SHOW NOTES:
• First of all, I want you to share your story with everybody who's listening, because I feel like there's a lot of people who see very successful people, and they think that those people just have always been successful. They've always had money, or they've always been in that top percent, and I want you to share where you came from, where your situation when you decided, I'm not going to stay in this place.(03:27)
• Because I feel like it's similar to where I grew up, I never really knew anything outside of go to school, get a job, work your way up, do everything you can to impress your family, make them proud of you serve, serve, serve. I was raised in the church, and I just tried to always follow the rules, so I think the turning point for me was when I followed all the rules, and life still tanked that I knew something had to be wrong with the rules. It's kind of like what's going on in the world right now. Everybody's just wondering and following a set of rules that they stood by for so long and they don't realize that sometimes they need to find their own. (05:11)
• It was everything I knew and believed in, so I was determined to make it work. So, I got involved with network marketing, and I was officially the worst human they'd ever seen, I was so afraid and so broken down, and I sucked at sales. I knew nothing about sales, I was doing phone TV, internet as electricity, I was disconnecting people's phones, I was screwing it up, royally. People are like, we've had this phone over in our family for generations, I'm like, Well, isn't it nice to bring in the new year with new, and they're like, No, it's not. And I was like, I'm really sorry. So I was really, really bad. Even my mentors who were some of the top 10 in the world, I think it was just a gift they were given to me, were like, Honey, you're not great at this, like maybe you should seek other avenues and work on this on the side for the next decade and see if it'll work. (09:20)
• I really think I build their bravery enough to where they're brave enough, and we can have this conversation, the pin drop. And I'm like, I can build a business around that. So it's really helping someone be confident enough in that inner idea for a moment, and if they give me a moment, I can lay out a plan and a strategy for almost everything. Because my life was like three kids on my own having to do everything school, sports, house, everything, and I had to be so strategic in my every move that I can see someone's strategy from a mile away. They're like, it's the how I've got, it's the what that I need your help with. (16:17)
• You've got the ripple effect. But a big one, and I feel like there are... How do I phrase this? So now I watch your Friday night lives and your posts and everybody, and all of the comments, and I think because I know you, and that it's not that I take it for granted, but I know how special you are, and not just me but to me and my girls, and I see all of those people who see you and you're such an inspiration to them, and I know that you inspire them so much and they just want to be in your presence.
