42
I am a surgeon and I have my own practice.
43
What's your best advice for someone right now who's going through the school and kind of struggling to get through it.
44
There's hard work that needs to be done now to feel the way you want to feel now later.
45
So, you know, it's okay to delay that gratification.
46
What did you sacrifice?
47
Going out with my friends, party.
48
You got to hustle, right?
49
You got to put in your time before you get to walk down the street and on Rodeo.
50
I have to know really quickly, what's the biggest challenge you're facing so far right now, building a business like this?
51
I think it's a lot, just, you know, as a woman, imposter syndrome, kind of believing in yourself, being in a man's world and putting yourself out there.
52
Did anyone not take you seriously?
53
Yeah, all the time yeah
54
and what happened i think you earn a place at the table by showing people you belong right
55
so you show them what you can do
56
and the more times you show up the more likely someone
57
is to say yes that's beautiful i have to know how
58
are you implementing ai right now in your business i think it makes us more efficient
59
and i think it makes us better physicians i'm looking forward to seeing where it goes
60
so you're pro ai right now yeah i think
61
so yeah interesting do you think a lot of business owners
62
if they're not implementing ai are going to be left behind yeah i think
63
so i mean when you look at what the big colleges and universities are training the next generation to do, it's to become people managers that use AI.
64
So all these new majors at MIT and Stanford, they're not focusing on creating AI anymore.
65
The technology exists.
66
Now it's going to be the people who know how to implement it
67
and manage teams and make it work to their benefit are the people that are going to be recruitable.
68
Did you hear that?
69
She made her first million at 41 years old.
70
That tells us it doesn't matter what age you are, you could still hit that million dollar mark.
71
The The best part is she's also a mother and she's able to balance it all.
72
Let's go find someone else.
73
Excuse me, ma 'am.
74
Quick question for you.
75
How old were you when you became a millionaire?
76
I think 26.
77
What do you do for a living?

80
My husband is a plastic surgeon and I run the clinic.
81
No way.
82
So this is the husband and wife whole business.
83
That's amazing.
84
What's the best piece of advice you can give to someone who wants to start a business with their husband?
85
With their husband specifically, I mean, choose your battles, work together, and just work hard.
86
What's the biggest challenge you've faced so far building this with your husband?
87
I would say just working through other people and being strategic and just being savvy with the investments.
88
Why do you say that?
89
You can make a lot more money in the investments than in the business itself
90
so you have to be very smart with where you put the money.
91
Interesting, so if there's someone right now who wants to start investing their money in 2026, what exactly, where exactly should they start investing their money?
92
Depends on how much they have they can start small they
93
can do like investment accounts with a broker they can also
94
do real estate i would love to know what's the most
95
amount money you've made in a single year a couple million a couple million
96
and you said you did this at 26 yeah so
97
if there's a woman right now who maybe wants to start her own business
98
but maybe she's too afraid what would you tell her join forces with people around yourself with smart people
99
that are doing things and see how you could work together with them don't be
100
so scared to go into business with other people
101
or go into business with your spouse just be open -minded to
102
that and follow the people that are doing it because it's happening all around us.
103
What's the dynamic between you and your husband when you guys go to work and then especially when you come home?
104
I mean he's with patients all day long I'm managing the front end of everything
105
so oddly we sometimes won't see each other in the whole day.
106
Because you manage
107
so many people what's your best advice about management I would say high support high expectations everyone has pros
108
and cons and figuring out where you can best utilize people
109
and where their talents shine have you ever had to fire anyone all the time what's your advice on that
110
because fire people is kind of for a lot of people
111
it's kind of scary it's hard for them don't make it personal I fired people who I adore
112
and love and at a personal level I would be their best friend I just think
113
when it comes to setting the environment up
114
and the culture up certain people are not a good fit
115
so set them free i love stopping women
116
that builds businesses with their husband my favorite answer from her was actually

129
They're critical to it.
130

159
do you do i own the beverly hills estate how'd you get into

that it's a real estate firm in beverly hills we represent all the high -end luxury homes in Beverly Hills
161
and surrounding areas.
162
What's the most money you've made in a single year?
163
Oh I can't say that.
164
You can give me a range if you want.
165
Six to seven figures?
166
Yeah.
167
So tell me how are you able to hit that million -dollar mark with this?
168
Well I've been in the business 20 years
169
and I think it's just one of those things where you find what you love and you just perfect it.
170
You just keep working hard and showing up every day.
171
What type of risk did you take?
172
Lots of risk.
173
No risk no reward.
174
Were you ever afraid to fail?
175
No, I think there's no such thing as failure, only lessons.
176
You know, being a woman in any business is still not completely fair.
177
It's like we have to work harder and smarter than men.
178
Didn't a lot of people not take you seriously?
179
Yes, especially I got in the business when I was very young.
180
So when you're younger and you're a woman, both of those make it a little bit more difficult to be taken seriously.
181
But you just keep working hard, being professional, being an expert at what you do and learning all the facets of your business.
182
What do you think is the biggest thing holding women back right now in entrepreneurship?
183
Looking for a shortcut or an easy way out.
184
You took the hard way?
185
Yeah, from the bottom to the top.
186
Do you have any mentors?
187
Always had mentors and I still have mentors and I really believe in mentorship.
188
I think finding people that have done it the way
189
that you would like to do it and just seeing
190
if you can get them to talk to you
191
or like how you stopped me here just trying to get in front of people.
192
And did you ever deal with imposter syndrome?
193
Yes, I think when I was younger probably
194
and I think it's just one of those things where the more you deepen yourself
195
and get to know yourself the better you'll be at your craft or career.
196
You also have to do some some internal you know healing and work on yourself.
197
Are you a mother?
198
I'm a mother of two, yes.
199
How do you balance everything all at once?
200
I don't balance very well but you know I juggle.
201
I do the best I can.
202
So you believe that woman can have it all though?
203
You can have it all.
204
You can't do it all but you can have it all
205
and you can delegate and you can have great people around you and that's what I do.
206
How do you find the right people for the right places for you in your business?
207
For me it took a lot of years to get the right employees
208
and staff around and when you have reciprocity with your employees
209
and they're learning from you and you're giving them and then they're giving you and you're feeding the relationship, it doesn't feel so one -sided.
210
I think that really helps.
211
Exactly.
212
It's about building them too.
213
Building them as well.
214
I have to run.
215
One more question.
216
If there's a woman out there that you want to leave a message to all the young women right now, what would it be?
217
Follow your dreams, follow your heart, and remember that
218
if men can do it you can do it too guys
219
i cannot believe we stopped someone who owns beverly hills real estates

221
that she kept saying how she was not taken seriously
222

224

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
