What is Blushington and who is Natasha Cornstein?

Grandma Gail 0:41
Natasha has been at Blushington for a few years now. So she's gonna talk about that and her roles at Blushington and her journey as a CEO. So, Natasha, thanks for joining us.
Natasha Cornstein 0:53
Thank you so much for having me. I'm thrilled to be here today.
Grandma Gail 0:57
And there's a lot of background here, familial relations, right? Well, that's true because I know Natasha since she's about your age. I've seen her son grow up. I love, love her husband. So crazy. Your brother, actually, he got tickets for him in New Orleans to go to the games.
Natasha Cornstein 1:16
Oh, that's right. Yes.
Grandma Gail 1:16
Because Mark is friendly with the coach down in Tulane.
Natasha Cornstein 1:19
He represents him. Exactly.
Grandma Gail 1:21
Yes. And so we have a whole wagon, plus the fact I have a special spot for her in-laws. So it's really a pleasure. How did you meet them? I met them. It's very interesting, Natasha. I don't even know if you know the story. I don't think so. Your in-laws were very, very friendly with my parents. i don't think i knew that that's how i met them and my dad was always a um person who worried about the sun and your father-in-law unfortunately exact opposite used to sit in the sun in capri and that's where they used to spend their summers with baby oil and my father used to be running over to him all the time putting a hat on his head doing whatever and from there when the next generation got friendly, we became friendly. And I've known them for a very long time and they're very special people and wonderful. They love Natasha. From the time she met Mark, it was always Natasha this, Natasha that. So it's great to have you on today. But now let's talk about you.
Grandma Gail 2:20
We keep it here in the family. Excuse my grandma.
Natasha Cornstein 2:23
Absolutely. And I do have to say you were at my wedding. Yes, I was. And she is as beautiful then as she is today.
Grandma Gail 2:30
So I could say the same about you. Well, thank you. Thank you. What do you remember about the wedding? Oh, my gosh. I just remember how long ago. We were at the Rainbow Room. Right, exactly.
Natasha Cornstein 2:41
It was beautiful. It was 70 degrees.
Grandma Gail 2:43
It was beautiful.
Natasha Cornstein 2:44
Oh, that's so nice. On December 1st. That's rare, too. Well, it was very special.
Listener (Aaron) 2:57
23.
Grandma Gail 2:57
All right. It's been amazing. So that's a good journey. We like that. And I also love that she's become pregnant. a woman in business. You know, she started out as a mom too, you know, let's face it. Her primary thing was as a wife and as a a mother, but she's been terrific in business, even just when in the early years supporting Mark. So I worked with my husband. Oh, wow. I need to hear about that for over a decade. How does that differ from what you're doing now?
Natasha Cornstein 3:25
Well, it was completely different. It was my husband's company. He started it out of college. He worked two jobs. So he worked at the New York City Sports Commission and was entrepreneurial at heart and started his own sports agency. recruiting international players to the NBA. So he would work all day, go out. He was a real partier. And then he would set his alarm and wake up for European hours. And that's how he built his agency.
Grandma Gail 3:53
And I think in all fairness to Natasha, she was the power behind the man. because I remember when that was an early time in your marriage, she was ever present in his business and really knew how to run it. He might've been looking and recruiting, but she was running the nitty gritty. So- Is that how you felt? Kudo to the women.
Natasha Cornstein 4:12
I don't know about that. I think, and that's what's really different about my business today actually is he was definitely the boss. He did all the business. He did all of the contract negotiation. and i got to listen in and learn right and and i did all the nitty-gritty finding players there right so supporting rolled out to starring role i always say he was jerry i was renee wait i don't know the reference oh no you're too young jerry mcguire oh duh i love that movie okay good but it wasn't i'm like oh my gosh am i that old no you're not you're not
