00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:35.000
<v Speaker 2>I might get a minute of zoomis and then it's

26
00:01:35.079 --> 00:01:36.359
<v Speaker 2>just like, mom, that was hard.

27
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.799
<v Speaker 1>That's amazing. So when you first started, So you recently

28
00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:46.519
<v Speaker 1>celebrated your ten year anniversary for the salon, Yeah, yeah,

29
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>that's incredible. Yeah, what made you get into hair? So

30
00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:53.040
<v Speaker 1>just to recap, because I don't even think I told

31
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:55.040
<v Speaker 1>you this is the first time we're recording. Actually recorded

32
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:59.000
<v Speaker 1>a podcast episode earlier with doctor Liz, she's a natural

33
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:01.640
<v Speaker 1>pathic doctor here in Bear and we did the same

34
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:04.359
<v Speaker 1>thing because I'm like, you're cool. I like you, I

35
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:07.000
<v Speaker 1>want to know about you. Let's have a conversation and

36
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:09.000
<v Speaker 1>let's record it at the same time, so like, we

37
00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:11.759
<v Speaker 1>don't have any notes in front of us. But so

38
00:02:11.879 --> 00:02:14.039
<v Speaker 1>a few months agoing to a survey, and I talked

39
00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:16.800
<v Speaker 1>to some of the members in that survey what would

40
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:19.120
<v Speaker 1>you like to hear more of? And something that they

41
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:23.080
<v Speaker 1>spoke about was having confidence and self esteem and how

42
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:26.159
<v Speaker 1>to like present well and stuff like that. And at

43
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:29.120
<v Speaker 1>the same time, I was watching your social media, your

44
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>personal social media and your business for Chrisma, and I

45
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:37.479
<v Speaker 1>was like, Hey, you got it. Like, there's so much

46
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:39.479
<v Speaker 1>to say. I'm going I'm gonna pass the mic over

47
00:02:39.520 --> 00:02:41.120
<v Speaker 1>to you in a second. But there's so much to

48
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:46.719
<v Speaker 1>say for someone who a empowers women and people in general,

49
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:52.159
<v Speaker 1>who also runs a business and has staff as well,

50
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:56.479
<v Speaker 1>Like that is such a huge thing. And at the

51
00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:58.719
<v Speaker 1>end of the day, there's a lot of parallels as

52
00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:01.280
<v Speaker 1>well with what we're doing is we're empowering people. We

53
00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:05.719
<v Speaker 1>want people to feel good. So in saying that, that's

54
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:08.479
<v Speaker 1>something that the members here have really asked me about

55
00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:10.159
<v Speaker 1>because they're like, oh, I want to know about like

56
00:03:10.199 --> 00:03:12.560
<v Speaker 1>gaining confidence and stuff like that. So like we can,

57
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:14.840
<v Speaker 1>we can do fitness and it helps gain your confidence.

58
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>But there's another piece of the puzzle, and that to

59
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:20.360
<v Speaker 1>me is how people present themselves and stuff like that.

60
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:24.439
<v Speaker 1>So what made you start in that industry? Because that

61
00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 1>is such a big industry like that not like I

62
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.400
<v Speaker 1>don't mean a big industry as in like a lot

63
00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:33.360
<v Speaker 1>of competition. I think with anything, there's competition anywhere, But

64
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:36.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm a community over competition and all yours well, But

65
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:39.919
<v Speaker 1>what made you in that that's such a big crown

66
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:41.919
<v Speaker 1>to have on your head, I guess is what I'm

67
00:03:41.960 --> 00:03:45.639
<v Speaker 1>trying to say, so, why did you pick an industry

68
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:46.199
<v Speaker 1>like that.

69
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:50.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I knew about the competitive side of

70
00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:53.479
<v Speaker 2>the industry. I just knew how it felt when I

71
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:56.360
<v Speaker 2>finally found a hairstylist that made me feel good about

72
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:59.919
<v Speaker 2>my hair, like I hated my hair my entire life.

73
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:03.560
<v Speaker 2>I had naturally curly hair for my dad, but my

74
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:06.479
<v Speaker 2>mom is German, so as the Germans say, we have

75
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:09.840
<v Speaker 2>sour kraut hair, which is really fine, stringy hair. So

76
00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:13.599
<v Speaker 2>I was taught to just brush my hair, and it

77
00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:15.919
<v Speaker 2>always made it big and frizzy because it would brush

78
00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:20.360
<v Speaker 2>my curls out. But my curl patterns actually fairly decent,

79
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.600
<v Speaker 2>so because the curl pattern is really strong once you

80
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:25.800
<v Speaker 2>brush it straight, because it's fine, it will stay straight,

81
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.639
<v Speaker 2>but it expands throughout the day. So my hair would

82
00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:31.680
<v Speaker 2>just always look big and frizzy, and I didn't understand

83
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:35.000
<v Speaker 2>why because I had soft blonde hair naturally, and I

84
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:36.000
<v Speaker 2>couldn't figure it out.

85
00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:37.120
<v Speaker 1>And then.

86
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:40.759
<v Speaker 2>I think I was in grade eleven at the salon

87
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:42.759
<v Speaker 2>I worked at for ten years before I opened my

88
00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:46.680
<v Speaker 2>own salon, Jody, my old boss, cut my hair, and

89
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:50.000
<v Speaker 2>she was like, you have naturally curly hair.

90
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:50.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, no, I.

91
00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Don't, and she's like, yeah, no, no, like you do.

92
00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:58.600
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, no, I really don't. So when you're hot, yeah,

93
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:00.759
<v Speaker 2>because I was brushing you straight. Nobody ever taught me

94
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:03.120
<v Speaker 2>how to care for my hair. So that's something that

95
00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:05.680
<v Speaker 2>we really do in our salon is like we teach

96
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:08.680
<v Speaker 2>our clients their hair is not the problem. We use

97
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:11.920
<v Speaker 2>the right products for our hair, and we care for

98
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:14.439
<v Speaker 2>our hair properly, even with colors. If a color is

99
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:16.279
<v Speaker 2>going to be bad for your hair, we're going to

100
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:18.199
<v Speaker 2>teach you about the colors that would be right for

101
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:20.360
<v Speaker 2>your hair that won't do as much damage. A lot

102
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:22.680
<v Speaker 2>of people think you need to bleach everything, lighten or

103
00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:24.839
<v Speaker 2>lighten or lighter. You know, you can use high lift

104
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:27.639
<v Speaker 2>blondes if you need to. Like, there's so many ways

105
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:29.480
<v Speaker 2>to get to one different look, and we find the

106
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:32.120
<v Speaker 2>right one that's for our clients specifically.

107
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.639
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Yeah, I did not know any of this. Yeah,

108
00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:38.399
<v Speaker 1>someone who has actually curly hair. This is the first thing.

109
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:41.279
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know why, but I'm a firm believer,

110
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:43.720
<v Speaker 1>like for at least the last decade, and like I

111
00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:45.600
<v Speaker 1>don't leave the house with wet hair because it makes

112
00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:48.160
<v Speaker 1>me look like I'm disorganized. Yeah, so I put that

113
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:48.959
<v Speaker 1>like in my brain.

114
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:51.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that No, you didn't put that in your brain.

115
00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:54.519
<v Speaker 2>Do you know how many women think that because they're

116
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:59.000
<v Speaker 2>taught like a smooth, blown out look is normal, is

117
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:02.240
<v Speaker 2>put together, but naturally curly hair is borgeous and it

118
00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:04.240
<v Speaker 2>should be allowed to be free and wild, just like

119
00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:04.639
<v Speaker 2>it is.

120
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:08.199
<v Speaker 1>I love youself, be free. I was like, because if

121
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:09.639
<v Speaker 1>the one time I do this and the last how

122
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:11.800
<v Speaker 1>many years, I'm meeting you today, But in my brain,

123
00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:15.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I know that you're not not judgmental. No, no,

124
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:18.480
<v Speaker 1>And I know people that have visited you and visited

125
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:20.920
<v Speaker 1>your business as well, and that's something that they have

126
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:23.040
<v Speaker 1>said before, and they're like, oh when I walk in there,

127
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:26.079
<v Speaker 1>I can be myself. Yeah, Martina listens like it's like

128
00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:28.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing this with my hands like a match made

129
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:33.720
<v Speaker 1>for here an Yeah, a match made in heaven. I

130
00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:36.160
<v Speaker 1>stopped because I instantly thought of this. There's like a

131
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>Brian Adams song that came in my brain. It's like

132
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:41.759
<v Speaker 1>something about in heaven or something. I don't know. Anyway,

133
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:45.399
<v Speaker 1>So you started at a song before, yeah, working and

134
00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:48.720
<v Speaker 1>then you worked there for ten years? Yeah? Wow, it was.

135
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:51.560
<v Speaker 2>It was when I had my first son, and like

136
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:53.920
<v Speaker 2>going on Matt leave and then having to leave him

137
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:56.000
<v Speaker 2>to go back to work. I always said I wanted

138
00:06:56.000 --> 00:06:59.199
<v Speaker 2>to be a salon owner, and I don't really know why.

139
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I just did. And maybe it was.

140
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:04.720
<v Speaker 2>The passion for wanting people to understand they're not the problem.

141
00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:09.680
<v Speaker 2>They're very well marketed too, and that's why they think

142
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:15.519
<v Speaker 2>they're the problem. So yeah, once I left work and

143
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:17.879
<v Speaker 2>went on Matt leave and was with him all the time,

144
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:21.600
<v Speaker 2>and then going back part time and leaving him, and

145
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:24.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, if I'm going to leave him, it needs

146
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:26.360
<v Speaker 2>to be for something substantial.

147
00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:28.720
<v Speaker 1>And I loved that business. Like family.

148
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:32.279
<v Speaker 2>It was Italian owned. I'm still really best friends with Robin.

149
00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:36.279
<v Speaker 2>It's now it was Susette's and Innisville. It's now called Rovenko.

150
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:39.439
<v Speaker 2>She just did a big, beautiful rebrand and remodel on

151
00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:42.079
<v Speaker 2>the salan and is taking it over and like growing

152
00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:45.720
<v Speaker 2>it into the next era of hairstylists. Yeah, so that's

153
00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:49.800
<v Speaker 2>three generations of family. The aunt owned it originally, then

154
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.079
<v Speaker 2>Jody and now Jodie's daughter.

155
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:53.759
<v Speaker 1>So that's special.

156
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:55.839
<v Speaker 2>I know it's a special business and I got to

157
00:07:55.879 --> 00:07:58.079
<v Speaker 2>be a part of that, but I wanted to build

158
00:07:58.079 --> 00:07:59.480
<v Speaker 2>something like that for my family.

159
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.319
<v Speaker 1>I think, just something for my own. So and fast

160
00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.399
<v Speaker 1>forward now ten years, ten years, and you moved in

161
00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:07.639
<v Speaker 1>the last two years.

162
00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so it'll be it was a year ago January.

163
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:16.639
<v Speaker 2>We moved Christmas of I don't even remember what was

164
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:18.800
<v Speaker 2>a year ago twenty twenty five, So we moved Christmas

165
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:21.920
<v Speaker 2>of twenty twenty four. We closed shutdown shop and moved

166
00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:22.639
<v Speaker 2>everything over.

167
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:27.240
<v Speaker 1>That makes sense because I moved. So for those who

168
00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:29.800
<v Speaker 1>don't know, Christmas next door and you Unit one in

169
00:08:29.839 --> 00:08:32.759
<v Speaker 1>two at fifteen Cedar Point Drive, it's actually where the

170
00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:35.639
<v Speaker 1>transformation station was before. And I think that's why I

171
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:38.639
<v Speaker 1>naturally gravitated to you, because I was like, oh my gosh,

172
00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:41.120
<v Speaker 1>and I knew your business before, just actually through Ashley.

173
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:43.159
<v Speaker 1>He's a mutual friend of hers, and I was like,

174
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:45.720
<v Speaker 1>oh okay, because she always spoke very highly of you

175
00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:49.679
<v Speaker 1>and her hair, which you were doing and still do. Yeah.

176
00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:51.720
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, oh my gosh, because I actually

177
00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:54.879
<v Speaker 1>called the landlord because I'm nosy as shit sometimes and

178
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:58.320
<v Speaker 1>I do my best. I don't love to tell secrets, right,

179
00:08:58.399 --> 00:09:00.919
<v Speaker 1>so I try to know what I know is what

180
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I know, and I try to keep appropriate things to myself. Yeah,

181
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:05.679
<v Speaker 1>but I was like, what are they doing in there?

182
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Like this is interesting? So I called. I was like,

183
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:10.320
<v Speaker 1>what's going in next door? And they're like, oh, it's

184
00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:12.600
<v Speaker 1>a hair place. So I'm like who. I was like,

185
00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:14.840
<v Speaker 1>no way, this is awesome. And then there was one

186
00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:16.879
<v Speaker 1>day I was driving back. We were doing an event here,

187
00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:19.600
<v Speaker 1>so I got the key here December twenty six, on

188
00:09:19.679 --> 00:09:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Boxing Day, Yeah, and that's when we started moving everything over. Yeah.

189
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:24.120
<v Speaker 1>And then I remember I was driving by one day

190
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:26.080
<v Speaker 1>and the doors were open, so I actually left my

191
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.799
<v Speaker 1>car running the keys in it and you weren't there,

192
00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and you probably walked into my phone number written in

193
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.080
<v Speaker 1>like three feet numbers on like a box or something. Yeah.

194
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:38.120
<v Speaker 1>You talked to my husband and I walked here. I

195
00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:40.360
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh, hi, I'm Christina. I need to introduce himself.

196
00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:41.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm like what are you doing? And he's like, do

197
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:42.960
<v Speaker 1>want to see you? I was like, yeah I do.

198
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:44.720
<v Speaker 1>I was like okay, I'm like if you need help

199
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:46.679
<v Speaker 1>or if you have questions or give my number to

200
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.919
<v Speaker 1>Martina whatever. He's like, okay, cool. And I think I

201
00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:51.960
<v Speaker 1>wrote it on a box maybe or kind of somewhere. Yeah,

202
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:54.919
<v Speaker 1>but it was really exciting. But like you moved so

203
00:09:55.240 --> 00:09:58.639
<v Speaker 1>about two ish years ago, Yeah, and what was that?

204
00:09:59.039 --> 00:10:02.799
<v Speaker 1>Did you your vision change or yeah?

205
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.919
<v Speaker 2>Like I opened my business with no staff and a

206
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:14.399
<v Speaker 2>dream three years before covid hit. Okay, so we were

207
00:10:14.440 --> 00:10:17.279
<v Speaker 2>only three years old when covid hit. I had my

208
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:23.039
<v Speaker 2>two stylists that started with me as apprentices, were fully

209
00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:28.440
<v Speaker 2>licensed and like doing clients for a year straight. So

210
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:30.879
<v Speaker 2>they were just starting to build momentum. We were just

211
00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:34.320
<v Speaker 2>starting to make money back and then covid hit and

212
00:10:34.519 --> 00:10:38.600
<v Speaker 2>people started doing hair in their homes and the industry

213
00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:42.559
<v Speaker 2>kind of, in my opinion, collapsed and fell apart. An

214
00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:45.679
<v Speaker 2>industry that was supposed to bring people together just became

215
00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:53.480
<v Speaker 2>even more separated. There's a huge disconnect now between people

216
00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:55.480
<v Speaker 2>that want to be independent and people that want to

217
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:58.279
<v Speaker 2>be part of a team. And instead of looking at

218
00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:02.039
<v Speaker 2>like personalities, where treating everyone like they're bad if they

219
00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:04.120
<v Speaker 2>want to be independent, or they're bad if they want

220
00:11:04.120 --> 00:11:06.639
<v Speaker 2>to work as a team. And again me wanting everyone

221
00:11:06.679 --> 00:11:09.240
<v Speaker 2>to realize they're not the problem. I'm like, well I

222
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:12.360
<v Speaker 2>need to fix this again, so why not put myself

223
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:15.840
<v Speaker 2>in more debt once my business is paid for? So

224
00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:20.639
<v Speaker 2>we were getting old, and like after three years old

225
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:23.080
<v Speaker 2>and then going into COVID, I just kept having to

226
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:25.960
<v Speaker 2>pivot every year and change the way I was doing things.

227
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:27.720
<v Speaker 1>And I think people.

228
00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:32.519
<v Speaker 2>Got confused with me and my vision as to why

229
00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:34.679
<v Speaker 2>I had to keep changing things, But it was because

230
00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:37.799
<v Speaker 2>costs kept going up substantially and I didn't have a

231
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:40.080
<v Speaker 2>business degree when I started. I was learning as I

232
00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:43.120
<v Speaker 2>was going, so I just had to keep changing things.

233
00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:47.159
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, I really feel like if I switched

234
00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:50.919
<v Speaker 2>it to a space where I could have suites so

235
00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:54.279
<v Speaker 2>people who want to go independent can and even clients,

236
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:58.320
<v Speaker 2>not everybody can handle the background noise of a salon,

237
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:01.639
<v Speaker 2>having a space for people to be able to be

238
00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:04.639
<v Speaker 2>independent and alone, and then having a space for people

239
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:07.399
<v Speaker 2>that enjoy being a part of the mix. And that's

240
00:12:07.440 --> 00:12:10.399
<v Speaker 2>where I came up with charisma here and associate suites.

241
00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:14.639
<v Speaker 1>That's insane. Yeah, it's beautiful. What you've done in there

242
00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:19.240
<v Speaker 1>is night and day. Thank you. It is so like

243
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't really know you that well as we're having

244
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.440
<v Speaker 1>this conversation, but I've been rooting for you. Like to

245
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:32.440
<v Speaker 1>see I hate crying, like I like from my own experiences,

246
00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:35.360
<v Speaker 1>it's for lack of a better words, fucking hard to

247
00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:38.360
<v Speaker 1>own a business. It's really hard to own a business.

248
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:41.960
<v Speaker 1>There's not I'm gonna mark this with explicit there's not

249
00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:46.480
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people who understand when we make decisions

250
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:49.919
<v Speaker 1>where it's coming from until they see the fruit of

251
00:12:49.960 --> 00:12:52.799
<v Speaker 1>thy labor, like yeah afterwards. Right, And it's so hard

252
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:55.440
<v Speaker 1>when you are the I call it like like it's

253
00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:57.559
<v Speaker 1>almost like a pyramid without being like an MLM by

254
00:12:57.559 --> 00:13:00.559
<v Speaker 1>any means, but like it's like the bottle, Like we

255
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:03.000
<v Speaker 1>are the bottleneck of our own business. Yeah, so we

256
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:05.279
<v Speaker 1>see everything that goes through it. We're the filter for

257
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:08.480
<v Speaker 1>our team. Yeah, we're also need to make sure that

258
00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:10.480
<v Speaker 1>we are taking care of our own health and our

259
00:13:10.519 --> 00:13:13.399
<v Speaker 1>own families and our own dogs and stuff like that. Right,

260
00:13:13.399 --> 00:13:20.559
<v Speaker 1>but like we are the strainer for all stuff. Like

261
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:22.600
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the day, it's up to the

262
00:13:22.600 --> 00:13:25.639
<v Speaker 1>business owner that everyone is getting paid, the clients are

263
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:29.840
<v Speaker 1>going to be happy. Yeah, we're still like you do

264
00:13:29.919 --> 00:13:32.720
<v Speaker 1>a lot of extra learning and teaching as well. It's

265
00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.080
<v Speaker 1>making sure that your skills are still sharp, not from

266
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:38.679
<v Speaker 1>ten years ago, but you're always continuously learning and of

267
00:13:38.679 --> 00:13:41.559
<v Speaker 1>course saying like fitness or some things that have entered

268
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:44.120
<v Speaker 1>the chat ten years ago that are still incredibly valid

269
00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:47.759
<v Speaker 1>to this day. And there's also new things that we're learning.

270
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:51.159
<v Speaker 1>So like it's pivoting. It's making sure your team is

271
00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:53.919
<v Speaker 1>taking care of, making sure that they're happy, making sure

272
00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:57.080
<v Speaker 1>that your clientele is happy. Yeah, making sure your Google

273
00:13:57.120 --> 00:14:03.440
<v Speaker 1>friggin reviews don't go haywire. Oh it's I cannot like,

274
00:14:03.639 --> 00:14:06.200
<v Speaker 1>there's so much that a business owner takes on, but

275
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:08.679
<v Speaker 1>to see how much as an outsider looking in, to

276
00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:10.960
<v Speaker 1>see how much that you have done, and I already

277
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:12.279
<v Speaker 1>knew that you were a good person. I'm like, I

278
00:14:12.279 --> 00:14:15.120
<v Speaker 1>don't even need to verify that because if you have

279
00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:17.919
<v Speaker 1>a team and you empower women, I already know that

280
00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:22.399
<v Speaker 1>that's good because that's heaviest shit. Thanks, you're well phone.

281
00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:26.519
<v Speaker 1>It's a lot, It's a lot. It's a lot. Yeah,

282
00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:28.919
<v Speaker 1>What is one thing that you do for yourself as

283
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:31.279
<v Speaker 1>someone who like you know how it feels to have

284
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:33.480
<v Speaker 1>your hair done and like you look so grey right now,

285
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:35.960
<v Speaker 1>you have your makeup done, Like you're wearing like matching clothes.

286
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:39.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm wearing my same typical black Lulu Lemon outfit. But

287
00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:41.879
<v Speaker 1>like that makes me feel good. But what makes you

288
00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:46.759
<v Speaker 1>feel good as someone who empowers other people. I get

289
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:48.879
<v Speaker 1>my nails done, that's my one thing.

290
00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:51.919
<v Speaker 2>It's because I oh, yeah, I usually have to put

291
00:14:51.960 --> 00:14:55.919
<v Speaker 2>my phone down and put it aside. I can't touch

292
00:14:55.960 --> 00:14:58.440
<v Speaker 2>it when I'm getting my nails done, So I fully

293
00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:01.480
<v Speaker 2>can disconnect from the business swell and getting my nails done.

294
00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:07.679
<v Speaker 1>That is smart. So usually if I book something a book,

295
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:09.279
<v Speaker 1>a petit here, so I could still have my phone

296
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:12.879
<v Speaker 1>in my hand Yep, you just cracked a cheat code.

297
00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:17.240
<v Speaker 2>I need to fully disconnect from your business for an

298
00:15:17.320 --> 00:15:21.039
<v Speaker 2>hour or two once every few weeks, like you just

299
00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:22.720
<v Speaker 2>have to or you won't survive.

300
00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, even on the holiday.

301
00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:30.519
<v Speaker 2>Weekends, everybody else is out having fun disconnected. We're returning emails,

302
00:15:30.639 --> 00:15:35.519
<v Speaker 2>We're returning messages, We're returning everything. Now with most hairstylists,

303
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:38.039
<v Speaker 2>they do have their own personal page where they will

304
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:42.120
<v Speaker 2>return some messages. But I'm returning everyone in the salons, yes,

305
00:15:42.240 --> 00:15:45.000
<v Speaker 2>not just my own. Then on top of it, my

306
00:15:45.039 --> 00:15:48.799
<v Speaker 2>own personal yeah. Yeah, the same thing.

307
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:51.559
<v Speaker 1>Actually, every holiday I run a special class or a

308
00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:54.679
<v Speaker 1>pop up here as well. So yesterday, so I did

309
00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:57.240
<v Speaker 1>work over the long weekend. Every day. I also with

310
00:15:57.240 --> 00:15:59.440

<v Speaker 1>and talking to people and like all the administration. Literally.

313
00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:05.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

314
00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:07.960
<v Speaker 1>So I'm like, Okay, September, we have like six or

315
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:11.120
<v Speaker 1>seven specialty pop ups going down and we're planning like

316
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:14.240
<v Speaker 1>workshops and things like that. But I still have to

317
00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.960
<v Speaker 1>have the time to do those things. Yeah. So, Like yesterday,

318
00:16:18.320 --> 00:16:20.759
<v Speaker 1>one of our coaches, my name is Annie, she's fabulous.

319
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>I asked herhim, like, Hey, Tuesday, do you mind just

320
00:16:24.240 --> 00:16:26.720
<v Speaker 1>covering my morning classes? I have so many things to

321
00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:30.679
<v Speaker 1>do on Tuesday that I just I need just a break.

322
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:32.720
<v Speaker 1>And I said to some of the members today, I'm like,

323
00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:35.799
<v Speaker 1>you know what, having someone else coach for one morning

324
00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:38.200
<v Speaker 1>or two mornings out of the week is so good

325
00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:40.320
<v Speaker 1>for everybody. It's good for you to get used to

326
00:16:40.320 --> 00:16:42.919
<v Speaker 1>other coaching styles. It's good for me as much as

327
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:44.600
<v Speaker 1>I love seeing them all the time. And I'm like,

328
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:46.399
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I could see you guys every single day,

329
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:49.279
<v Speaker 1>but by nine I am I've spoken to at least

330
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:52.240
<v Speaker 1>fifty people. Yeah, so it's nice to have one morning

331
00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:54.279
<v Speaker 1>where I can actually put all my focus to run

332
00:16:54.759 --> 00:16:57.840
<v Speaker 1>running the business smoothly because people still need to get

333
00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:00.679
<v Speaker 1>paid emails still need to get connected to. Yes, and

334
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:02.519
<v Speaker 1>there might be someone in front of me that day

335
00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:03.720
<v Speaker 1>and they're like, did you get my email? I'm like,

336
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:06.039
<v Speaker 1>when did you send it last night? Okay, I'm still here,

337
00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:07.720
<v Speaker 1>like I have. I woke up at four o'clock in

338
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:09.960
<v Speaker 1>the morning and I work straight away. Yeah, So I'm like,

339
00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:11.839
<v Speaker 1>I will get back to your email. I promise you

340
00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:14.720
<v Speaker 1>in the next twenty four hours. Do not worry. And

341
00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:16.519
<v Speaker 1>they're like, oh, okay, thank you, no worse, just making

342
00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:18.559
<v Speaker 1>sure you got it. So like, there's so many things

343
00:17:18.599 --> 00:17:21.680
<v Speaker 1>like I feel bad stepping away because I do enjoy

344
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:24.799
<v Speaker 1>it so much that I feel guilty if I don't

345
00:17:24.799 --> 00:17:27.839
<v Speaker 1>take time or if I do take time away from

346
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:29.559
<v Speaker 1>the business. Does that make sense?

347
00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:31.599
<v Speaker 2>I think I used to feel like that, and then

348
00:17:31.680 --> 00:17:34.359
<v Speaker 2>having children and having to put those types of boundaries

349
00:17:34.359 --> 00:17:37.720
<v Speaker 2>in where like, if you don't take those few minutes

350
00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:39.359
<v Speaker 2>for yourself, you're not going to be as good a

351
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:42.000
<v Speaker 2>mom to them, because you're gonna be overstimulated, touched out,

352
00:17:42.039 --> 00:17:45.359
<v Speaker 2>tapped out, done, and then you're not the nicest mom you.

353
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Can be either.

354
00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:50.720
<v Speaker 2>So I think I learning that having that part of

355
00:17:50.759 --> 00:17:54.319
<v Speaker 2>being a mom made me realize, Okay, if I want

356
00:17:54.319 --> 00:17:56.319
<v Speaker 2>to be the best business owner I can be, then

357
00:17:56.319 --> 00:17:58.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to need to do that for myself with

358
00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:01.079
<v Speaker 2>the business as well. Now that's not saying I always

359
00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:03.279
<v Speaker 2>do it, but like when I'm really starting to feel

360
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:07.480
<v Speaker 2>the burnout, then I remember and realize also health issues.

361
00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:11.119
<v Speaker 2>I now have an autoimmune disease. I actually cannot stress

362
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:13.279
<v Speaker 2>my body out because if I stress my body out,

363
00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:15.799
<v Speaker 2>I'll send it into a flare up. And mine is

364
00:18:15.839 --> 00:18:18.200
<v Speaker 2>a physical one that will take me from behind the chair.

365
00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:21.119
<v Speaker 2>And I never want to leave behind the chair. I

366
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:25.519
<v Speaker 2>always want to be part time anything behind the chair,

367
00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:27.440
<v Speaker 2>doing clients, having.

368
00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:29.640
<v Speaker 1>That connection with human is important to me.

369
00:18:30.279 --> 00:18:35.039
<v Speaker 2>So I just have to know because I've worked myself

370
00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:40.880
<v Speaker 2>into an auto seat space rights from business stress. Business

371
00:18:40.920 --> 00:18:43.960
<v Speaker 2>stress is a lot of my stress. And then balancing

372
00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:46.519
<v Speaker 2>business in life, I think, yeah.

373
00:18:46.519 --> 00:18:48.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I've been in business over twenty years now. I

374
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:51.880
<v Speaker 1>started my first business when I was seventeen. Yeah, well

375
00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:56.079
<v Speaker 1>that's something I'm recently seeing because like I'm so used

376
00:18:56.119 --> 00:18:57.880
<v Speaker 1>to being a one man show. When I started my

377
00:18:57.920 --> 00:18:59.680
<v Speaker 1>first business, I was a one man show. When I

378
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:04.640
<v Speaker 1>started with fitness, my first location was at Tiffin and

379
00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:08.319
<v Speaker 1>in a Spield Street and I was like it was

380
00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:10.640
<v Speaker 1>like twenty twelve or twenty thirteen when I first opened

381
00:19:10.640 --> 00:19:13.319
<v Speaker 1>my first commercial location. So this is my fourth move technically,

382
00:19:13.319 --> 00:19:17.279
<v Speaker 1>and each time I've grown since then. But it was

383
00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:23.119
<v Speaker 1>until the Transformation station was maybe two years old that

384
00:19:23.119 --> 00:19:26.359
<v Speaker 1>that's when I wasn't coaching like a lot of the classes.

385
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:28.240
<v Speaker 1>We didn't have as many classes then as we do now.

386
00:19:29.319 --> 00:19:33.079
<v Speaker 1>And then when we moved, I actually ended up clearing

387
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:36.400
<v Speaker 1>out house and there was just a lot of caddy

388
00:19:36.440 --> 00:19:39.039
<v Speaker 1>things going on behind the scenes, and I'm like, I've

389
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:41.160
<v Speaker 1>had enough of this. And when I don't feel comfortable

390
00:19:41.200 --> 00:19:44.880
<v Speaker 1>stepping into my own gym, there's a huge problem. And

391
00:19:44.920 --> 00:19:49.240
<v Speaker 1>that was me not implementing boundaries and not being confident

392
00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:52.119
<v Speaker 1>in who I was with over twenty years of business

393
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:55.319
<v Speaker 1>amen under my belt, yeah, and like like no, no,

394
00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:56.880
<v Speaker 1>you don't run over me and tell me what to

395
00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:58.799
<v Speaker 1>do in the business because I'm looking at data. I'm

396
00:19:58.839 --> 00:20:00.680
<v Speaker 1>looking at what's good for everybody. I always say data

397
00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:03.680
<v Speaker 1>is like that's that's everyone's vote is the data? Is

398
00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:06.599
<v Speaker 1>the data? Oh yeah, So when I rebranded and I

399
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:08.599
<v Speaker 1>made the switch, and when I made the switch, it

400
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:10.640
<v Speaker 1>was Okay, I'm not going to franchise I'm not going

401
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:14.519
<v Speaker 1>to have children. I'm going to take on this extra

402
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:17.359
<v Speaker 1>load because actually my lease was almost done because that

403
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:19.279
<v Speaker 1>was just at the end of my five year lease. Yeah,

404
00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:20.880
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, Okay, do I close up shop?

405
00:20:20.920 --> 00:20:22.359
<v Speaker 1>Do I need this? Do I not need this? Do

406
00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:24.720
<v Speaker 1>I want to do this? Yeah? So I spoke with

407
00:20:24.759 --> 00:20:26.519
<v Speaker 1>my partner and I'm like, you know what, I want

408
00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:28.960
<v Speaker 1>this and she was like, well, either way, I'm going

409
00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:30.480
<v Speaker 1>to support you. So if you want to stay home,

410
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:31.519
<v Speaker 1>you stay home. If you don't want to stay home,

411
00:20:31.559 --> 00:20:33.119
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to stay home. I'm like whatever. I'm like,

412
00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:34.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what, let's just go because I'm going to

413
00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:37.319
<v Speaker 1>be bored as hell sitting at home doing nothing. Like

414
00:20:37.400 --> 00:20:39.799
<v Speaker 1>let's expand, let's go to the business. Resign a lease

415
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:42.839
<v Speaker 1>jumped right in and then I was like I'm the

416
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:46.559
<v Speaker 1>only person. And then I was coaching all the classes morning,

417
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:49.680
<v Speaker 1>we did some afternoon for hot second all in the evening.

418
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:51.359
<v Speaker 1>I was teaching zoom by how many times a week

419
00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:54.200
<v Speaker 1>physically on my body ended up tearing my achilles tend

420
00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:56.799
<v Speaker 1>in about four years ago, and then I ended up

421
00:20:56.920 --> 00:20:58.599
<v Speaker 1>having to teach with a pneumonia. I ended up with

422
00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:02.279
<v Speaker 1>an ammonia twice in one month. And I had members that

423
00:21:02.319 --> 00:21:05.039
<v Speaker 1>were here for a long time that are certified personal trainers,

424
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:09.640
<v Speaker 1>that our group fitness instructors, and they're like, you need help, yeah,

425
00:21:09.680 --> 00:21:14.000
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, but after I've been here, but oh heck, yes,

426
00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:16.599
<v Speaker 1>Like I don't ever really get sick, which I'm thankful,

427
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:20.319
<v Speaker 1>knock on wood. But I was getting chronically sick because

428
00:21:20.319 --> 00:21:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I had so much on my plate. Yeah, and then

429
00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:25.839
<v Speaker 1>they pretty much i'm gonna say, they bullied me kindly

430
00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:30.079
<v Speaker 1>into having other coaches, so they stepped up. I was like,

431
00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:33.440
<v Speaker 1>thank you so much, and now here like I'm I

432
00:21:33.480 --> 00:21:35.400
<v Speaker 1>hear sometimes when they're like, oh, Christina, like we don't

433
00:21:35.400 --> 00:21:38.200
<v Speaker 1>see you as often, and I'm like, I have so

434
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:40.799
<v Speaker 1>many If you still see me three four times a

435
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:42.440
<v Speaker 1>week in the morning, you still see me three four

436
00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:44.160
<v Speaker 1>times a week in the afternoon, and you see me

437
00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:47.039
<v Speaker 1>on the weekends. I can't be present for every single

438
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:51.519
<v Speaker 1>person all the time because that's not sustainable. So if

439
00:21:51.519 --> 00:21:54.640
<v Speaker 1>I want to be here in business, and I'm sure

440
00:21:54.640 --> 00:21:56.240
<v Speaker 1>you can relate to this as well, because what you

441
00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:58.400
<v Speaker 1>just said, Yeah, if we want to be present for

442
00:21:58.559 --> 00:22:01.039
<v Speaker 1>our business and our clientele that we know and love,

443
00:22:01.079 --> 00:22:04.640
<v Speaker 1>and they know and love us is we have to

444
00:22:04.680 --> 00:22:07.279
<v Speaker 1>not be everything to everybody all the time. That way

445
00:22:07.319 --> 00:22:10.240
<v Speaker 1>we can sustain this for the next five years, ten years,

446
00:22:10.279 --> 00:22:12.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty years, thirty, forty fifty years, Like you know what

447
00:22:12.519 --> 00:22:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Like there's so many businesses that fold, Yeah,

448
00:22:16.240 --> 00:22:19.599
<v Speaker 1>because they can't take it the pressure anymore, exactly. Yeah.

449
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:23.160
<v Speaker 2>The whole point is we are the face of our business,

450
00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:27.519
<v Speaker 2>and I think people get attached to that. However, when

451
00:22:27.559 --> 00:22:30.880
<v Speaker 2>we build a team, we are strategically looking for like

452
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:36.400
<v Speaker 2>minded individuals that will care for our clients and customers

453
00:22:36.400 --> 00:22:39.480
<v Speaker 2>the same way that we would care for them. So

454
00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:41.880
<v Speaker 2>knowing that they're going to be in the same cared

455
00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:43.400
<v Speaker 2>for hands.

456
00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:47.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know, we trust them and they're good exactly.

457
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:50.160
<v Speaker 1>And sometimes it's just a matter of personality.

458
00:22:50.200 --> 00:22:52.400
<v Speaker 2>You might not gel with this instructor, but you're going

459
00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:56.400
<v Speaker 2>to love this instructor just because energy levels and things

460
00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:59.279
<v Speaker 2>like that, they need to match as well, right totally.

461
00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know, Like at for six am energy, Like

462
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:06.599
<v Speaker 1>we have other coaches that match the same sixam energy,

463
00:23:06.720 --> 00:23:08.279
<v Speaker 1>but for a hot second, I was the only person

464
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:10.279
<v Speaker 1>that could bring the six sam energy because that's just

465
00:23:10.519 --> 00:23:13.400
<v Speaker 1>my personality all the time. Yeah, and then there's sometimes

466
00:23:13.400 --> 00:23:16.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm on wow, like as soon as I wake up, yep,

467
00:23:16.400 --> 00:23:19.160
<v Speaker 1>how does that song go? As soon as I wake up?

468
00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:29.880
<v Speaker 1>Make hands break? But like that's just how I am

469
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:33.960
<v Speaker 1>as a person that isn't always reciprocated. Let's say someone's

470
00:23:33.960 --> 00:23:37.240
<v Speaker 1>coming in for a six forty five PM stretch and flow. Yeah,

471
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:39.519
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna be like what is this and they're not

472
00:23:39.559 --> 00:23:41.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna love it. Whereas if I have someone who has

473
00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:43.960
<v Speaker 1>more of that energy to lead a stretching flow in

474
00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:45.200
<v Speaker 1>the middle of the night, that to me, in the

475
00:23:45.240 --> 00:23:46.480
<v Speaker 1>middle of the night, Beau, I wake up so early

476
00:23:46.759 --> 00:23:48.880
<v Speaker 1>at six forty five at night, that's gonna be a

477
00:23:48.960 --> 00:23:52.119
<v Speaker 1>much better fit. So they might not see me, but

478
00:23:52.160 --> 00:23:54.680
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna be seeing someone. I always say, like, in

479
00:23:54.720 --> 00:23:56.759
<v Speaker 1>the last month, I've used this analogy so much as

480
00:23:57.079 --> 00:24:00.279
<v Speaker 1>we're like a pizza place, doesn't matter what time day

481
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:03.599
<v Speaker 1>you come to. All of our crew. I don't love

482
00:24:03.640 --> 00:24:05.920
<v Speaker 1>saying staff. I just don't love saying staff. Yeah, but

483
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.640
<v Speaker 1>like our whole team or whole crew or squad, whatever

484
00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:10.279
<v Speaker 1>you want to call it, we're all making the same

485
00:24:10.359 --> 00:24:13.319
<v Speaker 1>pizza recipe. Yeah, we're all under the same umbrella. We

486
00:24:13.359 --> 00:24:17.200
<v Speaker 1>have the same recipe. That's a great analogy. We're under

487
00:24:17.200 --> 00:24:19.319
<v Speaker 1>the umbrella of kindness. We're all going to be kind

488
00:24:19.880 --> 00:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>and if, by chance, this is hard. Sometimes, if by

489
00:24:24.039 --> 00:24:28.119
<v Speaker 1>chance one of the teammates are not making the same

490
00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:31.839
<v Speaker 1>recipe as us, that's when the visions don't line up.

491
00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:34.880
<v Speaker 1>And that's when we have to put our personal feelings

492
00:24:34.920 --> 00:24:37.519
<v Speaker 1>aside and put the business hat on and take care

493
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:41.720
<v Speaker 1>of business. And there's some times when we make decisions

494
00:24:41.799 --> 00:24:45.599
<v Speaker 1>that it's going to be judged. So that's that's kind

495
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:48.000
<v Speaker 1>of the phase the season that I've been in recently.

496
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:50.680
<v Speaker 1>What about you? What kind of season? How like business

497
00:24:50.680 --> 00:24:53.119
<v Speaker 1>goes up and down of all different feelings and seasons

498
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:53.720
<v Speaker 1>and learning.

499
00:24:53.839 --> 00:24:57.599
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I've definitely been judged. I have been put

500
00:24:57.680 --> 00:25:01.039
<v Speaker 2>under a microscope. And I don't like people thinking I'm

501
00:25:01.079 --> 00:25:04.519
<v Speaker 2>mean or like not a nice person. It makes me

502
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:07.960
<v Speaker 2>feel really bad about myself if someone talks bad about

503
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:09.920
<v Speaker 2>me like it puts me right down in a hole.

504
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:14.759
<v Speaker 2>So I had to get used to being or understanding

505
00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:17.039
<v Speaker 2>the fact that if I want to take control and

506
00:25:17.119 --> 00:25:19.720
<v Speaker 2>I want to give the girls a great work environment

507
00:25:19.799 --> 00:25:22.960
<v Speaker 2>and I want our guests to have a great experience,

508
00:25:23.039 --> 00:25:24.440
<v Speaker 2>that I'm going to have.

509
00:25:24.359 --> 00:25:25.599
<v Speaker 1>To be the mean guy.

510
00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:29.599
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes, as much as I'm not a mean guy, I

511
00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:31.960
<v Speaker 2>just have to put the boundaries in place, and I

512
00:25:32.160 --> 00:25:36.559
<v Speaker 2>have to be able to withstand and hold those boundaries. Yes,

513
00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:40.720
<v Speaker 2>because if you don't, then it affects everybody. I used

514
00:25:40.759 --> 00:25:44.240
<v Speaker 2>to think that if they spoke about me, but everybody

515
00:25:44.279 --> 00:25:47.839
<v Speaker 2>else was okay, it was fine. That's also not true

516
00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:50.480
<v Speaker 2>because if they're speaking about you, they're speaking about others,

517
00:25:50.839 --> 00:25:54.599
<v Speaker 2>and then it's just making everyone question and it's just

518
00:25:54.920 --> 00:25:57.519
<v Speaker 2>a recipe for disaster. The pizza is gonna come out

519
00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:01.799
<v Speaker 2>mushy snap, that'd be good. Yeah, especially when that's your team. Yes.

520
00:26:01.960 --> 00:26:05.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I had someone here that was literally like and

521
00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:07.839
<v Speaker 1>this is very transparent because if you go on Google

522
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:10.119
<v Speaker 1>you can see the reviews like from the old staff

523
00:26:10.160 --> 00:26:14.200
<v Speaker 1>member and their whole entire family and their cousins or whoever. Yeah,

524
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:17.640
<v Speaker 1>it was really that's just great, right, Yeah, Like I've

525
00:26:17.680 --> 00:26:20.640
<v Speaker 1>worked my whole ass, like we're work my whole ass

526
00:26:20.680 --> 00:26:25.559
<v Speaker 1>off for this, but like it was hard because like

527
00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:29.200
<v Speaker 1>it I like I remember just I had to go

528
00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:31.599
<v Speaker 1>to like a vision board making event like the next day,

529
00:26:31.599 --> 00:26:33.759
<v Speaker 1>and it was like like it was like ding ding

530
00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:35.559
<v Speaker 1>ding and I was driving and it comes up on

531
00:26:35.599 --> 00:26:37.920
<v Speaker 1>like my Apple play to be like Google review Google Google.

532
00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:39.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, what is happening in this place? And I

533
00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:42.200
<v Speaker 1>pull over. I was literally vibrating because I'm like, I

534
00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:46.960
<v Speaker 1>put my whole life into making sure to die. Irrespond, Yeah,

535
00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:50.319
<v Speaker 1>like I've never shook like that. Yeah, being so stressed.

536
00:26:50.359 --> 00:26:52.880
<v Speaker 1>I was crying. I like I was puke, Like it

537
00:26:52.920 --> 00:26:57.279
<v Speaker 1>was so horrible, and I like, I pride myself where

538
00:26:57.279 --> 00:26:59.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, no, no, no, I'm not like there's no

539
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:03.240
<v Speaker 1>way that anything's going to take me down. But because

540
00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:05.599
<v Speaker 1>that was a business decision, not a personal decision, and

541
00:27:05.640 --> 00:27:08.119
<v Speaker 1>I actually had liked that person on a personal level,

542
00:27:08.920 --> 00:27:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it started to diminish and I didn't realize that this

543
00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:18.039
<v Speaker 1>person was drilling holes in our own boat. So like

544
00:27:18.039 --> 00:27:20.039
<v Speaker 1>like I was hearing things and people were sending me

545
00:27:20.079 --> 00:27:22.559
<v Speaker 1>emails and like what is happening? So I put like

546
00:27:22.599 --> 00:27:25.160
<v Speaker 1>a generic we have like a staff app, a group chat,

547
00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:27.920
<v Speaker 1>put like a generic thing. I'm like, what is happening?

548
00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:30.839
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm hearing these things. This is not true. I'm

549
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:33.079
<v Speaker 1>not too sure where it's coming from. But if members

550
00:27:33.119 --> 00:27:36.279
<v Speaker 1>have an issue, please direct them to my email. Also,

551
00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:38.640
<v Speaker 1>all of our all of our coaches, all of our staff,

552
00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:42.839
<v Speaker 1>everyone that's here under our business. I'm just certified. Everyone

553
00:27:42.920 --> 00:27:46.079
<v Speaker 1>is like they have more than what they need to

554
00:27:47.079 --> 00:27:50.519
<v Speaker 1>work here. Yeah. So when when something starts to put

555
00:27:50.559 --> 00:27:52.519
<v Speaker 1>down you want to you want to call me a bitch. Hey,

556
00:27:52.599 --> 00:27:55.480
<v Speaker 1>I've been divorced twice. I hear I hear my own rumors,

557
00:27:55.480 --> 00:27:57.119
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, okay, some of those are true. Some

558
00:27:57.160 --> 00:28:01.920
<v Speaker 1>of them very very nar are learning literally, so it's like, okay,

559
00:28:01.960 --> 00:28:03.559
<v Speaker 1>take what you heard and add to it. I'm at

560
00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:05.839
<v Speaker 1>the stage round and give a shit. But then when

561
00:28:05.920 --> 00:28:11.240
<v Speaker 1>someone trashes my business, when I'm like, you had an

562
00:28:11.359 --> 00:28:15.680
<v Speaker 1>issue with the operations, it wasn't the vision was no

563
00:28:15.799 --> 00:28:20.000
<v Speaker 1>longer like vision exactly. Yeah, like it when like, there's

564
00:28:20.039 --> 00:28:22.680
<v Speaker 1>certain things I don't stand for in here. One of

565
00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:26.680
<v Speaker 1>them is racism. Yeah. One of them is like competition, Like,

566
00:28:26.720 --> 00:28:30.240
<v Speaker 1>if you want to be competitive against yourself, that's all great.

567
00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:32.039
<v Speaker 1>If you want to see like, hey, how how long

568
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:35.359
<v Speaker 1>can I hold a plank? Like, that's normal competition with yourself.

569
00:28:36.240 --> 00:28:39.279
<v Speaker 1>If you are putting people down around you, that is

570
00:28:39.440 --> 00:28:43.079
<v Speaker 1>such a hard boundary for me, especially if someone has

571
00:28:43.599 --> 00:28:47.720
<v Speaker 1>been trusted in a leadership position. Yeah. So racial slurs,

572
00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:53.000
<v Speaker 1>homophobia obviously, like all of those things are no bueno.

573
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:57.480
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, So long story short, like, sometimes we have

574
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to do hard things and that's where I think some

575
00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:03.319
<v Speaker 1>of that slander comes into play. Like when I walked

576
00:29:03.319 --> 00:29:05.599
<v Speaker 1>away from my last marriage, all of a sudden people

577
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:07.440
<v Speaker 1>were and it was only after eight months. All of

578
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:09.279
<v Speaker 1>a sudden people were telling you that I was wrong.

579
00:29:09.359 --> 00:29:11.279
<v Speaker 1>But I'm like, am I not in charge of my

580
00:29:11.359 --> 00:29:13.240
<v Speaker 1>own happiness? I'm not in charge of my own life.

581
00:29:13.519 --> 00:29:15.359
<v Speaker 1>It's like, how is that wrong? It's not wrong if

582
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:19.240
<v Speaker 1>it's right for you exactly. Yeah. So it's interesting, like

583
00:29:20.039 --> 00:29:22.559
<v Speaker 1>having all those hats to wear because all of a sudden,

584
00:29:22.559 --> 00:29:25.200
<v Speaker 1>when you own a business, it's like your life is

585
00:29:25.359 --> 00:29:28.799
<v Speaker 1>a spectacle. Yeah, you're put under a microscope.

586
00:29:29.079 --> 00:29:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, as long as you know that your intentions

587
00:29:32.079 --> 00:29:35.720
<v Speaker 2>were always to bring happiness to people and be kind

588
00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:38.400
<v Speaker 2>and leave the world a better place than you found it.

589
00:29:39.200 --> 00:29:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Then that's all that matters. You know who you are

590
00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:45.920
<v Speaker 1>and you know what your intentions are. Yeah, what's your

591
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:47.920
<v Speaker 1>favorite thing about owning your business?

592
00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:54.119
<v Speaker 2>I literally get to go to work, paint and chat

593
00:29:54.240 --> 00:29:55.200
<v Speaker 2>with women all day long.

594
00:29:57.519 --> 00:29:58.680
<v Speaker 1>Like that is the best thing.

595
00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:01.720
<v Speaker 2>Like some of my my clients have been when I

596
00:30:01.880 --> 00:30:06.599
<v Speaker 2>became a mentor and brought in apprentices and learned that

597
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:09.359
<v Speaker 2>I was teaching them and saying, this is an OG,

598
00:30:09.839 --> 00:30:12.759
<v Speaker 2>this is an OG. How many clients have mine have

599
00:30:12.920 --> 00:30:16.960
<v Speaker 2>been with me for twenty years? I'm like, wow, oh yeah,

600
00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:19.359
<v Speaker 2>because a ten years prior to yeah, I was a

601
00:30:19.519 --> 00:30:23.799
<v Speaker 2>hairstylist before a business owner and hairstylist, right, So like

602
00:30:24.039 --> 00:30:28.599
<v Speaker 2>I have twenty year long lifetime relationships with people. So

603
00:30:28.920 --> 00:30:32.799
<v Speaker 2>like that connection and that connection to another human is

604
00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:34.000
<v Speaker 2>like everything to me.

605
00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:37.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, and something too is trusting you as with

606
00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:40.799
<v Speaker 1>something so vulnerable as like their hair, Yeah, their whole look.

607
00:30:41.119 --> 00:30:44.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, that's such a like a like a detrimental

608
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:48.359
<v Speaker 1>piece of that puzzle. When I started with my first location,

609
00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I was like twenty one or twenty two maybe, Yeah.

610
00:30:51.440 --> 00:30:53.839
<v Speaker 1>I have people that are members here that were members

611
00:30:53.880 --> 00:30:56.920
<v Speaker 1>with me back then. Yeah. Yeah, So like it's it's

612
00:30:57.000 --> 00:31:00.559
<v Speaker 1>interesting to see like when you build those relationships, and

613
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:03.480
<v Speaker 1>that to me is one of the most wholesome things. Yeah. Yeah,

614
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:05.799
<v Speaker 1>when like when someone says like it makes you remember

615
00:31:05.839 --> 00:31:08.440
<v Speaker 1>why you started. Yes, I got an email the other

616
00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:11.640
<v Speaker 1>actually I just forward it, forwarded it. That's a wholeful

617
00:31:11.680 --> 00:31:14.759
<v Speaker 1>forwarded it to the coaches and it was a member

618
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:16.559
<v Speaker 1>who has been a member here for I'm going to

619
00:31:16.599 --> 00:31:20.079
<v Speaker 1>say about six months, and she wrote this whole email

620
00:31:20.160 --> 00:31:23.400
<v Speaker 1>that made me just cry, and it was saying like

621
00:31:23.519 --> 00:31:28.119
<v Speaker 1>how much she has changed because like walking and she

622
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:32.359
<v Speaker 1>was someone who chronically fell. Yeah, and she was she

623
00:31:32.440 --> 00:31:34.279
<v Speaker 1>actually had a fall and for the first time, it

624
00:31:34.279 --> 00:31:37.079
<v Speaker 1>didn't take her two weeks to recover and she literally

625
00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:39.680
<v Speaker 1>just picked herself up and she's like oh, she like,

626
00:31:39.799 --> 00:31:41.440
<v Speaker 1>is anything broken? Am I good? I'm good. She's like,

627
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:44.519
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, I'm good. And then she kept on

628
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:46.640
<v Speaker 1>going about her day. She went dress shopping, she did

629
00:31:46.640 --> 00:31:48.440
<v Speaker 1>whatever she needed to do. She's like, that is the

630
00:31:48.559 --> 00:31:51.079
<v Speaker 1>first time and how many years? And she's like, I

631
00:31:51.319 --> 00:31:55.559
<v Speaker 1>test that to my strength training. I was like, thank

632
00:31:55.599 --> 00:31:57.240
<v Speaker 1>you for sharing that with me. And at the time,

633
00:31:57.319 --> 00:32:00.160
<v Speaker 1>I was going through like the cubby drama, so I

634
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:01.799
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh dear. And then as soon as I

635
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:04.920
<v Speaker 1>opened that email, it brought me right back because to me,

636
00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:07.599
<v Speaker 1>coaching and being on the floor, that's the fun stuff,

637
00:32:08.119 --> 00:32:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Like you're interactive, Like I love obviously talking, so like

638
00:32:12.559 --> 00:32:15.359
<v Speaker 1>when I see other people that are around me, I'm like, oh,

639
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:17.079
<v Speaker 1>you got no new shoes. Oh that's awesome. What did

640
00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:18.440
<v Speaker 1>you do for the weekend? Who did you see? Oh?

641
00:32:18.480 --> 00:32:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I remember this person that's your friend from like when

642
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:22.039
<v Speaker 1>you were like eighteen years old. Oh yeah, So like

643
00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:25.200
<v Speaker 1>that part, the coaching and being available for people and

644
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:29.119
<v Speaker 1>building relationships, that to me is like my favorite favorite

645
00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:29.680
<v Speaker 1>favorite thing.

646
00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

647
00:32:30.279 --> 00:32:32.039
<v Speaker 1>And then when I got to put like my boss

648
00:32:32.079 --> 00:32:35.920
<v Speaker 1>hat on, which I can't stand. I love it, don't

649
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:37.480
<v Speaker 1>get me wrong, but I don't love calling it the

650
00:32:37.519 --> 00:32:40.359
<v Speaker 1>boss hat. When I have to make those hard decisions,

651
00:32:40.960 --> 00:32:43.920
<v Speaker 1>that's the part where I'm like, oh, don't love that

652
00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:47.759
<v Speaker 1>all the time. No, But then I remember like stories

653
00:32:47.839 --> 00:32:51.359
<v Speaker 1>like that, It's like, oh, this is why I do this,

654
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:55.079
<v Speaker 1>because this person just changed their entire life because of

655
00:32:55.279 --> 00:32:58.839
<v Speaker 1>something small that I build. And not just one person.

656
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:01.160
<v Speaker 1>Now there's one hundreds of people that are walking through

657
00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:04.960
<v Speaker 1>the doors every day. Are becoming better versions of themselves,

658
00:33:05.599 --> 00:33:11.480
<v Speaker 1>or they're tolerating less, they're becoming empowered and taking control

659
00:33:11.519 --> 00:33:15.240
<v Speaker 1>of their own minds. Yes, yeah, So I find just

660
00:33:15.359 --> 00:33:17.200
<v Speaker 1>saying that with it. I know that when I've had

661
00:33:17.240 --> 00:33:18.960
<v Speaker 1>my hair done, which is not too often, to be fair,

662
00:33:19.519 --> 00:33:21.799
<v Speaker 1>we have a member here and she's been doing my

663
00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:25.359
<v Speaker 1>hair for a while and she's starting to like step back,

664
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:29.680
<v Speaker 1>and that's not a secret. So I remember the handful

665
00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:32.559
<v Speaker 1>of times that I'm leaving and I'm like, oh, I

666
00:33:32.640 --> 00:33:34.839
<v Speaker 1>gotta go see everybody. Where's all the errands I've been

667
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:37.160
<v Speaker 1>avoiding for the last month. I'm like, I feel good.

668
00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:39.920
<v Speaker 1>But I think like when people feel good, they do good.

669
00:33:40.119 --> 00:33:42.240
<v Speaker 1>They do good. When you feel good about yourself, you

670
00:33:42.359 --> 00:33:42.759
<v Speaker 1>do good.

671
00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:46.640
<v Speaker 2>And that's why with me, it's so important for people

672
00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:49.960
<v Speaker 2>to realize that it's their hair is never the problem.

673
00:33:50.079 --> 00:33:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Their hair is never the problem half the time.

674
00:33:51.680 --> 00:33:55.200
<v Speaker 2>It's the products we're marketed and the way that hair

675
00:33:55.240 --> 00:33:58.440
<v Speaker 2>stylists are actually educated as well. Hair silists are educated

676
00:33:58.480 --> 00:34:01.480
<v Speaker 2>to brands, they're not educated to hair, which I think

677
00:34:01.599 --> 00:34:04.079
<v Speaker 2>is starting to change. I do believe there is a shift.

678
00:34:04.119 --> 00:34:07.000
<v Speaker 2>They're starting to teach curly hair and everything we need

679
00:34:07.119 --> 00:34:11.679
<v Speaker 2>to learn. Even curly cutting is very well marketed. Curly

680
00:34:11.760 --> 00:34:15.559
<v Speaker 2>cutting is very well marketed, like all the different curly

681
00:34:15.679 --> 00:34:19.559
<v Speaker 2>methods and things like that. Hair is a fabric. You're

682
00:34:19.599 --> 00:34:23.440
<v Speaker 2>either working with coarse hair, medium hair or fine hair.

683
00:34:23.599 --> 00:34:28.280
<v Speaker 2>You're working with dense hair, medium density or thin. You're

684
00:34:28.320 --> 00:34:32.119
<v Speaker 2>working with a wave, a coil, a tight coil, or

685
00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:36.119
<v Speaker 2>straight that's what you're working with. It's a fabric, and

686
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:39.400
<v Speaker 2>understanding the fabric that you're working with is the most

687
00:34:39.440 --> 00:34:43.079
<v Speaker 2>important thing. Wow, I can see as soon as you're

688
00:34:43.079 --> 00:34:45.280
<v Speaker 2>talking about that. I think a fabric land so I

689
00:34:45.320 --> 00:34:46.519
<v Speaker 2>can think of like a seamstress.

690
00:34:46.559 --> 00:34:49.400
<v Speaker 1>If she has the wrong tools for the wrong texture,

691
00:34:49.480 --> 00:34:51.280
<v Speaker 1>that things not going to stand up, or it's gonna break,

692
00:34:51.320 --> 00:34:53.480
<v Speaker 1>or it's gonna rip. It's not going to withstand the storm.

693
00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

694
00:34:54.159 --> 00:34:56.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, then that fabric's not going to feel very good

695
00:34:56.239 --> 00:34:56.920
<v Speaker 1>when it leaves.

696
00:34:57.000 --> 00:35:00.119
<v Speaker 2>Now, my clients and my stylust are always like, of

697
00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:04.199
<v Speaker 2>so many scissors, I'm like, yeah, I do oh because

698
00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:06.800
<v Speaker 2>the metal densities do different things for the hair.

699
00:35:08.079 --> 00:35:10.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, oh that's interesting.

700
00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, yeah, even the different type of texturizing shears.

701
00:35:15.480 --> 00:35:20.280
<v Speaker 2>They're straight, there's bulky, there's curved. They do different things.

702
00:35:20.760 --> 00:35:23.280
<v Speaker 2>If you try to use thinning shears that are straight

703
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:26.559
<v Speaker 2>with millions of teeth on a curly hair that needs

704
00:35:26.639 --> 00:35:29.199
<v Speaker 2>to go in opposite directions to be able to do

705
00:35:29.320 --> 00:35:34.559
<v Speaker 2>their coils, yeah, you're breaking the curl. They have debulking

706
00:35:34.679 --> 00:35:37.039
<v Speaker 2>shears because some people just have too much hair and

707
00:35:37.079 --> 00:35:38.880
<v Speaker 2>they do need a little bit of de bulk and

708
00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:41.960
<v Speaker 2>you can in certain spots. It's okay. It's the same

709
00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:44.559
<v Speaker 2>as people who do it with their shears. Some people

710
00:35:44.639 --> 00:35:46.679
<v Speaker 2>prefer to do it with a thinning shear, some people

711
00:35:47.199 --> 00:35:50.679
<v Speaker 2>prefer to do it with a cutting shear. They're actually

712
00:35:50.800 --> 00:35:53.400
<v Speaker 2>rounded at the base of it so the curl can

713
00:35:53.719 --> 00:35:56.800
<v Speaker 2>coil into it and it won't break the curl pattern.

714
00:35:57.400 --> 00:36:00.880
<v Speaker 1>That's so fascinating. Yeah, like holy yeah.

715
00:36:01.760 --> 00:36:04.400
<v Speaker 2>There's different levels of deposit with color that you can

716
00:36:04.480 --> 00:36:07.079
<v Speaker 2>do in different levels or different products that you can

717
00:36:07.159 --> 00:36:10.719
<v Speaker 2>do to get used to get those levels of deposit.

718
00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:13.000
<v Speaker 2>That's why I chose to use a color line that

719
00:36:13.119 --> 00:36:15.840
<v Speaker 2>has a three in one system, so I'm in control

720
00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:18.360
<v Speaker 2>of the level of deposit always so I know what

721
00:36:18.440 --> 00:36:19.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing to my client's hair.

722
00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:23.159
<v Speaker 1>That's a far cry from a box guy. It's very

723
00:36:23.280 --> 00:36:23.920
<v Speaker 1>far far.

724
00:36:25.599 --> 00:36:29.400
<v Speaker 2>Box dye is like going to TMU and ordering one

725
00:36:29.519 --> 00:36:31.719
<v Speaker 2>size fits all because we.

726
00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Know it doesn't. We know it doesn't. Oh wow. Yeah. Yeah.

727
00:36:39.440 --> 00:36:43.119
<v Speaker 2>So box dye also has cheaper ingredients in the colors

728
00:36:43.239 --> 00:36:46.039
<v Speaker 2>and metallics, so typically that's why it's harder on your

729
00:36:46.039 --> 00:36:49.119
<v Speaker 2>hair than professional color. However, when you're going to a

730
00:36:49.159 --> 00:36:52.719
<v Speaker 2>professional colorist who understands how the color works at a

731
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:57.800
<v Speaker 2>different level and is able to make your own formulation

732
00:36:58.039 --> 00:37:01.079
<v Speaker 2>rather than a hairstylist who is tall taught how to

733
00:37:01.239 --> 00:37:05.639
<v Speaker 2>use a color line, not taught how to color hair fabric.

734
00:37:06.519 --> 00:37:10.199
<v Speaker 1>You see the difference and you see the value being spent. Yeah, yeah,

735
00:37:10.199 --> 00:37:12.840
<v Speaker 1>I agree with that. It's a level of education that

736
00:37:13.119 --> 00:37:17.360
<v Speaker 1>is out there for hairstylists. Yeah, that's yeah. Like I'm

737
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:19.880
<v Speaker 1>a firm believer that you see professionals for professional things

738
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:20.840
<v Speaker 1>for a reason. Yeah.

739
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:23.519
<v Speaker 2>I for like a dentist, I have a healing center

740
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:26.960
<v Speaker 2>with Loonza because they give us education, and I think

741
00:37:27.119 --> 00:37:30.760
<v Speaker 2>education is important and valuable. However, I still push my

742
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:33.920
<v Speaker 2>girls to go out and source outside education because you

743
00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:38.440
<v Speaker 2>can learn something from everything. I've done Vidal, SASU and ABCS.

744
00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:42.880
<v Speaker 2>I've done Revlong cutting courses. I've done Schwartz cop coloring classes.

745
00:37:42.960 --> 00:37:46.960
<v Speaker 2>I've done Olligo coloring classes. I've done so many different

746
00:37:47.000 --> 00:37:51.800
<v Speaker 2>types of certifications and even extensions. I've purchased multiple brands

747
00:37:51.840 --> 00:37:56.119
<v Speaker 2>of extensions certifications because everybody does it a little differently,

748
00:37:56.639 --> 00:38:00.239
<v Speaker 2>and then you learn what you feel works for your clients. Right,

749
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:05.320
<v Speaker 2>So it's important to put money and invest in your education.

750
00:38:07.320 --> 00:38:09.920
<v Speaker 2>That yeah, Yeah, so that you know you're not being

751
00:38:10.039 --> 00:38:12.440
<v Speaker 2>educated to a brand, You're being educated to the hair.

752
00:38:13.280 --> 00:38:16.639
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I love that so much. Yeah yeah, same as

753
00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:19.639
<v Speaker 1>in fitness. Yeah, there's not a one size fits all.

754
00:38:19.639 --> 00:38:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Everyone's body is so unique. Yeah. Yeah, that's really interesting.

755
00:38:23.639 --> 00:38:27.679
<v Speaker 1>So on that note, you have a lot of knowledge. Yeah,

756
00:38:28.559 --> 00:38:31.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm like white, what I was just like blonde eyed, black,

757
00:38:31.880 --> 00:38:37.400
<v Speaker 1>dye wrapped, dark brown, purple. That's so, that's so unique.

758
00:38:38.119 --> 00:38:42.320
<v Speaker 1>So let's say someone's working out m H five days

759
00:38:42.360 --> 00:38:45.760
<v Speaker 1>a week, three three to five days a week. Let's say, yeah,

760
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:50.599
<v Speaker 1>but they only Okay, I'm talking about myself. I honestly

761
00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:54.880
<v Speaker 1>assume that was coming. So I work out at least

762
00:38:54.920 --> 00:38:57.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to say an average of four days a

763
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:02.000
<v Speaker 1>week where I'm getting like exceptionally sweaty. Yep. I try

764
00:39:02.039 --> 00:39:04.559
<v Speaker 1>to wash my hair once a week. Yeah, what is

765
00:39:04.639 --> 00:39:07.239
<v Speaker 1>your opinion on that? And what can people do?

766
00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:12.400
<v Speaker 2>You can use a gentler like no poo shampoo where

767
00:39:12.480 --> 00:39:15.800
<v Speaker 2>they are non said zing, just a sham where they

768
00:39:16.000 --> 00:39:19.280
<v Speaker 2>literally it's almost like where curly girls do co washing.

769
00:39:19.760 --> 00:39:22.639
<v Speaker 2>It's more about cleansing the scalp than it is about

770
00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:24.159
<v Speaker 2>stripping the oils from your hair.

771
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:31.000
<v Speaker 1>No pooh shampoo. Yeah, so like dry shampoo.

772
00:39:31.280 --> 00:39:34.400
<v Speaker 2>No, so like curly lines. A lot of curly lines

773
00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:37.239
<v Speaker 2>have them. Some color lines will have them. For people

774
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:41.840
<v Speaker 2>that work out. It's a cream cleanser okay, yeah, so

775
00:39:41.960 --> 00:39:46.360
<v Speaker 2>you can wash more without stripping all the oils. Oh okay,

776
00:39:46.960 --> 00:39:49.440
<v Speaker 2>so like we carry one in our curly line. It's

777
00:39:49.519 --> 00:39:50.480
<v Speaker 2>the butter shampoo.

778
00:39:50.800 --> 00:39:51.639
<v Speaker 1>So it's it.

779
00:39:52.400 --> 00:39:54.800
<v Speaker 2>They say it has a micro ladder. The only person

780
00:39:54.840 --> 00:39:57.039
<v Speaker 2>I've really gotten a micro lather on is my two

781
00:39:57.119 --> 00:39:59.159
<v Speaker 2>year old. That's how gentle it is. I used it

782
00:39:59.280 --> 00:40:01.960
<v Speaker 2>on his hair, and everyone has always told me, your

783
00:40:02.039 --> 00:40:06.679
<v Speaker 2>kids have amazing hair. They have full heads of dense, thick,

784
00:40:06.840 --> 00:40:10.000
<v Speaker 2>curly hair. Thankful to their dad because that's not for

785
00:40:10.159 --> 00:40:15.280
<v Speaker 2>me maybe, but we both have curly hair, so they're

786
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:17.880
<v Speaker 2>always like you have. They have great hair, like it

787
00:40:18.039 --> 00:40:20.719
<v Speaker 2>never nodded and never tangled. But I always use good

788
00:40:20.760 --> 00:40:22.760
<v Speaker 2>product on them because it was in my shower and

789
00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:24.760
<v Speaker 2>I brought home the ones that were right for their hair.

790
00:40:26.360 --> 00:40:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Ham that's interesting, Well do you carry that next door? Yeah?

791
00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. There's a lot of people

792
00:40:37.440 --> 00:40:39.239
<v Speaker 1>in here that like they either wash their hair every

793
00:40:39.239 --> 00:40:42.679
<v Speaker 1>single day. A lot of people have talked about going

794
00:40:42.760 --> 00:40:45.679
<v Speaker 1>through hairy metopause and metopause at their hair set. I

795
00:40:45.840 --> 00:40:49.280
<v Speaker 1>am someone that used to get my hair like thinned out. Yeah,

796
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:51.320
<v Speaker 1>it's cut on its own. Now it's sitting on its

797
00:40:51.360 --> 00:40:54.719
<v Speaker 1>own formal yes. Yeah, so that's something I've noticed a lot.

798
00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Like even someone commented on my braid the other They're like, oh,

799
00:40:56.880 --> 00:40:58.400
<v Speaker 1>you have a nice full braid. I'm like, that's not

800
00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:00.559
<v Speaker 1>the size of what it used to be. So yeah,

801
00:41:00.840 --> 00:41:03.840
<v Speaker 1>like my ponytail was thing. Yeah, I was like, oh damn.

802
00:41:03.920 --> 00:41:06.480
<v Speaker 1>That's also thanks to I'm Italian, but my dad's side

803
00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:09.880
<v Speaker 1>has thick, thick, black, coarse hair. They're well Pruvian, so

804
00:41:10.000 --> 00:41:12.880
<v Speaker 1>that's where I get. My mom's hair is actually naturally

805
00:41:13.159 --> 00:41:17.639
<v Speaker 1>is strawberry red orange. Yeah yeah, so like that's my

806
00:41:18.039 --> 00:41:20.360
<v Speaker 1>My hair comes from my dad's side. So it's interesting

807
00:41:20.440 --> 00:41:22.760
<v Speaker 1>to see like how things shift and change. Do you

808
00:41:22.800 --> 00:41:27.480
<v Speaker 1>remember blondisma? Yes, I use that in my hair. I

809
00:41:27.519 --> 00:41:28.760
<v Speaker 1>just didn't tell you this, but I was a kid.

810
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:30.599
<v Speaker 1>I use that in my hair once because I'm like, oh,

811
00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:32.880
<v Speaker 1>I want to be blonde because everyone loves blonde girls.

812
00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:34.519
<v Speaker 1>So I bleached my hair.

813
00:41:34.639 --> 00:41:40.280
<v Speaker 2>That's what I looked like, like orange orange, rainbow, yes,

814
00:41:40.639 --> 00:41:43.400
<v Speaker 2>yellow red and orange tones. That's exactly what I look

815
00:41:43.440 --> 00:41:47.960
<v Speaker 2>like because it wasn't evenly distributed it either, because your

816
00:41:48.000 --> 00:41:52.280
<v Speaker 2>hair was so dense, so you got saturation is part

817
00:41:52.360 --> 00:41:54.480
<v Speaker 2>of lyft. So when you get the spots that get

818
00:41:54.519 --> 00:41:57.159
<v Speaker 2>really saturated, they probably made it to that yellow orange.

819
00:41:57.480 --> 00:41:59.360
<v Speaker 2>And then the spots in the back that were not

820
00:41:59.519 --> 00:42:02.440
<v Speaker 2>saturated so well, probably made it to like the red orange.

821
00:42:03.239 --> 00:42:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Wow. So what stage of the coloring do you think

822
00:42:05.559 --> 00:42:08.800
<v Speaker 1>was the burning part of my scalp? All of it? Yeah?

823
00:42:09.039 --> 00:42:13.559
<v Speaker 2>So again levels of lift and deposit. All box colors

824
00:42:13.559 --> 00:42:19.360
<v Speaker 2>are made to lift, not just deposit, So the ammonia

825
00:42:19.480 --> 00:42:22.400
<v Speaker 2>content and those are pretty high when you're lifting.

826
00:42:22.679 --> 00:42:24.559
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, you sit through your eyes feel like you're bleeding.

827
00:42:24.840 --> 00:42:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah side yeah. Yeah.

828
00:42:26.760 --> 00:42:30.920
<v Speaker 2>When my hair started going from like naturally dirty blonde

829
00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:32.679
<v Speaker 2>with all the different tones of blonde in it to

830
00:42:32.800 --> 00:42:36.119
<v Speaker 2>like darker, ashy blonde, I started getting so upset because

831
00:42:36.159 --> 00:42:38.679
<v Speaker 2>people always my hair was my big thing because I

832
00:42:38.719 --> 00:42:42.400
<v Speaker 2>always hated it, but they always complimented the color. So

833
00:42:42.639 --> 00:42:45.360
<v Speaker 2>like when I started losing that color, I got upset

834
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:48.280
<v Speaker 2>and I did a box color and my dad would

835
00:42:48.320 --> 00:42:50.440
<v Speaker 2>never let me play with my hair. Strict army man,

836
00:42:50.719 --> 00:42:52.840
<v Speaker 2>absolutely not I was perfect the way I was. Wasn't

837
00:42:52.840 --> 00:42:55.159
<v Speaker 2>allowed to touch anything, even the hair mask arrows that were.

838
00:42:55.079 --> 00:42:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Big when we were little.

839
00:42:56.119 --> 00:42:59.079
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, not even allowed to touch that. No, absolutely not.

840
00:42:59.559 --> 00:43:03.599
<v Speaker 2>But I was already so he let my mom do that.

841
00:43:04.360 --> 00:43:07.639
<v Speaker 2>I cried, I'm like, this is burning. What is happening

842
00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:09.400
<v Speaker 2>to me? And it didn't even go to like a

843
00:43:09.519 --> 00:43:11.239
<v Speaker 2>nice color. It barely did anything.

844
00:43:11.639 --> 00:43:15.840
<v Speaker 1>And that the things we do, it was the worst.

845
00:43:18.280 --> 00:43:21.320
<v Speaker 1>So seeing what the trends are like, we had blondisma

846
00:43:21.400 --> 00:43:25.320
<v Speaker 1>in like the nineties. Yeah, what what is your Is

847
00:43:25.360 --> 00:43:29.559
<v Speaker 1>there something that's I literally don't really know anything about hair. Yeah,

848
00:43:29.679 --> 00:43:31.920
<v Speaker 1>so I know that I need to brush my hair.

849
00:43:32.039 --> 00:43:36.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah's pretty much it. I'm learning. Yeah, what would you say?

850
00:43:36.960 --> 00:43:40.960
<v Speaker 1>Is something that's trending right now? Everything? Really, I remember

851
00:43:40.960 --> 00:43:43.239
<v Speaker 1>at one time bolliage was like really really big.

852
00:43:43.519 --> 00:43:46.639
<v Speaker 2>Everything is trending right now. People still want bolliage. Lived

853
00:43:46.679 --> 00:43:50.039
<v Speaker 2>in is coming back because it's more affordable. It's expensive

854
00:43:50.079 --> 00:43:52.320
<v Speaker 2>that once, but you can go further between. What's that

855
00:43:52.559 --> 00:43:55.880
<v Speaker 2>fashion colors are coming. It's another type of bolliyage. It's

856
00:43:55.920 --> 00:44:00.360
<v Speaker 2>just more natural. Oh yeah, it's just very lived in. Yeah,

857
00:44:01.079 --> 00:44:03.679
<v Speaker 2>it's like highlighted and melted away and then toned down

858
00:44:03.760 --> 00:44:05.960
<v Speaker 2>so it looks more natural, and as it lashes through,

859
00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:08.599
<v Speaker 2>it just looks like natural highlights. As it grows out,

860
00:44:10.400 --> 00:44:13.559
<v Speaker 2>solid colors are very in right now. Bright bold colors

861
00:44:13.599 --> 00:44:16.760
<v Speaker 2>are coming back. Color blocking is coming back. We are

862
00:44:17.000 --> 00:44:21.000
<v Speaker 2>at the age of information and TikTok and Instagram is

863
00:44:21.360 --> 00:44:25.000
<v Speaker 2>feeding everyone tons of information and misinformation.

864
00:44:25.800 --> 00:44:26.599
<v Speaker 1>So there's a lot.

865
00:44:27.719 --> 00:44:29.519
<v Speaker 2>I don't think we deal with one thing in the

866
00:44:29.559 --> 00:44:33.239
<v Speaker 2>salon anymore. Scalp health is huge right now. Scalp health

867
00:44:33.360 --> 00:44:37.559
<v Speaker 2>is huge right now, like huge. Having that at home

868
00:44:37.719 --> 00:44:42.360
<v Speaker 2>self care day is very important. What is that where

869
00:44:42.440 --> 00:44:44.920
<v Speaker 2>we do like hair masks and we make sure our

870
00:44:45.039 --> 00:44:47.599
<v Speaker 2>scalp is healthy and clean because we understand that's how

871
00:44:47.679 --> 00:44:53.360
<v Speaker 2>follicles grow through, free and clear. And like the younger

872
00:44:53.599 --> 00:44:56.360
<v Speaker 2>I saw an articles saying that the restaurants are struggling

873
00:44:56.360 --> 00:44:59.199
<v Speaker 2>because the younger generation isn't buying alcohol anymore because they

874
00:44:59.280 --> 00:45:01.920
<v Speaker 2>care more about their healthy have hear them being cool,

875
00:45:02.960 --> 00:45:05.920
<v Speaker 2>which I think is amazing, Like we're fixing it.

876
00:45:07.880 --> 00:45:11.079
<v Speaker 1>Like I think that's so awesome. But like self care and.

877
00:45:11.199 --> 00:45:15.559
<v Speaker 2>Self help is so important now, so that you're seeing

878
00:45:15.599 --> 00:45:19.039
<v Speaker 2>that come across in the hair. We don't care to

879
00:45:19.159 --> 00:45:21.679
<v Speaker 2>like fry her hair off to get that specific look anymore.

880
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:24.119
<v Speaker 2>Whatever's going to make it help happy and healthy is

881
00:45:24.199 --> 00:45:25.880
<v Speaker 2>kind of what's trendy.

882
00:45:26.559 --> 00:45:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah. There's a few people in here

883
00:45:30.920 --> 00:45:35.239
<v Speaker 1>that they're they're embracing their grays. Yeah, so they still

884
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:37.800
<v Speaker 1>go to a salon, Yeah, but they have it. So

885
00:45:37.920 --> 00:45:40.679
<v Speaker 1>it's like, maybe that sounds kind of like lived in

886
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:43.360
<v Speaker 1>but not lived in. I guess they're grown, they're growing

887
00:45:43.440 --> 00:45:44.920
<v Speaker 1>it in, but they're still like getting it cut. And

888
00:45:44.960 --> 00:45:47.320
<v Speaker 1>there's one woman in here she's had short hair her

889
00:45:47.360 --> 00:45:49.360
<v Speaker 1>whole life and she's like, what am I I believe

890
00:45:49.400 --> 00:45:53.039
<v Speaker 1>she's in her fifties and she's like, what am I

891
00:45:53.079 --> 00:45:54.400
<v Speaker 1>going to look like if I have long hair? I'm

892
00:45:54.400 --> 00:45:55.519
<v Speaker 1>going to try it for the first time in my

893
00:45:55.559 --> 00:45:57.639
<v Speaker 1>whole life. I'm like, okay, cool. So she's getting like

894
00:45:57.920 --> 00:46:00.800
<v Speaker 1>her hair like reshaped, and it's like looks like it's long,

895
00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:02.639
<v Speaker 1>but it looks like it's different. It's like, oh, yeah,

896
00:46:02.639 --> 00:46:04.159
<v Speaker 1>I got it cut to be reshaped because it has

897
00:46:04.159 --> 00:46:06.559
<v Speaker 1>to reshape a certain way to grow. I was like, oh,

898
00:46:06.679 --> 00:46:07.079
<v Speaker 1>what do you know?

899
00:46:07.119 --> 00:46:08.239
<v Speaker 2>I thought you just grew it.

900
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know, but I guess the.

901
00:46:10.840 --> 00:46:15.639
<v Speaker 2>Presentation there everybody always has a denser area on their heads,

902
00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:20.320
<v Speaker 2>so it's usually at the top or in the nape.

903
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:23.679
<v Speaker 2>So it's balancing the denser area to define your area

904
00:46:23.800 --> 00:46:26.280
<v Speaker 2>as it grows out, to keep the shape as you

905
00:46:26.360 --> 00:46:26.639
<v Speaker 2>growed in.

906
00:46:27.239 --> 00:46:30.800
<v Speaker 1>So do you do Do you do consultations where someone's like,

907
00:46:30.840 --> 00:46:32.199
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I want to do with my

908
00:46:32.320 --> 00:46:36.199
<v Speaker 1>hair and I just want something. Yeah, and people book that. Yeah,

909
00:46:36.239 --> 00:46:39.360
<v Speaker 1>people app stations online. Yeah, oh that's awesome.

910
00:46:39.519 --> 00:46:42.119
<v Speaker 2>And also we do a consultation at every appointment. Even

911
00:46:42.159 --> 00:46:44.760
<v Speaker 2>with my regulars. I have a lady who comes in

912
00:46:45.159 --> 00:46:47.599
<v Speaker 2>every four weeks, has never changed your haircut or color.

913
00:46:47.840 --> 00:46:48.679
<v Speaker 1>That's cary, isn't it.

914
00:46:50.400 --> 00:46:54.239
<v Speaker 2>She doesn't color all right, she won't even take a

915
00:46:54.320 --> 00:46:56.920
<v Speaker 2>coffee or tea. I still ask her if she wants

916
00:46:56.960 --> 00:46:59.639
<v Speaker 2>a coffee or tea, and I still ask her if

917
00:46:59.679 --> 00:47:01.599
<v Speaker 2>everything was fine and if we're doing the same thing,

918
00:47:02.039 --> 00:47:05.400
<v Speaker 2>because it's important the second you stop asking questions about

919
00:47:05.400 --> 00:47:07.400
<v Speaker 2>your client and just expecting that it's going to be

920
00:47:07.480 --> 00:47:09.440
<v Speaker 2>the same as the second they go to someone else.

921
00:47:10.719 --> 00:47:13.360
<v Speaker 2>Everyone needs to be feeling like they're cared for when

922
00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:15.559
<v Speaker 2>they come to a salon, whether it's the exact same

923
00:47:15.679 --> 00:47:20.039
<v Speaker 2>or not. Yeah, consultation is key always. Would you ever

924
00:47:20.159 --> 00:47:24.239
<v Speaker 2>make suggestion on haircuts as well? Yeah, like according to

925
00:47:24.360 --> 00:47:27.199
<v Speaker 2>like face shape or like what they're I had an

926
00:47:27.320 --> 00:47:29.320
<v Speaker 2>educator explain it to me this way one time, and

927
00:47:29.440 --> 00:47:33.119
<v Speaker 2>it's stuck with me. Our head is the first type

928
00:47:33.320 --> 00:47:36.960
<v Speaker 2>of smart technology, really, our body is. So our hair

929
00:47:37.119 --> 00:47:40.440
<v Speaker 2>actually grows in a direction that is meant to frame

930
00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:43.679
<v Speaker 2>our face and hit the money pieces in the happy spots.

931
00:47:44.119 --> 00:47:46.400
<v Speaker 2>So like where your cheekbones are, you want to make

932
00:47:46.440 --> 00:47:48.800
<v Speaker 2>them pop. Sometimes you don't want to hit a certain

933
00:47:48.840 --> 00:47:51.440
<v Speaker 2>area under the chin, you want to lift the eyes up.

934
00:47:52.039 --> 00:47:54.719
<v Speaker 1>Things like that. Our hair actually grows into shape, so

935
00:47:54.840 --> 00:47:58.599
<v Speaker 1>fighting a part is useless. Go with your part. Let

936
00:47:58.679 --> 00:48:00.960
<v Speaker 1>your hair go where it wants to. It knows better

937
00:48:01.039 --> 00:48:04.480
<v Speaker 1>than us. Yeah, yeah, that's neat.

938
00:48:04.639 --> 00:48:06.519
<v Speaker 2>It's meant to grow in with our head shape and

939
00:48:06.639 --> 00:48:09.960
<v Speaker 2>accentuate our features, so we have to allow it to

940
00:48:10.039 --> 00:48:10.280
<v Speaker 2>do that.

941
00:48:11.880 --> 00:48:14.679
<v Speaker 1>Neat. Yeah huh, I know, look at my hair the mirror.

942
00:48:14.760 --> 00:48:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Later this one time, I got to tell you I

943
00:48:20.000 --> 00:48:24.000
<v Speaker 1>was so like, I wanted to change myself so badly.

944
00:48:24.280 --> 00:48:26.320
<v Speaker 1>This is coming out of my last marriage I was in,

945
00:48:26.960 --> 00:48:30.920
<v Speaker 1>and I tried everything to be desired to look attractive,

946
00:48:31.000 --> 00:48:34.199
<v Speaker 1>Like I tried everything, and I cut my I've always always,

947
00:48:34.199 --> 00:48:36.920
<v Speaker 1>since I was like five years old, had hair long

948
00:48:37.000 --> 00:48:40.119
<v Speaker 1>while even longer than this. Yeah, and it's always been

949
00:48:40.199 --> 00:48:42.199
<v Speaker 1>like my signature. Look, I guess if you will. Because

950
00:48:42.280 --> 00:48:43.519
<v Speaker 1>the one time I tried to bleach it when I

951
00:48:43.559 --> 00:48:46.400
<v Speaker 1>was kind and so I ended up cutting my hair

952
00:48:46.519 --> 00:48:49.760
<v Speaker 1>like just above my shoulders yep. And I had probably

953
00:48:49.880 --> 00:48:52.599
<v Speaker 1>five different colors put into it. It was like a

954
00:48:52.760 --> 00:48:55.000
<v Speaker 1>light brown color and it had like three or four

955
00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:58.719
<v Speaker 1>different highlights and low lights and like like soft reds

956
00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:00.960
<v Speaker 1>and coppers and brown because I'm like, well, I need

957
00:49:01.039 --> 00:49:04.519
<v Speaker 1>to look like a soccer mom. Like I think that's

958
00:49:04.559 --> 00:49:07.639
<v Speaker 1>what my spouse at the time likes because I can't

959
00:49:07.679 --> 00:49:10.800
<v Speaker 1>figure it out. Yeah, and I know that I get

960
00:49:10.880 --> 00:49:13.400
<v Speaker 1>comments about like my skins a little bit too olive

961
00:49:13.480 --> 00:49:15.239
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that. So I'm like, okay, so how

962
00:49:15.679 --> 00:49:17.199
<v Speaker 1>how can I look in a way that you're gonna

963
00:49:17.320 --> 00:49:20.280
<v Speaker 1>like me? So I started like looking around and being

964
00:49:20.360 --> 00:49:22.480
<v Speaker 1>like how what how can I look like everybody else?

965
00:49:22.559 --> 00:49:24.760
<v Speaker 1>So the first thing I did was like cut my hair.

966
00:49:25.159 --> 00:49:27.079
<v Speaker 1>I think it was like three or four hundred dollars

967
00:49:27.119 --> 00:49:29.440
<v Speaker 1>that I paid it was, and it was like six hours,

968
00:49:29.559 --> 00:49:31.039
<v Speaker 1>Like yeah, I think that was a pretty good deal

969
00:49:31.079 --> 00:49:33.639
<v Speaker 1>for six hours of work. But like I was like, oh,

970
00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:36.239
<v Speaker 1>this isn't even even me. Like I looked in the

971
00:49:36.280 --> 00:49:39.440
<v Speaker 1>mirror and I'm like, I don't like anything about this. Yeah,

972
00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:43.079
<v Speaker 1>Like the haircut didn't match my face, the color, and like,

973
00:49:43.159 --> 00:49:47.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not meant to be this. I'm not meant to

974
00:49:47.800 --> 00:49:50.480
<v Speaker 1>look like the what we would stereotype and call like

975
00:49:50.480 --> 00:49:52.239
<v Speaker 1>a soccer mom, which is a soccer mom. Actually looked

976
00:49:52.280 --> 00:49:53.800
<v Speaker 1>like I could look like a soccer mom. I got

977
00:49:53.840 --> 00:49:55.519
<v Speaker 1>touch to usual. You never really know, but back then

978
00:49:55.599 --> 00:49:59.280
<v Speaker 1>that was like that look. Yeah. Yeah. So it's interesting

979
00:49:59.360 --> 00:50:01.840
<v Speaker 1>how you say, like the way your like your face

980
00:50:02.000 --> 00:50:04.880
<v Speaker 1>grows in a way that's that's good, like according to

981
00:50:04.960 --> 00:50:06.920
<v Speaker 1>like your cheekbones. But then you have to have that

982
00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:09.159
<v Speaker 1>person that you know and trust and love to have

983
00:50:09.320 --> 00:50:14.119
<v Speaker 1>the skill because as you just explained, there's many types

984
00:50:14.159 --> 00:50:19.800
<v Speaker 1>of scissors. It's not just crayola or backing scissors. Yeah. Actually,

985
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:21.800
<v Speaker 1>my spouse over COVID, she's gonna kill me for saying

986
00:50:21.800 --> 00:50:26.960
<v Speaker 1>this loud. So Chris is her name, and she's like, oh,

987
00:50:27.000 --> 00:50:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I was locked down. I couldn't go see my regular

988
00:50:29.440 --> 00:50:31.599
<v Speaker 1>hair person that she went to like for like twenty years.

989
00:50:32.159 --> 00:50:36.239
<v Speaker 1>She's like, I just used the dog grooming like the yeah,

990
00:50:36.320 --> 00:50:39.480
<v Speaker 1>like you're kidding me, Well, didn't look that bad? Did

991
00:50:39.639 --> 00:50:41.800
<v Speaker 1>look great? Look that bad? I'm like, okay, now let's

992
00:50:41.800 --> 00:50:42.840
<v Speaker 1>get you to a proper barber.

993
00:50:43.039 --> 00:50:43.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

994
00:50:44.760 --> 00:50:47.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so I was like, oh okay, Yeah. So it's

995
00:50:48.000 --> 00:50:51.000
<v Speaker 1>it's different, like how what what works for one person

996
00:50:51.119 --> 00:50:55.000
<v Speaker 1>and how something as small as seeing someone that is

997
00:50:55.119 --> 00:50:59.119
<v Speaker 1>qualified and educated can change how we I'm talking to

998
00:50:59.119 --> 00:51:01.800
<v Speaker 1>you like a consumer this context. Yeah, Like I know

999
00:51:01.960 --> 00:51:04.719
<v Speaker 1>that if I want to feel better and how I

1000
00:51:04.880 --> 00:51:07.880
<v Speaker 1>look and how I'm presented, that I know that if

1001
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I go and get my hair done, that's gonna put

1002
00:51:10.480 --> 00:51:12.039
<v Speaker 1>an extra pep in my step, the same way as

1003
00:51:12.079 --> 00:51:15.239
<v Speaker 1>if someone comes in here and doesn't workout forty minutes

1004
00:51:15.280 --> 00:51:17.079
<v Speaker 1>in and out, they're gonna be walking a little bit taller,

1005
00:51:17.119 --> 00:51:19.239
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more proud. And I think that's the

1006
00:51:20.960 --> 00:51:24.880
<v Speaker 1>same kind of idea or at least like relatable. Yep,

1007
00:51:25.000 --> 00:51:28.400
<v Speaker 1>that when people come into the lawn and I bet

1008
00:51:28.559 --> 00:51:30.559
<v Speaker 1>you have and I'm not even gonna bet, I know

1009
00:51:30.719 --> 00:51:32.480
<v Speaker 1>that you would have so many people going through so

1010
00:51:32.519 --> 00:51:35.800
<v Speaker 1>many different things sit in your chair. Yeah, yeah, if

1011
00:51:35.840 --> 00:51:38.400
<v Speaker 1>you had one story that was like your best story,

1012
00:51:39.000 --> 00:51:42.199
<v Speaker 1>something that you have remembered for a long time. What

1013
00:51:42.400 --> 00:51:46.800
<v Speaker 1>is one story from a client or from a teammate,

1014
00:51:46.960 --> 00:51:48.519
<v Speaker 1>or something that has stuck in your head.

1015
00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:52.760
<v Speaker 2>I honestly get asked this question so many times, and

1016
00:51:54.440 --> 00:51:59.239
<v Speaker 2>it's really hard for me to stick it like any

1017
00:51:59.280 --> 00:52:00.960
<v Speaker 2>of them, to stick it out, because some of them

1018
00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:03.559
<v Speaker 2>are really traumatic, so you try to block them out.

1019
00:52:04.039 --> 00:52:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Some of them are happy. But there's so much that

1020
00:52:07.880 --> 00:52:09.119
<v Speaker 2>goes on on a daily basis.

1021
00:52:09.199 --> 00:52:09.679
<v Speaker 1>I forget.

1022
00:52:10.800 --> 00:52:15.039
<v Speaker 2>I have been through weddings, I have been through cancer treatments,

1023
00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:18.519
<v Speaker 2>I have been through spousal passing away, I have been

1024
00:52:18.599 --> 00:52:22.360
<v Speaker 2>through baby losses. I have been through it all with

1025
00:52:22.519 --> 00:52:28.159
<v Speaker 2>my clients. So like, wow, yeah, like it's twenty years

1026
00:52:28.480 --> 00:52:34.199
<v Speaker 2>of business and hair and just growing with my clients

1027
00:52:35.559 --> 00:52:39.199
<v Speaker 2>the biggest Actually, it's more personal. I would say I

1028
00:52:39.440 --> 00:52:46.239
<v Speaker 2>was dealing with someone in the early years of my career. Yeah,

1029
00:52:46.280 --> 00:52:49.559
<v Speaker 2>because I use this when I mentor my younger staff

1030
00:52:49.639 --> 00:52:54.039
<v Speaker 2>coming on about why we need to make it easier

1031
00:52:54.079 --> 00:52:56.440
<v Speaker 2>to disconnect when we're at work from our real life.

1032
00:52:57.239 --> 00:52:59.679
<v Speaker 2>I was, or if they're burnt out and they need

1033
00:52:59.719 --> 00:53:02.199
<v Speaker 2>a brain to let me know, just say I'm burnt

1034
00:53:02.239 --> 00:53:04.679
<v Speaker 2>out and I need a break. And I'll understand. Use

1035
00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:07.440
<v Speaker 2>those words. We don't need to cut around corners. You

1036
00:53:07.519 --> 00:53:09.760
<v Speaker 2>can be honest with me and I will understand. I

1037
00:53:09.960 --> 00:53:12.639
<v Speaker 2>was dealing with a friend that had substance use abuse

1038
00:53:13.199 --> 00:53:18.440
<v Speaker 2>issues and it was coming to a point where it

1039
00:53:18.519 --> 00:53:21.280
<v Speaker 2>was taking a toll on me mentally and physically. We

1040
00:53:21.480 --> 00:53:23.800
<v Speaker 2>were at the end where it was like, this is

1041
00:53:23.840 --> 00:53:26.440
<v Speaker 2>the last time I can save you. You have to

1042
00:53:26.480 --> 00:53:30.239
<v Speaker 2>get treatment or we're going to have to take time apart. So,

1043
00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:33.800
<v Speaker 2>like going into work, I was noticeably not my bubbly

1044
00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:38.119
<v Speaker 2>happy self. And that's okay. It's okay to not be

1045
00:53:38.360 --> 00:53:46.960
<v Speaker 2>on every day, right, But trauma dumping with a client problem, yes,

1046
00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:50.079
<v Speaker 2>they're there to feel light. If it's a client that

1047
00:53:50.199 --> 00:53:52.480
<v Speaker 2>knows you really well and really wants to discuss it

1048
00:53:52.559 --> 00:53:55.039
<v Speaker 2>and talk it out with you, that's a different story.

1049
00:53:55.760 --> 00:53:59.679
<v Speaker 2>But trauma dumping and unleashing that negative energy is not okay.

1050
00:54:00.039 --> 00:54:03.320
<v Speaker 2>And then I had a client that saw someone they

1051
00:54:03.400 --> 00:54:05.880
<v Speaker 2>knew at the store that had come to see me

1052
00:54:05.920 --> 00:54:07.519
<v Speaker 2>and they're like, oh, yeah, I actually don't go see

1053
00:54:07.559 --> 00:54:10.079
<v Speaker 2>her anymore. And they're like what, and they're like, yeah,

1054
00:54:10.119 --> 00:54:12.639
<v Speaker 2>the last time I went it was really heavy and

1055
00:54:14.159 --> 00:54:17.239
<v Speaker 2>she wasn't okay, and it ruined the experience for me.

1056
00:54:18.079 --> 00:54:21.039
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, yeah, yeah. Yeah.

1057
00:54:21.480 --> 00:54:24.480
<v Speaker 2>So that's actually probably what sticks out for me the

1058
00:54:24.559 --> 00:54:29.079
<v Speaker 2>most because then it allowed me to understand that when

1059
00:54:29.119 --> 00:54:32.719
<v Speaker 2>I walk into that space every day, I'm also I'm

1060
00:54:32.760 --> 00:54:35.119
<v Speaker 2>responsible for myself and my own emotion, but I'm also

1061
00:54:35.159 --> 00:54:37.719
<v Speaker 2>affecting the person in my chair. So if that heavy

1062
00:54:37.800 --> 00:54:40.360
<v Speaker 2>feeling is something that they were going through at the

1063
00:54:40.400 --> 00:54:42.480
<v Speaker 2>same time and they needed a break from that, I

1064
00:54:42.559 --> 00:54:45.280
<v Speaker 2>didn't allow them that space, and I should have been

1065
00:54:45.480 --> 00:54:48.480
<v Speaker 2>able to say, hey, I need a break today. Yes,

1066
00:54:48.639 --> 00:54:51.039
<v Speaker 2>I can't do this today. Yeah.

1067
00:54:51.320 --> 00:54:54.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. So interesting too, because that's something that I've noticed

1068
00:54:54.679 --> 00:54:58.159
<v Speaker 1>about myself and here yep, because we make such good,

1069
00:54:58.559 --> 00:55:02.000
<v Speaker 1>solid relationships and connect and we end up a lot

1070
00:55:02.079 --> 00:55:04.239
<v Speaker 1>of us in here are very very close. Yes, And

1071
00:55:04.719 --> 00:55:07.519
<v Speaker 1>like I'm such a firm believer that I leave my

1072
00:55:08.400 --> 00:55:10.360
<v Speaker 1>I leave my shit at the door. Yeah. So, Like

1073
00:55:10.559 --> 00:55:13.119
<v Speaker 1>I had dogs that passed away like back to back,

1074
00:55:13.199 --> 00:55:14.639
<v Speaker 1>and it was like they were young, and it was

1075
00:55:14.679 --> 00:55:18.119
<v Speaker 1>like really like abruptly, and nobody knew and people like, oh,

1076
00:55:18.159 --> 00:55:20.000
<v Speaker 1>you guys have like X amount of dogs. I'm like, actually, no,

1077
00:55:20.079 --> 00:55:21.719
<v Speaker 1>we have one. This is all the time. We have one.

1078
00:55:21.719 --> 00:55:24.000
<v Speaker 1>They're like, yeah, what, like, why didn't you tell anybody?

1079
00:55:24.079 --> 00:55:26.519
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, no, that's that's not my place because

1080
00:55:26.559 --> 00:55:29.239
<v Speaker 1>when I come in here, it's not I wasn't on

1081
00:55:29.320 --> 00:55:31.360
<v Speaker 1>my social media. I'm very specific with what I post

1082
00:55:31.400 --> 00:55:33.760
<v Speaker 1>on my social media as well, Like I post like

1083
00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:35.960
<v Speaker 1>some weird things once in a while, but it's for

1084
00:55:36.159 --> 00:55:39.159
<v Speaker 1>a plan and a purpose. So like, I also know

1085
00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:42.119
<v Speaker 1>that when I'm going through staffing issues that I don't

1086
00:55:42.159 --> 00:55:44.440
<v Speaker 1>want to be the person that tears down my own team,

1087
00:55:44.639 --> 00:55:48.440
<v Speaker 1>especially two members. Yes, and in saying that, there are

1088
00:55:48.599 --> 00:55:51.280
<v Speaker 1>some OG members that have been here through the ups

1089
00:55:51.320 --> 00:55:54.280
<v Speaker 1>and the downs where I'm like I need I needed

1090
00:55:54.320 --> 00:55:57.679
<v Speaker 1>to ask. No, they know No, you cannot hide it

1091
00:55:57.760 --> 00:55:58.079
<v Speaker 1>from them.

1092
00:55:58.159 --> 00:55:58.679
<v Speaker 2>They know you.

1093
00:55:58.880 --> 00:56:01.199
<v Speaker 1>They know you better than you know yourself. Yeah, but

1094
00:56:01.400 --> 00:56:04.559
<v Speaker 1>sometimes knowing what the audience is and what's the plan

1095
00:56:04.760 --> 00:56:07.280
<v Speaker 1>of this. So like I know that I have about

1096
00:56:07.360 --> 00:56:09.440
<v Speaker 1>three or four trustee steeds. I'm gonna call them like

1097
00:56:09.800 --> 00:56:13.280
<v Speaker 1>people that I trust that are members here. And if

1098
00:56:13.320 --> 00:56:15.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm going through something or if I'm like, oh, I

1099
00:56:15.679 --> 00:56:17.320
<v Speaker 1>think that this might be a thing, but I'm not

1100
00:56:17.440 --> 00:56:19.880
<v Speaker 1>too sure, so I'm like, hey, do you have capacity

1101
00:56:20.000 --> 00:56:21.880
<v Speaker 1>for an opinion? Can I talk to you about something,

1102
00:56:22.320 --> 00:56:24.760
<v Speaker 1>did this happen, did this take place? What is like?

1103
00:56:24.880 --> 00:56:28.159
<v Speaker 1>Are you good? And they'll tell me like I'm like, okay, cool,

1104
00:56:28.320 --> 00:56:31.360
<v Speaker 1>And they always come from a neutral standpoint, YEP, because

1105
00:56:31.400 --> 00:56:34.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't love especially like I played ball hockey for

1106
00:56:34.760 --> 00:56:38.719
<v Speaker 1>a long time when you have like Max was eighteen people.

1107
00:56:38.800 --> 00:56:40.639
<v Speaker 1>I started my own team once. Then nobody knew how

1108
00:56:40.639 --> 00:56:42.559
<v Speaker 1>to hold a stick except like maybe one or two

1109
00:56:42.559 --> 00:56:45.199
<v Speaker 1>people including myself that did not know how to hold

1110
00:56:45.239 --> 00:56:46.400
<v Speaker 1>a stick. And I'm like, well, I just want to

1111
00:56:46.400 --> 00:56:48.000
<v Speaker 1>have time with my friends, So if my friends can't

1112
00:56:48.000 --> 00:56:49.440
<v Speaker 1>play with me on this team. And it was like

1113
00:56:49.480 --> 00:56:51.000
<v Speaker 1>two people, I'm like, I'm start my own team, and

1114
00:56:51.000 --> 00:56:53.480
<v Speaker 1>they're like, you need up to like minimum thirteen people.

1115
00:56:53.519 --> 00:56:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, okay. I ended up like waitlisting people that

1116
00:56:56.039 --> 00:56:57.480
<v Speaker 1>wanted to be on my hockey team. So I ended

1117
00:56:57.519 --> 00:56:59.360
<v Speaker 1>up with eighteen people on my roster. We had lost

1118
00:56:59.400 --> 00:57:04.239
<v Speaker 1>of switches. It was great, but we were all eighteen

1119
00:57:04.400 --> 00:57:08.960
<v Speaker 1>women facing another team chasing one ball. Yeah, it was

1120
00:57:09.079 --> 00:57:09.800
<v Speaker 1>very dramatic.

1121
00:57:10.280 --> 00:57:10.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1122
00:57:10.599 --> 00:57:13.119
<v Speaker 1>So if you can imagine, out of over two hundred

1123
00:57:13.159 --> 00:57:17.239
<v Speaker 1>members here plus our staff, we have one male member,

1124
00:57:19.119 --> 00:57:21.320
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of women in here. Yeah, there's a

1125
00:57:21.400 --> 00:57:24.239
<v Speaker 1>lot of fabulous women in here, yeah, and we all

1126
00:57:24.280 --> 00:57:27.719
<v Speaker 1>have our own life experiences and their personalities. But there's sometimes,

1127
00:57:27.800 --> 00:57:29.800
<v Speaker 1>as someone who is the filter of the business, there's

1128
00:57:29.840 --> 00:57:32.880
<v Speaker 1>things that happen that nobody will ever know, yeah, because

1129
00:57:33.079 --> 00:57:35.599
<v Speaker 1>it hits me first, or there's sometimes it hits other

1130
00:57:35.639 --> 00:57:37.800
<v Speaker 1>people first, and I'm like, hey, what is happening, Like

1131
00:57:37.840 --> 00:57:41.639
<v Speaker 1>the person that was drilling holes in the boat? Yeah,

1132
00:57:42.079 --> 00:57:44.920
<v Speaker 1>when three member come up, when three members send me

1133
00:57:44.960 --> 00:57:48.280
<v Speaker 1>messages and emails and call me and say, hey, this

1134
00:57:48.559 --> 00:57:51.400
<v Speaker 1>person who's not no longer here, This person who was

1135
00:57:52.079 --> 00:57:55.559
<v Speaker 1>a coach on the gym floor while she was teaching

1136
00:57:55.639 --> 00:57:59.559
<v Speaker 1>classes called you a bleep bleep bleep bleeping leap. I

1137
00:57:59.639 --> 00:58:02.280
<v Speaker 1>was like, why in my business on my jim floor

1138
00:58:02.400 --> 00:58:05.360
<v Speaker 1>in front of our members, to our members, I'm like, Okay,

1139
00:58:05.480 --> 00:58:07.400
<v Speaker 1>that's not that's not cool.

1140
00:58:07.639 --> 00:58:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1141
00:58:07.920 --> 00:58:12.639
<v Speaker 1>So it's like trying to also ask your clientele because

1142
00:58:12.639 --> 00:58:15.639
<v Speaker 1>they're the first hand experience exactly. And also in saying that,

1143
00:58:15.840 --> 00:58:18.960
<v Speaker 1>like I know that our members here. It's a different

1144
00:58:18.960 --> 00:58:22.079
<v Speaker 1>business model in a different kind of a context because

1145
00:58:22.440 --> 00:58:25.079
<v Speaker 1>people here are coming three times a week, four times

1146
00:58:25.119 --> 00:58:28.119
<v Speaker 1>a week, five times a week, so it's easy to

1147
00:58:28.239 --> 00:58:32.280
<v Speaker 1>build those ongoing relationships, but also be like, you guys

1148
00:58:32.320 --> 00:58:35.960
<v Speaker 1>are eyes while I'm not here, not that I need it,

1149
00:58:36.679 --> 00:58:39.719
<v Speaker 1>but they know that if something happens, they're going to

1150
00:58:39.760 --> 00:58:42.199
<v Speaker 1>come and tell me about it. And I think that

1151
00:58:42.360 --> 00:58:45.039
<v Speaker 1>that is also so important is building a a team

1152
00:58:45.079 --> 00:58:48.159
<v Speaker 1>you can trust yep. But also if someone goes rogue,

1153
00:58:49.000 --> 00:58:52.199
<v Speaker 1>there's a community that they all believe in the same

1154
00:58:52.320 --> 00:58:54.360
<v Speaker 1>vision and feeling good, and as soon as something doesn't

1155
00:58:54.400 --> 00:58:57.519
<v Speaker 1>feel good, they're like, ah, no bueno, I need to

1156
00:58:57.599 --> 00:58:59.920
<v Speaker 1>go talk to the person that can actually address this properly.

1157
00:59:00.280 --> 00:59:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1158
00:59:00.719 --> 00:59:03.599
<v Speaker 1>So it's a fine line between like I want to

1159
00:59:03.639 --> 00:59:05.119
<v Speaker 1>talk to you about this, but I also don't want

1160
00:59:05.159 --> 00:59:08.000
<v Speaker 1>to trauma dump on you exactly, and also like you're

1161
00:59:08.079 --> 00:59:10.320
<v Speaker 1>going through your own shit and everyone's going through shit.

1162
00:59:10.760 --> 00:59:14.559
<v Speaker 2>So it's like that where you say, do you have

1163
00:59:14.639 --> 00:59:17.840
<v Speaker 2>the capacity, yeah to handle this conversation right now? That's

1164
00:59:17.920 --> 00:59:19.320
<v Speaker 2>like a great way to do that.

1165
00:59:20.159 --> 00:59:24.599
<v Speaker 1>M Yeah, it's remembering to ask that too. Yeah. I've

1166
00:59:24.639 --> 00:59:28.559
<v Speaker 1>gotten really really good at that. Yeah, Yeah, the capacity

1167
00:59:28.679 --> 00:59:30.920
<v Speaker 1>or do you know, because there's certain things that when

1168
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:32.639
<v Speaker 1>we go through things, I feel like it's just a

1169
00:59:32.679 --> 00:59:35.440
<v Speaker 1>dead stop because there's certain things that you can't really

1170
00:59:35.519 --> 00:59:37.039
<v Speaker 1>talk to people about well.

1171
00:59:36.920 --> 00:59:39.280
<v Speaker 2>And sometimes it's hard to see what you're going through

1172
00:59:39.320 --> 00:59:41.440
<v Speaker 2>while you're in it. So seeing an outside of or

1173
00:59:41.519 --> 00:59:47.840
<v Speaker 2>opinion that has first hand I don't know the words

1174
00:59:47.880 --> 00:59:50.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm looking for right now, like bird's eye view, yeah,

1175
00:59:51.199 --> 00:59:54.679
<v Speaker 2>of what's happening in their first hand experience of what's happening.

1176
00:59:55.159 --> 00:59:57.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Yeah, I'm just getting their outlook.

1177
00:59:57.519 --> 01:00:00.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it's okay to ask for outlook and help

1178
01:00:02.079 --> 01:00:03.239
<v Speaker 2>when it's done in the right way.

1179
01:00:03.800 --> 01:00:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I agree with that. Yeah, depends on what is

1180
01:00:05.880 --> 01:00:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the motive with Yeah. Yeah.

1181
01:00:07.480 --> 01:00:07.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1182
01:00:07.719 --> 01:00:09.920
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of things like that circulate online, and

1183
01:00:10.000 --> 01:00:12.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm always online because it's hard to run a business

1184
01:00:12.559 --> 01:00:15.679
<v Speaker 1>without being online. Yeah, you need to be social media socials,

1185
01:00:15.719 --> 01:00:20.360
<v Speaker 1>so you have to interact. Yeah, And like there's something

1186
01:00:20.400 --> 01:00:23.800
<v Speaker 1>that is said like if you are always if you

1187
01:00:23.880 --> 01:00:27.000
<v Speaker 1>talk about somebody, that person's talking about you as well. Yeah,

1188
01:00:27.039 --> 01:00:30.280
<v Speaker 1>And that's something that I don't necessarily believe because there's

1189
01:00:30.280 --> 01:00:33.599
<v Speaker 1>certain there's certain aspects. If it's like all the time

1190
01:00:33.639 --> 01:00:35.880
<v Speaker 1>and all the people, then sure, like I'll be like okay, cool.

1191
01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:41.480
<v Speaker 1>If it's I'm having a conversation to my spouse about

1192
01:00:41.519 --> 01:00:43.679
<v Speaker 1>something that's happening in the business or going on. Then

1193
01:00:43.719 --> 01:00:47.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, Okay, that's not necessarily Sometimes there's factual, but

1194
01:00:47.840 --> 01:00:51.800
<v Speaker 1>we don't have anyone above us. So when we hear

1195
01:00:51.920 --> 01:00:54.639
<v Speaker 1>things or do things or things need to change, sometimes

1196
01:00:54.679 --> 01:00:57.119
<v Speaker 1>you have to have those discussions. So if I want

1197
01:00:57.159 --> 01:01:00.559
<v Speaker 1>to talk to my right hand man about something the business,

1198
01:01:01.119 --> 01:01:03.599
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, hey, and I talk about something that's

1199
01:01:03.679 --> 01:01:06.800
<v Speaker 1>going on and there's going to be name dropping, that

1200
01:01:07.239 --> 01:01:11.079
<v Speaker 1>doesn't necessarily mean that that's me talking shit, because again,

1201
01:01:11.119 --> 01:01:14.159
<v Speaker 1>it depends on what outcome are you looking for? Yes, yeah,

1202
01:01:14.320 --> 01:01:16.639
<v Speaker 1>and same like like vice versa, like from a business

1203
01:01:16.639 --> 01:01:19.599
<v Speaker 1>owner to a business owner. There's sometimes I have a

1204
01:01:19.639 --> 01:01:22.679
<v Speaker 1>friend that owns a gym and there was a membership

1205
01:01:22.800 --> 01:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>that I ended up canceling, like over five six years ago,

1206
01:01:26.920 --> 01:01:29.159
<v Speaker 1>and this person came in and was like a bull

1207
01:01:29.199 --> 01:01:32.159
<v Speaker 1>in a China shop and route and mean and degrading

1208
01:01:32.199 --> 01:01:34.559
<v Speaker 1>to people. Yes, and people would see her name in

1209
01:01:34.599 --> 01:01:37.800
<v Speaker 1>class and they wouldn't show up. Yeah, So, hey, Kim,

1210
01:01:37.960 --> 01:01:43.119
<v Speaker 1>where's podcasting? Oh Kim just walked in, Kim says high,

1211
01:01:44.719 --> 01:01:47.840
<v Speaker 1>So I'm not even gonna edit that. That's kind of fun.

1212
01:01:49.119 --> 01:01:53.159
<v Speaker 1>So okay, I picking up where I dropped the ball there.

1213
01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:57.800
<v Speaker 1>So another gym owner in myself because I was also

1214
01:01:58.000 --> 01:02:00.800
<v Speaker 1>periodically going there as well as back a few years ago,

1215
01:02:01.320 --> 01:02:03.719
<v Speaker 1>and I said, I was like, ooh, this person I

1216
01:02:03.880 --> 01:02:06.280
<v Speaker 1>just saw is coming to your gym, and she was like, yeah,

1217
01:02:06.360 --> 01:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>we'll see how that goes. I'm like, remember the story

1218
01:02:08.519 --> 01:02:10.440
<v Speaker 1>about and she was like, oh my gosh. She's like,

1219
01:02:10.519 --> 01:02:12.599
<v Speaker 1>tell me that's her. I'm like, yeah, that is her.

1220
01:02:12.639 --> 01:02:14.480
<v Speaker 1>She's like, okay, I could see it. I'm like, I'm

1221
01:02:14.519 --> 01:02:17.519
<v Speaker 1>just telling you just for your information, just so you

1222
01:02:17.719 --> 01:02:21.519
<v Speaker 1>can like watch what's going on. Yep. And sure enough,

1223
01:02:21.599 --> 01:02:23.320
<v Speaker 1>the same thing that she was doing there, she was

1224
01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:25.400
<v Speaker 1>going and doing it there. She ended up just fading

1225
01:02:25.679 --> 01:02:28.639
<v Speaker 1>out eventually. But it wasn't for me to say you

1226
01:02:28.679 --> 01:02:30.519
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't do business with that person, because I would never

1227
01:02:30.599 --> 01:02:32.000
<v Speaker 1>do that because I said to her, I'm like, maybe

1228
01:02:32.039 --> 01:02:35.199
<v Speaker 1>she's changed because this wasn't the atmosphere for her. Maybe

1229
01:02:35.280 --> 01:02:38.079
<v Speaker 1>she needed a different atmosphere, which is what she wanted.

1230
01:02:38.519 --> 01:02:40.480
<v Speaker 1>But I'm just letting you know that that's the same person.

1231
01:02:40.519 --> 01:02:42.320
<v Speaker 1>And she was like, oh, okay, thank you for that information.

1232
01:02:43.719 --> 01:02:46.159
<v Speaker 1>So I think like when it comes down to having

1233
01:02:46.239 --> 01:02:49.119
<v Speaker 1>the conversations about people, places, or things, sometimes I think

1234
01:02:49.159 --> 01:02:52.199
<v Speaker 1>it does depend on what is the outcome of it?

1235
01:02:52.519 --> 01:02:56.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, And in that moment, you were just

1236
01:02:56.119 --> 01:02:58.079
<v Speaker 2>trying to protect your friend and her business.

1237
01:02:59.119 --> 01:03:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I have one of those.

1238
01:03:02.960 --> 01:03:05.280
<v Speaker 2>We have daily night talks and both her husbands are like,

1239
01:03:05.320 --> 01:03:06.400
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, here she goes.

1240
01:03:06.559 --> 01:03:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I used to have that. You need to get

1241
01:03:09.360 --> 01:03:12.760
<v Speaker 1>it off your chest. Yeah, you need a person always. Yeah.

1242
01:03:12.880 --> 01:03:15.239
<v Speaker 1>One of my really good friends, he's a chiropractor and

1243
01:03:15.320 --> 01:03:18.079
<v Speaker 1>Barry and he has his own business and there's sometimes

1244
01:03:18.119 --> 01:03:20.760
<v Speaker 1>and it's nice because we're not the same industry. Yes,

1245
01:03:21.039 --> 01:03:23.559
<v Speaker 1>so I'm like, oh, how's your day. How's your day? Oh? Nothing.

1246
01:03:23.639 --> 01:03:27.079
<v Speaker 1>He's such a nice guy that there's he's very consistent.

1247
01:03:27.639 --> 01:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Everything is very consistent. I'm like, oh, I wish that

1248
01:03:29.840 --> 01:03:33.079
<v Speaker 1>I could be even just like as peaceful as you

1249
01:03:33.199 --> 01:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>are on the outside. And he's like, I wish I

1250
01:03:36.000 --> 01:03:37.960
<v Speaker 1>could be more outgoing and more sheet from the hip

1251
01:03:38.079 --> 01:03:39.760
<v Speaker 1>like you. And I'm like, no, no, no, that's it's

1252
01:03:39.760 --> 01:03:43.440
<v Speaker 1>all another ballgame. His balance, his balance, So like when

1253
01:03:43.480 --> 01:03:45.239
<v Speaker 1>we talk, it's like, oh, this is great. He just

1254
01:03:45.320 --> 01:03:48.920
<v Speaker 1>overlapped the same like business stuff y. Right. Yeah, so

1255
01:03:49.039 --> 01:03:50.800
<v Speaker 1>if you were to give someone advice and we're gonna

1256
01:03:50.800 --> 01:03:52.599
<v Speaker 1>wrap this up, real quick. I love having you on

1257
01:03:52.760 --> 01:03:55.239
<v Speaker 1>the podcast, Martina, like, it's so great to actually sit

1258
01:03:55.320 --> 01:03:57.199
<v Speaker 1>and talk with you, and I yell from other's side.

1259
01:04:00.079 --> 01:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, here we go. If you were to

1260
01:04:02.519 --> 01:04:07.239
<v Speaker 1>give someone advice that maybe they weren't feeling like themselves,

1261
01:04:09.519 --> 01:04:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I got two questions on that one, all right, one,

1262
01:04:11.639 --> 01:04:14.440
<v Speaker 1>what is advice that someone has given you? And what

1263
01:04:14.519 --> 01:04:18.800
<v Speaker 1>would you give to somebody else? Be real, not perfect?

1264
01:04:19.800 --> 01:04:23.039
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I actually have a tattooed on my arm

1265
01:04:23.159 --> 01:04:26.480
<v Speaker 1>really case. Yeah yeah, Oh wow.

1266
01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:30.559
<v Speaker 2>I love that I had an army father and a

1267
01:04:30.679 --> 01:04:32.639
<v Speaker 2>European mother and everything had.

1268
01:04:32.559 --> 01:04:38.280
<v Speaker 1>To be done German at that. Oh yeah, wow, everything

1269
01:04:38.360 --> 01:04:41.599
<v Speaker 1>had to be done perfectly, and I carried that through

1270
01:04:41.679 --> 01:04:43.440
<v Speaker 1>life and it put a lot of pressure on.

1271
01:04:43.519 --> 01:04:48.639
<v Speaker 2>Me, sorry guys, Christine to just spilt water all.

1272
01:04:48.519 --> 01:04:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Over all over the train of thought.

1273
01:04:51.920 --> 01:04:54.280
<v Speaker 2>So, yeah, everything had to be done perfectly, and I

1274
01:04:54.400 --> 01:04:56.840
<v Speaker 2>was so in my head about making sure I was

1275
01:04:56.880 --> 01:04:57.679
<v Speaker 2>doing it perfectly.

1276
01:04:58.159 --> 01:05:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't enjoying the moment of it.

1277
01:05:01.400 --> 01:05:04.880
<v Speaker 2>So just being myself and not being perfect was exactly

1278
01:05:04.960 --> 01:05:06.639
<v Speaker 2>what I needed to hear when I heard it, and

1279
01:05:06.719 --> 01:05:09.199
<v Speaker 2>it was actually my education training. It was on the

1280
01:05:09.280 --> 01:05:11.159
<v Speaker 2>wall all weekend and I didn't see it till the

1281
01:05:11.239 --> 01:05:11.719
<v Speaker 2>last week.

1282
01:05:11.840 --> 01:05:16.079
<v Speaker 1>The last day. Oh yeah, wow, the things that sticky.

1283
01:05:16.280 --> 01:05:16.599
<v Speaker 1>Uh huh.

1284
01:05:16.719 --> 01:05:18.599
<v Speaker 2>So when I saw it, I'm like, oh my gosh.

1285
01:05:18.840 --> 01:05:21.960
<v Speaker 2>And that whole weekend I learned that being me was enough.

1286
01:05:23.159 --> 01:05:26.239
<v Speaker 2>And most people, if they're saying it's not, it's because

1287
01:05:26.239 --> 01:05:27.320
<v Speaker 2>they're projecting.

1288
01:05:26.920 --> 01:05:31.679
<v Speaker 1>Their own stuff onto you. Yeah, that's it. It's that simple,

1289
01:05:32.920 --> 01:05:35.920
<v Speaker 1>that is so solid. And reminding yourself of that every day.

1290
01:05:37.920 --> 01:05:41.440
<v Speaker 2>One other thing I learned too, is it is important,

1291
01:05:42.320 --> 01:05:44.440
<v Speaker 2>and it is very difficult for most people to do.

1292
01:05:45.280 --> 01:05:48.719
<v Speaker 2>Start standing in the mirror every day doing power.

1293
01:05:48.519 --> 01:05:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Poses, power pose like bam, yeah yeah.

1294
01:05:52.400 --> 01:05:57.280
<v Speaker 2>And affirm yourself the entire time. And if you really

1295
01:05:57.400 --> 01:05:59.320
<v Speaker 2>need to strip down with it, you need to strip

1296
01:05:59.400 --> 01:06:02.039
<v Speaker 2>down and naked and stand in front of a mirror.

1297
01:06:02.480 --> 01:06:05.360
<v Speaker 2>I haven't even gotten to that part yet. Nope, still

1298
01:06:05.400 --> 01:06:12.800
<v Speaker 2>not there yet. I've had children. You strip yourself down

1299
01:06:12.920 --> 01:06:18.199
<v Speaker 2>to your most vulnerable, your most vulnerable self, and stand

1300
01:06:18.280 --> 01:06:21.760
<v Speaker 2>in a powerful pose and affirm yourself for an entire minute.

1301
01:06:21.920 --> 01:06:24.679
<v Speaker 2>And when you can get to that, you're doing good.

1302
01:06:25.320 --> 01:06:28.960
<v Speaker 2>You start small and grow start ten seconds, thirty seconds,

1303
01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:31.079
<v Speaker 2>forty seconds, and just keep growing it.

1304
01:06:31.800 --> 01:06:34.360
<v Speaker 1>Huh yeah, I've never heard that. I heard a lot

1305
01:06:34.440 --> 01:06:36.239
<v Speaker 1>of things I've never heard that. I'm gonna try it.

1306
01:06:36.400 --> 01:06:39.239
<v Speaker 1>It makes sense, right, it does make. It sounds very

1307
01:06:41.440 --> 01:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>life changing and scary.

1308
01:06:43.840 --> 01:06:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and like becoming So when people see me personally

1309
01:06:49.159 --> 01:06:51.119
<v Speaker 2>on my hair Goddess page in my stories where I

1310
01:06:51.199 --> 01:06:53.920
<v Speaker 2>show my outfits and stuff, yeah, that's my favorite. That's

1311
01:06:54.119 --> 01:06:57.440
<v Speaker 2>me standing in the mirror telling me I'm worthy.

1312
01:06:58.440 --> 01:07:00.239
<v Speaker 1>That is cool. And then I take picre sure of

1313
01:07:00.239 --> 01:07:02.920
<v Speaker 1>it because I'm proud of myself and I just may
