 Hi there lovers and friends! I'm here with my sister Lauren Morrison. We're about to have a discussion about work. The last time that we did this, there were some notes. There were some notes from the audience that maybe it would have been wiser for us to bring a third person into the discussion. I know we took very seriously and that is why we have brought a third person into this discussion and that third person is... Hi it's me. I'm Zara Morrison and I'm here to lead this discussion. My daughter is Zara Morrison. Okay let's get let's cut to the chase. I didn't know it was going to be intense. Okay I have some questions for you to answer and you have to answer honestly and wholeheartedly and it doesn't matter how it makes the other person feel, just answer. It's very good mediation. So the more offensive you can be the better. Question number one, it has been six months since YouTube started working together and I would like to know how that is change if that's changing anything. What's up everyone? It is still early 2022 and maybe your new year's resolution this year was to finally launch that big business or that idea that you've had.

When we first got together we talked about the different stages of coming together the storming, norming, performing and I think that we're at that now we're kind of at that performing phase and it's a really good time to reevaluate how we work together. I think that there's a lot of things that I'm doing now that can be easily handed off to someone else coming in and you know it allows me to work on bigger things for myself but also allows you and I to work on bigger things together as well. I feel like this became the beautiful reason. Yeah that's how I feel about us working together. It became the beautiful reason because I don't know if you would have moved to LA without having this in the back of your mind. I wouldn't. Yeah no and I know for a very long time you've wanted to coach and you've since 10 years ago you've wanted to do that. So when you came to LA you did both at the same time. You came because I'm going to work with my sister but I'm also going to start coaching my own business. Yeah but I don't think you realized how fast your own business would pick up and so I think we achieved a lot of success together and then you achieved a lot of success individually and then it just got to a place where to your point a lot of the success that we had achieved together in building systems and strategies could be handed off but the things that you were doing for you needed more of you and more of your time. Yeah definitely. I think when I first landed here there was a bit of a shock to my system on how my business started to pick up and there was a lot of anxiety that I was carrying around you know how can I do both instead of me having that strain we're coming together to find out how can we work differently. Is this kind of like an add-on question that links to the question I asked like the first question? Yeah. It was how did it feel communicating this like with each other? It was hard for me it was definitely tough and it's it's not for a lack of you know how supportive I know Shan and Jared to be it's not for a lack of that it's it's almost that because I know that they have my interests at heart I knew that they would choose my side even if that meant like there was a deficit to them and so that was a hard thing for me to communicate because I didn't want there to be a deficit for for you and Jared. I didn't want me pulling away to mean that things weren't going to happen on your end. I said I want to tell you something because you're my best friend and I would talk to you about these things but I don't want to tell you because this has to do with you and I know that you're taking on a lot and you were just like I trust your judgment and in that moment you made it a safe space for me to just say like I'm just in this place now where I'm I feel like I've taken on way too much I don't know what can come away because the last thing I want to do is leave you in a place where your stuff is coming away but at the same time the things that are picking up for me were very much in line with the things that I wanted to grow into. It was really hard for me to have that conversation but because you're my sister and just very tuned in it's almost like you started it for me as well. How does what she just said make make you feel? I feel happy I think from the very beginning and that's the thing is I was kind of reflecting on that when I was like what is the pros and the cons of working with family and the pro is you get to be around people like I had such a blast these past six months you know and I know I was gone for two of those let's call it four months but I had a blast the times that we worked together in the same space and I thought it was just like so fun and fulfilling and there was days where I was like this is my dream come true but then also on those days I'm like it's my dream come true I don't think it's Lauren's I don't think it's craze I'm not even sure if it's Jared's to say that right so there's kind of a con with that where you're you know you feel that guilt that you probably wouldn't feel if it was anybody else but the pro is that when you get to do something so beautiful the people you love you have to be on the people that you love and the people that you love are going to care about the growth and care about what you're doing in just a very very different way right also wouldn't wouldn't work in a family I mean like they know how how you like things I know like how you would want things to go well yeah and I think that that was kind of the hard part about it's not that I'm just anybody you know I'm a person who knows Shan's voice I know how to do things in a way that someone else coming in would struggle to do because they don't own your voice as much as I do and so that just makes you feel that much more kind of tied to it it's like if I strip that away that's very difficult to replace we started a podcast together in October and that has become an ambi nominated podcast huge deal that's great yes we have achieved incredible feats in the podcast world and I think we make something together that yeah I could not imagine making with anybody else the quality of it everything so I think that we had these big picture goals and we could knock off one of them but again kind of once you got into the flow of the podcast and we got the format down to your point you could be phased out but the other things that I could really use you for those other bigger picture startup ideas I'm not ready yet yeah and I think that was really the aha moment for me where I really felt that staying in the role was serving you but what I realized was that it was actually not serving you because you felt so badly delegating things to me because of the nature of what you needed help with like manage your calendar editing like various things um or you know cutting clips and everything like that you wouldn't feel a ways about it so me being here meant that you were actually as we evolved it you were actually taking on more work and so once I started to realize that it was working against even you then I was like then this doesn't make any sense for anyone then yeah um so that was kind of a really great aha moment for me where I was like now Shan and I can work together to bring other people on so that you don't feel bad delegating to people and I don't feel bad like stepping away from some of those tasks I mean from your perspective how hard did you watch your mom work since she's moved here I've seen her go a while without like one time I went to I went to school in the morning because she had a coaching meeting and then I came back and then until seven o'clock that's when she came out of her office and I saw her and I thought wow like she's working so hard and she feels guilty for not spending time with us and we have to constantly remind her that it's okay to not spend time with us because what you're doing is enough oh zb you know it was just such a great affirmation that if you are really vocal about where you are the people who love you like stand up and they give you that permission to just be like it's okay like what you're doing you're you're actually being harder on yourself because what you're doing is enough and we get it and we're we're here for you like so whatever supports your need even if that support is permission then that for me it's freeing so I have always appreciated that what accomplishments are you both proud of and before or before you answer I want to know what like singular accomplishments and what to get like what things that you earn together like what are you most proud of what what do you want to show off at a party like we're like oh I did this oh yeah we did that definitely my singular accomplishment was um has been being able to replace my actually exceed my corporate income with my own business within six months of not being there um I was that was something that I was really afraid of doing when I left I really didn't want to take away from your lifestyle with this move so I felt very responsible to figure out how to replace that income I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would replace that income with my own business that quickly so that's my my my best singular accomplishment do you want to go singular I mean I guess that's kind of the thing about right like my singular accomplishment is our dual accomplishment and as I'm saying it as well it's like it's a single accomplishment but it's not because I also recognize oh let me talk about me again I also recognize that there are so much of the reason why my business has taken off the way it has is because of your support in it because you always found ways to talk about it like you always acknowledged it in the podcast like so because you were such a supporter like I know that that is such a huge reason as to why I'm doing as well as I'm doing so as I was saying it to your point it's like it nothing feels singular because we've been so ingrained and tied at the hip especially for the last six months lord has been very huge coming up so tell him about it yeah so I'm going to be hosting a free masterclass on Thursday March the third at 5 p.m. Pacific time 8 p.m. eastern time and we're going
