Those sneaky voices in your head aren't you! he said that and I began to see them as mental barriers to give some for of resistance to one's life journey. Barriers will always be encountered; it's how we climb over them to keep moving that counts.
Thank you both. 🙏
“My kids adjust to my schedule” it released half of my guilty feelings for being a working mom lol. 🧡🧡🧡
Emma GREED
Okay that's cool
So good! I for some reason got emotional toward the end. I had a moment where I felt that I would love to be in the position Emma is in to still experience challenges and drama but be so grateful and be able to offer opportunities to other women of color. She made me feel like it’s possible.
wow, what a refreshing, honest, spontaneous, empowered woman. favorite episode so far, it felt so real, not curated answers, just a real conversation. role model from now on.
Amei todas as bolsas lindas e de muito bom gosto.Parabens *esluxscom*
This woman is soo inspiring 😍 I am amazed by her. This is an incredible interview and I loved every moment of it🥰
The Oprah / Quincy Jones story as a reminder that no one is watching as much as we are watching ourselves is such a great reminder. Thanks for this show.
Loving the consistency to keep making a difference in so many lives! The constant growth & change hits me well. Keep up the great work Jay 🎉❤
She’s so positive, her mindset is just empowering and how she doesn’t believe the voices in her head or knows what they are. I love that
That was so brilliant! I am 58 years old and have made the decision to step out of my comfort zone some months ago. I am taking the relevant courses to do this and listening to Emma who is from the East End like myself has inspired me to keep it moving. I was touched to hear that her mum told her what I tell my own children and grandchildren - your no better than anyone and no one is better than you! Thanks for sharing x
you still young...
The wisest thought that is in everyone's minds today is to invest in different income flows that do not depend on the government, especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver and digital currencies (BTC, ETH.... stock,silver and gold)
As an independent man I started my first investment plan with just a $1000 and now earning weekly income of $4830 in cryptocurrency exchange with my personal broker.
Inspiring! Do you think you can give me some advice on how to invest in a healthy way as you are doing?
Bitcoin has been falling for a while now and could fall further or close to rise again. The truth is that no one knows, I believe it's the right time to buy and also get a pro's assistant
Mrs. Claudia Jenkins is my personal professional broker, I met her at a conference in 2018 and we have been working together ever since.
Isn't that the same Mrs. Claudia Jenkins that my neighbours are talking about, she has to be a perfect expert for people to talk about her so well
Honestly I love how Jay listens and engages with his guests. Truly a talented interviewer.
Your channel does so much for me as a musician and entrepreneur, I always relate so much to each guest you have on and it reminds me why I do what I do!!!!!! 🎉Thank you
A few of the insights I gained from listening to Emma and Jay:
✴Never stay in your lane☺
✴Be kind, it costs so little to be kind yet goes a long way💞
✴Live with gratitude🙏
✴Don't be too afraid of failure, step out and do things anyway💪
✴Don't waste time/energy worrying about decisions already made. Make the decision, then make it work!🌟
✴Be the best at whatever you do, even if it's serving tables✴
im a terrible note taker, i got a page written out (front and back), plus a paragraph on a second page. I could have just stole your notes. 😭
'What is hard work?' Hard work is getting up thinking about the end goal when you're nowhere near close to it but you can see a pathway. Yes!She is a great example that anything is possible.Thanks Emma really wanted to hear this❤
It’s so awesome to someone like me on the show. When i say me i mean a black woman from a not so great living environment, working on herself and her businesses make it to success. I love her story and it gives me motivation to keep going!!! 💪🏾
❤
This woman is amazing- we need more role models and leaders like her! thank you Jay for inviting her. She's so amazing and so accomplished- inside and out. She's totally right about the "impostor" syndrome which is so one sided as it applies to only women in business but not men. I've heard it being ask of many women on podcasts and interviews.
She is amazing and authentic! I know her brand, but I’ve never heard her speak. We need more of her on the internet talking about life. This is one of the most realistic interviews I’ve seen in a long time. Very refreshing!
I think that this interview is one of the most inspiring interviews I have ever watched. Emma has just become a real inspiration to me, and everything she said is what I exactly needed to hear.
Sending love and kindness to you both, and to anyone who sees this comment ❤
Iam a 22 year old female from South Africa and I am really thankful for this message and Emma. I am on a journey of self discovery and starting something new and Emma has inspired and answered most of my questions. It sometimes gets hard thinking about the future since we are not surrounded by many people who are entrepreneurs but content like this adds value in to our lives. I can't wait wait to come back with results as I put every thought/ advice into action. Thank you Jay🤗
I’m also from South Africa and looking forward to seeing your results on your self help journey. It’s the most amazing journey you will value for the rest of your life 🎉
This made me cry because she’s the person I KNOW I will think of when I make it. Currently going thru everything she went thru while working on my business on the low. This really touched my heart 😍❤️
This was such an impactful interview! There were so many nuggets and gems that I could mention, but the one thing that stood out the most was to make a decision and move on, and never stay in your lane. The mind can do such powerful things if we would just get unstuck, and truly believe that ANYTHING is indeed possible.
Her energy is amazing!!! So enthusiastic and positive, like a ray of sunshine! Love so many things she has touched on, another fantastic interview, Jay! Thanks to you and Emma!!!
Really is !!!
Love them both!
Emma is amazing!!! So straight to the point and inspiring. I’m currently 22 managing my home and working 2 jobs alongside starting my business as a jeweller. This episode was everything I needed and more. Empowering to say the least
Wow love the work ethic! Sending you all the blessings and prosperity on your business endeavours 👏🏾
@@tamiaj851 love and blessings to you 😊
I love Emma Grede sm 🥹♥️ Such a powerhouse, a force! So happy she's your guest this week 🙌🏾
This was one of my favorites interviews on the show ❤
I really like her. I found her relatable and real. I also felt her when she said, “Get me back into my Office.”
Her laugh and spirit 😍. Keep kicking ass. I'm inspired!
This was GREAT. Thank you both for this episode.
She is such a strong and positive minded woman. I’m writing all the take aways in my journal from your show jay. Thank you so much for such an incredible show .
So True - Create new memories, activities, projects and moments to keep growing relationships.
Loved this one Jay!! Emma is such an inspiration and seems like such a nice genuine person. :)
This is Dynamite! Absolutely incredible. Every single word relatable & incredible 🎉
Thank you for this wonderful episode! Respect and yes .. such lovely voices ! Could hear you both all day !
Listening to this while at work😍 I love Emma so much.
LOVE this episode! My favorite takeaway is not being afraid to fail. Build up endurance and resilience and “fail right”, whatever that looks like for you, but be in a mental state to where you can learn and move on with those learnings to try again. 🎉
The *esluxscom* would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
I needed every bit of this episode because I am on the path of starting my own small business. And her saying “make a decision and move on” is so powerful for me right now because I am Sssooooooooo indecisive!!!!! Thank you so much Emma. I really appreciate your mind, heart, and spirit with this interview 💚💚💚💚
You got this! Wishing you the best of luck :)
Same!
Same here!! I wish you all the luck and success in the world 🫶🏾 you've got this! 🤗
May I ask what do you feel is driving your indecision?
Wishing you all the success ❤
She's an American but her accent defines her why she's very good at everything.. absolutely great to watch these two people sharing their thoughts and intelligents with us ❤
She’s actually British hence her accent
she's from east london
She’s born and raised in London, England. She’s British
What does this even mean???????
East Londoner
I love that she takes her kids equally as seriously as her career!
If we can create balance in all areas of life, we can be super happy. Takes intentionality!
I just stumbled upon this video at just the perfect time in my Entrepreneurial journey. I loved her transparency about her education, Entrepreneur journey failures, her love for family and her husband. The best advice for me from the interview was make a decision and move on. The interview was so authentic from a place compassion for others.
Great interview! Kind-Motivated-Tough = perfect formula!
This episode was so good! I have been following Emma for years now when I discovered she was the founder of Good American. Her strength, boldness and will power is so inspiring to me! Thank you both for dropping so many gems. I will definitely use them when I start my business! 🙌🏾👏🏾💪🏾❤️
Loved everything about this episode. Emma was dropping so many gems but the biggest takeaways were 1) Simplification 2) Having ambitions outside of motherhood (as a mother myself this hit me) and 3)Make a decision and move on.
Until today, I had never heard of Emma Grede😮 This woman is absolutely amazing! Her story and journey is real and yet extraordinary. Her words hit me in a place that Is it only understood if you come from a certain place and even though she's from across the pond the system and environment/community that held her but that she needed to be released from resonates so much with my story🤯 her truths are so profound and her ability to simplify and share those truths in a way that is positive and not a woe is me story is a gift for me and everyone listening to this podcast. I love her energy, her voice, and her humility. But then there's this level of confidence, drive, passion, I'm not taking no for an answer and you're not taking anything from me power that she exudes even through this podcast!! While watching this I didn't know whether to cry or laugh.... But I extremely proud of her resilience and level of gratitude that she has even at her level - amazing! Emma thank you for sharing your story and your glory. Jay thanks for your efforts to bring her to your podcast cuz it has been a blessing 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Accepting NO as their loss. Truly believing in oneself. Being grateful.❤
This is amazing. “How to build wealth
The first step to building wealth is figuring out your goaIs and risk toIerance - either on your own or with the heIp of a financiaI pIanner, and foIIowing through with an inteIIigent pIan, you wiII gain financiaI growth over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.
I am fortunate I made productive decisions that changed my finances (gathered over 1M in 2years) through my financiaI planner. Got my 2nd house in Feb, and hoping to retire soon. Give this a try and attain good-returns.
Emma had lucky stars for the right sources to fall into her break besides creativity talent, and ambitions + a niche to stay in biz ! A long term garment trader most of my life from all aspects and seen the ups and downs of the biz! Wishing her the best! Finally what counts is striving to live a mindful life! 🙏🏽
Excellent episode! So much wisdom and knowledge to take in. This is definitely a watch it once and just listen then watch it again to take notes. 🙌🏽
Oh my word never knew about her, her wisdom is top tier, I hope to meet her oneday and have a conversation with her, first time watching an episode till the end#Shes so oooo authentic,And it's not as complicated as we think guys, lol...
Her energy... Love love love her❤❤❤❤
Wow! The wisdom that has been dropped during this podcast is life changing! So raw and needed!!! As a single mother raised in the USA south is a message so many need to hear. This frames “motherhood” in a really new way. Bold admissions that may give some exactly what they need to push forward. I will listen again with a notebook and pen. I listened while on a walk originally. Thank you. Not what I was expecting! In a good way.
LOVED THIS! I really relate to Emma, but what I love the most is the unapologetic way she took Jay's compliments and recognition to her steadfast belief in herself. I also grew up in the "Oprah Generation", which had a BIG impact on how I live my life and approach challenges. I definitely need to lean in more to my own abilities with that same confidence! Thanks to you both!
I love her words on how women can be moms and career driven which is very inspiring and meaningful for career driven women!
such an inspiring and powerful episode! thank you both :)
So excited for this 🙏💯🧡
Emma's energy is fire 🔥 and inspiring. I have just been grinning from ear to ear listening to her. Thank you, Jay, for bringing us these incredible stories from such great personalities. ❤
I am so glad she's brought up "Imposter Syndrome" because it's been a term introduced to my world, as well. I looked at it as telling your child they have "Imposter Syndrome". We would never do that!!
And I find her perspective that we don't label men in this way interesting as well.
I appreciate her openness about the personal sacrifices that success can entail - a reminder that success is a holistic concept.
I was just telling my partner how I would love to attend a masterclass by Emma. This was really invaluable, thank you both. - Budding entrepreneur
Emma Grese has been my role model for a while. I love what she demonstrates, and the fact that she includes more women who represent what I look like, and communities who are marginalized, is unwavering. It's inspiring me to build my own women's health company with diversity, and inclusion, and represent more of us women in the center. Thank you for this conversation.
I love this!! It spoke to my spirit!! Let's get it done!!!
This is such a special episode, thank you for what you do. Some podcasts will feel more personal and every single one of them comes up at the right time of my life. It is inspiring to see people do what they love and learning from every experience, even if not ideal. But what is? Thank you, truly.
Absolutely loved the humour and liveliness of the episode, imagining how much y'all enjoyed recording this. So full of learning🙌🏾
Never knew her until today, but enjoying her way of talk and thinking 🤔. I can relate to having every job under the Sun ☀️ but not enjoying them, but making the best of each job. Putting my all into it. ❤so at the age of 37, a child of God, I pray God to place me in a space of living it all, not just convenience
she's been a guest shark on recent Shark Tank eps btw. that's where i first saw/heard of her.
I believe in you Cornelia
First saw her on the Kardashians and literally thought she was the project manager for Khloe's brand. I then saw her host a dinner with a few UK influential women through some influencers I follow on Instagram. I then got to her Instagram page and I was blown away with what she does and who she is. She is on the Dragon's den.
I've always wanted to know more about her. I really needed this. Thank you🙏
She is beautiful in and out! So inspiring! I am very inspired by her, she is amazing !! She deserves an honorary price or diploma she is truly a mastermind🥹❤️
I have started up a business recently because I want to be in control of my time. I'm that person who is never afraid to fail and I thought I wasn't doing it right. The more I fail the more I have this inner push to move forward. Thank you Emma, just listening to you gives me the courage to continue looking for ways to become successful.
You are so realistic and that's what I love most about you. You give hope to many who think they can't be good at anything just because they never completed the formal school system society has deceived us to accept for centuries.
Much love and looking forward to more informative podcasts.
Lead with KINDNESS! That is a beautiful, hoping that more managers/CEO's will take this on. You can be firm but be smart about it. There is no place at work or home for bullying and threatening behavior... My thoughts on this. But this is what stuck out to me on this podcast.
This is probably the best interview yet! She’s so inspiring and she has changed my mind set in so many ways
WOW!!! What truly powerful interview. I was sent this link and have been truly blessed with this powerful interview. Emma kept it real, being a fellow uk 🇬🇧 she was on point. From someone who is working self, changing my circumstances....pure golden nuggets dropped throughout this interview. The energy was amazing and authentic. Thank you so much, 8 pages of note taken later, I'm truly inspired and reignited to continue my goals. 🎉🙏🏾💯
This is a dope ass podcast. Enjoyed to watch her brilliance ❤😊
This interview is soooo good! The part about being selfish longer because everyone else is busy thinking of themselves, so don’t feel bad about being selfish bc no one is going to get what you want for you 💛💛💛
What a brilliant interview! She is radiating gratitude and strength!! This was such an enjoyable listen. I experienced such a positive energy and perspective shift. Truly an inspiration.
Loved this but did feel kinda sad for her kids when she said they never see her at the school gates ,and they fit around her life-but she also says you can’t have it all in life,I think you either gotta choose a hugely ambitious career or having four kids ,they grow so fast ,you will never get those years back girl ,moneys can’t buy time
Very inspirational ❤ Thank you to the both of you.
Loved this interview!
Sir,there is no doubt that your podcasts are full of learnings but when there is advertisements , it oftentimes break our concentration. Please consider this thing. And thank your for awesome podcasts ,I love this. love from India.
She's so gorgeous and inspiring! Thanks a lot!!!
This was an awesome video! Apparently, I've been living under a rock because I had never heard of Emma, lol! She is an amazing person, and the advice and wisdom she shared during your lovely conversation are priceless! Jay, you are my absolute favorite interviewer, hands down! ❤
Thank you!
The most refreshingly honest, insightful and relatable interview ever! Thank you for keeping it real with out any of the fluff! You’ve gained a new admirer ❤wishing you all the best Emma and Jay thank you for putting an amazing interview together, felt like I was with a group of close friends on a sofa joking and hashing out our challenges and the major lessons learned with out judgments ❤
Her insight into how important it is to draw our worth from our areas of responsibility is so profound.
One of those “I need to go on CZcams and see the enthusiasm of this” type podcast.
All of this resonates with my soul:
“Make a decision and move on.”
This gave me the activation boost I needed to make necessary actions.
❤️Beautiful share! Emma you literally have the best Laugh 😂😂😂😂😂
Best advice
“Make a decision and move on” That one really hit the spot!
FAVOURITE EPISODE SO FAR! I’VE LEARNED SO MUCH! Well done Emma & Jay ❤️
I could say the same!!
Fantastic! I needed this so much.
This is soooo good, never heard of her and I am hooked now. I would want to be her friend. She's so grounded. It's nice to see a business woman,wife, mother and simply dope human. Loved that she said something near and dear to my heart " I am everything/all the things"
I still love my LV reverse monogram *esluxscom* clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
I love when your collaborate with different celebrities
This made me cry because she’s the person I KNOW I will think of when I make it. Currently going thru everything she went thru while working on my business on the low. This really touched my heart ️
I felt her presence. That’s the kind of person that will change this world for better. Can’t wait to go on a little walk with my younger self! Great stuff!❤🙏🏽
Jay you are the one for this 👌
this is hands down one of the best interviews I've watched. there is something so refreshing about her perspective. she makes you feel like your dreams are attainable. life made the right person successful. we need more women who are this kind, this real, and this determined. thank you emma. I hope to cross paths with you one day as a fellow business owner building a business of legacy.
I really enjoyed this episode! Emma is so positive and it was interesting to hear her daily rituals to maintain her gratitude for life!
Love the idea of the thirds. It can definitely seem like if you’re not completely overjoyed during the entire entrepreneurial process, that maybe you’re not cut out for it. It’s reassuring to hear that yeah misery is a third of it because the feeling is real.
My favourite speaker l always admire and appreciate Jay genius.
Emma is soooooooo 100% Real, Savvy and a no nonsense person!!!! 🙏. Loved 🖤"No one's going to take a chance on me I have to take the chance on me, and then maybe someone else will be inspired to take a chance on me"!!!
Hands down one of the best episodes thus far with someone I’ve looked up to for so long.
I did not know much about Emma-outside of GA and Shark Tank-before this conversation. As a Black woman entrepreneur who has worked with Black women entrepreneurs for almost 15 years I appreciated this conversation greatly. I’d heard of 15% Pledge and appreciate Emma’s advocacy. Greta interview. This was my first time watching anything by Jay as well. Well done conversation
This interview was incredibly powerful and I LOVED it! However I do have to acknowledge some inconsistencies- at the beginning of the interview Emma said her mother always taught her “you are not better than anyone but also no one is better than you” she said based off that she’s never had imposter syndrome or doubted herself but then multiple times throughout the interview she mentions her self doubt holding her back/having a crippling fear her having a fear of what others think due to her not having a formal education. We’re all human it’s perfectly normal to not always have our confidence at 100%…
There are no words to describe how much Emma resonates. Here energy and her zest for living came through undoubtedly. Jay this guest is a much return this kind of real is priceless. Emma love light and blissings to you always!!!!!
Her points about tending to yourself, our position next to, not in competition with, others, the human tendency to project onto others, how we can criticize ourselves more than we criticize others or they criticize us, knowing the voices in your head as tools to use to your benefit...im cookin!! ❤🔥🍳 The grace and beauty and LIFE she exudes is reassuring as this is who imagine myself to be in my heart of hearts. Loooovee this conversation!
This interview is just a blessing to my ears. Being an African woman where we are taught to only have as dream being a married woman, as far as O remember, I always believed since i Was 12 years old, that I can gbe ambitious, have a career, family and it all, it just takes the right partner, a very good organisation. From the fact that Emma dropped out of school and did all of these jobs, we have here a prime example of real life challenges. I am a big advocate of going far when it comes to school as I really believe real change comes from the laws and school will most of the Time, give you that place at the table where laws are written, but never consider yourself half human because you couldn’t finish school. All is within you, you have something, that is unique, just shape it and work, remain focus, and then it is all happen. Thank you to these two for this episode.
Her attitude is the most magnetic thing about her. What a beautiful soul. Shows whats possible with good upbringing and solid values.
You guys have me smiling BIG on the other side of the screen 😇❤
