yeah i love it so amanda why is it that women are on such a back foot i mean what's been happening that's made us so behind the eight ball on this

And I can say this about everybody.

The financial education that we get across the board, male or female, is abysmal, to say the least.

And it's designed that way on purpose.

We're designed to stay dependent on something that maybe seems exclusive or we can't understand or we don't have access to.

But women in particular, because A, we're not taught.

We've been told our whole lives, depending on where you were raised, how old you are, Don't you worry your pretty little head about that.

yeah amplifying your message and getting it out to a broader audience it's a it's a big part of that whole awards leverage isn't it now amanda aside from the amazing work that you're doing to educate and to just help women become aware that they have options they have choices you know they don't need to sit back and and what was it when i worked at axa we had a um a campaign and one of the the girls in the marketing team came up with it um a man is not a financial plan um you know that's you know if you can't rely on somebody else to dig you out of a hole or to look after you for the rest of your life it's just if you want to take control of your future you need to learn and as Amanda says become curious if I could be curious with you for a minute though Amanda if I could take you back in time to any time in your life Where would you go and give yourself some advice that would help you with where you are today? What time in your life would that be? And what would that advice be?

So I would love for you to take me back to a point in time, or maybe it's like a time in your life that you feel really like put you on the path that you're on right now.

Yeah.

If you could pick one, oh my gosh, there were so many things that led up to this one, but I think the most pivotal thing I remember is is I had been married for 21 years at this point.

I had accidentally fallen into real estate investing as a semi part-time, not even a real thing that turned into like this major passion that I loved.

And I'm sitting on the couch with my husband on a Friday evening.

He's finished work for the week.

I'm watching TV and I'm not even on my phone or anything, but I am thinking and distracted And he turns off the television and, you know, it's like a marriage cannot sustain this.

can lead to some amazing things.

And what is the difference between Delta-8 and Delta-9? Because I hear Delta-8 a lot, but I've seen Delta-9 as

well.

Right.

Delta-8 and Delta-9 are both forms of THC.

Delta-9 is a higher level of psychoactive impact and Delta-8 is milder, but they're both forms of THC.

Under the 2019 Farm Bill, Delta 9 up to 0.3% is expressly protected.

That's not a controlled substance.

I know you said you were disappointed and you disagree, but what was your initial reaction? How did you feel in the moment?
