00:00:00.833 --> 00:00:05.339
Back by popular demand, it's me, China Doll.

00:00:05.339 --> 00:00:09.045
And this time, I brought my girl Rochelle with me.

00:00:09.045 --> 00:00:12.771
Master Silk is handling high-stakes business across the pond.

00:00:12.771 --> 00:00:14.053
But don't trip.

00:00:14.053 --> 00:00:17.056
The legacy he built is still alive and loud.

00:00:17.056 --> 00:00:18.638

00:00:28.871 --> 00:00:30.013
We see you.

00:00:30.013 --> 00:00:31.394
Welcome back.

00:00:31.394 --> 00:00:35.118
As you know, I'm holding it down while Silk is out the country.

00:00:35.118 --> 00:00:41.725
And with me today is a woman I've known for over 20 years, Rochelle, also known as Lucky.

00:00:41.725 --> 00:00:48.792
Now don't let the beauty fool you, she's seen the blade, walked the fire, and now she's out here buying property and building teams.

00:00:49.374 --> 00:00:50.134
Thank you, sis.

00:00:50.134 --> 00:00:52.156
Listen, I was a dancer.

00:00:52.156 --> 00:00:52.838
I was...

00:00:52.838 --> 00:00:54.518
An escort.

00:00:54.518 --> 00:00:56.100
I was a blade runner.

00:00:56.100 --> 00:00:57.963
I thought I had it all figured out.

00:00:57.963 --> 00:01:00.146
I was making cash money every day.

00:01:00.146 --> 00:01:04.311
But, to be honest, I had nothing to show for it.

00:01:04.311 --> 00:01:07.775
A few trinkets, maybe some clothes and shoes.

00:01:07.775 --> 00:01:08.856
Don't get me wrong.

00:01:08.856 --> 00:01:11.459
I looked like I had it all worked out.

00:01:11.459 --> 00:01:14.503
That is, until we chose Silk.

00:01:14.503 --> 00:01:22.112
And he sat me down and showed me what real game, guidance, and leadership looked like.

00:01:22.112 --> 00:01:27.897
Now, I own my own, now I own a boutique and a logistics company.

00:01:27.897 --> 00:01:29.218
All legit, and it's all mine.

00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:32.965
That's why I had to bring you on today.

00:01:32.965 --> 00:01:41.039
We get a lot of questions from women in the game, from women out the game, and from women trying to find their way once they left the game.

00:01:41.039 --> 00:01:45.506
So, we gon' pull some coats today, and do it like Silk taught us.

00:01:45.506 --> 00:01:49.251
We're gonna do it raw, real, and with love.

00:01:49.251 --> 00:01:50.114
Let's get it.

00:01:50.114 --> 00:01:53.078
First up, we've got Hannah from New York.

00:01:53.078 --> 00:01:58.128
She says, I'm going to ask the question that everybody wants to know.

00:01:58.128 --> 00:02:01.072
Does Silk still have girls choose him?

00:02:01.072 --> 00:02:03.638
And does he still send girls?

00:02:03.638 --> 00:02:09.229
Well, right off the get-go, Lucky, you want to take this

00:02:10.151 --> 00:02:11.713
Thanks for throwing me under the bus.

00:02:11.713 --> 00:02:14.604
Well, Hannah, let me put it like this.

00:02:14.604 --> 00:02:16.885
I never discuss another person's business.

00:02:16.885 --> 00:02:19.829
I'd rather you contact him directly for that answer.

00:02:19.829 --> 00:02:26.014
Just send him an email and put, for Silk's eyes only, in the subject line.

00:02:26.014 --> 00:02:30.979
This way, he'll know it's not meant for the podcast, just him.

00:02:31.500 --> 00:02:32.420
I was stumped on that one.

00:02:32.420 --> 00:02:35.984
I was like, should I or shouldn't I?

00:02:35.984 --> 00:02:37.765
Okay, moving on.

00:02:37.765 --> 00:02:40.147
Next, we got Alicia from Korea.

00:02:40.147 --> 00:02:41.550
She says...

00:02:41.550 --> 00:02:46.862
I left the escort life two years ago, but feel like people still define me by it.

00:02:46.862 --> 00:02:49.705
Any advice on how to rebuild my image?

00:02:49.746 --> 00:02:53.229
First, you have to own your truth.

00:02:53.229 --> 00:02:56.252
People are gonna whisper whether you broke or ballin'.

00:02:56.252 --> 00:02:59.917
What matters is how you carry it.

00:02:59.917 --> 00:03:05.181
When I opened my first shop, folks remembered the dancer, not the boss.

00:03:05.181 --> 00:03:11.501
I didn't argue, I remember I had a customer say, Weren't you that girl from Club Eclipse?

00:03:11.501 --> 00:03:14.305
I smiled and said, yes.

00:03:14.305 --> 00:03:16.788
And now I own this store.

00:03:16.788 --> 00:03:18.629
Eventually they stopped asking.

00:03:18.629 --> 00:03:21.574
Time and receipts will do the talking.

00:03:22.534 --> 00:03:22.995
Period.

00:03:22.995 --> 00:03:28.723
I tell them all the time, you can't be ashamed of your past if it paid your future.

00:03:28.723 --> 00:03:30.764
My first beauty studio?

00:03:30.764 --> 00:03:35.163
I funded it with money I saved while still working at the club.

00:03:35.163 --> 00:03:38.907
Silk made sure we weren't just spending on shoes and bags.

00:03:38.907 --> 00:03:44.496
He used to say, if you gon' be in the game, at least treat it like a business.

00:03:46.118 --> 00:03:49.883
Now we got DeAndre from Memphis.

00:03:49.883 --> 00:03:53.088
He says, I'm dating a woman who used to dance.

00:03:53.088 --> 00:03:57.134
I respect her grind, but I'm nervous introducing her to my mom.

00:03:57.134 --> 00:03:58.396
What should I do?

00:03:58.437 --> 00:04:01.722
Are you a grown-ass man or a mama's boy?

00:04:01.722 --> 00:04:06.156
Because you can't say you respect her if you're ashamed to show her off.

00:04:06.156 --> 00:04:14.306
I dated a guy who made me feel like I was good enough to sleep with and spend my money, but not good enough to bring to his church.

00:04:14.306 --> 00:04:16.310
I bounced.

00:04:16.310 --> 00:04:18.252
Respect starts with exposure.

00:04:18.252 --> 00:04:22.519
If you're ashamed of who she was, then you don't deserve who she's become.

00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:27.625
As Silk always says, you got your hat, get your coat, and agitate the gravel.

00:04:27.625 --> 00:04:30.389
Because you don't deserve her...

00:04:30.389 --> 00:04:31.684
or her love.

00:04:31.684 --> 00:04:34.028
She ain't a damn secret.

00:04:34.028 --> 00:04:37.896
Like me and Lucky, she's the fucking success story.

00:04:38.516 --> 00:04:41.103
This one from Giovanna in Serbia.

00:04:41.103 --> 00:04:46.353
She writes, I want to start a beauty business, but I have no formal education.

00:04:46.353 --> 00:04:47.956
Is that even possible?

00:04:47.956 --> 00:04:50.502
Education is great.

00:04:50.502 --> 00:04:52.966
Built a whole enterprise off hustle.

00:04:52.966 --> 00:04:55.148
Good credit and mentorship.

00:04:55.148 --> 00:04:59.812
When I started my courier business, I didn't know a damn thing about logistics.

00:04:59.812 --> 00:05:05.317
Silk connected me with a retired trucker who taught me everything over hot wings and beer.

00:05:05.317 --> 00:05:06.639
Start small.

00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:08.440
Learn daily.

00:05:08.440 --> 00:05:12.564
And get yourself a mentor or business coach.

00:05:12.564 --> 00:05:14.466
Knowledge ain't just in books.

00:05:14.466 --> 00:05:16.509
It's in experience.

00:05:17.168 --> 00:05:17.649
Giovanna.

00:05:17.649 --> 00:05:21.382
I opened my last studio before I ever went to esthetician school.

00:05:21.382 --> 00:05:29.793
I learned on YouTube, practiced on mannequins, then reinvested my first $1,000 profit into real training.

00:05:29.793 --> 00:05:32.358
If you wait to feel ready, you'll never start.

00:05:32.358 --> 00:05:34.922
Next up, Kevin from New Jersey.

00:05:34.922 --> 00:05:38.086
Why do y'all women say loyalty matters more than love?

00:05:38.086 --> 00:05:40.889
Kevin, love is a feeling.

00:05:40.889 --> 00:05:43.293
Loyalty is an action.

00:05:43.293 --> 00:05:46.598
People can love you and still betray you.

00:05:46.598 --> 00:05:49.934
Loyalty says I got your back, even when love

00:05:51.055 --> 00:05:56.262
I had a man say he loved me while putting me in harm's way every night for his benefit.

00:05:56.262 --> 00:06:01.490
He'd smile in my face, but he'd leave me hanging when it mattered most.

00:06:01.490 --> 00:06:13.728
Meanwhile, I had another man, a homeboy from back in my early days, who loaned me $5,000 with no questions asked when my mom got sick.

00:06:13.728 --> 00:06:14.750
Like...

00:06:14.750 --> 00:06:16.146
Never said he loved me.

00:06:16.146 --> 00:06:17.968
Never tried to sleep with me.

00:06:17.968 --> 00:06:20.913
Just showed up and did what needed to be done.

00:06:20.913 --> 00:06:23.394
That's loyalty.

00:06:23.394 --> 00:06:23.795
it's rare That's who I keep close.

00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:29.101
Now we got Brielle from Atlanta.

00:06:29.101 --> 00:06:32.545
How did y'all go from stripping to stock portfolios?

00:06:32.545 --> 00:06:36.050
It sounds like a broken record, but it was all silk.

00:06:36.050 --> 00:06:38.132
He made us save.

00:06:38.132 --> 00:06:42.216
Then he would match our money, dollar for dollar.

00:06:42.216 --> 00:06:48.466
He sat us down and taught us how to read contracts, invest and rate, flip property.

00:06:48.466 --> 00:06:56.437
I remember him telling me, baby girl, your looks can open the door, but your paperwork keeps you in the building.

00:06:56.437 --> 00:06:58.701
I didn't even know what equity was.

00:06:58.701 --> 00:07:02.266
Now I'm teaching my nieces and any woman that wants to move up

00:07:34.689 --> 00:07:35.250
That’s all facts. Silk had me sitting in meetings with bankers and lawyers when I was still doing makeup backstage. He taught me how to negotiate my first lease. I still got the folder labeled “Silk School” — with all the business plans and budgets we wrote. It wasn’t just about getting out the game — it was about getting ahead of it.Next is Maritza from San Diego. “Is it possible to forgive a man who cheated on you while you were pregnant?

00:07:34.699 --> 00:07:37.012
Maritza, you can forgive.

00:07:37.012 --> 00:07:38.615
You don't have to stay.

00:07:38.615 --> 00:07:42.422
Girl, that question alone is everything.

00:07:42.422 --> 00:07:44.845
I had a similar situation.

00:07:44.845 --> 00:07:48.930
He told me he cheated because he was stressed about becoming a dad.

00:07:48.930 --> 00:07:53.137
Like, my swollen feet and sleepless nights didn't count.

00:07:53.137 --> 00:07:55.982
I forgave him for me not to keep him.

00:07:55.982 --> 00:07:57.124
That freedom?

00:07:57.124 --> 00:07:58.185
Priceless.

00:07:58.185 --> 00:08:03.252
And now, my son sees his mama thriving, respected, and not settling.

00:08:03.252 --> 00:08:06.392
I left mine and rebuilt with peace.

00:08:06.392 --> 00:08:09.398
Never confuse healing with holding on.

00:08:09.398 --> 00:08:15.266
I had to look in the mirror and ask, do I want to raise a child watching me accept this?

00:08:15.266 --> 00:08:17.391
We've got a few more left.

00:08:17.391 --> 00:08:22.639
If you are picking up what we're putting down, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe.

00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:25.603
Be sure to share this with anyone you feel may need it.

00:08:25.603 --> 00:08:29.189
Okay, next up we have Luca from Italy.

00:08:29.189 --> 00:08:35.606
He asks, is it true that that the game still follows you, no matter how far you run.

00:08:35.606 --> 00:08:39.673
First off, Luka, why run from it?

00:08:39.673 --> 00:08:42.277
The world is the game.

00:08:42.277 --> 00:08:45.522
You can't get through life without having some game about you.

00:08:45.522 --> 00:08:48.886
Accept the game is what keeps the world turning.

00:08:48.886 --> 00:08:53.774
Either you learn to navigate and use the game or spend the rest of your life being a Mark

00:08:54.556 --> 00:09:00.845
Exactly, Silk always said, if you tell your own story, nobody can use it against you.

00:09:01.985 --> 00:09:05.068
Sorry, y'all, but Lucky's mic is acting up.

00:09:05.068 --> 00:09:06.710
Hopefully, we'll get her back.

00:09:06.710 --> 00:09:08.772
This one's from Joy in Chicago.

00:09:08.772 --> 00:09:12.216
How do I stop letting men use me financially?

00:09:12.216 --> 00:09:17.200
Well, Joy, by closing your legs and your wallet.

00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:19.282
Then open your eyes.

00:09:19.282 --> 00:09:24.447
If you feel like a sponsor and not a partner, you already know what time it is.

00:09:24.447 --> 00:09:25.948
Ask yourself this.

00:09:25.948 --> 00:09:28.390
Would he give a shit if you had nothing?

00:09:28.390 --> 00:09:31.433
Or is his love only transactional?

00:09:31.433 --> 00:09:34.424
Here's one from Miguel in El Paso.

00:09:34.424 --> 00:09:37.207
Why do successful women intimidate men?

00:09:37.207 --> 00:09:40.371
Insecure men fear what they can't control.

00:09:40.371 --> 00:09:43.797
Real men, we celebrate it.

00:09:43.797 --> 00:09:47.480
Silk never flinched when I said I wanted to own five businesses, he said.

00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:49.283
Why not make it six?

00:09:49.283 --> 00:09:52.126
That man build bosses, not puppets.

00:09:52.126 --> 00:09:56.513
All of his girls left with a portfolio, retirement fund and property.

00:09:56.513 --> 00:10:00.278
Just because you can piss standing up, don't make you a man.

00:10:00.278 --> 00:10:02.288
It makes you male.

00:10:02.288 --> 00:10:07.196
If you can't see what a woman is worth to you as a partner, you may as well stay single.

00:10:07.196 --> 00:10:09.220
We all don't want what you have.

00:10:09.220 --> 00:10:15.049
Some of us already have it and looking for someone to share it with so that we both can rise up.

00:10:15.049 --> 00:10:19.517
This one isn't a question, but I'm the man included because it made me smile.

00:10:19.517 --> 00:10:22.638
Here's a really big shout out to Brian A.

00:10:22.638 --> 00:10:27.504
from Miami, Florida, who sent us a selfie of him rocking the hoodie he received from us.

00:10:27.504 --> 00:10:32.873
Brian says, thanks to Silk's advice, I finally started my landscaping business.

00:10:32.873 --> 00:10:37.721
Using Silk's method, I already have four bona fide contracts.

00:10:37.721 --> 00:10:42.948
Brian, we see you, but stay grinding and rock that hoodie with pride.

00:10:42.948 --> 00:10:45.932
Here's your Coat Pull of the Week.

00:10:45.932 --> 00:10:52.729
If you want to know who really believes in you, watch who claps when you win and who disappears when you fail.

00:10:52.729 --> 00:10:57.534
Your past can explain you, but it should never define you.

00:10:57.534 --> 00:11:00.618
Every chapter ain't meant to be re-read.

00:11:00.618 --> 00:11:05.364
Before we close out, we got to show love to a few folks who've been riding with us heavy.

00:11:05.364 --> 00:11:07.566
Big salute to Keisha B.

00:11:07.566 --> 00:11:08.287
from Detroit.

00:11:08.287 --> 00:11:10.490
She said our last episode...

00:11:10.490 --> 00:11:16.817
gave her the push she needed to walk out that toxic salon job and finally open her own lash suite.

00:11:16.817 --> 00:11:19.802
Sis, you did that.

00:11:19.802 --> 00:11:21.705
And shout out to Tony in London.

00:11:21.705 --> 00:11:27.273
He's been sharing the podcast every week on his IG stories and even sent in a question for next time.

00:11:27.273 --> 00:11:28.193
We see you.

00:11:28.193 --> 00:11:35.062
Oh, and major love to Miss J from Houston, who donated three podcast hoodies to women at a halfway house.

00:11:35.062 --> 00:11:36.826
That's real community work.

00:11:36.826 --> 00:11:42.442
Sorry that we lost Lucky, but she promised to stop back by when she's in town again.

00:11:42.442 --> 00:11:45.846
This episode is proof that Silk's legacy lives on.

00:11:45.846 --> 00:11:54.153
Me, Rochelle, and several other former track stars are living proof that you can elevate your life by picking up what we're putting down.

00:11:54.153 --> 00:11:55.956
We were part of Silk's plan.

00:11:55.956 --> 00:11:57.957
He didn't save us.

00:11:57.957 --> 00:12:00.299
He showed us how to save ourselves.

00:12:00.299 --> 00:12:02.802
Now, we pass it on to you.

00:12:02.802 --> 00:12:04.344
What do you want out of life?

00:12:04.344 --> 00:12:06.225
Do you want to start something real?

00:12:06.225 --> 00:12:08.897
Then you need to hit us up.

00:12:08.897 --> 00:12:25.269
If you have any comments, questions, or just want to share something with us, you can reach us at letmepullyourcoat@gmail.com feel free to subscribe, share, and if Silk ever helped you level up, leave a message or become a subscriber.

00:12:25.269 --> 00:12:27.293
You may receive some nice merch.

00:12:27.293 --> 00:12:32.801
Hopefully, in the next episode, Silk will be back with stories from overseas.

00:12:32.801 --> 00:12:35.865
Until then, I'll be spitting this wisdom.

00:12:35.865 --> 00:12:42.174
So keep grinding smart, keep loving harder, and never forget who poured into your glass.

00:12:42.174 --> 00:12:47.923
If you ever need us, we are always here to pull your coat and straighten your crown.

00:12:47.923 --> 00:12:51.048
Until next time, much love and much respect
