of episode with Ali Love. You

1:23
I especially love the part

1:28
routine, which inspired an unexpected
1:30
story from Kim about the
1:32
actual origins of radical candor. And

2:00
start our practice of radical candor which
2:02
is ourselves and
2:05
we have got such a special
2:07
guest for you all today. Allie,
2:09
love, hello Allie!
2:12
Oh my gosh, how are you? Kim came
2:15
thinking what's up. Well
2:18
we were just talking about your, I was gonna
2:20
say what a career but even just your morning I
2:22
think you had a Peloton class, you were on the
2:25
Today Show, beyond
2:27
just today you're also, you've been a
2:29
New York Knicks dancer, hosted the Brooklyn
2:31
Nets for the last 10 seasons. Oh
2:34
my gosh, host of the Netflix show Dance 100 and
2:38
founder of the lifestyle brand Love
2:41
Squad and Jason, how
2:43
do you know Allie? Oh I'm
2:45
a Peloton writer and I've taken many
2:47
of Allie's classes especially love the feel-good
2:50
rides and I was super
2:52
stoked when you started doing the K-pop
2:54
rides. I'm a huge K-pop fan also.
2:57
Good, I love that. Yes, we didn't have it a part
2:59
of our music genre at Peloton and when I joined I
3:01
was like, so can we talk about this? Can
3:05
we get this going? And of course in
3:07
true Peloton fashion they're like absolutely. That's
3:10
amazing. We love that
3:12
and in addition to Peloton you've also
3:14
been on the Today Show where you're
3:16
now a contributor sharing fitness and wellness
3:18
tips and in fact you
3:21
listeners may have seen Allie recently
3:23
on Today where you shared Allie
3:25
your own experience of how radical
3:27
candor written by our very own
3:30
Kim Scott can help you boss
3:32
up and increase your confidence at
3:34
work and it was a short
3:36
trip from us being so excited, Brandy, Neil reaching
3:39
out on social media and then we heard back
3:41
from you and so we are
3:43
so excited to have this conversation and
3:45
learn more. You know I
3:47
have to tell you Allie this morning I
3:50
was talking to my I was talking to
3:52
my editor who said that he starts many
3:54
mornings with you and that he loves you
3:56
and if you want to write a book
3:58
he wants to edit it. Wow,
4:01
thanks Yeah I know a lot of my
4:03
colleagues right now there There are many books
4:05
out there I still have to reads a
4:07
few. their said just launched but am I
4:09
know like my colleagues have written a book
4:11
But I do appreciate that. I'll keep that
4:13
the forefront of my emphasis on us in
4:15
the but I will say wait came I
4:17
will say you're big shoes to fill because
4:19
when I do things like in this is
4:21
it is a different than a an autobiography
4:23
or a life's journey or something that has
4:25
to do in the city space where my
4:27
fellow instructors. Are thriving like there is a
4:30
constant. Their books are amazing in your. Stays.
4:32
Eat. Those are. That's where I see myself
4:34
in terms of. What? Has set goals. That's
4:36
what I have the with what I'd like to write.
4:38
so is something what you've written in hope it. Also
4:41
does of excuses elect I mean
4:43
come on eve of nice. Wow.
4:45
Lots I I wrote many bucks said did
4:48
not have published. A fire and one
4:50
sono. And sauce almost didn't even try
4:52
to publicise i'm I'm writing. Radical candor
4:54
for myself. Ah, and I'm not
4:56
even gonna try. So luckily I
4:58
tried sunglasses and he pride. And
5:00
keep riding a bicycle really. And spot. I mean
5:03
I think a hard thing. About.
5:05
What we're talking about. His behavior change
5:07
and you help people change their behavior.
5:09
You the and that is magic. India.
5:12
I try. My best Adam How to win it
5:14
says the guy strike I'm to undermine. And
5:17
that kind of magic said. you inspire
5:19
people. Can you have talked about staying
5:22
centered as your happiness recipe? and I
5:24
think one of the things is helpful
5:26
for each of us to know what
5:28
it is we do to to stay
5:30
centered. I know I need to move
5:33
and I need to meditate. I need
5:35
to last. and I probably most of
5:37
all need to not take myself so
5:39
seriously. Cam, You need your eight hours
5:41
of sleep, your health and exercise. You
5:44
need dinner with someone you love. Ah,
5:46
and. How would you
5:49
describe your happiness? Recipe Alley:
5:52
Who you know? What's funny is a while you're
5:54
reading. Kinda like a weed twins. Are we the
5:56
same person as. He those shoes
5:59
are already pretty cool. I know
6:01
because what you said it's like dinner with
6:03
someone I love it said is true. I.
6:06
Love. Sitting around said it around
6:08
but I love sitting around food
6:10
and having great conversation. in yes,
6:12
understand me and that truly make
6:14
me feel safe and that to
6:16
me is such a priority. I'm
6:18
in terms of like my routine
6:20
in terms of like Iowa, say
6:22
like your. Perfect day or for me
6:24
is is being around especially at the
6:26
end of the day is the moon's
6:28
folks at that? I can just reflect.
6:30
I can take that exhale and let it
6:33
all go at a the I love that
6:35
you were saying, You know? That
6:37
everything's. Out that series again. Agencies relax
6:39
a little better. I am to align with
6:41
you on that. I
6:43
want to be. I suffer from like that,
6:45
whatever been performing to be perfect perfectionism. It's
6:48
like I want a want to do well
6:50
by you. I want to be prepared of
6:52
everything to be perfect and that's not how
6:54
life is. I have to talk myself kind
6:56
of through that and especially. In. The mornings before
6:58
gear up. For. Example: In the morning like today,
7:00
it's like I have those self talk with my
7:02
son handle on up for vote over again on
7:05
a day that makes me feel good it's I
7:07
need to. Connect. With myself and
7:09
I ask myself this one two part
7:11
question is how or what do I
7:14
wanna feel today allowing the answer to
7:16
that. To. Anchor the entire day
7:18
puts me in a position that been talking
7:20
about this a lot recently but it puts
7:23
me in a position to be pro active
7:25
instead of reactive a us the open up
7:27
Instagram or you open of and your emails
7:30
from work and both times they are things
7:32
they are. There are things that you are
7:34
now feeding yourself. Which is natural.
7:36
It's. Normal. but instead of it
7:38
and i'm allowing the things that i'm like
7:40
taking an or the things that i'm eating
7:42
my mind of my body to dictate how
7:44
i feel by being reactionary to what they
7:47
have put out a with things and an
7:49
email didn't say things you know i'm upset
7:51
see know it's sussex in says that being
7:53
the case i am already proactive that no
7:55
matter what i have whatever comes up on
7:57
my instagram or whatever email a sense to
7:59
me i'm century myself around the word
8:01
or the feeling of what I'm carrying
8:03
with me that day, what
8:05
I'm anchoring me on that day. So I do
8:07
that in the morning. It's like making sure I
8:09
establish my anchor in the morning, and that has
8:12
been very helpful. I do
8:14
enjoy working out. That is so brilliant. I
8:17
love that. Ali, the word that was coming up
8:19
for me was nourish, because
8:22
you have your evening at the end of the day where
8:24
you let go and exhale, and
8:26
you're surrounded by love
8:28
and fun and laughter, and you're
8:31
feeling nourished and replenished.
8:33
Then in the morning, you're choosing what to
8:37
consume and nourish yourself with as
8:40
you go out in the day. Especially for you
8:42
as someone, you give so much. So
8:45
it feels like it seems really important for you
8:47
to actually have that time for yourself to fill
8:49
your cup before it goes out in the
8:51
world. Masculine. Masculine question, Ali,
8:54
I want to double-click on this, because
8:58
I think it's brilliant what you do. Do
9:01
you do this in front of the mirror? Do you do
9:03
this when you're still in bed? Where
9:06
do you make this decision? Because
9:08
it's a really important decision, how
9:11
you're going to react to all the nonsense
9:14
that is coming your way. Yeah.
9:16
In a given day. I
9:18
love that you asked me this because I never share where
9:20
I do this, because it's the place that everyone goes when
9:23
you wake up in the morning, and sit on the toilet.
9:25
It's not that shiny. I'm
9:29
very open and transparent. I do
9:31
it two places. Most times
9:33
I do it in the car, like after I've gotten
9:35
up in the morning and I've hydrated and I've prayed,
9:37
and I'll do it in the car on my way
9:39
to work. Or if I'm walking
9:42
to the train, whatever the means of
9:44
transportation is to work, that's
9:46
a physical reminder for me. If
9:49
I haven't asked myself that question by the time
9:51
I get in the car, the car is my,
9:53
because I've created a habit of
9:55
doing it, it's my physical reminder to
9:58
ask myself that question. But
10:00
the reality is our mornings aren't, you
10:02
know, I don't wake up and have all makeup
10:04
on and looking good. I wake up like everyone
10:06
else, breath is bad. I'm probably dehydrated. So I
10:08
need to, you know, I, I prepared the
10:10
night before, but I, everybody, we all, you know, get
10:13
up in the morning and we look like ourselves and
10:15
I go to the bathroom and that's the first thing
10:17
I do. And I sit there
10:19
and I'm like, oh, that's also again,
10:21
a reminder of asking the whole question.
10:23
So, yes, it's a great place. It
10:25
is a great place for deep thoughts.
10:27
Actually, in fact, radical candor was born
10:29
on my parents' toilet. You heard it
10:31
here. But I was like, this is
10:34
a different origin story. I don't think
10:36
we've heard this one yet. Yeah, no,
10:38
my grandmother had yelled at me because
10:40
I had lied to someone and
10:42
I was crying. And then she said,
10:44
you know, I'm telling you this. I'm
10:47
telling you about the truth because it matters
10:49
to you and it's important and because
10:51
I love you. And if you can
10:53
listen to people's criticism of you, you'll
10:55
be a better person. You'll have a
10:58
happier life. And I went away. I
11:01
retreated to my parents' bathroom and
11:03
sat down on the toilet for a while. And that was where
11:05
I was like, you know, Granny is right about that.
11:08
Oh, it's a good spot. It's a good, it's
11:10
good. I love it.
11:13
You didn't know you were gonna be talking about this
11:15
when you invited me on this podcast. Look at that.
11:17
No, I didn't. This was unplanned. Allie,
11:20
can you just for our listeners again, just
11:22
ask, speak that question so that people
11:24
can really anchor that for themselves as
11:26
they start their day. Absolutely. It's what
11:28
or how do I wanna feel today?
11:31
And it could be anything from, I'll give
11:33
you example. Sometimes that's actually helpful is I
11:36
wanna be quiet today. So when
11:38
you have a work meeting, you're not gonna be the
11:40
loudest voice on the call and you're gonna feel good
11:42
about that. You can say
11:44
that I wanna bring joy today. So when you
11:46
get into the office, that's what you're emoting. That's
11:49
what you're bringing. If somebody shows up with a bad
11:51
attitude, you're like, ooh, that's not my bag. I'm bringing
11:53
joy. And I think that
11:55
that's what it is. Some days I wake up and I'm like,
11:58
oh, we're getting it done today. What do I wanna do? want
12:00
to feel today, I want to feel
12:02
accomplished. And any roadblocks, I'm moving. And
12:04
you know why truly this
12:06
question, this two part question became so profound
12:09
for me is, and Amy,
12:11
you talked about feeling nourished is that
12:13
what I would do is I get up, I
12:16
try to be a good citizen of like my work
12:18
environment, go to work, perform, get
12:20
in meetings, and I, you
12:23
know, say something or react to something in the moment, I feel
12:25
like it was fair. I also feel like maybe
12:27
I was being, was I being mean?
12:29
Was I being kind? I couldn't tell how it
12:31
was coming off. Like how I was trading, and
12:33
I get home. And I replay my entire day
12:36
over and over. And every time I'm like, did
12:39
I make her upset? Oh my gosh, she takes
12:41
out the wrong way. And I have no clue.
12:43
So I'm over here wasting like this is now
12:45
taking up brain space. I'm allowing this, this these
12:47
thoughts to take a vacancy for me right in
12:50
my mind. And I just
12:52
started to feel bad because I'm like, I couldn't tell
12:54
my metric for success. Was that a good day? Was
12:56
that a bad day? Am I proud of myself? Am
12:58
I mad at my voice? How do I feel about
13:00
me, which is important. And so what
13:02
I realized is that the change for it is for
13:05
me to set what I want to feel and how
13:07
I want to feel before it happens. So at the
13:09
end of the day, if I was direct
13:11
in a meeting, I say
13:13
mission accomplished. I was a direct I said
13:16
I was coming in hot. I did
13:18
every every meeting I came in the class
13:20
with heart. When I saw you I
13:22
was in like bold. Like I met that
13:24
today on this Tuesday I came in
13:26
hot. And when I look back every reaction,
13:29
every action was coming in hot. Drop
13:31
well done Ali loves. I
13:34
love that. And Ali just,
13:37
you know, as you're saying this, I
13:39
am also what's coming up for me
13:41
is how we can actually support each
13:43
other with those intentions. So I'm really
13:45
curious what was, what was your
13:48
feeling you wanted to cultivate for today and how
13:50
we can support you. Oh, you
13:52
know, when I got up this morning, I said, I
13:54
have a, I Said it in my
13:56
class recently, this is very recent, but it's something
13:58
that comes into my mind as. I want to
14:00
pay president. I want to be focused
14:02
and I would have fun. So. When I woke
14:04
up this morning I said today he present the
14:07
reason for that. As you know sometimes when you
14:09
try something new and a scary it goes viable
14:11
are you don't remember It's a one of remember
14:13
everything about the non guess will sing on the
14:15
Today show for the second time. Right when I
14:17
remember focus on the teleprompter. It's your turn. You
14:19
locked into whatever it is in front of you
14:21
lock and and don't forget to enjoy it like
14:23
have fun And so that was I talked about
14:25
it with my husband. You know we went over
14:27
everything. how do you feel and I'm like okay
14:30
I'm gonna be president Stay focused and have fun.
14:32
Those are the three. Things that I've You Like
14:34
I said, I've been working on are thinking about. Often
14:36
as within a leafy. And any
14:38
time I got nervous I came back to those If
14:40
they are you focus I present for hims on. As
14:43
I love it and so. This morning
14:46
was this your second? Guess. Yes,
14:48
so I've been a contributor now. which which
14:50
is it? Also, who and let what am
14:52
I? See says one a
14:54
me up interviewed. On the City. So
14:56
what split? I've been a part of Like N
14:58
B C and like a contributor on the Today
15:00
Show says, I think I announced in May. And.
15:03
The April is left so it's been just
15:05
about five months. I guess that is for
15:07
five months after being it and that means
15:09
I would. I come on once a week.
15:12
Since you're there like and I do my segments
15:14
and so it can be a tank keys it
15:16
could be around of long as a Fitness Oregon.
15:18
Just the things around building confidence which is what
15:20
a segment When I talked about Radical Candor. And.
15:23
I would say probably. Six.
15:26
Weeks, maybe a little more is doing
15:28
a few segments they ask me to
15:30
actually. Be a guest hosts on the show. Else
15:33
and they made him a some amazing Alexi.
15:35
Made a mistake. Or
15:37
you these are with them. When it like
15:39
seventy. Yes
15:42
again and again. And so I came on
15:44
the first time and it and and Al
15:46
Roker and Melbourne we're so welcoming to like
15:48
I suppose that them with a Friday and
15:50
so it's more fun and free and in
15:52
there like great so you know everyone said
15:54
great feedback and then I didn't hear anything
15:56
for a while so came on for my
15:58
you know five minute segments. You know,
16:00
like, well, If you don't have feedback it's okay.
16:02
It's okay. it's okay. And then I got an email like
16:05
we need you don't suggest to know that. The
16:08
say was that Al Roker again and Chanel Jones which
16:10
was great. So. Cool! Did you
16:13
have fun? Oh my gosh, I
16:15
had a blast! We got I got to dance, I
16:17
got to eat some p beans and rice. I got
16:19
to talk about Taylor Swift which is always a pleasure
16:21
that talk about usher like all the that thing. The
16:24
says mom. I need to add some things
16:26

16:28

In your favor, Ride Sally! Or
16:39
Jason said it and the very beginning the
16:41
field and rise on that would say it's
16:44
It is hard to choose as easy as
16:46
parents which one's your favorite kid? they ask
16:48
a favor kid everyone knows everything has a
16:51
favorite Yes let's I doubt now in Dallas
16:53
us up. The
16:55
A to Spice This is it. Time
16:57
to go back and sit on that
17:00
toilet chemists about what he says. A
17:03
possess. The I'm the either. The nice thing
17:05
to say is either you love your kids
17:08
equally and that's the thing. I do enjoy
17:10
doing all my rights every right type. I
17:12
have a hand in my schedule of. You're.
17:14
Speaking of of what I like to teach what
17:16
and then sell it on saying what I need
17:18
to teach in terms of servicing our global members.
17:21
But. Still that ride was one of those things that
17:23
i was in the car with a has been and we
17:25
were to i just certain l a time and i was
17:27
very important. And. If you're wondering like what poorly
17:29
let me give you any. So.
17:32
In the beginning days of when I started. We
17:34
probably I don't remember. The exact numbers,
17:36
but it was somewhere in the low
17:38
hundred thousand that up that we had
17:41
in terms of membership. We. Weren't super
17:43
global. Yet, we hadn't opened our
17:45
Uk studio, so we're very much
17:47
in the Us. Said.
17:49
We were like us, centric. And
17:51
so most of my colleagues and they went to a ride and it
17:53
would go and demand. Over. Time It
17:55
would probably yield. Let's see, seven days
17:57
later it heals somewhere. Around twenty. Then.
18:00
right? That was shoot pointed out
18:02
and thirty thousand people took that right.
18:05
So. Alley Love with You arrive at this
18:07
time of like my beginning days, the first
18:09
six months of elitism and the right gone
18:11
mad and seven days later. They will be
18:13
four hundred and thirty eight feet. Said
18:16
did that right. Now if you know
18:18
math the way I know math. I
18:20
know society, and twenty thousand is greater,
18:23
Four hundred, and like, Thirty eight, right?
18:25
I know that that one number and
18:27
bigger than the other. And then you
18:30
know math really well. You can see
18:32
that the disparity. Between those eras or
18:34
even greater. And so it was one
18:36
of those things where I would go
18:38
home so really bad about myself and
18:40
then I'll try to live on about
18:42
that bright side and I'd say at
18:44
least about five hundred people like me
18:47
that the Dallas My and initial response
18:49
was a lot of people Forgot My
18:51
people That. I'm as
18:53
of the a look it up with lot of
18:55
and so as I said it's you again coming
18:57
in never thing of fitness instructor this things rent
18:59
brand new I was the whole thing for the
19:01
nets and and Adidas and acid or so I
19:04
knew the camera and I wasn't scared to speak
19:06
or the eat. I enjoy cycling I enjoy the
19:08
class I just wasn't connecting all the pieces of
19:10
the puzzle and so we were angry like attack
19:12
the move or something and I was with my
19:14
husband is is I will let you think most
19:17
people were talking about how I'm feeling what do
19:19
you think most of all. right?
19:21
One of the feel when they get own of health
19:23
and right with anyone not just a few. Others
19:26
I don't know like I don't know what they want
19:28
to feel that the what? which one do you want
19:30
to see it? would you take a right way once
19:32
you're so I just wanna feel good like that's it.
19:35
I am very simple in my mind. I want to
19:37
get on elena club dance and I wouldn't work out
19:39
and at the end I just feel good like. Basket
19:41
and he's like I can tell you right now that's
19:43
what most people have not all people onesie and I
19:45
said and I looked into my said he me to
19:47
feel good rise. And yeah, And
19:50
he will take credit that he created this. I
19:52
know when she's it. But don't tell him that.
19:54
Don't. Since. And
19:57
that is so I just I put together what is a
19:59
seal good right? because you have to distinguish it from
20:01
everything that we're offering. Like what makes this title different?
20:03
What makes this right structure different? And so I did
20:05
that work. I tested out in
20:08
a few of my business as usual classes.
20:10
And then I submitted it to my team
20:12
at Peloton and they approved it. And we
20:14
started doing feel good rides. And it's uplifting
20:16
music. You know that at least the minimum
20:18
of five minutes, there will be relentless hard work because
20:20
in order to feel good, you got to go through
20:22
some things and we'll go through them together. Um,
20:25
outside of that, you decide what you want to do
20:27
on the ride. That makes you feel good. I will
20:29
give you direction. You make those decisions that work for
20:31
you that day. Um, the five, the
20:33
minimum of five minutes or whatever that number is,
20:35
is a non-negotiable though. You have to partake.
20:37
We all have to partake. And so
20:39
I would say that ride became my
20:41
favorite ride. And then a couple of years later, I
20:44
created Sundays with Love. I've been testing it out for
20:46
a while. And so I was able
20:48
to create Sundays with Love in terms
20:50
of, uh, taking adjectives or virtues and
20:53
just amplifying those virtues through music,
20:55
through stories and tales
20:57
and, and, and cliches and things like
20:59
that, that we've all heard for years and putting
21:01
them in context and then grabbing that up into
21:04
a workout. So you're having like a visceral
21:06
reaction to the information. That
21:08
is so cool. It's really, you're
21:10
helping people change their behavior. One
21:13
of the things I really appreciate about Peloton is
21:15
that you can get different things out of it.
21:17
And I kind of see like you and Matt
21:20
Wilpers as like, like one of them is
21:22
like focus on fitness and the numbers and
21:24
progress. And the other one is like focus
21:26
on yourself, your wellbeing, like where your, your
21:28
head and like head and heart alignment.
21:32
Um, and some days I want, I
21:34
want to go by the numbers, you know what I'm saying? I want
21:36
to, I want to see where I'm at. And some days I, I
21:39
just need to move my body and feel better about
21:42
things. And I love that both of those
21:44
things are offered to me, but
21:46
I will say that I do more feel good.
21:53
No, Matt, funny, funny thing is Matt and I came in
21:55
at the same, Matt Wilpers and I came in at the
21:57
same time. and
22:00
he is the numbers person and he loves
22:02
that and I love him for that. He's
22:04
exceptional. So you started a
22:07
company, the Love Squad.
22:09
I would love to get some radical
22:11
candor on radical candor from you. What
22:13
is it about radical candor that helps
22:15
you manage that company, helps you lead
22:17
that company and what ideas in the
22:20
book don't really work so much for you? We
22:22
want to know the highs and lows.
22:24
Well, I think, I don't know about like
22:27
does it work for me, but I think the
22:29
biggest takeaway from me was how to deal,
22:31
like understanding that every, whether you are
22:33
an employee or employer, how everyone
22:35
is unique and different and
22:37
that sometimes you can see an interaction
22:40
of two people yelling at each other
22:42
and you think, wow, this is
22:44
a poor work environment and it
22:46
actually works for them. It's not
22:49
taking, it's not taking a linear
22:51
approach to what a successful working
22:54
environment is or what a working
22:56
environment should be or was before
22:58
and looking at it and as
23:01
more of a, like with
23:03
the, I guess more versatile approach of
23:05
understanding the individuals in the work environment
23:07
make up the environment and the
23:09
way that you engage and interact with respective
23:12
individuals will change from time to
23:14
time and that I think has been the
23:16
biggest takeaway for me. So if
23:19
you look at that same concept and I think that was
23:21
for me was a big concept. If you look
23:23
at that, if I don't do that, that's actually what
23:25
doesn't work for me is when I just, I'm like,
23:27
oh, I'm going to manage, you know, my team while
23:29
we are small, we've been around for a long
23:31
time. We're doing these events. If I manage them
23:33
or micromanage them in a way that they don't
23:35
understand, that doesn't make them feel safe or doesn't
23:38
make them feel good. I think
23:40
that that will cause more harm, right? Then
23:43
like then, then, then health and also more
23:45
conflict between us. And so for
23:47
me, even I take that concept,
23:49
whether I'm managing my employees
23:52
at Love Squad or I'm in a room at
23:54
Peloton and we're having a conversation with instructors or
23:56
instructor teams or our Chief
23:59
content Officer. It's like I'm I'm recognizing
24:01
that these individuals the way I
24:03
communicate. I. Want to be affected a my
24:05
mom about this? It's like. I
24:07
can. Flick. It. It's it. This concept
24:10
of you can when. You walk across three their
24:12
the car coming in. You know you have
24:14
it's a red light and you have a little
24:16
walkman across the street. This as long as a
24:18
car that you noticed that a speedy you have
24:20
the right away what is your choice to stay
24:23
on the sidewalk. Or do you watch? And
24:25
the reason I was telling my mom I asked this
24:27
is because when you walk out there, you can lock
24:29
out in the middle the street and get hit and
24:31
still be right. Yeah, so it's not about being right,
24:33
it's about being effective. And. So I think
24:35
sometimes when we say one get a say on
24:38
the sidewalk. If you did, you get nervous because
24:40
you don't want to be raunchy like will I
24:42
have the waterway. Why do I have to sit
24:44
on the side and this person speed and it's
24:46
like I get what you're saying. I understand that
24:48
you have the right or. You. Are right.
24:51
But. Do you want to be affected And
24:53
communication is the way that you can
24:55
be most effective and eventually most productive
24:57
as a T? And so that's what
24:59
I garnered from that. This book actually
25:01
came before I was a felt on
25:03
my own. Yeah, So. Back back
25:05
in the day missiles into the net and
25:08
I was also up. so you would have
25:10
Victoria like a Victoria's Secret model so they
25:12
have in health models were we would do
25:14
fit modeling so everything that victoria Victoria's Secret
25:16
but out in the stores with made off
25:19
my measurement like made off my body as
25:21
as well as way to put it at
25:23
work there I was there for probably six
25:25
years I think there are go into icily
25:27
for two hours and even trying garments give
25:30
feedback and were test now that stuff and
25:32
I remember when as the old managers there
25:34
at the. Time Heather she was. She's really
25:36
cool. She lives in Brooklyn. She's like the
25:38
cool mom by she was ahead and we
25:40
were talking another dealing with some frustrations with
25:42
in my. Career. As is like. At
25:45
the time I had an agent and I was
25:47
trying to communicate and I was going to communicate
25:49
that You know. Again, I'm
25:51
young, I don't know, I just want you to
25:53
help be I will. Stamps get me to the
25:55
next summer's I want to just be better than
25:57
what I am now and I couldn't communicate that
25:59
effectively. The way I was going about it just
26:01
will obviously was ineffective because I was frustrated. And
26:04
so we in a meeting in. He. Of
26:06
always we've all our good friends to this
26:09
day. To were attacked second and and I like him
26:11
dealing with this with into the keynote Hannibal free. And.
26:13
She gave me to see Winter a death she
26:15
brought in radical kinda. She's agreed. This book. it's
26:17
me. It's amazing. Nothing to worry. I'll do my
26:20
own copy like our guess you can have it
26:22
like that's what you do books you pass them.
26:24
Yes. And she gave me or bump. And.
26:26
It was. and it was in that that
26:29
I started to develop and re frame my
26:31
mindset of how I not only like. Very.
26:34
Myself. But how I showed up when it
26:36
came to my business like I am my
26:38
brand even. You know, when I'm twenty two
26:40
years old, I am my brand. And so
26:43
I needed to communicate in a way that
26:45
the people on my team at that time.
26:48
It was affective for both of us. So.
26:51
God I love it! I need to meet Heather!
26:54
And so yes I guess I will. Surprise

know alley as you are talking about
27:32
why is fine radical candor. So helpful
27:35
and effective communication. And what I heard
27:37
actually was almost impact versus intention like
27:39
mine in mice. My intention is to
27:42
have a and clear conversation with you
27:44
but it's not landing that way. How
27:46
do I need to adjust? One.
27:49
Of the things that came up
27:51
as you are talking about Palatine
27:53
and the individuality and as Jason
27:55
was saying feel good or measurements.
27:58
There's. so much about knowing what's gonna
28:00
work well in a one-on-one relationship with
28:02
the people that you work with. And
28:04
so I'm just so curious, you
28:07
have a dance background and how much do
28:10
you think of leadership as almost like curating
28:13
and choreography of knowing, well,
28:16
Amy and Allie might work a certain way,
28:18
but then when it's Amy, Allie and Brandy,
28:20
it might have a different dynamic. And then
28:22
we add Kim in. And so I'm just
28:24
so curious, like how do you leverage one-on-one
28:26
relationships and create like a team that's really
28:29
dancing together? I
28:31
love that idea of dancing together. Well,
28:33
I think the number one thing that
28:35
comes to mind is in one-on-one relationships,
28:38
is to stay curious of what
28:40
is working for that person in the season that
28:42
they're in, because it does change. So
28:44
if I think of where I was and
28:46
what drove, like what was my driving force
28:49
four years ago, five years ago at Peloton, it's much
28:51
different now. Cause my goals
28:53
have changed. I've grown in different areas. My
28:56
life has changed and evolved. And so I
28:58
think it's one, making sure you have constant
29:00
and clear communication. Two, I think it's staying
29:02
curious around where the person is and what
29:04
they desire and helping,
29:06
if they don't know, helping them to arrive at
29:08
that point. And then I think
29:10
it's one of those things where once you've had
29:13
these conversations, you're able to bring people together. And
29:15
to your point, I love that
29:17
you think of it as dancing. Sometimes
29:19
I think of it as like, is
29:21
it a maestro that is an orchestra? It's
29:24
like, I can frame up conversations because I
29:27
kind of know you, especially in the workspace,
29:29
a little well and what you think about
29:31
what we're doing, that I can tee it
29:33
up. Like, Kim, I know you actually like
29:35
donuts. So we're thinking about bringing donuts in.
29:38
And Amy, you maybe had some reservations when
29:40
we discussed it. And I feel like you
29:42
made up some good points, but Jason, while
29:44
he doesn't care if we have donuts or
29:46
not, I know when it comes to conversation,
29:48
he's good at tying it all together. I
29:51
just spoke life into all of you. I just
29:53
teed up a conversation. I
29:55
made it comfortable. I can tell that I know
29:57
you by saying certain words or repeating donuts. You
29:59
know me. so well Ali. There you
30:01
go. Yeah, there you go. And so
30:03
that's how I like think about, you
30:06
know, even in Peloton meetings with my
30:09
fellow instructors, this time in, you
30:11
know, you said in your, I took your class,
30:13
people love when you quote them, I don't care
30:15
if you're an instructor or not, when I can,
30:17
when I can pull your book or when people
30:19
come up to me and so I bossed up
30:21
today, I'm like, I want to know you. Like
30:23
you like to see, I feel good. I don't
30:25
care how successful or famous or unknown
30:28
you are. When people come up
30:30
to you and can quote you that
30:32
you said this, it makes you feel
30:34
like, oh, all this hard work isn't in
30:37
vain and it's inviting and that actually is
30:39
it. It opens the door to allow people
30:41
to invest in what you're saying and eventually
30:43
invest in you. And so that's what I
30:45
tend to do is I take some of
30:47
those words, repeat their words back to them,
30:49
tell them how their words connect to what
30:51
we're trying to achieve and then like
30:53
let them go on and talk. Can
30:56
we talk about the word boss for a
30:58
second? Because it was like, I
31:00
love the way that you use the word boss
31:02
and it was really hard to write a book
31:05
about being a boss when all
31:07
the words for being a manager doesn't sound
31:09
great either has a different problem. Some people
31:11
love boss, other people hate the word. So
31:14
talk to me about what do you think when you
31:16
hear the word boss? Yeah. So
31:19
again, all my journey of trying to grow up
31:21
and have a really good career that I can
31:23
enjoy. When I started at Peloton, I was having
31:26
these conversations of nobody's taking my classes. I don't
31:28
know what I'm doing. I need help. And I
31:30
sat down with a woman who used to work
31:32
at our company and it was early in
31:34
the morning. She said, I can meet you at 7am. And I was
31:36
like, great, I've been up for five hours. Let's go. You know, I'm
31:38
like, all good. And
31:41
so we sat down at the table and she
31:43
said, you know, I said, I just don't feel
31:45
confident being an instructor. I just don't think that
31:47
they trust me. And I wouldn't
31:49
trust me. Like I just don't, you know, she's
31:51
like, well, what do you want to feel like? And I was like, I
31:53
just want to feel like I know the bike. Like I want to feel
31:55
like I can, I know the bike inside And
31:58
out. And She was like, well, you know, say more. Edited:
32:00
What I want to feel like when I could have been
32:02
on the box. Price. On the
32:04
bosses of eight hundred bucks for the class, You
32:06
don't trust me. I got to. And.
32:09
So I started to get serious. and why does I
32:11
wanna be a boss like. What
32:14
was that about? And other glad
32:16
when a man as people are going to be
32:18
as fast as are scary nobody I bosses at
32:20

32:22
adult other there may be right there are always
32:25
trying to get me they're not protecting me about
32:27
i want to be that So then I i
32:29
started to again in one of my first love
32:31
lot of as I searched. Talk through that says.
32:34
Alex Oh wait, I haven't ability
32:36
to redefine. A. Reader restructure words. I
32:38
get to do that. Everyday concerns
32:40
I give. You think about popular worth today?
32:42
You like when people say that slap I've never
32:44
heard of that I don't know what it means
32:46
for somebody pointed and now it's cool and now
32:48
my say it. Right? So make
32:50
a lack of do that and I started to
32:53
figure out at it to think a little bit
32:55
more of what does it mean to the Abbas
32:57
being the boss is someone who sets the standard.
32:59
That's what I want to do some my why
33:01
follow rules when we can solve real problems with
33:03
real people include those real people and so like
33:05
I want to set the standard I want instead
33:07
of. An. Instructor you know being
33:09
what it being an instructor that I am
33:11
I want to be an instructor that every
33:13
wants to be like and to me that
33:15
was important. That's what about the as a
33:17
set standard and then they establish the tone
33:19
when I have on when I get on
33:21
stage nightclub in I actually influence how everyone
33:24

33:26

Zoom works, You know it. He says
33:30
that you enter you have the power

34:00
is a big feel it's been about. Like
34:03
I said it's it's setting the center but
34:05
establish himself knowing that when you walk in
34:07
any room you can affect people. It out.
34:09
Fleets of choice affect them positively. That's. How.
34:11
How are you. A. Mob that. An
34:14

35:04

35:06

35:09
Good. Other that slap slap slap can
35:11
I say that are it's it's it's
35:13
like I said you to redefine etti
35:15
were like language visa big like language
35:17
is it had to be a certain
35:19
way and of my friend he says
35:21
is all the time is like actually
35:23
language isn't necessarily getting every period and
35:25
punctuation your grammar been great Is it
35:27
the person you're communicating with understand what
35:30
you're saying. You're. Doing it right. That's
35:32
language to do it right. I'll love it.
35:34
Yeah and we'd we do that a
35:36
lot on the podcast when we talk
35:38
about different words, the meaning and even
35:40
in our workshops with what is feedback
35:42
means you, what is guidance means you
35:45
and and realizing that even radical candor,
35:47
what is care personally unchallenged directly look
35:49
like for you some serious alleys when
35:51
you think about these ideas of radical
35:53
to enter of curing personally. And.
35:55
Challenge Directly. And
35:57
it sounds like your. Husband
35:59
has been a wonderful thought partner as
36:02
like those kinds of reflections and I'm
36:04
curious he to one of things like
36:06
to hear stories when somebody. Cared.
36:08
And challenge to us and is is there
36:10
any one A moment in your life where
36:12
you feel like. You. Really received
36:15
radical candor from someone. Who.
36:18
Maybe someone said something that span the little
36:20
bed and the moment. That was useful. for
36:23
the next ten years since. We talked
36:25
about less as the inter which he doesn't
36:27
live without. You know he likes. He's lived
36:29
out in the back the excess of five
36:31
years. He's a lovely. I would say that
36:33
it is actually a part. Of our relationship in
36:35
the back. And the reason
36:37
for that in this is Philo, his words,
36:39
not mine. Is. That that's the
36:41
only way to build trust. Is. An
36:44
act Like you know when I
36:46
say something. whether it's a compliment,
36:48
whether it's feedback, That. It's
36:50
coming from. Have faith that you can trust because I
36:52
know I have it like. right? Like
36:54
so for example, from the simplistic, it
36:56
was a vacation. Maybe they'll Two years
36:58
ago we went on vacation to Mexico.
37:01
And. I was getting dressed
37:03
and having a dinner on the beach. Oh my gosh,
37:05
we're so fancy to didn't just a the didn't on
37:07
the beach and I'm like what? and we just flew
37:09
in. I'm gonna be cozy like it's just us. Not
37:12
a big deal. So I
37:14
get dressed in this just that ebrace it's
37:16
orange is my favorite colors on stress is
37:18
very from see like over sized. The back
37:20
is our it's like a line skirt all
37:22
the way to the floor very like said
37:24
terry cloth materials of kind a heavy on
37:26
the great This is comfortable I feel good
37:28
we're just gonna sit on the beach and
37:30
it's just us Cycle now and I'm like
37:32
I am ready to go. How do I
37:34
look. And he was like. They've
37:37
never done. is it's different. see your point? Like being
37:39
direct and being mean or two different things. Yeah, we
37:41
never says anything that will hurt my feelings. He
37:44
goes to me. I don't think that dress
37:46
looks like how you think it looks. As
37:49
of what you mean, he's like. I
37:51
see it looks like how you think it
37:53
looks. I think you think that dress is
37:55
looks good and I would like to. He's
37:57
like so I don't think it looks like.
38:00
The way you think it looks. You
38:02
know and I don't know knowing you're Sol, that's
38:04
what you're going for it. So I was like
38:06
okay you know it's up were being cozy and
38:08
so I changed into it a little black dress.
38:10
That. Was the night that we
38:13
got engaged while yes, But. If
38:15
we'd had not like, let's say we had
38:17
developed a culture within our relationship. And here.
38:20
I felt like he was just being me or
38:22
he was just like trying to take a job
38:24
at me or I didn't trust the worth that
38:26
were coming out his mouth. Adults and there are
38:28
times where you're just like out of here are
38:30
like this: Hundred percent said he knew that I
38:32
like to look good Like that is a part
38:34
of. Like really a part of our grew up.
38:36
My grandma. Was A. When you step outside you
38:38
you look presentable. That's how we grew up right?
38:40
and so he know that it's important to me.
38:43
So when he said that and I eat alone
38:45
behold there photos being taken over secretly that don't
38:47
know because I'm getting engaged and I looked at
38:49
him once in a where Iraq we did the
38:51
whole thing and there's fireworks and it's on the
38:54
pieces as your name is crying in a few
38:56
to one was perfect. We're. Walking back to
38:58
the room and else I thank you for not lead. To Be
39:00
ready. For instance, I would have been really
39:02
upset. And he was like i know you so
39:04
well you should have been caesar What set out how
39:07
to respond. And
39:09
so I think that it in see or
39:12
hear question and I receive a lotta radical
39:14
kinda with him i relationship and it actually
39:16
has done the a great service because I
39:18
trust with my husband says is in my
39:20
benefit It's where my growth it's never too
39:22
break down or bring me down or maybe
39:24
so bad about myself ever. It's always things
39:27
that he knows that I want or what
39:29
to do and it's a line with deal
39:31
to me up. And so for
39:33
me that is like. Like
39:35
a said, it's it's second nature. I
39:39
will say to funny enough
39:41
ah I'm always assuming. That
39:44
it's. Delivered. From of
39:46
faith of. Being. Like
39:48
Radical in their teens are now
39:50
members unless. It's
39:52
our memories little let us know what's they
39:54
don't like a womaniser, what they do like,
39:57
but I assume it's always coming from with
39:59
a place. They'll let you know the let me
40:01
know. Gently. That they didn't
40:03
like. My. Class or that they'd it
40:05
lives the fact that I talked over a
40:07
song or that I didn't play is certain
40:09
songs and again always or that I got
40:12
a fun fact wrong which I'll get those
40:14
because I don't always get the fuck tax
40:16
rate and I'll say i think but don't
40:18
quote me and their us will have it
40:20
is up there always correct me and a
40:22
be from a ride that I taught or
40:24
years ago and I'm I four years later
40:26
sir. I can you imagine how
40:28
many people on T M me a few
40:30
don't think I know that sounds wrong or
40:32
I can't change it and did it. It's
40:34
out there and eat. There is times you
40:36
are like the million person that told me
40:38
that when I did the Whitney Houston right
40:40
a Dolly Parton wrote that song I got.
40:42
I said i think it was someone else
40:45
I don't remember who I sought wrote. I
40:47
will always love you. But. It
40:49
was Dolly Parton. Okay, You
40:51
now. Know as the record
40:53
straight and and to be clear
40:55
you know we are filled with
40:58
not only radically candid criticism but
41:00
so much radically candid Praise L
41:02
A for all of the toy
41:04
inspiration and teaching and love that
41:06
you bring into into the world.
41:08
You He just sold our new
41:11
my new favorite Radical Can. Or
41:13
story I loved that. Yeah, that's a good
41:15
sore. And this is someone who loves orange.
41:17
and we love orange. But I think the
41:19
reason why it's so beautiful is because he
41:21
knew you so well to know what would
41:23
be meaningful and important. To. You
41:25
and that was at least really caring
41:28
and sees Okay, let's not. Let's
41:31
not become of two months. So
41:39
with Alley I want to make
41:41
certain has brought up a few
41:43
times in our conversation around behavior
41:46
change and practice and so much
41:48
of what we try to encourage.
41:50
With folks practicing radical candor, sometimes
41:52
the the courage to have those
41:55
conversations and you are doing so
41:57
much each day which takes. Her.
42:00
In practice, what kids do you have
42:02
for folks who might struggle with building
42:04
radical kinda as a habit since you
42:06
know a lot about habit building with
42:08
tips to have low I think that
42:10
had a building. Is hard for anyone. Let's
42:13
let's be clear about that. So have you feeling.
42:15
In at the if you're in a space
42:17
and you feel like wow, how are these
42:19
people doing this and I'd I'd just can't
42:22
like or I'm not. Trust.
42:24
Me that we've all been in that space
42:26
and or. Is. In that space when
42:28
it comes to something for us is a
42:30
building a habit is hard one of the
42:32
ways that I always. Encourage myself
42:34
truly. And folks around me is the
42:36
put it in front of you. I.
42:39
Do it again. I feel like I target the
42:42
father died hosts it notes and bunch of posts.
42:44
It suddenly. I. Like opposed it
42:46
nose clean. write it down the stick it in
42:48
front of these ticket on her desk ticket on
42:50
your baby craved he was when you go pick
42:52
up your baby out at a crappy say that
42:54
posted know when it's in your bathroom and your
42:56
mirror if you will have a locker you're driving
42:58
a car and you sometimes and you're in a
43:00
funny place and you have the with that whatever
43:02
that thing that covers the sun advise our yeah
43:04
i think you have an advisor. You. Put
43:07
a post that know of things that
43:09
you want to build a habit around
43:11
and it's that constant reminder right? We
43:13
talk about social media and I put
43:15
myself in an hour time limit. Some
43:18
some good at the our and sometimes
43:20
on that. But. The point of that
43:22
is it is what I recognize as that
43:24
I'm stealing myself every think. It's called a
43:26
feed your Instagram feed. It's right in the
43:28
words. You're feeding yourself all these things: How
43:30
can you watch a scary movie and be
43:33
shocked that you had scary drink snow you
43:35
were going i'm you just said yourself subconscious
43:37
your movie if you look at her thing.
43:39
On. My bed keep going. but don't
43:41
be shocked when. The next day you're like I
43:43
was. So. Terrified. I don't know,
43:45
I was so uncomfortable sleeping sick. That's
43:48
what you said yourself. Whatever you feed
43:50
yourself, that's exactly what's going. To ruminate
43:52
in your mind and what most likely you
43:54
will we going to teach. It'll show up
43:56
in your word choice. It would be your
43:58
head it and so. For. Me
44:00
that easiest way to build a habit
44:02
either when as. Hard as a. Put it right
44:04
in front of your face. It. You want
44:07
to run it indoors? Messing.
44:09
Bible up on track for five hundred my
44:11
twenty year my him extra bedroom because and
44:13
I leave the door open because any some
44:15
of our family were looking. At me it's
44:18
a reminds you how to get on.
44:20
For. Remind you that I love it and
44:22
so I do. I do that often I
44:24
put things in front of me to remind
44:27
me I have water bottles around my house.
44:29
I saw com as often as a lot
44:31
about. Oh in every room does. It's a
44:33
sit there you go It's a tangible reminder
44:35
to Cedric. Being dehydrated actually makes you Frankie
44:38
and me cranky is no good anyone in
44:40
the world. So again to be my best
44:42
self to build a habit I put it
44:44
in front of me and and that's exactly
44:46
why do of for working out I say
44:49
put on. L it on out and.
44:51
Just. For not, you have to put you off his address.
44:53
To sit it on washing dishes, Because
44:55
it becomes less scary, you become familiar with
44:58
it. and so for me those are things
45:00
as like it's whatever you're feeding yourself. Usually
45:02
that's the first that. Allowing. Yourself
45:04
to get familiar with it and then
45:06
for you to engage and eventually build
45:08
that habit. And so I do that.
45:10
Also. I
45:13
love that! So helpful! I also
45:15
love your five minutes. You just have to do it
45:17
for five minutes because once or five minutes and. It's
45:19
much easier to keep know him well as as.
45:22
He has any view. I mean life's too short of
45:24
you. Don't enjoy the workout, doesn't get out of it
45:26
like know what's holding you to? It's once you get
45:28
in any sort you get through the warm up Are
45:30
you get halfway through the one of the like. this
45:32
isn't this, that's almost as you like. I really liked
45:35
the some. And you lend the music
45:37
care you or the worth of the instructor carries.
45:39
Of five minutes go a long way
45:41
for solar yeah and I love the
45:43
idea of you really do create and
45:45
of multi sensory experiences save got the
45:47
music, you've got the movement. even with
45:49
Love Squad which on a spend a
45:51
few moments on talking about words and
45:54
so I love how year it's It's
45:56
just like a multi disciplinary multi sensory
45:58
experience that your korea that we don't
46:00
have to just rely on sort of
46:02
sheer willpower. There are other resources. That
46:04
we can access and other people community
46:06
to tell me about the origin of
46:08
Love Squad and and where it is
46:10
now. Yes, I love this. Question of
46:13
three things to say. The last was or just sort
46:15
of started. I was sad of the station in lack
46:17
of resources. I moved to New York in college. I
46:19
didn't know if I knew I wanted to be a
46:21
dancer. I knew that the I think didn't make money
46:23
so. I. Had to figure out how to make
46:25
money at. I also couldn't go to these
46:28
events where you know folks will be getting
46:30
young folks to be getting together and getting
46:32
making friends as learning about true building skills
46:34
and out that. Those. That position
46:36
and lack of entry I decided to
46:38
criticize myself a created a website. And.
46:40
I talked about things that I knew I don't
46:42
get out of bed without pressing snooze in college
46:45
right now. I know
46:47
how to except know as a dancer I was
46:49
gigging meaning I was going to audition and I
46:51
would get the know you know at some moments
46:53
and would hurt my feelings of how do you
46:56
deal with those notes And eventually Adidas felt the
46:58
website and they we shouted said you're writing about
47:00
women empowerment I didn't even know that I was
47:02
wide writing about women empowerment. I thought Weber's like
47:05
me I want to talk to them or whoever
47:07
is dealing with things that I dealt with work
47:09
that I'm dealing with. I. Want to talk to
47:11
them and so they really can you create some
47:13
some women a comic. Clinton's presence I
47:16
did, which was cool and.
47:18
I decided maybe this is a thing I created
47:20
a and event of like full set of us
47:22
just connecting on social media and to the website.
47:24
what do we all met up and at this
47:27
time I had fallen three thousand followers on Instagram
47:29
which is a lot of people but not out
47:31
of them anywhere. So I. I. Went
47:33
out and I found a space for free and I
47:35
got you don't get faster free house Just hustling to
47:37
make it and I became an event and or without
47:39
any. Experience in our you city
47:42
in a heart. City and so
47:44
I invited everyone our I said you know I'm
47:46
going to put this event it'll be free so
47:48
that you don't need resources to come here it's
47:50
you have that entry it's free. Tell a friend
47:52
bring someone with a city spot for the with
47:55
a small fee. And I opened
47:57
it up and with in like fifteen seconds with
47:59
seventy five. The ball I got. I like it
48:01
was like fifty people signed up with a seventy five.
48:03
Earth and Weightless. Know that? Okay, great. This. Is
48:06
good Yeah I had the as like may have
48:08
the event and he had to face a thirty
48:10
and I tell this story off and it was
48:12
eight thirty on the.know that you all have to
48:14
get out. Because. I don't have any money because
48:16
they're going to charge me as and I don't have any
48:18
money and I was like i love that your networking and.
48:21
I'll Be Things In the event consisted of me
48:23
sitting down with a girlfriend who built her brain.
48:25
And. She I'd just moderator the
48:28
conversation. And she shared. So she did it.
48:30
You know that now talk the most yourself network
48:32
has yet to meet someone who's than other. Okay
48:35
now that you networking your networking way too long
48:37
I knew you'd like college or that about half
48:39
an hour in a lie a lie and of
48:41
inviting everyone who signed up and the wait list
48:43
because I felt bad running away. So with the
48:46
fire code and I'd it more. Like,
48:49
you know? What about the. So. After that
48:51
of I said you know what? This is
48:53
great. Let's do this again. And so love
48:55
what was birth of the curiosity for conversation,
48:57
conversation at the catalyst for change right? We
48:59
know that no big decision is created in
49:01
our lives without a conversation internally and externally,
49:03
with a loved one, with a friend, with
49:05
a mentor, sometimes with a stranger and so
49:07
as like while they're this is something, it's
49:09
something profound and I want to do It
49:12
Doesn't have to be vague, It can continue to
49:14
be small. So I kept doing as
49:16
a continue to do events around New
49:18
York City. We done some in Chicago
49:20
like in London. Very small events and
49:22
it has been very beneficial. We are
49:24
all ages so it's not just like
49:26
oh folks in college it soaks in
49:28
college. Looking to get into the cruise
49:30
base is soak that are you know
49:32
parents that just actually are making maybe
49:34
the. Toying with idea of getting
49:36
back into the work space for them
49:38
to meet each other to share their
49:41
experiences and it's been very very successful
49:43
Under the second thing that I went
49:45
to say which is an. What?
49:47
You've had a touchstone and I was
49:49
kind of talking to my mom yesterday
49:51
about this. The sensory thing is the
49:54
effectiveness of words. Sometimes.
49:57
Some. Of will say something in a way that
49:59
will hit. You will get you
50:01
and you'll cry. it'll hit
50:03
you. A also triggered and
50:05
I recognize that. We. Have
50:08
that power and sometimes that nuance.
50:10
That. Personal Nuanced is an explored into our time.
50:13
I'm I'm a mom. When you say these
50:15
words actually like the trigger meets we have
50:17
been great opposition. Know that when you say
50:19
that to do. We. Role Play A
50:21
lot of genius. Our conversation with someone else so
50:23
we were having it, she was having and me
50:25
as I as if I was a stranger and
50:27
other. But when you say that to me, it's
50:29
triggered me and I would react this way. I'm
50:31
not sure they will, but like just so you
50:33
know, maybe there's a different word to his words
50:35
for to and I think that we forget that.
50:38
Are words can be very
50:40
impactful in. A good way and sometimes
50:43
in a not so good. And I oftentimes
50:45
bring this up when I talk and that
50:47
they're playing around in love. Glide is that
50:49
the best marketer like we talk about brand
50:51
reputation and what? You when I leave this
50:54
call how you feel about me the best
50:56
Recently the best brand that has ever set
50:58
foot on the earth is your Grandma. Grandma
51:01
has done it well as she hits all
51:03
of your offense to usually smells good. She
51:06
has a smell your grandma use not so
51:08
that's like she makes it taste like it
51:10
tastes knew you were in a comfortable space
51:12
for everything looks good. Like all here's your
51:15
senses are by being right now in in
51:17
the best space rights and if enough people
51:19
have great Grandma's but no criminal charges great
51:21
that's his left eye so like might when
51:24
I think of my grandma like while she
51:26
hits all the senses and that is what
51:28
a Great Britain does right. They tickle all.
51:30
Of your senses in some ways and I
51:33
think that which we have to keep in
51:35
mind that that's exactly what. we
51:37
want to continue to and that we talk about him of
51:39
lot for sore. For. I am. I
51:41
love that was a happy way
51:43
to wrap up our way. We
51:45
love talking to you. I do
51:48
a little are the embodiment of
51:50
radical candor, thank. You so much no
51:52
thank you for having me. I truly appreciate
51:54

51:56
now I went as one more question if
51:58
you could be beyond your wildest dreams coming
52:00
back to us. In. Three years.
52:03
What? Would we be talking about. Wow.
52:06
I'm. I don't know. I hope
52:08
some of the same things I think. For.
52:11
Me being at villas on being elicit
52:13
a show. Like being. With
52:15
my has been being with my friends I do think.
52:17
History. Is.
52:19
A sign of success not always
52:21
but seeing some place at for
52:23
a long time. In. A
52:26
being happy during that time while you're there show
52:28
that is a lesser for success that I always
52:30
try to have. So I do hope. In.
52:32
Three years and I'm actually saying that I'm doing
52:34
a lot of the same stuff now. And
52:37
if somehow I became a diplomat. That.
