Podcast Transcription

Intro: Welcome to “Flippin’ Off,” a purpose driven podcast about flipping houses and making a difference.

Melina: All right. So, Melina Boswell here, co-founder and CEO of New Wealth Advisors Club. And today is a, well, it’s a first, first of all, I want to acknowledge this is episode number 101. So, it’s like we’re over a century, that’s really big. So, it’s like, you know, 100. I was thinking it could just…there are so many new things. It’s like a fresh start, a new way, a new thing, 101, episode number 101. And so we are doing something that we’ve never done before. I’m sitting at the table inside of the office in Riverside, that we lovingly refer to as the bubble. You know why call it the bubble, right, guys?

Everyone: Yeah.

Melina: Yeah. So, it’s because everybody here in the bubble, everybody can see you. And we’ve never recorded a podcast, first of all, here at this table, but this table is actually has a lot of meaning and it has, right, Oscar?

Oscar: Absolutely. And so, there’s been a lot. This table, we talk about it a lot. A lot of things happen here at this table. And so today I am pulling a big giant surprise to my mentorship group. So, we came in, today was day 10, for week 10 I guess, of our 10 weeks of mentorship together. And so, we always celebrate by having dinner together, enjoying each other. And tonight, we were doing that and I decided last minute to record a podcast and invite all of the mentees here. So, hi Dr. Joe. How’s it going? Hey, so we’re recording a podcast. Yeah. So, have a seat and just kind of go with the flow. So, it’s what we do. And so you should see how everybody’s faces when everybody walked in, I said, “Hey, would you like a glass of wine?” “Oh no, thank you.” And then I said, “Surprise, we’re going to record a podcast.” “Give me that wine.” So, what I’m going to do right now is I’m going to ask, I’m going to go around the table and ask each one of you to introduce yourselves. Just say your name. That’s all we need you to do. And then we’ll just continue the conversation going. So, we’ll start over here with Evelyn.

Evelyn: Hi, everyone. I’m Evelyn Madden.

Melina: Thank you.

Matt: Hi, my name is Matt Collins.

Oscar: Oh, hi, I’m Oscar.

Jasmine: Hi, my name is Jasmine.

Jeff: Jeff Davis.

Dan: Dan Caterino, Costa Mesa, California.

Sally: Hi, I’m Sally Elder Christiansen.

Christian: Hey guys. It’s Christian Rios.

Timothy: Hello there, Timothy Bruzzesi Jr.

Melina: Timothy Bruzzesi Jr?

Sally: Italian.

Melina: Yes. So, I thought it would be cool… Oftentimes, I like to… So I have a couple of purposes and intentions behind this podcast today. One of them is to introduce you guys to the club and to the world out there. Being in my mentorship, many of you were here, your RPP in March. And then we went right into lockup, right into COVID. And so for the first time ever, we did our 10 weeks via Zoom, not in person, which I had never done before. And I think that there was some really cool things that happened in our time together. So, it’s really ironic that tonight is the first time we get to be together in person. So, I wanted us to talk about what we got from the mentorship group. If everybody, I’m going to ask each one of you to just share one takeaway that you took from the 10 weeks that you think would serve the people listening. And also to introduce you to the club. Because one of the things I talk about often is I don’t have too many leaders, right? I’m always in a shortage of leadership, of real leadership. And I believe that people that step up into the 10-week mentorship are leaders. And I believe that that is a lot of what you’ve been training for. And maybe you haven’t thought about it that way, but that is the other intention for me is to stretch you to make you feel very, very uncomfortable because you can’t grow when you’re totally comfortable. And I know whether you have a goal of public speaking or not, it doesn’t really matter. Doing these kinds of exercises and these things, getting you outside your comfort zone is where you’re going to grow. You will be a completely different person than you’ve ever been before. So, congratulations. So, who would like to start? I’m going to just give you the option. If somebody would like to just speak first and maybe share their one takeaway, if not, I will definitely call on you. So actually, okay. All right, tell us… So, you know what? Christian could start too, maybe, simply because you know this is the first time Christian has ever co-led the 10 weeks with me. So, he had a unique perspective this time after going through the mentorship and reading the book, I don’t know how many times, right? And leaving it out. And so, maybe you’d want to share your experience.

Christian: Absolutely. So for me, I’ve been reminiscing in this conversation. And I think what came to me is when I first did the mentorship group years ago, I was kind of one of Dave’s, like, guinea pigs of the mentorship group. And it was funny, I think I was probably about 19-years-old and the biggest thing that sticks out to me is big Mo. You know, the habits, the momentum, everything didn’t really catch on for me until I was about 21, you know. So that’s I guess for people listening that’s biggest takeaway. Like don’t expect something right away. And if you go back to, I think on podcast number 6 where I was 22 years old. And that’s when I talk about a little bit more of my story. And then, you know, that’s when I was buying my property and a lot of like the big Mo was starting to catch on. And now I’ve just been, you know, really writing that out through the habits, through everything I learned from the mentorship. And it led me to be in this blessed position to co-lead with you and Oscar and, you know, share a little bit of the wisdom I’ve gotten from obviously all these years of being around the club and, you know, being around this amazing organization. So for me, I’ve just been really reminiscing and thinking back to when I was, you know, 19, 20-years-old and those little habits, all the little things that we train on through the 10 weeks that make the difference for years and years to come.

Melina: That’s great. That’s awesome. Excellent. Okay. Cool. It’s been really fun for me too. It’s been really fun for me to have you, you know, here.

Christian: It’s incredible. It’s an honor for sure. And I thank you guys for, you know, letting me in. It’s cool also, like Melina said, it’s been on Zoom, but coming today, all of us giving hugs, it’s like we know each other personally. We’ve really gotten close together through this time, so I’m looking forward to, you know, continuing to work with you guys too.

Melina: Yeah, me too. Excellent. All right. So, who wants to share? All right.

Dan: Oh, I don’t think he used these words exactly, but I think what he was talking about was from the book is the dedication and the main word is consistency. And that’s probably why it took, like, two or three years from the 19-year-old to the 22-year-old because it takes hard work to give up certain things for, like, the book, you know, instead of getting up at whatever time and you’ve made a point, you got up at 5:30 or whatever to have the extra 15 minutes or 30 minutes to do something that he felt was constructive. So, like most things are, I can’t remember the exact number, but you have to do something 60 times or whatever till, you know, you’re in grams in your brain. Make it like an automatic thing that…

Melina: Habitual. That’s what we’re looking for. Habitual. Awesome. So, Tim, you said you’d start, so what’s your…

Timothy: Well, you’re right on cue with habitual. I guess one of the biggest takeaways is habits. Just forming good habits and sticking to the habits, but I think even bigger than that, bigger than habits and consistency, I think it was expectation. And not my expectation of what I thought this was going to turn out to be, but my expectation on other people, other things, other relationships. For instance, like my brother, we’ve had a rocky relationship, haven’t really spoke over the last two years and I have a big issue with him as a parent because he’s not really there. He’s kind of non-existent. And at the end of the day, now I realize after a conversation with Melina, now I realize that it wasn’t his issue at all. He can do whatever he wants to do. He can be whatever kind of parent he wants to be. That’s on him. My expectation is for him to be there for his son, to always be around, not to be absent, like the amount of time he’s been absent. And it was further than outside of just the relationship with my brother and what I think he should be as a parent. I’ve started to use the expectations on pretty much everything. Like if I get upset with my wife or my niece or anything, I can always go back to, you know what? That’s my expectation on them. Why am I getting upset? I mean, I shouldn’t be upset at all. That’s what I think they should be doing. What if they think something completely different? But bigger than anything was how it impacted my outlook on my brother for sure. For sure.

Melina: Wow. That’s really cool. That’s really, really cool. Yeah. Thank you for that.

Timothy: Thank you for opening my eyes to that.

Melina: That’s really awesome. I appreciate that. So now, because, you know, it is interesting when you can reframe like the challenges that you have with somebody in a relationship and that’s what was happening. And I was saying, so, most of the time we are disappointed is because we have unmet expectations that we never communicated to somebody else and yet we’re over here getting upset, but they have no idea about, you know, what’s going on with you. We don’t know how to communicate that. And how reasonable is it to have an expectation of somebody else that isn’t in alignment for them at all, with them at all? And how you can free them, you free him. Which gives you freedom.

Timothy: It’s occupied a lot of time, a lot of space in my head for the over the last like two, three years. And now it’s kind of dealing with it head-on, looking at it from this perspective, it’s like, wow, so this is all on me, all of this is on me.

Melina: It’s all your conquer.

Timothy: Yeah. He can still be whatever he wants to be, but at the end of the day, that’s what I think he should be. And yes, it’s those expectations.

Melina: That’s really good. Awesome. Thank you for that. That’s pretty cool. Very cool. That could be life-changing.

Timothy: It is. It has been. And it will continue to be.

Melina: Yeah. It will. That’s great. Awesome. Thank you. All right. Who else?

Dan: I’ll step in.

Melina: All right. Thanks Dan.

Dan: Yeah, thank you. So, you know, as Tim said, you know, talked about habits and then taking it to a higher level. I had to, some time over the last nine weeks, to reflect on habits, which I think I entered the program with some pretty good habits and I was thankful that we were able to fine-tune those and make them even better and stronger. It was a great opportunity to spend with everyone. I want to thank you. I found myself checking my preparedness, you know, having habits is one thing. Professional athletes will take offseason and they’ll come in, you know, ready to swing at that ball, you know, but are they mentally prepared? Having a habit and being mentally prepared are two different things. And so, I started to think about that. Something amazing happened to me. I got invited to a dinner, and I’ll keep this short, but it was with a world champion Motorcross guy by the name of David Bailey who had a divided life between two parents when he grew up as a young kid. And one of them happened to be a Motorcross star and he ended up liking the stepfather a little bit more than the father. And it was hard for him, but he was such a strong-willed person. Rather than using it as a negative in his life. He went out and became a six-time world champion through the 80s series, the early 80s. And accomplished what most, he’s one of the top 10 Motorcross riders, ever known to man, he went across the world and became a world motocross. But in January 11th, 1987, he had a terrible crash and was paralyzed, which changed his life and took it in a different direction. But a person like that with the great habits and the great strength that he had soon found that he was racing Navy SEALs who were also on wheelchairs, and became an iron man champion, beating the top handicapped people in the world, riding his wheelchair across country and having all this video. And after it was all over, he’s about my age and he was sitting there about 12 years ago. He started to reflect on all of everything that he did. And as he leaned back inside and he looked up, a book that someone gave him the day that he got in his accident, the next day, was on the shelf and he pulled it down and started reading it, you know, and it was the Bible. He called and made some contacts with some people. And to end the story here, one of the things he told me after the dinner was pretty amazing. He said, “You know, all of everything that I went through, I learned something.” He goes, “All of my habits that were so excellent that made me a champion. I missed the number one thing. I didn’t know who I was. I wasn’t prepared to take it. And this, all of this, that happened to me, was somebody greater than I, grabbing me and putting me in a place to slow me down just a little bit to see the future. And it took me 50 years and I love what I did and it was pretty exciting.” So I just want to say that I believe that this group has that heart and it’s gotten me excited because that’s why I invested into this group. I believe that heart is here.

Melina: That’s awesome. Thank you. Thank you so much for that. That’s great. Cool. All right. Who else wants to share? Who wants to go? Okay, Matt’s going to go. All right, Matt.

Matt: So, I think in the first week of the program you said, I remember, “This program, 10-weeks program, it is nothing about real estate, but it is all about real estate.” And it confused me a little bit, but in the beginning and then, later on, I started realizing that by the sentence of Oscar, Oscar said, “This program will transform you.” I remember your sentence clearly, and my expectation was kind of how, how it is going to happen? And by the time when I’m walking with this program, I realized that I am postponing a lot of stuff and not putting my thoughts to the action because my thought process was not mature enough, especially for according to my goals. So, I find out first, okay, everybody has goals, but eventually, life is distracting you. Family sometimes distracting you or job is distracting you from family, and no matter what happens, I believe I learn I’m going to stick with my goals and I’m going to…I have to. And then when I stick my goals, this next thing is going to come. Whatever you think or whatever you feel, put into action. I think what you are saying is whatever you think, whatever you feel, you’re a good person, you’re a smart man, without putting in action makes no sense. That’s my take from this 10-weeks program. It is very well worth it. Honestly, as you said, it’s a big investment for me as well, but it is well worth it. Thank you so much.

Melina: It’s great. Thank you. Thank you for that. I appreciate that. That’s right. All the knowledge in the world, right? If you don’t do it.

Matt: It’s an entertainment.

Melina: It is an entertainment, isn’t it?

Christian: Hi, this is Christian Rios. As many of you know, I have been a member of New Wealth Advisors Club for over 7 years and got started when I was 17 years old with absolutely no real estate experience. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned from being in industry is the need for authentic relationships.

Thanks for listening to the “Flippin’ Off” podcast.

Melina: It is an entertainment, isn’t it? Very good. Very good. I liked that. I liked that. And do you feel now that not taking action is an option?

Matt: No. No way. Because life is not long right now. We see it, COVID or something else.

Melina: That’s right.

Matt: It is suddenly taken away from your hands. And so, just implement it. Nothing wrong with implementation.

Melina: Nope. Nothing wrong with that. That’s good. Good. Yeah. All right. Do you want to share? Evelyn, all right.

Evelyn: Yeah. I really love all the takeaways. I’m right there with you guys. I think actually at this table I was sitting with Oscar and I was spitting out all of what I wanted to do and where I wanted my business to go. And I come from a consulting background so I was very much like, “Okay, here’s the implementation plan. I’m going to get going.” And he’s like, “You know, sometimes you need to slow down in order to speed up.” And I don’t, when he first said it, I got really frustrated because I’m like, all right, I’ve been told to slow down enough, like, I’m ready to go. And then coming into this mentorship program and really getting, you always say it Melina, but looking in the mirror cause I avoided working on myself more and felt like I’m fully capable of helping other people and leading teams and doing all these things and being a good leader and then quickly realized, “Oh my gosh, I’m a terrible leader. I can’t even like look at my own self in the mirror.” And I think for anybody new who is sitting and wondering if the mentorship group is the right move for them, I’d say just ask yourself like, why is it not? And ask yourself why are you not comfortable just accelerating your own personal growth. Because I think it really does start with, yes, this program attracts leaders, but you have to change. Your heart has to change who you are inside. Because otherwise, you’re just going to be a hurt person trying to help hurt people. And that doesn’t really work.

Melina: Hurt people hurt people.

Evelyn: Hurt people hurt people. And it’s not going to be producing any change or anything good from it. And, yeah, I would just challenge anybody if you know you’re a leader, or even if you don’t feel like you’re a leader, push yourself. Take this next step. I don’t think that anybody isn’t qualified to join this group and to challenge themselves. And yeah, I guess that was my biggest takeaway is just not, don’t underestimate yourself. And keep pushing yourself. Make yourself uncomfortable. It’s willing or it’s so worth it to be willing to sacrifice comfort. And this program will definitely make you, won’t make you comfortable, but as we all are sitting here kind of like nervous. Yeah. I think it’s good and take the next step.

Melina: So, do you feel, Evelyn, like what I heard you say is, “I had a blind spot”?

Evelyn: Oh yeah.

Melina: “And I didn’t know it.” So, there is, like, it’s the idea that this is nothing about real estate, but everything about real estate, right? And you might remember me telling you guys that 90% of real estate is in your head, 10% of it, if even 10% of it, is technical skill, right? And so what happens is, I think we forget that. We forget that we’re looking for that one edge, right? And it’s like, well, actually here’s where you got a little bit of a blind spot. You don’t even see it. And that edge is seeing that and maybe working on that. And then the other things will begin to… Right?

Evelyn: Yeah. Because I think we all try to take on our own junk in our life and be your own superhero. And then really it’s tough, but it’s also very humbling to sit in a room of people and hear everyone’s stories and hear their walks of life and your failures and your successes. And then leaders who are willing to hold our hands through it all and just, you know, help us lift up that mirror even though we really don’t want to like look at it.

Melina: It’s like, “Oh, you get a bigger view.”

Evelyn: It’s like, okay, thanks. But I think it’s well worth it because it is going to transform your life and sort of put you on the right track.

Melina: Awesome. Thank you. Thank you for that. That’s good. All right. Hi. Oh, you want to go Sally?

Sally: Yeah, I think I’m going to piggyback a little bit on what Evelyn said.

Melina: Great.

Sally: The takeaway message for me was I think the importance of developing yourself personally, personal development. I think that’s what was the message. I agree. I think I had a lot of blind spots. I was very unconscious of a lot of fears, I had holes in my life and I think this 10-week program gave me the opportunity to kind of like, look at myself and really sit in my emotions, which I didn’t do a lot of in the past. Whatever emotion I had, it took me so long to figure out what it was and it was uncomfortable and I’d just ignore it and then continue, you know, galloping on that whole list to somewhere. But nowhere, really. I’ve done how you said in this book. So, for me I think if I’d have to tell anyone, you know, why do this program or why even join this club? I think here you would learn that your fulfillment and your success is really kind of tied into you developing yourself as a whole rounded person, and you can’t get there until you put some work into working on yourself.

Melina: Isn’t that weird?

Sally: Yeah.

Christian: I think Sally said something so huge where it’s like about the consciousness. I think ultimately we’re, like, we make people realize there’s like a different level of consciousness too, and there’s no price to that. Like for me, I know when I’m starting to kind of, like, get on autopilot and that’s such a dangerous place to be in, you know. And I think maybe people listening, you might not even know if you’re on autopilot until you know that you’re on autopilot. So today, like for me, I started going upstairs and then downstairs and I’m like, what the heck am I doing? Like, all right, it’s time to get to work. And I’m, like, literally telling myself, “All right, time to get to work,” because there’s so much stuff going on in my house. And then I felt myself just kind of going on autopilot, but knowing your habits, knowing, you know, what you have to do and ultimately trying to get to a different level of consciousness is huge. And I think as, like, top performers, leaders, that’s what separates people from, you know, being achievers and just kind of getting through life.

Melina: Totally agree with that.

Sally: And fulfillment. I think, because, you know, we talked about how people can, you know, you can earn a lot of money, but are they truly fulfilled? And I realized that’s it’s the fulfillment has to do a little bit with your level of consciousness and working on yourself and yeah, I think is it for me.

Melina: For sure. For sure. That’s like everybody. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Thank you for that, Sally. Hi Jasmine.

Jasmine: Now that everybody took all the good stuff.

Melina: Yeah. That was definitely, it’s true.

Christian: That was intentional.

Jasmine: Well, I didn’t know what I was getting myself into, I didn’t know what to expect or anything. I come from a family business, so I found success with a group of people. So, I was like, okay, well then I need another group of people if I’m going to find success somewhere else, can’t do it on my own. And I needed good people. So, I was like, okay, well, mentorship sounds like the place to find good people. And I was right. Thankfully. I think the group of you who I found here are really good. Yeah, I think my biggest takeaway was, it’s going to sound lame, but, like, tracking and just, like, sleep walking through your decisions.

Melina: That’s not lame.

Jasmine: I don’t think you realize, like, I feel like, “Okay, I did this, this and that. I’m good. Like, I’m on the track, you know, I’m doing everything I’m supposed to be doing.” But then when you really, because we were told to break down our day, you know. And I’m like, “Wow, I have a lot of time that I’m not doing… I thought I was having a really productive day, but actually, I have, like, three hours of time that I don’t even know what I was doing.”

Melina: That’s the worst.

Jasmine: Yeah. And I have no idea where that time went. It just, it’s gone now and I can’t get it back. So, now I need to plan better tomorrow, you know. And tracking was something that I didn’t know I needed. I was like, what do I need to track for? I know what I’m doing. I know what I’m, you know, I know what I’m eating. I know how much I’m exercising. I know this, I know that. And I think I was like, “Wow, those calories add up.”

Melina: I don’t even think calories and COVID count. I really… I’m going to go with, they don’t count. I mean, that’s going to be my story.

Jasmine: I was looking at the back of a box and, like, the serving size is small. And the calories that I’m eating are more than I thought. So, you know, just tracking really helps you realize what you’re actually doing instead of what you thought you were doing.

Melina: So, good.

Oscar: Yeah. Sleep walking through your habits. That was excellent. If you think about that, we all do it. And what a mistake. Some people don’t recognize it.

Melina: Big mistake. Very true.

Oscar: That was awesome.

Jasmine: Yeah. I liked the compound effect as far as, you know, even though it’s something super small, it’s going to get so much bigger if you don’t correct it. And I wasn’t correcting a lot of stuff in my life before I realized everything that I was doing and like tracking it and detailing out my day. Yeah. So now I feel like I’m more on the right path. Obviously it’s a journey that I’m going to have to continue and continue to correct. But I think with this group, you guys will hold me accountable.

Melina: I think so too. I think so too. So it’s actually, Oscar, did you, thank you, Jasmine. That was brilliant. Powerful. And just so you guys know, Jasmine wasn’t going to have a glass of wine until she learned we were coming in here. Did you…?

Jasmine: Today, I am.

Melina: Yeah. So, Oscar, did you want to add anything? Did you want to share anything or…?

Oscar: I think for me the, because there’s this thing that happens for us, that are leading it is, we actually, selfishly I think in a way we get something from each one of you and, there’s a lot of takeaways for us as well that it may be difficult for you to kind of wrap your brain around it sometimes because there is an opportunity to always grow, and there’s different perspectives. So, when we have conversations with each of you, there’s a different perspective that we receive and then we are able to take that perspective and then we pass it on to someone else. So something that, maybe a conversation I had with Evelyn serves Sally, and then Dan with Tim and all that and with other people outside. So, there’s this ongoing ripples that are continuing to happen from these sessions that we have together for 10 weeks. And it’s really cool to experience you guys, there’s something that’s really powerful to experience every one of you in your own way. So, I just want to thank you guys for participating, for really being in, and being a part of it and contributing to each other. Because, you know, I see this group, because I’ve been in other groups and your group texting, communication has reached a different level as well. And it’s really cool to see you call each other out on certain things, right? And then jokingly, I give the nudge and do things. So, I get what Jasmine’s referring to that, with this group, they’re going to hold me accountable and you see that, you see that quite a bit. Yeah.

Sally: We’re going to challenge her. I think, I want to apologize…well, I felt like I needed to apologize because I know in our last meeting with Amir, you know, I kind of said, “Well, okay, she must walk his partner, so you’re going to be the one that Amir’s going to…and afterwards I’m like…

Melina: That’s so funny. That is a classic.

Jasmine: Yeah. So, now I have to learn all about Facebook ads.

Melina: Oh, good. Wonderful. I feel you’re fully… I think so too. Fully capable, fully capable. And it is interesting Andres isn’t here with us.

Oscar: No, unfortunately he couldn’t on here.

Melina: Well, he couldn’t be here. So, but I think, I was thinking about this, one of the things that I think is fun to do is to name our group.

Jasmine: We never do that.

Melina: No, we’ve…no, I usually… No. And not all groups end up coming up with a name, but I think I would just, you know, usually I wait until the end to have this conversation. So, I mean, to me it seems like, you know, has to do something with COVID or quarantine. It’s got to, but how do we not surround it around lockup or do you know, like something like that. So what are your, so, let’s throw it out there. What do you guys think?

Jeff: The Naturals.

Melina: Oh, the Naturals. Hm, where’d you get that? What are you thinking that…?

Oscar: It’s on the Purell bottle. Where did you get that wisdom? Somebody else came up with it.

Melina: Somebody else came up with it. Got it.

Oscar: Tim has given it a lot of thought.

Timothy: I’m usually quick but then…

Melina: Yeah, I know, you usually do. Yeah. You usually come up with something good.

Timothy: I don’t know. COVID crew. Keep it basic. We’ll build from there.

Melina: I mean, we could go with COVID crew.

Christian: Caged lions.

Jasmine: Can’t be tamed.

Melina: Yeah, I don’t know, we could still, maybe we’ll just continue this conversation over dinner, but we can, I wanted to kind of throw it out there for us to be considering now, but for me, yeah, this has been a very special group. You guys have been really, really special. One of the coolest things for me that I got to experience that I never did before was a lot of more one-on-one time with you guys on Zoom. That opened up something for me that I’ve never been able to, well, not that I wasn’t able to, just not something that was ever in my knowing, you know, it wasn’t in my toolbox. Right. Of, “Oh, we could totally meet on Zoom and do one-on-one time together.” And so, that was a huge takeaway and a plus for me with each one of you this last 10 weeks and I’m expecting that we will continue that. I hope that, you know, we do, well, that’s my expectation though. So, that’s my expectation of each one of you. Just so you know.

Christian: I’ll sign up tonight.

Melina: Okay, good, good. I think we should definitely continue to do that. But you guys have been a… I gave, so everybody doesn’t know, but you guys were given an assignment and a big giant frog to eat. And it wasn’t even a clear frog. It was a, you know, it was an idea that I threw at you and you guys have taken it and run and turned it into something so much bigger than I think I ever anticipated. And I think I have this feeling there’s going to be another podcast in the future about that, about that and what we learned and what we were able to accomplish on this group project that is semi-secret and that will be our little, our very special experiment and experience together. So, I want to thank you guys for that, and thank you for staying in. And even when it was difficult, I know sometimes it was late at night and we were doing a whole bunch of different things and you went with my idea, which I told you I’m throwing this out there. And for me, it’s wonderful to be able to explore in those ways with you because I know that’s how high functioning people operate. You have an idea, you throw it against the wall and see what happens. Chop it up. So, I’m honored to be able to do that with you guys. It’s been a lot of fun and I think there’s gonna be something extraordinary coming out of it. So, anyway, what’s that?

Jeff: We’ve got a mixture of the baby boomers, and the zoomers.

Melina: Oh, the zoomers and the boomers. Oh! So I see where you’re going. You see, we can start to really go with this idea.

Timothy: Zoomers is good!

Melina: That’s very good. Very good. Very good. All right, well…

Oscar: No one can take that.

Jasmine: No.

Melina: Nobody can take that.

Jeff: I’m here from the zoomers and the boomers. You remember World War II.”

Melina: All right, well, then we are the co-zoomers, or something like that. See, this wasn’t that bad, right? Pretty easy. You do it again. So, all we got to do is come up with that, what we want to present to others that will give them value. That needs to be our next goal, right? Love it. Okay guys. All right, well, we’re flippin’ out.
