So once again, Gina, it is a pleasure to have
you here.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Thank you. I'm excited.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
This is going to be so wonderful. So I want
to I want to know I always ask all my
guests kind of what let them because you're you're an
entrepreneur now, but you haven't always been an entrepreneur, and
you've had some challenges that you've had to overcome in
your personal life. And for those of you, we're just
going to touch on that briefly as you give us

(02:14):
a kind of a background, but for a really in
depth a really great interview that we did together on
the Brain Lady Speaks show about mindset. It's just a
beautiful story. So I encourage you will drop the link
in the website. I mean, in the description and I
encourage you to hear that watch that show as well,

(02:35):
because it was it was a wonderful interview on that.
But in just kind of in general, being an entrepreneur
is not for the faint of heart. It takes a
lot to build an entrepreneurial business to step into that lifestyle,
especially when you're making that change from a corporate structure

(02:55):
where you can punch a time clock, so to speak,
to your own structure where you're working eighty Oh well
not necessarily, but were some weeks you might be working
eighty hours a week? Like tell us a kind of
take us on that journey of Gina, like how did
you how did you get to where you are today? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (03:13):
And I was going to add to that, Julia, I
think it's hard to raise an entrepreneur if you're a
mom or dad.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
It is. We're a little different, aren't we.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yes. And I love this question because it's I think
many of us can sit back and see somebody and think, oh,
that's why they are so driven, or that's why they're
so you know, they need to work by themselves, et cetera.
I think it's part of our DNA. And I do think,

(03:45):
you know, I probably wasn't the easiest child to raise.
And it's not because I was doing drugs or I
had poor grades, but I had an opinion, a very
strong opinion. I started in the fashion industry and I
worked for or two. I was a department store buyer
for two hundred and eighty five stores. It's what I
went to college for. And I absolutely loved what I did.

(04:09):
I went to the Fashion Institute of Technology in Manhattan.
I froze my ass off while I did it, and
I worked in Manhattan and was moved to Charlotte, North
Carolina with this job. And I really was passionate about
still am passionate about the industry. When I am in
a department store or in a boutique, people come to

(04:30):
me asking me questions as if I work there, and
my family thinks it's funny, but I think, once it's
in your blood, it's always in your blood. The problem
for me was that the environment that I was working
in was toxic. And I mean, like, I'll give you
an example. At one point I was buying children's shoes

(04:51):
and the head of Nike or the head of back
then Reebok would come in and say, you can feel
the tension in the building happened today, and so the
people from the outside who are living a healthy life
walking into the building just being greeted by the head person.
I mean, we had fifteen sixteen hundred employees in this

(05:13):
building in Charlotte. That's how intense it was. And it
wasn't because we were doing like these just fabulous fashion
events or things like that. It was just the way
management ran the business, and it trickled down to all
of us. And at that point, I was single. I

(05:33):
owned an affordable condo that was actually probably the same
price as my rent of a one bedroom I had
now upgraded to a two bedroom condo. I had a
cat and a rabbit, and we had plenty of space,
and I loved life. But I was realizing I was
sick to my stomach when I went to bed, and

(05:53):
I woke up sick to my stomach, and I had
to figure out a way to change my mindset to
how do I get up in the morning and go
to bed feeling like somewhat fulfilled at ease. I mean, again,
I'm single, so I have no partner. I was dating,

(06:14):
but you know, not at the point where somebody could
really support me. Mentally, emotionally, physically, it's financially even. But
I figured out that I needed to get up earlier
and go out for a three mile walk at the
gym outside and I liked b I love sunshine, you

(06:34):
know this already. I liked being warm and the weather
was nice, and I just prayed and meditated as I
walked open eye of meditation, and in those three miles,
I got myself excited for the day and I just
told myself I was one day closer to getting out
of this, and I did. I changed fields, but I
stayed in corporate still and it still wasn't It was

(06:58):
again that feeling of this doesn't fit me, I don't
enjoy this. I need to make a change, and that's
what I did. By that point, Julie, I was married
and actually I was pregnant having my son, and so
it was like, Okay, you know, I think I'm just
going to stay home with him, which is what I did,

(07:21):
and then years later became the entrepreneur.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
I love that. And there's a couple of things that
you hit on that I think is important for because
we do have a lot of women that are also
excelling in their corporate they're excelling in you know, as parents.
So there's messages in your story for all of those.

(07:45):
And I love the getting up and being in nature,
yes in the morning. How much do you think that
contributed to my sanity? Yes, your sanity and the length
of time that you were able to maintain a corporate career,
because you having an opinion pretty much makes you an entrepreneur.

(08:06):
From it either makes you an entrepreneur or CEO. So
you're really going to be the CEO of somebody else's company,
You're going to be the CEO of your own right,
So so you kind of had that in your head
from from childhood. How much did being able to be
in nature, take the walks, do that little bit of
self care on a daily basis affect your your your

(08:30):
happiness in life, your satisfaction in life.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
Well, I it's one hundred percent, like a thousandfold. I
can't even put words to it, but I can tell
you this. I no longer woke up with a six stomach.
I woke up excited again because I am I like
tea in the morning, but I don't need a cup
of tea to wake up with a smile. Now, my
husband on the other hand, he needs his coffee. Please
don't speak to him till after he's finished his cup

(08:54):
of coffee. I learned that very quickly when we got married. Well,
I need to I wish I asked that while we
were dating, because it's like, yeah, you're not fun when
you wake up. You don't wake up right eyed, bushytail. Yes,
another day. But I immediately felt like Gina again. I mean

(09:14):
I felt grounded. I felt sane because I was going
insane that it was so the energy was so negative
for everyone, not just myself. I'm not saying everyone felt it.
Everyone complained about it, and some of those people that
I worked with were also my friends. So when we
would go out at night or on the weekend or

(09:37):
you know, have lunch together, it was still talking about
this negative energy, and so it really affected my mood.
It affected my stomach was a knot the minute I
started walking every day in the morning in the morning
instead of exercise, and I did still continue to go
to the gym every other day at night because there

(09:59):
were exercise classes that I really enjoyed, but just waking
up to be outside, to be in nature, to really
feel the wind, the textures of the leaves, the flowers.
You know what I mean to have that for me,
it's eye candy. Yeah, and it just it made everything possible.

(10:21):
It made it so that I could start looking for
another job with a smile on my face when I
was interviewing, not coming from a place of I want
to say, desperation. Right, what's another word, starving energy? You
know what I'm saying. I came from this happy place
like I was authentically myself. That's what it gave me back.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
I love that. I love that you weren't taking that
negative energy from your current job into prospects for a
future job.

Speaker 2 (10:52):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
And you know, neuroscience as a brain lady, it's neuroscience
shows us. Study after study has shown how walking a
green space is just literally being in green spaces. Right.
That's why I always have plants around me, right, it
literally reaching out and touching the plants. There's even been
some studies done on talking to the plants. Absolutely, it's
just it's so it's therapy for your brain and your

(11:17):
emotional state, and so that can help you to get
through difficult times, whatever that difficult time may be, whether
it's taking the edge off or just improving your overall
attitude so you can leave the toxic negativity at the
work or wherever you're at and be happy yourself.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
Right. Yeah, And I think to see possibilities, you know,
it glumps into that too. I think when we're in
negative energy, or around toxic people, or in an environment
that have no green not in the office right now,
and it changes the way we see things, almost like

(12:00):
the veil. And then you keep adding these veils, and
the minute you start going outside, like you're saying, it's
like your eyes open and see the possibilities and see
that the future can be bright, that yes, there is
an ability to change and get out. Like for me,
it was like plain monopoly passing go collecting two hundred

(12:22):
dollars getting out of jail, you know what I mean.
It was really because that company had moved me from
relocated me from Charlotte, from New York to Charlotte, and
so I had given up a boyfriend, friends, I had
given up like the knowing of where things are, the

(12:44):
ways of the street. You know, I had to start
all over from scratch. And then you're thinking, what did
I do? I made a mistake? But I realized, yeah, no,
there was a reason I was brought there. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
Yeah, well that's where you met your husband, right, yes, exactly, Go,
so now let's move forward. You're enjoying your time being
a mom, which I applaud you for, and not that
I also applaud women who go right back to work.
It's like being a woman being a mom, whether you

(13:18):
have a career, or you're at home, or you're homeschooling,
whatever it is. I applaud everyone because we're shaping the
next generation and having a positive energy there is important.
And I know that during this time you did have
some personal challenges, which we explored more on the Brain
Lady Speaks, but kind of take us like, now fast

(13:41):
forward to when did you decide, Okay, I'm ready to
embrace being an entrepreneur as well as being a mom,
because you're still mom. You're never going to stop being
a mom, but it's just different stages in motherhood.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
Eventually you become the cool mom when your kids are
in there. I don't know, thirties, I haven't yet yet.

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Right, become a smart mom, it's like.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Right, exact, Wow, Wow, if only I listened to you, yes,
And if my mom's listening, she's shaking her head go up. Yes,
right exactly. So at this point I was teaching yoga
and loving being able to deliver a mindset in a

(14:27):
way that would really make an impact on my students,
who are both men, women, and even teenagers depending on
time of day that I taught. And I'll just mention
it very briefly, but we did go into Mark losing
my husband falling ill, needing a kidney and liver transplant,

(14:50):
and that was really the catalyst that then said, Okay,
I need to do things bigger. I did dabble with
a few MLMs that I loved. One was with Skincare
and Healthy and uh, California based company but using Swiss standards,
and so that aligned with my desire for healthy living

(15:13):
because of my husband's illness and he did survive. But
and then I did jewelry because as you know, I
love I love.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Jewelry, love the blank Yes, I love I love bling,
I love light.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
And once Mark was healthy and my kids were older
in a place where they could really manage themselves, you know,
that's when I started, I don't even know if you
know this Paddle to Paradise, which was a paddle board business.

(15:47):
I took. I did paddle board yoga, paddle board lessons
and paddle board picnics excursions and it was so much
fun and my kids. My son became a guide. My
husband was a guy just in case when we had
too many people. I liked to have several guides. And
my son would always say, why do people tell you

(16:08):
the most personal things? People will always say something to
me and go, I never told anybody that my husband
doesn't even know this. Why did I just tell you that?
And you know, my husband's like that is true? And
my daughter too, and so I realized there was more.
And I love teaching yoga, but for me, I wanted

(16:31):
to do something where I can touch people one on
one and touch people who I'm going to say have influence,
and I don't mean with social media, but maybe maybe
they have a large following, maybe they have a large
bank account, Maybe they have a large passion and can
muster up the right people. Maybe they're going to change

(16:52):
the world with a five oh one C three charity.
I don't know, but I felt like if I could
pour what I know into them and then they can
go out and reach thousands of people, then I am
causing this huge riftball and that's how I started my business,
which is blissed out fit and FIDLLC and from that

(17:14):
comes exquisitely aligned.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
I love it. I didn't know. I'm like, oh, man,
I want to go on one of your paddle board tours.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
Now I still have him, Julie, You're more than welcome coming.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
Well, you are absolutely going to have to keep us
keep me informed on those. I would make the trip
down to see you for that, definitely, maybe not in
the winter, but I won't.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Be out there in the winter, don't you worry.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
I'm kind of a baby about that. So now you
noticed this comfort You brought a comforting energy, a safe
place energy obviously into that world of interacting with your
clients that were paddleboarding with you, and you took that

(18:01):
to the next level into a coach and consultant aspect
of your business. So what is the main thing that
you have found you love about that portion of your
business and what is it that you do for your clients.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
Yeah, so the main thing for me is that excitement
right waking up in the morning, like you can't wait
to get to your desk, which I know sounds a
little ridiculous. But I think when we find our true
purpose are calling and we're able to blend it all
with our desires and use. For me, it's a lot

(18:46):
of life experiences. My life has not been easy. It's
been a bunch of twists and turns. Some people have
said to me, oh my god, what does everything happen
to you? And I'm like, you know, it's kind of
cool because then I can relate to other people as well.
But I think that when we're able to bring all
those gifts together, you know, people pay us lots of
money and we are able to impact people for life.

(19:10):
I have someone right now who's only twenty four. She
is in Europe and just a brilliant, brilliant woman. Young
I want to say young, but she's you know, twenty
four going on twenty five. And she was at a
place where she was in a field that was correct,

(19:34):
but it wasn't bringing her financial success, it wasn't fulfilling
her purpose. And it was just these small little tweaks
that we made that I could see. She is a
person who loves depth, and she works in social media.
She's not about likes, thumbs up and hearts and all that.

(19:56):
She's about really getting messages out and her grandfather was
a famous writer. I mean, so it's like you can
all of a sudden see, yeah, she's here for big change,
not the thumbs up and the hearts. And so when
she started, we started working together and figuring out how

(20:18):
can we switch it up so that she's working with
the right she has the right clients who are able
to pay her what she values herself at. We worked
on that too, mindset again and she made small, tiny,
what I want to say, little tweaks on a dial
and she said to me, just on Monday, I'm showing

(20:41):
up differently and if I love it good, and she's
I asked her immediately to spend more time in nature,
go for a walk, and then sit quietly and listen
to her intuition. She's extremely intuitive. And she had said
to me the other day, you know, when I met you,
I had spent the first half of the year paying

(21:02):
for all these different coaches, different programs. She said, I
spent a lot of money, a lot of time, a
lot of energy. And she said they all took me
away from my truth to a point where she was
actually feeling I don't want to use the word depressed,
because it not medically you know, depressed, right, right, right,

(21:24):
So what's a better word help me do this?

Speaker 1 (21:26):
Lack of luster?

Speaker 2 (21:27):
Yes, totally lack of luster, thank you, because I was like,
you know, I don't like to use terms that are
also medical terms, because right. But she was definitely lacking luster,
feeling like there was no direction, and the minute we
got that focus, it's like she's on fire. She also
said no to a party of her dear friend. As

(21:51):
she was getting prepared, she said, I heard your voice
in my head. She felt anxious, just pulling out an
outfit again. Now she's twenty four, full girl entrepreneur, and
she said, I realized I was getting anxious. I heard
your voice in my head. I figured out why I
was anxious, and I decided not to go. Now her

(22:12):
mom and stepdad weren't happy because they want her to
go out, be social, meet a guy. And I said
to her, I'm so glad that you didn't go out.
What did you do? Oh? It was great. I read
a great novel. You know. I woke up refreshed in
the morning. She said. Had I gone, I may have
drank a little too much because I was anxious. I

(22:34):
would have left the party early because I wasn't having fun.
The conversations there are not deep. And I said, exactly, now,
you know where you want to put yourself. That was Saturday.
On Friday, she put herself into a business networking event
that is normally not near her and she went and

(22:57):
came home with three new clients. You know, and I said,
so little. It's not like we have to go out
and reinvent ourselves. It's just being clear and having that focus.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
I agree one hundred percent. I think sometimes I feel
that sometimes people don't expand or not necessarily, don't seek
out a coach, don't take the courses, don't they just
it becomes very overwhelming and they think they're going to
have to make all these changes. However, when you approach
it with the what's the one thing, Yeah, I'm just

(23:33):
going to go into this with the one the one
percent change? Right, there's that whole rule that was it Banichick?
Who is it Caryvanchik who says.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
That I don't even know now I'm finking, yeah, I know,
I just messed it up, right, you know, one just
one percent improvement, just that one percent change can start
to can start to tweak everything I love I love
that you helped her create her boundaries, right, because that's
something that will lot of us.

Speaker 1 (24:02):
We feel guilty for right, for that, you know, listening
to our gut like oh I really should go do this,
or oh I really should do this for that person,
instead of recognizing, okay, I there are boundaries and it's okay, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
It's okay, especially like her not going to her friend's party.
She's like, she's a really good friend of mine. And
I was like, okay, but tell me, And I knew
what she was going to say. She said, I would
have more fun having dinner just with her or a
few of us and then going out. She said, But
to walk into a party with one hundred people who

(24:36):
are drinking a little too much and have you know,
it's noisy, nobody's going to have a deep conversation. It's
very shallow, right, how's the weather and what's new? And
what's new? Is very like, let me be proficial.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
Yes, yeah, I love that. I love that. I love
that you can help help individuals to get to that point.
Now let's talk about book, because I want I want
everybody to see these two She gifted me with one
of these it's oh, it's going to be backwards, right.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
But it's correct.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
It's open to possibilities. Their journal props, contemplation and conversation starters,
and I love them. I've used them, and.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
I've tagged you.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
I think I've tagged you. I hope i've tagged you.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
I will.

Speaker 1 (25:19):
I will make sure I tag you in the future.
They're just great little things to think about. And it's
starting your day off with that. That's great. It's very inspirational.
And now you've you have a book that's that uh
should be available here directly. So let's let's tell me
about the book, like what inspired you to want to
write the book in the first place, and then tell

(25:42):
us about the book itself.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Yeah. So I think I think that in life, we
get these invitations and we get to say yes or
no to them, just like my client. I almost said
her name, who said no to the invitation of the party,
And I was pushed probably actually it was probably during COVID,

(26:05):
so maybe three four years ago by someone I hired
to help me with my press room, my public relations,
and she said, you need to start writing, and I
fought her on it. She's fiery. I'm fiery. You know,
we're both entrepreneurs, both women, and I'll never forget like

(26:26):
thinking you can't make me do that, kind of just
the way like I would have acted with my mom
when I was a kid, you can't make me do that.
I don't write, I speak, and she kept telling me
you have to write, you have to write. So initially
I had hired a team to help me write just
some of the little I started small, like I had

(26:47):
information for a blog post, and I didn't want to
sit there and figure out how to make it entertaining.
I just wanted to give them my information and they did,
and you know, that went on for a while, and
then I started writing magazine articles. And then I had
started podcasting, and I did two seasons worth of teaching

(27:12):
and teaching things that I had taught for decades but
never filmed and got really clear. And then I thought, wow,
those two seasons could be magazine articles, and so I
finally started writing them. And then I approached a local
magazine here and I said, I have two years worth

(27:33):
of magazine articles that could go into print. Would you
like to look at them? And they said yes, and
they came back immediately. Oh my god, we want you.
And then a girlfriend said, hey, you should approach someone.
I know, she has two magazines. You might like her,
she might like you. When I had lunch with her
and she said the same, Yes, I want you. And

(27:53):
then that became like, oh, I have this wealth of
two years worth of information. Maybe there's a new way
to do this. And that's when I was like, I
finally have my book. Years ago, Julie, when Mark was sick,
I thought we would write a book, Me from my
side as the caregiver, him from his side as the

(28:14):
doctor who became ill and was now in the bed.
And he never wanted to tell his story. He still doesn't.
I think it's too painful for him. And I'm glad
I never told that story more than just an answer
on a podcast because it's not inspiring. Well maybe it
can be inspiring, but not the way the book has

(28:36):
shaped to be. So I just followed those breadcrumbs as
one thing led to the other, led to the other,
led to the other. And now I'm super excited. I mean,
we just finished the front and back cover. She's doing
the layout now, the interior layout, and it's I mean,
you're published, so you know what it's like it's like

(28:57):
having a baby. You know, it's like, Oh, the baby's coming.
This is great. Only I know what the baby looks like.
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (29:06):
That's so cool. So what are some of the messages
in the book, because it is called exquisitely well, it
is exquisitely are aligned. That's the title of the book.
So tell us, tell us what's the messaging in the book.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
So oftentimes I think we are you were mentioning earlier
about seeking out mentorship, a coach, et cetera. And sometimes
the other portion of that, what I find is people
are afraid of being judged, and so in there I
explain the authority paradign We live in a world that

(29:44):
begs us to conform. I mean, you see it at
the minute you walk out the door, if you open
your social media, right, we should all look like this,
sound like that. If you want to have a podcast,
you need to follow Julie's way of whatever you're doing today, right,
And I believe we have to break free of that.
There's a conformity trap in there. There's also identity paradox

(30:08):
and then overcoming judgment from others who might be judging
you well, who does she think she is with a show,
with a business speaking at these engagements, right, And sometimes
that judgment is also our own. And I'm sure you've
seen it with clients yourself. You get them to a

(30:29):
point and then you realize, oh, there's a little bit
of judgment here. But I like to show in there
you'll find exquisite gems with things that you can do
to help yourself. For instance, cards that you were just
holding up, ask questions that oftentimes bring about maybe a thought,
a memory, and excitement. And in the book there'll be questions.

(30:52):
There'll be some exercises people, and I don't mean stretching exercises,
but you know brain stretching exercise to allow us to
really and truly align with who we are. I believe
we were born exquisite, and just like our fingerprint, we
don't have to be like anybody else. We're actually when

(31:12):
we step into who we really are, that's when we
bring forth what the world's been always missing, which most
of the time was that person because they were trying
to appease someone else or to go for that next promotion,
and they thought they had to change or be someone
else or look differently.

Speaker 1 (31:33):
Yeah, I love it. I can't I can't wait to
I can't wait to read it. I'm looking forward to it.
I am looking forward to it. We'll get it as
soon as as soon as I can can do that,
and of course we'll we'll re well, we'll send out
a notice to all of our email lists as well
for that. It's it's going to be a wonderful, powerful book.

(31:54):
I have no doubt it'll be a bestseller for sure.
And I love the message that you bring. I love
the message that you bring. So before we wrap this up,
give me like for women to excel. Keeping in mind
that we're talking about excelling everywhere, so meaning excelling wherever
you're at. So it's not just excelling as an as

(32:15):
an entrepreneur, excelling as a mom, excelling as an individual,
excelling as a corporate person. It's just wherever you're at.
Is what our goal at the WEI is to help
you excel to the extent that you want to excel,
because I want I want everyone to have that feeling
that you had after your three you know, the three
mile walk every morning, that you could bring that positive energy,

(32:37):
you could you could be happy excelling even if the
work environment wasn't the best. What's the one piece of advice,
what's that that golden gem that Gina, that Gina Diamond,
that Gina blaying that that you could tell our listeners
to to help them just maybe start thinking a little

(33:00):
differently or opening their brain to possibilities.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
I think so for me, it's always avoid crowds towards
in your confidence. I think if people can just take
a moment and tune in. And I understand because I've
had some clients that argued with me, let's say, or
challenge me, oh, I'm disconnected, I'm not intuitive. So forth,

(33:24):
I believe we're all born intuitive. If you watch a
young child, and I don't mean a baby even, but
you know a child playing, they're intuitive. They know who
they like, why they like the person, and they'll also
sometimes tell their mom, I don't like this, you know,
kid or a person, and they're usually correct, you know.

(33:47):
And I think if we can just trust our judgment.
Even as fiery as I was, when Lynette said to me, hey,
you need to start writing, I said to her, I
need to sleep on it. It goes against what I
desire right now, and I need to see if I
feel called to it and I'm glad. Then I did

(34:07):
feel you know, there was this intrigue of like maybe
I should try something new, never knowing that this would
end up, you know, rolling into a book. But I
think if we could stop and take a moment to
slow down and just really ask ourselves, do I want
to hang out with these people? Do I want this job?

(34:28):
Do I feel good here? Whatever? The question is, do
I want to listen to gossip? I don't. To me,
it's a waste of my energy, you know what I mean?
And I never know if it's true. Like usually there's
two sides to his story, and it might not even
be true what someone's saying. Like I think our time, money,
and energy we have to value so much. And if

(34:51):
you just listen to your intuition or inner knowing what
however you want to call it, that gut instinct, it
can help you move forward in every facet of your life.
