- 9:27So
- 9:27how
- 9:27do
- 9:28you
- 9:28manage
- 9:29imposter
- 9:29syndrome
- 9:30and

- 9:30doubt?
- 9:31And
- 9:31has

- 9:34at
- 9:34all?
- 9:34Oh
- 9:36no.
- 9:37I

- 9:38a
- 9:38certain
- 9:38extent
- 9:39when
- 9:40you
- 9:40get
- 9:40to
- 9:40a
- 9:40new
- 9:41level,
- 9:41there
- 9:42is
- 9:42always
- 9:42a
- 9:43new
- 9:43kind
- 9:43of
- 9:43imposter
- 9:44syndrome
- 9:45that
- 9:45you
- 9:45will
- 9:45battle.
- 9:46I
- 9:47think
- 9:47somebody
- 9:47said
- 9:47new
- 9:48levels,
- 9:48new
- 9:48devils
- 9:49or
- 9:49something
- 9:49like
- 9:49that.
- 9:51But
- 9:51I
- 9:51think
- 9:52what
- 9:52it
- 9:52does
- 9:53is
- 9:54the
- 9:54fact
- 9:54that
- 9:54people
- 9:55are
- 9:55willing
- 9:55to
- 9:55listen
- 9:56to
- 9:56your
- 9:56point
- 9:56of
- 9:57view.
- 9:57And
- 9:58in
- 9:58the
- 9:58luxury
- 9:59industry,
- 9:59you
- 10:00don't
- 10:00find
- 10:00many
- 10:00people
- 10:01that
- 10:01look
- 10:01like
- 10:02me
- 10:03speaking
- 10:03authoritatively
- 10:05on
- 10:06the
- 10:06different
- 10:06types
- 10:07of
- 10:07luxury
- 10:07clients,
- 10:08I
- 10:09didn't
- 10:09realize,
- 10:09I
- 10:10thought
- 10:10everyone
- 10:10knew
- 10:10what
- 10:11I
- 10:11knew.
- 10:11I
- 10:12honestly
- 10:12thought
- 10:12that
- 10:12was
- 10:12a
- 10:13thing
- 10:13that
- 10:13surely
- 10:14you
- 10:14do
- 10:14not
- 10:15treat
- 10:15every
- 10:16luxury
- 10:16client
- 10:17the
- 10:17same.
- 10:17Then
- 10:18I
- 10:18realized
- 10:18that
- 10:19even
- 10:19the
- 10:19big
- 10:19brands
- 10:20were
- 10:20actually
- 10:20doing
- 10:21that.
- 10:22So
- 10:22this
- 10:22is
- 10:22where
- 10:22I
- 10:23really
- 10:23dived
- 10:23into
- 10:24psychographics.
- 10:25And
- 10:25more
- 10:25importantly,

- 10:28where
- 10:28to
- 10:28find
- 10:28these
- 10:29clients
- 10:29because
- 10:30many
- 10:30luxury
- 10:31brands
- 10:31do
- 10:31not
- 10:31want
- 10:31to
- 10:31share
- 10:32these
- 10:32secrets.
- 10:33So.
- 10:33And
- 10:34somebody's
- 10:34saying,
- 10:34oh
- 10:34my
- 10:34God,

- 10:36whisperer
- 10:36or
- 10:36something
- 10:37like
- 10:37that.
- 10:38So

- 12:24That
- 12:24if
- 12:25there's
- 12:25things
- 12:25you

- 12:25to
- 12:25do
- 12:25in
- 12:26your
- 12:26business,
- 12:26if

- 12:28things
- 12:28you
- 12:28want

- 12:32But
- 12:32done

- 12:34because
- 12:34you'll

- 12:35So
- 12:36it
- 12:36sounds
- 12:36like
- 12:37you
- 12:38don't
- 12:38have
- 12:38to
- 12:38make
- 12:38a
- 12:39conscious
- 12:39decision
- 12:40to
- 12:40live
- 12:40the
- 12:40values
- 12:41in
- 12:41your
- 12:41book.
- 12:42It's
- 12:42actually
- 12:42just
- 12:42naturally
- 12:43in
- 12:43your
- 12:43DNA.
- 12:44I
- 12:44don't
- 12:45know
- 12:45if
- 12:45both
- 12:45of
- 12:45you
- 12:45perhaps
- 12:46are
- 12:46the
- 12:46same.
- 12:46Very
- 12:46different
- 12:47books,
- 12:47very
- 12:47different
- 12:48values
- 12:48and
- 12:48mindsets.
- 12:50How
- 12:51essential
- 12:51is
- 12:52that
- 12:52to
- 12:52a
- 12:52business
- 12:52owner?
- 12:53So
- 12:53could
- 12:53a
- 12:54business
- 12:54owner
- 12:55develop
- 12:56a
- 12:56business
- 12:56successfully
- 12:57that
- 12:58doesn't
- 12:58actually
- 12:59align
- 12:59with
- 12:59their
- 13:00values?
- 13:01No,
- 13:02no,
- 13:03genuinely,
- 13:03I
- 13:03think
- 13:04you
- 13:04can
- 13:04to
- 13:05a
- 13:05point.
- 13:05But
- 13:06I
- 13:06think
- 13:06it
- 13:06always
- 13:07comes
- 13:07out
- 13:07in
- 13:07the
- 13:08end.
- 13:08And
- 13:08I
- 13:08think
- 13:08for
- 13:09any
- 13:09one
- 13:09of
- 13:09us
- 13:09living
- 13:09our
- 13:10lives
- 13:10in
- 13:10any
- 13:10way,
- 13:11we
- 13:11should
- 13:11be
- 13:12authentic
- 13:12to
- 13:12who
- 13:13we
- 13:13are
- 13:13and
- 13:13what
- 13:13we
- 13:14believe,
- 13:14and
- 13:14those
- 13:14values
- 13:15should
- 13:15come
- 13:15first.
- 13:16And
- 13:16we
- 13:16shouldn't
- 13:16be
- 13:16afraid
- 13:16to
- 13:17talk
- 13:17about
- 13:17our
- 13:18values
- 13:18and
- 13:18to
- 13:19live
- 13:19them,
- 13:19because,
- 13:20you
- 13:20know,
- 13:20you
- 13:20can
- 13:21say
- 13:21one
- 13:21thing
- 13:22and
- 13:22you
- 13:23can
- 13:23be
- 13:23one
- 13:23way,
- 13:23but
- 13:24if
- 13:24you
- 13:24then
- 13:25meet
- 13:25that
- 13:25person
- 13:25in
- 13:26real
- 13:26life
- 13:26and
- 13:26they're
- 13:26nothing
- 13:27like
- 13:27that,
- 13:27we
- 13:27feel
- 13:27let
- 13:28down
- 13:28and
- 13:28we
- 13:28feel
- 13:28like,
- 13:28well,
- 13:28that's
- 13:29not
- 13:29who
- 13:29they
- 13:29said
- 13:29they
- 13:29are.
- 13:30And
- 13:30so
- 13:30actually,
- 13:31that's
- 13:31harder.
- 13:31It's
- 13:32living
- 13:32a
- 13:32lie.
- 13:32It's
- 13:33much
- 13:33easier
- 13:33to
- 13:33just
- 13:33go,
- 13:34you
- 13:34know
- 13:34what?
- 13:35I'm
- 13:35not
- 13:35perfect.
- 13:36I
- 13:36am
- 13:36a
- 13:37mum
- 13:37with
- 13:37two
- 13:37kids,

- 13:38there.
- 13:39And
- 13:39trying
- 13:39to

- 20:59to
- 20:59be.
- 20:59And
- 21:00so
- 21:00I

- 21:10few
- 21:11things

- 33:25they
- 33:25make
- 33:26a
- 33:26virtue
- 33:26of
- 33:26that.
- 33:27So
- 33:28I
- 33:28remember
- 33:30quite
- 33:30a
- 33:30few
- 33:30years
- 33:30back
- 33:31now,
- 33:32as
- 33:32a
- 33:32cake
- 33:32maker,

- 33:38of
- 33:39the
- 33:39fact
- 33:39that
- 33:39she

- 33:40cakes
- 33:40properly.
- 33:41Neither
- 33:42could
- 33:42I.
- 33:43So
- 33:43she
- 33:44made
- 33:44a
- 33:44virtue
- 33:44of
- 33:44it.
- 33:45And
- 33:45she

- 33:46cracked
- 33:46concrete
- 33:47kind
- 33:47of
- 33:47style,
- 33:49and
- 33:49before
- 33:49you
- 33:49know
- 33:50it,
- 33:50everybody
- 33:51was
- 33:51literally
- 33:51killing
- 33:52themselves
- 33:52to
- 33:53make
- 33:53that
- 33:53cake.
- 33:54But
- 33:54she
- 33:55made
- 33:55a
- 33:55virtue
- 33:55of
- 33:55it.
- 33:56She

- 34:02So.
- 34:02And
- 34:02that
- 34:03came
- 34:03from
- 34:03her
- 34:04authenticity.
- 34:06And
- 34:06that
- 34:06is
- 34:06the
- 34:06point
- 34:07I'm
- 34:07trying
- 34:07to
- 34:07make,
- 34:08that

- 34:17object
- 34:17has
- 34:18got
- 34:18to
- 34:18be
- 34:18functional.
- 34:20So
- 34:20there's
- 34:20no
- 34:21point
- 34:21in
- 34:21saying
- 34:21it's

- 34:22We're
- 34:22making

- 34:23virtue
- 34:23and
- 34:24the
- 34:24object
- 34:24is
- 34:25unusable.
- 34:26So
- 34:26recently,
- 34:26I
- 34:27know
- 34:27there
- 34:27was
- 34:27a
- 34:27bit
- 34:27of
- 34:27a
- 34:28scandal
- 34:28that
- 34:29certain

- 34:33a
- 34:33luxury
- 34:33brand,

- 34:37it
- 34:38wasn't
- 34:38as
- 34:38handmade
- 34:39as
- 34:39people
- 34:39thought.
- 34:40Now,
- 34:41that
- 34:41is,
- 34:41to
- 34:41me,
- 34:42is
- 34:42fraudulent.
- 34:43But
- 34:43as
- 34:43long
- 34:44as
- 34:44you're
- 34:44making
- 34:45or

- 34:46creating
- 34:46in
- 34:47your
- 34:47authentic
- 34:48way,
- 34:49then
- 34:49you
- 34:49can
- 34:50actually
- 34:50ride
- 34:50that
- 34:51wave
- 34:51of

- 34:52And
- 34:52in
- 34:53the
- 34:53old
- 34:53days,
- 34:53when
- 34:54somebody
- 34:55had

- 34:55couture
- 34:55gown
- 34:56made,
- 34:56there
- 34:57were
- 34:57tiny,
- 34:57tiny
- 34:58drops
- 34:58of
- 34:58blood
- 34:59along
- 34:59the
- 34:59hemline.
- 35:01And
- 35:01that
- 35:01signified
- 35:02that
- 35:02people
- 35:02literally
- 35:03were
- 35:03working
- 35:03themselves
- 35:04to
- 35:04the
- 35:05bone
- 35:05to
- 35:05make
- 35:05your
- 35:06dress.
- 35:07And
- 35:07that
- 35:08some
- 35:08people
- 35:08considered
- 35:09that
- 35:10as
- 35:10a
- 35:10sign
