In this video, Phyllis shares her insights on the importance of having a good idea that is both obvious and cool, and how this can lead to a successful business. Drawing from her personal experience of running a business, she stresses the importance of personal branding and authenticity, which she believes are critical in endorsing a business. She provides guidance on how to establish a twoword brand that accurately represents one's true self.
Phyllis also touches on the topic of codeswitching, where individuals change their behavior or language to fit into different social settings, and advises against it. Instead, she encourages people to show up as their best selves, which will attract likeminded people who appreciate and value authenticity.
The speaker also emphasizes the importance of respecting the rules of the house in different cultures.
