we try to teach fully unbridled, untethered, like this is how we teach, I give it all the way.

0:06.3

And so when people pay for a course like, oh, you're giving it away again.

0:09.7

Like, yeah. And I find that most people in our space don't do that. They give you morsels, they give

0:16.3

you tidbits, they talk about the problem, they talk about why you're not winning in life,

0:20.8

but they don't actually tell you what to do you. I v. Malak, and welcome to the ring, the squared circle as they say. We're going to do another five rounds with you and so I'm going to turn this over to you.

0:56.7

All right are you ready for the first question? I think I am. Should I be scared?

1:02.1

No, let's start easy. So, in talks that you've had in the future pro group, you have mentioned that people aren't showing up as their true selves.

1:59.2

You don't talk about yourself and who do you think you are sharing your victories when other people are suffering in the world?

2:04.8
