Monica Wisdom:

Hey, black women, amplified family, it's your girl, Monica wisdom.

Monica Wisdom:

I hope that you are doing well.

Monica Wisdom:

I know, I know, I know.

Monica Wisdom:

There was supposed to be an interview coming out this week, but next week it'll happen.

Monica Wisdom:

We've had.

Monica Wisdom:

I've had some glitches in the background, but they are all taken care of.

Monica Wisdom:

And so we're back on our flow.

Monica Wisdom:

But like I also said, for this season, season four, we're gonna have more conversations with just me and you.

Monica Wisdom:

We've got plenty of interviews for you to explore, and I've got some coming up, but I feel like it's time for us to get to know each other better.

Monica Wisdom:

So that's the focus of season four, me and you getting to know each other better and having conversations that directly impact us, like.

Monica Wisdom:

Like this political season.

Monica Wisdom:

So before we get into this conversation, no, it's not going to be a political conversation, but it's important that you listen to the end.

Monica Wisdom:

Make sure you check out blackwomenamplified.com to read the blog post that I put up this week, as well as check out all the happenings with blackwomenamplified.com, all the expansion that we've done offering.

Monica Wisdom:

I can't wait.

Monica Wisdom:

I'm creating right now a podcasting course for people who want to get into podcasting.

Monica Wisdom:

I've been working on it for a while, but now I finally have refined it to the places I want to talk about because there's plenty of podcasting ways to learn how to podcast.

Monica Wisdom:

But this one is specific to people who want to leverage their expertise.

Monica Wisdom:

Because, you know, I've been an entrepreneur for 35 years, and one thing that is very important when you do a business is for people to know who you are, your values, your perspective, and your point of view in life.

Monica Wisdom:

Because with AI and everything happening, people are not trusting social media like they used to.

Monica Wisdom:

They're definitely not trusting the media like they used to.

Monica Wisdom:

But what is being trusted is, and the new influencers are people that are trusted.

Monica Wisdom:

And how people get to trust you is they get to know you.

Monica Wisdom:

And one of the best ways for people to get to know you in this landscape, on a more personal level, outside of social media, is podcasting.

Monica Wisdom:

So it's very beneficial in many different ways.

Monica Wisdom:

In fact, I am mentoring two people in Mexico City right now.

Monica Wisdom:

I've been doing it for about three months.

Monica Wisdom:

I've got one more month left.

Monica Wisdom:

And they work for one of the largest podcasting companies in Mexico, Mexico City, I should say.

Monica Wisdom:

And they're doing storytelling like telling, like documentary type storytelling with podcasting.

Monica Wisdom:

So I think that's great.

Monica Wisdom:

There's so many avenues you can cover.

Monica Wisdom:

I mean, audible is one of the biggest companies out there doing only audio, you know, not video.

Monica Wisdom:

So Apple podcasts Spotify all audio.

Monica Wisdom:

And so there's a lot of opportunity and there's a lot of celebrities getting to podcasting.

Monica Wisdom:

I started listening to the podcast with Sterling K.

Monica Wisdom:

Brown and his wife Ryan.

Monica Wisdom:

They do a funny, funny podcast.

Monica Wisdom:

Sherri shepherd, how she got her television show was through her podcast.

Monica Wisdom:

She's been an actor for 20 plus years and had been trying to get a television show for 18 years and a year and a half into her podcast with Kim Whitley.

Monica Wisdom:

She's got her own talk show because it garnered visibility for her and it allowed people to know her instead of just the characters she portrays in television and movies.

Monica Wisdom:

So anyway, that's a whole nother issue.

Monica Wisdom:

I mean, not issue, but a whole other thing.

Monica Wisdom:

And we'll talk about that later.

Monica Wisdom:

But if you go to the website and get on the email list when it is ready to, there's a lot of moving pieces, and I'm doing it all myself.

Monica Wisdom:

So there's lots of moving pieces that I'm putting together and, yeah, so, you know, you'll be the first to know about it.

Monica Wisdom:

If you're on my email list, of course I'll talk about it on social media and all the different places, but you all will be the first to hear about it.

Monica Wisdom:

But let's talk about this election, and I'm entitling this episode.

Monica Wisdom:

Vote your vision.

Monica Wisdom:

Now, what do I mean by vote your vision?

Monica Wisdom:

I hear a lot of people talk about, well, I'm just a one issue voter.

Monica Wisdom:

I don't understand what that means because it seems like if you're just focused on one issue, you're negating everything else that you need, right.

Monica Wisdom:

You're not even paying attention to everything else that you need.

Monica Wisdom:

So, for instance, if my only issue is the economy, I'm only paying attention to what I see.

Monica Wisdom:

And if I don't understand how economics work, I would think the economy and price gouging were the same thing.

Monica Wisdom:

They are not.

Monica Wisdom:

I would think that tariffs would benefit, benefit the economy.

Monica Wisdom:

It does not.

Monica Wisdom:

And so because I'm a complicated person and I have lots of moving parts to my life, as all people do, nobody is just a singular person, an amoeba.

Monica Wisdom:

Nobody's just an amoeba.

Monica Wisdom:

We have cells and we have, you know, blood cells.

Monica Wisdom:

We have all brain cells.

Monica Wisdom:

We have fat on our body.

Monica Wisdom:

We have muscles, we have bones, we have cartilage.

Monica Wisdom:

You know, we have all types of things happening within us, within our biology, all at the same time and the same thing about our lives.

Monica Wisdom:

We have many different roles in life.

Monica Wisdom:

We are mom, we are auntie, we are cousin, we are niece, we are daughter, we are father, we are uncle, we are cousin.

Monica Wisdom:

You know, we are boss, we are employee, we are entrepreneur, we are student.

Monica Wisdom:

So there's many different roles we play and all of those things are happening simultaneously.

Monica Wisdom:

So instead of it just being an amoeba, it's an ecosystem.

Monica Wisdom:

Ecosystem.

Monica Wisdom:

That's a whole nother conversation, but it's an ecosystem.

Monica Wisdom:

So when I say vote your vision, ask yourself, what is in my ecosystem and what does my ecosystem need?

Monica Wisdom:

Right?

Monica Wisdom:

So because we live in an ecosystem, we all have our own world that we have created and co curated with God.

Monica Wisdom:

And it is amazing because there's so much going on at the same time, you know?

Monica Wisdom:

And when I hear people talk about, I'm stressed out, I'm burned out, I'm overwhelmed, that's why.

Monica Wisdom:

Because everything is moving in so many different directions.

Monica Wisdom:

You have to kind of pull it all in, figure out what's important, what you need to work on, and what you need to let go of.

Monica Wisdom:

And that's when I teach my visioning process, the MVP process.

Monica Wisdom:

That's what I talk about.

Monica Wisdom:

What, what is everything going on?

Monica Wisdom:

Let's look at all of that and then let's break it down into what is good, what needs to be worked on, and what I need to let go of.

Monica Wisdom:

And that's the foundation of my visioning process.

Monica Wisdom:

So let's look at what's going on in the world.

Monica Wisdom:

We've got wars in the Middle east.

Monica Wisdom:

We've got Sudan.

Monica Wisdom:

Sudan, we've got Ukraine.

Monica Wisdom:

We've got all of that going on across the world.

Monica Wisdom:

We've got global inflation.

Monica Wisdom:

Not just in the United States of America, but we have global inflation.

Monica Wisdom:

We have regimes.

Monica Wisdom:

Paris and England, France and England were going through the same thing we were going through.

Monica Wisdom:

So this fascism movement is global.

Monica Wisdom:

It's not just the United States, but within one week, the people stood up and said no.

Monica Wisdom:

And then everybody, the fascist regimes were slated to win, and the people said no.

Monica Wisdom:

And within seven days, everything flipped around.

Monica Wisdom:

And France and France and England remained democracies.

Monica Wisdom:

Right?

Monica Wisdom:

And we have to understand, there's the immigration conversation happening.

Monica Wisdom:

But I find it really interesting that the immigration conversation is only about black and brown people.

Monica Wisdom:

When immigrants are anybody who's not from this country, that includes Sweden, Canada.

Monica Wisdom:

What else is out there?

Monica Wisdom:

All the countries.

Monica Wisdom:

All the countries.

Monica Wisdom:

Everyone but ours.

Monica Wisdom:

South America.

Monica Wisdom:

You know, Norway, England, France, Belgium.

Monica Wisdom:

All the countries that are not ours.

Monica Wisdom:

If you are not from this country and you're here to work or you've moved here and you're living here, you are indeed an immigrant of this.

Monica Wisdom:

Of this era.

Monica Wisdom:

Right.

Monica Wisdom:

But people don't see it that way.

Monica Wisdom:

For some reason.

Monica Wisdom:

It's stuck on black and brown people.

Monica Wisdom:

That bothers me a lot.

Monica Wisdom:

And the way that people.

Monica Wisdom:

And here's the thing.

Monica Wisdom:

The conversation has shifted from immigrants to migrants.

Monica Wisdom:

Like, when you talk about the issue happening in Haiti, migrants, a lot of people don't know this is what happens to.

Monica Wisdom:

But because I get a lot of intel, what happens is companies find our cities, find that they're okay.

Monica Wisdom:

Let's use the city.

Monica Wisdom:

Because what happened in Springfield, Springfield, this particular city, people were leaving the city.

Monica Wisdom:

The city was essentially dying, right?

Monica Wisdom:

So much so that the companies in the city did not want to leave, because that's what happens when a city packs up and leaves.

Monica Wisdom:

They don't have the workforce they need in the city that they're in, or it's too expensive to work there.

Monica Wisdom:

So what happens is these companies will go to other countries, create an agreement that a certain amount of people will be able to come to a particular city and work in this industry, as well as the support that needs to support that industry.

Monica Wisdom:

And that way, it.

Monica Wisdom:

These jobs are filled.

Monica Wisdom:

Right?

Monica Wisdom:

And they are migrant workers.

Monica Wisdom:

So they get a.

Monica Wisdom:

They have.

Monica Wisdom:

They're legally living in America to work.

Monica Wisdom:

That's the break.

Monica Wisdom:

That's an oversimplified version of what it is, but that's essentially what happens.

Monica Wisdom:

So when you're talking about the people in Haiti, they are migrant workers.

Monica Wisdom:

They came to United States to do a certain level of work.

Monica Wisdom:

It happens all around.

Monica Wisdom:

I remember the first time I saw it was there was a nursing shortage in America, and the kids, millennials, were not going into nursing, so it leaves a void.

Monica Wisdom:

So they went to the Philippines.

Monica Wisdom:

The Philippines trains these people to become nurses.

Monica Wisdom:

And suddenly you saw a huge amount of filipino women who were nurses.

Monica Wisdom:

So they brought them here as migrant workers to fill the needs of hospitals and doctors offices and XYZ, you know, all the places.

Monica Wisdom:

So that's how that works.

Monica Wisdom:

And it happens in many different industries.

Monica Wisdom:

It happens in engineering.

Monica Wisdom:

It happens in tech.

Monica Wisdom:

They will go to certain countries, because certain countries have, you know, their thing, their niche, I should say so.

Monica Wisdom:

For instance, Manila customer service is their niche.

Monica Wisdom:

That's what the country teaches them.

Monica Wisdom:

So they get a lot of these customer service jobs.

Monica Wisdom:

saw a lot of the downsizing,:

Monica Wisdom:

They were going to countries that can feel that need at a cheaper rate.

Monica Wisdom:

And so a lot of these.

Monica Wisdom:

What do they call them?

Monica Wisdom:

Yeah.

Monica Wisdom:

So a lot of these companies, instead of paying somebody what an American would require, they can pay five, six, $7 an hour to get the same work done.

Monica Wisdom:

So that's how they save money.

Monica Wisdom:

But either they have an office overseas or they bring them over here as migrant workers.

Monica Wisdom:

But typically, it's cheaper to just keep people overseas.

Monica Wisdom:

So I'm saying all of that to say that there are many things going on at the same time.

Monica Wisdom:

And as we decide our election, and I'm pulling out my biggest push yet because I really want people to get out and vote.

Monica Wisdom:

That is my most important thing, because that's the one piece that bothers me the most, is when people say, well, I'm just not going to vote.

Monica Wisdom:

And all that it took to have, like I said at the beginning, the privilege to vote, and I call it a privilege because it's not fully a right.

Monica Wisdom:

They keep making it more difficult and more difficult to vote, and it needs to be put in a position.

Monica Wisdom:

It really just needs to be in the constitution that one vote, one person.

Monica Wisdom:

That's it.

Monica Wisdom:

It doesn't need to be an amendment.

Monica Wisdom:

It needs to be written into the constitution because the amendments are getting changed all the time, especially when you have somebody who doesn't want this current constitution.

Monica Wisdom:

They want their own.

Monica Wisdom:

So anyway, when I say we have to look at our ecosystem and look at our lives, our lives are not just us.

Monica Wisdom:

We're not walking through the desert as a nomad with nobody around for hundreds of miles.

Monica Wisdom:

You know, we don't have a walking stick with a water pouch on our back and just walking through the desert like Erika Badu in a music video.

Monica Wisdom:

We have people in our lives.

Monica Wisdom:

We have, some of us have children, some of us have spiritual spouses, some of us have partners.

Monica Wisdom:

And then we live in a neighborhood.

Monica Wisdom:

So we have neighbors all around us.

Monica Wisdom:

Some of us only have neighbors that are just like us.

Monica Wisdom:

And some of us have neighbors that are all types of people, all types of religions, all types of ages, all types of belief systems, socioeconomically different.

Monica Wisdom:

But some people live in communities that is only just like them.

Monica Wisdom:

And so it is easier to stay how you are instead of reaching out because that's where you're comfortable.

Monica Wisdom:

But somebody like me, I live around all types of people, and I prefer it that way, you know, I prefer having a diversity of thought, diversity of income, diversity of interest, beliefs, because it helps me to expand and grow.

Monica Wisdom:

But that's just a personal choice.

Monica Wisdom:

Everybody has their personal choice.

Monica Wisdom:

And so when we look at, when I say vote, your vision, it's not just about your vision, it's about your ecosystem, who is in it and how will they thrive under your decision.

Monica Wisdom:

Right?

Monica Wisdom:

Because this isn't just this one issue thing right now.

Monica Wisdom:

It's so much bigger than that from my perspective.

Monica Wisdom:

It's way bigger than that of.

Monica Wisdom:

And so when I say who is in your ecosystem, who are your neighbors?

Monica Wisdom:

What do they need?

Monica Wisdom:

Right?

Monica Wisdom:

Who are the people who teach your children?

Monica Wisdom:

What do they need?

Monica Wisdom:

Your pastor, what does he need?

Monica Wisdom:

The people in your church or your synagogue or your temple, what do they need?

Monica Wisdom:

The people who work at the grocery store where you get your groceries every day, what do they need?

Monica Wisdom:

You know, what's important to them.

Monica Wisdom:

And here's the thing.

Monica Wisdom:

Here's the thought process.

Monica Wisdom:

Most of us think people need the same things that we do.

Monica Wisdom:

Our people look at life the same way that we do.

Monica Wisdom:

Completely different belief systems believe completely different things.

Monica Wisdom:

For some people, pro life means you're pro life all the lives, whether it's a soldier or a fetus, whether it's a kid down the street or an elderly person, whether it's a woman trying to give birth, or it's somebody who is ushering into the next phase of existence.

Monica Wisdom:

Life from beginning to death.

Monica Wisdom:

That's what some people mean when they say pro life.

Monica Wisdom:

A lot of people say when they say pro life, they just mean from the time of conception.

Monica Wisdom:

But who knows when that is?

Monica Wisdom:

Like, I don't know when that is.

Monica Wisdom:

Most women don't find out to the second month until they've missed a couple of cycles, a couple of periods.

Monica Wisdom:

So everybody has their own perspective and everybody has their own needs.

Monica Wisdom:

And so when I think of vote, your vision, your vision includes all of these different people in it.

Monica Wisdom:

Because of them, you're able to do what you need to do.

Monica Wisdom:

Your mechanic, right, your, the male person, right.

Monica Wisdom:

The, all of these different entities that are in our lives, all these different people that are in our lives, all of these different systems that are in our lives.

Monica Wisdom:

And we can't just say, well, I'm just going to focus on this.

Monica Wisdom:

Okay, so you're going to sit in your house and just focus on the economy.

Monica Wisdom:

That don't make no sense, you know, so, and it can't just be, well, as long as I got what I got, then I'm all good.

Monica Wisdom:

But when you leave your house, you encounter other people that help you on your journey, right?

Monica Wisdom:

Whether you're a college student or you're going to the library, you're going to the grocery store, you're going to the doctor, you're getting on a flight, there are people helping you along the way.

Monica Wisdom:

So we have to take off those blinders and really understand that we are not in this.

Monica Wisdom:

No matter how lonely you feel, we are not in this world alone.

Monica Wisdom:

We are not in this country alone.

Monica Wisdom:

We are not in our neighborhood alone.

Monica Wisdom:

Now, we might not.

Monica Wisdom:

We might choose to not engage with people.

Monica Wisdom:

We might have a phobia, so we don't engage with people, but the people are still there.

Monica Wisdom:

So matter how hard you try, they're not disappearing.

Monica Wisdom:

Like, you can't disappear me, you know, I can't disappear you.

Monica Wisdom:

And nor do I want to.

Monica Wisdom:

I feel.

Monica Wisdom:

I feel you have the right to exist.

Monica Wisdom:

You have the right to.

Monica Wisdom:

If you're a racist person and you can't stand me because of my complexion, I have the right to exist and feel the way that I do.

Monica Wisdom:

And you have the right to exist the way that you do.

Monica Wisdom:

I might not like it, and I don't.

Monica Wisdom:

And it's scary to me, but I still feel like you have the right to feel like that.

Monica Wisdom:

I don't know why you feel like it.

Monica Wisdom:

And most times people don't know why they're racist.

Monica Wisdom:

They just are.

Monica Wisdom:

But I say all that to say that the vision, the vote needs to match the vision.

Monica Wisdom:

Not just the vision for yourself in this moment, but your vision for the future.

Monica Wisdom:

You know, what if one day you want to open up a business?

Monica Wisdom:

What if one day you want to marry somebody who's not your nationality, right?

Monica Wisdom:

They just passed in the senate in Nashville.

Monica Wisdom:

They're trying to get rid of interracial relationships.

Monica Wisdom:

And that keeps coming up around different little areas in the country.

Monica Wisdom:

So what if they're able to take it to the Supreme Court of the United States and they're like, oh, well, yeah, so I think that's right.

Monica Wisdom:

I think that's a good thing.

Monica Wisdom:

So then it becomes law of the land.

Monica Wisdom:

Interracial relationships are not illegal.

Monica Wisdom:

So that will make your marriage null and void.

Monica Wisdom:

So everything that you have built with somebody because of their complexion is now null and void.

Monica Wisdom:

Same thing with same sex marriage.

Monica Wisdom:

And my thought is always, when they start with one, they have a game plan for more because they are not single issue people.

Monica Wisdom:

They have a chessboard and a 50 to 100 year game plan.

Monica Wisdom:

All ready to go.

Monica Wisdom:

And they just pass it on to the next person.

Monica Wisdom:

The next person and the next person.

Monica Wisdom:

We need the same thing for our lives.

Monica Wisdom:

What is the game plan for our lives?

Monica Wisdom:

What is the future?

Monica Wisdom:

No matter how old you are, if you're in your seventies, what is your next 20 years gonna look like?

Monica Wisdom:

If you're ten, what are your next 20 years gonna look like?

Monica Wisdom:

What do you want your 30 to look like?

Monica Wisdom:

And I've done vision boarding every year the last couple years.

Monica Wisdom:

I didn't.

Monica Wisdom:

And I tell you what, there's been a big difference in my life.

Monica Wisdom:

It's very important that we have a vision for our life.

Monica Wisdom:

We focus with intention and move forward to that vision.

Monica Wisdom:

So what is your vision for your life?

Monica Wisdom:

And remember, your vision is not just about you.

Monica Wisdom:

I remember I was talking to someone years ago, and she was.

Monica Wisdom:

She asked me to advise her on some stuff she was going through, and at this time, she was a CFO for a company, and she wasn't happy anymore.

Monica Wisdom:

And she didn't know they had.

Monica Wisdom:

They laid her off, or they were about to lay her off, and she didn't know what to do.

Monica Wisdom:

So we went to lunch and then sat down, and I said, well, okay.

Monica Wisdom:

I said, we'll start your own company.

Monica Wisdom:

You have all the connections.

Monica Wisdom:

You know what to do.

Monica Wisdom:

Start your own company.

Monica Wisdom:

She was terrified.

Monica Wisdom:

She was terrified to start her own business.

Monica Wisdom:

And so I said, well, let's look at this.

Monica Wisdom:

Let's shift how you're looking at this.

Monica Wisdom:

Let's talk about, what do you, where do you want to be in life in ten years, and what's the best way to get there?

Monica Wisdom:

Where are you now and what do you need to let go of?

Monica Wisdom:

What is working?

Monica Wisdom:

Like I said before, what is working, what do you need to work on, and what do you need to let go of?

Monica Wisdom:

So we went through that whole process, and so I took her through my MVP process, and she ended up starting her own company.

Monica Wisdom:

And that was about 15 years ago, and she just sold her company for a huge amount of money that if she had not said yes to her vision, she would be working at somebody else's job.

Monica Wisdom:

And I'm not saying that anything is wrong with that, but my point is, is that she had to look at her life from the perspective of not just herself, but her ecosystem.

Monica Wisdom:

What did she want for her children?

Monica Wisdom:

What did she want for her marriage?

Monica Wisdom:

What does she want for her lifestyle?

Monica Wisdom:

What did she want to be able to do?

Monica Wisdom:

What would her company look like?

Monica Wisdom:

What would that ecosystem look like?

Monica Wisdom:

What would the people that she hired be like.

Monica Wisdom:

And so one thing that she initiated for her company was my dream board.

Monica Wisdom:

And she put it in her office and told everybody to add to the dream board because she wanted to make sure that with her company, everybody's dreams came true.

Monica Wisdom:

And they did.

Monica Wisdom:

So I say all that to say, and I'm complete with this conversation, but vote your vision.

Monica Wisdom:

But first of all, think about your vision.

Monica Wisdom:

Think about the vision for the people in your ecosystem.

Monica Wisdom:

Think about their future and not just your own.

Monica Wisdom:

Think about your family, whether you like them or not.

Monica Wisdom:

Think about your friends.

Monica Wisdom:

You know, what does that look like, your hairstylist and the people in there, what do they need?

Monica Wisdom:

And will your vision help them or harm them?

Monica Wisdom:

Be clear about that question.

Monica Wisdom:

Will your vision help them or harm them?

Monica Wisdom:

And so I say to you, my sisters and the men that love us, vote your vision and pay attention to the people that are around you.

Monica Wisdom:

Because if we continue to live in a way that is only just about us, what's going to happen is it's just only going to be us.

Monica Wisdom:

And life will be nothing but gray areas.

Monica Wisdom:

So this is your girl, Monica wisdom.

Monica Wisdom:

Next week, we will be back with our interview with an amazing person.

Monica Wisdom:

I pray that all things align for this to be released.

Monica Wisdom:

And if you had an opportunity, make sure you go hear my interview with the Shaping Freedom podcast and you will get to hear more about me and my story and my ecosystem and why I'm the way that I am.

Monica Wisdom:

Child, you really want to know that?

Monica Wisdom:

Anyway, have an amazing day and really honor and respect, like really, really sit and think about all that it took for your ability to not just vote, but to make a choice to vote.

Monica Wisdom:

And my prayer is that you choose to vote and that you choose to vote so that everybody in your ecosystem lives a life that they can thrive in, not from the way you think they should live, but the way that they choose to live for themselves.

Monica Wisdom:

Have an amazing evening and I will be back soon.
