00:00What is one word or adjective that describes how you're wired, how you're made?
00:05How I'm wired is I'm very much, I would say the first thing that came to mind and I'll explain
00:17was silent but deadly. Because I am very much an observer. I like to listen and to
00:24understand the whole person. Who am I talking to? Who are the people that I'm in this room
00:32in? Who am I allowing a seat at the table versus what do I need to build from and grow
00:37into? And those are things that you don't really grasp by talking all the time or trying
00:45to dominate something that you don't even know what you're trying to do. And for me,
00:50I really just like to sit back, understand, take in as much information as possible. So
00:56when I am ready to go, I am ready to go. I know exactly what I want to do, the strategies
01:01that I want to take, the creative direction I want to go in. So I can sit on these meetings
01:06and talking to the people that I need to talk to to get my full thought out and know exactly
01:14the type of person you are and how you're going to respond or the way I need to talk to you
01:20about certain things and understanding your full perspective before I jump into what I'm
01:24about to give you. So yeah, that is probably something that I would say in terms of how my
01:32brain is wired.
