  [SPEAKER_00]: Most high achievers are taking their morning when their brains are the best processing time, and they're using it for dumb things like responding to emails or random things that set them down a side trail.

  [SPEAKER_00]: When instead, they should be focusing on the big project that's gonna move the ball forward on the company.

  [SPEAKER_01]: My friends, action brings clarity.
• 0:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: and it's the antidote to fear.

• 0:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a practice, not a perfect, let's get started.
• 1:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back to the beat till you see it in every recap of my course in life Brad and I are going to dig into the strategically bold combo I had with Molly Asplan in our last episode if you haven't yet listened to interview you can hit pause and go to that one and listen this one if you like to hear the ending first I don't blame you I love that I do that too

• 1:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, I'm only on the episode three.
• 1:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: She's like, why won't we want it for you?
• 1:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because it's like obviously she's all way to Mexico.
• 1:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: And those who know love is blind.
• 1:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: No one I'm talking about.
• 1:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, I don't even remember the name.
• 1:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: She could tell us going on.
• 1:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: She's like, no, I don't want to run it for you.
• 1:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, you, I'm in a Google it.
• 1:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I know that there's ways to find out who stays together before the recap.
• 1:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: So you can ruin it.
• 1:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: what?
• 1:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought that I would watch glitter and gold documentary and I would just be okay a little late to the Olympics because you know I'll just watch it later like not big deal you can just Google it later.
• 2:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then we were listening to a podcast that's nothing to do with sports.
• 2:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 2:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: And they ruined it.
• 2:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I was laughing at you because you Google everything.
• 2:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: I know, but I hadn't googled that because I was trying to do with the way you wanted me to and they ruined it and they ruined it and they ruined it.
• 2:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just going to tell you on case.
• 2:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to ruin it for you now because you know what?
• 2:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's fucking March.
• 2:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: You should know I am.
• 2:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: The villains won.
• 2:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like the villains won.
• 2:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Anyways, the fellas won today as March 19th, 2026 and its companies that care day companies that care day celebrate on the third Thursday in March to encourage employers to start caring for their employees instead of overworking or exploiting them.
• 2:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: This year that would be today.
• 2:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, the happier their employees and more productive they will be most importantly employers must keep in mind that both physical and mental health can have an impact on the performance of workers.
• 2:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: Hence to have a long
• 2:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: to have a long-lasting workplace that can bring to his quality work and players want to show that they care.
• 3:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: This includes celebrating success to the employees or on a number of their great contribution company.
• 3:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: We kick ass, I think as best we can at this, I also think that if like more companies didn't have to make sure their shareholders were happy, they would make sure their employees are happy.
• 3:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I know.
• 3:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's, that's weird, right?
• 3:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's really weird.
• 3:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: I just saw a real where they asked all the like head CEOs of the top health insurance companies, like if they're publicly traded, to raise your hand, they'll all publicly traded.
• 3:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, right.
• 3:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Keep your hand raised if you also own a pharmacy.
• 3:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: Keep your hand raised.
• 3:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you also own doctor's offices.
• 3:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: So the health insurance chemists in the states, of course, they are not only public trade, which means they have to make sure that they are doing as bad what they can for private margins for their stakeholders.
• 3:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: But then they own the doctors' offices to prescribe the prescriptions that own the pharmacies that fill the prescriptions, which means they're in charge of whatever you pay, whether you pay or not, right?
• 3:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was a poor end.
• 3:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
• 3:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: We're sitting in my napply.
• 3:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 4:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 4:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: And they own every part of the chain.
• 4:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
• 4:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Disgusting.
• 4:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: We.
• 4:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: Capitalism at its finest.
• 4:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 4:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: And here's the thing.
• 4:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not like.
• 4:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you are our small business owner in this capitalist society, we do have to play with by the rules that are made.
• 4:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: Your IRS is going to want to make sure that you are doing something that's profiting every year.
• 4:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Otherwise, it's called hobby.
• 4:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: But in that, there are ways to make sure that your employees are thought of and not overworked in some ways.
• 4:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: I was going to say that those guys are breaking the rules or not playing or they have no rules for their game, they're playing.
• 4:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so yeah, but I agree shifting back here to focusing on on companies.
• 4:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's things you can do.
• 4:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's just one female business owner that she forces the company to be closed one week per quarter.
• 4:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's built into the schedules.
• 4:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: They don't have meetings on there.
• 4:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: That way, whatever employees need to do.
• 4:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: They can do obviously they could take vacation times other times, but like, you know, that's going to come down their work, but they have that guarantee the other thing that they have they have paid family for all parents no matter the gender and they also have leave if you had to go to a hospital for sickness things like that, like they've all this extra leave.
• 5:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: And also you can take your meetings from anywhere.
• 5:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a rule wherever you want to take a meeting you can take a meeting.
• 5:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: As long as you get your work done doesn't matter.
• 5:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's one way you could do it.
• 5:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: We have a wins channel.
• 5:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was a wins and gratitude channel where like different people on our team just thank each other for like what they're doing.
• 5:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 5:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's super fun.
• 5:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: We still have everyone's birthdays on there.
• 5:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: And the wind isn't like, oh, we nailed this launch.
• 5:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's like, hey, someone's going to haunt with this project.
• 5:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: And like, that is really fun.
• 5:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: We really have a price of net.
• 5:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: We built in like donating.
• 5:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not huge numbers.
• 5:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, no one's going to, you know, go a while or put less saying Brad on the wall.
• 5:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: But like, we built that in.
• 5:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, there's ways to do things that make sure that you care in different ways.
• 5:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: You just have to build it in.
• 5:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then when you can do better, you do better, you know?
• 5:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: So 100% agree, 100%.
• 5:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: And it's fun.
• 5:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, honestly, it's been,
• 5:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: a dream of mine to have a team of capable enthusiastic.
• 6:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, human beings who are experts at what they do and and bring them all together and it's been really, really fun to make that dream a reality it's really cool it's forced it's also forced us like if we want our people to not overwork and get their work done in a timely manner so they could be with their families and be we've had so many people on our team have babies and things like that then that means we too.
• 6:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: like we've their show of them that we take time for ourselves because otherwise if they're like the boss never stops working then I can ever stop working right so those that's another way to care in a company like if you're like I don't have any extra money right now then lead by example of what you want them to do and you'll and then you'll build that in and then the other thing is like that means we also hire people who care you know we were just talking today this is you know you're hearing this in a different month a month I don't know we're in the past
• 6:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: But we're trying to refill three jobs and we're struggling to find people that actually aren't just using AI to answer all of the questions.
• 7:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's like I love that you know to use AI, but this job that you're going to do doesn't use it in your personality matters.
• 7:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, it can, but that's not the point.
• 7:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: We want to know you.
• 7:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 7:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, we're big fans of hiring a personality and trained skills.
• 7:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: So like if you are a bot, then I'm so sorry.
• 7:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: You don't know that but we have a bot.
• 7:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: We don't need a bot.
• 7:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: We need a person who's cool.
• 7:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: Anyways, come here get with a simple in March We're actually actually 19th.
• 7:29

  [SPEAKER_00]: And then I will report back to decide if he's as hot as where I think he is.
• 8:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I don't know if it's Colin Farrell.
• 8:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 8:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Then after our second honeymoon in France, which we still haven't planned.
• 8:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: But hopefully by the time you're hearing this, we have some idea.
• 8:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: It will be a London for Balanced bodies on tour, plus on tour.
• 8:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: At the time recording this, the last I heard about my work shop.
• 9:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's only room in the Sunday one, a few spots left.
• 9:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: is London, so you want to go to that.
• 9:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: Guys, we probably won't be in Europe for a while.
• 9:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't say that to the right news.
• 9:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no, I think that's fair.
• 9:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, the transparency and honesty are part of our value system.
• 9:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Here's the reality is I'm very excited about the idea of going to Australia and New Zealand.
• 9:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: We haven't done that together.
• 9:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you have.
• 9:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: I have not, and I would love to go.
• 9:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: And not only that, I want to spend time driving around in circles in Australia.
• 9:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so yeah, that's what you're like, oh my god, what you're coming.
• 9:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: This is not planned.
• 9:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: This is not you're putting it out in the universe.
• 9:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: But what that means is that if we're going there, that means we're not going here.
• 9:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: This is what that ultimately means.
• 9:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 9:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: And we are going to Cambodia because we literally put down roots there.
• 9:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, that will always be on the on the list.
• 9:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Spring training is in May and that is online so if you're like guys I can't get on the plane anywhere I don't have the funds or the time or whatever spring training it's going to be all about getting overhead.
• 9:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you're an OPC member it will be free for you.
• 10:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: You just have to register and we'll make sure you check your email for how to do that.
• 10:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're not an OPC member yet you can turn into one and then get it for free or you can pay for it and then fall in love with us and turn into one.
• 10:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: OPC.me slash events is all your what you want to do so make sure you get the
• 10:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I hope you see you dot me slash events.
• 10:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, we can take in our sweet time getting into this interview.
• 10:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, we still have to answer an audience question.
• 10:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so actually Ross and yoga from Instagram is asking, hey, do you run your business as an escort or an LLC?
• 10:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I actually love this question because
• 10:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: So many people in our profile is coaching years with me doing for a very long time.
• 10:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: So many people say my accountants says I don't make enough money.
• 10:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: This is obviously for people in the States.
• 10:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't make enough money to be an escorp and LLC.
• 10:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm a sole proprietor.
• 10:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: And Brad, why is that bad?
• 11:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I mean, in first off, high level.
• 11:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to step back and try to keep this really simple risk.
• 11:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: Let's all about risk management, okay?
• 11:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: And what do we mean by that if you're not in the United States, you're probably laughing because everyone here likes to sue each other.
• 11:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so there's a layer for every 100 people.
• 11:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's insane.
• 11:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Ridiculous.
• 11:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's insane.
• 11:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: Have you met a happy lawyer?
• 11:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Not me.
• 11:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: They all become allies and soldiers.
• 11:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: So anyways, to go to just keep going risk is a thing.
• 11:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: So if you're a sole proprietor and someone gets hurt doing applies with you and you're in the States and your sole proprietor that means your personal assets become part of what they can take advantage of.
• 11:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so you want to be an escorporanelicy.
• 11:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's different reasons to want to be one of the other.
• 11:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I don't think we need a boring anybody with this.
• 11:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: But you should already have been doing that.
• 11:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you are a fitness instructor who takes money from clients to teach fitness, I don't care what your accountant says.
• 12:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: They are not a lawyer.
• 12:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not a lawyer.
• 12:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: So you want to pick one of those.
• 12:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now,
• 12:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: In California, I can say we weren't S-Corp, which was very nice for California, and Nevada, I think, we are.
• 12:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: There's a couple of things to understand here, too, is that when people say S-Corp versus LLC, technically they're confusing two things.
• 12:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's actually corporation versus limited liability corporation or LLC.
• 12:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's C-Corp versus LLC.
• 12:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: You could actually have the S election.
• 12:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: on both of them.
• 12:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's fine.
• 12:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so that is a conversation to have with your accountant.
• 12:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Why would you have an S or an S L L C?
• 12:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's a conversation that you should have with them because that depends on a lot of different factors, right?
• 12:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: But typically what we mean when we say, oh, I have an S corp.
• 12:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: It means we have C corporation with an S election for the federal governments, you know, understanding and the reason that we would do that is because it's just a different way of being taxed.
• 13:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so again, that's why you'd have this conversation with the, with the accountant.
• 13:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: But high level, you know, the pros of an LLC,
• 13:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: are that it's it can be owned by one person.
• 13:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: It can be owned by multiple people.
• 13:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: But all profits are subject to self employment tax.
• 13:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: So like that's where this is where the big conversation is.
• 13:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: How are you paying yourself?
• 13:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: How are you paying your team?
• 13:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: Do you have a team?
• 13:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know,
• 13:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, it traditionally was that, you know, and this is hearsay because I don't have any proof on this, but the new guy at the IRS who's doing audits was always going through the LLCs.
• 13:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: They were very rarely going through the corporations.
• 13:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Corporations are typically larger companies.
• 13:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that was a lie.
• 13:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's what my accountant told me when he brought me into his office.
• 13:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: You never want to call them.
• 13:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Calls me in.
• 13:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: That might take some fact two years.
• 14:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, like, hey, we have to change how you're filing because you're going to get audited because people get audited the most are sole proprietors, and they are the bottom of the totem.
• 14:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, actually, you can't say that because the bottom of the totem poll is the best of the people I was just educated.
• 14:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: So they are the youngest newest.
• 14:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: They've not like all they do is like these, and so, and they're easy, like, kind of be an asshole on audit you because your sole proprietor, and it's not a ton of stuff to go through,
• 14:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Whereas the people who are auditing the S corps or the corporations, they have supposedly have had more experience.
• 14:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: So they understand that corporations have multiple locations for rent.
• 14:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: They understand that corporations have multiple different types of write-offs.
• 14:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I chose a corp because I was like, I want the bet.
• 14:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want it.
• 14:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want it.
• 14:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I want it.
• 14:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I want it.
• 14:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: I want it at the time.
• 14:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: We weren't married.
• 14:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: No, you weren't.
• 14:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: You didn't have
• 14:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like that there's a very clear tax benefit to having a multi-member LLC versus a single member LLC.
• 14:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I remember this whole conversation Yes, so because you didn't have a partner No, then you went in the corporation route because it was better for taxing.
• 15:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, so and then eventually we And then proposed a month later and I was like well, me that would have been nice information.
• 15:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think I'll But anyway
• 15:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: Whatever you choose is going to be a conversation about your growth strategy, your goals for your business with your accountant.
• 15:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: And if you have an accountant that says you don't, you shouldn't do either of these.
• 15:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: You should get a new accountant because that person does not understand the risk and they also are clearly not understanding like your growth strategy.
• 15:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no, I do want to clarify.
• 15:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you're an employee for someone,
• 15:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, this doesn't matter.
• 15:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, none of this matters because, you know, and what I mean to say is if you are only an employee for someone, if you're still taking clients on the side, this matters.
• 15:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
• 15:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: But if you are not taking clients on the side and you're an employee for someone, then what you need is just a typical teacher or liability insurance.
• 15:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Please.
• 15:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: And you're, yeah, the studio.
• 15:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: make sure that you are classified as an actual employee.
• 15:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, this is because way too many this pisses me off.
• 16:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: It really pisses me off.
• 16:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: Way too many studios are misclassifying their teachers as 1099s, right?
• 16:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 16:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not W2.
• 16:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're correct.
• 16:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 16:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: So what is that for people of no idea what we mean?
• 16:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's not for you versus Conqueror.
• 16:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: So they're treating like a conqueror.
• 16:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: So if you are an ICA or an independent contractor.
• 16:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, then I see sorry.
• 16:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I see that you so I don't a true IC mean you make your own schedule.
• 16:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: You have your own insurance.
• 16:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: You have your own way.
• 16:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: Take the payment.
• 16:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: You decide how much money you're charging true true true true.
• 16:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: you would have already, you would impart the conversation Brad and I had already.
• 16:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you think you're an employee somewhere, but they are treating you like an IC as task-fast taxes, go and they are trying to sell it to you like it's better for you, because I mean, you get right offs.
• 16:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: You actually are under that risk part that makes me really nervous.
• 16:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then you and that now we're talking, like, should you have a company so that you can protect your own house car?
• 16:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right, because like, what's, let's say the equipment, but I'll show you your address.
• 17:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: Let me finish my thought.
• 17:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: is that if you're an employee and only an employee and a proper W2 employee, then the studio has the insurance.
• 17:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: So if if if someone were to sue, they wouldn't be suing me, Brad, the employee.
• 17:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they might I might be named in the suit, but really they're suing the company.
• 17:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the company's insurance would definitely.
• 17:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 17:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: So then so yeah, that's the big
• 17:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: So you can see why I get really like I get really pissed when people are misclassified because you don't understand the liability that you're set under and then try to cloak it in oh it's better for you it's it could be yeah if you know that and you are insured properly and your businesses set up properly short.
• 17:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 17:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 17:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right.
• 17:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, hey, that was that was welcome to Brad's time.
• 17:44

  [SPEAKER_01]: And so then I don't know.
• 18:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I need you to send them into this thing so that I know that I can share it.

  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, stick around.
• 18:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: We'll be right back.
• 18:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: We're going to talk about Molly Aspleen and we're going to dig into why she has her podcast.
• 18:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: What she does and how she is kicking ass and taking a name.
• 18:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: We're very back.
• 18:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back.
• 18:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Welcome back.
• 18:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: Let's talk about Molly, yeah, Splendid.
• 18:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Molly is the host of the Dream It Do It podcast and a high performance coach who works with high achieving women who feel like there's something more or something different for their lives and careers than what they're currently doing.
• 19:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm already like ready to jump into the conversation because I thought it was a really amazing thing to be a distinguished between overachieving and high achieving, like this.
• 19:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, anyway.
• 19:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: After spending 10 years in corporate finance, she made the shift into coaching.
• 19:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: And now, supports women in exploring what they're truly good at, what they enjoy, and how they bring more of that into the work and life that they love, whether they're pivoting into something new, or finding fulfillment where they are.
• 19:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: So, yeah, I mean, I want to jump in on what you're saying, because I actually have only ever heard of over-achieving.
• 19:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right, right.
• 19:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: So when I heard the word hi-chieving, I was like, is that just like a rebrand of overachieving, but it's not.
• 19:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not as a recovering over Chiever and perfectionist.
• 19:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: I actually was like, oh, I could still want to achieve things and not end up in my addiction.
• 20:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: So, right?
• 20:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like, I feel like, you know, like, if you compare it to this idea of high performance, we've probably heard of high performance.
• 20:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Athlete usually is what is the next word that comes, you know?
• 20:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: But, but it's very rare that you hear of over it performance athlete.
• 20:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: No, he don't.
• 20:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I mean, I mean, probably just because no one uses that phrase, but I think there's certainly are those kinds of people.
• 20:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, anyways, she said, I think it was, I think it was, I like that we finally got to address that because I don't think on any of the episodes or having someone talk about performance and achievement that we distinguish the difference between the two and I think that that's really helpful.
• 20:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then she also said like a lot of times with hi-a-tivers, and I would say, oh, yeah, this is, I was also saying the over-chevers.
• 20:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: We, I said, we because hello associate loyalty with strength, like you say to yourself, I need to stick this out on a loyal person and this is something that like I come across a lot of times with I just had a coaching call with one of our members and she's like, oh, this person's leaving in May and I'm like, are they bringing you any benefit right now?
• 21:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, it's costing me a lot of money right now.
• 21:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: Why are they staying in tell me?
• 21:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I mean, I told her she could like the loyalty part of it and I'm like
• 21:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no.
• 21:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's nothing, there's no law that says you have to do that.
• 21:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're an employee at an at-wheel state like you can.
• 21:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: They thank you so much for your time.
• 21:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: This will be your last date.
• 21:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: But like, I understand this from a different perspective.
• 21:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'll share it like, I think that's what you all were talking about burnout.
• 21:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 21:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: And being the person who is an overachiever, being in the environment, and then what are the story that we tell ourselves?
• 21:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: We tell ourselves, well, you know,
• 21:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: We might not even be like explicitly saying, I'm loyal, but that's how I used to define myself.
• 21:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm loyal to a fault.
• 21:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and the irony is that it was my own fault.
• 22:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was, I think we're companies that care come in as well because like, so,
• 22:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: companies that don't care will take people like you and I who are like, oh, I'll help with that.
• 22:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I'll help with that.
• 22:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: And they won't go, wow, that person is taking on a lot.
• 22:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe we should take some things off of their plate so that they can do these things, right?
• 22:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: I literally just had this conversation with someone on our team who was like, this project is shifting and in the interim, it will it'll basically come back to me and I'll be handling this
• 22:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's not for you.
• 22:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: That shouldn't be for you.
• 22:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm grateful that you're willing to do it, but that's the wrong.
• 22:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Your efforts are better than that, like bigger than that.
• 22:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Or, you know, the way you think is bigger than that.
• 22:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: So how do we adjust it so that this doesn't land back on your plate.
• 22:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: It shouldn't.
• 22:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
• 22:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so I think like if you're someone who's like, because you said you would do it, you're having a hard time taking yourself away from it or you're finding yourself going, oh, once this happens, then I'll give my notice or once this happens, then I'll break up with this person or once this happens, then it's like, the reality is it's like,
• 23:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: that somewhere in the waiting till this happens, you will take on something else for them.
• 23:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Or something else.
• 23:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so it's really important that you understand, you can still be loyal and strong and a committed team member.
• 23:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: And stop doing it.
• 23:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: like you can't there's conversations that might have to be had there's thing but I think it's important to like at least spot it in yourself so that you can recognize when you're doing it and something that I'm having a hard time with in my own life is like I know that I'm someone who is very present when I'm with you like I try really really hard to when a friend visits or a friendly member's visiting not so much with people I live with but the people who are visiting
• 23:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: very really hard to clear.
• 23:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: My schedule will be really intentional about them knowing how much time I have, all these different things, which means that I might not respond to a text for a bit because I I can't be present in the conversation at the time.
• 24:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: I would have to sit down, think about it, answer it.
• 24:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can't just read it and move on.
• 24:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have to close a loop.
• 24:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's who I am.
• 24:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so, Well, also, too, it's not just that.
• 24:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's like, it's like, if you're going to say something, and then that you know they're going to respond back, but you know you won't be able to get to that response.
• 24:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I can't do it.
• 24:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, that's not wrong.
• 24:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's just like, I can't be there for the ping-ponging back and forth.
• 24:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 24:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: And so, for me, I am really trying to honor that about myself.
• 24:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm a high-achiever.
• 24:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to be overtiver.
• 24:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know how they used to sell Slack?
• 24:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: That was literally the the selling point.
• 24:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Keep the ping pong down.
• 24:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
• 24:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, not the keeping that wasn't even saying like that, but it was effective.
• 24:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like you get to it when you when you get to it.
• 24:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, and that was like the selling point was like, oh, yeah, they can leave you a message.
• 24:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can come circle around.
• 24:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's also how Slack fills for like to me.
• 24:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: And text messages feel like you're supposed to respond, you know, so like because you can't.
• 24:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: because I'm working on just like not over committing myself.
• 25:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not responding, which is in torn, you know, some people don't like that, because that's affecting, that's changing the boundaries in the status quo that they're used to.
• 25:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I am working really hard and going, it doesn't mean I'm not loyal to them.
• 25:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't mean I don't love them.
• 25:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: It just means I can't do it right now.
• 25:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm just sitting that to you because like, if you're trying to re calibrate, which is what Molly talked about, she said, if you find yourself defending what you're doing more than you're enjoying it, complain about it a lot, but you're just trying to find at the same time,
• 25:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: that recalibration means like not just like going to a hotel and like getting a spot weekend and like but yes or just fit tight take some time to go okay what what can I change here what can I share here
• 25:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: What can I ask for help on?
• 25:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Can I say, hey, I know I said I could do this.
• 25:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's taking a little more bandwidth than I thought.
• 25:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Is it possible to get some help on these things or postpone these due dates?
• 25:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you told family members, you would do something, and that is actually becoming something that you're frustrated by.
• 25:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Is it possible to say, hey, guys, unless somebody really wants to do this, do you mind if I hate her it?
• 25:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Do you mind if I, like, is there some else?
• 26:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, it's okay.
• 26:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, these synchronous communication tools about this called, by the way.
• 26:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I just want to put down this rabbit hole.
• 26:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I heard the typing, I was like, what is he doing?
• 26:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: What did I say?
• 26:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Anyways, I just want to say if this episode resonate with you, how low I see you.
• 26:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: I see you and you're still loyal and you're still an amazing committed person, even if you are taking step back from things, taking more time on things, asking for space on things.
• 26:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't mean you're an asshole.
• 26:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: doesn't mean you're an asshole.
• 26:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: No.
• 26:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Love that.
• 26:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 26:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's why next book.
• 26:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're not an asshole.
• 26:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: You need space.
• 26:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, I I really loved when she's talking about high achievers who are generally good at time blocking and getting stuff done, but they're actually not great at.
• 26:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not naturally.
• 26:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're not managing their energy.
• 26:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, so while they might be like okay, I'm blocking out this time to do this and blocking out that time to do that Brad, this isn't this is insane.
• 27:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: This is like literally every single woman that we work with.
• 27:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I was just saying it's very much me too
• 27:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they're they're they're so good at time blocking, but not necessarily putting the blocks of time when the energy is there in order.
• 27:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
• 27:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: And and and specifically when she was talking about what and this is what maybe laugh is it's one of I've heard this a million times, but for some reason this really stood out to me this time was.
• 27:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: when you're thinking what your brain is like at the best capacity relatively early in your day in the morning and that's like science, right?
• 27:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: So unless you're an owl, there's owls and marks and well for sure that for sure that is me, but Daniel Pink wrote a book I can't tell you which book it is but you can just look up which one has time management there and he explains there is like a small percentage of population who are naturally designed to be
• 27:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: people that most people are beginning of the day.
• 28:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: His book is called when the scientific secrets of perfect timing 2018.
• 28:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, when?
• 28:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know what?
• 28:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's crazy.
• 28:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can remember when he said that in a podcast and where I was walking home to our apartment in LA, but the title of the book, not in there.
• 28:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, well, anyway, so most high achievers are taking their morning when their brains are the best, you know, like processing time and they're using it for dumb things like responding to emails or random things that set them down a side trail.
• 28:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: When instead they should be focusing on like the big project that's going to move the ball forward on the company.
• 28:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think let's say get the frog mantra right there's the eat the frog first you do the big thing in the earlier part of your day yeah or you know hug the cactus yeah yeah but but the you're right it's the eat the frog concept of like all right get it out of the way because your brain is functioning the best then but we are letting ourselves be be taken down these other random trails by we think that is not after lunch after I've had lunch
• 29:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: What?
• 29:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, think about it from the sea on.
• 29:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: I am the worst, the worst at breed of stuff after I've had a lunch.
• 29:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I, yeah, I'm a little different now that we've had the Adderall.
• 29:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not going to lie.
• 29:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I actually was pretty impressed by myself what I did in the afternoon, but I, naturally, the, I'm, I'm good at teaching and coaching.
• 29:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can actually be really present and pour into somebody else, but to like creatively think about some project.
• 29:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, that would be a good time for me to do my emails if I
• 29:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, today was really interesting.
• 29:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I actually did my that kind of stuff slack emails at the end of the day.
• 29:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's a good day.
• 29:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, actually, I thought it was good.
• 29:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it didn't set me up for the phone call I had at five o'clock.
• 29:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: But.
• 29:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: But it's a new system, so you don't have to figure that out.
• 29:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: I was the first time I was like, oh, oops.
• 29:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Anyway, the point is that if you have a bigger project that's going to move the company forward, you want to do it in the day.
• 30:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like, for studio owners, imagine, you know, waking up in the morning and the first thing you do is like pull out the dust pan and broom when you sweep the studio.
• 30:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: You're like wasting your brain on something that and just in case.
• 30:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's mundane.
• 30:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: In just in case you're not a company or a studio.
• 30:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: this could be like life stuff.
• 30:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Sure.
• 30:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: You know, like a lot of people on the weekends are like, oh, I want to do this big thing.
• 30:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to like clean up my closet, but you don't do that in the morning.
• 30:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: You like go grocery shopping.
• 30:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: Sure.
• 30:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: You organize the clean the kitchen.
• 30:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, in fact, if you were to do that in the beginning part of your day when you have a lot more energy and then you did the other stuff at the slower time, it would be better.
• 30:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 30:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, you know, I mean, Molly can tell you how to manage your time.
• 30:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, we're saying is if you're listening to this podcast, you're probably someone who time blocks the fuck out of your life and doesn't have the energy to do what you've time blocked.
• 30:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 30:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: Here's your sign.
• 30:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I mean, also too, we're just so distracted, right?
• 30:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's so easy for like,
• 31:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I can't tell you how many times.
• 31:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: I actually caught myself today, which is really interesting that I hopped on to dig into Slack, to get through everything for the team.
• 31:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: The first thing I did took me to my email, which took me to this other thing, took me this other thing, took me this other thing, and then all of a sudden, 10 or 15 minutes ago, I was like,
• 31:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: What was I even doing?
• 31:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I literally got to one message in what I was trying to do, which was Slack, right?
• 31:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's like, oh, okay, hold on.
• 31:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm, this is not a win.
• 31:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: Like, also, too, the notifications on my phone.
• 31:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: If my phone is up, it's like, every two minutes.
• 31:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, like, minimizing those, that's important to do.
• 31:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: But effectively, when you know this about yourself,
• 31:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you can reorient your projects so that you're mourning or you're when your peak time that your brain is functioning is when you're doing the thing that needs to actually happen to get things done you're going to love life so much better.
• 31:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you.
• 31:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
• 31:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
• 31:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: Anyway, stick around.
• 32:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: We'll be right back because we're going to dig into this be it action items that we got from Molly Asplen in a moment.
• 32:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: All right, so finally let's talk about those be it action items what bold executable intrinsic or targeted action items can we take away from your conversation with Molly ass blend She was talking about pivoting to something new like changing things you know in mid stride
• 32:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: pivoting usually is like, I'm going this way and now I'm changing it to go that way, right?
• 32:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: So she's saying that it's not about taking this big leap immediately for her, she did it in a little bit more of a thoughtful way.
• 32:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: She said you usually already know what your next bold move is just kind of inherently know.
• 32:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: But the question is,
• 32:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: When are we ready to tackle that thing, right?
• 32:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: And it's very easy to say, I'm gonna get to it.
• 32:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna get to it.
• 32:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna get to it.
• 32:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: So how do we actually get to it?
• 32:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: And she was talking about her clients and she was like, you know, she had a client say to her, I want to start a podcast.
• 33:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm gonna do that at some point.
• 33:07
  [SPEAKER_00]: And she's like, well, why don't you start it now?
• 33:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: And she's like,
• 33:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I guess I guess it could start it now.
• 33:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so recording.
• 33:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 33:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: And you know, you don't have to figure out you can always add an intro later.
• 33:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like you don't have to have the name figured out.
• 33:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: You could just like start recording yourself.
• 33:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but but but that left her that led her down to this tool that she uses that is like one bold move a day one bold courageous move a day and that means after 30 days you have done 30 bold courageous moves right and so what is a bold courageous move what could that be it might be like actually responding to the text message you've been avoiding.
• 33:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 33:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: That could be bold.
• 33:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: It might be making the phone call that you're like, I just don't want to take the time.
• 33:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, if you do it when you're brain is active, the most active, you know, it will be less burdensome for my ADHD people listening.
• 34:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: you'll be shocked how quickly it it goes.
• 34:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: If it's the phone call you've been avoiding.
• 34:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like I hate.
• 34:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's not, I mean, it's true.
• 34:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a actual sign of ADHD.
• 34:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: So, and because you and I have it, and we attract people who are like most of our listeners, probably you're really good at like a lot of like big thinking projects, but like, you know, calling your accountant just feels like the most annoying thing to do.
• 34:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then you're like,
• 34:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know what I mean?
• 34:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, just me.
• 34:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: But the other day I had to make two phone calls and I was so shocked that I was able to do two phone calls in five minutes.
• 34:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, whoa, why I put that off for like 72 weeks?
• 34:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, so I just would say like do it when you have the high energy for it.
• 34:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like that.
• 34:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: I like that.
• 34:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, but, but, but then like also to it, it starts a progression.
• 34:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: One bold move of day.
• 34:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's how confidence is built by the way.
• 34:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 34:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: By doing the same action.
• 34:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then by the way, I'll just double go into my thing.
• 34:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Think about that thing and then you want to do the future and then do it today like it's actually like don't like don't go all I'm going to talk to my friend about doing it.
• 35:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, like go do it send the email like hire the coach like oh I've been really wanting to get on this day in apps So I could find what put the poop bill that the profile like do the actual thing because one you'll be surprised how quickly Some of these things are able to be done in our head.
• 35:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that we've built up to be this hard thing that we have to do.
• 35:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, me too
• 35:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: So take the actual action and don't let that get covered up a plan.
• 35:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just thinking about it.
• 35:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'll tell you one thing.
• 35:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: One way to really earn my, you know, situation is if you just keep talking about the thing you're going to do with me, I can't.
• 35:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't have patience for it.
• 35:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: So like, I don't.
• 35:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's how, it's how I met Brad.
• 35:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I want to know this girl friend of mine just kept complaining about the scarf she lost.
• 35:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I had the exact same scarf.
• 35:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: I love that scarf.
• 35:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I said, if you want, you can have my scarf, the one that you lost.
• 35:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have the other one, which I'm going to do with Brad, because I just needed a shot up.
• 35:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, go buy a new scarf, go call the thing, go see if there's a loss in found or
• 36:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a bucket, I can't.
• 36:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: So anyways, I'm clearly not the person to call for you to repeat yourself.
• 36:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to tell you, take the actual action.
• 36:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then if you want to understand how to get momentum going, she did share free resource called momentumbuilder at molyaskwind.com slash momentum.
• 36:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's Molly a SPL I end com Molly ask one dot com slash momentum pretty cool.

• 36:40
