"I think it's one of the greatest compliments we get when we go through a session, and somebody looks me in the eyes and says Oh, man, I wish I made the call 10 years ago. Um, based on what you're showing me, So let me ask you this question for both of you. When was it? Was it high school was a junior high when you for the first time? Dissected a frog. Oh, God. Biology. Wasn't it like seventh grade? Was it like seventh grade? Eighth grade? I can't remember. Do you remember shit when you do I exactly, Uh, I was a Cox High school in Virginia Beach. And it was 10th grade that we actually dissected our frog 10th grade in biology class. Okay, so maybe it was like 8/9 10th grade. I would say. Well, I'll tell you what What happened to me. I almost fainted. I almost passed out. I got sick to my stomach. And I told the teacher I don't think I can do this. I don't think dissecting is in my future at all. But I was wrong because every single day we dissect tax returns. We dissect investment portfolios. Mutual funds, variable annuities, unit investors. We dissect everything. Maybe it's the smell of what do they call that stuff? It's for Melania High formaldehyde. So my God, your Your dissections are minus the awful formaldehyde smell the preservative. Right? So maybe that's it. Maybe maybe it's numbers. I don't know, but I love dissecting. You know, a clients. Portfolio. I love dissecting their entire situation because we always find something that we know we can enhance their life. We always find something where we're able to say You know what? Look at the number of benefits that we can bring to the table for this client. So when it comes to dissecting, I'm all in now. I just wish I was exposed to it, Um, in my biology class, this way, as opposed to with the frog on on the plate, But you know, you used the word dissect so much when some people come into the office. They asked for Dr Holland. I have to tell you that I'm like, okay, He's not a doctor. Right? Right. Financial dude Financial under Dr Holland, come to the analysis room, Stab, stab, stab We We have a really sick patient a really sick portfolio on the table. Right now. We need you to dissect this portfolio and make better recommendations. I will be happy to as long as there's no frog and and I'll be good. So seriously getting back to this article. There's something that I like very much here again. I do not like when I see recommendations. How to spend your money without talking about taxes at all kind of like it doesn't even exist. That's just wrong because clients are going to pay dearly in the end. Well, we know that a lot of people are advisors cannot talk about taxes right now. If you're talking to a stockbroker, there's no way stockbroker. We'll talk to you about taxes. When it comes to your investment. They're going to give you a business card. Call this guy right Call this guy called this gal. There are great C p A. And that works. That's fine. But, you know, we just tend to do all of this stuff under one roof, which we hear it all the time. We love the one stop shopping. It works very well for us. So when I do like about this article is they're encouraging people to get a social security. Online account, right? I do remember, they used to mail those social security statement right anymore. Yeah, they really don't they? Well, it says here in the article that they're they're mailing them for people who I think are 61 years old and older. Now they're mailing it. Like once a year. Yeah, but for younger people they're saying Look, No, we're not going to mail this to you. Go online. Go to my Social Security Open an account. Now we have helped hundreds and hundreds of clients go through this process. And if you're listening, and you say, you know, that makes sense. I'm going to make sure my social Security account is current. I'm going to make sure I'm up to speed with all of this. Here's what I want you to do before you download your social security or before you actually try to get a social Security online account. Download your credit report. Because that's where they get the security questions to make sure it's you healthcare implications A state planning There are so many little pitfalls so many little Potential problems that you could veer you off into a ditch. And when you're working with Stephen Elizabeth Holland at the Holland Group Retirement Wealth Advisors, they do this day in and day out and things that just go over our heads. Listen, I'm a radio guy. I mean, I do the shit show I do. The MJ Morning show is returned. And they're the financial pros. I know how to do the radio thing. I probably have a y'all a little above average sense when it comes to finances, But still Steve Elizabeth what you guys do. On a daily basis. What you guys do every single day day in and day out. It's sort of like breathing for you when you breathe. That's involuntary. It just happens and all of the things that we don't know about as laypeople, you guys This is your specialty. You deal in these things every day. It's like it's like, like I said, breathing, so I'm I'm going to give you a little bit of vice. Um, I did get this comment on the radio from a couple of people and I forgot to mention it to you. Dave asked me what financial degree There's net have, right? I have a degree in finance. Well, listen, I was a business major in college I took I took macro economics. I took micro economics and I took a variety of business classes and listen, I I do run a small business. I mean, I I am a small businessman as a radio broadcaster. I've had a radio company. Uh, that I've run myself for years. And, you know, I think I've done pretty well. But as far as having a financial, uh, you know, uh, a degree in management. I don't. That's why I always say I am. I am the radio entertainer here, but I do have Probably a little above average. Or maybe, you know, a couple of clicks above average than the regular person just through the nature of what I do, you know, doing talk radio doing entertainment radio and again the amount of what I've read over the years and the conversations that people I know I've absorbed a lot, But listen, I'm certainly nowhere near What you guys do in eating, sleeping, breathing this stuff every single day, I guess what? What? They were trying to say that you fit in so well, but what we're doing and how we talk to each other. And that's really important so they wanted to know your background and to finance financial world and I said to them, you know, basically what happens here is that You have to make sure you go to the expert for your financial needs, and we're certainly the expert. Their right. Of course you are the expert on the radio. And, of course, there's a business owner. You have to have some kind of savviness in business..

"With sisters. My sister laura loves disco. She was that was her jam. Funk soul disco earth wind and fire is probably the one record or the one group that really reminds me of her. I mean she's into the teenyboppers stuff to andy gabe and the osbournes and stuff like that. But when earth wind and fire were super-popular in the disco era chewed often come home from school work and she'd put on some earth wind fire songs and just dance just dance. It was like a stress reliever for her. But stephen i would just kind of sit there and watch her dancing. She seemed so happy to be lost in this music. And when i started seventh grade we had school dances as you know. You probably had them to john and it didn't know how to dance very well so she showed me how to do. Some basic moves with like earth wind and fire songs and then progressive other moves. That were little. More advanced beginner disco. But it worked and i never had problems asking girls to dance. Because i wasn't embarrassed by my lack of rhythm on the dance floor. I wish older sister damn should've gotten the begged her for it. Man i needed so much help in that period of my life. The record that i really love by the band is their nineteen seventy seven album all in all and like many earth wind and fire records. It has this egyptian theme. It's almost sifi which i love. I love sci-fi stuff but it has solid and varied songs from start to finish. Of course there are some huge hits on this record. Serpentine fire and fantasy and jupiter was at the top of the charts.

Thank you so much that means a lot to me You know in starting this conversation today. We could obviously talk about the research stuff. But i wanted to start more at your own childhood because i think it's i get a real kick out of every time i read that you created intelligence test when you were in. Maybe even elementary school. Can you kind of tell me about that story. Sure when i was in elementary school i didn't created i did poorly on. Iq tests is a young kid. In the late fifties early sixties. They used to give iq tests every year to group iq tests. And i did very poorly on them and you might ask how i know since they didn't give us the scores. But when you get the test and you only finish one or two problems and everyone else's turn the page. It doesn't take a high. You realize that you bombed so when i was in sixth grade i was sent back to a fifth grade classroom to take an easier tests that they thought would be more suitable to my ability level and because it was a fifth grade classroom my was less afraid and i think i did better i in seventh grade.

4 Things with Amy Brown
"seventh grade" Discussed on 4 Things with Amy Brown
"Them. Michelle williams here. You go okay sitting here at michelle on zoom and your book is called checking in and you've been very transparent about what you have gone through and i think for some people sometimes there is that that in-between where you're like. I don't really know how to figure out. Am i just having a moment here. Or is this full-blown something that i to address on a deeper level and so when did you realize that you moved from low moods and what did those look like for you and then into depression and what about look like for you. We'll in the seventh grade. Is when i started doing something different but i didn't know it was depression but it was fatigue grades ping isolation a lot of sleeping on but i wanna say it was probably when i was in my twenties in the early part of destiny's child where i thought it was something definitely was like something was going on for sure. Like when in your adult. Did you make that observation. That seventh grade was something more than just fatigue. The diagnosis came in my when i was in my thirties that it was depression. What were the things that you realize like okay. I might need to go and get this checked out. Like what were the indicators for you. I would say how i was finding to things that probably didn't require quote unquote all of that The rage. Because i'm not an angry person. The rage that was building up inside of me in how i wanted to respond to specific person about a specific incident and i was like. You've never respond like that. I was betrayed in a business situation by somebody that had been working for me for a long time and i didn't want that person to exist on earth anymore. I'll say the clean way. And i was like you never responded that way. If i'm being frank. I don't know if many of you who are listening pat something happen to you and you're like you know what i'm about to go to jail. I wanna put language to what a person be feeling or language to what you probably have felt in the past. Yeah i think that for myself. I noticed different rage moments. I have not been enough full blown. Depression type situation but definitely had some lows indefinitely. I needed to work through. Because it they were manifesting and coming out in other ways like with my kids. I would just completely overreact. And there was times where. I slammed milk on the counter and it would go like everywhere and the lid and it startled them and i it and then when looking back as startling me and i'm like whoa. There's a better way in. it's probably startling. You a hurting you to see what the date to your children. S very even looking back. There's other stories to the milk. One is just an example. But that was a moment where i knew i needed to dig a little deeper to what the root of that anger was. I think part of me wanted to just think. Oh maybe i'm just hormonal and there's probably a little bit of denial there because i think that that's sometimes hormones are real thing. That's what i thought was going on with me in like the seventh grade. I'm going to prove puberty. Maybe this is what happens. Maybe my pms has just lasted a long time than normal. So it's hard to when you don't have language ford or don't even know to go to the doctor about a you know they can do all the blood work for you or like okay. Well maybe we should send you to a psychiatrist. You can get an assessment. I'm so very tricky. Because you also have forms of pms which a higher form of it is pm. D yes versus is a depression bipolar. They run neck and neck at times. There are times like just going to be honest. I had to check my calendar this week. I was getting irritated about something. And i checked my calendar this week in said your one day away from your cycle comment i was like oh okay okay understood so i'm so glad for that particular that i had because i'm able to check in with myself to check the calendar. So how how do you handle the the difference in. Guess if something happens in a non-hormonal time and you feel like a particular low rage but then when you do get the affirmation of like oh it's my period i don't know. Do you have check in things that you can do to reset. I do. I do yesterday. I ate a lotta peach cobbler. That helps in caught up on some some shows that i have been missing but on a serious note there was something going on. That had nothing to do with my hormones. I was feeling overwhelmed. And i was like. Oh my gosh. I hate this feeling. It's because it's filling too similar to depression. So i caught my therapist right away. We just began to pull onion back and get to the root and she said you're not depressed. You're filling pressure. You have a book coming out in two weeks. He's had you not checked in. It probably would have turned into depression. So was good to process with someone so not only was aware of how i was feeling so i checked in with myself then not checked in with others somewhat else my therapist on. That's one of the pillars in my book. Checking in with yourself check in with others checking with swat checked in with her. She said okay. It's pressured in so they're not checking with god. I say god. There are certain things. I'm just going to give over to you. That i have no worry about. My book is in. Your hands is gonna touch. The people in might not touch everybody in the first week. So i gave it to you guys in that worry. Anxiety just melted away but it really melted away as well when my therapists was like. It's not depression. Because i was i was like. Oh my gosh shopping. Doing everything i'm supposed to do so pressure will come..

I never had like this grand altar altar. Call moment. I remember going to a youth overnight camp with one of my friends when i was in seventh grade and the whole thing was fine and we're doing all the things you do eating pizza and making t-shirts and whatnot and at one point. We were doing worship before bed. And the youth pastor or the pastor whoever was there did this altar call essentially. And if you've not accept jesus into your heart come down now. And i was thirteen and i was like well. I don't know what that means like. I know i believe in jesus. And so i went down because like i don't know what else to do. And they like put hands on me and they were praying. And i remember sitting there thinking i should probably be having a moment right now all i can think about is what is happening so confused and so i called my mom to say goodnight and i told her what had happened and she was like okay.

"It was at that point in time when my work started to suffer. Because i was having to call in sick because i was so tired. And then you know you can't really tell why In that i that i thought out. the hypnotic regression. It was that point and you know a lot of people who have these experiences and they want to have hypnosis to remember. They just curious about what happened in just want remember. I had an idea of what had happened. And i just wanted to stop the trauma. And i think that It was extremely successful. Because i wasn't necessarily curious about what had happened. Because i understood that i was taking but but going through the memories in a state of complete calm you know as you're hypnotized us just like extreme relaxation is what it is and and working through the memory without having any emotional upset sir you know tensing of the body or anything really helped put it to sleep. You know those memories. we're no longer traumatic. They're just normal memories for me now and Ever since i had that regression. I've been fine. We're sleeping except for maybe a couple of times but in general it just it completely my world you know a lot of times when they show something on television and someone's getting hypnotized to re to remember. They seem so you know which television or movie it's traumatizing. You yours just very calming because you knew you were gonna call. You knew you were in a safe environment right forgetting that you went from there but why do they show. I wonder why they show it that way so much movies they did. They have to be woke up and they're just so scared and they feel that way even after they wake up. I'm like they are chinking. Somebody's chain right now right. Yeah let me. how Others yeah well. I think that you know it. If you get surprised by the information. I mean. I knew i. I thought i had remembered everything that had happened. you know. I thought i was good with remembering the the sequence of events but i found out that my mind had worked at a little bit but since i already knew i think i was okay with the remembering the and You know but also yvonne. Smith is the the hypnotherapist that i work with. She was able to keep me calm. And it's that state of calm. That is the most important As far as i can tell with with the trauma now if you're going into hypnosis just because you want to know what happened to you in seventh grade and not really having those traumatic symptoms that need to be put to bed. I think that it can wake up some extra trauma that you perhaps did not realize was there and so You know speaking speaking with von this weekend and then you know with my own training as a as a clinical therapist and and i do have training and hypnosis at this point. You know if if you're okay don't just don't they're know not with noses if you if you know something happened but you're not having any symptoms. Don't really probably best not to go there. I was asked if i when i went through the he healing and the counseling. For what i've been through. I remembered somebody not all and i didn't want to so my always wondered if that was a mistake but she didn't feel it was she said that really is up to you and you can always come back as you feel you want to. I've never felt. I felt like i did not want to know everything that happened..

How Chris Wilson Went From Life In Prison To A Life Of Meaning And Purpose
"Chris. Welcome to the unmistakable. Creative thanks so much for taking the time to join us. Thanks for having me. It is my pleasure to have you here. So i actually came across your story up because of an article that you wrote on medium about the books that change your life in prison and i remember reading through that and my first reaction was jesus this guy Learn to speak multiple languages. Read all these books for hey. I went to berkeley. And i didn't do anywhere near that in four years of college So we'll get into that. But i think i want to start with what i think is a fitting question that i tend to ask a lot of people and that is what did your parents do for work. And how did that end up. Impacting the choices that you ended up making throughout your life in your so gr growing up. My mom started her career as a nurse. How after she graduated from college and then she went back to school and she got a couple of certifications became a paramedic and pretty much work in the medical field. Emergency response feel for For like the rest for life and so. My dad was Electrician so he worked for electric company. So that's what they did. What what impacted they end up having you in terms of the direction you end up going well. My mom Had raised me by ourselves because my dad and my mom got divorced when i was eight months. No my father wasn't really a part of my life growing up but the impact of my mom had me is like my mom because she was a paramedic. She worked twelve hour shifts. So i was still with my grandmother Monday through finding a civil my mom on the weekends and so i would. Just kind of like a hybrid. So my grandmother's neighborhood was like a really tough neighborhood. washington dc. This was late eighties early nineties and my mom lived outside of dc maryland. And a pretty like you know. Middle class neighborhood was nice. It was mixed white people black people in everything was like really cool around a but My mom when i had time to spend. What does she instilled in me. A good work ethic entrepreneurship in and being nice and respectful. Mom for the most part at least initially when i was younger mike. Thanks changes certain point. So i wonder what that point changes because i remember you. There's something that you said in the book. And this is one of those things like i. I look at basically took everything that a highlight and underline and put it into a document. But you said you know when you start from a place like division avenue. Life's fragile you don't get to make mistakes because you don't have a safety net but and you know when i when i read that and i was going through the book I remember going to school an probably. What was the worst neighborhood in a place called bryant texas and it was in seventh grade and it was by far the most dangerous area of town and i used to have to stay there late at night because i worked at the university. So it'd be terrified as this seventh grader after basketball practice but i also think that to some degree probably i have certain biases about that neighborhood. Ob just baked into how. I was raised by And so i wonder what about what about those kind of environments. Do you think that we have misperceptions about from you. Know media like my immediate thought was. Oh this is probably just like boys in the hood rob so like how accurate is stuff like that. Well i would look at it differently right a little bit. I would say. I mean you're right in the sense that folks have their biases about Neighborhoods like that. But i think what people don't think about is what would have conditions in policies that will put in place to make these neighborhoods. The waiting. Were you know so like police Name was policed in. You know people just being harassed by the police. That's what happened with. Like when i was growing up. Only come through his jump out. Pakistan folks didn't own a home folks Couldn't get jobs so there was a lot of stuff but these were like based off for policies put in place that kinda like creed atmosphere what he's neighborhoods dangerous so always important for people to remember that So that's something that you know. I don't think people think about no well. I mean you. And i were talking about this before we hit record here I remember dave chapelle talking about you know with your an african american men. Your relationship to law enforcement is fundamentally different than that of other people like you actually have a relationship of fear of the very people who are basically put in society to protect you absolutely absolutely Better than us especially at my neighborhood on weight it was just all black people and so only interaction while white people were police and when they would it would pat down. It wasn't like nice. It wasn't like it would ask. Holiday was so we grew up this way and then when stuck what happened in our neighborhood. I'd say shoot something like that and like folks like neighbors or call the police. It'd take a mike thirty five minutes. Get it twenty. Minutes or maybe. Sometimes they didn't even show up so this was a relationship with them growing up in. So is this like naturally like and then we see people on. Tv shot by police like all the time. So it's something like it's a survival mechanism to just be you know worried police.

But it's just very drastically. Not it's not. I mean i think there was like a way to go about it and she over shared for sure and can i just say the queen is a class. Act the statement that she put out the next day she says. I am so sorry that there was all this going on in the background. I'm totally paraphrasing here. But she just says it so perfectly like go read it. It's so good. And then she says i'll always be loved and they're always gonna be members of our family and we hope we can repair it and stuff like that. It's just so perfectly done. And i'm like man elizabeth. You're so great. Yeah so great. I'm dying to know. What william and kate i know. And that's another thing. Why couldn't they have done like a sit down there. i know they. She would probably have felt attacked. Like that's the thing. No one's on her side. But oprah is going to get on her side here and so that's where i feel like it could have panned out a little smoother or been had some more answers if it was based out of england with a reporter and kind of sharing. This is what's happening behind the scenes. We want it to go better. This is what we need. This is what happened but instead it was just a whole different thing. Yeah tell us if we're like off the mark here. I'm curious to know what you think about all of us so go hit us up. I know 'cause my sister who watched it was on the very other end earrings sympathetic to megan how tragic this is so unfortunate. This has happened to her. This is so sad. Where i don't know i just did not pick that up from the gecko and i didn't even go into it assuming that i was just excited to see what they'd say. Oh totally and i do think our age might play into it a little bit and what i mean by that is. We're harry's age and we watched. I watched the funeral. I i watch diana's funeral and we grew up watching the harry and william dynamic like teen bop and all of this stuff and so my loyalty is to the brothers right. It's not to meghan. And i think the younger generation. They don't really know the boys as much. They looked up to meghan right. Harry and i were both born in november of nineteen eighty-four. You go and i felt very connected to echo. I really did. I was such a fan girl. I mean i wrote in seventh grade. We had to write a famous person a letter like in like. I don't know we had a practice are writing user. I and i chose to write. Prince harry and yeah in seventh grade. Mr gray's climate you chose harry over williams. Oh yeah you did i did. I don't know. I always like drew was drawn to harry. I think william was like a babe then he was so cute and so class act. But i don't know. Maybe because harry was a regards. That's so interesting to me. I don't know lie. Hey that was our take on that. Oh heart barry. I know we've went all of you to just to live happily ever. After as harry always view. I will just say i mean i guess in closing. Kate is a hard act to follow. Because kate is perfection. I do adore. Kate middleton so much. I think she does. It could not have been any more perfect william and i and i get that. That's a hard thing to follow. Yeah hersher but for sure okay..

Looking for people to buy or a house was an uphill battle but cold calling. You're calling the people that can do what you wanna do. And i just want to highlight this story. You're about to tell us which is incredible started because instead of saying i guess i cancel houses. I'm only nineteen years old. What am i going to do. You said well.

Well we got lots to get into but we always begin the episode. Every time we have a first time guest the same way and that's the essence of the show. The the question. We always ask just like every rock song has a hook. That sucks you in rock fan has a moment whether it's a band performance a song or album that hook them on rock and roll. What was it for you. Wow that's a big question The thing that hooked me on rock and roll was. I saw kiss on the midnight special on my television. When i was in the seventh grade and i it was the equivalent. I'm sure jay of our older friends. When they saw the beatles on ed sullivan that was the equivalent of that moment for me. No one's ever asked me that question to tell you the truth You know. I grew up my my folks to this day man. Both my parents love music and so it was a very musical household. The radio was always playing in. Dad would buy vinyl records of perjury artists pop artists and but yeah that was when i felt like it was something that was specifically mind. You know my parents not care for kids. They played black diamond complete with this. You know the rising drum riser in the pyro and everything manages your that. Messed me up preordained. I think it put me on the path for sure. Your kiss was an inspiration for a lot of musicians. And i think it was just the the imagery you know the the faces and the explosions and all the stuff. That kind of just pulled you in you know. The music was great too. But it just had like this power over young kids. I mean i got exposed to kiss back in like the early eighties. And i always remember knowing of them in knowing what they look like before i heard their music and then i heard their music and then i was just hooked. Yeah you know. I you know. I'm i'm probably a little older than you. So you know that midnight. Special show man that would have been nineteen seventy seven grow. This was this was early. This was. I believe this was between kiss alive. One destroyer and You know it was cool. Because i had a group of friends at school that you know we were all kind of discovering rock and roll at the same time and i remember that year in school that no kid and leonard skinner. I'm from the south. And so you know sweet home. Alabama was already the national anthem for us. And so you know the musicality of a ban like skinner We love led zeppelin and You know not long after that. We really got into bands like rush pink. Floyd bad company was big call. Rogers greatest singer of all time. You know things like that. So that set the table for me. I guess jay and then the two big bands not long after that you know when i finally started going to concerts where we saw thin lizzy. Ironically i saw them in seventy nine and that was a game changer for me and The the next summer. I saw van halen for the first time and i was cooked like that's it. I'm i gonna play guitar. You know. I have friends who go to college and get a degree and and and pursued that actually and it wasn't until i had already graduated junior college that i really ever thought of even considering it to be possible to play music as living especially for women coming from such rural backgrounds. There was nobody from where i came from. That was a professional musician. You know so. It just didn't seem possible.

Dr. Jennifer Aaker and Naomi Bagdonas: "Humor creates a window into authenticity and trust."
"Cheddar. I'm really curious. Because one of the first example he said was she was kind of living this double life she was. You know this serious business professional by day and had this you know literally humorous lifestyle by night and weekends at. I'm curious gentlemen like in your studies. How common is that not necessarily common that people have you know a improv career on the side. But how common is it that people turn off some of their personality within the workplace. Such a good question you know with our students in even executives that we teach we find it know it to be incredibly common. In fact i would say that. Youtube seem to be exceptions to the rule. I think the only story is not only communist. I think there's a lot of reasons for that. We often believe that certain characteristics about ourselves like our sense of humor having some levity or even smiling or being a human have no place in the workforce because if we take our work seriously we should take ourselves seriously in a book. We dive into these four deadly myths associated with you mark and if you put the word deadly in front of it makes it sound more cornets. That's just a little scientific for you guys but the first one is you know the serious business daily math. That here's somebody has no place in the in the workforce or any place that takes yourself seriously but research shows that even just laughing has unparalleled effects on our chemistry and our behavior so it literally when you laugh together. It changes the chemistry of your rain to make you more prime connection more creative and more resourceful and more resilient stress very cafe at i in. It's really important to me to be around people that i can laugh with and i know you talk about it. Believe it's four different types of humor that that you sort of. Can you tell us what the four r. I wanted to gauge where we fit. Carl wants to know how funny she is. Yes of because. I have no problem saying i'm funny okay. The only described humor types. And then i'll take a whakatane now and carly all right. So we've got four humor styles the standup the magnet the sniper and the sweetheart so standups natural entertainers outgoing not afraid to ruffle feathers to get a laugh. Like to roast like to tease big personalities next is the magnet similarly outgoing but magnets tend to keep things positive warm uplifting. They avoid controversial. Humor the radiate charisma. They're the ones buying around of drinks at the bar while laughing next. We have these sniper so snipers are a little bit more introverted. And their style. Tends to be edgy sarcastic nuanced. so it's sort of they say they have an acquired taste and they're not afraid to cross a line in pursuit of laugh so really good at zerorez and with deadpan delivery. And then lastly we have sweetheart so again. A little bit understated in their delivery earnest and honest they again tend to use humor. That's more uplifting that brings people together. They would never make someone else the target of their job if they thought it might hurt feelings but they're not the ones that want the limelight and they're going to be on stage so those are four. Okay so this is. This is a best gas carly in the back of your mind. You should be thinking what you jan. Y'all as you should be thinking. What partly thing i got it. Okay all right so this is our best. Guess jandiyal you are likely a sweetheart and carly is part madinat and parts neighbor. Okay and when i say we i mean alex. Alex told assist so out on our team. Yeah alex get off camera. You need to be put on the spot now. Alex's terrified now yeah. I think that what's interesting about. This is my humor in the workplace is very different than my humor. I said i. I was gonna say that my humor style. Four the podcast or in the office is probably more sweetheart. But i think in in reality. It's definitely more sniper. Yes that is true. She's like midwest work muir bjork and carly. I don't know what this falls into but like any like seventh grade boy. Category link found. You guy humor okay. You always say that. Like i say that i like to eat like a child like i twelve year. Old boy Gushers stuff like that. Okay i think i am sniper. But i think at work i've probably do straddle i actually don't know which i'd straddle i think either stratas sniper in stand up or sniper polystyrene stand up. I would agree with that. I mean how often is that when you guys come across this. That humor types vary depending on what the audience yacht that. This is common actually at super healthy so in particular. it's really important to recognize. There's a powerful relationship between humor and status and so what we find. Is that as people get higher in status. Your humor style needs to shift and this is because one of the principles of of comedy is never punched down. Basically never make fun of someone who's of lower status than you and when particular we find for people who are senior executives in organizations is they tend to have more teasing biting edgy humor outside of the office but when they come into the office they really have to use humor. That's more uplifting. Because if they don't that people who are more junior on their team might take it the wrong way or might have hurt feelings so we often find that that's the case especially with senior folks and then the reality is just like anything else the appropriateness of what we say at home versus what we say at work is different. You know we have different responsibilities. We have different relationships with our colleagues than we do with our families. And so it's it's actually really good that you're not making all the jokes around the boardroom that you are around the dinner

And this is not my wheelhouse. But this i am excited to do and i'm excited to talk to you. I am too. I am looking forward to it. So let's get started talking about your soul in journey. Where does your sewing story begin. Oh goodness i grew up in the bahamas and my mom's sewed all the time and functionally though or if felt that way it was such an every day occurrence should the machine was setup. She would make my school uniform. She would make her clothes for work. She do home to core. Whatever we needed she would just whip it up and made it seem easy. I i remember some watching her. Do the pleats. My sister and i went to private school. And all skirts were pleated and she would just sit at the machine. No pattern no markings. Just follow the. Please fold aplly all the way around and had whip on the beltway spanned and ham up at it just seems so effortless and that's what sewing was for me. It was it looked effortless. It look utilitarian. It was functional. But i didn't appreciate it as a creative outlet. It was just something we had to do. It was cheaper for my mom to make our uniform so she did so. I appreciate it to some extent. But i didn't embrace it i did. I would whip up a backpack just for the heck of it. She would make my costumes for the productions. I was in a in drama. And i was in a clown through and she made my clown costumes clown true and sorry. I don't know how gonna be able to get past that. You must tell us. Don't know how you thought you would just gonna slide by the word clown troupe. In that wasn't going to say nothing so pleased small digression to tell us what the clown troupe is okay so i went to private school and that is not helping me learn about clowns. I know i did not realize that. Somehow clowning wasn't essential characteristic. But that's okay. I'll let you continue on with the private school and then through very complicated story is so i. One of my one of my classes was drama and his inner drama class and then one of our teachers who my homeroom teacher started a little getting together to do little skits and we do little gets performed the chapel and the assemblies that our school and then she started to do. She took over the drama production of the school and i got excited in seventh grade. I was in joseph on the mazing technicolor dreamcoat. I was in the how i at. My excitement for drama started there and threw out junior high and high school. She created a group call street lights. It was a drama ministry through and we would put on drama sketches our school and go to churches and travel around the schools in the bahamas and then ultimately part of that drama turned into a clown ministry where we would perform for younger kids in schools at parties and some of those parties actually funded trips to cuba and the uk in wales. Yes so we were doing clowning with lucrative was.

It's not that i was. I don't want my child to do well. We have no food and that that was. That was my reason am. When they shared their stories like that so powerful and then to share their story of of coming from homelessness poverty into working middle class livable wages and the pride that they have and to be able to share that part of the story It's just such a powerful piece. I think it's the only common form conference on the country that that really embraces the poverty. Peace and really shares that out to truly understand what is parents are going through right. May i learned so much about that. Worked at a mental health agency when being able to go into people's homes when we went to the home visits and see what these kids what their home lives were in the poverty level Astounding yeah and and just then headed to step back like oh gosh now. I understand why this kid is struggling so much and and then putting plans in place and working with the families to try to help this kid make it through seventh grade because he wanted to drop out you know or or similar stories so yeah another thing that i i've seen and it's it's painful and i don't have an answer but The way i kinda am able to keep in touch with someone alumni is. I have facebook. But i can tell by their pulse. You know things aren't going well or so on then do a private message to say. Hey what's going on simulate. You're going through a difficult time and i. I've got kids that that are working those minimum wage jobs with families and they're working really hard you know they. They really have overcome a lot and and they're getting laid off.

The joy of taking out the trash
"You might not know this just from looking at me by mike. Guess it from smelling me. Why are my favorite things to do. Is take out the trash. It's the laziest way to technically. Pare down your possessions. Because the one thing you can never do enough of in a small new york city apartment like mine is get rid of stuff. The stuff that are modern consumerist carbon powered culture makes us by endlessly and often for no reason. Guingona people never heard either roommate's family members that old lady who's been in your living room for weeks who is she anyway. No squatters allowed care if you're a ghost also not to brag but i've been micro decluttering since before. Marie kondo got big. In fact i've cut out your step of picking things up figuring out whether they spark join me because they already know what sparks. Join me throwing out trash. What kinda trash. Well i'll give you a clue. It starts with an ends with their. That's right it's a lotta hair. Don't try and picture how much you'll feel sick. And if you don't feel sick you haven't pictured enough. I shed like an instagram influencer. Sheepdog was decided for is the only thing holding her career back. We're all trying to reduce our carbon footprints and consumption so by throwing out trash. I also naturally mean recycling. And composting i to do both. In fact i once carried a take takeout container across half the city just to put in the right bin. Where's my inspiring bio-pic but then i learned recycling frequently isn't working even if we all separate out glass cans and cardboard a lot of stuff doesn't neatly fit into those categories paper envelopes lined with bubble. Wrap can't be recycled pizza. Boxes with grease stains can't be recycled memory from seventh grade. When i who am i kidding. All of seven gray can't be recycled. There's even a term for it aspirational recycling. at first. I thought that if you went to spin class last week so it should count for this week. To china. Used to import a lot of. Us's recyclables but they stopped accepting foreign garbage in two thousand eighteen as part of a pollution ban. Whatever happened to one countries. Trashes another country's treasure now a lot of us recycling goes straight to landfills the epa. Says that only ten percent of plastic has ever been recycled. Not that this is about me but this balloons my anxiety the size of the giant pacific garbage patch. We out in the ocean where we'll all eventually gopher next destination wedding. So if you're american how and your political representatives to work on this recycling issue and try to create less waste overall by reusing materials. Your stuff. I've been reusing in my life. Plastic bags salsa jars and old fights with my boyfriend. Now the next time i have to throw throughout the trash i can confidently ask. Hey can i use this loose ball of hair again. And you know what i probably can. In fact i'm gonna give it to that. All goes lady as a going away present. Thank you

There's no about fatherhood cher with. That's obviously not true whatsoever. My journey into this whole dad's space really really started when i was a kid. My mom my childhood was was pretty complex. My mom was married three times. My mom did the best. She could with what she had but she was. She was married three times every guy that she married guy that she dated was kind of the same guy you know kinda like there's usually some element of toxicity drugs alcohol and physical mental abuse. So i always say that. I spent half my childhood without a father. Figure the other half with some sort of toxicity going on. But what i can tell you just really quick story. Is mom biological father. Remarried in nineteen seventy-one. They had me and seventy five. They got divorced really quickly about. I was about nine months old. He completely split no recollection of whatsoever. When i was four my mom remarried and at that point my life. That's how i thought moms found dads they just go out and find ads and so this gentleman came into our life. They were married for six years. They got divorced. It was it was a really horrible bitter end. They got divorced. I have not seen him since fast. Forward two years later. I ran my biological father by mistake. I wasn't expecting it. We had a relationship for a handful of months. Was this twelve. Yeah so i was. I think i was in seventh grade at the time. We had a relationship for a handful of months. He's remarried had a two year old son. Another one on the way and then it just got to the point. I think for him at that. Point is life where it was too much and unfortunately that relationship ended and it didn't end well and i completely went in a direction of i emotionally over eight. I failed the eighth grade. A lot of really crazy things can happen. My mom remarried a few more a couple more times and then fast forward graduated from college was in my first profession. I'm sitting in the coffee shop at a meeting When i was thirty when you walk in to get their morning coffee my father my biological father who i hadn't seen since i was twelve and i won't go into how we connected but we did connect and here we are fifteen years later and we do have a relationship. I spend time with him actually pretty often two younger half brothers. He's still married to the same woman but the good that project data is really started. Because i was struggling terribly had at the time for boys now the time i had to had a four year old and a six year old. Didn't know what. I was doing with really frustrated. Short on patience short temper The good nap project. Unfortunately there's there's a part of me that's very shame to admit this but it really came on a on a dark night in a dark moment. Where my son who's twelve. Now he was four. He stepped out of line as any four year old. Would i don't blame him. It was my fault. I spanked me. Hit the ground. And i looked at him and i went to help him up and The look on his face was i felt like i was staring myself and i knew in that moment i was like i don't know what i'm doing but i'm gonna find out how to do this better and i'm tired of living with no direction with patients. Having a hot temper all my life is only my career. And it's only my career. Because i don't know how i don't know how to be a good husband. I don't know how to be a good father. And i just surrendered. I'm just gonna. I'm gonna surrender my ego here and i'm just gonna learn and it was at that point in two thousand thirteen. I started good. That project dot com. It was a blog. I don't know how many people know this. But get that project actually me. I was this project.
