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. 🧡🧡🧡

Okay that's cool
My dividend journey began when I realized that two particular expenses in my budget were always going to go up and never go down. The two expenses were taxes and insurance. I realized that the dramatic rise in both will need some added income. So, I started buying shares paying dividends. I can now see that this will be the path I need to take to make sure those two expenses will not overtake my future income.
As a beginner, educate yourself, Learn the basics of investing and the stock market. There are many resources available online, including books, articles, and online courses. It’s a good idea to diversify your portfolio across different stocks and sectors to minimize risk. I’ve heard of people accruing over $550k during recessions and inflation, its important to do your own research.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850K.
This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? I'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation.
Angela Lynn Shilling is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Thank you for the pointer.
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❤
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.
This woman is soo inspiring 😍 I am amazed by her. This is an incredible interview and I loved every moment of it🥰
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!
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
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 ❤
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*
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
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 🎉❤
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 😍❤️
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!
Honestly I love how Jay listens and engages with his guests. Truly a talented interviewer.
Her laugh and spirit 😍. Keep kicking ass. I'm inspired!
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 😊
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.
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 ❤
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!!
This is Dynamite! Absolutely incredible. Every single word relatable & incredible 🎉
So True - Create new memories, activities, projects and moments to keep growing relationships.
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.
This was GREAT. Thank you both for this episode.
This was one of my favorites interviews on the show ❤
LETS GO ENTREPRENEURS ❤❤❤
Yesssss💯👏🏾
@@4xfun563 HECK YEAH!!!!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
Agreed 💯
@@ernestgreen254 LOVE IT! YES!!!👍
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.
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.
Great interview! Kind-Motivated-Tough = perfect formula!
Listening to this while at work😍 I love Emma so much.
Loved this one Jay!! Emma is such an inspiration and seems like such a nice genuine person. :)
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
I really like her. I found her relatable and real. I also felt her when she said, “Get me back into my Office.”
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.
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!!! 💪🏾
❤
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.
Thank you for this wonderful episode! Respect and yes .. such lovely voices ! Could hear you both all day !
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 🎉
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❤❤❤❤
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!
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 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
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...
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 .
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! 🙌🏾👏🏾💪🏾❤️
This is a dope ass podcast. Enjoyed to watch her brilliance ❤😊
such an inspiring and powerful episode! thank you both :)
So excited for this 🙏💯🧡
I've always wanted to know more about her. I really needed this. Thank you🙏
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
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 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.
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🥹❤️
❤️Beautiful share! Emma you literally have the best Laugh 😂😂😂😂😂
Best advice
“Make a decision and move on” That one really hit the spot!
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.
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. 🙌🏽
Loved this interview!
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.
Very inspirational ❤ Thank you to the both of you.
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! 🙏🏽
She's so gorgeous and inspiring! Thanks a lot!!!
I love this!! It spoke to my spirit!! Let's get it done!!!
FAVOURITE EPISODE SO FAR! I’VE LEARNED SO MUCH! Well done Emma & Jay ❤️
I could say the same!!
This woman and her husband are beyond innovative!! Her husband founded the Lux Denim Line…”Frame”!! This Fall/Winter Collection is the best they’ve done in a long time!! Wallpaper Magazine!! 🔥🔥🔥
Keep up the trailblazing work!!
I appreciate her openness about the personal sacrifices that success can entail - a reminder that success is a holistic concept.
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!
Absolutely loved the humour and liveliness of the episode, imagining how much y'all enjoyed recording this. So full of learning🙌🏾
Fantastic! I needed this so much.
Her attitude is the most magnetic thing about her. What a beautiful soul. Shows whats possible with good upbringing and solid values.
Hi Jay,
I am from Bangladesh.
It's a great platform to know deeply about our lives.
Her insight into how important it is to draw our worth from our areas of responsibility is so profound.
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.
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 💛💛💛
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
Accepting NO as their loss. Truly believing in oneself. Being grateful.❤
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. ❤
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
One of those “I need to go on TH-cam 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.
Jay you are the one for this 👌
I love her words on how women can be moms and career driven which is very inspiring and meaningful for career driven women!
My favourite speaker l always admire and appreciate Jay genius.
Great interview 🔥🔥🔥
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 love when your collaborate with different celebrities
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.
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.
You guys have me smiling BIG on the other side of the screen 😇❤
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.
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.
Loved it! Thank you 💖💫
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.
So so good! Loved the framework of “rule of 3rds” if you are challenging yourself for growth. Emma’s truth about balance being BS is so real. As a mom and entrepreneur this episode was powerful and I felt so seen. Thank you!
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!
She's been awesome on Shark Tank as well. Thank you Jay for bringing awesome guests - including those who aren't featured on podcasts as widely.
Glad you enjoyed!
The title says that anybody can make a billion-dollar industry... Well, it seems that the statement is true, but untrue at the same time. Not everybody wants to be at the center of attention 24 hours a day, in order to make a billion dollars....Some people love privacy and are much happier spending time alone or with two friends in nature. Not everybody is built in a way to feel pleasure from being on camera every day. For many people, it's losing privacy and personal peace... For others it is exciting but some people find much more happiness by observing the world quietly and reading books or listening to music, or doing various hobbies without wasting money all the time. ....It seems the billon business is only for those who have an idea about how it makes them happy, but it's not for everybody. It doesnt make everybody happy. Some people love nature and a minimalistic lifestyle. They are rich by having interesting hobbies.
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.
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 ❤
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!❤🙏🏽
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.
This is probably the best interview yet! She’s so inspiring and she has changed my mind set in so many ways
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 ️
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.
