Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Do it for you. Do it afraid, do it unprepared,
do it because you're not ready, Do it even though
you don't know how. Just do it. I can't implore
how many times people, even myself, maybe someone you've known

(00:21):
or no have made excuses why they aren't living life
at their best potential, their true potential, they're optimum potential,
simply because they feel they're not ready, simply because they
feel like they have more they need to acquire, simply
because it's not the right timing, or can we just
be honest, simply because you're afraid. And I can't tell

(00:46):
you how many times I have to remind people you're
going to die one day. And I know it sounds
more a bit, but that is a fact and my
thing for myself and others. You better live while you're
still alive. And that means taking a chance on yourself.

(01:11):
That means figuring the steps out as you go. That
means realizing that the best time of your life to
do whatever it is that you want to do is

it for you. Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. You

Speaker 2 (02:10):
Your viting Mandy right with me and get excited about

Speaker 1 (02:18):
All right, It's that damn Dawn, like the break of day?
How you doing? Who I got up in here? Up
in here, I see some folks in the house. I
see a couple who is in the house. Let me
give a shout out to you. This is doing like
the break of day, and we are tuned into Vitamin
D Live. Yes, Mama has been all for a week
but I was doing some super prepared If you go

(02:39):
ahead and check on my Facebook page, I want to
hit it and posted up a picture where you'll see
Miss Felicia. You'll see Miss Wanda, my friend Tiffany, and
Cordney that came out to my Groundings, the performance that
happened last night. Yeah, you've probably heard me talking about
the Groundings. I've mentioned it to you before, about my
aspirations of improv and sketch and all that jazz. Well,

(03:02):
that happened last week. So I had or not last week.
That happened last night, and I have been preparing for
it all week, and so I want to give a
special thank you to all of them, and just to
remind you to go after your dreams, just to remind
us to you to go ahead and take a chance.
Am I exhausted? Yes, yes, yes, but I said I
got to show up. I gotta pull up. MS Maya

(03:24):
was in my messages and said, well, are you going
live today? I said, yeah, I'm going live today. So
who I got live watching me right now? And I
guess it just reminds me. It's like it's a beautiful
thing to build up with something to go after, something
I talked about how important it is to just do it,

(03:46):
regardless if you think you're prepared, regardless if you feel
like you're afraid, regardless if you feel like you got tomorrow,
because all you got is right now today. And that
has really been my journey as to going after the growlings.
I come across so many people that feelings tho they're
lost and they don't know what the passion is, And
I'm like, well, what do you love to do? A

(04:08):
lot of people always talking about how they want to
be comfortable. Well, what is your comfort look like?

Speaker 3 (04:13):
Now?

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Are we just talking about money? Are we talking about time?
Are we talking about doing our true passion? Pursuing our purpose,
making sure we tap into our truest potential. I think
sometimes we get caught up and feeling like it's supposed
to look a certain way, how it's supposed to happen
at a certain time, how it's supposed to propel us

(04:34):
to move forward up per house is not looking like
the person to the left and the right. Wait a minute,
hold up, what are you doing? I say this to
you as I say that to myself. Sometimes you got
to ask yourself, well, what am I doing looking at
somebody else's journey. What am I doing having my eyes
on somebody else's lane? What am I doing that I'm
looking behind when I'm going forward? We are here for

(04:57):
a limit of time. What did I you used to say?
I say, we are special offers here for a limit
of time. Okay, So that is my word for you
as I am on this journey at the groundings, but
doing the dreams and taking a chance on myself. M
it's scary. It's all about figuring out. Go on, honey,

(05:24):
take a chance, That's what I say. So I hope
you out there doing something for yourself, doing something that's
requiring you to get outside of your comfort zone, because
that's when the magic happens. And if you ain't doing nothing,
what are you doing? And if you're not sure what

(05:45):
you're doing, how about you ask yourself why you're doing it?
Is it because you're bored? Is it because you need
some money? Is it because you want a promotions, because
you want the big house? Or are you doing it
because you want a peace of mind? Those are the
things that we are talking about. Just find something to do,
explore opportunities of drying something new. That's what we got

(06:09):
right Now I wanted to pop in because I promised
I was gonna be here, and I want to jump
into a Vitamin D advice letter. Now I'm just my
first time laying eyes on it. So you and I
are going to read this together, and I want to
welcome you to call me in the studio eight one
eight four six one fifty four thirty two with your

(06:30):
comments on this letter. And once I finished with the letter,
perhaps you want to talk to me about some stuff.
Come me. Look, I've been off for a week. Y'all said,
y'all need some Vitamin D. So here is me. Okay,
all right, so here we go. Subject my husband doesn't
love to cuddle. Let me give a clearance. Y'all know,

(06:51):
I say, Vitamin D is all about shedding the light
right on the good and the bad. Because if you
want to be better and you want to do better,
you guys to be able to see better. And with
that being said, that means eight to me to spit
out the bones. These are my thoughts, views and opinions
you wrote into me. And if you're wondering, you said,
you know what doing? I need some of your advice.
Go ahead and email me Vitamin D at Dawn daispeaks

(07:12):
dot com. That's vitamin D at Dawn daispeaks dot com.
All right, all right, here we go subjects. My husband
doesn't love to cuddle, Dear Dawn. I have a really
great guy. He cooks, he cleans, he works, and he
really loves me. We tear off each other's clothes like
we're still teenagers and we can't keep our hands off

(07:34):
of each other. He calls me constantly, flowers and balloons
sent to me at work at least twice a week
at work in breakfast in bed, simple and expensive but romantic,
weekend vacations and trips, candle like dinners and slow dancing
in the kitchen or wherever we are. We have been
together for five years. It feels so good to me

(07:54):
in a fantastic relationship with him, except for one thing.
It's kind of small to him, but so huge to me, Dawn.
He doesn't like cuddling after sex, usually about six minutes
or so, he just wants to get up and go
do something else or go shower me. Though, Dawn, I
want to be held in his big arms and hear

(08:15):
his breathing, Dawn, I want to hear his heart beat
as I lay my head on his chest and just
close my eyes. I want to lay there knowing and
feeling the warmth of our love and enjoy the togetherness
of us, if that makes sense. If we can talk
or not, just hold me, keep holding me. I've talked

(08:38):
to him about this before, and he gets really quiet.
It took some doing, but I asked him to be
brutally honest with me about why he doesn't want to
cuddle with me. He says that he loves me, that
he wants me, that he needs me, and that he
go crazy without me. But after about a few minutes
of cuddling, he just wants to get up and do

(08:58):
something else. But he also said that he wants to
be a better partner and that he try harder well.
After sex last night, he lasted a good twenty two
minutes into Cuttland. But you know what was really cool.
As he held me, he cried softly into my hair
and told me that I was his world and that

(09:19):
he didn't want to ever lose me. He said this
over and over again. Then he swooped me up into
his big arms and we bathed together for like twenty minutes.
Soapy strawberry shampoo, kisses and all and gentle laughter somewhere
in the middle, Dawn, I heard on one of your
past shows about cuddling and telling, asking your partner for
what you want and what you need and intimacy. Wise,

(09:42):
thought i'd share this with you. Love you and thanks.
Frankie Lee Buddington, aged forty one, from Dallas, Texas. Well,
here's the thing, you know. I read this book entitled
Unlimited Power. Was it by James Baldwin, James Weldon, James
Weldon Johnson? Oh lord, I hope I'm not repeating the

(10:05):
name of the guy that wrote the song anyway, even
it was also co authored or in partnership somehow with
Tony Robinson, you know, the inspirational, motivational speaker, you know,
Tony Robbins AnyWho. One of the things that really stood
out to me in that book, Frankie Lee, was he
talked about relationships and how oftentimes when dealing with relationships

(10:28):
and how some relationships you know, go estranged or depart
or fall apart, is not because couples don't love each other.
It's because couples aren't speaking the same love language. Wait
a minute, catch what I'm picking down. It's not that
couples do not love each other. It's the fact that
these couples aren't speaking or these two individuals aren't speaking
the same love language. When do we get the point

(10:51):
of making room for somebody else's love language? What I
mean by that? They put this example in the book
about a couple, a husband and wife. The wife is
in the kitchen things ready. Her husband comes in. The
first thing he does is grabs her and gives her
a kiss. Immediately, she is annoyed, like, oh my god,
you are all up on me. You can't even say hi, baby,

(11:12):
how you doing, how's your day? You just all up
on me? And she was completely offended. He's looking at
her like, well, what's going on? I came in, baby,
I'm giving you some loving. But she's annoyed and he's confused.
Now here's what we gotta look at. It's not about
this couple. It's not loving on each other. It's just
that they're not speaking the same language or language in
which the other person is able to receive. Now, what

(11:35):
we can identify we know about the love languages are
right now in case I miss anything, hey, miss Maya
tuning in, we talk about words about affirmation, quality, time, gifts,
acts of service, and I'm missing another one. But for
the sake of the time, in this conversation right here,
we are looking at the wife, and what does it

(11:56):
sound like her love language is words of affirmation? What
does this a love language? Sound like? A touch? Physical touch? So,
while both of these couples are individuals are expressing love
to each other that can't be received because she's saying, well,
why you ain't saying nothing to me? And he like, well,
I'm trying to love on you, but you're pushing me

(12:17):
away now in your situation right here, I don't see
a situation where your husband isn't loving you all the
things that you see in somebody being present. He's a
great guy. He cooks, he cleans, he works. You even said,
he really loves me. You even said, after being together
for five years, it feels good to be in a

(12:37):
fantastic relationship. Except he doesn't like coddling. You even said,
after most recently y'all became intimate, he hugged on you
and cried in your hair, professed about the fact of
how much he loved you. And then y'all got in
a shower for another twenty minutes, but yet it's still
not speaking to you as enough. Now you said that

(13:01):
you have communicated with him.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
What you know?

Speaker 1 (13:03):
I'm all about communication Cmune and communication is not always
being said, but also how the person is receiving it. Now,
how long you want this cut in the last boom?
Is this like an all day thing? Do you have
a time living among hours? Because it's not that he's
not cuddling with you. You just said the other day y'all

(13:23):
was intimate and y'all were cuddling away, And I almost
chuckled a little bit because you said he lasted a
good twenty two minutes. I meant, what is your point
of where you want to say that's enough cuddling? Is it?
Thirty minutes? Is an hours? And a couple hours? Then
y'all want into the shower. So I got to ask
you what is it that you want? And how are

(13:44):
you communicating get with one another? So are you at
the brink where you're about to break up with this
man because he's not cutting liing on you enough. He
shows up, he cooks, he cleans, he takes care of
the bills, He lets you know that you he loves you,
what does this mean for you and what does it
look like for enough to be enough? Have you communicated
even the times and when he's ready to stop, is

(14:05):
he open to try doing again? I don't think this
is grounds of breaking a relationship. I think this is
more and so getting to know your partner. But at
the same token, at the same time, it's not a
moment of where you're not feel in love. It's just
that maybe it's not enough or it has to come
on harder because it's not like he's not paying you attention.

(14:27):
And I guess I'm just even reflecting on your letter.
Are you asking a question? Are you asking a question
on what you should do? It sounds like you have
communicated it with him. Is it enough where you feel
like this cuddling is not enough for you, but enough
for you to have to walk away to find somebody
else again? You got five years in a game with him.
You definitely said you feel loved. You definitely said he

(14:47):
feels like I mean, he is a great guy. You
definitely said he cuddles with you in a bed, but
it's just not long enough. Okay, are you majoring in
the minor? I mean, these are all simple questions. I
think that before you decide to make it any major moves,
make wrong for your husband. And see how he's trying
to show up, Cause again it's not like y'all getting
it in and he's just getting up walking away. He's

(15:09):
giving you a moment, But how much of a moment
do you need? And I'm not trying to say nothing
smart way, I'm just saying, reflect on yourself of whether
or not you are feeling loved, you are feeling wanted,
but clearly his actions are saying that way. But then
there's a thing where you're not receiving it. And I
want you to be mindfuls because what I don't want

(15:30):
to happen is that you develop a sense of resentment.
What I don't want to happen is that you end
up stepping out because you feel as though you aren't
being loved of how you want to be loved. And
who am I to tell you that you need to
relax and chill, Okay, I'm just here to point it
out to know what you are standing up against. Because
if you decide to walk away from this man because
you feel as though he is not cuddling with you

(15:51):
for thirty minutes instead of twenty two or now we're
are several hours after that. Look at all what you're
giving up as well, because he's a great guy. He cooks,
he cleans, and what I really appreciate is that you communicate.
So maybe it's probably something that you guys need to
do activities and figure out how it went. More ways
and field where you can have his attention and perhaps
have some more cuddling, or maybe you just need to

(16:12):
have some more sacks. I'm just saying, if you know
what's gonna be a bit of a cuddling, put yourselves
in moments when you got a cut, Let's watch a movie, baby. Okay,
that's the best advice I want to give to you. Okay,
he's giving you the kiss. It says he's crying in
your hair. It's not like he's coming home and acting

(16:32):
like you're not there. Hey, all right, Frankie Lee. I
hope that was able to give you some insight. Don't
give up on this marriage just yet. Do not give
on this relationship. It's just say this man loves you,
he appreciates you, and he honors and he values you.
Do not lose on a relationship where somebody is loving
on you. Okay, that's what I got to say, Dawn,
like the break of day. Hey, all right, okay, I'm

(16:57):
living a studio. Thank you so much for joined me.
Let me see who I got. Miss Mayan. She just
listened there. She said, you are high mess. Just keeping
it real. So you know the dam coming in coming,
in coming in oh man. So I'm glad to be
back in the studio. I could have probad some more stories,

(17:18):
but baby, I'm just glad that I pulled up today.
And like I said before, I was all for an
entire week. I was getting everything ready for my performance
at the Groundlings. I put up a picture on Facebook.
Go check it out. And I have another show coming
up January sixth. This is a Monday at eight o'clock.
Would love to see you there. Also, I didn't even

(17:38):
tell you call me, let me know what's been going
on with you, was going on in your world around you?
Eight one eight four six one fifty four thirty two.
I about to put in the chat call me because
I did the Vitamin D dervice letter. And now I'm
gonna be honest with you. I didn't prepare for nothing else.
I was just glad I got into the studio, but

(17:58):
I want to hear from you do. We definitely will
be coming in with more content, maybe even a guest,
but for sure, I guess probably next week on the
podcast while we're doing a live Otherwise I could have
recorded this at home my guests. But know it's something
about being in the moment. Being in the moment. Ms
Mian said, that's why I love you. She says, Oh
my gosh, the picket fire. Thank you so much. How

(18:19):
you doing is mine? You want to call on me
and let me know what's been going on in your
world this past week. I'd love to hear from you
or somebody. I got a couple eyeballs on me. I
got a couple eyeballs on me in the studio. I
would love to know what you feel. I know Trump
is making some plans right now, was about to come
into twenty twenty four. I also want to make a
correction since we're on that topic of that someone that

(18:42):
really broke it down talking about the difference between migrants
and people who are illegal here. Hey, mis Mac so
good to be seen and not to be viewed. Well,
thank you so much, thank you. I guess I'm glad
that you know I did. Neither. I want to talk

(19:04):
about something else today because just based off of just
rifting on what we're talking about about staying at home
and and why it's so important to show up because
this is part of the dream, right And I think
oftentimes when we look at the pursuit of the dream
that is supposed to look like a certain way. I
know what I risked, I know what I sacrificed to
be able to come in this studio. And now I'm
in a situation where I have reliable transportation, I have

(19:27):
a studio at my leisure, I have access to a studio.
Why wouldn't you show up? And I'm saying that to you,
why aren't you showing up for your dreams? If there
is anything that you have inspired to do that you
would like to do, I got to ask you why
you aren't showing up? Like I said, I was talking
to a dear friend who is in the entertainment industry
as well. But it's in a mode of feeling like, Okay,

(19:50):
I'm looking at this age and I'm not experiencing the
comfortable life that I want. It's not happening at the
pace that I want. I'm looking at where I am
right now and I'm saying this is not what I want.
But then I have to ask that's them. I said, well,
what is your comfort look like? Is your comfort having
enough money but doing a job that you hate. Is
your comfort going after something that you love and not
having all the money but knowing that when it does hit,

(20:11):
it's gonna hit. What is your level? And that is
something only you can answer. Also, if you are trying
to figure it out what it is that you want,
what is it that you want to do? Have you
truly stepped out and stepped into everything that has made
an interest to you. I can't tell you how many
times I talked to people that said, I don't know

(20:31):
what it is that I want. You know, they say
that the richest place in the world is in the cemetery.
That's how many people have died with their dreams. And
I'm thinking perhaps that a lot of people feel like
it didn't happen at the time, and that they want
it didn't show up, or they didn't feel prepared, or
perhaps they had more regrets, or perhaps they spent so
much time being distracted, wasting it on other people other
things and doing things they ain't had no business doing.

(20:54):
Why is that? And there is no right or wrong answer.
It just all depends on what is in port you
and that is going to require you to take some time.
That is going to require you to take some time
to get to know yourself, to what ignites you, what
gets you excited, what gives you the rush, and realizing
that the journey is the experience, and the experience is

(21:16):
the journey. Get off of the idea whatever this destination
looks like, because guess what, once you get there, you're
still gonna be seeking more. Once you get there, you'll
realize the top of this mountain is the bottom of
an next. Once you on your pursuit there, you're going
to realize that you're gonna fall. You're gonna bump your head,
you're gonna hit yourself. But what do I say? If

(21:38):
you can look up, you can get up. Your location
is not your destination. If you fall down seven times,
get up eight period. All I'm saying is this time
that we got here right now is limited. Okay, there's
no reason why you should be in a space of
being lost for too long. Not saying there's a time limit,

(22:00):
but feeling lost because if there is anything that has
ever intrigued you, anything that has ever sparked your interest,
anything that has gotten you excited, go after it and
get it. Have I made all the money that I
want to make and that I'm going to make? No,
But I've had a cushy jobs with notable individuals and

(22:24):
sat there thinking like, why am I feeling still hurt?
Why does it feel like it's not enough. I'm at
a reputable company, I'm working with a major celebrity. Because
what I realized is I wasn't choosing me, And I
got to ask you, have you decided to choose yourself?

(22:45):
You know what? You're choosing yourself because there's gonna be
a different kind of happiness, a different kind of piece,
and not saying a piece that everything is going all right.
But the times that you're gonna want to give up,
you're gonna find something that's gonna you keep on going.
And that's how you know. When it puts a smile
on your when it gets you excited, when it wakes
you up in the middle of night, wakes you up
earlier than you want to, or perhaps you spend them

(23:05):
more time on it, then what you should be and
I say should be in quotes. Then that is required.
That is how you know what you love. That is
how you live your life on purpose and for a purpose.
Because what do I say? We here for a good time,
not a long time. So make account once this time
is spent, has gone forever. That's why they say time

(23:26):
is your most valuable asset. But I tell you, and
I remind you after each episode, how you are your
greatest asset. If we were to look at it like
I would always say about your life, bank account, and
how you are your greatest asset? What are you depositing
and what are you withdrawing from your account? And depositing

(23:48):
can look like giving your self affirmations, loving on yourself,
taking care of yourself, spending your time with people that
value you. Now, what does a withdrawal look like? Getting
destrys doing something that doesn't serve you? And what do
I say if it doesn't serve you, it doesn't deserve you.
Respecting yourself or not respecting yourself and not taking a

(24:09):
chance on yourself? And what you're gonna have to realize? Actually,
I just posted this up on threads. Can I share
something with you? Let me know how you think about this.
I see you all of them here. Let me know
how you think about this quote that I saw it
and immediately I had to repost it. What you're not changing,

(24:29):
you're choosing. Did you catch it? Let me say this again,
What you're not changing, you are choosing. Now here's the thing.
You're gonna have to be honest about what you want
in life. Can we say something else? Can we truly
say everything that you have truly wanted, you've desired, that

(24:51):
you really put effort in, You've gotten it. That's why
they say gratitude is everything. The more grateful you are,
the more things you you have to be grateful for.
Don't tell me you can't do it, because you have
surprised one hundred percent of the worst days of your life.
So yeah, you can be down and out right now.
But I don't know why you counting yourself out. I
don't know why you're striking yourself out because you felt

(25:13):
like you were in despair before, but you're still here.
I don't know if I got some witness centers of
the house. But if I do, can you come eight
one eight four six, one five four three two eight
one eight four six one five four three two. Take
a chance on yourself because we're here for a good time,
not a long time. Can't nobody tell you what your

(25:35):
joy is supposed to be. Can't nobody else tell you
what it's supposed to look like. You gotta know what
it feels like. If you want to know the truth,
you know the truth by the way that it feels.
How does your life feel for you? And remember, if
you aren't changing it, you're choosing it. I know that's
probably a source spot for a lot of people. You
have the power to change your life. Can I go

(25:56):
into it one more time? In this conversation that I
had to ard a friend last after my show talking
about I said, wow, down, I wanted to support you
because I know that you spend six and a half
years going after this. Huh. I said, well, whatever is
your thing, that's what you do. I said. For me
to be able to sacrifice and risk, I know the

(26:17):
rush and excitement something brings to me, and I know
what my level of comfort looks like, meaning I may
not have all the money to my disposal, but I
got a different level of peace of mind knowing that
I'm going after something that I truly want, not because
it looks good on the outside, not because it gives
so much money. Again, my situation is different because I

(26:38):
don't have little beings that I am depending on or
a whole significant other that is depending on me. I
am dependent on me. I am taking a chance on myself.
So yes, in that aspect, it looks different from my life.
But what does it look like for your life? These

to head out here, when we have a family members
whom we all respected and trusted, has tooken advantage in

(28:58):
stolen everything? Well are you? Are you asking what do
we do? You want to state what you want to say, Albert,
I'm here. I think with any situation, you gotta treat
people as people, and family members are still people, but

(29:23):
you happen to share blood. So what's the sayings, go
fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame
on me. We have a family when we have a
family member who we all respecting and trust that I

(29:44):
took advantage stolen everything and they did it on purpose. Okay,
So now if this family member is taking advantage again
and stealing things from you again, that would have to
be a shame on you.

Speaker 4 (29:55):
Right.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
I'm just saying I think you have to be mine
full of how close you letting your family member in
your life and the things in the time you are
allowing them access to Marcus Savage is in ours. Oh my,
I saw Marcus over at black Man's wellness day. What
this is a couple of weeks ago? Now, this was

(31:02):

I'm good? How you doing?

Speaker 3 (31:36):
What? What is happening is he's one of our he's
older than me, and he's a multi millionaire.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
Okay, everybody, everybody, I presume this is mister Albert Johnson.
Are you here? This is this album.

Speaker 3 (31:52):
Ras black Man to take Madison Avenue on and win,
you know, advertisement and stuff.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
Heck, hello, can you hear me?

Speaker 3 (32:03):
Yeah? I can hear you.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
Okay, we got a We didn't even get an introduction
to say what's going on? You just called in the middle.
So this is Albert.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
Well, I'm okay, you know, in a respectful way. He's
you know, he's a multi millionaire, and we give, not give,
but put in trust of him. Of when you called
out investments and stuff.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Okay, hold on, Albert, let me set up real quick, Albert, Albert, Albert.
We got people watching. They have no idea what you're
talking about. I just left talking about an expungement workshop.
So we got Albert on the line. Albert just called
in to talk about your cousin says, you have a
family members that have stolen and uh, family members who

(32:47):
we all respected and trusted took advantage in stolen everything
and he did it on purpose. Now you just said
this family member is very wealthy.

Speaker 3 (32:55):
Yeah, now I understand how we got as wealth. See,
we have income property and I inherited because I'm the
sole survivor. And one of my cousins he's an attorney,
and he sent me a voicemail last year and told

(33:15):
me what was going on with him, and I really
didn't want to believe it. But why would he do that?
Now he was selling properties and trying to liquidate stuff
to be easier for us. But it was like a scam,
you know. I mean, I'm about to get off the phone.

(33:37):
But he over the years he spent almost two million
dollars of road trust one. Oh my god, not serious money.
And then my other cousin, I hope he really didn't
managing one of the properties. And I did the math
over a little over half a meal, and I'm just.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
I'm crust falling, and the whole family's pissed. Off.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
You know, it's it's bad and I'm just keep in
mind composure, being humble. But they didn't know about my
other account, so it's hard. You know, you got to
follow your gut instinct and just you know, when you

(34:30):
everybody has a first mind that's spiritual. When you're driving
your car or walking, something tells you to go this
way astead of the other way. Everybody knows this. Whatever
that first thought, first mind, follow it because that's spiritual
guidance to keep you abreast and keep you safe. And

(34:53):
that's basically all I have to say everyone.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
And chow by, all right, So maybe that's what this
is right now, everybody you want to call event Uh
that was Albert just calling in to talk about how

(35:18):
a family member took advantage. I was trying to set
up to introduce. So I hope you guys have got
the gest of it. But let this be an open space.
Has anybody that else want to call in to vent,
call in to share some resources, call in with some information.
Now's the time. It's tonton and to hunt and to

(35:45):
hunt h and Tuesday, all right. So, like I said before,
I want to encourage if you want to be a
guest or if you learn to invite write an advice

and I hope to hear from you and we'll get
a topic going, a topic of conversation. But I wanted
to pop in and go boop boop. Make sure you
see my face that I'm here. We're still in the
studio after the dream. We just had a long weekend week.
But it's good. And I hope that y'all stop being

(36:30):
so shy and calling me. Stop being so shy. Oh,
we got another caller talk to me tuesday. Who's this.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
Savage?

Speaker 4 (36:43):
How you doing that?

Speaker 1 (36:44):
Hey there, market Savage, how you doing I'm doing awesome.

Speaker 4 (36:48):
I'm fantastic over here.

Speaker 1 (36:50):
It was so good scene a couple of weeks ago.

Speaker 4 (36:53):
Yeah, it's always good to be out, you know what
I'm saying, and be seen in the in the public space.
You know, I ain't been out a while, so I
had to get out. Let me let me get straight here.
Hold on a second, okay, and and uh, you know,
when you go live, I always try and tune in. Uh,
you know, I'm busy a lot most of the time.
I day on into eight o'clock at night.

Speaker 3 (37:14):
But it is what it is.

Speaker 4 (37:16):
But yeah, we are doing some good stuff over here
at gig and getting the game. We gotta the young
lady he's to the street. I don't want to mess
her name up, but I call her Keyky. Everybody calls
her key Key. She's over here in our plaza and
she does She does fool giveaways every week. She has

(37:39):
a health clinic, come out every other Monday and do things.
So we got it going on on the corner of
Samarron and Manchester over there, we're looking for some people
to sign up for some of these union classes. All
these union positions are out here needing to be filled,
and they just need some people that's willing to to

(37:59):
put to work in. You know, it's not easy, it's
it's a it's a battle, but it's just definitely worth it,
you know.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
So what's the union classes? What's this about? For anybody
that's like, wait, what is Marcus Savage talking about?

Speaker 3 (38:10):
What?

Speaker 4 (38:11):
Yeah, so I'm talking about union union positions in the carpentry,
the field of carpentry, plumbing, electrical electricians, electricians, and the
other a lot of few, a few other trades that
you can get into, you know, entry level positions. And
all these positions again don't require any any type of experience.

(38:35):
They just require a card work and determination to make
it and succeed, you know, And a lot of people
get in and they don't have the guidance and they
don't understand the the rules, you know, any any anytime
you get a job or or whatever we like to
say careers. We don't like to use the J word.

(38:56):
You know, there's rules and you have to follow rules
and you to understand the game. And so that's when
we come in. We help you understand your role as
an employee, as a new person on the job site,
on the breaking into an industry that's filled with a
lot of people that may not look like you, and
different cultures, right that are going to interact with each

(39:18):
other for eight hours or ten hours. You spend more time,
you know, at work than you do with your family.
So if you can get along and understand the culture
and the rules of engagement being you are are more
likely to be successful, and for many.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Of us, we don't have that kind of training ground.
Wh's basically it's almost like I got you. Let me
show you how you walk into an interview, the type
of questions you may have, just to be comfortable of
selling yourself and showing off your skills, and more importantly,
like you said, being in the space that you can
acquire these skills.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
It's like your body language, you know, it says volumes.
You know, how you walk, how you follow instructions. Do
you write the instructions down or do you got to
ask them five times? So these things matter, you know,
especially your first what ninety days thirty days really two weeks,
because you got about a week or two for them
to either like you or not like you. That's anywhere

(40:21):
you go, So you know, the first impression is going
to be the most important one, you know. And if
you understand the rules of a game before you start
playing that game, you know you can you can almost
you know, guarantee you your success.

Speaker 1 (40:39):
Come on, you know. And that's why I just love
the name of the title your organization, the name of
your organization. Get in the game. It's get in the game.
Be a player in this game of life. Unless you
know what I.

Speaker 4 (40:53):
Mean, and to think about it. Go ahead. I always say,
put me in, a coach, Put.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
Put me in, coach, Put me in, because I'm ready
to play. And people got so much to say on
the sidelines. And that's why I'm saying, like, if you
want a sideline right now, because you are concerned whether
or not you got a record, if you on the
sideline right now because you don't feel like though you
got enough experience, If you want a sideline right now
that you don't know where you can go, well, I'm
telling you it's time to get in the game. And

(41:22):
you can do that with market Ravig. Now we're talking
about expungeing records. So individuals who have a record who
are looking to get a high paying job, it's possible.

Speaker 4 (41:33):
Yep, yep.

Speaker 1 (41:35):
Now you said you mentioned go ahead.

Speaker 4 (41:38):
No, I was gonna say, I'm actually getting some stuff
off my record this this December on the fourth when
they come out. I had some stuff that they say
they couldn't expunge when I first get it. And now
the laws changed, and guess what that thing that that's
on there is about to be off. So again, you know,
you never know unless you show. You know, you never know.

Speaker 1 (41:59):
Unless you it's trying to show up. Pull up, walk up,
crawl up to. Now about these union jobs, how much
do they pay?

Speaker 3 (42:07):
Good?

Speaker 1 (42:08):
Like, why would somebody want a union job?

Speaker 4 (42:11):
Well, a union job normally starts off paying about what
any other any other position will pay, you know, seventeen
to twenty dollars an hour.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
But the beautiful thing.

Speaker 4 (42:21):
About a union position is is you start off as
an apprentice, right and everybody knows that a prentchice means
to train, so they're going to be training you. It's
all on the job training. And we we like to
say our model is earn why you learn, and so
you earned what you learn. And at the end of

(42:41):
four years or some unions is different just depending on
the trades you pick. I think the electricians might maybe
five or six right at the end of that, then
you get what you call a journeyman certificate. And so
all throughout your apprenticeship. Every Like I talk about the
carpenters because I'm a carpenter and that's what I know,
and so I share what I know with the Carpenter's Union.

(43:04):
About every six hundred dollars you get a raised oh wow.
And that raise might be two dollars, it might be
three dollars. So you go from say, say, say you
start off at nineteen dollars an hour as a first
period of prentice. By the time you get to your
age stage, which is eight eight stages of apprenticeship, you're
at fifty something dollars an hour, forty something dollars an
hour every hour an hour? Are you and you know, yeah, yeah,

(43:28):
yeah yeah.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
I can't understand why why why? I can't even understand
how you putting a call out there for people to
get trained, to people to get paid?

Speaker 4 (43:38):
Is it?

Speaker 1 (43:38):
Are people not? Are they not showing up? Is how
how they can? Because this is insane to me.

Speaker 4 (43:45):
Well, a lot of people don't know about it, you know,
and a lot of people, you know, I just say,
a lot of people don't know about it, you know.
And it is it is tough to make it, you know,
it's it's it's a it's a it's a tough trade.
All the trades are tough. But you know, anything that's
tough is definitely worth it because the amount of money

(44:05):
that you can make for a lifetime, right, you know,
once you learn a skill, a trade, electrical elect you know, electricians, plumbers, HVAC.
My son's a elevator mechanic, and you know, can you
imagine earning potential for a lifetime of that. You know,
wherever you are, there's gonna be an elevator, there's gonna
be some plumbing. You know, somebody's life's gonna go out.

(44:27):
And so you know, once you get those skills, you know,
under your belt, and on top of all of that,
you get that Journeyman certificate. Now you are certificate eyes right,
that's a new word, certificate Eyes. And you are eligible
for other other areas that require a certificate in construction

(44:48):
like building inspector, you know, like building maintenance persons, like
home inspection, like contractor general contractor. So you have all
these their doors that open up once you receive your
Journeyman certificate. And I always stress people when they get
into the to the union or when they join up

(45:09):
in the union, the journey is just the beginning to
get to that Journeyman certificate. That's what you want, that's
your goal, you know, And a lot of people don't
even get there because again they don't have the game.
Because they get in and they work a job and
you know they maybe they don't show up to a
meet union meeting. Maybe they do, but the union doesn't
explain the benefits of being an apprentice. You know, only

(45:32):
the only the people, the only people that know the
benefits of being the apprentice are the journeymen that have
completed their apprenticeship program. And guess who they shared with.
They share it with the FBI, their friends, brothers and
in law. Right, and so you know that that gives
you a good idea of why you see the makeup

(45:56):
of construction as it is.

Speaker 1 (46:00):
And you know what, the advancement of technology going into
the trades would be super ideal right now, right, yes,
I never thought, you know, I thought about like the uh,
the funeral business. I didn't think about like elevators, plumbing.
I don't know if robots can do that. But you know,

(46:23):
different things change, different things need to be applied. But
these are the jobs that you got to look at.

Speaker 5 (46:29):
And it ain't it doesn't even letter if a robot
can do it, or now somebody has to program the
robot and that's consider a traform for the robots to
do their stuff. Right, you know, our our trade is here,
get in the game. G I t G dot com right, yep, No, we.

Speaker 4 (46:50):
Actually are launching a new website. It's coming out really soon.
We had a dot com and were changing it to
dot org because that's what the uh you know, the
organ is that the training and the educational organizations used.
So we're revamping. Like I said, we've been shopping the
screw in our organization trying to trying to get it
right and get it right on, you know, in line

(47:10):
with everything, and make sure we are you know, ready
for the people. So if you guys come out on
the fourth of December, reach out to us, give us
a call six six one two nine five.

Speaker 1 (47:24):
Six wait six one twit wait six six one.

Speaker 4 (47:29):
Two nine three nine one three five.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
Now you just said you mentioned uh, Key to the Street.
You said you you mentioned her every week. What's that about.

Speaker 4 (47:42):
Well, she is a wonderful lady. That's a wonderful person
that has an organization called Key to the Streets. They're
non profit five oh one C three, just like us,
and they do they do mainly fool giveaways. They do
health clinics every month day at our location on Manchester
Cemarron right in the parking lot. They have to help

(48:03):
clinic band come up. They actually is doing taco Tuesday.
So she sells tacos for like a dollar or two
dollars or something like that on Tuesday, just to joke,
you know, generate money for a nonprofit. She accepts donated clothes.
She has a threat store there where you can come
in if you know you're low on cash. You can
get some nice stuff that's donated. It's all clean and

(48:27):
you know, some nice stuff because I've donated some nice
suits and some nice stuff.

Speaker 6 (48:31):
So if you know, if you need a nice little
outfit or whatever. You know, maybe you know some kids
that already needed something, you know, for school, they mom
or dad can't get them a lot, they can come
by there and she'll give them some stuff, you know.
So it's we're we're just trying to be a community
center over on Manchester and Samarai. So you know, we're

(48:53):
we're just trying to be there for the people. You
need some employment advice, come on down, you know. They
maybe you need a rest excuse me, maybe you need
a resume. Maybe heck, maybe you need a reference. You know,
I'll get to talking to you and if I feel
good about it, I get you a reference you know
people if I can say something nice about you. So again,
we're just here to help the people, and anything we

(49:16):
can do in the community, we are going to do
and be there. Uh So that that's really it for us.

Speaker 1 (49:22):
I really appreciate.

Speaker 3 (49:23):
Now.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
One thing that stood out to me, or standing out
to me right now talking about getting the game, is
that other organizations that I know help people get their
records expunge and training them. I was informed like with
other organizations, unlike yours, it's unpaid training, and that has
kind of deterred people because you're in a situation where
you need the money right now. And another executive director

(49:43):
we're telling me at the organization that it's hard to
get people to keep coming or to come back because
they want to check or the money right then and there.

Speaker 4 (49:50):
But you're saying, hey, well we're not We're not able
to offer the pay any paid training. But what we
do is we can link you up. We can link
you up with some of the organizations that do do
the paid training because a lot of those organizations, I
was an instructor for CI, Brothers, Keepers, PV Jobs. I

(50:12):
was in instructor for all those organizations. And so when
I meet you, I can definitely link you up with
that organization that does that. And that's kind of like
what I kind of like what I like to do,
because I would love for a person to go into
or PV jobs or Brother's Keepers, you know, or CI
with the knowledge of what it takes to be successful

(50:35):
and now they're going to get the training and they
have the knowledge already right right, so it goes hand
in hand, you know. I just want to give them
the knowledge that they need, you know, maybe a little
hands on training. Hey, And believe me, it is definitely
worth the time, you know, because because your time is
I know, valuable. But can you imagine my time as

(50:56):
an instructor, as a business owner that I'm taking out
to share my knowledge and give my game for free
to you? Wow? You know that's what you have to
look at the value that you're receiving. And if you
can't see the value in what I'm giving, then this
program is definitely not for you. But trust me, the
people that that pull up, they see the value. And

(51:21):
that's that's why I do it. I I speak to
these guys and ladies all the time, you know, and
so the value is definitely there.

Speaker 1 (51:33):
You know right, So I hope everybody is listening. Take
advantage of the value. If you are listening right now
and you happen to be in the LA area, check
out Getting the Game, g I t G soon, tobe
dot org, g I TG dot org and link up
with Marcus Savage. Let me give you the number. Everybody
six six one two nine three ninety one thirty five
again sixty six one two nine three ninety one thirty five.

(51:56):
Make market calendars because within less than a month there
is a record expungement workshop happening on the corner of
Manchester and Cimarron from nine am to twelve pm. I'm
talking live music, I'm talking about food, giving away clothes,
and most importantly giving you employment information. How many people
looking for a job, who wants to start a new

(52:16):
gear with a new job, knowing they got a new
skill set and knowing they with somebody that got they back, Well,
that's that day of Marcus.

Speaker 4 (52:23):
Give it up, giving up the game. We're trying to
give up the game. We're trying to let the people know, look,
just how you do it. We're gonna give your instructions
on how to be successful.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
You know, a mentor of mine here at Premier Networks.
He says, you know, one thing you realize when you're
aligning yourself with people and you're trying to move up,
and how you know you're really talking to somebody that
is successful because successful people want to teach other people
how to be successful. And I know you successful because

(52:54):
you're talking about teaching other people and just listening and learning.
How you're you're building and you're growing, like in so
many ways, even down with the location and having different
individuals holding events there in spaces and doing different things.
I love in Marcus. Are you there every week or
only when you're doing your workshops?

Speaker 4 (53:13):
Well, I'm I'm I'm in and out every day. The
office is open, but we're you know, you have to
make an appointment, So if you make an appointment, I'll
be there. I'm a general contractor, so I'm in the
field most of the day. But if someone wants to
come in at two o'clock or or four o'clock and
sit down for one on one or some information, I

(53:33):
can definitely do that. But we are going to be
holding some workshops in twenty twenty five, doing some sign
ups and stuff. But you know, right now, We're just
on a on a case by case basis, but we
do do stuff that we do come to you like
a location. So if you have an organization or you
want us to come and speak to your to your

(53:55):
to your students or your you know, your whoever you you're,
you're pretty much we can definitely come out to your
organization and do a presentation, depending on you know, what
your needs are. It can be an hour presentation, it
could be a six month presentation where we get in
get down and dirty with tools and stuff like that,
equipment and you know, it just depends on the organizational needs.

(54:20):
So that's what we're really looking to do to partner
with other organizations that already have a a roster student
that we can just enhance their you know, their training.

Speaker 1 (54:32):
That's what I'm thinking. A coalition, Yes, that's it right,
get in the game, coalition of rupal organizations that has
the same mission of helping people be better and to
do better. And that means you're gonna have to see
better with these opportunities that are presented in front of you.
And the thing that I love about this markets this
is all unto an individual. How do you want to

(54:53):
change your life? How do you want to show up
in your life? We you got to get out the
way of making excuses talking about you. Ain't got the
experience talking about you, ain't got the access talking about
you limited because you got to make it because you
have set the record straight. Come as you are and
let me give up the game to you. Here's what
I would say, don't play with me, play with yourself

(55:14):
that part right there, period.

Speaker 4 (55:17):
That alt right, because we don't got no time for
that right We here for a.

Speaker 1 (55:20):
Good time, not a long time, and we gotta have
to make account. And making account means taking a chance
for yourself. Making an account means seeking out those resources.
Making a count is to be better and to do
better with your life because you have chosen it. So,
ain't no more excuses about I got this record, ain't
no excuses, I ain't got no skills set, Ain't no
more excuses talking about you. God, ain't got no mentor

(55:42):
because Marcus Savage is on the line right now. Marcus
Savage the founder of getting the Game dot org, helping
people get back into the trades and make your money
at your leisure, doing what you gotta do, and having
somebody that had got your back to show you how
to do it.

Speaker 4 (56:00):
Help with some positions at Jiffy Loop. If anybody looking
for something to go to work, like next week or
next month, or you know, something for the holidays, they
you know, we have a few employers that you know,
give our our applicants a special eye may apply. So
you know, if if someone's looking for a job, we

(56:21):
can help you with that too. But we'd like to
we like to concentrate on the careers and getting their longevity.

Speaker 3 (56:28):
You know.

Speaker 4 (56:28):
I always like to say, uh, you know, when you
have a career, you know, you can you can take
a vacation.

Speaker 7 (56:35):
You know, you can plan things with your family, you know,
and a lot of times you're gonna be off on
the weekends, right and you know with a job, yeah,
they're gonna be Tuesday and Thursday.

Speaker 4 (56:50):
So you know, you got to think about those things
when you're applying and you know, and you're seeking employment.
What do I want to do? Do I want to
go for something fast? Or am I going to struggle
a little bit? Get this training with this not to
get this game, you know, and and and come out
strong and and be successful and something that I can

(57:11):
do for years and years to come. And then at
the end of all that, if I want to own
my own business, I want to be electrical contractor. If
I want to be a carpentry contractor, I want to
be a plumbing contractor. I'm certificate eyes. Right, that's my
new words. I'm certificate eyes to to do that.

Speaker 1 (57:30):
How much it costs?

Speaker 4 (57:32):
Free ninety nine?

Speaker 1 (57:33):
Hold on, I said how much it costs? You said
free ninety nine. So you would have to literally choose
not to be great, not to take advantage of this opportunity, right,
I'll ask the people.

Speaker 4 (57:45):
And that's and that's the reason why I don't. I
don't chase people to come. You gotta want to be here.
You know, this is a this is a trade where
you have to kind of want to do if you
have to understand that, what's what's on the other side,
Because yeah, yeah, once you do that, And that's why
you see the makeup of people out there. You see

(58:06):
you see those guys out there drenching sweat. This guy's
five foot two picking up all this big, old heavy stuff.
But guess what he knows at the end of the day,
I don't have to worry no two jobs. I don't
know how to be fumbling around with this and that
when I get off work at four o'clock because I
started at four in the morning, so I got off

(58:27):
workingfo I'm done for today, you know, and I don't
have to worry about it when I go to another job. Now,
this is this is one of the best things. Let
me get off the phone at this because I'm actually
I'm actually painting the bedroom right now.

Speaker 3 (58:40):
Oh my god, but I wanted to.

Speaker 4 (58:41):
Stop and talk to you. This is one of the
one of the one of the best things I love
about being a union member. So when you when you
finishing the sign, you're getting laid off on a job, right,
because you're always gett laid off at the end of
the job. To getting laid off, you know, sometimes you don't.
But the next time you go to a job or

(59:02):
work site, you don't have to ever negotiate how much
they're gonna pay you what you mean by that, because
the union already did that.

Speaker 1 (59:13):
Oh, because that's the thing. You got somebody that literally
got your bag.

Speaker 4 (59:18):
Yeah, they're gonna show up. They're gonna they always already
in the colective bargaining agreement, right, the carpenter makes this
third period of carpenter makes this amount, right, and so
you already know what you're getting said when you go
to work.

Speaker 1 (59:31):
So what's the disparity with women? Are there a lot
of women in there? Oh?

Speaker 4 (59:36):
Yeah, yeah. So the women that are in the trade
that make it are highly successful. I have one young
lady that is she is she moves up the letter
really quick. Wow. Within four years of her of her
you know, joining the Carpenter's Union, she became a journeyman.

(01:00:00):
Let it took me six years, by the way. So
she finished her her hers in four years, her apprenticeship
in four years. She applied for a safety position, right,
and she now she did her homework. She she took
a certification because she had her uh, her journeyman certificate.

(01:00:20):
Once she received I'm sorry, I'm going in and out,
back and forth. This is how I teach. She she
got her her journeyman certificate and in carpentry, and she
applied for a position called a HT Certified Health and
Safety Trainer. And that's a safety position to make sure
that everybody on the job site has glasses. Any any

(01:00:47):
any thing that you do on the job site that's unsafe,
you'll get right up by that safety person. And so
the safety person just controls the safety on her job site,
complan plans and every team. So Britney, Britney Bradley is
her name. She's working. She was working at LAX as
a safety person. Within two weeks of her passing the test,

(01:01:12):
she was hired by a company called J T WIMSP
and that's a union company. And I can't even tell
you what she's doing now, two three years ago. I
haven't talked to her in a while.

Speaker 3 (01:01:25):
But.

Speaker 4 (01:01:26):
You know, she is doing very well. Bridget Bridget. I
was just butchering the name, but I think it's Bridget Bradley.
Another lady working at LAX doing well. You know, I
can keep on going. There's there's there's a ton of women.
One of my instructors, Mary Whitmore, she was amazing. She no,

(01:01:50):
I know, God could beat her nailing. I haven't met
a guy, and you know when I was in the
trade to beat her nailing. So women are are there,
you know. Kimberly, it's another young lady, Kimberly. She's a
labor awesome worked on the on the train what is
the crunch all line?

Speaker 1 (01:02:07):
Oh wow, that was a huge project that lost.

Speaker 4 (01:02:11):
Right quick.

Speaker 1 (01:02:12):
Wow, So lady, this is.

Speaker 3 (01:02:14):
Not just fun that are willing to work.

Speaker 4 (01:02:16):
All you got to do is be willing to work.
Will worry about lifting too much, you know, not being
strong enough. You just have to be willing to try,
and they'll find something that you can do. Ooh well, gosh,
