• 10:03
  Speaker 1: two experts on the phone. Who talks about juicing, who

  Speaker 1: talks about plant based wellness products. Why is ra Sean
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: McDonald suddenly making this shift in his eating habits? It
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: is because he just is this better quality out, that
• 10:18

• 10:21
  Speaker 1: and all these different places where I go and get
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: products that are not in the feed by chemicals. What
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: do you what do you think that's making that shift
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: in me? Well, I that's why I'm asking you. I'm
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: actually curious. I don't know if it's just being you know,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: in conversation or reading things or just deploring and just
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: wanting to change. So normally it's most people's diet changes
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: come from ailments, you know, or issues that they have
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: and then they feel inclined to change their diets, so,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: you know, or just exposure or you know, just seeing
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: more of certain things of wanting to feel better. And
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: then after you eat and you know, taste and try
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: certain things, you notice how your body responds to it.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: So I guess you, you know, actually want more of that.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: So a lot of that sorts to happen. But I
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: don't really know your dynamic, like you know, why what
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Maybe it's the good feeling that it's good feeling. It's
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: a good feeling. And I would tell you this. I
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: would tell you this in eighteen. I was I've been
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: doing the show since seventeen, and I want to thank
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: you both for doing my show. And Morris Chestnut had
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: a book out. It was called it was a fitness book,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: and he had a and he had you could lose
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: ten pounds in ten days. And now you know, usually
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: when people come a watch, I'll read your books or
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: if you send me the tape I watched, what I
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: do not do is saying bag on interview, and so
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: so I said, you'll be cool, you know, let me
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: go and see if I can lose some weight. And
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: when you get on the radio, I would go, uh,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: hey man, wait, well I lost nine pounds when you
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: got on that, and so I've lost sixteen pounds since then.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: It's so it's so my my way right now. It's
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: like one ninety four okay, and uh one ninety four.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: This just this, this stays around there. And so now
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: I don't even do wait anymore. I just do a
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: lot of stretching. I do. I eat. I eat this
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: good lifestyle that you guys are talking about, and I
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: just won't let everybody know that what you guys are
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: talking about has made me feel better, has my you know,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: you know, everything flows a lot better for me. I
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: drink a lot more water. Is that what you guys
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: are preaching, Because that's what you were saying. The initial
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: statement to me styles shud stop it, stop it. That's
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: all you do. Stop it, Yeah, because what you're saying,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: what you're doing life and what you the time you
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: take out to do what you do, which is is
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: teach and have entrepreneurs on and young successful people and
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: older successful people, middle age successful people. So to preach
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: and us to push forward of success, you have to
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: want to be the best year you can be. So
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: you feel better with ian clean what you did. You
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: started the act of doing when you picked up that
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: book and you lost that ten pounds. That was the
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: act of you just talking about it, thinking about it,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: or doing stuff. You started doing things. And once you
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: start doing things, and you start subconsciously and consciously either
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: or sometimes it's both. Sometimes it's one. Um you just
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: start really saying, hey, I like how I feel, I
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: like how I'm looking, or I like the fact you
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: know that my energy feels a certain way. And so
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: that act of doing leads you to keep one in
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: the search and do better. And that's what this whole
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: thing about wellness is about. It's not about being us
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: being goal rules are super knowledgeable people. It's about us
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: wanting our communities better. And that starts with feeling better.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: Because once you feel better, or my wife feels better,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: and you tell your wife and my wife tells me that,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: we tell look a look at the teller on and uncle,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: that leads to a healthier community all around and a
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: healthier dress besides you feeling healthy, you want people all
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: around you, so you just kind of want to spread
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: a word about feeling okay, like you know what I mean,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: just bringing balance to your diet. It's not about us
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: going hey, don't eat this, don't eat that. I eat
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: all plants. But I'm gonna tell you first before you
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: do anything. Brother, I'm not gonna tell you just hop
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: both beefs, but I will tell you go to Whole
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: Foods and know where that beef is coming from. You know,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: if it's grass fed, no, if it's not grass fed,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying. If I ask you
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: a serious question, like okay, I'm comfortable with I know
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: my I'm going to Whole Foods. I'm gonna get my plants.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I didn't grow the plants myself, so the plants are
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: tampered with two so I gotta wash you. But I
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: feel safer with a tampered with plant than you do
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: with a tamper with cat or chickens. Like you know
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I'm pretty sure you would feel the
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: same way too. So it's just about one of the
• 14:47

• 16:59
  Speaker 1: tell you something about what I love when people are gifted,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: like he's gifted because he you know, he you know
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: he you know, because he's performed so many and crowds.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: And it's beautiful when you're a performer because when you
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: walk on stage, you don't know who's out there, so
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: you have to shape people. You know, they bought the ticket,
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: but you know, if they had a bad day, a
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: good day, off day, you know, they may walk out
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: of their girlfriend sitting with him, don't want to be
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: with them. Both we're about to leave it. You don't
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: know what's going on. You're out there just performing. And
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: so when he comes on myself, he don't know me.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: We talked about maybe we met two a couple of
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: times to do, but he took it upon himself, say look, brother,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: you know so it's beyond the juices for life. It's
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: beyond farmer farmer for pharmacy for life. This is about
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: what you want to do with yourself. That's the message

• 17:47

  Speaker 1: That's O T T E R dot Ai. Hi. This
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: is Sean McDonald. You know, this is money making conversation,
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: having a good time talking to individuals who are successful
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: individuals who had moments in their life where they were
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: frustrated trying to achieve their success. But more importantly, David,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: they are achieving it. And when they achieve it, there's
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: no guarantees there's going to continue. That's where the hard
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: work comes in. And when I talk about entrepreneurship, I
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: talk about entertainment. I always tell people that because of
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: social media, everybody is is a brand. Now everybody is
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: an entrepreneur wants social media hit it. And so you
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: have to respect and you have to under and make
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: it relatable and understandable. That you have to understand that
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: what you present to people is what people are gonna define.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: You ask styles, Come on now, now you came on
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: the show, this this book, The Eternal hike. Um, you
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: know the reel apologize. Yeah, okay, apologize. Um, tell me
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: about the book before we started asking questions. Okay, Well,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: the book is a culmination of a lot um Our
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: daughter passed away in from suicide and um, that was
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: my firstborn. He styles this her stepdad. Um, so you know,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: just that whole situation in itself and dealing with that
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: and trying to process the whole situation. For me, Um,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: the best, the best way and the best outlet for
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: me was to to write it, to write it out.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: And UM, you know, through that a lot of you know,
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: it's just a lot of self healing, a lot of
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: self understanding, a lot of self love. Again, just trying
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: to get to that higher self. So with that, you know, um,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: being in a space of wanting to heal and be
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: open and honest and you know, get through it. So
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna going to certain sections of the
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: book that that I just took a little lines out
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: and one of the first lines I grabbed was, I
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: am writing this book because you believe your story can
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: help others love themselves more. You can help them be
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: kind hearted to themselves and have more patience. Yeah, when
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: you when I when I read that statement, when you
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: say love themselves more, what do you mean when you
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: say that? Okay, well, and that there's a lot in
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: regard to that. Um, I don't think a lot of
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: people we take the time to understand how far they
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: come in life and how much how many obstacles that
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: they've actually you know, you know, trying from, and they
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: just you know, just they ourselves off and you know,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: keep it, keep it moving for the most part. So
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: if you can just take some time to appreciate yourself,
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: how farts come, you can just kind of love yourself more.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: For me, but that's how it works for me. Well,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: I think I think that understanding. Yeah, I think it's
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: important that on this show that you both of you
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: guys have a defined voice, a very defining voice, and
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: vote for your very articulate and both of you guys
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: have had enough success in life to be having an
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: opinion and and share it. And that's what and that's
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: what I felt the book was sharing. That's why I'm
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: asking you different questions because I want to make sure
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: when you leave this interview that you understand that you
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: both are a blessing and you are a blessing in
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: with this book because thank you. Let'm just tell you why,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: because of the fact that you know, even though I'm successful,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: I will doubt myself because what happens is and Styles
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: can agree some sometimes you can't go to tell other
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: people moments of weakness. You can't tell other people. You
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: can't talk to people by failure because people look at
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: you different. They look at you different. You can't show
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: weakness when you're considered a success because people are looking
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: at you different. There treat you different. And so it's
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: sometimes that's the part where you you start questioning yourself
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: and you can question your every path and every decision,
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: and that's where you that's where the love part comes in.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: And I took out of this book not only love yourself,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: but have people around you that you're comfortable enough to
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: tell them when things aren't going good. Are you confused
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: by something? That is of the strongest takeaways that I
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: had this book. That's great, Yeah, and I agree. I
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: agree with that. As far as vulnerability part, that is
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: that is true because Styles actually said he said is
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: something he couldn't do himself. So hem he got Style
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: still be QUI man I got I was I was,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: I was letting. I was actually just letting instead of win.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: And I was thinking about it because it just put
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: me in a place because we we we as businessmen,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: focus on business and family, you know, so reading from
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: reading a book for me, I also got to take
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: that out because even doing what with what we do
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: with juices for Life, pharmacy for life, music, reading the
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: book made me be able to accept being more vulnerable
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: to my past, you know, to the things that kind
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: of you know, carved me and maybe who I am
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: it maybe kind of look at myself more. And you know,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: it shows to love somebody and be with them twenty
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: five years and I know how intelligent they are, but
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: to see their their work and their artwork make you
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: reflect on your own past was was something touching for me.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Especially the pault was saying, I couldn't really, I'm not
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: one just by nature to show weakness. So that a
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: book for how to be that open, and it showed
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: me that being open and accepting pain and accepting the
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: things that that hurt you really actually make you very
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: much stronger. Like you hear it. You hear it in philosophy,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: coal movies, and you you hear the master tell the
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: student that, but to get it from your wife and
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: to actually see it done in person is it's more
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: eye open again especially with like I said, well, what
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: we do we believe in in wellness, like our brands
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: are wellness. So it was that's something that made me
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: more well. Like I think we think healing and food
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: and it's it's success and all of that is just
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: financial or with food wise, but we don't often deal
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: what I sold enough on a realistic level, like she said,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: loving yourself enough to understand who you are, what you are,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: what you've been through and ether like it pretty much
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: very it taught me a lot, especially with it being
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: my wife, you know, so that it was just odd
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: that I took the same thing that you took out
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: of it, and even more over to day and my wife,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: you know, wow, this is the power couple I got
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: on the phone will be today articulating and defining, defining
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: the path that we all should go down. And so
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: when I when I look at uh, you know, I'm
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: writing a book. And it's interesting when you write a
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: book because you start remembering things that you had actually forgotten,
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: or you start remembering things that you don't have no value,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: but it turns out to be important to other people.
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: You know, it's really crazy. It's really crazy when you
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: you know, when people start sitting down, they started to
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: ask you question. You go, oh yeah I did that.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, oh I forgot about that. But but that
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: part that you forgot about shaped you. Yeah. Yeah, and
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: it's really and and so when and so when I
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: started reading your book, it was like it was like
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: it was like we're gonna start at a traumatic moment
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: and then we're gonna we're gonna tell a story and
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: move forward. And it was such a beautiful journey for me.
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: You know, sixteen got your d d talk about your
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: boy Fred Mike. You know, even though you know sudden
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: when styles came in your life after after board friend
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Mike went away, then he took it on responsibility when
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: he called him dad, when she called him daddy and uh,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: when she was six years old. That moment right there,
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: I thought, because it was written in the book, was
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: an important moment in both the relationship. But how did
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: it impact your styles? When she called you daddy? Um,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: it was beautiful, it was it was shocking because you've
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: been calling you David all the way up to that
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: point a long time coming. It was a long time coming.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: It was um was it was a beautiful thing. I
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: think when um, when you when you step into a
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: child lifeful a woman with a child already, it's a
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: fine line you have to walk, especially you know there's
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of things involved, um and you want to
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: you know me, I've had a step father before us.
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I know how it feels like, you know what I mean.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: So I just always wanted to be cool, let her
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: know that she has so in there as a parent
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: that loves us. But that's not stepping boundaries and just
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: it's forcing forcing the way. So for me it was
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: successful because it was the opposite of what I had
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: always seen and always seen done, and it was approach.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: I think it was beautiful for me as a young
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: father and uh young fiancee husband to be because um,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: the real, the real truth of it is, we would
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: we would We would both compare how we grew up
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: to the things we thought were good, the things we
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: thought were bad, things we thought we shouldn't do and
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: we should do, and things we said we would do
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: totally different because how it made us feeling. So that
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: was one of them, and it worked out to be
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: beautiful and successful and we had a super dobon like
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And and that's what I'm
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: saying is just moments like that that I kept pulling out,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: you know, in the in the in the book. You know,
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: you know, I thought it was a great moment when
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: you talking about how your dad said get out, get out,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: you know, and you know, because that was just that's
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: that's a dad. That's a dad saying, hey, you know
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: you want to be grown. I'm gonna show you grown.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna show you grown. Yeah. Um, you know a
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: lot of things and they are relevant. Certain things are
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: relevant to others, you know, more than others. Um. Because
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: to me, just even reflecting back on it, that that
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: that a little six year old thing was huge in
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: my life in terms of her calling you know him daddy.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: But you know, to a lot of people is probably irrelevant,
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: but it is a real kind of significant point. You know,
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: it is very very significant, especially as um first step dad,
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: especially for me, you know so too. That's why it
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: was written. You know, It's it's all about you know,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: emotional growth, physical growth, financial growth, and wonder line that
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: stood out for me was like well, you know, a
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: man's styles started growing his profile as a writer. He
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: went from bad boy money to rough ride of money.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: It was coming in left and right. And you know,
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: if people don't understand money, you know, we especially the entertainment,
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: money comes in ways. You know, it might not be
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: that steady check now what you because being entrepreneurs you
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: can expect steadiness. But in entertainment, you know, big check
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: five hunt thou dollars, million dollars to million dollars can
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: come your way and guess what, maybe six months later
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: another check may not come or or smaller, much smaller
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: check comes and so when it comes in, sometimes you
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: don't know what to do with the money, but spend it.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: How did you because I remember I had I had.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I was leasing the uh G, I was leasing the
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: cl or Mercedesy, I was leasing like three cars then
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: because I because I could lease him, because I was
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: making that kind of money. How did you jump? And
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: I was much older than you guys, y'all were young.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: How did y'all translate that ability to mature with your
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: money and move forward? Because one of the things you
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: did was by a townhouse. It's three bare room, three
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: bad townhouse. Were one of the best investments you made
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: early on. But tell us about the journey into the
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: money and evolving as young adults. Okay, well that was
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: one of our first I guess our wisest person purchases
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: townhouse because before then, and in between then and all
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: around then were screwed up. Okay, with a lot of
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: a lot of messing up, a lot of trial and error.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: We learned from and um, you know, because it's not
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: it fluctuates the money. It's not really consistent in terms
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: of in the business, you know. It's yeah, and that's
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: part of what, you know, why we actually started the
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: other businesses because we needed more consistency, you know. So, um,
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: just taking advantage of your brain, taking advant of brain.
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: So let's let's look. I don't want to shift I
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: want to shift the book out a little because I
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: definitely want to give a little bit of attention to
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: the Juices for Life and the Farmer Force for Life,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: because these are not oneerstand locations. These guys are in
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: multiple locations. Talk to us a little bit about that,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: and I go I ride styles with Jusice for Life,
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: and now I come back with you with Farmer for
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: pharmacy for life. As you say, it's about full got you,
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: so tell us about juices for lifestyles. Juice for life man.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: We um, we like chance for healthy folks, like you
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: know what I mean. We just started to bring up,
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: Um we have four locations in the job God willingly,
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: um will have a location in every state one day. Congratulations. Um.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: We just we just we just wanted to bring something
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: to to the neighborhoods that we knew a food desert
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: as they say, you know, um, when you come from
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: our background where you see just looking stores, training these
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: food stores, fast food stores, and we just wanted to
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: provide something that people could come in and get some balance,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: touch back to their roots. Things. You know your mom
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: told you apple day keeps the doctor away. You know,
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: always eat the eat the veggies on your plate. So
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: those are things we felt we're lost within our community.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: So we felt like it would be just smart for
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: us to show people away because people are often you know, um,
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: like you say, we like nice things, man, like we
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: we love I love nice stuff. Yeah, I love nice stuff.
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: But being a wrap that, we started noticing that people,
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: you know, they tend to look at music, they tend
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: to look at Instagram social media and not really pay
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: attention to the inside of their body. And we like
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: nice things. So we want to kind of live as
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: long as we can, and we want to prevent things
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: that you know, Black people don't go to the doctor
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: and get enough insurance in the hood. So we just
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: wanted to provide somethinghere go, hey, it's preventative measures. Uh,
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: ask some balancing in life m hm um, and you
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: could come sit down and meet with different people from
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: different communities around the neighborhood and have a good talk
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: over something healthy like you know. So that was our
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: goal and we've accomplished it, and we got a lot
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: more to do, a lot more accomplished than to do,
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: and by the grace of that, I will get it done.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: And if not those we hope we lay out enough
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: blueprint for people who are don't following and just take
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: it after. It's amazing the good your turn. Yeah, that's okay.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: It's the pharmacy for Life. So that pharmacy with an
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: app's basically just Juici Life sister company, um, basically the
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: same same method. But what we're trying to do is
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: basically there's a lot of people that don't have health
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: insurance and we're aware of that. Um, we try to
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: cater to those people. We try to cater to uh
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: the how should I say, Well, I don't want to
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: say it's just like that. But anyway, people that don't
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: articulate this whole interview interview to talk about that company,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: she stepped off. Now he's stepped on, sped off. Um.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: But basically, yeah, Pharmacy for Life is just you know,
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: since their company. We have vitamins, we have supplements, we
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: have we have basically to keep your immune system together strong.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: We have you know, we have bladder rock root, we
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: have black seed oil, we have female we have Bouertops supplements.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: A lot more of coming, a lot more coming. You know,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: I really want to Um, you know, I have a
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: twenty two year daughter and I'm going to drifting back
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: to the book now because I definitely want to let
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: you know how that book affected me. Okay, I'm gonna
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: slow down and in here so you know, and you know,
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: the nightmare is that I would have to bury her.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: And that's a nightmare that both you two have experienced.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: And that's a nightmare that I felt emotionally when I
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: read the book, especially when I was able to read
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: about your journey, because like it's like it started, it started.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Each chapter was a growth, an experience, how she grew,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: how she lived, what she she was, beautiful, she was,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: she was popular, she was always active. People always were
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: coming to her, you know, So no signals, no signs
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: when you wrote this book. The ultimate message was we
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: talked about in the beginning, and I'm just telling you
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: how I feel. Um. I try to talk to my daughter. Uh.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: I try to not cut off. And when you know,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: when when we have a business mean I can be
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: on the call with a with a client and her
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: number comes through our answer. I've always done that because
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: I've raised her on the I've raised her. My mom
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: was raised her. I've raised her on the phone. Okay,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: I I have some clips that I want to give
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: her one day when when she used to just call
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: lead notes when she was four or five and six
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: on the phone. I kept them. I kept there the messages.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: So I know the impact of a loss, but a
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: bigger impact of your children and you burying im and
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: the what else. And one of the things that you
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: said earlier early on was that you didn't want the
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: drama or the trauma to slow your growth. Yes, Um, basically,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: what I mean by that is that's such a a shot,
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: you know, that's such a big heavy blow. And from
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: what I've seen from you know, past you know experiences
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: and and just you know other situations that it's it's
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: really cycling. It can really be that much that people
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: cannot move forward. And I mean, and that's how I
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: felt initially when it happened. I did feel that's how
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: heavy it was. I felt like there was just no tomorrow,
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: there was no moving forward. Um. But I'm very I'm
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: also very spiritual, so just in doing some deep work
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: and trying to have a real great will to want
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: to move forward, and knowing that this situation was there
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: to kind of break me into something else. I don't
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: want to say be broken broken into something else, you know. Um,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: I kind of used that, and knowing that I've had
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: other experiences not as bad, but that will be most
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: likely the worst. But I just know, like I have
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: to keep moving forward. It's just that I just I cannot, Um,
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: I can't stop, and all those things, you know. Book
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: described to unbreakable ball between mother and daughter on side
