.
- 17:42Speaker 5: There are months will earn a lot more than her,
- 17:44Speaker 5: but we're not keeping tabs on what when.
- 17:47Speaker 2: We're go traveling.
- 17:48Speaker 3: It'll be like if one of us paid for dinner
- 17:50Speaker 3: the night before the other one pays for the next night,
- 17:53Speaker 3: it might be double.
- 17:54Speaker 2: Yeah, last night was seventy five, but didn't tonight it's
- 17:57Speaker 2: fifty five. So actually there's the living.
- 18:00Speaker 5: Yeah, Like yesterday Tyles went to Lulu Lemon and she said,
- 18:04Speaker 5: do you need anything. I said, yeah, actually need me
- 18:05Speaker 5: a pair of leggings because it didn't bring any, and
- 18:07Speaker 5: then she brings them home. But I'm not sitting there thinking, oh,
- 18:10Speaker 5: I owe you from your dividend or anything like that,
- 18:12Speaker 5: and she would never expect that from me.
- 18:14Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, So it's just.
- 18:16Speaker 3: Having that understanding and also maybe as well, like having
- 18:19Speaker 3: an understanding of how the setup works, Like I know
- 18:22Speaker 3: that you said that you're a bystand up, but even
- 18:25Speaker 3: by the way that you explained it just now, and
- 18:27Speaker 3: like the content that you share and how like she
- 18:29Speaker 3: runs it through with you. Like you know where the
- 18:31Speaker 3: money is going, you know how the system works, Whereas
- 18:34Speaker 3: I think, especially in romantic relationships, sometimes somebody will take
- 18:38Speaker 3: full control of the finances and that can maybe.
- 18:41Speaker 2: Be a bit of a troubling situation if you don't know.
- 18:44Speaker 3: Yeah, and it just seems to be able to have
- 18:46Speaker 3: like the sometimes not saying that you guys have ever
- 18:48Speaker 3: had this if it is going to be too awkward
- 18:51Speaker 3: to talk about money, that you never end up talking
- 18:54Speaker 3: about it, Like that's not going to help the situation,
- 18:57Speaker 3: Like you need to be able to talk about money,
- 18:59Speaker 3: and it's not uncomfort the books not all like a
- 19:01Speaker 3: gentle very objective conversation.
- 19:04Speaker 5: Yes, And I always say, because I own a house
- 19:07Speaker 5: in Melbourne with my ex boyfriend, I say, like, when
- 19:09Speaker 5: we sell that, then titles will get fifty percent because
- 19:11Speaker 5: all of our investments and everything is split.
- 19:13Speaker 4: And people think it's crazy.
- 19:15Speaker 5: But I also think with her, like she sends me
- 19:20Speaker 5: a Monday update, it's like this is where our investments.
- 19:25Speaker 4: She's the bed. Yeah.
- 19:26Speaker 5: I'm like people always say, oh, it's like crazy. I'm like,
- 19:29Speaker 5: she's actually got the ship out of the.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Best friend relationship the same. I don't think they would judge.
- 19:36Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly, because I was going to ask, is
- 19:38Speaker 3: this a long term thing or is it just while
- 19:41Speaker 3: you're living together in New York?
- 19:42Speaker 2: Like, how do you see this panning out if you
- 19:44Speaker 2: two decide to move in separate.
- 19:46Speaker 3: Cities or maybe and to like different sorts of relationships
- 19:49Speaker 3: or whatever it may be.
- 19:50Speaker 5: Yeah, we always say, well, I was with my boyfriend
- 19:52Speaker 5: of six years when we started doing this, so I
- 19:54Speaker 5: was already in a relationship. Yeah, and then I've had
- 19:56Speaker 5: a boyfriend since and still shared finances with her. And
- 20:00Speaker 5: then we do intend on like buying maybe property together,
- 20:03Speaker 5: and all of our investments are together, so everything is
- 20:05Speaker 5: very joint. It's almost I just say, it's all like
- 20:08Speaker 5: a business.
- 20:08Speaker 4: Yeah, like a business.
- 20:10Speaker 3: It's not in a minimizing way, but like it's just
- 20:14Speaker 3: like amazing to see two women like empower each other
- 20:18Speaker 3: and support each other as well, because I do think
- 20:20Speaker 3: that well, we've spoken about the single tax before as well, and.
- 20:23Speaker 2: How that's really really hard and so a lot.
- 20:26Speaker 3: Of people like, well, fuck, like I have to stay
- 20:28Speaker 3: with this person. Yeah, that's h and that can be
- 20:31Speaker 3: like really limiting as well, So you can like it
- 20:34Speaker 3: doesn't have to just be that hetero relationship.
- 20:37Speaker 5: I think there's so much I guess weight put on
- 20:41Speaker 5: romantic relationships and so much priority put on romantic relationships
- 20:44Speaker 5: and decided they're more important or more trusting. I'm like,
- 20:47Speaker 5: over forty percent of marriages and a divorce, and you're
- 20:49Speaker 5: going to share your money with the men from the pub.
- 20:51Speaker 4: I think I'm going to share it with Talia. You
- 20:53Speaker 4: know what I mean?
- 20:54Speaker 2: Put that, dude, Okay, switching gears a little bit.
- 21:00Speaker 3: You work in marketing and a lot of your content
- 21:03Speaker 3: follows your career. How has your relationship with ambition changed
- 21:09Speaker 3: over the years, Because you know, you said that you
- 21:10Speaker 3: are a very ambitious person and that's a high value
- 21:13Speaker 3: for you, So how has that evolution evolved?
- 21:16Speaker 5: I think the best way to describe is my ambition
- 21:20Speaker 5: level has stayed the same, but the goalposts always moved.
- 21:24Speaker 5: So whilst it might seem like, oh if I achieved
- 21:27Speaker 5: this client or I'm working with this brand or I'm
- 21:29Speaker 5: doing this, my ambition is actually growing, it's not the case.
- 21:32Speaker 5: It's more so the goals are getting bigger and then
- 21:33Speaker 5: being achieved, and then you kind of go, okay, what
- 21:36Speaker 5: could I do next?
- 21:37Speaker 4: And then the goal get bigger and then you achieve it.
- 21:38Speaker 5: But the ambition level is very consistent in terms of
- 21:41Speaker 5: always wanting to be the best given in my craft.
- 21:45Speaker 3: I think that's so cool because then it means that
- 21:47Speaker 3: you're not waiting for those big opportunities to put the
- 21:49Speaker 3: hard work in. Even if it is something that might
- 21:52Speaker 3: be a small task or like an early stage in
- 21:54Speaker 3: your career, you can still put a lot of that
- 21:56Speaker 3: hard work and ambition.
- 21:57Speaker 2: In and that will pay off long run.
- 22:00Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 22:01Speaker 5: Even when I was running social media accounts for like
- 22:03Speaker 5: local cafes when I was sixteen, I was.
- 22:05Speaker 4: I was pushing.
- 22:08Speaker 5: I've been playing fifty dollars a week. I was hustling,
- 22:10Speaker 5: like we can pay you sixty five dollars a week.
- 22:12Speaker 3: Now I'm working at a startup right.
- 22:16Speaker 5: Yeah for six months, yeah, yeah, yeah, but it just
- 22:20Speaker 5: wasn't really conducd for what I wanted to do. I
- 22:23Speaker 5: was really long and yeah, I wasn't super passionate about
- 22:28Speaker 5: working there. So then I think there's a massive stigma around, oh,
- 22:31Speaker 5: you have to stay somewhere for a year, whereas kind
- 22:33Speaker 5: of coming back to our point of moving, I'm very
- 22:35Speaker 5: like fast and loose. Yeah, soit us I'm not really
- 22:38Speaker 5: enjoying this. I think I'm going to quit tomorrow. I
- 22:41Speaker 5: love that, okay, And again coming back to the shared finances,
- 22:45Speaker 5: when people say what is the benefit, that is the
- 22:47Speaker 5: benefit is because you can take bigger risks, I almost think,
- 22:50Speaker 5: and then know that that person has their salary. You have,
- 22:53Speaker 5: you're always on, and even if you are unhappy in
- 22:56Speaker 5: the workplace or you're not feeling super aligned, you can
- 22:59Speaker 5: make more irrational decisions and then pick up work slowly
- 23:03Speaker 5: again and know that everything will be.
- 23:05Speaker 3: What's the biggest mistake you see people making when trying
- 23:08Speaker 3: to build a personal brand.
- 23:10Speaker 4: Not being known for one thing? I definitely think there's.
- 23:14Speaker 5: This whole uprise of I am the niche, when in reality,
- 23:17Speaker 5: if you look at all of the biggest influences or
- 23:20Speaker 5: the biggest creators or whoever celebrities, even how they got
- 23:23Speaker 5: their start, they are known for one thing. So even
- 23:26Speaker 5: when people talk about alex El can post whatever she wants, yes,
- 23:30Speaker 5: of course she can do that now, but at one
- 23:31Speaker 5: point she was known for get ready with me for college,
- 23:35Speaker 5: you know what I mean?
- 23:36Speaker 4: And it evolves.
- 23:37Speaker 5: So I definitely think that people need to realize that
- 23:41Speaker 5: just because you start in one Niche doesn't mean you
- 23:43Speaker 5: can never branch out. And I always say, if you
- 23:45Speaker 5: guys are at coffee and you were trying to describe me,
- 23:48Speaker 5: what do I want you to say? Yeah, so put
- 23:50Speaker 5: that in a mind map. And then outside of that,
- 23:53Speaker 5: you should be creating content that leads into that overarching thing.
- 23:56Speaker 5: And of course, just like friendships or relationships, a different
- 23:59Speaker 5: version of you will exist in everyone's mind. But as
- 24:01Speaker 5: long as you kind of have three key ones like
- 24:04Speaker 5: mine might be how to dress your body type, then
- 24:06Speaker 5: it might be TikTok girl that might be Australian in
- 24:08Speaker 5: New York. But as long as I do content that
- 24:10Speaker 5: kind of ping pongs around those three, you're kind of
- 24:13Speaker 5: sitting in there.
- 24:14Speaker 2: You know, that's good advice because that's easy to action.
- 24:17Speaker 3: Of being like okay, cool, I can draw this out
- 24:19Speaker 3: and like literally create a mind Matt.
- 24:21Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that. Yeah, I love that shit.
- 24:26Speaker 2: I'm like rebrand. Sorry, I'm excited, I'm hitting.
- 24:29Speaker 4: Your but you know what I mean.
- 24:31Speaker 5: Like Tiles and I sit a coffee all the time
- 24:33Speaker 5: and I, oh, what's that girl's name?
- 24:36Speaker 4: She does this style of content. She normally wears like here,
- 24:41Speaker 4: that's exactly.
- 24:42Speaker 5: What happens, you know, or even now I forgot her name,
- 24:46Speaker 5: the girl that's only trying to buy twelve things for the.
- 24:48Speaker 4: Year, Brooklyn Brooklyn boom.
- 24:49Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 24:50Speaker 5: And then I said, so funny you say that. I
- 24:52Speaker 5: know that she does that, but I know her for
- 24:53Speaker 5: the payphones calling so and I was talking about that
- 24:58Speaker 5: with my manager yesterday and I said, that's a perfect example.
- 25:01Speaker 4: Brook I know.
- 25:02Speaker 3: I saw that we've been calling her Brooklyn for like,
- 25:06Speaker 3: we've spoken about her a couple of times on the
- 25:07Speaker 3: pod recently, and she was like, yeah, my name's Brooke.
- 25:11Speaker 3: I just thought it was boring to put on social media.
- 25:13Speaker 4: So she's smart.
- 25:14Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, yeah, because do.
- 25:18Speaker 4: You guys watch the Fat Sundays Girls?
- 25:21Speaker 2: I love that.
- 25:22Speaker 4: But that's that's my point, is like tell me their names.
- 25:25Speaker 4: I know and the other one I don't know any
- 25:27Speaker 4: of them.
- 25:27Speaker 3: Maybe characters will be in like literally a pub toilet
- 25:32Speaker 3: and so I won't even be with me, and she'll go,
- 25:34Speaker 3: you're two broke chicks.
- 25:36Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know one.
- 25:38Speaker 2: Of me, but it was that's my name. Yeah.
- 25:42Speaker 4: So you guys have done a wonderful job.
- 25:45Speaker 3: I feel like every girly loves marketing. Do you think
- 25:48Speaker 3: we all just fell in love with it because we
- 25:49Speaker 3: were watching like Andy Anderson and like How to Lose
- 25:51Speaker 3: a Guy in Ten Days, and like the marketing girl
- 25:54Speaker 3: right is like the modern day version of like the
- 25:57Speaker 3: two thousands rom com journalists.
- 26:00Speaker 2: I feel like the girl is just love marketing.
- 26:02Speaker 5: I think it's because it is a fun job, like
- 26:05Speaker 5: when everyone says what your hobby and I say, so
- 26:08Speaker 5: lome working. It's because I love it's so interesting. Yeah,
- 26:13Speaker 5: And I also do think because of social media and
- 26:17Speaker 5: guidelines and restraints, there's not actually a lot of people
- 26:19Speaker 5: who are like lawyers or work at VC funds or
- 26:22Speaker 5: private equity that are allowed.
- 26:23Speaker 2: To post, so we have more access.
- 26:25Speaker 5: To see like the inside of marketing. And of course
- 26:28Speaker 5: marketing girls using their marketing brains probably think how can
- 26:30Speaker 5: I make my day and lifelogs look more interesting? They
- 26:33Speaker 5: make their jobs look more interesting, the industry looks more interesting,
- 26:35Speaker 5: like you know, kind.
- 26:36Speaker 2: Of as I would love to know, what are your
- 26:38Speaker 2: marketing hills? You will die on.
- 26:40Speaker 5: Free shipping. Free shipping needs to be offered. We know
- 26:43Speaker 5: it's the biggest barrier to people purchasing. I know personally,
- 26:46Speaker 5: if I get to the end, even my cart was
- 26:48Speaker 5: like one hundred and thirty dollars if you're charging me
- 26:50Speaker 5: ten dollars shipping. The psychology behind it it is basically
- 26:53Speaker 5: an emotional response that you think, oh, I don't want
- 26:55Speaker 5: to do that. And I did a post on my
- 26:58Speaker 5: marketing page where I basically said, you're margin isn't the
- 27:00Speaker 5: consumer's problem because I think a lot of businesses will say, well,
- 27:03Speaker 5: it's really expensive for me. It's like, well, that's great,
- 27:06Speaker 5: but the consumer will go somewhere else because there's so
- 27:08Speaker 5: many options in e commerce these days, which is unfortunate.
- 27:11Speaker 5: But you kind of like, don't hate the player, hate
- 27:13Speaker 5: the game.
- 27:13Speaker 3: Do you have any accounts that are like your favorite
- 27:15Speaker 3: marketing accounts?
- 27:16Speaker 4: Well? Who do I like? Obviously the Shearlocks Girls. They
- 27:19Speaker 4: are great.
- 27:19Speaker 5: I wouldn't even say that they're like typically marketing. I
- 27:22Speaker 5: think Tvashkin does a really great job. Lobby Oh Jem.
- 27:26Speaker 5: I feel like I have to say that they were
- 27:27Speaker 5: my first client, oh Love. They do a great job
- 27:30Speaker 5: of educating as well as entertainment, which I really like.
- 27:35Speaker 5: I think it's harder to get people to follow brands
- 27:37Speaker 5: these days.
- 27:37Speaker 4: Yeah versus people.
- 27:39Speaker 3: Well, that's why you see so many brands moving into
- 27:41Speaker 3: such like personality led.
- 27:43Speaker 5: Yeah. I think the reason it works well is because
- 27:45Speaker 5: people want to see groups of people rather than one person,
- 27:49Speaker 5: because in today's sand Eich, everyone wants to be a
- 27:51Speaker 5: content creator. So it's like, oh, I've seen this before,
- 27:53Speaker 5: but when you see a group, you can kind of
- 27:54Speaker 5: see in person dynamics. And if you don't have a
- 27:56Speaker 5: group of say friends at work, you'd be like, oh,
- 27:59Speaker 5: that's really cool. I just hope that they're getting paid
- 28:01Speaker 5: fairly and that bonuses are set accordingly.
- 28:03Speaker 2: That's fair.
- 28:04Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 28:05Speaker 3: Kind of to round out the episode, we want to
- 28:07Speaker 3: know what does a rich life look like to you,
- 28:10Speaker 3: not just financially but emotionally.
- 28:13Speaker 5: I always joke that like, one day I'll just delete
- 28:15Speaker 5: all my socials and like live in Montana.
- 28:17Speaker 3: But that's me in like a castle in Scotland.
- 28:23Speaker 2: I'm like, and I'm gonna have seven cats.
- 28:25Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say.
- 28:27Speaker 5: I know everyone always says like everyone in my life
- 28:29Speaker 5: is really healthy, but I do think that obviously, and
- 28:32Speaker 5: everyone being really happy with what they're doing.
- 28:36Speaker 4: So whether that's like.
- 28:37Speaker 5: My parents at their jobs, like really enjoying their job
- 28:39Speaker 5: and not thinking that they just have to work, or
- 28:42Speaker 5: I know that is like a luxury, but that would
- 28:44Speaker 5: be my ultimate rich life is like everyone in my
- 28:46Speaker 5: life because I think that energy very much like bleeds
- 28:49Speaker 5: into how you like converse with them their life satisfaction,
- 28:52Speaker 5: your life satisfaction and seeing them be really happy.
- 28:56Speaker 3: And I'm throwing you a curveball as well. Perfect because
- 29:00Speaker 3: at the top of the episode we acknowledge that you
- 29:02Speaker 3: are a really good shopper, respect like like, finds like
- 29:09Speaker 3: and I would love to know if you could only
- 29:10Speaker 3: shop at five brands for the rest of your life,
- 29:13Speaker 3: what would they be?
- 29:15Speaker 2: You can take your time naked advice. Yes, I just
- 29:19Speaker 2: think four.

- 29:22Speaker 5: last five years, but really great quality, amazing.
- 29:26Speaker 4: Best jeans have ever put on.
- 29:27Speaker 5: Maxwell Genes tied in the way though, so if you don't,
- 29:29Speaker 5: you know, size up in the white ones.
- 29:30Speaker 4: I would say for affordable pieces.
- 29:32Speaker 5: This might be a bit controversial. Glassons great long sleeves.
- 29:36Speaker 2: Their basics are good, basics are really good.
- 29:38Speaker 5: Basically not going to sit here and list like you know,
- 29:40Speaker 5: crazy brands. I really like the brand Eves ev Es
- 29:44Speaker 5: their pants.
- 29:45Speaker 2: Are they Australian?
- 29:46Speaker 4: I think they might be us. I got them and
- 29:48Speaker 4: Revolve oh, okay inku.
- 29:51Speaker 5: Does that count because it kind of stocks like a
- 29:54Speaker 5: million brands.
- 29:54Speaker 2: I think so it does, it does.
- 29:56Speaker 4: And then probably Reformation.
- 29:59Speaker 5: Oh I really I don't know if you know, like
- 30:02Speaker 5: the studded jeans, the black starded jeans. Yeah, I've gotten them.
- 30:06Speaker 5: I'm obsessed with them. The really great like low rise,
- 30:09Speaker 5: very comfy. I also have like that polka dot dress
- 30:11Speaker 5: from them.
- 30:12Speaker 2: Their paces are beautiful.
- 30:13Speaker 3: I remember you posted a TikTok in like the Reformation
- 30:17Speaker 3: change room, like different items being like which one do
- 30:20Speaker 3: I get?
- 30:20Speaker 2: And I was like every single I was like by
- 30:23Speaker 2: all of them.
- 30:24Speaker 4: The price one can be a bit crazy though they.
- 30:27Speaker 3: Do sales though they stocked at David Jones as well.
- 30:31Speaker 3: David Jones do like twenty five percent off full price
- 30:33Speaker 3: items all the time, and they do get put in
- 30:36Speaker 3: like you know when David Jones do one of those
- 30:38Speaker 3: insane sales where it's like up to eighty percent of Yeah,
- 30:41Speaker 3: they're in there. No so yeah, I got like a
- 30:44Speaker 3: Reformation top like that really puff sleeve milk made the
- 30:47Speaker 3: top for one hundred bucks.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Yeah Australian.
- 30:50Speaker 4: That's great because.
- 30:51Speaker 5: I think it's like two twenty eight US, which is
- 30:52Speaker 5: like free. I think it actually goes for the.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Forecasted price the margin.
- 30:58Speaker 5: Yeah, when we got to Henny, we're like, oh, we'll
- 31:01Speaker 5: try and like the Uller tank in the Mankin and
- 31:03Speaker 5: then do you have the Soria address? Online shopping, but
- 31:07Speaker 5: I pretty much only shop online except when to come
- 31:09Speaker 5: to Australia.
- 31:11Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're so locked in now with it being like.
- 31:13Speaker 3: You're like, I know exactly what I want and I
- 31:16Speaker 3: feel like I need to do that a bit more.
- 31:17Speaker 2: Yeah. But it's so helpful though, because I feel like, you.
- 31:19Speaker 3: Know the silhouettes that you like, and also the brands
- 31:22Speaker 3: that have those pieces and that a good quality as well.
- 31:25Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely.
- 31:26Speaker 5: And also sizing because obviously sizing on different sides and
- 31:29Speaker 5: be like the biggest bitch.
- 31:30Speaker 2: So I'm like, yeah, this is great. Even sometimes when
- 31:33Speaker 2: you shop at the same place.
- 31:35Speaker 4: It's different.
- 31:36Speaker 3: It's like I like, yeah, like I'm like, I'm trying
- 31:40Speaker 3: on jeans in the same store, but they're a different
- 31:43Speaker 3: style and it's and I'm like, it makes fucking sense.
- 31:47Speaker 3: With our guests, we always like to end with the
- 31:48Speaker 3: same question, and it's what is your biggest life lesson
- 31:51Speaker 3: so far?
- 31:52Speaker 5: That's like the biggest question ever, now you can do
- 31:57Speaker 5: it probably actually more of a simple one, but that
- 32:01Speaker 5: obsession beats talent every single time.
- 32:04Speaker 4: I think you can.
- 32:05Speaker 5: Well, you would know people that you went to like
- 32:07Speaker 5: university with, or even like high school with, who are
- 32:09Speaker 5: extremely talented. But unless you're really obsessed with what you do,
- 32:13Speaker 5: I don't think that you become the most successful.
- 32:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 32:17Speaker 5: So I feel like I'm obsessed with TikTok. I'm obsessed
- 32:19Speaker 5: with knowing why brands work, why they don't work, why
- 32:23Speaker 5: consumers shop certain things.
- 32:24Speaker 4: That's what I'm.
- 32:25Speaker 5: Thinking about all the time. I wouldn't say like I'm
- 32:28Speaker 5: overly talented, like I wasn't overly smart in school and
- 32:31Speaker 5: all of that stuff, like traditionally talented. So I definitely
- 32:34Speaker 5: think that obsession. You know, it's like if you guys
- 32:36Speaker 5: are obsessed with making a podcast work, you'll like look
- 32:38Speaker 5: at the data.
- 32:40Speaker 4: Yeah, you know.
- 32:40Speaker 5: Because you're always just ticking versus someone's talented and doesn't
- 32:43Speaker 5: really care. It's like, oh, well that's why they always
- 32:45Speaker 5: say like you're talented but like wasted potential kind of thing.
- 32:48Speaker 3: Yeah, I really like that, and I have one hundred
- 32:50Speaker 3: percent agree like obsession and passion can drive you talent can't.
- 32:55Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that.
