 I'm here. I'm live. Can you hear me? Can you hear me? Hello? I think it's working. Oh, yeah, it's working. Okay. Let's wait till somebody comes on and I'll know for sure. Yeah, yeah, it's working. It's working. Obviously, I haven't gotten through my water today. Not doing good. Hmm. Hello, hello. How is everyone? I am finishing my day and thought I would come on here because every day I keep meaning to and then I don't and I always come at the middle of the day. And so I thought I need to go on the end of the day. Different people, different times, easier, you know. Okay, what do you guys think of glasses? Do we like glasses? I've told you my funny glass story, so I probably won't say it. Why is my hair? Why is it like opposite? Like I came to fix anything. I'm good. How are you guys? Oh, gosh, my hair needs to be done. Oh, what the heck? It's like flipped. Okay, I just need to like feel my hair and just do it myself. Okay, there we go. They suit me, huh? I don't know. Depends on them. It's like I only got them for the blue light. Okay, so I'll just tell you the story really quickly again. So I got a brand deal with Oscar Wiley and they were like, we're going to give you regular glasses and sunglasses, but I really just wanted the sunglasses. So I was like, I don't think I need glasses. So they paid for me to go get them checked out. Oh my God. All right, I'll get them checked out. It's been a long time. And yeah, he basically said your eyes are fine. And I'm like, but I really need glasses. I mean, can you just give me like glasses that would suit me, but like that has the blue light in it? Oh, because I'm always on my computer. And so that's what this is. Really expensive blue light glasses. That's what this is. I am living in Wellington, New Zealand, Wellington, New Zealand. How's everyone? How was your day? Mine was great. Great. Another great day. Can you say that about your job? Can you say that it's a great day about your job? Because I love it. I mean, I love my businesses. I do like side contracts. I never like those as much because they feel like work. Doing stuff for other people. Do I offer services to move to New Zealand to the US? And so let me talk about that because I just had my live stream. I do a monthly live stream with my community that I help move here. So yes, I do. It's in the description. You're going to want to join that. It's actually filling up so fast. I might have to turn it off. I don't know what's in the water these days or in the air, but like everybody's moving here. And so I'm getting pouring in every day. And I'm like, it's great. It's great. But I'm only going to run a large enough community that I feel like I can handle that. It's just me. And you know, I don't want to give like bad service. So yeah, I have a community. We had a live Q&A today. I gave away something. Should I show you? No, I'm not going to show you because for the community, I told them it was just for them. And it's so great. So we do live Q&As. I have like 50, I don't know how many, training videos of everything that you need to know about moving here. Again, you all set up to live life here, thrive here. I have a whole cultural section when you learn about how to function at work in the work culture. The Maori culture, I had one of the tribe leaders come and give us a whole training for you. What else do we have in there? How to get a bank account? How to land a job? How do everything? How to do sports? How to get kids in school? How to get housing? All of that, all in there. And then, so then you have access to everybody that's in there. And so people meet each other and they're like, there's a couple nurses that we're talking today and they're like, well, who are you working with? What are you doing? And they could answer each other's questions. It was great. It's a real community. But I'm not going to let it get too big. That's my point. And then you have that, you have access to me. You can put questions in there anytime and I will respond generally right away within 24 hours, unless I'm away. And yeah, these are my people. My community is my people. So I love them. And you can come and go. It's dirt cheap. Can I just say that I am so nice to you guys? Like when I look at what other people charge, the product that I have is very niche, but also nobody else has it. You don't have another choice. So in the marketing business world, that means I should be charging a lot, but I'm not going to because nobody needs that. You're trying to move here, whatever. I need to make a little money to make it worth my time, but nothing more than that. So it's dirt cheap. You can come in, it's $39 a month. You can leave whenever you want. No, there's not jail. Like you don't have to commit to anything. You just come and go as it's helpful to you because some people like they try to move here and then they realize they don't want to or it doesn't work out or they, you know, there's a huge family emergency. So that's what it is. Which part of Wellington do I live in? I live in Lower Hutt and I've pretty much lived here the whole eight years that I've lived in New Zealand, which I love it. So yeah, go ahead and post questions in the chat if you have questions. Otherwise, you know, it's easy for me to just keep talking. Just keep talking. So yeah, so that's my community. If you are thinking about moving to New Zealand, I have a free 50 minute, is it 50 minute? Yeah, 50 minute, free 50 minute like master class or just like a recording that I just went through all of your first steps for you. So you don't even need to work with me if you don't want. It's free. This is what you need to do because it was just like so many people just have all the same questions. And so like here you go. This is where you need to go. And then this is how you get your visa and everything's in there. So start with the free master class. It's just like is in the description. So many people moving here from the, yeah, so many people moving here. I don't know if it's because it's election year. I don't know if it's because I really, what I really think it is, I really think it is like in July, immigration changed. And there's a lot more pathways and a lot easier for people to come here, especially Americans. It's very hard for Americans to come here. And now there's a lot more options for them. It's a little bit more of a commitment like you come here and you actually have to stay for two years and then some of them are you have to stay for five years. So it's a little bit different, but you can get here. That's the point. And I mean, obviously I'm moving mostly people that are on the green list. So those are, you know, doctors, teachers, nurses, construction, IT always. So there's that. Yeah. What's my favorite food? How does someone pick a favorite food? So like what would be a food that I can't live without? Well, I can't live without coffee, but that's not food. Yeah, too many choices. Types of food, my probably my favorite type of food is Mexican food. So I'm suffering, you guys, I'm suffering here in New Zealand. It's not very good. I have to make it myself, which is fine, but I love a lot of things. I have some of my American cookbook. So I wrote American cookbook that has New Zealand. It's like taking the best American recipes using New Zealand ingredients. And so I have a bunch of those, if you want those, just can you just email me and I can get you a copy? They're not expensive, 25 bucks shipped anywhere in the world. So I'm looking to get rid of them and I have some more copies if you want one. I am a new, I'm not a New Zealand citizen. Sorry, I thought I said U.S. I've applied for citizenship. So we'll see. It's been a year and I've heard nothing. I followed up and they said, haven't even looked at it. But my business partner here applied and in two months was approved. So that's annoying. So how many people are moving so many, so many, you know, not everybody finds me, obviously, but a lot of them do. So there's no picking favorite place in New Zealand. I mean, this is what I tell people are like, where should I move? What should I do? You know, and I tell people like, here's the thing with New Zealand. I don't think you're really going to be disappointed with any of it. Maybe not Hamilton, but they do have nice gardens. Like I don't think you're going to be disappointed with anywhere in New Zealand. So that's what I say. It all depends what you like. Are you country? Are you city? I would die in the country and I would die in a small town. Although I did say that and I helped somebody move here. And she reached out to me and she's like, the hell is this place and where did I move to? Because she moved from Southern US and yeah, don't go to Auckland. Not a big fan, but it's not, it's for some people. And I was like, I'm like, where did you move to? Why are you freaking out? Bulls. She moved to Bulls. Bulls is like this teeny little town that everybody stops at on their way to actually somewhere. And so I was like, you got to get out of Bulls. So she moved to Palmerston North and I haven't heard from her. So I think she's doing good. Ooh, those are making me dizzy. Sorry. Yeah, she moved there. I remember. So she married somebody here and like maybe they could only find a place. They're waiting for their place in Palmy. So they were just, it was temporary, but when you've just done that huge move from your home country to a new place and you don't love where you've landed, that's hard mentally. So we talked. She's okay. I know what I do on my tiny date. I had a garage sale trying to get rid of some things. I did really well. Sold a lot. Well, my husband went like hiking and my daughter was out gone. And so it was just me and my son. I'm like, let's sell some things. Let's sell these babies. And I did. It was good. What'd you do? It was a beautiful day, but you know, I've been traveling so much. I'm not going anywhere. I'm done seeing things. I'm done doing things. I just want to get organized. Do you know how you get in that mode or like I just want to get organized in my life and in my house and get it going. None of this constant running around. So that's what I did. It's always weird to have like a holiday on a Tuesday, but I kept my kids home from school on Monday. Cause why the hell would you go to school on Monday and then have Tuesday off? Like what's wrong with you people? So I don't know. There has to be a reason why they do that here. And I don't know what it is. So there's that. Okay. The other thing I want to talk about is any questions you have, go ahead. So I just want to say another thing that I did today is I've had these. Okay. So I put, so I don't know if you know this, but I own a digital marketing company and I have lots of clients. So I basically coach people. And let me just tell you a little bit about my philosophy if you're interested. Hold on. Social workers trying to move to New Zealand from the U S. Okay. That's a good question. Someone asked if I have ever assisted social workers. I think so. I mean, I've talked, yeah, I mean, I've had clients like that and have they actually moved here? That's a good question. Have they actually moved here? Like I have so many that I'm starting to lose track. My goal was to have like this whole database of people and like all my notes. And do you think I ever did that? No, I'll jot it down in this disorganized mess. So that's what I'm saying. I'm trying to get organized. Okay. So I own a digital marketing company. I just want to tell you about this. This is what happened this week. So I love it. I have clients that I coach. And the reason why I coach is because I don't think that you can put digital marketing like in a course, you can put concepts, but no one is growing their business from concepts. And you can't put actual tactics somewhere because they change on the daily. So as soon as I created it, it's outdated. So then I'm like, okay, so I just need to coach people so that I can just tell them what to do, when it makes sense and train them up, whatever. Okay. So I've been doing that. And I ended most of my contracts before Christmas. So and so I'm just trying some new things that I would I'm just like reevaluating like, what do I really like doing? And I really like doing strategy. So I've been working with some clients and then I put out like 20, what did I put $20? You have $20 one on one with me for 30 minutes. And we're going to work out your marketing strategy. So, you know, it's almost sold out. If you want one, just message me because there's not many left. And I'm not going to keep doing it for $20. So, but I just love it. And I'm meeting so many cool business owners. It's so much fun. And we just work out their strategy. And it's so funny because I'm talking to him for 30 minutes, but I can't get off the phone. I'm so excited. I have so much more to tell you. And I love it. So I'm also testing it to see, like, make sure that I love doing this because I think I'm going to love doing this. And, you know, I just wanted to kind of get the reps in and make sure that I love it before I create a whole product suite around it. So that's going good. So if you're looking for that, I can help you. It's great. And like, let me tell you, this guy that I met with today or yesterday, he was like, I'm sorry, he was start launching a business. And I basically was like, red flag, red flag, red flag. This is what you need to do. Like, this is like before he's even created his product, but he's, I mean, it's in production. And I say, it's not going to work. It's not going to work. And he was like, I think you just like literally saved me. So meeting with me, marketing strategy, it's more than that. It's like, let's just make sure that your business is set up right anyway. Okay, so just message me if you want any of that. Do I have pets? No, I have children. I don't have pets. If Trump wins the election, do you think people will move here 100% the last time that the first time he won or whatever, he, it was a huge onslaught coming here. I wasn't doing the consulting that I was doing because I was actually in the US, but I heard it was big because I work with a lot of immigration companies. And they're like, Oh, if Trump wins, we are in the money, we're going to have to hire people because there's so much demand. I think there is like, I think there is so, what was it? So much demand. No, it was Canada. So much demand in Canada that the immigration site like broke down so many clicks. So funny. So I mean, that didn't happen here. I mean, obviously Canada is a lot closer and probably a lot easier, but what do you do? It's cold there. Who wants to go to Canada? I mean, I want to go to Banff and we were planning on going this summer and I don't think we can make it happen. It's so expensive. I have too many kids and not enough money. So there we go. My kids go to school in Laura Hut. And they don't, it's okay. They don't, they're like, it's okay. You know, I mean, what kid likes school, I guess, right? All right. What other questions you have? I can't stay on too much longer. I'm getting tired. Oh, I'm thirsty. Sorry, I got to go through these. I know why she moved to Bulls, right? Why? Let me think. I feel like there was other stories that I wanted to tell you. And of course, my mind is blank. You should see my to-do list. Here it is. So many things. And a lot is crossed off, but I have a lot more to add here. I know this isn't the updated one. That's the old one. So I have to be on my computer all day. So this is why my lists are on paper, because I need to be able to do something else. We're launching our new game adventure track next month and it should be shipped. It's exciting. I will tell you more about that. adventuretreklife.com. If you want to check it out, adventuretreklife.com. Here, I can put it in here. You can see I posted a video of what the game is like. It's going good. I have a lot of interest. But, you know, just because you have an amazing product doesn't mean it's going to sell. So we'll see. I think call them today. Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun. Oh, I got that done. Guys, I can cross this off. Guys, guys, guys, guys, girls, guys, guys and girls. Can I say that? I don't even know what I can say. Here we go. Amazon insurance, done. None of this is done. It marks, no. Nothing else I can cross off. Okay, I love crossing things off a list to the point where I will add it to the list and then cross it off if I forgot. Anybody else do that? Anybody else? Or am I crazy? I just want to be able to cross. Yeah, and I have a lot to add to this. I'm already disorganized. I came back from holiday. I'm going to get organized. I'm already disorganized. Too much, too much, too much. Anyway, what else was I going to say? Okay, so get the cookbook you guys. I just have some left. I don't know how many. I have to count them. But I have, you know, like a box with some in it. I want to get rid of it. Yeah, so my membership, dare to move membership is filling up. So get in there. It's great. People are great. Great conversations. I'm in there chatting every day, whatever questions you have as you're going, should I bring this? Should I not bring this? I'm having a mental breakdown. I'm freaking out. Should I even move all this? We deal with all of it. So cute. I had a client so people can meet one on one with me as well. And I had a lot of those this week too. I mean, everybody's crazy. I think everybody's moving. Anyway, he was so cute. He was one of my best. I just such a cool individual. Sometimes when you meet really kind of special people, you kind of feel it, you know, and he was very, very cool. But he kept talking with disclaimers, which I just forgot about America because America is so like touchy, like you can't say anything. And so he just kept saying, I hope this is not too personal. I hope it's okay if I ask you this, like, it's all good. You paid for this time to talk to me. You can ask me whatever you want. I'm going to tell you my God's honest truth. I will tell you if New Zealand is not for you, because I can normally tell in the first five minutes. And I have told people that not many. And some still didn't listen to me. And they came. And that's fine. You don't have to listen to me. I mean, you're a grown adult. You can make your own decision. And then they ended up not liking it and left. Do I say I told you so? No, because I'm mature. So yeah. So I will tell you the truth. And then one guy was like, I'm like, you should definitely not come here. And everything about you, the way that you're talking, your aggressiveness, your salesmanliness, like it's not going to work. I literally said that. I said that to him. And he was like, he kind of was caught off guard. And I'm like, I'm only telling you this not to be mean, but to be actually ultimately helpful. And then he wrote me a Google review. And he said, I think this lady just saved me a lot of money. And I did. It's not for everyone. So I get a lot of complaints on my channels from New Zealanders saying, I wish you wouldn't try to get everybody to come here. Don't tell everybody to come here. First of all, a couple of things. It's not easy to get here. Me telling them does not mean that they can get here. Number two, you do want me to weed them out. You do. You do want me to weed them out. Okay, I will tell them if they shouldn't come. I can tell them I'm not just, I'm not, I'm not barely making any money doing this. I'm not doing it for that. I'm here to, I'm here to offer service because it's something I wish I had. That's why. Okay, is there anything of value for the New Zealand that you could take back to the US and teach? No, teach is a fine word. I understand what you're saying. Gosh, so many things. So yeah, when I go back to the States, because I go every year to visit family because I need to maintain relationships and it's expensive, but whatever, keep encouraging good people to come here. I will, Phil. I will. Okay, so when I go back to the States and I make videos, I just do like, you know, short form videos. It's so easy because I'm saying this would never happen in New Zealand or like, yeah, it would be really easy for me to talk to Americans about the fact that this isn't the greatest place on earth. And here's why. It's not that it's not great. America is great in a lot of ways, but you talk as if nobody else is good. Nobody else's ways of doing things are good. And in fact, to the extreme, where you're like afraid of the way other people do things, like we can't have like socialized healthcare or we can't know, but let's charge to the point where people are going bankrupt daily just to go to the doctor. Like that's, and you're like, you don't see it and you don't realize that nobody else lives like this. Nobody. Nobody has to pay to have a baby around the world. Like give me a break. Nobody has to spend 40 hours a week, 40 hours a year doing taxes. Nobody else has to pay taxes to the US as a US citizen, no matter, no matter where they work and live in the world. Nope. Nobody does that. Only Miramar is the only other one. I mean, give me a break. Okay. Nobody has to pay. No, there's I've never paid more taxes than I have in the US. I'm telling you, nobody around the world is afraid to send their kids to school because of guns. You know how many people call me and schedule appointment with me because they take their kids to daycare. So the first time the child leaves the home, they go to the daycare and the kindergarten and in the kindergarten, they have to do active shooter training. Nowhere else. Who else has to do that? This place is so great. You know, like give me a break. Like it is really good in a lot of ways, but come on. You have some really big things that need to get sorted. My gosh. It's like what have I learned here? Like I have learned to value your health. Like you could just go to the doctor. People don't abuse it. Like I think the hardest thing about being an American, honestly, is the fear mongering that's happening. The fear mongering, the constant fear in the news, the constant propaganda that's going on, the constant fear of like one side better than the other. You got to fight, fight, fight. It's just, it's ridiculous. So like I could sell New Zealand all day long to Americans because there is a different way of doing it. It doesn't have to be New Zealand. You know what? New Zealand is Commonwealth. There's a lot of countries in the Commonwealth that are really great. Sorry. I don't know where this came from. There's that. Okay. Did you go to the Abel Tasman National Park? Yes. One of my absolute favorite. One of my absolute favorite. Oh my gosh. That makes me want to go back there. Oh, those golden sand beaches. Seriously, you guys. We did the whole backpacking, but then we got rained out. So we didn't get to go the whole way because it was so rainy. I mean, just pouring, you know, rain ruins camping and tramping. So we just, you know, got one of the fairies and got the heck out of there. But I enjoyed it. I'm thankful for the time that we had. So there's that. Anyway, I won't keep you guys. I don't think I have anything else to say. If you have any more questions, let me know. You can always message me and I hope to see you in my community.
