Speaker 1 (00:12):
Okay, I've been crashing out and I never heard that
term until maybe the last year. People will be making
fun of other people or making fun of me, be like, wow,
is she okay?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
The crash out is real?
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Like people like to troll each other and make fun
of when someone is crashing out, And first of all,
that's just me, and it's usually not when they're crashing out.
It's usually when they're just doing something a little hectic
or chaotic and people have to assign that to someone
like people always do it like, oh, it's giving Brittany
because Brittany. People are often wondering if it's Ai, if
(00:47):
it's a hologram like what she's doing dancing. But like
that in and of itself is mean, just to be
like making fun of Brittany or whoever for what they're
going through, and then someone else for seeming like they're
hitting a lot, Like if someone's hitting a low, that's
the last time you want to say this person's crashing out.
It's almost like when someone's having a nervous breakdown and
(01:07):
you're like kild you relax, like it'll make them crazy,
or a husband to a wife saying like, wow, you're crazy,
like that's triggering. So anyway, I have been crashing out,
like not in some situation where I need to be
medicated or put in like an institution, but in a
way where I can relate to and frighteningly understand how
(01:33):
people that go on tour or that have crazy big careers,
how they like emotionally and physically break down, like they
get exhausted, emotionally exhausted, bandwidth exhausted. And then in the
way where if you get sick, you get the cold
or the flu or something, you could barely walk up
a stair like something that's normal for you, you can't
(01:55):
even breathe, you can't get up the stairs. Well, for me,
I'm a self regular, and so I can usually feel
when like it's not going that great. I do have
checks and balances. I won't just like beat myself into
the ground and then I'm physically exhausted and keep going
and drink coffee and push it.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I don't do that.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
But sometimes I hit a wall so badly and it's
like almost a little too late, Like it's almost like
you're trying to lock the door after you got robbed.
And that is what has happened this time. The white
knuckling of that move to Florida, like what that was,
which was like unbraiding a massive compound of staff and stuff,
(02:37):
but like I'm not a hoarder, but this stuff of
it all was a lot because there was such a
massive property that just each space had so much in it.
So that was like a very big thing. And then
moving into here into where I live now in Florida,
and months before moving into a different condo in Florida,
and even like during the pandemic, I bought and sold
(02:57):
houses and moved a lot, and each time it beat
me down, like it was like not great. And then
I said my life would be different in Florida because
I never wanted to go back there with all the
stuff coming in, and I just wanted to have like
a quieter life, which I do and I'm happier, which
I am, and I walk on the beach and I'm thrilled.
(03:18):
But I think I underestimated this career that I accidentally
embarked on and it took on a life of itself.
And it's like anything else that you guys are doing.
It could be parenting, and it seems like it's going great.
And then one day it just crashes down, or your
workload or planning for a wedding or a sick family member,
(03:40):
or doing everything for your husband and nothing for yourself,
whatever your version of it is. My version became like
thinking that this was still like some cute small business
when it started to absolutely explode, like explode beyond, like
Forbes writers calling to discuss its explosion, and other business
(04:00):
publications tracking the growth of it, and it became really big.
And what I mean it is like I was going
to leave the Housewives and I was going to just
do my podcast and do some relief work, and then
I was just playing around and the makeup stuff started exploding.
And my partner at the time, life partner, was like
laughing at me when I said I was an influencer,
(04:21):
which I was saying it as a joke, but he
like kind of more made it a joke. And then
every week more stuff would come, and more deals would come,
and then more influence would happen, more product would be moved,
more appearances started happening, more press loreal Fashion Week, a
couple of times walking in the runway Sports illustrated walking
on the runway like I am not a Kardashian. I
(04:42):
am not j Loo.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I don't run like that.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I run hot inside like I'm always thinking, analyzing, obsessing,
So I can't run hot outside. I can't be like
activated with a bunch of people and constantly putting makeup
on and like forming and doing in the way that
other forward facing people can. I am shockingly insure. I
(05:23):
don't like to say introvert because I think that means
like you just can't work well with others and talk
to people. And I can, but there are ways that
I'm like an introvert because I get activated and overwhelmed
if I go do something I think I've told you
many times, I have to come back to the nest.
It's not a line, it's not a bit. I have
to balance and regulate. So with all of this stuff
that started happening, I started saying no more and more
(05:46):
because I wanted to be tighter and not just like
be shocked by the money people are throwing at me
and then take it instead. I was like, let me
say no to a lot of things, most things, and
only do really meaningful things. And I do that, and
I've done that, and my team has done that. But
the meaningful things are still pretty gigantic. And the reason
(06:07):
I don't just jump off the ride entirely and stop
is because I'm on the precipice and at the peak.
It's the biggest it's ever been in many ways. And
yet I still get to be home and be in
my pajamas, and I never miss time with my daughter.
I mean, like, very rarely do I miss time with
my daughter, and never like important time, and we have
a great life together and I make dinner for her
(06:29):
and I get to be in sweatpants and like, it's
pretty good. I just didn't realize how big this business got,
so I have staffed it as if it's like a
cute small thing, and it's been like putting a band
aid on a broken leg. It's kind of become a massive,
real business now, and I'm have to treat it as such,
(06:52):
staff wise and putting money behind it wise and to
see how far it goes wise. And I don't get
off the ride because I think it's the best thing
ever done, and it's so fun and alive, and I
have the greatest career you can ever imagine, and it's
a dream and I love connecting and I love helping
people and I love helping them find the things they need,
and I love helping brands, and I love being in
(07:12):
the middle of it. And I love showing women at
a certain age that there's nothing they can't do and
that it's not just that age is a number, age
is actually a fact, but that at whatever age you are,
you can have tremendous impact and influence not only on others,
but on yourself, on your self worth, on your purpose,
on what are you doing, like don't count us out.
(07:35):
So it's been amazing. I just recently have taken on water.
I've taken on too much. And this is the thing
about any of you who have a business or are
a parent or are going through it, Like sometimes it
just seems overwhelming, but the idea and the solution is
right there. You just have to breathe and like allow
(07:55):
it to come. And it's easy to say stop. You
have to take care of yourself, Like everyone says blanket
statements like that, when you have so many obligations and
people that lean on you or rely on you, they
don't really pay attention to when you say that. They
might say, oh, yeah, are you okay, And then the
next day they come in and like jump on you
for something.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
You're like no, no, no.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
When I said that, like I needed a break yesterday,
it wasn't like an hour. It was like I'm breaking down.
And I told my team and I told people around
me who have pretty much ignored it in ways I'm
not doing well, like I'm not okay. And then the
beginning of the week, I was like listen, Brenda and
I are taking a personal day and like I need
(08:34):
a break like this week, like I'm kind of not
doing well. And then look at my calendar and two
days later, seven things are scheduled and I'm like no,
like I don't think you guys get it, Like I'm
like gonna die, like I'm gonna check in somewhere, like
I'm not. I need you to fucking lay off. So
you kind of have to say it's your family and
to like whoever the head of your family besides you is,
if there isn't, you have to like sit down your
(08:56):
head kid or call your sister or your aunt or
someone else. So they're gonna be like no, no, this
stops now. We need this person needs a break and
everyone has to chip in and help. And if it's
a mom it's like, no, we have to do dishes,
we have to write a schedule out, we have to
help with the laundry. Like the mom of the house
is cracking and if she falls, the whole house is
gonna fall. I am not complaining. I'm just explaining that
(09:33):
sometimes you need to take a fucking break, and not
an hour, not a massage, like a big break. That's
just like, no, there are some things that I have
to do. There are some obligations I have to do,
and they're reasonable, but otherwise you can't let the other
little stuff creep in, and your sleep has to be important.
You have to find out how to get it. For me,
(09:54):
there have been edibles that I've taken because I don't medicate.
I don't take pills, and then like they're not working sometimes,
so you have to find and what works Sometimes for me,
even though I know it's not good to help you sleep,
I'll take two SIPs of like saki or something just
to like calm my fucking self down, or watch whatever
show or make sure the morning's clear so you could
sleep late. It's not like an emergency. It's not the
biggest deal. It's just that I have been in a state,
(10:17):
and I'm not ignoring it. I my daughter needs me,
everyone needs me, and I'm going to continue and be successful.
And I know what I want. I don't want to
have nothing going on and nothing to do. But like
there's a balance and you have to self regulate. You
have to find out what that balance is, and you
have to give yourself the gift of honesty and transparency
(10:37):
about where you are this morning. I did have one
of these training sessions on the books because it was
booked and I didn't want to leave the guy hanging,
and I don't want to waste the money, even though
I could have. I could have given it to someone else,
but then that would have been a project finding them.
And the guys really nice. So I walked and I said, listen,
I'm not doing well today. So I'm here and I
want to do the bare minimum and we can just stretch,
(10:58):
but like let everything meet you. You're actually at whatever
that is, because everybody needs a break, and everybody feels
like the waves are crashing and there's a foot on
your chest and you can't breathe and like you're taking
on water and all these things. Everybody gets that, and
there are different degrees of it, but like it's serious,
and our health is the most important thing, and our
(11:19):
mental health is our health, and being there for our
kids is important. And nest and nurture yourself and just
say no and try not to let it get back
there again. Try, you know, train everyone around you. So
that's what I'm doing right now, and I'm really sticking
to it.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I hope that helps, and I hope you get it.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
And the reason I stay in is because I think
I'm taking this business of mind into the end zone.
And I've never been so close. And what is the
end zone? You ask, I'm not even sure, but I
know it's big. It's got impact because this business, which
was just a fun, honest project from my soul and body,
is much bigger than my biggest skinny girl day.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
And that's a big statement. So I always say I'll
walk out when.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
The tables go cold, but I have to let this
horse run. I want to see what this is going
to be. I really really do. Sometimes we either push ourselves,
surprise ourselves and think of something or invent something, or
idate or create and you want to see how far
you could take it. Like anybody's like that, they're athletes,
that retire, but they like, you know what, I think
(12:23):
I got one more in me. And maybe they're right,
maybe they're wrong, but they want to see. And this
is the age where people start to lose purpose and
wish they had something going on and wish they were
more relevant. And I've been meeting people that are my
age in the entertainment industry, the traditional entertainment industry, and
they are all dinosaur dinosaurs. Okay, the entertainment industry has
(12:47):
changed forever as we know it. That is a new topic,
but the entertainment industry is bedrock now that I've been
hiring for this new iteration of my business, which I
posted on social media. I have spoken to people that
have run major, major productions for Bravo, for every major network,
(13:08):
for every major talk show host. I'm talking the View,
I'm talking Allen, I'm talking Oprah, I'm talking Kimmel, I'm
talking Kelly Clarkson, Drew Barrymore, Ricky.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Lake, all of it. Right, they all.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Don't speak the twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six language
of media and entertainment. And it's shocking, Like I thought
I needed one thing, because these people are fucking juggernauts,
and they can run a major operation, So I thought
because of that, they can sort of pivot and adjust
and understand what goes on now in twenty twenty five,
twenty twenty six. The good news for all of you
(13:41):
is if you jump into something now, you could be
at the front of the pack. Because the entire entertainment
industry as it was is bedrock Dinosaur, nearly defunct, scrambling
freaking out. It's why the real estate's fucked there. It's
why there's an exodus there, It's why people are flipping out.
I now get it because I've spoken to people at
(14:03):
every level of running that industry. I mean people that
are managers of a list talent okay, that make tens
of millions of dollars. People that are managers running management
companies asking me, like how we're doing certain things, to
sit down to give them some of what I'm doing,
which I won't. People who own big production companies that
have bought other production companies and like you know, have
(14:26):
made hundreds of millions of dollars, asking me how we're
doing what we're doing. People that are in media right
now that think they're right at the front because they
think that if they say AI every three words, that
they're totally understanding exactly the pulse of where everything is,
and they are too far in one direction because research
is saying that everybody doesn't want every single aspect of
(14:48):
their media to be AI and like not real human connection.
And it's happening in business too. I know people that
are my age, and I'm like, what are you talking about?
Like how do you not know this? Like a do
you not speak language of?
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Like now?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
I used to always be behind in everything, Like I
was always behind in everything. I had Twitter first, but
didn't really know how to be grat at it like
an Ashton Kutcher. I had Instagram in the beginning, but
didn't really understand how to shift over to it and
post authentically. I wanted to do TikTok early, and I
was told that it was for people too young, and
this would have put me in there before Charlie Demilio
(15:23):
and those people, but they said it was too young
for me, and then I finally jumped in. But now
in twenty twenty five, going into twenty twenty six, I
understand a lot about social media, all the channels from
Pinterest to YouTube to snapchat to LinkedIn to all the shit,
like I understand how the game is going on in
philanthropy and business and entertainment.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
So this is a massive, massive.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Technological and entertainment and industry shift. Massive geographically too. There's
just so much change. But that's like the pandemic. When
there's so much change, there's so much much opportunity, you
just have to not be a fucking dinosaur and figure
out where it is. Because I'm telling you it's very serious.
And I talk to people at every level of every industry.
(16:09):
I happen to know so many people that are so
successful and powerful running different industries like tech industry, AI industry,
real estate industry, sports teams industry, the agencies, the highest
paid actors in the world and they're representatives the biggest
comedians in the world and their representatives like podcasters. I
(16:31):
happen to be connected in so many different areas from
close personal friends that I just absorb some of the
things that they're saying. Not the smartest, don't read the
most by any means, don't know what's going on every
day in the world. But I know that there is
a massive shift and that there's a massive opportunity most
(17:02):
person to the answers to the conser
Okay, I've been crashing out and I never heard that
term until maybe the last year. People will be making
fun of other people or making fun of me, be like, wow,
is she okay?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
The crash out is real?
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Like people like to troll each other and make fun
of when someone is crashing out, And first of all,
that's just me, and it's usually not when they're crashing out.
It's usually when they're just doing something a little hectic
or chaotic and people have to assign that to someone
like people always do it like, oh, it's giving Brittany
because Brittany. People are often wondering if it's Ai, if
(00:47):
it's a hologram like what she's doing dancing. But like
that in and of itself is mean, just to be
like making fun of Brittany or whoever for what they're
going through, and then someone else for seeming like they're
hitting a lot, Like if someone's hitting a low, that's
the last time you want to say this person's crashing out.
It's almost like when someone's having a nervous breakdown and
(01:07):
you're like kild you relax, like it'll make them crazy,
or a husband to a wife saying like, wow, you're crazy,
like that's triggering. So anyway, I have been crashing out,
like not in some situation where I need to be
medicated or put in like an institution, but in a
way where I can relate to and frighteningly understand how
(01:33):
people that go on tour or that have crazy big careers,
how they like emotionally and physically break down, like they
get exhausted, emotionally exhausted, bandwidth exhausted. And then in the
way where if you get sick, you get the cold
or the flu or something, you could barely walk up
a stair like something that's normal for you, you can't
(01:55):
even breathe, you can't get up the stairs. Well, for me,
I'm a self regular, and so I can usually feel
when like it's not going that great. I do have
checks and balances. I won't just like beat myself into
the ground and then I'm physically exhausted and keep going
and drink coffee and push it.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I don't do that.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
But sometimes I hit a wall so badly and it's
like almost a little too late, Like it's almost like
you're trying to lock the door after you got robbed.
And that is what has happened this time. The white
knuckling of that move to Florida, like what that was,

me down, like it was like not great. And then
I said my life would be different in Florida because
I never wanted to go back there with all the
stuff coming in, and I just wanted to have like
a quieter life, which I do and I'm happier, which
I am, and I walk on the beach and I'm thrilled.
(03:18):
But I think I underestimated this career that I accidentally

sleep late. It's not like an emergency. It's not the
biggest deal. It's just that I have been in a state,
(10:17):
and I'm not ignoring it. I my daughter needs me,
everyone needs me, and I'm going to continue and be successful.
And I know what I want. I don't want to
have nothing going on and nothing to do. But like
there's a balance and you have to self regulate. You
have to find out what that balance is, and you
have to give yourself the gift of honesty and transparency
(10:37):
about where you are this morning. I did have one
of these training sessions on the books because it was
booked and I didn't want to leave the guy hanging,
and I don't want to waste the money, even though
I could have. I could have given it to someone else,
but then that would have been a project finding them.
And the guys really nice. So I walked and I said, listen,
I'm not doing well today. So I'm here and I
want to do the bare minimum and we can just stretch,
(10:58):
but like let everything meet you. You're actually at whatever
that is, because everybody needs a break, and everybody feels
like the waves are crashing and there's a foot on
your chest and you can't breathe and like you're taking
on water and all these things. Everybody gets that, and
there are different degrees of it, but like it's serious,
and our health is the most important thing, and our
(11:19):
mental health is our health, and being there for our
kids is important. And nest and nurture yourself and just
say no and try not to let it get back
there again. Try, you know, train everyone around you. So
that's what I'm doing right now, and I'm really sticking
to it.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
I hope that helps, and I hope you get it.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
And the reason I stay in is because I think
I'm taking this business of mind into the end zone.
And I've never been so close. And what is the
end zone? You ask, I'm not even sure, but I
know it's big. It's got impact because this business, which
was just a fun, honest project from my soul and body,
is much bigger than my biggest skinny girl day.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
And that's a big statement. So I always say I'll
walk out when.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
The tables go cold, but I have to let this
horse run. I want to see what this is going
to be. I really really do. Sometimes we either push ourselves,
surprise ourselves and think of something or invent something, or
idate or create and you want to see how far
you could take it. Like anybody's like that, they're athletes,
that retire, but they like, you know what, I think
(12:23):
I got one more in me. And maybe they're right,
maybe they're wrong, but they want to see. And this
is the age where people start to lose purpose and
wish they had something going on and wish they were
more relevant. And I've been meeting people that are my
age in the entertainment industry, the traditional entertainment industry, and
they are all dinosaur dinosaurs. Okay, the entertainment industry has
(12:47):
changed forever as we know it. That is a new topic,
but the entertainment industry is bedrock now that I've been
hiring for this new iteration of my business, which I
posted on social media. I have spoken to people that
have run major, major productions for Bravo, for every major network,
(13:08):
for every major talk show host. I'm talking the View,
I'm talking Allen, I'm talking Oprah, I'm talking Kimmel, I'm
talking Kelly Clarkson, Drew Barrymore, Ricky.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Lake, all of it. Right, they all.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Don't speak the twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six language
of media and entertainment. And it's shocking, Like I thought
I needed one thing, because these people are fucking juggernauts,
and they can run a major operation, So I thought
because of that, they can sort of pivot and adjust
and understand what goes on now in twenty twenty five,
twenty twenty six. The good news for all of you
(13:41):
is if you jump into something now, you could be
at the front of the pack. Because the entire entertainment
industry as it was is bedrock Dinosaur, nearly defunct, scrambling
freaking out. It's why the real estate's fucked there. It's
why there's an exodus there, It's why people are flipping out.
I now get it because I've spoken to people at
(14:03):
every level of running that industry. I mean people that
are managers of a list talent okay, that make tens
of millions of dollars. People that are managers running management
companies asking me, like how we're doing certain things, to
sit down to give them some of what I'm doing,
which I won't. People who own big production companies that
have bought other production companies and like you know, have
(14:26):
made hundreds of millions of dollars, asking me how we're
doing what we're doing. People that are in media right
now that think they're right at the front because they
think that if they say AI every three words, that
they're totally understanding exactly the pulse of where everything is,
and they are too far in one direction because research
is saying that everybody doesn't want every single aspect of
(14:48):
their media to be AI and like not real human connection.
And it's happening in business too. I know people that
are my age, and I'm like, what are you talking about?
Like how do you not know this? Like a do
you not speak language of?
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Like now?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
I used to always be behind in everything, Like I
was always behind in everything. I had Twitter first, but
didn't really know how to be grat at it like
an Ashton Kutcher. I had Instagram in the beginning, but
didn't really understand how to shift over to it and
post authentically. I wanted to do TikTok early, and I
was told that it was for people too young, and
this would have put me in there before Charlie Demilio
(15:23):
and those people, but they said it was too young
for me, and then I finally jumped in. But now
in twenty twenty five, going into twenty twenty six, I
understand a lot about social media, all the channels from
Pinterest to YouTube to snapchat to LinkedIn to all the shit,
like I understand how the game is going on in
philanthropy and business and entertainment.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
So this is a massive, massive.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Technological and entertainment and industry shift. Massive geographically too. There's
just so much change. But that's like the pandemic. When
there's so much change, there's so much much opportunity, you
just have to not be a fucking dinosaur and figure
out where it is. Because I'm telling you it's very serious.
And I talk to people at every level of every industry.
(16:09):
I happen to know so many people that are so
successful and powerful running different industries like tech industry, AI industry,
real estate industry, sports teams industry, the agencies, the highest
paid actors in the world and they're representatives the biggest
comedians in the world and their representatives like podcasters. I
(16:31):
happen to be connected in so many different areas from
close personal friends that I just absorb some of the
things that they're saying. Not the smartest, don't read the
most by any means, don't know what's going on every
day in the world. But I know that there is
a massive shift and that there's a massive opportunity most
