SPEAKER_02 0:11

I'm surprised you're as good as an edge.

SPEAKER_00 0:13

Do you wanna do you wanna hear it back? We can hear it back with all the edits. And then if I need to put something in there, we can do a different. Go for it. Are you sure?

SPEAKER_04 0:23

Yeah. Go for it.

SPEAKER_03 0:28

All right.

SPEAKER_00 0:29

I'll get this done and we'll get it out Wednesday. Wednesday or Thursday this week, if not before. Sometimes when I'm excited about something, I get it done, and it's like, oh, it's only Monday. I am interviewing that. Do you remember me talking about this Stephen guy that wrote a book called The Venus Fly Trap? Yes. Well, lo and behold, I thought, okay, they emailed me another time. And it's like, this is ridiculous. I keep emailing them and they don't respond. So I thought, okay, I'm going to give them one more shot. I emailed this person back, um, must be his assistant or something. And I said, if you know, I've been trying to reach you guys, this will be my last attempt. Um, if you want to be on the show, then I need a phone number because the phone number that you left on the on my website is not working. Yeah. So that's the only way, that's the only other way I have to connect with you. So here's my phone number. If you wish to participate in a show, please call me and we'll get something scheduled. You know, otherwise, best of luck. And so he called me himself. And uh he starts telling me all the questions he wants me to ask him.

SPEAKER_02 2:05

I don't think so.

SPEAKER_00 2:06

And I said, I would be happy to review your questions, but this has to align with my brand, and I'll have a list of my own. So would you like them before we interview? Or he he was like tripping all over himself. He did not know how to answer that. And I wasn't trying to be a jerk, I was just you know, dude, this is not your opportunity, this is an interview. I mean, it is an opportunity, right? But um he would take it, you know. So I told him I'm happy to review it, and if some of them align with, you know, where where I wanted to go, great. If not, you know, I probably won't use them. So um he said, Well, okay, okay, all right, that's fine. And I said, So would you like me to send you the questions? Uh no, no, I don't think so. I said, Okay, okay, so this will be interesting when when I'm working with him. So you're gonna still still I'm gonna do it because I'll just ask him my questions. And if there are some in there that he has, which he did not send, um, if he does send them, I will, you know, I'll review them and ask if you know, ask some of them if if they align.

SPEAKER_02 3:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 3:34

Um, but he really won't have any idea what questions I'm gonna be asking. And I had another person do that, and they were they did just fine. Um, but I think sometimes having the questions, you can be more mindful, you have the time to be more thoughtful about it. Someone was saying, Well, I just want to be authentic, and I said, Well, that's great, but you can be just as authentic by having the questions and yeah, taking them in, knowing where you want to go with it, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I just wanted to reassure her that it's okay to have the questions.

SPEAKER_02 4:16

Is that the country singer?

SPEAKER_00 4:18

No, she didn't show up.

SPEAKER_02 4:20

Oh, what a shame.

SPEAKER_00 4:21

Yeah, yeah. I don't, I didn't, I texted her a couple different times. Like, you gonna get on? She didn't show up, nothing. Oh, not a peep. Never heard from her.

SPEAKER_02 4:34

Oh, that's miserable.

SPEAKER_00 4:36

Yeah, and I had I had it all set up, all ready to rock and roll. She would have been an easy one, she would have been like the gal um from Hunkapei Farms, yeah, because they're so in alignment already with what I'm doing that she could have probably flowed pretty easily, but you know, she probably got busy. She was recording in July, that was her second album, so I'm not taking it personally. Yeah, no, you can't, yeah, yeah. I'm sure she won't be the last. Yeah, as I move forward, so good.

SPEAKER_02 5:17

Anyway, at least it's coming together, so yeah.

SPEAKER_00 5:20

So I'll I'll get yours out and then I'll interview Steven and I'll get his out. Um know if it would make sense. So he is a spiritual coach, he's a dot, he calls himself a doctor. I don't know. I have to go back and read his whole bio. Um, and he's he's got quite a following, and I don't know if he would be open to sharing my um my retreat somehow. Like if he has an email list or something, I'm gonna talk to him about that because I think it would be more in alignment. Like, I mean, because his book is about dysfunctional relationships, right? Right, obsessive type stuff. Um I'll have to read through his information one more time and then talk to him a little bit about it and see. I think some people do, right? They'll do that and then I don't know, maybe I advertise for him. I mean, maybe we could swap. Do you think people do that stuff? Oh, sure. Yeah, all the time.

SPEAKER_02 6:34

Yeah. I think you know, I'm gonna have you on and I'm asking you if you might share this link or something when you put it out there and promote Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 6:46

I don't know. I'm going to uh uh networking thing that is actually for podcast people in August in this month. So I'm hoping to kind of get a little more uh information how people are getting their stuff out there, you know. I mean, is it just that people aren't jumping on each other's podcasts? What am I missing? Because I feel like I'm missing something.

SPEAKER_02 7:15

You know what too? You can put it out on Facebook, put it out on Instagram, put it through the podcast. Is there a place, a little cafe or something that you go to on a regular basis that you could do a flyer and put it on a bulletin board?

SPEAKER_00 7:32

Um, I've really never looked for bulletin boards, but I could, I mean if I do a flyer, yeah, I could do something like that.

SPEAKER_02 7:43

That might be kind of interesting.

SPEAKER_00 7:45

Yeah, there was a group um called the Desert Ridge ladies. I sent it to them wonder and asking if I could get permission to post to the group because it's all there, it's all women. Not that this has to be all women retreat, it does not. Um Joe Ray actually clicked on it and said he's interested in it.

SPEAKER_02 8:08

Oh, good.

SPEAKER_00 8:09

So there might be some uh men that would want to join. Um, but the Desert Ridge um that's right here, so I thought, well maybe they'd accept it, but they haven't yet. So they might not do advertising in some groups. Yeah, you never know. Yeah, yeah. So I'm just kicking around right now.

SPEAKER_04 8:32

Hey marketing guy, we need you, we need your input.

SPEAKER_02 8:42

How else can she get the word out besides online for the retreat?

SPEAKER_00 8:47

Just for the retreat. Probably I was thinking too, what what do you think about this? I went and got a massage at this new Serenity Spa here in Scottsdale that I go to frequently. Oh, yeah, and I thought, I wonder if they have an email list we could send it out to. And for her doing that, I could have her as like a sponsor or something. Yes, definitely.

SPEAKER_02 9:17

Would Abby promote it to her people for you too?

SPEAKER_00 9:20

She I don't think she has a big you know, she's she's kind of she's actually looking for a job job right now. She's she's she doesn't she too is kind of looking to follow or uh build. Um but there's another gal that is gonna be a part of this. Um she does the sound bowls or the singing bowls, and she's a yoga um certified yoga person, and her name is Deborah. She too, I don't think has a big following, but I'm sure she would send it out to you only 12. Right, right. If if you all send it out, yeah, then yeah, I would approach the spa and yeah, I think I'm going to because I've dropped enough money there that I think she might be willing to hear me out on it.

SPEAKER_02 10:12

It's worth a shot.

SPEAKER_00 10:30

I mean, the only service that other service I get is my massage. That's that new serenity spot.

SPEAKER_02 10:37

Do a flyer, send it to Matt.

SPEAKER_00 10:41

Post it in his office. Do you think he has a clientele for it? I mean he hasn't kind of made me feel like he doesn't really have I know he has an older clientele. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 10:56

But he's got single women up there and couples and people that do that stuff, and somebody might be interested in it because they are, you know, they're into naturopathic healing. So it might resonate. Do a flyer send it to him and say, hey, I'm doing this retreat. Can you post this in your office?

SPEAKER_01 11:16

No, when you do your flyer, send us a PDF copy. Okay. It's just a PDF that we can correct. And um, I can go around and file a hill and I need a dentist, you guys.

SPEAKER_00 11:42

Do you have a really good dentist?

SPEAKER_01 11:44

Yeah, she has a program too. Yeah where instead of insurance, still do insurance. She just switched off to this thing where it's not insurance, but it's for services. So it's like a year. What is it? A year?

SPEAKER_02 11:58

It's like four hundred and something a year. And you get two cleanings, your x-rays, a whole set of x-rays, um, the fluoride treatment, something else.

SPEAKER_01 12:09

So it's a large per it's a percentage off of any. And then you get a discount off of other treatments that you need any. And we looked into it as opposed to doing Delta Dental. Yeah, that's what I have is Delta Dental. And a lot of people aren't.
