3:18
Please welcome the Money Making Conversations Masterclass,
3:20
Robin Wilson. How you doing, Robin?
3:22
How are you doing? Well, how are you?
3:24
Well, Robin, I got this fantastic looking book called Clean Design,
3:28
Wellness for Your Lifestyle.
3:31
And you autographed it, thank you.
3:32
That means I get to keep you right now.
3:36
Now, this is a book, my wife is going to take this from me,
3:39
because it's always the amazing pictures,
3:41
and she's always on me, Robin, about take off your shoes,
3:47
shake your coat before you bring it in the house.
3:50
You know, I'm so annoyed, I just ignore her
3:53
and sitting there and going to another conversation
3:55
that we won't do on the show,
3:56
but she's after reading your book, I gotta say,
4:01
I should have been listening to you.
4:03
I have to go public with this.
4:04
I apologize, because after reading your book,
4:07
she has been absolutely telling me to do the right thing,
4:11
and I may have had a much more breathing,
4:16
and better breathing environment in my home
4:18
if I have listened to her.
4:20
Talk about your company and your brand clean design.
4:24
Well, first of all, thank you for having me on the show,
4:27
and I wanted to let you know that one in five people
4:30
suffer from asthma or allergies,
4:32
that's 60 million Americans.
4:34
And one of the first places we think of
4:37
is the weaving and sneezing outside,
4:39
but we forget about our homes,
4:42
which absolutely should be a sanctuary for easy breathing.
4:47
And figure white is right.
4:51
Yeah, they go back to us.
4:52
You're gonna record this, I'm gonna talk to them.
4:54
Because I want to talk to the public here,
4:58
the general public in the sense that,
5:00
we assume a lot of things we walk through life.
5:04
We go out there into pollen.
5:06
We complain about it,
5:07
and then we just come right back into our house
5:10
with that pollen, with those flakes you may not see,
5:14
and we might just sit on the sofa.
5:15
We might even dive into our bed and watch TV.
5:19
All that is what you're talking about,
5:21
and you're trying to tell us to stop,
5:23
and realize that we are carriers, correct?
5:27
Well, I think the first thing to say is,
5:29
when you walk into your home, take your shoes off,
5:32
take your hat off, take your coat off,
5:35
and try to leave all of that outside air, outside pollen,
5:41
and any other issues at your doorstep.
5:45
And then create a safe home environment,
5:48
not just for you, but for your children.
5:50
A lot of people are dead that your shoes,
5:55
in some places, you could be walking across a park,
5:58
and you never know what's happened on the grass
6:02
And so you don't want E. coli in your home, for example.
6:06
You don't want other toxins in your home.
6:09
But my book, Clean Designed Home,
6:11
was actually my second book.
6:13
We've created a lifestyle brand over 24 years.
6:17
I am the first black woman, American woman,
6:20
to have a global lifestyle brand
6:23
focused on the allergen aware consumer.
6:26
We are sold at 51 Macy stores from Guam to Puerto Rico.
6:31
We're at 56 belt stores on Wayfair, Shopify,
6:38
and every branch of the military, actually,
6:41
the PX faces have our brand.
6:44
That should show you that it is a problem
6:48
that people are trying to find a solution to.
6:51
And our Clean Designed Home brand hopes to be
6:55
and remain the number one allergen aware brand.
6:58
You might notice I'm not using the term hypoallergenic.
7:02
I say that because Jane Doe might be allergic to something
7:07
and the next person is not.
7:09
So by saying allergen aware,
7:10
we actually are trying to make sure people know
7:13
what's in their product.
7:14
So they can make a decision about what works for their skin
7:18
or their environment at their home.
7:22
I remember Robin, first of all,
7:24
thank you for coming to my show to talk about Clean Designed,
7:26
talk about lifestyle, talk about the home.
7:29
And we want to get in detail in your book
7:32
because I travel a lot on airplanes
7:34
and not fly with a mask and a very comfortable flying
7:39
And but every once in a while I see people
7:41
get on the plane carrying this little beat up pillows.
7:44
You know, these little ugly pillows.
7:45
I can make a, I mean, like, you know,
7:47
this pillow then saw another life.
7:49
This pillow saw another life.
7:51
And I go, and my mind I go,
7:53
that pillow, first of all, it's coming on the plane.
7:56
And then it's being hugged up by this person.
7:59
And then this plane, this pillow's going off on the plane.
8:02
And you have a story about pillows in your book
8:05
that you talk about.
8:06
I'm gonna allow you to tell everybody
8:08
about those pillows that we sometimes have fallen in love with.
8:11
We need to be doing something else with them.
8:13
Call them, put them in the trash.
8:15
Well, you are so funny.
8:17
I actually asked someone recently,
8:19
I spoke to a big group and I said,
8:23
when was the last time each of you
8:25
washed or replaced or pillow?
8:27
And there was just a wave of groans and grimaces
8:31
And I said to everyone, I said,
8:35
the average answer is six years,
8:38
but they're the outlier that have had their pillow since college
8:41
and they're now in their 40s.
8:43
So that's pretty gross when you think about the dandruff,
8:47
the pollen, the drool,
8:49
and any other number of pathogens
8:53
that could be in your pillow.
8:55
But I make it funny when I say to someone,
8:58
break up with your pillow.
9:03
And there's a simple test.
9:04
If you can fold your pillow over and it stays in place,
9:09
it probably weighs more now than when you bought it.
9:12
Pillows should pop back.
9:14
You know, you fold it a little bit
9:15
and it just pops back into place.
9:17
That's a pretty healthy pillow.
9:19
One of the things most people don't know
9:21
is I have a rule of three because you can actually
9:24
wash a down alternative pillow.
9:27
That means that if you think about your pillow
9:31
as an ecosystem in and of itself,
9:35
you can wash the pillow cover every three weeks,
9:42
wash the pillow protector.
9:43
That means a zippered pillow protector every three months.
9:46
And then every three years,
9:48
if you haven't done all those things,
9:49
you need to replace your pillow.
9:51
Think like the batteries, you know, every see this.
9:53
And then on top of that, it's also a beauty story.
9:57
Have you ever wondered when you're traveling,
9:59
you go to a hotel and you come back
10:00
with each so refreshed and everybody's like,
10:02
oh my God, you look so good.
10:05
You know, and you're like, oh, I'm so great.
10:07
Three days later, you're stuffed up,
10:10
and you have circles under your eyes again.
10:13
And what you may be doing is sleeping on a dirty pillow.
10:17
And that means when you think about a hotel,
10:21
they're refreshing their pillows all the time.
10:24
You come home to that pillow,
10:26
you should be breaking up with.
10:28
And you should absolutely go to clean design home
10:32
Well, that's why you're on the show.
10:34
Because I'm going to share a couple of stories about,
10:37
I think some people need to hit the truth.
10:38
You know, I'm not the person who,
10:40
I remember in about 2001, I was always coffeeed.
10:44
I mean, it was to a point I was coffeeing so much
10:49
that I didn't really, I'm not saying suicidal,
10:55
but it was just constant cough.
10:57
It was just a constant cough,
10:58
and it was just frustrating me because,
11:01
I didn't know how to get rid of it.
11:02
It wasn't a cold cough, it was a constant cough.
11:05
And that was, and eventually learned that was tied
11:07
to my pillow in my Los Angeles apartment.
11:11
Because what happened was I traveled so much,
11:14
a Robin, and because I traveled,
11:16
I never could figure out where it was.
11:17
You know, and it turned out I was allergic to that pillow.
11:21
That I don't know what the pillow was.
11:22
Once I got rid of that pillow, my cough went away.
11:25
And that's when we talked about clean design,
11:27
making sure the environment you stay in.
11:29
And then another story was when I found out,
11:33
I was allergic to feathers.
11:39
And I was in Austin, my daughter was touring
11:43
she was playing tennis with my wife,
11:45
and I just broke out.
11:47
And I was just laying on a sofa.
11:49
And that's when I discovered I was allergic to feathers.
11:53
And again, you have to realize these patterns,
11:59
and these patterns can really lead to a lifestyle
12:02
that can kill you and not only kill you,
12:07
And so when you wrote your book, Clean Design,
12:10
what was the basic purpose of it, Robin?
12:13
I think that the premise goes back to,
12:17
I grew up with allergies in asthma.
12:19
I jokingly say I was the lab rat for my lifestyle.
12:23
And a lot of people today recognize that allergens
12:27
can create or allergic reactions
12:29
can create a chronic inflammation in your body.
12:32
That means when you really get sick,
12:34
you're immune system's weak.
12:36
So I recommend always using a down alternative pillow
12:40
because it can be washed number one.
12:43
I also recommend that you try to protect your mattress
12:48
with a mattress protector and also protector pillow
12:51
with a pillow protector.
12:52
So let me take it to another place.
12:54
I grew up in Austin, Texas.
12:56
I'm surprised you mentioned Austin.
13:00
And I call it the weaving and staging capital world, right?
13:03
Because it's blooming all year round.
13:05
Beautiful, greenery.
13:07
And so you weave and see outside.
13:09
And if you don't have certain protocols inside,
13:11
then you're also weaving and sneezing inside.
13:14
I also believe that a lot of people don't realize,
13:18
and when they read the book,
13:19
they'll learn that the same pollen profile
13:22
that you might be allergic to grass or some trees,
13:27
you can come inside and eat a fruit
13:29
from that same profile or vegetable from that same profile.
13:33
And it will cause you to just double up your load of allergens.
13:38
And so let's say you're allergic to grass
13:43
or to trees and then you come in and eat a cucumber.
13:47
It might be the exact same pollen profile.
13:50
And so I'm trying to educate people
13:52
about simple steps they can use to protect them,
13:55
so especially during allergy and asthma season,
13:58
and may, as you know, as allergy and asthma awareness month,
14:02
so you're way ahead of the curve
14:04
in talking about this subject.
14:06
Well, I have to because of the fact that it personally impacts
14:09
me, impacts my family, my daughter, my wife.
14:13
And if you don't realize what's going on,
14:15
it can run a relationship,
14:16
can run your experience socially,
14:19
can make you, your sleeping habits can be impacted by.
14:24
It can make you a grumpy person.
14:26
It can make you a person that people don't want to be around
14:29
because you don't understand what's bothering you.
14:32
And that's what the clean design is all about.
14:35
And let me just, before we go,
14:36
we're going to go to break to the minute
14:37
and I want to just set up what we're going to talk about
14:39
on the backside of this break.
14:41
Clean design is a room by room guy by Robin Wilson,
14:44
who I'm speaking to.
14:45
She is an expert in creating a wellness lifestyle
14:48
and a lifelong allergy and asthma.
14:50
She's life-zone allergy and asthma sufferer.
14:54
Just like me, I'm an allergy sufferer.
14:56
And this book will enable you to eliminate
14:59
and manage allergy triggers,
15:01
which I had to find and had to discover
15:03
and create a comfortable and non-toxic home environment.
15:08
Before we go to break, when people come to you,
15:13
I'm pretty sure people get pretty emotional
15:15
because like I said, when I was coughing in Los Angeles,
15:20
you know, I won't say the word suicide,
15:23
but I really didn't feel like living
15:25
because it was just really, really bad.
15:28
And I was just constantly coughing and coughing.
15:32
It was always in the morning
15:33
because I was doing the morning show,
15:34
Steve Harvey morning show from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m.
15:36
And that whole run, I was, it was about six months,
15:39
I was just constantly coughing.
15:41
And so when people come to you and say, thank you,
15:44
I'm pretty sure you get, it can't get pretty emotional,
15:48
Certainly, and especially when it's a parent with a child
15:52
who maybe they've been rushing their child
15:54
to the emergency room in the middle of the night.
15:56
And I simply will say, change the pillow,
15:59
test the pillow, change the sheets,
16:03
and dust under the bed.
16:06
And a few other, you know, places like
16:08
get the ceiling fan clean, clean from the top down.
16:11
You give them simple tips.
16:13
The next thing you know, you get that nice letter.
16:15
Please don't go anywhere.
16:16

Okay, presented by Capital One,
18:08
founding partner of iHeart Women's Sports.
18:12
1010, Shopify City Hall Building.
18:17
A silver 40 caliber handgun was recovered at the scene.
18:21
From iHeart podcasts and best case studios,
18:25
this is Worshack, Murder at City Hall.
18:27
How could this have happened in City Hall?
18:29
Somebody tell me that.
18:32
July 2003, Councilman James E. Davis
18:35
arrives at New York City Hall with a guest.
18:38
Both men are carrying concealed weapons
18:41
and in less than 30 minutes, both of them will be dead.
18:50
Everybody in the chamber's ducts.
18:52
A shocking public murder.
18:54
A scream, get down, get down.
18:57
Those are shots, get down.
18:58
A charismatic politician.
18:59
You know, he just bent the rules all the time, man.
19:02
I still have a weapon and I could shoot you.
19:06
And an outsider with a secret.
19:09
He alleged he was evicted of flat-down.
19:12
That may have been not have been political.
19:14
That may have been about sex.
19:16
Listen to Worshack, Murder at City Hall
19:18
on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts,
19:20
or wherever you get your podcasts.
19:26
If you're trying to keep up with everything happening
19:28
on and off the court, we've got you covered
19:30
on the podcast, Flagrant, and Funny.
19:32
You look at the top four number one scenes.
19:35
What do you think UCLA is going to do?
19:36
Break down that for me, my friend.
19:38
Obviously, Yukon is the overwhelming favorite
19:41
in this tournament, but I'd be honest.
19:43
I think people are kind of sleeping on Texas.
19:47
Experts are suggesting that UCLA is the number one
19:50
challenger to Yukon and that right after that would be Texas.
19:54
S&C is so deep and so thick and just about everything.
19:57
It really is annoying.
19:58
So it's UCLA, Texas, South Carolina, LSU.
20:02

This is a beautiful book, by the way.
20:45
it's like, can one say it's a coffee table book?
20:48
Because that's that feeling with all these beautiful photos
20:50
and the imagery, but it has so much information
20:52
that you can't leave it on the coffee table
20:54
because you need to be reading this in your bed,
20:56
reading it in your drinking coffee,
20:59
reading it in your office breaks
21:00
because there's so much vital information
21:02
that can change a person's lifestyle.
21:05
Yes, well, those are all my designs
21:07
from my design work over the last period of time.
21:12
With my client's permission,
21:13
we've published photos of their spaces,
21:15
but this book is a primer.
21:17
It's not meant to be read, covered, a cover.
21:20
There's a, for each room, there's a kitchen.
21:22
There's the nursery, there's the bathroom.
21:25
You can read it, learn what you need to learn.
21:28
Put it away, come back to it as you need to.
21:31
And so if you read it, cover to cover it,
21:33
we'll feel repetitive,
21:34
but a lot of people gain so much information.
21:39
You learn simple things that I actually omitted to my grandmother
21:43
who was a housekeeper in the era of the help.
21:47
And she had a book,
21:51
and back then you didn't have the commercial cleaners
21:53
that you find in the grocery store.
21:55
She's lemon juice and toothpaste and baking soda
22:03
And so people are like Coca-Cola.
22:05
And so yeah, did you know you can pour Coca-Cola
22:08
in your toilet overnight?
22:09
And if you have a ring, it will be gone
22:11
in the morning with a little elbow grease.
22:13
If you have a child who puts crayon on the wall,
22:16
we can use toothpaste to get that crayon off
22:19
instead of putting a toxic cleanser at their nose level.
22:23
And you can also clean the tile in your bathroom
22:26
and make it white with toothpaste.
22:29
Simple tips to prevent your home
22:32
from being overloaded with chemicals.
22:34
Wow, just smiling when I was listening to this information
22:38
because when I get home, my wife won't leave.
22:42
She won't be just wagging the finger,
22:43
but she don't have a lot to say
22:45
because she's like a kindred spirit with you
22:48
with this information you have in this book.
22:50
Now, we talked about the entryways in the mud rooms.
22:53
Now, I'm gonna tell you what I do.
22:55
I come home, you know, put my keys down,
22:58
I unload it at the doorway.
23:00
I guess you can call it the entryway
23:02
of the mud room area, you know?
23:03
And then I, then I come and I just flop in the middle
23:06
of the room and I turn on the remote and I'm watching TV.
23:10
Okay, what mistakes, if you know what I've just said,
23:14
Did you take your shoes off?
23:18
Did you maybe wash your hands and then change your clothes?
23:24
So you have, I call it your city street clothes
23:27
and then you have your lounge wear that you have at home.
23:31
So you put whatever, let's say you rode the train that day
23:35
or you were in the park, you just put all that pollen
23:38
or whatever on your couch.
23:41
So this is what she does, she goes, watch your hands.
23:45
I ain't got tap on that, I ain't got tap on that.
23:48
I'm all I wanted you to drink a glass of water,
23:51
And then, so I'm saying that I'm here in the truth
23:55
because of the fact that these are things that I resist
23:58
and I eventually do it with a little nagging
24:00
and I wash my hands or I grab a fruit
24:03
and then she said, wash your hands for you before you eat that.
24:06
And of course, I put the fruit on the water
24:08
but then, you know, is my hands washed?
24:11
Your hands were, yes, the good athletes.
24:14
I just didn't say, if you were to imagine,
24:17
and this sounds really gross,
24:19
but if you were to imagine that every surface you touch,
24:22
you got some glitter on the fingers.
24:25
Every surface, so that means you touched the railing
24:28
on the train, you touched your door handle,
24:31
you touched your, maybe you have to put gas
24:35
in your cars, you touched that pump
24:37
that a million people have touched and so on.
24:39
And then you come inside and you touch a plate of food.
24:43
How much glitter would be on your fingers?
24:48
Now, if you say those were germs,
24:51
some, your body right now maybe can fight it off,
24:55
maybe it can, but now you are putting that inside of you.
25:02
Just have that moment.
25:04
So now you wash your hands,
25:06
takes you the happy birthday song to wash your hands.
25:11
And now you're now at least you've mitigated some of the germs.
25:17
But it's all about effort.
25:21
It's all about consistency.
25:23
And when you was, when you was going,
25:24
cause in your book, you go from room to room,
25:26
you go from entryway, you go to the living room,
25:28
you talk about the kitchen, you talk about the bedroom,
25:30
where you spend 130 of your life,
25:32
baby nursery, bathroom, home offices,
25:34
larger room basement, garages, and addicts,
25:38
So you break it down.
25:39
You let, there are no excuses to people going,
25:43
okay, Robin, what about the addict?
25:45
Okay, I got, I got something for you.
25:47
Hey, Robin, what about my bedroom?
25:48
All right, got something for you.
25:50
Hey, Robin, what about the kitchen?
25:51
I got something for you.
25:53
Because you want to make sure that when people,
25:56
when you talk to your house about clean design,
25:58
you want to make sure this is how you can design
26:00
and live a good life.
26:01
And that's important to you, correct?
26:04
It is, I said this to someone recently,
26:08
if you tomorrow were diagnosed with diabetes,
26:14
you're going to probably do whatever
26:17
the doctor tells you to do.
26:19
If you recognize that asthma is a chronic condition,
26:23
just like diabetes, in fact, before COVID,
26:26
I think it was the fourth leading cause of death,
26:29
you would do what your doctor says.
26:32
And what he often will say or she will say
26:35
is you need a clean environment.
26:37
You need to make sure you watch what you eat.
26:41
You need to have a clean pillow and bedding.
26:44
You need to duster home.
26:46
You need to take your shoes off at the front door.
26:49
And you need to make sure, first and foremost,
26:55
that if you bring pollen into the house,
26:58
either you wash her hair or, you know,
27:01
what do you call it?
27:02
You brush it out or you wear a sleep cap or something.
27:06
Something to make sure you're not turning over
27:10
to smell the night and having that reaction.
27:13
Now, what is that reaction?
27:14
That's what most people are like.
27:15
Why is it three in the morning?
27:19
And I remind them that during the day,
27:22
we have something called cortisol,
27:23
it's a stress hormone.
27:25
Now, it allows us to get through the day
27:27
and all this stressful things we encounter.
27:29
And at some point, it leaves your body.
27:32
It goes to a lower level.
27:33
So you can sleep and go into room sleep.
27:36
Well, that's about the time when that stress hormone's gone,
27:40
which is when your body can react
27:43
for lack of a better word.
27:44
So reactions can be, when people think about this,
27:49
they're, eczema, hay fever, and asthma are all in the same family.
27:57
So you might wake up with a rash on your arm,
28:02
That could be an eczema reaction.
28:04
You might wake up with the cough or the wheezing.
28:08
It might be your hay fever reaction.
28:10
And you might have a full-on asthma attack.
28:14
All in the same family, different degrees
28:16
and different manifestations.
28:18
Now, if you just do simple steps to manage the triggers,
28:26
then the likelihood that it will go to full-on asthma attack
28:32
Just the same way in diabetes, right?
28:36
If you eat well, don't binge on a chocolate bar
28:45
at the wrong time, the likelihood
28:48
you're going to go into full-diabetic coma is very low.
28:53
And that's what people don't understand.
28:56
And really, asthma is like your choking.
28:58
You can't breathe in.
29:00
All you want is you can't breathe out.
29:02
It's like you're suffocating from the inside out.
29:04
It's very scary if you've had an asthma attack.
29:06
Robin, as we close out the show,
29:08
we've been talking about your book Clean Design,
29:10
Wellness for Your Lifestyle, but also
29:12
want to remind people if you can, your retail brand,
29:15
your platforms where your designs are available and retail
29:19
stores across the country to floor yours.
29:22
Well, you know, Clean Design's home is a lifestyle brand.
29:26
We're so, like I said, macy, belt, waist
29:29
there, fets off beyond every branch of military.
29:33
Number one, allergen and wear brand.
29:35
We hope that people will visit at Clean Design
29:38
home on Instagram and Facebook and friend us.
29:42
And don't so shop us.
29:45
We want to really push the one-stop shop
29:50
for a healthy lifestyle to everyone.
29:53
And especially the one-in-five people
29:56
who suffer from asthma analogies.
29:58
