5:41
Speaker 1: not available. I'm available and after the sea with y'all,
5:45
Speaker 1: So hit me up. And when I look when I
5:48
Speaker 1: look at the resume, man, and and all these different roles.
5:53
Speaker 1: You know, there's some comedy thrown in there, there's drama,
5:56
Speaker 1: there's a there's there's films. How do you prepare? I
6:00
Speaker 1: was talking a good friend like yesterday, So I mean,
6:02
Speaker 1: say Clifton Pile and you know, you know, keep the
6:05
Speaker 1: pile and you know he's another one these guys. Just
6:08
Speaker 1: you know, you squitch your eyes and you go. Because
6:11
Speaker 1: we was on this was I was doing a commercial
6:12
Speaker 1: shoot and then he came up. Was talking and then
6:15
Speaker 1: somebody said, that guy looks familion. Just keep staring at him,
6:21
Speaker 1: Just keep staring. You're gonna figure it out. I mean,
6:24
Speaker 1: it's safe thing with you. I'm should you get that?
6:26
Speaker 1: A lot people go, he looks for million, because I
6:30
Speaker 1: know you will. Will we in the penetration together. You
6:37
Speaker 1: don't work here, we here, we go to high school together,
6:42
Speaker 1: right right. I just got just got one away. We
6:45
Speaker 1: were in the meetings together, right, I just got down
6:48
Speaker 1: like two days ago. It's always you know, I mean,
6:52
Speaker 1: it's all good though, bro, Just you know they figure
6:55
Speaker 1: out in a minute. I say, that's really good because
6:59
Speaker 1: because you're I've been pigeonholed for a certain character. You
7:02
Speaker 1: know that you you know you play a gang store,
7:05
Speaker 1: you play a mean how, you play an abusive father,
7:08
Speaker 1: you play a drug dealer. You've done it all, my man. Yeah,
7:12
Speaker 1: what do you mentally prepare for that? Well? I I
7:16
Speaker 1: think with with each with each role, I really try to,
7:21
Speaker 1: um find the the core of each one of those characters.
7:27
Speaker 1: I never I never approached a bad guy or a
7:30
Speaker 1: good guy or a hero from the perspective of having
7:34
Speaker 1: judgment about them, because you know, yeah, the person who
7:41
Speaker 1: is is the bad guy. From their perspective, it is
7:44
Speaker 1: not bad. It's not a bad guy, you know. They're
7:47
Speaker 1: just everything they do is they feel as justified, you know,
7:51
Speaker 1: by some code or by you know, by their own
7:56
Speaker 1: belief systems. And so I try to I try to
7:59
Speaker 1: find that leaf system for that character and and bring
8:04
Speaker 1: it without judgment, um you know. So that's that's that's
8:09
Speaker 1: the basically I prepared, you know. And then there's the
8:12
Speaker 1: you know, the duanswers, what you know, what is the
8:15
Speaker 1: character sound like, what is the body language or what
8:18
Speaker 1: you know? And other things like that. And this is
8:21
Speaker 1: talking to young actors and young people who who look
8:23
Speaker 1: at stories to know that when you see a guy
8:26
Speaker 1: like Mr Hall talking to you about his career, how
8:30
Speaker 1: he's consistent with the role. He has to do homework.
8:33
Speaker 1: He has to know when he's sitting up there that
8:37
Speaker 1: if he's been if he's been appointed during the Clinton administration,
8:41
Speaker 1: he has seen a lot that he is not liked
8:44
Speaker 1: over the years. And so when you make that big
8:47
Speaker 1: speech moment, it's kind of like an eruption. Finally, I
8:51
Speaker 1: just gotta see what I gotta say. And that's really
8:54
Speaker 1: powerful for your character development. Correct, absolutely, absolutely, because you
9:00
Speaker 1: sit there and you say, I've I've sat here and
9:02
Speaker 1: watched hundreds, if not thousands of young men and women
9:08
Speaker 1: come before me and and seeing their lives be shattered,
9:18
Speaker 1: families broken up, you know, uh, because of some laws
9:26
Speaker 1: that are just that I cannot change. I'm merely the
9:31
Speaker 1: person who has to facilitator. That's all facilitate those Okay,
9:38
Speaker 1: he strikes you out, you know, and so um, those
9:45
Speaker 1: are the things that we look at and and it's
9:48
Speaker 1: important that that bring about awareness so that we can
9:55
Speaker 1: reach out to our representatives and have been change these
9:59
Speaker 1: un just lost so that we can move forward, so
10:05
Speaker 1: that we can try on somehow to level this incredibly
10:11
Speaker 1: disproportionate plane. On the phone, gu is a fondae Curtis Hall.
10:15
Speaker 1: He's starring and judge on the new Show for the People. Uh,

11:03
Speaker 1: I think he's biou. That's when it really really came
11:07
Speaker 1: to mind that it was now to see that whole
11:11
Speaker 1: years and because uh, because I met you probably like

Speaker 1: a ninety three or something like that, and nobody we've
11:17

11:20
Speaker 1: That's why I love my show. I get to really
11:22
Speaker 1: talk from a different perspective. With individuals like you who
11:25
Speaker 1: I've admired, but also allow you to tell your story.
11:28
Speaker 1: So give us a little bit about Harriet before we

11:33
Speaker 1: major actor role in it. Yeah, Harriet is the story
11:38
Speaker 1: of Harriet, Harriet Tubman, and it is not a traditional

15:26
Speaker 1: I was skeptical, but decided to give it a shot,
15:28
Speaker 1: and I bought a Blink camera system. With our last
15:31
Speaker 1: security system, false alarms, wires everywhere, and monthly fees, we
15:35
Speaker 1: couldn't get out of my bad But our Blink system
15:37

15:41
Speaker 1: their wire free, easy to set up, and they run
15:43

Speaker 1: Piece of mind and Blink camera system started under eighty

Speaker 1: bucks with no subscriptions. We were on vacation and I
15:52
Speaker 1: gotten to learn of my smartphone that motion was detected
15:54
Speaker 1: at our front door. I checked my Blink app and

Speaker 1: I saw it was just my cool new device being delivered. Hey,
16:00
Speaker 1: we agree no new devices except Blink. Just kidding, not

16:25
Speaker 1: Rashan McDonald and you're listening to money making conversation. UM,
16:28
Speaker 1: thank you for listening, Thank you for watching. Thank you
16:31
Speaker 1: for allowing me to build this platform to provide you
16:34
Speaker 1: with information that I feel it's necessary to succeed in business,
16:39
Speaker 1: to succeed in life. Uh lanes and motivation. A lot
16:43
Speaker 1: of people just don't get it. They just don't. They
16:45
Speaker 1: believe they are dreamers. They see other people's success and
16:49
Speaker 1: they'll understand the path of the road to get there.
16:52
Speaker 1: They just see the final verse, They feel the final leg,
16:55
Speaker 1: and there's a journey. I have a journey, all right.
16:57
Speaker 1: I tend to give a little some pieces of my
17:00
Speaker 1: journey along the way. And then if they ever show
17:03
Speaker 1: my staff, I wass going. I didn't know that. I
17:05
Speaker 1: didn't know that because there's so many layers of something.
17:09
Speaker 1: Some stories I forget sometimes some some stories I bring up.
17:12
Speaker 1: I just remember when I brought it up, because when
17:15
Speaker 1: you're when you're trying to be successful, you just tend
17:18
Speaker 1: to grind. You just tend to just want to accomplish
17:21
Speaker 1: your task. You just want to make it happen. And
17:23
Speaker 1: when you want to make it happen, there's a general Tennessee,
17:26
Speaker 1: when you succeed, you're quickly going to the next task.
17:29
Speaker 1: And that's what successful people do. That's why sometimes you
17:32
Speaker 1: need people around you that that log down that information,
17:36
Speaker 1: that that that documents your success and document your story.
17:40
Speaker 1: And today's social media documents your story. The internet document
17:43
Speaker 1: your story. In the past, I I see more and
17:46
Speaker 1: more my history being brought online. People are constantly telling
17:51
Speaker 1: me I told me about jokes. I I can't believe
17:53
Speaker 1: that they are online now somebody with referencing a Denny's
17:57
Speaker 1: joke I did many years ago. I didn't even know
18:00
Speaker 1: that was online. Is online and people people tell me
18:02
Speaker 1: about it. And I did that many years ago at
18:04
Speaker 1: the punch line at Sandy Springs and Atlanta, Georgia. But again,
18:08
Speaker 1: Money Making Conversation is a show that I brought to

18:42
Speaker 1: Unique Jones, Hi, Hi, where are you calling from? Where
18:50
Speaker 1: are you calling from? I'm right outside of DC in Maryland. Okay,
18:54
Speaker 1: you wide away? You wide away? Which is good? Is
18:59
Speaker 1: that your base are your or your East Coast person?
19:02
Speaker 1: I'm an East Coast person. Yes, I'm based there, born
19:04
Speaker 1: and raised. Left for a little while, came back. Okay, cool.
19:08
Speaker 1: Tell me about that. I read a little bit out,
19:10
Speaker 1: you know, do all my little research, and it was
19:11
Speaker 1: just talking about the UH. It was started because of
19:15
Speaker 1: them We Can. We started UH in February is a
19:18
Speaker 1: twenty eight day photo campaign for children a period as
19:22
Speaker 1: iconic Black history figures of the past and present. It
19:25
Speaker 1: was inspired by your songs Chase and Amari to teach
19:29
Speaker 1: and refresh Black history while connecting the dots between the past, present,
19:33
Speaker 1: and future. That's how I started. Huh it is I
19:36
Speaker 1: was inspired by my sons um and UH really just
19:40
Speaker 1: the need to refute some of the stereotypes and narratives
19:43
Speaker 1: that we were inundated with during that time. That was
19:46
Speaker 1: the one year anniversary of Traymon Martin's murder. We were
19:49
Speaker 1: approaching Black History Month, and I just thought, Wow, what
19:52
Speaker 1: can we do to inject some positivity into the universe
19:55
Speaker 1: and also uplift black folks at the same time. Now,
19:59
Speaker 1: when you say a, oh, those shot, what was it
20:01
Speaker 1: something local were you? Were you doing it for a
20:04
Speaker 1: website or we're doing it for a magazine? What was what?
20:07
Speaker 1: What was the reason behind that the campaign that you
20:10
Speaker 1: created with the twenty eight Days? Yeah, I wasn't commissioned
20:14
Speaker 1: or charged, um by anyone else to do it. It's
20:17
Speaker 1: something that I wanted to do on my own. I
20:19
Speaker 1: had been what you would call a weekend warrior and photography.
20:22
Speaker 1: I was, uh, built up a client and built up
20:26
Speaker 1: a clientele. On the weekends, I had a nine to
20:28
Speaker 1: five working and advertising, and on the weekends I had
20:30
Speaker 1: fun um photographing people and so UM I saw it
20:34
Speaker 1: as an opportunity to extend my passion for social justice
20:38
Speaker 1: and art into a campaign. And so with something I
20:40
Speaker 1: did on my own. You know, with Facebook, you have
20:43
Speaker 1: a platform. If you have a page, right, if you
20:46
Speaker 1: have the Internet and you have a domain name, you
20:48
Speaker 1: have a home online. And so I saw it as
20:51
Speaker 1: an opportunity to really do something from proactive perspective, to
20:55
Speaker 1: to create what I wanted to see. And so it
20:58
Speaker 1: wasn't for a magazine or anyone else was or me
21:00
Speaker 1: and I was sharing. It was the world. So it
21:02
Speaker 1: was days Black History of Mondon, February. So what was
21:06
Speaker 1: the reaction to the campaign once it went online? I'm
21:08
Speaker 1: assuming you posted this on Facebook? Yeah? I posted on
21:12
Speaker 1: Facebook one story each day, and uh, with each day
21:15
Speaker 1: people really started to pay attention to understand that it
21:17
Speaker 1: was a part of a larger campaign, and they started
21:20
Speaker 1: to anticipate the images and to if I was late.
21:23
Speaker 1: If it wasn't at nine thirteen and it was instead
21:26
Speaker 1: at nine thirty, people started to stay, where's the image
21:28
Speaker 1: for today? They were so um taken aback and by
21:33
Speaker 1: seeing these young kids portraying these icons that we have
21:37
Speaker 1: grown to know and to love. And so it went viral.
21:41
Speaker 1: I mean thousands of people shared it and they started
21:44
Speaker 1: to not only ask for more images, but they started
21:46
Speaker 1: to ask for products. UM that um embody the photos right, UM.
21:52
Speaker 1: So it was it was it was super successful. Now
21:54
Speaker 1: you entrepreneur, what you just did this from a It
21:57
Speaker 1: was a passion project. When did you entrepreneur? Will side
22:00
Speaker 1: popping in in this campaign in February? UM, it started people.
22:06
Speaker 1: I didn't create it thinking I was going to monetize it.
22:10
Speaker 1: That's never the goal. The goal was always just to
22:12
Speaker 1: create something that I wanted to see. And the people
22:15
Speaker 1: demanded that the UM the e commerce come into play.
22:19
Speaker 1: They asked, well, this picture is great, I would love
22:23
Speaker 1: a poster, and so I said, well, I can figure
22:26
Speaker 1: it out. So I started selling posters. And then people
22:30
Speaker 1: started to say, well, these posters are great, but I
22:32
Speaker 1: can't put all these posters up in my home. I
22:33
Speaker 1: would love a calendar, UM. And so I figured it
22:36
Speaker 1: I would started selling calendars. This is all in February.
22:39
Speaker 1: We started taking pre orders UM. And then quickly enough
22:42
Speaker 1: people start saying, you know what, posters are great, calendars
22:45
Speaker 1: are great. I think I would love to have this
22:47
Speaker 1: with a coffee table book. UM. And so it was
22:51
Speaker 1: it was a matter of just going with the flow.
22:53
Speaker 1: And trying to keep leveling up as people demanded more
22:56
Speaker 1: and more, and doing research and and reaching out to
22:59
Speaker 1: people who had success in this type of space to
23:01
Speaker 1: figure out, um, how to navigate the waters. And so
23:05
Speaker 1: February two thousan thirteen forces in the end was when
23:07
Speaker 1: the the entrepreneurship really started to come into play UM
23:12
Speaker 1: and it's still in the play right because you you
23:14
Speaker 1: learn as the people demand more, and you continue to
23:16
Speaker 1: identify needs and ways to us service them. When I
23:20
Speaker 1: will go to your website, I learned so much and
23:23
Speaker 1: became so engaged. How do you How do you create
23:27
Speaker 1: your stories? How do you create your stories? That makes
23:30
Speaker 1: a person like me interested, as well as a person
23:32
Speaker 1: and their teams interested, as well as a millennial interested. Well,
23:37
Speaker 1: we all want to see ourselves. We want to see
23:39
Speaker 1: ourselves reflected. And there's a certain disconnect or distance between
23:43
Speaker 1: you and a celebrity um as you know, it's just
23:45
Speaker 1: as a from everyday person. But you can go on
23:49
Speaker 1: that site and see somebody that reminds you of your aunt,
23:51
Speaker 1: your uncle, your niche, you and nephew. You can see
23:53
Speaker 1: a story about a young child who's got a scholarship.
23:57
Speaker 1: You can see a story about a five are in
24:00
Speaker 1: the sun UM and and their bond over a viral video.
24:04
Speaker 1: And so the site is all about being relatable. It's
24:07
Speaker 1: all about making sure that somebody can go on that
24:10
Speaker 1: site and find a mirror or someone else who looks
24:13
Speaker 1: like them or reminds them of someone in their home.
24:16
Speaker 1: And so we get UM people send us stories all
24:19
Speaker 1: the time. They email us at UM hello at because
24:21
Speaker 1: when we can dot com they submit and say, my
24:24
Speaker 1: mom made history. She's the first black woman to do X,
24:27
Speaker 1: Y and Z in this county. UM. That's the story,
24:30
Speaker 1: regardless of as a big county or not, that we're
24:32
Speaker 1: gonna put We're gonna publish it, We're gonna write about it. UM.
24:35
Speaker 1: There are stories that we see on the internet. UM.
24:38
Speaker 1: There was a story that went up the other day
24:40
Speaker 1: about the only black owned movie theater in Baltimore, right
24:43
Speaker 1: outside of Baltimore, and that just came from being on
24:46
Speaker 1: Facebook and it showed up then my actual news feed,
24:49
Speaker 1: and I said, well, this is something that everybody should
24:51
Speaker 1: be talking about. And that story alone drove about a
24:54
Speaker 1: hundred thousand visitors to the site in two days. And
24:56
Speaker 1: so UM we're constantly looking for story reason like that
25:00
Speaker 1: we we we posted obvious, but we feel like there
25:02
Speaker 1: are so many other stories that we hear and we
25:05
Speaker 1: and we know about in our everyday lives. Always ask

Speaker 1: state side when I say stateside in the United States,
32:56
Speaker 1: or they just where are they going? Well, this is
32:59
Speaker 1: this is the great thing about the travel show. That's
33:01
Speaker 1: the sign is speaking of Rashan. The great thing about
33:04
Speaker 1: the Travel show is that we're gonna take you all over.
33:05
Speaker 1: We'll take you off the beaten Pass on the East coast,
33:08
Speaker 1: the West coast with that are culturally authentic to us. Um.
33:13
Speaker 1: You know, that's the great gallery, the great person that's
33:16
Speaker 1: out there designing UM. But you can't do a show
33:19
Speaker 1: and and help and live through the lens of our
33:21
Speaker 1: eyes without going to the Motherlands. So we are going
33:24
Speaker 1: to go to Africa. We are going to you know,
33:26
Speaker 1: highlight some of the great things about our people, um
33:29
Speaker 1: uh museum, just cultural things that make us who we are.
33:34
Speaker 1: So we are going to head to Africa. And we're
33:35
Speaker 1: also going to tap into the Caribbean, because when you
33:37
Speaker 1: start looking at thanks full circle, it just seems like
33:40
Speaker 1: the Caribbean and Africa are natural places to go, but
33:42
Speaker 1: everybody can't just hop a plane and go there. So
33:44
Speaker 1: we're gonna also places and the continent of the US
33:47
Speaker 1: that you need to go to people, you need to see,
33:49
Speaker 1: people what you're doing, people that you need to support,
33:52
Speaker 1: and you know, just help uplift each other, you know,
33:54
Speaker 1: And so that's that's very important. And so it's callot
33:56
Speaker 1: Lens of Culture, and you will be getting a bird's
33:59
Speaker 1: eye view of our culture through the lens of these
34:01
Speaker 1: two awesome posts that are gonna take you two places
34:04
Speaker 1: off the beaten path. Now some places will be on
34:06
Speaker 1: the beaten path, but things that you didn't know you
34:09
Speaker 1: didn't know. Maybe perhaps that um a gallery that you
34:12
Speaker 1: know we hear about all the time was founded and
34:14
Speaker 1: owned and operated by African American. So we're diving deep
34:17
Speaker 1: into the backgrounds of these travel locations just to make
34:20
Speaker 1: sure when you do hit the road with your family
34:23
Speaker 1: on that family union or hit the road on a
34:25
Speaker 1: business trip, take to take two minutes out to go
34:27
Speaker 1: out and learn a little bit about yourself and support
34:31
Speaker 1: that person that's out there grinding as we are. See,
34:35
Speaker 1: they can pitch, that's the key. They can They can pitch.
34:39
Speaker 1: You know, one get tied up and just pick up
34:41
Speaker 1: to the start talking. So you know what, we we
34:44
Speaker 1: joke and we'd always say we're the ying and the
34:45
Speaker 1: yang because sometimes you know, when when Rochelle's going hard
34:48
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh lord, Rochelle, I don't know if
34:50
Speaker 1: I can talk, and no, good, well I can, but
34:52
Speaker 1: and then she she can pick up, and you know,
34:54
Speaker 1: we sort of we kind of know when to go
34:55
Speaker 1: and when the stop, when to go and you know,
34:58
Speaker 1: but you know what, we've been in business for sixteen
35:00
Speaker 1: seventeen years together, so and we've we were friends before that.
35:03
Speaker 1: So I think one of the things that make us
35:05
Speaker 1: unique as a black owned company is that we kind
35:08
Speaker 1: of get each other. You two are super talented. I'm
35:12
Speaker 1: just letting you know. It's about relationships, it's about power,
35:16
Speaker 1: is about knowing each other. But you two are gifted
35:19
Speaker 1: and now I can't I can't take that. I can't
35:21
Speaker 1: thought I can. I know what you said, and you're
35:23
Speaker 1: absolutely true. It's about relationship. I would just let you
35:25
Speaker 1: know this Reshart McDon I got brand, I got brand,
35:29

41:05
Speaker 1: a better way to check in on our house while
41:07
Speaker 1: I was at work, and a friend recommended Blink. I
41:10
Speaker 1: was skeptical, but decided to give it a shot, and
41:12
Speaker 1: I bought a Blink camera system. With our last security system,
41:15
Speaker 1: false alarms, wires everywhere, and monthly fees, we couldn't get
41:19
Speaker 1: out of my bad But our Blink system is different.
41:21
Speaker 1: Their motion activated cameras that work inside and outside their
41:25
Speaker 1: wire free, easy to set up, and they run on
41:27
Speaker 1: two lithium batteries that last up to two years total.
41:30
Speaker 1: Piece of mind and Blink camera system started under eighty
41:32
Speaker 1: bucks with no subscriptions. We were on vacation and I
41:36
Speaker 1: gotten to learn of my smartphone that motion was detected
41:38
Speaker 1: at our front door. I checked my Blink app and
41:40
Speaker 1: I saw it was just my cool new device being delivered. Hey,
41:43
Speaker 1: we agreed no new devices except Blink. Just kidding, not kidding.
41:47
Speaker 1: With Blink camera system starting under eighty bucks, home security
41:51
Speaker 1: just got easier. Go to Blink Protected dot com, Slash Secure,

Speaker 1: thank you for having the conversations we need to be having. Well.
43:10
Speaker 1: I appreciate the compliment because of the fact that I'm
43:13
Speaker 1: in a good place in my life because of the
43:14
Speaker 1: fact that I'm I'm doing something that I want to
43:17
Speaker 1: see happened. There's something I actually I ways tell people
43:20
Speaker 1: when when you reach a certain age, whether you get
43:22
Speaker 1: your third is your thord is and you could and
43:24
Speaker 1: you don't want to know what to do with your
43:25
Speaker 1: life just looking back, look back when you were in
43:27
Speaker 1: your early twenties, look back in those years, because those
43:30
Speaker 1: are years with designed or driven by passion, with driven
43:33
Speaker 1: by emotion and actually driven by what you really wanted
43:35
Speaker 1: to do. But what happens is what happens as you
43:38
Speaker 1: get older, different things start shaping your direction. It could
43:40
Speaker 1: be a relationship, it could be education, it could be
43:43
Speaker 1: a job, it could be a child, it could be
43:46
Speaker 1: a children and that will get your own course. And
43:49
Speaker 1: so you reach a point in life you go, what
43:51
Speaker 1: do I want to do? Just go back, don't look
43:54
Speaker 1: at that current president. What happens? So you let's let's
44:00
Speaker 1: talk about you first. You know, first of all, um
44:04
Speaker 1: uh teen BT was the face of Black America TV,
44:09
Speaker 1: and you basically were the face of a younger generation,
44:12
Speaker 1: a generation of you gave a voice, a millennial voice,
44:17
Speaker 1: and you was pre social media too. Goods. You know
44:21
Speaker 1: you're social. You know, you might might not be talking
44:24
Speaker 1: to me if you have social media, because you might
44:26
Speaker 1: have a fifteen million followers up. Because we get an
44:33
Speaker 1: old school stylesvision viewers, television viewers and website yes, no,
44:39
Speaker 1: not even I mean we don't even have websites early on.
44:41
Speaker 1: I mean that that evolved that. Yeah, television viewers were
44:44
Speaker 1: Where was that phone calls, like the good old fashioned
44:46
Speaker 1: phone call like we're doing now. It was like a
44:47
Speaker 1: phone call. I would love to do a phone call, right,
44:50
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not a text, it's not a you know,
44:53
Speaker 1: it's really nice. When you was getting that early success
44:56
Speaker 1: on BT that led you to your own talk show,
45:00
Speaker 1: what what what was driving you? Would producers driving you
45:03
Speaker 1: or did you have your own point of view? So
45:06
Speaker 1: it's funny you say, uh, you were talking before I
45:09
Speaker 1: actually came on, but I was listening to you said
45:11
Speaker 1: you couldn't figure it out. You didn't have a group
45:13
Speaker 1: of people around you you protected you. So when you
45:16
Speaker 1: were making all this money and you were kind of
45:17
Speaker 1: in the middle of everything, when you when you look back,
45:19
Speaker 1: you probably say I could have made anything happen had
45:22
Speaker 1: I had these resources. I look back at that time
45:24
Speaker 1: where I first went to BT and kind of that
45:26
Speaker 1: whole I could say five to seven year window around BT.
45:31
Speaker 1: I look at that in the same way I went
45:33
Speaker 1: into an industry that I didn't expect to be in
45:36
Speaker 1: and didn't really know a whole lot about and what
45:38
Speaker 1: I did. I always like to look at what I
45:40
Speaker 1: did wrong, because it's not to sit and glame or guilt.
45:42
Speaker 1: That's not But what it is to do is to
45:45
Speaker 1: to have a helpful look back at what you didn't
45:48
Speaker 1: do right, so you know what to do right now,
45:51
Speaker 1: because now the only time we can affect. So I
45:53
Speaker 1: look back and I go had I known what I
45:56
Speaker 1: know now, here's what I would have done differently. And
45:58
Speaker 1: what I would have done differently was really understood my
46:01
Speaker 1: position and the business of me right. I didn't understand
46:06
Speaker 1: myself as a business. I didn't understand myself at UM
46:10
Speaker 1: as a brand. And I gained a lot of popularity
46:14
Speaker 1: from just being myself and kind of following the things
46:17
Speaker 1: that came up and listening to my intuition. Tho, they
46:19
Speaker 1: are all really important things to do. Listen to your intuition.
46:21
Speaker 1: That's how I made it to team someone I was
46:23
Speaker 1: doing youth work, and those youths um led me to
46:26
Speaker 1: that job because I told them about it, and I
46:28
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, I'm not gonna do that. You guys
46:30
Speaker 1: just TV. I'm not interested in TV. And they're like, what,
46:32
Speaker 1: you just sat here for a summer telling us how
46:34
Speaker 1: life brings you opportunities. You have to be aware, you
46:37
Speaker 1: have to stay open, and now you're not going to
46:38
Speaker 1: be open. I was like, oh, yeah, that's a bit hypocritical,
46:41
Speaker 1: so let me go ahead and tide. And you know,
46:43
Speaker 1: it was a beautiful entry into something that was completely
46:46
Speaker 1: unexpected for my life, and yet it also did things
46:49
Speaker 1: to my life that were unexpected, and because I wasn't
46:52
Speaker 1: prepared for them and didn't have the people around me
46:54
Speaker 1: that could help me prepare for them, they ran me
46:56
Speaker 1: over like it was too much. I felt like almost
46:59
Speaker 1: blue a gasket of my soul, you know. In in
47:03
Speaker 1: those seven five or seven years now, it was also
47:05
Speaker 1: a really exciting time in my life, my early twenties.
47:08
Speaker 1: My you know, I'm making money, I'm young, I'm cute
47:11
Speaker 1: like a lot of superstar, but I couldn't take advantage
47:15
Speaker 1: of it in the way that looking back, I realized
47:18
Speaker 1: I could have had I've been paying attention, no harm,
47:20
Speaker 1: no foul. I still got all that stuff going for me. Absolutely,
47:23
Speaker 1: And I want to say that this is not a
47:26
Speaker 1: negative comment. This is about why I created this show
47:29
Speaker 1: because people need to understand it. You can get caught
47:32
Speaker 1: in a whirlwind and and for you an athlete, you
47:36
Speaker 1: could be an athlete. A lot of times it happens.
47:38
Speaker 1: We did. It happen to them all time, right and
47:40
Speaker 1: so but a lot of times when you're when you're
47:42
Speaker 1: a talent, because you have to know the place she
47:45
Speaker 1: was at because of the fact that the et was
47:47
Speaker 1: the network work. You know what I'm saying. You know,
47:52
Speaker 1: if you want to be a star, you want to
47:54
Speaker 1: be a videos played you turned to be et and
47:57
Speaker 1: and then here you were this beautiful for articular young lady.
48:02
Speaker 1: You're going like wow. You know, from my standpoint, I'm going,
48:06
Speaker 1: why ain't I managing? Huh? Because the fact that the
48:11
Speaker 1: two I probably I probably could have done change the
48:14
Speaker 1: world right back then if I had you manage. But
48:17
Speaker 1: you know, but thing is that thank you. But the
48:19
Speaker 1: thing that you did, the thing that I was just
48:21
Speaker 1: looking at you. But I always know that that That's
48:23
Speaker 1: why I was asking that question at some point along
48:26
Speaker 1: the line, people don't even know you, and they start
48:28
Speaker 1: making decisions for you, and they start telling you this
48:31
Speaker 1: is what you should do, and and and Steve tell you.
48:34
Speaker 1: Whenever I ask any talent I worked with, is Kevin
48:36
Speaker 1: hard h to Roger p Henson or the Maori Twins,
48:41
Speaker 1: I always asking what they want to do. That's what
48:43
Speaker 1: you want, I said, that said, that's way, because I
48:46
Speaker 1: gotta make it work for you long term, because short
48:49
Speaker 1: term I can. I can I conduct tape you into situation.
48:52
Speaker 1: But one day you're gonna wake up and go, I'm
48:54
Speaker 1: bored or why am I doing this? This is crazy?
48:58
Speaker 1: Are you start rebelling from the foremat and so and
49:02
Speaker 1: so I was watching you exactly what happened to me,
49:04
Speaker 1: Rashaan Exactly? I started rebelling from the from the same
49:07
Speaker 1: and rebelling from the unhappiness that created in my life.
49:10
Speaker 1: I felt scared a lot of the time. I had
49:12
Speaker 1: a lot of stalkers. I had people all over me
49:15
Speaker 1: all the time, and I didn't know who to trust.
49:18
Speaker 1: And I asked my you know, certain family members to
49:21
Speaker 1: come manage me, helped me out, let me figure this out.
49:23
Speaker 1: And they were all, you know, they're doing their own lives.
49:24
Speaker 1: That's not what they wanted to do, and I you
49:26
Speaker 1: can't force people to do what they want to do.
49:28
Speaker 1: So I felt, you know completely, I mean to a
49:31
Speaker 1: certain extent, isolated and alone. I mean, I'm from California,
49:34
Speaker 1: I was living in d C. I've gone to school there,
49:36
Speaker 1: so of course I knew people. But it's different when
49:37
Speaker 1: you have like your family around you, um and people
49:41
Speaker 1: who know what they're doing in a particular industry. So
49:43
Speaker 1: exactly what you said is what happened to me. And
49:46
Speaker 1: I I was supporting people in my family that I
49:49
Speaker 1: cared about wanted to see do well. But I wasn't
49:51
Speaker 1: investing money right and I was you know, I've never
49:53
Speaker 1: spent a lot of money. I made a good amount
49:55
Speaker 1: of money and I and I used my money wisely
49:57
Speaker 1: in ways that I felt were good. But I didn't
49:59
Speaker 1: have that advice that I needed, and I didn't know
50:02
Speaker 1: what I wanted. So when you say you're the first
50:04
Speaker 1: thing you asked them is what do you want? I
50:06
Speaker 1: don't even know what I would have how I would
50:09
Speaker 1: have answered that question my my twenty five or twenty
50:12
Speaker 1: six year old self. I don't know how I would
50:13
Speaker 1: have answered that question, it certainly would be a different
50:15
Speaker 1: answer than it is today. And today I know it's
50:18
Speaker 1: the truth. And so I needed the maturity that life brings.
50:21
Speaker 1: I needed to go through the things I went through.
50:23
Speaker 1: Sometimes you're not ready for the opportunities that come your
50:25
Speaker 1: way to really maximize them the way you could. I
50:28
Speaker 1: had a great time, I did beautiful work. I'm proud
50:30
Speaker 1: of my career, but I was never happy with it.
50:33
Speaker 1: And and now I finally get to understand those kind
50:37
Speaker 1: of full context of everything I built back then that
50:40
Speaker 1: you know, I'm so grateful that people still love and
50:43
Speaker 1: support me. They're like, where are you bid that? The gift?
50:46
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, not a gift? And I
50:48
Speaker 1: built that with my hard work, not even knowing what
50:51
Speaker 1: I was building. Um, But now I know what I
50:53
Speaker 1: want to do, and and that's a completely different feeling.
50:56
