Welcome to the Real Real, where I take you behind the Instagram reel and into the real lives of

entrepreneurs, content creators, and anyone who inspires me and may inspire you too.

I'm your host Natalie Barboo and let's get into it. Hello everybody and welcome back to the real real podcast. I'm your host

Natalie Barbu and I am very excited for today's episode because today's episode

is something that has been in the works for a year and a half.

It is the day that we finally launched Rella, so this is the first podcast that Rella has actually

been out there. And if you follow me on social media you're probably like you

posted about this so much you've talked about it so much but I've literally been working on this

for a year and a half and the fact that it's out in the universe is something to

celebrate and I feel like as business owners as you know someone

who is more like entrepreneurial and entrepreneurs in general and founders they don't

take the time to celebrate because it never ends you know it's like's like, okay, great, we launch. Now we have even more work than before, you know, so it's like, yeah, we're celebrating, but it's like, oh my God, we have so much work to do. So I do think that sometimes we forget to celebrate and I've tried to kind of tell that to my team and to my co-founders like listen

This is a huge accomplishment obviously the work doesn't end and it doesn't slow down if anything it ramps up and you know we're going to be more stressed but we should take the time to celebrate and so that's kind of what I've been doing yesterday I just kind of celebrated I responded to everyone I didn't check my email like first day ever that I didn't even open my Google

app and I just responded to everyone thanking everyone for all of their support

for all of their help I mean it was just a really fun, fun day and so now I wanted to record a

podcast and I wanted this podcast to bring value to you because I know that I have a lot of

listeners that want to be entrepreneurs they are

entrepreneurs they want to start a business they want to be founders they are just

curious about the process so this episode is going to be about what starting a

business taught me but before we do that I also wanted to just give

you a little insight on what Rela is in case you just follow me on the podcast and you're not really sure about what it is.
