• 2:32
  Speaker 1: you know, me starting out and tonight because we don't
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: know Sasha, And I'm not saying that negative because sometimes
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: people they jump to the end of their story. You
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: have such a great story. Like I said something in
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: your credits, your mom was a fashion designer. Talk about
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: your mom and her influence that led you to who
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: you are today because technically you went into the medical field.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: You felt that was gonna be your life for the
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: hours a week taking care of people, but you picked
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: it out of that. So let's talk about your mom's influence.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Ain't going to medical school and while in medical school
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: medical school with to college and got your degree as
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: a therapist, and talk about that old experience with your
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: mom leading to that. Yes, absolutely so, my mom is
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: a huge influence on while I decided to go with entrepreneurship.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: She was a fashion designer and she she loved it.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: She loved it, but I think for me, she wanted
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: the stability, you know. So she you know, encouraged me
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: to go to school and you know, get a degree
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: and things like that. So but as a kid, I
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: it was already ingrained in me. You know, all of
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: these fabulous you know, fabrics and silhouettes and things. So
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I'm just like, I loved it. And even in high school,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I was voted best stressed. I was, you know, in
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: the fashion club. We did fashion shows and things like that.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: So that was just a part of my outlet, like
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: my creative outlet, and and we just had fun doing it.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: So Um, as a child, she would create, um, wedding dresses,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: prom dresses, especial with Agel. She even made her own
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: wedding dress. So it's all the creativity and everything has
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: always been there. So um, you know, growing up, she's like,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: you know, always encouraging me to go to school, which
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: is good. And she's now she's a nurse. She's an
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: I see you nurse as well, so it's kind of
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: following her footsteps. Um My grand both of my grandmothers
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: are also nurses as well. So um, you know, they
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: just like the stability for me just in case, because
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: you know, being an entrepreneur. Being an entrepreneur is is hard,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: you know, and you don't have that stability, and that's
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: actually what drives me. So when I was in college
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: and I would want extra money to do things, you know,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: other than pay tuition and things, so I would sell
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: my stuff on eBay and um, like anytime I needed
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: to get extra money and I didn't necessarily want to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: work an extra ship, I would sell stuff and you know,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: model it and you know, set it up on my
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: little I had like this area with you know, the lighting,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: and I would you know, take all kinds of pictures
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: and stuff. So then like like T shirts or time,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I was such a like I'm just like such a
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: fashioned person that I would like stalk sales. So if
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: it was a sale going on, I would get something
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: on sale and then get extra coupons and things on it.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: If it was like a super cool item or if
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: it was a really popular item, I would get those
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: and then you know, since it's limited, people would want it,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: you know, and I would have it. So I would
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: have those limited edition pieces and know how highly covedent
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: they were, and people was just like, you know, knocking
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: down my door, like, oh my god, I neither do
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: you have this in another size? Can you get more?
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: So I knew at that time that this could be
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: a business for me, you know, but I was still
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: a little bit nervous to do that. So I still
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: kept going to school and everything. But you know, with
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: the you know, in the weekends and when I didn't
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: have school, I mean when I didn't have school but
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I didn't have work, I was just ready to take
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: off the scrubs and put on something cute. And people
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: would always ask me, oh, well, what'd you get that
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: from the same how they would, you know, be on
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: eBay because you said something that was really important about
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: your grandmother and your mom. They would there, your mom
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: is currently your nurse, you and your grandmother was a nurse.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: And then you went into a medical align field, that's
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: a therapist. Okay, So and I know they're dealing with COVID,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Well you are tell them about your experience and their
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: experience and dealing with COVID in the reality, because you
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: know that's a that's a portion of this country. Don't
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: take COVID very seriously and don't take mask wearing very seriously.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: It is very important. You know, I'm very involved still
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: with my UM. I'm still licensed as a respiratory therapist.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I haven't given that up, UM. But you know, my mom,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: being a nurse, she deals with it every day. You know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: she's she luckily, thank god, she's been safe throughout it
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: because she is very, very careful. But she wears a mask.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: She wears a mask every day at work all day.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: It's not you know, taking it off and putting it
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: back on, because you know, it still does linger in
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: the air and you may get a whiff of it
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: as soon as you take your mask off, you know,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: especially in the hospital setting. So every day she's exposed
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: to that and it and it concerns me. But I
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: do know that she's you know, really safe. UM. But yeah,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of her co workers have gotten it. It's real.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I've I've I've had you know, people that I know
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: got it. And you know, I keep seeing all these
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: different you know Instagram people and um, you know, even
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: people in the news that's fashing it. It's it's real
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: and you have to be diligent to not get it.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: Now and this was something I wanted interest in your conversation.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: I try to listen when people are talking. You was
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: talking with your mom and she was a fashion designer
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: and now she's a nurse. And then will you say
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: how why would you say the importance of social media
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: has enabled you to pivot out of being in the
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: medical field into the fashion design field and be successful.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: How important is your social media? Um? Social media is
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: huge because that is one of the biggest outlets out
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: there to get anything that you want to do. Like
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: but Instagram, um, YouTube, let's see um, you know, Facebook,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: any all of these social media is is very important
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: to your business, if you ask me, because a lot
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: of times that's where people just you know, scroll and
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: and you know they'll just they'll just find you. You know,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure how these people find me sometimes because
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I post like where they share your post, they like
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: your post, I go to your I went in to
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: all your feed line. And first of all, if you're dynamic,
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: you're you're very attractive, and you're clothes. You know, they're
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: not for everybody. And that's a positive statement. They're daring,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That's right, everything it's not
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: going to be for everybody, right, right right, if you're
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: willing to, you know, take a risk and get out
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: your comfort zone. Let's sit back up. This is not
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: this is not risk Gate clothes. So I'm just wanting
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: to know this is this is different church either. But
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: but this is like, you know, if you if you
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: are a fashion confidence, you want to see something unique, electic,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: like the word I messed up in your intro eclectic,
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: different and shows your shape, your your your your body,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: and you're I'm afraid to show and and and show
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: people that you feel good about yourself? Did you feel
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: you look good? And you will lay everybody when you
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: walk in the room. You want to take control of
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: the room. Well, she got the pieces for you, okay, exactly.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: And I have a lot of oversized things, and that
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: was also what I think attracted people to my store
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: because I have so many oversized items. Like even like
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: something right now that I have on this is actually
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: like two sweaters and one so it's like one you
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: see one side, it's a puncho, so I can decide
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: to put the other top on top of here. So
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: just like things like that, that's really unique that you
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: can kind of switch out of there and you know,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: have fun with for one sleep punch out and then
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: it's a shirt underneath. So things like that. I was
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: trying to figure out what was going on. That's what's
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: going on. I see, I see its full white on
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: the right. That's this color. Yeahs like a beautiful knitted
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: type designed with three white buttons in the middle. And
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: it's like a short top. Okay, And she says one
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: sleeve like a punch to the right. It almost feels like,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: you know, a bullfighter if I want to say, if
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: I just say what you would look like she's like
• 11:17

  Speaker 1: T E R dot Ai talk about you as an
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: entrepreneur you know, but like I said, uh, you still
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I love the fact that you still certify respiratory. Third,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: you know, I think that if you have a degree
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: and you have something that you can put on your wall,
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: maintain ownership of that. You know, it's very hard. We're
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: so happy and then be said five years now you go,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: I should still be certified because it's a good story.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: It's a good story to tell about your career. To
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: say you steal license, you licensed to save lives. Let's
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: be real about this, you know, and you're not licensed
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: to for it to be your b plan. You're not
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: going back, but it's something it's part of your legacy,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: your your education that you that you spent hours and
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: years to accomplish. Maintainer. I admire that. Now now you're
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: not branding, you know how, Let's let's let's break down
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: this conversation a little bit. Brand talk about that. What
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: is the brand of Sasha? So with branding, I feel
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: like you have to be authentic, completely authentic, completely you.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: So the vault is me, you know, So I'm giving
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: pieces of myself to to whoever is wanting some basically,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: you know, to mean as far as my creativity and
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: and I just like I said, I'm so grateful that
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: people see my vision and they're like willing to take
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: risks with their fashions. So with branding, you have to
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: stay true and authentic to who you are, because after
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: a while, it's gonna show like if you're not like
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: you know, you were the same, you were this person
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: at first, and then you really couldn't keep up that facade,
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: and then next thing you know, like things are not
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: the same, or you know, you're gonna end up being exposed,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's just better to
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: just be yourself and just just you know, just who
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: you said, You've said it, you know, in the sense,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: to be with yourself, be authentic, be consistent. That's true,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: right there, Be consistent because I would tell people you
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: can fake it. They heard that turn fake it till
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: you make it. That doesn't work it in social media
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: to me, because if it's gonna play itself out and
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: you're gonna lose your followers and lose what you're saying,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: your authenticity, you have to be all and you have
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: to be consistent. That's so that's the term I always
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: use them when I'm talking about branding, talking about marketing,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: is that your idea if you want to push it
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: out there. You can't push it on Tuesday and forget
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: to do it until two weeks later and then go, Okay,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: where's my reaction now? But you have to be conse
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: stuff for sure. Let's talking about let's talking about you.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: You know your fashion, you was inspired by your mom.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: We know you're smart, we know you're beautiful. How do
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: we talk about the the the actual brand, actual clothes,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: the actual product. How does that go about being created?
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: And are you tied to a distributor or what? How
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: does that work? No, I actually have several that I
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: work with, so you know, you got to mix it
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: up a little bit because, uh then a lot of
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: people will start following you, and uh like other brands
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: will start following you and just com and doing every
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: single thing that you're doing right and that are doing
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: their own head. So I have to mix it up.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: So that's what I do. It's you know, it's I
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: have people from all over the world that I work with,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: and it just keeps it mixed up, keeps it spicy,
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: but also still maintains the integrity of the vaul and
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: what I'm trying to express. Uh, as far as you know,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: creative to wise uniqueness and things like that. So yeah,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: it's hard, and that's a full time job in itself,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: just looking for the merchandise and sourcing the things that
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: I want to put in the store, for sure, So
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: you have to going every day. I'm branding you now.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: Put it in the vault, not the store. Put in
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: the vault. It's a funny thing about you know. I
• 20:29

  Speaker 1: fashion this seasonal. You know you you know what you're
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: doing the summer, you can't do in the fall. With
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: you doing the phone, you can't do in the spring. Okay,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: what what are we looking for? What? What? What? What? What?
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: I did you have on the world of fashion that
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: you're gonna bring to you know, to the ladies. Well, I,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: like I said, I'm always turned in, So I'm always
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: looking at trends and I don't usually hollow trends that
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: I'll look at them to kind of see what they're
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: wrection in the world is going. And of course, so
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: I'm so aware of this now that trying not. I
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: love Dann Rash. You know, I've been doing interviews all
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: the oldest countries. My Instagram follows on fire and he
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: called it um um dad um um. Oh my gosh.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: So and I just anything that's different is going to
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: catch my eyes. So anything depending on um, you know,
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: like you said, the season, but summertime, I'm gonna make
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: sure that you know, it's gonna be nice, cool colors, cotton,
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: organic cottons and everything is definitely very important because you
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: want to stay cool and cute. So I try not
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: to do a lot of synthetic famprics and stuff in
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: the summer and things that's also gonna camouflage things that
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: you may not be somewhere ready for, you know. So
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: that's what I because because all the time I'm not
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: somewhere The Vault by Sasha is it isn't your store?
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Or is the People's store? What is it? It is?
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: It's the people's store, Okay, it's it's it's the people's
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: store for sure. But it's my my vision, my vision, yeah,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: or the or what I want the people to wear
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: or because because that's what a lot of people can get.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Because you're so you you have an opinion, and which
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: is good because in fact, you gotta have an opinion
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: because your opinion has to be able to cut through
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: the clutter the noise what people should wear and should
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: not air. And also you have to be um confident.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: And that's why I said, I'm saying as a buyer,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: she's a confident person because she's going in saying, you
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: know something like that top you have on I'm telling
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: it's fantastic. That's a beautiful top two. And anybody who's
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: watching the video, I know it's plays back on podcasts.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: If you can get to my YouTube channel to see
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: this top Shao is outstanding? Is this topic of viral
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: this it's really great, It's really it's really can walk
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: in you know you you're a nightclub. Look, you know
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: you can you can wear that in church right there.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: That's that's a church topic. Absolutely. See she she's going
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: to church. I'm telling when you get a top that
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: you can at the church. In the nightclub, I'm talking
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: about Cairl. You know you're coming from nightclub at three
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: clock in the morning, you tie, you just fall asleep
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: in your bad you just get on up and go
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: to churches, praise the Lord in the nightclub. Look and
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: nobody would know, Oh my god, nobody was telling you
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: and that's the thing. I don't have a lot of
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: provocative clothes in the Vault. So, like I said, it's
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: oversized things, it's cool silhouettes, it's patterns, mixed prints, things
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: like that. So it's definitely wearable in so many different circumstances. Well,
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: I've already told you, Okay, the Vault by Slashing, you
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: know she's gonna she's gonna turn it out in one
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: she's already turned out on Instagram, is on fire. And
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: I asked that question because I wanted to know, because
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: you know, the Vault by Sasha is a clothing line
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: design for the people. But now you can't said clothing lines, accessories,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: you know, tops, swimwears all these things that make you
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: look good and feel good. And she also has the
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: clothes that you know, if you don't feel good about
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: certain parts of your body, you can. She has fashion
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: that can hide a little thing to make you still
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: look like you've got it going on. And when you
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: walk in that room, you know, every thing is still flowing,
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: everything is still rolling right, left and right. And she's
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: oversized clothes, full fury clothes. So these are things that
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: you could look at in the Vault by Sasha and
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: walk away with a smile on your face. I want
• 28:11

• 31:01
  Speaker 1: but they had to go the safer route, more of
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: the guarantee. And that's what they did. And there's no
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: disrespect for what they're doing and what they because they
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: have enabled us to walk through the door and win,
