Transforming Spaces To Transform Lives With Kelsey Miller

1
00:00:00,010 --> 00:00:02,239
When did you take that leap to move from

2
00:00:02,250 --> 00:00:04,520
just doing the business, you know, on

3
00:00:04,520 --> 00:00:06,820
the side to actually being full time?

4
00:00:07,550 --> 00:00:08,610
Oh, honey, I just did it.

5
00:00:08,659 --> 00:00:09,040
Oh, you just did it.

6
00:00:09,430 --> 00:00:09,820
Okay.

7
00:00:09,869 --> 00:00:10,219
Awesome.

8
00:00:11,190 --> 00:00:12,580
Welcome to We Build This Brand.

9
00:00:12,610 --> 00:00:14,260
I'm your host as always, Chris Hill.

10
00:00:14,489 --> 00:00:15,469
And today on the podcast,

11
00:00:15,489 --> 00:00:16,720
we're talking to Kelsey Miller.

12
00:00:16,965 --> 00:00:18,244
She's the founder of Klosets by

13
00:00:18,244 --> 00:00:19,775
Kelsey, which is a business focused

14
00:00:19,775 --> 00:00:21,685
on organizing, styling, and personal

15
00:00:21,685 --> 00:00:23,554
shopping that's based right here in

16
00:00:23,554 --> 00:00:25,185
my hometown of Knoxville, Tennessee.

17
00:00:25,395 --> 00:00:27,345
Now, she's had a lot of experience

18
00:00:27,365 --> 00:00:28,794
organizing, styling, and

19
00:00:28,794 --> 00:00:30,115
personal shopping for her friends

20
00:00:30,115 --> 00:00:31,554
and family for a long time.

21
00:00:31,825 --> 00:00:34,114
And just in the past few years, she has

22
00:00:34,194 --> 00:00:36,455
finally turned that into a business.

23
00:00:36,465 --> 00:00:38,075
So in this episode, we're going to

24
00:00:38,075 --> 00:00:39,495
talk about her journey, what led

25
00:00:39,495 --> 00:00:41,495
her to start this business, what

26
00:00:41,495 --> 00:00:43,974
led her to leave her corporate job.

27
00:00:44,310 --> 00:00:46,300
And we're going to talk about all

28
00:00:46,300 --> 00:00:47,900
the challenges that come with that.

29
00:00:47,940 --> 00:00:49,460
She also gives me some great fashion

30
00:00:49,460 --> 00:00:51,120
advice and some organizational tips.

31
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,200
And of course, it wouldn't

32
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:53,360
be a branding podcast without

33
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:54,400
some branding in it, right?

34
00:00:54,629 --> 00:00:55,959
We talk about personal branding,

35
00:00:55,959 --> 00:00:57,560
we talk about fashion, and of

36
00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:58,850
course, we're going to commiserate

37
00:00:58,860 --> 00:01:00,119
about the challenges of running a

38
00:01:00,119 --> 00:01:01,430
small business while we're at it.

39
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,620
So, I think you'll really enjoy this one.

40
00:01:03,620 --> 00:01:04,590
I had a lot of fun.

41
00:01:04,590 --> 00:01:06,390
Kelsey's a great host, she was a great

42
00:01:06,430 --> 00:01:09,400
guest, and just love the opportunity

43
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,140
to interview her on this episode.

44
00:01:11,150 --> 00:01:13,449
So, without further ado, here's my

45
00:01:13,449 --> 00:01:15,120
conversation with Kelsey Miller.

46
00:01:19,599 --> 00:01:20,960
Alrighty, well, welcome back.

47
00:01:21,019 --> 00:01:22,729
I'm joined today by Kelsey Miller.

48
00:01:22,780 --> 00:01:24,130
Kelsey, thank you for joining us.

49
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,580
Thank you so much for coming into my

50
00:01:26,580 --> 00:01:30,250
home and doing what you do, sharing

51
00:01:30,250 --> 00:01:32,560
people's stories, and especially local.

52
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,880
And I think that's amazing.

53
00:01:33,930 --> 00:01:35,649
So thank you for having me a part of it.

54
00:01:35,690 --> 00:01:37,660
I can tell you do interior design.

55
00:01:37,660 --> 00:01:38,490
In fact, your business

56
00:01:38,490 --> 00:01:39,879
is Klosets by Kelsey.

57
00:01:39,879 --> 00:01:40,669
Yes.

58
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,439
Yeah, I do.

59
00:01:41,829 --> 00:01:43,359
I feel like a little bit of everything.

60
00:01:43,579 --> 00:01:44,649
I'm a true Aquarius.

61
00:01:44,649 --> 00:01:47,929
I'm very creative, unique and kind

62
00:01:47,929 --> 00:01:49,109
of go to the beat of my own drum.

63
00:01:49,349 --> 00:01:52,050
But, uh, yeah, I love all things.

64
00:01:52,425 --> 00:01:55,185
Design, fashion, interior.

65
00:01:55,615 --> 00:01:58,685
I just truly believe that if you surround

66
00:01:58,685 --> 00:02:00,975
yourself with things and items that

67
00:02:00,975 --> 00:02:03,369
you love and bring you joy, That just

68
00:02:03,369 --> 00:02:05,160
kind of, you know, goes through the

69
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,660
mind, body, and spirit of yourself.

70
00:02:07,290 --> 00:02:07,860
That's awesome.

71
00:02:07,900 --> 00:02:08,259
Yes.

72
00:02:09,090 --> 00:02:09,850
That's really neat.

73
00:02:09,850 --> 00:02:11,700
So how did, how did all

74
00:02:11,700 --> 00:02:12,890
of this get started?

75
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,050
Well, so it started actually when I

76
00:02:17,050 --> 00:02:19,789
was very, very young, when my parents

77
00:02:19,789 --> 00:02:21,659
were going through a divorce, actually.

78
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:25,290
So I think through a lot of therapy,

79
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,644
I realized that organizing, you know,

80
00:02:29,924 --> 00:02:32,015
And keeping things tidy was my way to

81
00:02:32,015 --> 00:02:35,775
control my environment and seeing how

82
00:02:35,805 --> 00:02:40,335
order and organizing made me feel better.

83
00:02:40,885 --> 00:02:44,274
I just, I love that feeling

84
00:02:44,275 --> 00:02:47,244
and I want, wanted to create a

85
00:02:47,244 --> 00:02:49,474
business where I can help others.

86
00:02:49,785 --> 00:02:52,745
Find that space of like calm and look

87
00:02:52,745 --> 00:02:55,204
at organizing as something not scary,

88
00:02:55,465 --> 00:02:58,224
it's more of a therapeutic system.

89
00:02:58,464 --> 00:02:59,355
I get, I get that.

90
00:02:59,364 --> 00:03:00,884
We didn't have you come in, but we

91
00:03:00,884 --> 00:03:02,424
did have just some housekeepers come

92
00:03:02,424 --> 00:03:04,064
in and clean our house over Christmas

93
00:03:04,064 --> 00:03:05,994
season, and I did it as a gift to my

94
00:03:05,994 --> 00:03:07,554
wife because she's a school teacher,

95
00:03:07,554 --> 00:03:10,944
we have two kids, really busy, and

96
00:03:11,154 --> 00:03:13,685
it was just, It was a load off.

97
00:03:13,695 --> 00:03:15,715
Like it was a, they were there for longer

98
00:03:15,715 --> 00:03:18,475
than they expected to be, but we had

99
00:03:18,475 --> 00:03:21,055
a lot to do, but it was really good.

100
00:03:21,165 --> 00:03:23,284
And I can definitely, definitely tell

101
00:03:23,284 --> 00:03:24,485
and definitely attest to like that

102
00:03:24,895 --> 00:03:26,515
mental health that comes with keeping a

103
00:03:26,515 --> 00:03:29,384
space organized and clean and, and nice.

104
00:03:29,384 --> 00:03:30,324
There's just something about

105
00:03:30,324 --> 00:03:32,165
walking into a space that's prepared

106
00:03:32,165 --> 00:03:33,665
and ready where you just go, Oh

107
00:03:33,735 --> 00:03:34,115
yeah,

108
00:03:34,155 --> 00:03:34,865
I'm here.

109
00:03:34,915 --> 00:03:36,475
And everything's where it should be.

110
00:03:36,475 --> 00:03:37,275
This is nice.

111
00:03:37,475 --> 00:03:40,195
Life is stressful enough, so if

112
00:03:40,215 --> 00:03:42,275
I can help my clients maintain

113
00:03:42,275 --> 00:03:43,505
a stress free lifestyle.

114
00:03:44,055 --> 00:03:46,395
through my organizing services, through

115
00:03:46,415 --> 00:03:49,645
styling or personal shopping, then

116
00:03:49,945 --> 00:03:53,174
I'm doing my purpose, my life's work.

117
00:03:53,815 --> 00:03:54,415
That's awesome.

118
00:03:54,785 --> 00:03:56,214
So, so it started when you were

119
00:03:56,214 --> 00:03:58,984
young, inspired you, and then where

120
00:03:58,984 --> 00:04:00,665
did it actually become a business?

121
00:04:00,684 --> 00:04:02,014
How did you start getting paid for it?

122
00:04:02,420 --> 00:04:04,530
After college, I went to MTSU.

123
00:04:04,590 --> 00:04:06,310
I went to school for fashion

124
00:04:06,310 --> 00:04:09,610
merchandising, and I learned so much.

125
00:04:09,610 --> 00:04:12,110
I loved it, but I thought I wanted to

126
00:04:12,110 --> 00:04:14,989
be a buyer, and so after college, I

127
00:04:14,989 --> 00:04:17,399
worked for this boutique that I adore

128
00:04:17,449 --> 00:04:19,810
and still shop with, and I was the

129
00:04:19,810 --> 00:04:21,840
store manager and assistant buyer there.

130
00:04:22,215 --> 00:04:25,355
And I love the aspect of working with

131
00:04:25,355 --> 00:04:28,635
my clients and I would style them and

132
00:04:28,645 --> 00:04:31,245
pick out personalized outfits for them

133
00:04:31,544 --> 00:04:34,004
and seeing how that made a difference in

134
00:04:34,004 --> 00:04:36,254
their lives and gave them so much joy,

135
00:04:36,294 --> 00:04:38,545
made them feel good about themselves.

136
00:04:39,005 --> 00:04:41,574
I realized that I'm supposed to

137
00:04:41,585 --> 00:04:43,664
do something along those lines.

138
00:04:43,864 --> 00:04:46,364
So then that kind of evolved to, well,

139
00:04:46,375 --> 00:04:49,490
you know, my clients would come to me and

140
00:04:49,490 --> 00:04:52,450
tell me, Oh my gosh, my closet's a mess.

141
00:04:52,940 --> 00:04:54,520
And I'm like, I organized

142
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:55,500
my sweaters on a weekend.

143
00:04:55,510 --> 00:04:56,760
I would love to come.

144
00:04:57,110 --> 00:05:00,130
and help you do a closet edit and see what

145
00:05:00,130 --> 00:05:01,760
you need, see what you need to get rid of.

146
00:05:02,050 --> 00:05:06,700
So there we started a service with that

147
00:05:06,700 --> 00:05:08,430
boutique that they still use to this day.

148
00:05:08,430 --> 00:05:11,039
They do a closet edit and styling

149
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,819
service still, which is great.

150
00:05:12,849 --> 00:05:15,349
So that's really how it got started.

151
00:05:15,349 --> 00:05:17,820
But of course, when you're young, and I

152
00:05:17,820 --> 00:05:19,940
just never thought this could be a career

153
00:05:19,940 --> 00:05:22,630
and be a business, but it really took

154
00:05:22,630 --> 00:05:26,265
off in 2020 when I was actually a sales

155
00:05:26,265 --> 00:05:28,805
rep for a fashion company in Atlanta.

156
00:05:29,145 --> 00:05:31,174
Loved it, worked with buyers, so I

157
00:05:31,224 --> 00:05:33,674
went on the opposite side of the table.

158
00:05:33,995 --> 00:05:35,025
And, because I was like, you know

159
00:05:35,025 --> 00:05:36,515
what, I don't really like these

160
00:05:36,515 --> 00:05:38,765
spreadsheets, and buying and being

161
00:05:38,954 --> 00:05:40,655
in control of all this inventory.

162
00:05:41,044 --> 00:05:43,514
So, I love people, I love clothes,

163
00:05:43,534 --> 00:05:44,949
and I was like, heck, let's do this.

164
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,760
So fun, loved it.

165
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,020
But when COVID hit, I couldn't travel

166
00:05:51,020 --> 00:05:54,030
anymore and my family and friends knew I

167
00:05:54,030 --> 00:05:57,369
did organizing as a hobby and enjoyed it.

168
00:05:57,369 --> 00:05:59,030
So they would call me and be like,

169
00:05:59,090 --> 00:06:01,649
Kelsey, can you please come and

170
00:06:01,649 --> 00:06:03,949
just help me pick out an outfit

171
00:06:03,990 --> 00:06:06,880
or My living room is a wreck.

172
00:06:07,830 --> 00:06:09,849
The toy situation and the kids room,

173
00:06:10,030 --> 00:06:12,310
you know, so when that started happening

174
00:06:12,310 --> 00:06:14,310
and just clicked, I was like, wow,

175
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,750
I could turn this into a business.

176
00:06:17,630 --> 00:06:19,899
Never really thought my hobby

177
00:06:20,250 --> 00:06:22,259
or a passion could do that.

178
00:06:22,990 --> 00:06:25,330
So that's how it kind of got started.

179
00:06:25,780 --> 00:06:26,490
That's really cool.

180
00:06:26,490 --> 00:06:29,495
So it turned into, it went from a a hobby

181
00:06:29,525 --> 00:06:31,975
into being more of a full time business.

182
00:06:31,975 --> 00:06:34,055
And so, at what point did you

183
00:06:34,055 --> 00:06:35,905
realize this is something?

184
00:06:35,905 --> 00:06:38,204
It's not just a hobby or a side hustle.

185
00:06:38,204 --> 00:06:40,474
Like, at what point did you have

186
00:06:40,475 --> 00:06:42,024
that moment of, what I call, moment

187
00:06:42,024 --> 00:06:43,654
of validation in your business where

188
00:06:43,654 --> 00:06:46,105
you're like, okay, I can do this and

189
00:06:46,145 --> 00:06:48,665
I don't have to do this other job?

190
00:06:49,005 --> 00:06:49,595
Yes.

191
00:06:49,605 --> 00:06:53,365
So, um, I believe that getting validation

192
00:06:53,365 --> 00:06:55,495
from my clients and the people that I

193
00:06:55,495 --> 00:06:58,275
was working with, they would tell me

194
00:06:58,625 --> 00:07:01,655
that I was changing their daily life.

195
00:07:01,694 --> 00:07:04,954
I was making their quality of life better.

196
00:07:05,205 --> 00:07:09,134
So to me, that is more than any

197
00:07:09,134 --> 00:07:10,664
amount of money I could make.

198
00:07:11,224 --> 00:07:12,944
You know, like, that's, I'm

199
00:07:12,944 --> 00:07:14,164
just very purpose driven.

200
00:07:14,164 --> 00:07:16,664
And so that was just validation for me.

201
00:07:16,704 --> 00:07:19,344
All right, you have got

202
00:07:19,344 --> 00:07:20,405
to continue to do this.

203
00:07:20,414 --> 00:07:20,965
Like, you're making a

204
00:07:20,965 --> 00:07:22,255
difference in people's lives.

205
00:07:22,255 --> 00:07:24,474
And you love what you do.

206
00:07:24,574 --> 00:07:26,734
And it brings you joy in them joy.

207
00:07:27,305 --> 00:07:28,414
That's, that's really cool.

208
00:07:28,414 --> 00:07:30,935
So you're, you're not just, you're

209
00:07:30,935 --> 00:07:32,205
not working like you're not just

210
00:07:32,205 --> 00:07:33,755
like a housekeeping service or you're

211
00:07:33,755 --> 00:07:35,624
not just custom designing closets.

212
00:07:35,625 --> 00:07:37,015
I think when I first heard the name,

213
00:07:37,414 --> 00:07:39,455
my thought went to, Oh, are you doing

214
00:07:39,455 --> 00:07:41,584
like custom design closets for people?

215
00:07:41,585 --> 00:07:42,505
But it sounds like this

216
00:07:42,515 --> 00:07:43,914
is really more of a.

217
00:07:44,305 --> 00:07:45,495
a personalized service.

218
00:07:45,725 --> 00:07:47,865
Yeah, it's very much so.

219
00:07:47,875 --> 00:07:50,305
So, basically, I do home

220
00:07:50,305 --> 00:07:52,845
organizing, personal and interior

221
00:07:52,845 --> 00:07:55,044
styling, and personal shopping.

222
00:07:55,385 --> 00:07:57,085
So, it's more of a

223
00:07:57,124 --> 00:07:59,414
creative avenue as well.

224
00:07:59,765 --> 00:08:01,824
Okay, and in what, when you mean

225
00:08:01,825 --> 00:08:03,634
personal interior, what about

226
00:08:03,664 --> 00:08:05,054
the personal aspects of it?

227
00:08:05,054 --> 00:08:07,694
Like, how, what, what are you focused on?

228
00:08:07,694 --> 00:08:09,004
What do you, how do you approach

229
00:08:09,004 --> 00:08:10,874
that with people to personalize?

230
00:08:11,405 --> 00:08:15,035
So we all have unique qualities about

231
00:08:15,055 --> 00:08:18,695
us, and we all have something that

232
00:08:19,375 --> 00:08:21,585
makes us smile, that gives us a spark.

233
00:08:21,645 --> 00:08:24,275
And I try to put that in the home

234
00:08:24,655 --> 00:08:27,375
and put that into the wardrobe.

235
00:08:27,704 --> 00:08:29,684
And that normally comes

236
00:08:29,684 --> 00:08:31,295
along with creating order.

237
00:08:31,335 --> 00:08:33,285
I think everyone wants to have

238
00:08:33,285 --> 00:08:35,695
some sort of order in their life.

239
00:08:35,725 --> 00:08:38,655
And so helping them come up with a system

240
00:08:38,655 --> 00:08:40,354
that works with their everyday life.

241
00:08:40,650 --> 00:08:43,520
while also adding some flair and

242
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,040
color, whatever that may be, that

243
00:08:47,220 --> 00:08:48,730
is, you know, what they want.

244
00:08:48,730 --> 00:08:50,040
And that's what I want for my client.

245
00:08:50,620 --> 00:08:53,549
So moving beyond just when you

246
00:08:53,549 --> 00:08:55,609
got started, like you've got the

247
00:08:55,609 --> 00:08:56,879
validation, you got the business.

248
00:08:56,879 --> 00:08:59,119
When did you take that leap to move from

249
00:08:59,129 --> 00:09:01,459
just doing the business, you know, on

250
00:09:01,749 --> 00:09:03,719
the side to actually being full time?

251
00:09:04,439 --> 00:09:05,509
Oh, honey, I just did it.

252
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:05,939
Oh, you just did it.

253
00:09:06,329 --> 00:09:06,709
Okay.

254
00:09:07,299 --> 00:09:07,469
Awesome.

255
00:09:07,749 --> 00:09:11,069
It was, you know, I've just realized that.

256
00:09:11,479 --> 00:09:15,000
I have this entrepreneur spirit in me, and

257
00:09:15,350 --> 00:09:17,470
I'm the only person holding myself back.

258
00:09:18,070 --> 00:09:20,189
So, I just have to do it.

259
00:09:20,210 --> 00:09:23,869
And I think sometimes you just

260
00:09:23,869 --> 00:09:25,909
have to take a risk in order

261
00:09:25,909 --> 00:09:27,560
to see if you fail or succeed.

262
00:09:27,560 --> 00:09:29,039
And that's the feedback from the

263
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,380
universe that you get, you know,

264
00:09:31,380 --> 00:09:33,675
like, You never know unless you try.

265
00:09:34,105 --> 00:09:36,935
So, at least if I tried, I did

266
00:09:36,954 --> 00:09:38,835
something that I love, you know.

267
00:09:39,645 --> 00:09:41,904
So, we're talking about helping

268
00:09:41,904 --> 00:09:44,705
personalize for people's style, people's

269
00:09:44,705 --> 00:09:47,525
homes, all these different things.

270
00:09:47,595 --> 00:09:49,774
What kind of market do you really serve?

271
00:09:49,774 --> 00:09:50,634
Like, who are, who is

272
00:09:50,635 --> 00:09:51,804
your target customer?

273
00:09:51,925 --> 00:09:54,605
So, with my target market, I

274
00:09:54,775 --> 00:09:56,335
have evolved, I think, more into

275
00:09:56,335 --> 00:09:59,144
a lifestyle brand and business.

276
00:09:59,154 --> 00:10:02,574
So, this is catered towards, I would

277
00:10:02,574 --> 00:10:08,175
say mainly women in their 30s all the

278
00:10:08,175 --> 00:10:11,584
way to, oh my gosh, even 60s, 70s,

279
00:10:11,844 --> 00:10:16,215
because I would say my services applied

280
00:10:16,255 --> 00:10:19,815
to major milestones in people's lives.

281
00:10:20,044 --> 00:10:22,334
So a lot of time it's someone's

282
00:10:22,334 --> 00:10:23,824
getting married, someone just bought

283
00:10:23,824 --> 00:10:27,395
a house, um, the kids are graduating,

284
00:10:27,425 --> 00:10:29,685
they're out of the house, new baby.

285
00:10:30,155 --> 00:10:31,535
Or even it could be, you know,

286
00:10:31,545 --> 00:10:33,125
my husband died, my wife died.

287
00:10:33,324 --> 00:10:36,064
It's all very situational.

288
00:10:36,114 --> 00:10:38,025
So I definitely think it

289
00:10:38,025 --> 00:10:40,834
applies to a wide range when it

290
00:10:40,835 --> 00:10:42,484
comes to age, which is great.

291
00:10:42,784 --> 00:10:45,874
And I think that also my demographic

292
00:10:45,885 --> 00:10:48,165
is obviously someone that does

293
00:10:48,174 --> 00:10:50,465
have, you know, a disposable income.

294
00:10:50,954 --> 00:10:53,475
It is a bit of a luxury service, but

295
00:10:53,515 --> 00:10:55,615
I tell my clients, you deserve luxury.

296
00:10:55,935 --> 00:10:56,965
Honey, you deserve to

297
00:10:56,965 --> 00:10:57,905
have a peace of mind.

298
00:10:57,905 --> 00:10:58,705
You deserve to look good

299
00:10:58,705 --> 00:10:59,805
and feel good in your home.

300
00:11:00,744 --> 00:11:03,425
You know, um, but what's great is I do

301
00:11:03,425 --> 00:11:06,255
offer customizable packages, so, you

302
00:11:06,255 --> 00:11:07,914
know, if budget is an issue, I will do

303
00:11:07,914 --> 00:11:10,014
my best to try to help you as best as

304
00:11:10,015 --> 00:11:11,814
I can with the budget that you have.

305
00:11:11,864 --> 00:11:12,514
That's awesome.

306
00:11:12,944 --> 00:11:15,284
Um, on your website and in your

307
00:11:15,344 --> 00:11:16,795
branding, because this is We Built

308
00:11:16,795 --> 00:11:18,505
This Brand, I noticed that your

309
00:11:18,515 --> 00:11:21,415
tagline is, A New Space, A New You.

310
00:11:21,785 --> 00:11:22,684
Where did that come from?

311
00:11:22,694 --> 00:11:22,755
Thank you.

312
00:11:23,935 --> 00:11:25,445
I don't know, really.

313
00:11:25,445 --> 00:11:26,925
I mean, I think it just kind of

314
00:11:26,975 --> 00:11:29,765
came to me whenever I just have

315
00:11:29,775 --> 00:11:33,035
like personally organized my space.

316
00:11:33,625 --> 00:11:35,365
I've realized I'm like, Oh my gosh,

317
00:11:35,375 --> 00:11:37,095
like what I just did and created,

318
00:11:37,175 --> 00:11:39,314
I created literally a new space

319
00:11:39,375 --> 00:11:41,315
and I feel like a new person.

320
00:11:41,684 --> 00:11:45,125
So I want my clients to feel that way too,

321
00:11:45,525 --> 00:11:48,555
because It is, it is a lifestyle change.

322
00:11:48,555 --> 00:11:51,085
Like you're changing a lot, you know,

323
00:11:51,145 --> 00:11:52,745
like whenever you are going through

324
00:11:52,745 --> 00:11:55,265
this process and I even feel like, you

325
00:11:55,265 --> 00:11:59,105
know, the tagline will evolve into a,

326
00:11:59,295 --> 00:12:01,074
you know, a different approach too.

327
00:12:01,074 --> 00:12:02,355
It's like, not just a

328
00:12:02,355 --> 00:12:03,944
new space, a new you.

329
00:12:03,944 --> 00:12:04,174
It's.

330
00:12:04,930 --> 00:12:08,040
You know, a new environment, a new being.

331
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,729
Um, so yeah, that's kind of where it came

332
00:12:11,729 --> 00:12:14,030
from and will slowly evolve, I'm sure.

333
00:12:14,229 --> 00:12:15,770
How is the brand evolving today?

334
00:12:15,859 --> 00:12:17,900
As my business grows, I feel like you

335
00:12:17,910 --> 00:12:22,130
have to brand differently a little bit.

336
00:12:22,329 --> 00:12:23,910
You know, like I said, I feel like I'm

337
00:12:23,929 --> 00:12:26,350
gearing more towards being a lifestyle.

338
00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:28,490
Brand because a lot of people are like, Oh

339
00:12:28,490 --> 00:12:30,140
my gosh, where do you get your products?

340
00:12:30,140 --> 00:12:31,820
Where do you get your clothing?

341
00:12:32,180 --> 00:12:34,430
And, you know, I've realized

342
00:12:34,450 --> 00:12:36,170
doing this that some people

343
00:12:36,170 --> 00:12:37,240
just don't know where to shop.

344
00:12:37,810 --> 00:12:39,810
People don't know how to find the right

345
00:12:39,810 --> 00:12:42,239
products that is going to work with

346
00:12:42,239 --> 00:12:45,000
their everyday life or that makes sense.

347
00:12:45,349 --> 00:12:48,090
So I think with like the branding

348
00:12:48,090 --> 00:12:51,760
approach, it's really kind of evolving

349
00:12:51,850 --> 00:12:55,580
more towards, I think, kind of like

350
00:12:56,105 --> 00:12:58,315
Elevating your life, if that makes

351
00:12:58,315 --> 00:13:00,955
sense, like more of an elevated

352
00:13:01,095 --> 00:13:04,735
lifestyle, elevated look, elevated space.

353
00:13:04,745 --> 00:13:05,654
So that's kind of where

354
00:13:05,655 --> 00:13:07,954
my brand is going towards.

355
00:13:07,964 --> 00:13:09,624
Like, I think I want to be called

356
00:13:09,624 --> 00:13:12,035
like the elevated queen, you know?

357
00:13:12,095 --> 00:13:14,415
Like, just elevating your life, honey.

358
00:13:14,425 --> 00:13:15,615
Mind, body, and spirit.

359
00:13:15,615 --> 00:13:16,735
Here we come, you know?

360
00:13:16,984 --> 00:13:17,204
Yeah.

361
00:13:17,305 --> 00:13:17,785
I love that.

362
00:13:17,785 --> 00:13:18,724
The elevated queen.

363
00:13:19,535 --> 00:13:19,915
Yes.

364
00:13:19,964 --> 00:13:20,285
All right.

365
00:13:20,295 --> 00:13:22,204
So before we started recording, you

366
00:13:22,204 --> 00:13:23,545
mentioned that you're doing some, I

367
00:13:23,545 --> 00:13:25,704
think, non profit or some philanthropic

368
00:13:27,024 --> 00:13:28,284
work, if I can get my words out.

369
00:13:28,734 --> 00:13:29,385
Tell me about that.

370
00:13:29,385 --> 00:13:29,994
What are you doing?

371
00:13:30,035 --> 00:13:30,484
Yeah.

372
00:13:30,484 --> 00:13:33,335
So with my business, And

373
00:13:33,335 --> 00:13:35,435
just also personally, I am

374
00:13:35,455 --> 00:13:37,314
all about paying it forward.

375
00:13:37,685 --> 00:13:40,935
And just because something you don't

376
00:13:40,944 --> 00:13:43,405
use anymore, or that doesn't give you

377
00:13:43,405 --> 00:13:45,684
joy anymore, doesn't mean that that

378
00:13:45,684 --> 00:13:47,084
can be passed on to someone else.

379
00:13:47,354 --> 00:13:48,574
So I try to reduce, reuse,

380
00:13:48,574 --> 00:13:49,985
recycle as much as possible.

381
00:13:49,994 --> 00:13:54,979
Clothing, Um, Food, Interior,

382
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,750
Furniture, whatever.

383
00:13:56,939 --> 00:13:58,420
So I work with a lot of local

384
00:13:58,420 --> 00:14:00,449
nonprofits here in Knoxville.

385
00:14:00,630 --> 00:14:03,029
Those that, that are very dear to me

386
00:14:03,029 --> 00:14:04,619
that I really work with, and I think

387
00:14:04,619 --> 00:14:06,119
they make a huge difference in people's

388
00:14:06,119 --> 00:14:09,280
lives, is Ladies of Charity, great

389
00:14:09,290 --> 00:14:11,020
organization, as well as CareCuts.

390
00:14:11,359 --> 00:14:14,209
So, they help a lot of people in the

391
00:14:14,209 --> 00:14:16,780
homeless community, oh, and I also

392
00:14:16,780 --> 00:14:19,160
work with, um, some halfway houses.

393
00:14:19,564 --> 00:14:21,245
So help people get, you

394
00:14:21,245 --> 00:14:22,694
know, back on their feet.

395
00:14:22,964 --> 00:14:25,665
So, and also just knowing that I

396
00:14:25,665 --> 00:14:28,495
work with local charities and all of

397
00:14:28,755 --> 00:14:30,454
their stuff is going to be donated.

398
00:14:30,795 --> 00:14:33,025
It helps, I think, trigger something

399
00:14:33,025 --> 00:14:34,485
in the client's mind that's like, oh

400
00:14:34,485 --> 00:14:36,715
wow, like, I don't have to keep this.

401
00:14:36,715 --> 00:14:37,964
I don't have to have this guilt

402
00:14:38,014 --> 00:14:38,895
of getting rid of it because

403
00:14:38,895 --> 00:14:40,465
it's going to help someone else.

404
00:14:41,125 --> 00:14:42,785
So I think that's something that's

405
00:14:42,785 --> 00:14:44,705
a part of my mission that's very

406
00:14:44,705 --> 00:14:46,865
important is just to continue to.

407
00:14:48,350 --> 00:14:51,190
I mean, look at all the, the makeover

408
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:52,470
shows you see where they take like

409
00:14:52,470 --> 00:14:53,880
a homeless person and they clean

410
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,349
them up and get back on their feet

411
00:14:56,349 --> 00:14:57,800
and go out for a job interview.

412
00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:00,600
I mean, just that restyling, that update,

413
00:15:00,610 --> 00:15:02,199
all that stuff makes a big difference.

414
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:02,589
Yeah.

415
00:15:02,589 --> 00:15:03,919
And it's kind of like what I

416
00:15:04,030 --> 00:15:05,839
do, but you know what I mean?

417
00:15:05,839 --> 00:15:07,220
So it's just, I don't know.

418
00:15:07,220 --> 00:15:08,680
I just think it's a beautiful.

419
00:15:08,955 --> 00:15:10,725
Just rendition of what you

420
00:15:10,725 --> 00:15:11,785
can do to change people's

421
00:15:11,785 --> 00:15:13,135
lives in just different ways.

422
00:15:13,295 --> 00:15:14,595
Yeah, it's nice because it's a

423
00:15:14,595 --> 00:15:16,285
natural extension of your business.

424
00:15:16,285 --> 00:15:17,455
Like it's something you're already

425
00:15:17,455 --> 00:15:18,985
doing, you're already in this world,

426
00:15:18,995 --> 00:15:20,535
and then you're helping make sure

427
00:15:20,535 --> 00:15:21,585
that things don't go to waste.

428
00:15:21,594 --> 00:15:21,874
Yeah.

429
00:15:22,415 --> 00:15:24,254
As you, you know, move into becoming a

430
00:15:24,254 --> 00:15:26,034
parent and all that, you're going to find

431
00:15:26,300 --> 00:15:28,180
That kids go through clothing like crazy.

432
00:15:28,620 --> 00:15:30,050
One of the biggest things for our

433
00:15:30,050 --> 00:15:31,610
family has been that people have

434
00:15:31,610 --> 00:15:33,690
just shared clothing with us.

435
00:15:33,690 --> 00:15:35,270
Because it's like, well, our child, you

436
00:15:35,270 --> 00:15:36,470
know, grew out of that in two weeks.

437
00:15:36,890 --> 00:15:39,280
So, now it's ours for a week and a half.

438
00:15:39,309 --> 00:15:40,490
Yeah, yeah.

439
00:15:40,540 --> 00:15:42,760
Until, until it gets used again.

440
00:15:42,769 --> 00:15:43,759
But yeah, that's, that's

441
00:15:43,759 --> 00:15:44,559
really neat to see.

442
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:45,810
And, um, that's really awesome

443
00:15:45,820 --> 00:15:46,400
that you're doing that.

444
00:15:46,439 --> 00:15:47,090
Thank you.

445
00:15:47,130 --> 00:15:47,510
Yeah.

446
00:15:47,540 --> 00:15:48,990
We touched on personal branding

447
00:15:48,990 --> 00:15:50,390
a little bit, personal styling.

448
00:15:50,670 --> 00:15:53,409
What is your philosophy on personal

449
00:15:53,420 --> 00:15:55,040
branding, personal styling?

450
00:15:55,100 --> 00:15:57,080
Or how do the two combine?

451
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,580
Like in my business,

452
00:15:58,580 --> 00:16:00,380
or just my client, or?

453
00:16:00,450 --> 00:16:01,060
Everything.

454
00:16:01,220 --> 00:16:02,930
Your thesis.

455
00:16:03,030 --> 00:16:04,520
Oh my gosh.

456
00:16:04,580 --> 00:16:06,700
Um, I think just being

457
00:16:06,790 --> 00:16:08,470
unapologetically yourself.

458
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,610
And because no one is Kelsey.

459
00:16:12,630 --> 00:16:13,970
No one is Chris.

460
00:16:14,370 --> 00:16:16,580
And I think people need to find

461
00:16:16,580 --> 00:16:17,569
that within themselves, their

462
00:16:17,569 --> 00:16:19,490
individuality and what makes them them.

463
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,800
and run with it because there's

464
00:16:21,830 --> 00:16:23,780
nothing better than a confident

465
00:16:23,780 --> 00:16:25,600
person no matter where you're from,

466
00:16:25,610 --> 00:16:27,430
what you look like, what you have.

467
00:16:28,250 --> 00:16:30,740
So, and I just, I think that's also just

468
00:16:30,740 --> 00:16:32,800
a part of my branding and my business.

469
00:16:32,819 --> 00:16:35,630
I tried to help my clients find that.

470
00:16:35,700 --> 00:16:39,600
Are there any tips for maybe

471
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,290
those listeners out there that

472
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,220
might want some help with personal

473
00:16:43,220 --> 00:16:44,870
branding or personal styling?

474
00:16:45,010 --> 00:16:46,150
Absolutely.

475
00:16:46,190 --> 00:16:49,590
I think finding inspiration is key.

476
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,800
And I mean, you can find that in,

477
00:16:52,180 --> 00:16:54,459
oh my gosh, social media, Pinterest,

478
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,430
you know, I find a lot in Pinterest,

479
00:16:56,460 --> 00:16:58,600
magazines, even celebrities.

480
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,120
You know, I often ask my clients

481
00:17:01,390 --> 00:17:05,395
if they Had an idea of who they

482
00:17:05,395 --> 00:17:07,224
would like to emulate as far as the

483
00:17:07,224 --> 00:17:09,279
celebrity goes, like, who would it be?

484
00:17:10,139 --> 00:17:10,829
What about for you?

485
00:17:11,089 --> 00:17:11,139
Tell me.

486
00:17:11,230 --> 00:17:12,389
That's a great question.

487
00:17:12,399 --> 00:17:14,450
Celebrity I would want to emulate.

488
00:17:14,510 --> 00:17:15,710
Probably Conan O'Brien.

489
00:17:15,710 --> 00:17:16,849
We're talking podcasting.

490
00:17:16,859 --> 00:17:18,450
Like, I love what he's, how he's managed

491
00:17:18,450 --> 00:17:21,700
to go from talk TV to, you know, to that.

492
00:17:21,740 --> 00:17:22,980
I don't know that he has the best style.

493
00:17:22,980 --> 00:17:23,980
So maybe Stephen Colbert.

494
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:24,659
He's more.

495
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:25,869
Oh, yes.

496
00:17:25,890 --> 00:17:28,000
I love him and his personality is like

497
00:17:28,039 --> 00:17:31,500
fun and like quirky, you know, so with

498
00:17:31,510 --> 00:17:33,890
you telling me that it's like, Oh, okay.

499
00:17:33,890 --> 00:17:34,629
So.

500
00:17:35,145 --> 00:17:39,064
I'm thinking we need, you know, like

501
00:17:39,075 --> 00:17:41,754
a really cool, like tailored blazer,

502
00:17:41,895 --> 00:17:43,934
you know, we need some nice denim.

503
00:17:43,945 --> 00:17:46,314
We need a really good crisp button down.

504
00:17:46,654 --> 00:17:48,085
You know, we need some really

505
00:17:48,085 --> 00:17:50,065
good Gucci looking loafers.

506
00:17:50,324 --> 00:17:51,074
You know what I mean?

507
00:17:51,074 --> 00:17:52,174
But you know, adding your

508
00:17:52,174 --> 00:17:54,555
own flair to it, you know.

509
00:17:55,250 --> 00:17:57,810
So just finding inspiration and that,

510
00:17:57,820 --> 00:18:00,100
and it just like makes my head like

511
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:01,899
these wheels spin because I just

512
00:18:01,899 --> 00:18:05,789
love creating and helping people

513
00:18:06,139 --> 00:18:08,070
find pieces that make them feel

514
00:18:08,129 --> 00:18:10,229
good and comfortable and confident.

515
00:18:10,929 --> 00:18:12,059
Yeah, I get that.

516
00:18:12,059 --> 00:18:13,719
I mean, it takes a lot to be comfortable

517
00:18:13,719 --> 00:18:15,330
in your own skin, comfortable in.

518
00:18:15,910 --> 00:18:17,450
the clothes you wear and, you

519
00:18:17,450 --> 00:18:18,700
know, finding clothes that

520
00:18:18,700 --> 00:18:19,820
fit and make sense for you.

521
00:18:19,820 --> 00:18:21,700
I think the biggest challenge though

522
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,210
that my clients have is just finding

523
00:18:24,220 --> 00:18:26,330
like an everyday outfit and I've

524
00:18:26,330 --> 00:18:29,510
realized capsule wardrobing has been

525
00:18:29,780 --> 00:18:32,190
very key in helping me with my clients.

526
00:18:32,210 --> 00:18:32,490
What is that?

527
00:18:32,940 --> 00:18:34,389
So capsule wardrobing is where

528
00:18:34,389 --> 00:18:37,139
you have just some of the basics.

529
00:18:37,399 --> 00:18:40,110
So your basic T shirt, white,

530
00:18:40,110 --> 00:18:43,000
black, gray, basic denim, basic

531
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,740
boot, black boot, Chelsea boot,

532
00:18:44,930 --> 00:18:46,560
you know, just having the checklist

533
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,420
so then you can interchange those.

534
00:18:48,790 --> 00:18:49,629
It makes it easier so you

535
00:18:49,629 --> 00:18:50,699
don't have to think about it.

536
00:18:51,019 --> 00:18:51,849
That makes a lot of sense.

537
00:18:51,870 --> 00:18:54,149
I am not a fashion forward person.

538
00:18:54,150 --> 00:18:55,549
Oh,

539
00:18:55,549 --> 00:18:56,820
I will help you anytime.

540
00:18:57,209 --> 00:18:58,549
Okay, I might be calling

541
00:18:58,549 --> 00:18:59,259
you up after this.

542
00:19:00,459 --> 00:19:01,149
Love it.

543
00:19:01,249 --> 00:19:01,870
Well, very cool.

544
00:19:01,870 --> 00:19:03,489
So what, what is the next

545
00:19:03,519 --> 00:19:05,179
evolution of Klosets by Kelsey?

546
00:19:05,179 --> 00:19:07,059
What's coming next for your business?

547
00:19:07,120 --> 00:19:10,149
Yeah, so in May, I'm actually going to

548
00:19:10,149 --> 00:19:15,000
be launching a virtual course, a service.

549
00:19:15,259 --> 00:19:18,530
So I am really excited.

550
00:19:18,530 --> 00:19:19,860
It's gonna be super fun.

551
00:19:20,120 --> 00:19:22,199
So basically, we're going to be

552
00:19:22,199 --> 00:19:24,470
just starting with your closet.

553
00:19:24,579 --> 00:19:26,500
And sometimes it's really hard for

554
00:19:26,510 --> 00:19:28,090
people to start with just because

555
00:19:28,429 --> 00:19:30,040
I try to tell my clients to start

556
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,800
small, start with a place that doesn't

557
00:19:32,810 --> 00:19:34,290
have a lot of sentimental value.

558
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,060
So, I think the first week we will

559
00:19:37,060 --> 00:19:39,570
do probably like a junk drawer, just

560
00:19:39,570 --> 00:19:41,500
to kind of like get your toe in the

561
00:19:41,500 --> 00:19:43,400
water and go through the process

562
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,230
a little bit and how that works.

563
00:19:45,700 --> 00:19:48,169
And, yeah, I'm really excited.

564
00:19:48,170 --> 00:19:50,720
So, I'm hoping the virtual aspect will

565
00:19:50,750 --> 00:19:52,249
kind of help me connect with people

566
00:19:52,250 --> 00:19:55,237
outside of Knoxville and maybe just

567
00:19:55,237 --> 00:19:57,232
also introduce my business, myself,

568
00:19:57,232 --> 00:19:59,190
my brand to new potential clients.

569
00:19:59,210 --> 00:20:00,280
Even though it's virtual, maybe

570
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:01,450
they might have me in their home.

571
00:20:01,729 --> 00:20:03,695
Um, Yeah, and I think it's just another

572
00:20:03,695 --> 00:20:05,695
great way for me to get feedback about

573
00:20:05,945 --> 00:20:08,495
my business and how to improve it and

574
00:20:08,505 --> 00:20:10,315
what clients want and what they need.

575
00:20:10,494 --> 00:20:11,935
And I mean that's, that's a need.

576
00:20:11,935 --> 00:20:13,744
There's people all over that aren't

577
00:20:13,744 --> 00:20:15,764
necessarily in Knoxville or maybe can't

578
00:20:15,764 --> 00:20:17,134
get out of their home for one reason or

579
00:20:17,135 --> 00:20:19,444
another and having that ability to have

580
00:20:19,445 --> 00:20:20,774
you come and help is really awesome.

581
00:20:20,775 --> 00:20:23,035
Yeah, I, I'm very excited about

582
00:20:23,035 --> 00:20:25,235
it and I think another Aspect of

583
00:20:25,235 --> 00:20:28,605
it is people get a little insecure

584
00:20:28,605 --> 00:20:30,985
about their space or embarrassed.

585
00:20:31,215 --> 00:20:32,735
So sometimes, I mean, it's hard

586
00:20:32,775 --> 00:20:33,994
when a stranger comes into your

587
00:20:33,994 --> 00:20:35,624
home and goes through your things.

588
00:20:35,895 --> 00:20:38,785
So I'm hoping like this can help them,

589
00:20:38,824 --> 00:20:40,174
I think, feel a little bit, a little bit

590
00:20:40,175 --> 00:20:43,040
more comfortable as well, because You

591
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,060
know, my clients, whenever I work with

592
00:20:45,060 --> 00:20:47,380
them, they go through their things so

593
00:20:47,380 --> 00:20:48,680
much easier, but it's just because they

594
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,690
have a helping hand, like a guiding voice.

595
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,330
So, hopefully, just virtually, I

596
00:20:53,330 --> 00:20:55,960
can also do that for my clients.

597
00:20:56,120 --> 00:20:57,839
One of my last questions, and I always

598
00:20:57,839 --> 00:20:59,699
like to ask this on the podcast, is

599
00:20:59,750 --> 00:21:02,360
what brand, and you being in fashion

600
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:03,330
and all this, I'm sure you're gonna

601
00:21:03,330 --> 00:21:04,699
have a very interesting answer.

602
00:21:04,730 --> 00:21:05,929
What brand would you say is the

603
00:21:05,929 --> 00:21:07,639
brand you most admire right now?

604
00:21:08,010 --> 00:21:10,440
You know, that is so hard.

605
00:21:11,595 --> 00:21:14,045
I've been thinking about it a lot because

606
00:21:14,125 --> 00:21:18,665
I absolutely adore clothing and brands.

607
00:21:18,714 --> 00:21:22,175
But I would say currently and in my

608
00:21:22,175 --> 00:21:25,274
state that I'm in, my pregnancy, I

609
00:21:25,274 --> 00:21:28,685
would definitely say The Gap because

610
00:21:28,895 --> 00:21:31,665
they have great basics and they are

611
00:21:31,665 --> 00:21:35,615
maternity friendly as well as free people.

612
00:21:35,645 --> 00:21:37,575
Oh my gosh, I mean their flowy

613
00:21:37,575 --> 00:21:40,725
dresses, are amazing and they

614
00:21:40,725 --> 00:21:43,305
have these like spandex rompers.

615
00:21:43,585 --> 00:21:45,735
So I would say yeah, Free People

616
00:21:45,805 --> 00:21:47,974
and Gap currently because that is

617
00:21:47,974 --> 00:21:49,905
what's currently fitting my body

618
00:21:49,905 --> 00:21:51,515
type that I'm getting used to.

619
00:21:54,164 --> 00:21:54,564
Yeah.

620
00:21:54,664 --> 00:21:55,654
All part of the process.

621
00:21:55,684 --> 00:21:56,324
Yes.

622
00:21:56,364 --> 00:21:58,575
Gap's a brand I've liked for a while.

623
00:21:59,070 --> 00:22:00,420
for clothes and stuff and,

624
00:22:00,430 --> 00:22:01,790
um, I think they're tied to

625
00:22:01,790 --> 00:22:02,710
Banana Republic, aren't they?

626
00:22:03,170 --> 00:22:04,450
Yeah, they're under the same umbrella.

627
00:22:04,460 --> 00:22:04,980
Yeah, and I

628
00:22:04,990 --> 00:22:06,370
have fallen in love with Banana

629
00:22:06,370 --> 00:22:08,110
Republic jeans, so that's

630
00:22:08,129 --> 00:22:09,680
Yeah, it's good quality stuff.

631
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:09,970
Yeah,

632
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:10,390
yeah.

633
00:22:10,439 --> 00:22:12,020
Yeah, I'm sad they took, took out,

634
00:22:12,069 --> 00:22:13,450
took the one out of the mall, though.

635
00:22:13,609 --> 00:22:14,179
Absurd.

636
00:22:14,210 --> 00:22:14,550
Yeah.

637
00:22:14,599 --> 00:22:16,640
Yeah, I don't understand the logic.

638
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,809
Totally awful decision, but whatever.

639
00:22:18,909 --> 00:22:20,790
They made it and, uh, yeah, we

640
00:22:20,790 --> 00:22:22,140
have to buy online now, I guess.

641
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:23,330
I mean, that's the thing.

642
00:22:23,330 --> 00:22:26,165
Like, maternity, it is Absolutely a

643
00:22:26,165 --> 00:22:28,745
tragedy when I see some maternity things,

644
00:22:28,774 --> 00:22:30,544
I'm like, we do not want to dress like

645
00:22:30,544 --> 00:22:33,155
that, you know, so I've had to venture

646
00:22:33,155 --> 00:22:35,394
online and, you know, people think just

647
00:22:35,395 --> 00:22:36,915
because I love clothes and love shopping

648
00:22:36,915 --> 00:22:39,995
that I like online shopping, I'm very much

649
00:22:39,995 --> 00:22:42,654
like a touch, feel, try on type of person,

650
00:22:42,675 --> 00:22:44,919
you know, so that's been, that's been, you

651
00:22:44,919 --> 00:22:46,205
know, a little bit of a change, but yeah.

652
00:22:47,304 --> 00:22:47,665
Whatever.

653
00:22:47,665 --> 00:22:48,114
It's fine.

654
00:22:48,504 --> 00:22:49,374
Well, Kelsey, thank you

Uh, before we go, I wanna make sure

657
00:22:51,895 --> 00:22:53,334
that you get a chance to promote

658
00:22:53,334 --> 00:22:54,864
anything that you want to promote.

659
00:22:54,864 --> 00:22:56,334
So tell us, I think your

660
00:22:56,395 --> 00:22:58,254
new online course Yes.

661
00:22:58,254 --> 00:22:59,304
Is what we wanna talk about.

662
00:22:59,304 --> 00:23:00,534
But if there's anything else,

663
00:23:00,534 --> 00:23:01,554
and of course social media,

664
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:02,725

know, a little tagline.

671
00:23:16,110 --> 00:23:17,320

You have such a good podcast voice.

I'm going to listen to this and be like,

Perfect.

692
00:23:44,844 --> 00:23:46,024
Thank the Lord for editing.

693
00:23:46,064 --> 00:23:46,514
Okay, great.

That's what we do.

695
00:23:47,185 --> 00:23:47,534
All right.

696

Yay.

Thank you.

699
00:23:49,475 --> 00:23:49,945
So fun.
