Lessons Learned from Season 1 of the Podcast

00:00:24 - Maelisa Hall
Welcome to the final episode of season one of the My Biz Bestie podcast. I'm Melissa Hall.

00:00:28 - Amber Hawley
And I'm Amber Hawley.

00:00:30 - Maelisa Hall
And today we are going to do a little wrap up of season one and give you a hint, a little taste of what is to come in 2018 for season two.

00:00:46 - Amber Hawley
Yes. And although I'm very excited for season two, I have to say I'm a little sad that this is going to be our final episode for the season one.

00:00:55 - Maelisa Hall
I know. I know. And we were really excited about doing seasons because I feel like this will be a great compliment to other things we're doing. And like we've talked about, we each have, you know, our own businesses and multiple things going on. But it's totally like this, like, oh, we went to go record this episode and we were like, oh, no, we're not going to have another episode for a couple months.

00:01:15 - Amber Hawley
I know. And I don't want you to be too sad. We're not going to take like a Game of Thrones break or Netflix break where you have to wait a whole year. Not at all. Not at all. Not at all. Exactly. And in fact, we're only going to take a two month break and we're not completely opposed to possibly, allegedly, perhaps maybe doing a bonus episode or two.
So you might not have to go that long without us because we know you'll miss us.

00:01:43 - Maelisa Hall
Yes. So make sure you are subscribed so that you will get random bonus episodes if they so happen. Yeah. Allegedly. Yeah. And FYI, it'll be March 6th when we come back with season two, right after we have been to social media marketing world, which I am super pumped about.
So I know that we will be really like ramping up, ready to go, have tons of great information to share with you all after that.

00:02:10 - Amber Hawley
Yes, that is going to be very exciting. I cannot wait. I was just about to go woot and then I was like, wait. that feels a little dated. And then I was like, can we still say holla? Like, I feel like I don't have any, I have nothing to call out. Like normally I wouldn't think twice about those things, but all of a sudden I was like, I'm not feeling it.
Like I need a new shout out. So I guess, yeah, maybe we'll have to test them out over the next couple months. So, you know, if you're listening out there and you have a good shout out for me, please, please send it my way because that's very weird. I'm usually like full in tune with my shout out, but I'm not feeling it right now.
I'm sure it's just an in the moment thing.

00:02:47 - Maelisa Hall
You'll have one next week. Yeah, I'm sure. So today we're gonna have a shorter episode, but we just wanted to give you a little bit about what will be happening in 2018. And, you know, hopefully you have had a wonderful 2017 and are taking this opportunity the week that this launches to do some catch up, to do some reflection and enjoy all that you got done in 2017.
And this is totally off the cuff. I just thought of this right now, but I think it's important, Amber. So every year I actually do a list of all of the things I've accomplished in the year. And I think it's a lot of times we don't give ourselves credit for that, but it's a really fun thing to do.
And in our Facebook tribe that we have, our group of nine, we've shared those at different times with one another. And so it's really cool.

So if you haven't done something like that I would really encourage you to do that and keep, it's not something you have to do just once. Like you can start the list and then keep adding to it as you think of things. And it's just anything you accomplished in 2017.
And you will probably be shocked at how much you've done.

00:03:51 - Amber Hawley
Yes. And that could be good, especially for those perfectionists out there and, you know, super go getters who feel like they've never finished their to do list or anything else. I think it offers a great perspective. And I feel like last year, was it something around like trying to get 50 items?
Or am I just making that up?

00:04:10 - Maelisa Hall
No, I think you're right. Yeah, I think we either tried to get to 50 or said 50. But obviously, you know, if you can think of more, go for it.

00:04:17 - Amber Hawley
Yeah. And it was great. It was great to see what the other women had posted and, you know, to see all that they had accomplished in the year. And I remember, and I will be honest, like I did not actually write out my list. I really wanted to, but this was my ADHD moment.
And I did start to mentally do it though. And even then I was really surprised, but I think I missed out on the value of actually having it written down.

00:04:43 - Maelisa Hall
Yes. So I will challenge you to do that this year. Yeah. And I will do it. So I'll make it posted to our Facebook page when you make it happen so that we all, I mean, not the list itself, but I was like, I was like, Oh, I don't know about that.

00:04:57 - Amber Hawley
I would really have to edit it then. But I think I will. I will definitely post it to our private mavens group because like I said, I really did see the value. And even like when I was going through that mental list, but I will take the time out and actually do that.
And I'll be aided because I'm actually taking time. the 22nd. I'm leaving on the 22nd of December and taking off until I think it's like January 2nd. So I'm giving myself a proper break from work.

00:05:28 - Maelisa Hall
I know.

00:05:29 - Amber Hawley
Which is really exciting. It's really exciting.

00:05:31 - Maelisa Hall
I'm totally going to have withdrawals.

00:05:33 - Amber Hawley
You know that, right? Well, you can still talk to me. I know. I'm sure we'll have occasional brainstorming sessions because hello. I think all the best does come when you're in that space of you know, unstructuredness and like, you know, you're not in that hustle mode.
So I think so much more happens. I will say, though, I already did respond yes to a meetup that's happening in that time.

00:05:57 - Maelisa Hall
You did not. I did.

00:05:59 - Amber Hawley
But I will give myself permission not to go if I feel that's necessary. But we will definitely be here. We'll be back in the area. And it's happening on December 30th. So I said, oh my gosh, that looks awesome. But I think that's different. I think that's different than coming in and seeing clients and doing work.
You know, like I feel like it's different.

00:06:20 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah, it is. Especially if, you know, if it's a meetup of people that you really enjoy being with.

00:06:25 - Amber Hawley
Well, I don't know yet, but I think I will. I think it'll be. Oh, it's new.

00:06:29 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah, yeah.

00:06:29 - Amber Hawley
It's a new meetup. So I did. That's why it's intriguing. And I think there's going to be some amazing people there. So I'm excited. But again, I'm going to give myself permission to not go too. If it comes to the point of I'm in like full, you know, family kickback mode, then I'm going to stay in full family kickback mode.
That's okay too.

00:06:47 - Maelisa Hall
I like it. I like it. Yeah. I am planning to take off the week in between Christmas and New Year's. And I am trying to commit to actually taking that whole week off. Yeah.

00:06:59 - Amber Hawley
That's essentially...

00:07:00 - Maelisa Hall
It's hard to do.

00:07:01 - Amber Hawley
It is. And that's essentially what I'm doing, but I'm adding a little bit on each end, right? So to kind of maximize it. And every... It just seems like it never happens, but I really need it. I'm looking forward to it, the downtime, and then starting 2018 with a bang.
So I think that'll be a really good thing. And it'll be nice to feel... I just really want to feel like I've gotten all the major things off my plate before I go. So that's kind of... Yeah.

00:07:26 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah. Yeah, which is hard to, I mean, you never have everything off your plate, right? Like not just you, but all of us, you know? But it is nice. As we're talking, I'm thinking of hearing Gary Vee, Gary Vaynerchuk, talk about how he is so excited Monday morning.
to wake up and go back to work after taking the weekend off, you know? And it's so funny because I think about like, yeah, I can take a weekend off and I can take a few days off and really enjoy going away and spending time with my family and stuff like that.
But then after a few days, especially since I think I'm going to be at home this year and not like, you know, visiting someone somewhere else, then the itch, I start to get the itch again where I'm like, oh, let me go check my stats on this or, oh, let me go.
Yeah. write something up. So I'll try to be good and actually have a break so that I can have abundant creative energy when I come back in 2018.

00:08:18 - Amber Hawley
Nice. I don't think I'll have that issue. That is not something I ever struggle with. It's like, ah, let me go do some more. Well, that's not true. I used to struggle with it, I think, but now I just feel like my bandwidth is too thin and it's like, eh, meh.
My struggle is going to be whether or not I allow myself to continue sorting and purging my house, even though I feel like how is it possible that there's still stuff to do, but I have three children. Oh my gosh. And after Christmas, you're going to have way more stuff.
I know, but that's why I do the pre-purge, you know, to hopefully offset that. But you do sometimes have to reorganize things based on size of toys and stuff like that. So we'll see. But I really do hope to be I don't know. I haven't decided if I'm going to allow myself to do that or if I just give myself permission to take the whole time off because I already wrote down in my little list of like, oh, I could organize the shed or I could go through and, you know, organize and purge Christmas ornaments and stuff like ridiculous stuff that makes me so happy and my little jokingly OCD brain, although maybe not so jokingly.

00:09:23 - Maelisa Hall
Well, how about you give yourself permission not to do it, but then if you really want to, you can.

00:09:28 - Amber Hawley
Yeah, but I'll try to play that trick on myself, you know. I'll have to see where I'm at because in my fantasy, the next two weekends, somehow I'm going to get a lot of that stuff done too. But we do have like Christmas parties and stuff coming up. So I don't know.
But I think, yeah, maybe I'll try to do what you suggest. That's a good idea because I would like to give myself a full break and just being chill and not feeling pressure and enjoy the kids and my husband and the fam. But I do love to be productive.
Yeah. And I love to just check things off and feel like everything, you know, looks good and feels good. And I don't know.

00:10:05 - Maelisa Hall
I think it's about like what is less stressful, right? Because sometimes it's really stressful to sit there when something's not done. And sometimes and nobody can really like make that decision for you. and it really depends on what it is.

00:10:18 - Amber Hawley
In all honesty, I'm very all or nothing. So it's the paradox of being a very like go, go, go person is I can sit and spend an entire day watching Netflix and ordering in food and not leaving my pajamas. Like I'm really good at that. So I can do that like a baller.
And also I can also be in that space where, yeah, it's like okay, let's go, go, go. Let's get this stuff done or let's go somewhere. Let's do something, you know, that kind of stuff. So, but I feel a little inspired right now because yesterday we finished all of our decorating, which I'd hoped would happen the week before, but we honestly were so tired after Thanksgiving.
We were just exhausted. And so, yeah, cause we're actually recording this. It's a few weeks before Christmas still. So even though you're listening to this the day after Christmas, um, I will be in that. We will both be on that break and we will see.

But it does feel so good to get everything clean and yeah, like feeling like you don't live in a shit show.

00:11:15 - Maelisa Hall
I know. I do really like having everything super organized and cleaned up. And even though it's not always like that, but it feels good.

00:11:24 - Amber Hawley
I enjoy being in that environment.

00:11:26 - Maelisa Hall
Yes.

00:11:27 - Amber Hawley
Awesome.

00:11:28 - Maelisa Hall
All right. So hopefully you are all taking some kind of break or took a break. If you're listening to this later, I do think it's valuable to plan that time. And I know I don't partly because I do like Gary Vee says, like, I really do love doing my work and doing this stuff.
And, you know, I'm not going to apologize for that. I think it's a great thing, but we've all got to take a break now and then.

00:11:50 - Amber Hawley
So Melissa, thinking back on our season one of the My Biz Bestie podcast, um, What is something that either was like a learning lesson or a favorite moment or something that stood out for you?

00:12:04 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah, I think what stood out for me the most was when we did our episode about the different ways that you can go on a retreat or do like improve your productivity. And I couldn't believe all the different things we had done already. I mean, we were talking about all these different ideas and I was like, oh, yeah, we did this one.
You did that one. I did this one. So it was kind of nice to look back and realize like, wow, we have put a lot of effort. And not only that, but then to look back on the results I've seen from those different retreats and the things that have happened as a result of that, knowing whether it was a relationship that was formed or not.
a product that I ended up selling or a sales page I created or whatever it was, it really, really did have a big impact.

And I think it can be easy to get caught up in some of these trips. And especially since we have done a lot of traveling recently and not focus on what are the results of those, especially since sometimes you don't see that until a few months down the line.
So it was really cool to be like, yeah, no, that was a really awesome thing that we did. And I'm still... benefiting from business retreat we did over a year ago.

00:13:19 - Amber Hawley
Which one? Are you talking about the one in Tahoe?

00:13:21 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, really the one in Vegas too, because I created a big product that I sell there. But also in Tahoe, I did a bunch of my email sequence stuff. And so there have been so many things I've done for my business that I needed that time to get away and I needed that extended period of time to work on.
And there have been things where because I spent that amount of time, I haven't had to go back and make major changes to it. And there are things that have, you know, are still serving me over a year later. That's great. Oh, I love that. That's a good one.

00:13:53 - Amber Hawley
Yeah, it really was amazing to realize, yeah, how much we have done in, you know, under two years that there has been a lot of things and a lot of fun and a lot of adventure and a lot of meeting new people. But yeah, it's been very, very good for our businesses.
So what about you? Yeah, if I think about, for me, I mean, there are quite a few moments, like there were a lot of good things, but I think what probably for me stands out the most is kind of like a learning lesson in that I... and this kind of surprises people when I start to talk about it a little bit, but I was kind of petrified of putting myself out there in a way.
There's part of me that's always feeling like things will scare me. Like I don't particularly love public speaking, but I do it because like, I think it's important.

And I think I see the value in it. Although I will say when we did our talk in when we were in Atlanta, that it was wonderful. And I realized some of it was the subject matter, because I was finally doing something fun and light. So that was good. But at the same time, so when I'm scared of things, I'm not going to let that be a barrier for me is I guess what I'm trying to say.
But I had been so that was a little shocking. Because I have had this intention of launching an online business for a very long time, I actually started work on it in January of 2016. And I got everything to like 60% done. And then just kind of let it drag.
And I kept exploring like what was going on. And there were a few things that contributed to it. And some of it was just health stuff and insomnia. But the reality was I was petrified. I was really worried about how people would receive it and what the response would be.

And I mean, you only have to look at any article on the internet to see there are a lot of haters out there and a lot of people giving negative feedback. And so that was a little like, do I really want to put myself in that space? Because I know as a therapist, I do really good work and I feel very confident about what happens in the room with my clients.
But it's very different when you're putting yourself out there in a way where there isn't that reciprocation or that ability to kind of read the room and get the feedback. So yeah. For me, doing this podcast has been great because one, I felt that I had support in this.
It wasn't just me. But now that we've done it, I really feel like it's taken away that fear for me. Now that I won't have those moments and there's going to be haters and I'm going to, you know, there's going to be those things where I'm like, oh gosh, I'm putting myself out there.
But I feel so much more comfortable.

Part of that has been because we've just gotten such overwhelming positive response from people. And it's, you know, people are finding it very helpful. And I love when you know, we get these messages pretty much every week. We've been getting messages from people about how a particular episode impacted them or just the value that they're finding in the information we're providing.
And so that's awesome. And it feels like, I mean, this is what we do as therapists is we like to be of service. So that feels amazing. But it's also given me, I think, the confidence to know that, you know, I can put myself out there and there are people out there who are going to be interested in what we have to offer.
And even though I could theoretically know that before, I feel much more Confident in it?

00:17:01 - Maelisa Hall
So for me, that's been a huge piece, yeah, and it's been so much easier doing something like this with someone else. Right? Because I know we've both talked about how this podcast, like, if we were each doing our own individual podcasts, it wouldn't have happened when it did so.
So it was being there for one another and sort of relying on one another that pushed each of us to go the extra mile and get it done when there were a lot of barriers to getting it done at the time we were trying to do it.

00:17:32 - Amber Hawley
Yeah. And that's life, right? There's always something. And I think that that was the thing with my individual endeavor. I would bump up against those things, but because it was just me, then it was like, ugh, and then I'd feel defeated and I would kind of stop.
And so it was like, you know, it just didn't feel like the momentum was there. But when you have somebody else, it's like, you know, we're here. We both pick up and take on different things and kind of move things forward. And I think that's great. It definitely highlights that one.
I need a permanent assistant because then I could just delegate that to somebody. But also I do think it's about the confidence piece. And I say like some people would be surprised by that because I am a very confident person. But when you're doing things outside your comfort zone, it's still very unnerving.
And I had underestimated how much that had been a part of why I slowed down and why I hadn't launched.

So I feel really good about 2018 and moving forward with those endeavors because I'm very excited about them. So yeah, for me, it was just really gaining the confidence.

00:18:35 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah, I love it. It's so cool. And it's kind of what in our first BizBestie interview episode, what Tiffany talked about with, you know, she never would have put on a live event if it weren't for having her biz bestie and that kind of helped push her and past a lot of things that would have been barriers.
And yeah, it's been wonderful to be able like to support one another through this too. Like if one of us is feeling kind of weird about something we can, you know, you have someone to talk to about it and, and then you can decide like, Oh, okay. Is this just something that I need to push through or some barrier I have, or is this like a legit concern?
Yeah.

00:19:12 - Amber Hawley
You know? Yeah. And I think, you know, some of the confidence piece was also, you know, it's like putting yourself out there wearing the feedback, but it's also like, it was a little bit of perfectionism. Right. And so the fear of like, I always say you're, it's not going to be perfect.
And yet I secretly hope that it will be. And that is not the case. And I don't feel like we did our podcast perfectly or anything like that. Not that it wasn't good. It was still very good. But that was awesome for me to experience that people can still have a very positive response and get a lot of value out of it.
And it doesn't need to be perfect. And it won't, especially the way we approach it. We like to be very organic, go with the flow. And I mean, what is perfect anyway, right? But that I think was the piece of it is just being able to let go and to let Not like settling, not like, oh, it's good enough.

But like, I can be proud of this, you know, even if I can see room for improvement. And that doesn't mean I can't try that. But it was more like, I feel like it's less striving, just being okay with it.

00:20:14 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah, and I think appreciating it too. And it has been amazing to hear from so many people. Like we've had people share episodes in a Facebook group or we've had people reach out to us on Facebook Messenger or send us emails. And even some of the presentations we did at the conference and things like that, It's been so encouraging to hear the feedback from people and to know that we started this podcast because we felt like there was a great need to talk about this topic and to provide support and help other female entrepreneurs find their support system.
And the more we have talked about it and put ourselves out there, the more positive response we've gotten. Yes.

00:20:56 - Amber Hawley
And that's, you know, there's something about that. You show up authentically and people respond to it. So that to me is huge. And that's way better than having said the perfect thing or, you know, remembering all the things.

00:21:09 - Maelisa Hall
Yes. And so thank you if you are one of those people who have sent us a message in any form or have given us feedback in person, because it really did mean a lot to us.

00:21:18 - Amber Hawley
Absolutely. Like, so valuable to hear that. And it just, yeah, made me feel great and feel like we're on the right path for this and helping people and Like I said, that's kind of what our vocation is. So it just feels great to know that we're helping people in a different way.
Thank you.

00:21:36 - Maelisa Hall
So one of the things that we definitely want to do in 2018 is more BizBestie interviews. We already have a few of those lined up. And we're really excited to hear from different people who have a different kind of structure. Maybe they are more structured than we are or, you know, have these different ways of communicating because I think the more ideas you can get, it's really helpful.
And I think it's encouraging to see. So we are excited. Super excited about that. Maybe even a Biz Bro interview.

00:22:06 - Amber Hawley
I was going to say, we have some Biz Bro stuff. And we were actually being interviewed on someone else's podcast and they started talking about their Biz Bro relationship. And it was extremely different in how they structured it.

00:22:18 - Maelisa Hall
And I loved it.

00:22:18 - Amber Hawley
It was awesome. So maybe he'll be sharing that with us on our podcast too. So yeah, definitely some Biz Bestie interviews. We want to do those once a month again to give you that you know, fly on the wall perspective of different ways of approaching this and how to utilize it and the kind of tools to facilitate it and all that jazz.

00:22:38 - Maelisa Hall
Yep. And then we're going to do things like talk about the four tendencies from Gretchen Rubin. which I think you know more about than I do, but I'm really excited to hear about that because I know we talked a lot about the Myers-Briggs in season one and that's never going to end people because we both love it.
And it's amazing.

00:22:57 - Amber Hawley
But we do have other things. Yeah, we want to hit on other things that other parts of personality or ways of looking at the things that motivate us. And so the four tendencies are about how we're motivated. And then also we probably will touch on like the Enneagram and a few other things you know, a few other concepts or theoretical ways of looking at things to see who would be a good fit for you.
We're trying to shorten the learning curve here is really what we're trying to do.

00:23:22 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah. And we, like Amber mentioned, I think on another episode, we will be on our week-long GSD retreat that we do with our own tribe during season two. And so we will definitely be talking more about that and kind of going into detail about how we structure that retreat since it is A different thing from the other ones that we've discussed in the previous episode where we go into how you can plan a weekend retreat to boost your productivity.

00:23:49 - Amber Hawley
Yes. And I am going to be curious to see how this one goes because this time we are going to be staying on the premises of the spa. And in fact, it's North America's largest spa. So I'm curious to see how much is actually going to get done.

00:24:04 - Maelisa Hall
It looks beautiful. It looks like a very inspirational setting. Yes. for us to perhaps write a book.

00:24:13 - Amber Hawley
We've already started that process, but we are definitely going to be, it'll be a great place to finish up the writing and doing that kind of thing. So you're right. That's a good thing, but it does look so beautiful. I am so excited about it. And then, you know, I think we'll have done a few more events and we'll, you know, be doing more interviews.
And actually we have some exciting, like expert interviews lined up for next year. Um, That will be people like really well-known people talking about their expertise and how they help people find that support system in the many different facets. So I'm really excited about those interviews.

00:24:51 - Maelisa Hall
Yes, I am too. And I'm also excited about our own retreat that we want to put together. Yes. A GSD retreat where you can come and GSD yourself. with us. You get to GSD with the pros.

00:25:08 - Amber Hawley
And the most beautiful part is like you just show up. And I think that that's so nice. And especially to experience it, you know, for the first time and know that your only obligation is to bring the work or the projects or the thing that you want to accomplish and then have a pre-vetted group of awesome women at the same level, at the same, you getting stuff done.
And we are very, very excited about that. It's going to be a VIP. And I mean that in a way of like, you're going to be the VIPs and we're going to make sure that it's one of the most supportive, but also lavish because I can be a little bougie and I like nice things.
So good food, good support, like all the good things to make you feel fully pampered and supported and walking out of there having got a lot of shit done.

Most importantly.

00:26:03 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah. And I'm really excited because our role will be to hang out and help people get stuff done. So not that we would be distracting you, but it is really nice, honestly, but it is really nice to have someone where sometimes when you're on these GSD retreats, there might be somebody whose feedback you want, but you know that they're working on something.
And so you might have to hang back and wait to talk to them about something. And you don't want to interrupt their time. And so our role would purely be to be there as a support and be that person where you can ask feedback or brainstorm or even help deal with a tech issue.
Who knows?

00:26:44 - Amber Hawley
But whatever it is that you need. Yes. Yes. And so we'll be your BizBestie. And who knows, maybe out of these amazing women that will hopefully join us, you might find your own BizBestie or add another one to your mix. So we're very excited about that.

00:26:59 - Maelisa Hall
Yes. So pencil that into your calendar at some point in 2018.

00:27:03 - Amber Hawley
Yes. In the yearly calendar, just on the top, just write BizBestie Retreat. In season two, we will have more details about that. But right now we have a sign up page on our website that can just give us your information to say you're interested. And then when we have more details and more information for you, we will send that out.

00:27:24 - Maelisa Hall
Yep. So that's just the homepage of our website, mybizbestie.com.

00:27:27 - Amber Hawley
So yes, lots of amazing things for next year. Trying to help you know, all the female biz owners and entrepreneurs out there find their business support system. And we'll be going into more information about how to make sure you're getting the most out of your biz bestie relationship and, you know, what to do when it goes astray.
So.

00:27:49 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah, we'll be talking about, you know, that time when Amber did something crazy.

00:27:53 - Amber Hawley
No, I'm just kidding. That never happens ever.

00:27:58 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah, but we will still be around. So make sure that you are subscribed so you maybe potentially hear a bonus episode here or there before March. And we'll still be on our Facebook page and are always welcome if you want to hit us up on the website. So we'll still be around, but you may not hear from us for a few weeks.

00:28:16 - Amber Hawley
Yes, we'll be taking that hiatus to get a bunch of interviews done and more episodes in the bank. And so we're ready to go. But we are going to miss... Talking to each other on in this format, anyway, every week. It's been so wonderful. And we would love to hear if there's anything that you think would be an awesome topic or something you want to hear about, we'd love to hear about that.
And you know, it's only two months away. I do hope. If you're somebody that's saying to yourself, Hey, you know, I'm really feeling that isolation in business, or I'm not feeling as connected. That you go back, listen to the episodes and try to implement just one thing.
Because we did talk about a lot of different strategies over the season and just try to figure out, is there one thing? Is there a meetup, an in-person networking?

Is there an online Facebook group or something where you can join and participate and try to start that process and building up that network? Because it does take time.

00:29:13 - Maelisa Hall
Yeah. Or maybe it's, you know, you already have that and it's just taking that next step and sending someone an email or a Facebook message. to actually meet up over Zoom or Skype or in person or something.

00:29:25 - Amber Hawley
Or saying, hey, let's spend the weekend together in that hotel at that event. Hey, it worked for us. That's right.

00:29:33 - Maelisa Hall
I know. So and especially if you will be at Social Media Marketing World, we will be there. And like we said, that'll be the week before season two airs, March 6th. So we'd love to see you there. Definitely hit us up if you're going to be there so that we can meet up with you.

00:29:51 - Amber Hawley
Absolutely. And we look forward to 2018. We hope that, you know, again, this will be the day after Christmas, I guess, that this airs. So we hope you had a wonderful holiday and you get yourself all set up for an amazing 2018. And we would love to be a part of that with you.
And so we'll see you in March. See you then.
