Meeting fans of the show/SF Bay Area events?
All three of you are so open and vulnerable in talking about very personal things on the podcast. That's great, and your listeners really get to know you. Is it ever weird or awkward to meet fans who know so much about you? Also, lots of SF Bay Area folks on these AMAs; when's the next Bay Area event? (The Bay Area Classic basketball game?) [In other words: how do we become BFFs in real life? 😉 Haha. I extend an invitation to all of you, especially Mel, for noodles at Chong Xing Noodle House in Alameda 😋🍜)
Wardrobe refresh
Hi ladies! I wanted to know where you guys shop for clothes. All of your styles are so cute! I’m a 37 year old mommy but don’t want to dress like a ‘mommy’. My main style is I’m down for a good quality tshirt and jeans but scared to pull off anything else. Help your girl out. Love yall!
Thoughts on Mortgage Payoff vs. Investing
Hi ABG, Wanted to know your thoughts on if you think it is smart to pay down the Mortgage (in chunks and still have savings) as compared to renting out a property or owning a second one at the same time. I am locked in at a fixed 3.625% rate since 2019. Or would you use the funds to invest? I just am not knowledgable on investing. How would you balance that and what are the pro's and cons? The intention is to drive down Debt, and have a peace of mind that the Mortgage is paid off, but if the property is rented out, the risks are the tenant may not taking care of it well, and the profit is very small because pretty much some of that income would go towards mortgage payment and finding an affordable second place to live in while renting the first one. Best :) Raheel
Passion Project Paralysis
Hi again ladies, as business owners who have built your multimedia platform in various successful ways, how do you reckon with ideas for multiple projects as they crop up? I notice I'm feeling pulled in different directions for ways in which I want to develop my own business pursuits, whether it be writing a book, starting a podcast, or doing more speaking engagements. I am eager to start on all of it but realize it's not realistic to have bandwidth (or the funds) for them all at once either. I would love your advice on how you harness your creativity in a productive but sustainable way.
