Okay, let's see if we are live. And all the technology gods are going to work with us and not against us. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, hoping and praying because Mark Zuckerberg is going to have, he's going to have some words. He's gonna have some words. So I'm so excited that you're here. I always try to be on time. I strive to be on time and I like was so excited getting ready to go on to social media channels and go live and it's like, you can't go live. And I'm like, what the actual F and now the lights are flickering. It's a full moon. Like, what is happening like, it's so perfect for this super special masterclass, because this masterclass is sponsored by all of my tears. It's sponsored by all of my sweat. It's sponsored by my team's tears, my team's sweat my husband, like, yeah, when people say that they are a self made millionaire. It actually really bothers me. I wanted to get the chat up, and actually really bothers me because I don't think there's anything as self made. I think there's only there's only a team and it takes so many people, which is why we're gonna be celebrating for a hot second, because this is one of many big milestones. And I have not, I have not truly celebrated for so many reasons that I'm going to get into in this masterclass. So, this is not the Nelly show. Like this is not to be like yay, me like, yes, I want to celebrate. But this is really like this masterclass. Like I'll be celebrating outside of this with myself. I'm gonna go to TJ Maxx. I'm gonna celebrate with my husband. I'm gonna celebrate with my team. I'm gonna throw the biggest ask party but like this specific, masterclass, I hope I pray is worth millions of dollars to you and to your life and to your family, and it blesses your life. So you're gonna hear my co host, Boone. So he's rolling around on the floor right now, you'll probably see him but I can't just think of a better way to do this then every curveball throwing thrown in my way. So if you feel like you have been under estimated in your life, like can I just get a show of hands? Like, even if you're watching the replay and you're like, Girl, yes, like, I have been so underestimated, since I was 16 years old, like, underestimated over and over and over again at networking events at in boardrooms, in my day to day life, like, online, like all the things I've been underestimated so many times and so truly this milestone of reaching over $1 million in sales online. Feels like for every single mama out there for every single person that has been underestimated literally, he's been pretty quiet and this is just my life. This is just my life you are getting the real the raw, the unfiltered. Because it wouldn't be my life if it if it wasn't it would not be my life. Um, so this is this masterclass is truly for everyone that's been under estimated in their life once twice a million times. Because I want it to be proof to you that you can fucking do this, like whether you have a business yet. Or maybe you felt like you want to throw in the towel in your business. I've been there many times. But I just truly want I hope that if you can be calm, or you should. But I want to be real. I want to be raw with you. I want to be honest with you. Because I don't see that enough online. And you feel like it's gonna be this like easy thing. But I am like, I'm a overnight success. 17 years in the making, and I am the most imperfect human you will probably ever meet. Like ever. I have had so many challenges, mentally, emotionally, physically, financially, but yet I'm here I'm still standing and so are you. And I just want us to like take a moment to appreciate that and equally Like, I also don't want you to make this harder than it needs to be. Which is why at the end of the masterclass like I'm not going to even pretend like I'm going to invite you to, to join us in this movement, because having community and having support truly is why I'm still here. It's why I'm still here. And my family like, those, those reasons are why I am still here. Like, because this is just not easy, okay? It's just not easy. But it can be easier with coaching community, and, you know, a family cheering you on. And if you don't have a family cheering you on, you can create your own family, right? Like, you can create your own little family. They don't have to be blood related to cheer you on for sure. So let's get, let's get the baby calmer. The lights are very bright, that's probably like not making him very happy. But super excited that you're here. And I got balloons for you. I got a headband for you. I even have confetti that I really want to pop. But I think I'm going to need like two hands. And it's gonna get messy and it's gonna get everywhere. But like, it's so perfect because this journey of getting to over$1 million cash, lifetime sales since my daughter was born. Okay, literally my business, my online business was starting, literally as I was like going in for labor and delivery and getting induced, like people were signing up, I was dropping Pay Pal links like that was really the launching pad, if you will, for my online business. Prior to that. I was a nonprofit. So I started my own nonprofit organization, and built that over 10 years I started at when I was 16 years old. And we had great milestones, we still to this day, have amazing milestones. And we still to this day support pediatric cancer families. And I reached so many milestones, six figure set not only six figures and fundraising, but six figure fundraisers, multiple of them, then going on to millions and millions of dollars, we have huge corporate sponsors that I was able to obtain. And they're still with us, right? Like, throughout our whole time together, right? Like and passing it off to another leadership team. Still being involved, just not obviously, like 80 hours a week like I was. So I say all of that, because I reached huge milestones for nonprofit, which I think is even harder than business. Because you're literally asking people to be good humans, and they get really nothing in return. Like besides like, some good feelings that lasts for a little bit, and maybe a tax write off or two, but like to, to create the the story of like you, please donate to us, right? Like, please help the children is not an easy thing to do. Truly, it's not and corporations are always getting so many requests, people are getting so many requests. And so I feel super proud that like I spent 10 years developing my skills, and giving back to the community and then I got to the point where we knew we were ready to have a family that I really needed to decide like, you know, what, what what would wealthy Nelly do? That's probably the biggest thing that I want you to get from this masterclass is like what would wealthy you do? Like, what decisions would you make today, tomorrow and forever. And that's really how, like, I didn't say it in that way, then, but looking back, that's really like, what I was asking myself without phrasing it in that way. And I think that's just so important, because I made some big, big ass moves that scared the crap out of me. But deep, deep, deep down, I knew there was more for me. And it was so unclear. Like, it wasn't like, I'm gonna leave a nonprofit organization that I've given my heart to for 10 years, hope and pray that it you know, sustain and lasts without me. And I'm gonna go over here and I have no idea what I'm going to do, right like, and, you know, eventually we'll make millions and millions and millions of dollars. That was never like the thing. Like, the thing for me was time freedom. It was choice. It was really figuring out like, what can I do on my own? And when I say on my own, like you don't own a non profit, right? Like the community owns a nonprofit. And so I went from nonprofit to for profit, but still with the hope of really blessing a lot of people's lives and creating a huge impact. Like that's truly like for all of my like heart centered marketers, business owners, everyone like, which I feel like that's who I attract. Because that's just what I embody. Be. But when you're so heart centered, like, regardless of the money, like money is important, don't get me wrong, we're not going to push money away. But we truly want to do good. Like, I know that's you watching, like you want to do good. And everyone's on their own journey. But I just wanted to do a tell all of the good, the bad, the ugly, the how the lessons, like make this feel like we're just like, at a coffee shop and I'm gonna like give you all all the juice, right? Like all the tea, all the coffee, like, just spill it to as a girlfriend, I don't know, we're gonna go to like drinks later, okay, like, we'll do this at the coffee shop. And then we'll go for drinks later. Because I just think it's so important. I just don't see this online. Like, you see people, you know, shouting out their their sales, their revenue, their milestones, but I just I don't see enough. I would like to see more of like, the hardships, the the lessons, the transparency. And this is, like I said, this is just one of many, many milestones. That I'm just so excited to take you on this journey together. Because like, I couldn't do this alone. And so this is just like my gift to you to like give back and share. So please grab a notebook like this is not like I said, this is not just like a we look at me, this is like no girl, we're gonna get down to business. Like, I want you to be wealthy AF, I want you to have time freedom. I want you to live a big ass life. I am done. apologizing for wanting a big ass life. Like, it's just who I am. And for so long, I felt so trapped, that I couldn't chop off my hair. I couldn't wear wigs. I couldn't speak up and say the F word I couldn't, you know, say yeah, I want to I want to G Wagen. I want to fly private, I want to travel the world, I want to have so much money in my bank account that I can give and live without even worrying. Like, that's what I want. That's what I'm working for. And also like writing big ass checks, to be able to help truly help this world of eating evening, the financial playing field for women, because it's not just what you see on the internet of like, yeah, let me invest in a book, let me invest in course, let me invest in a conference. There was a time in my life where I could not even afford nice professional clothing. And a mentor literally, like I drove to her house. And she was like, pick anything that you want. Like I have just so many clothes. And just I would told her how much that impacted me. I was able to see her at a charity event last Friday, when I told her how much that impacted me because at the time it was probably want to say it was like 22 and I was dead broke, like charging groceries. Eventually, like right after 22 I was in an apartment that I couldn't afford. I had so much student loan debt. Like if you would have told me that I'd be sitting here today like I would just be like, huh, like what? Like there's just no way like wealth was not a part of my full vocabulary. Financial Planning wasn't a part of my vocabulary. Building an Online Business wasn't a part of my vocabulary. Like, I like she would be so proud of this version of her. But she would also be like so confused of like, What the actual fuck? I didn't give a language warning. So I apologize about that. But I'm a mama but i like i like the F bomb. I tried to like catch myself, but I also don't want to censor myself. This is supposed to be real raw. And unfiltered anyways. And I lost a PASI you guys are getting there it is. Pasi. Yay. Let's see if we can get somebody to just fall asleep. delightfully in my arms. Okay, so let's talk about the good first I want to start off like on a high note. I think he's gonna get tired you guys, so I'm gonna drop them in here really quickly. All my mama's are like, oh, yeah, girl, I get you. I get you. I get you. I get you. We had a pep talk. I'm gonna like cover the stroller to see if he calms down a little bit. There we go. Everyone said send good vibes send good vibes. Okay, so let's start with the good because I do want to celebrate, there's so much to celebrate. And I want you to I want to show you what's possible. And start off on a high note. But then I also don't want to be su I don't want to sugarcoat things for you. I don't want to mislead you. So I want to like then also go into like, the real the raw, the unfiltered, give you all the tea. I'm also an open book. So if you ever want to just like talk, I'm more than happy to talk. But condense everything down as much as I can. There's still so much under It's a surface that there's just no way I could pack it into one masterclass, which is why I'm starting a docu series called Making of the movement, it's going to have deleted scenes. It's also going to have like edited episodes. But I want both because I want the realness the rawness is just so it's like one of my core values. But then we'll like be compiling episodes together, like highlight episodes, if you will. So you're just gonna see so much that like, I've never seen somebody on the online space, do it in the way that we're going to do it. And I'm just so excited. So it's not going to show you everything before. But like, we're still going for big milestones, like I see this as a 10 million plus company. And so I'm acting as if that's going to happen, I'm making decision as if that's going to happen, you're along for the journey. And so with that being said, We're gonna document it in real time. And I'm not holding back like I've already recorded episodes, I'm not ready to release them yet, but I've already recorded them. Because I just think that randomness is just so invaluable, like, literally so invaluable. So let's start with the good, shall we, because I think it's so important, because you are one of the crazy ones in this world that truly wants to build wealth, like and you may not say it in that way. Like I did it years and years ago, but you want more, you wouldn't be on this masterclass if you did not want more. Okay. So you don't need to have all the answers right now. So just want you to know that because I did not have all the answers. But we do want to like, we need to rev up the engine. Okay, like why do you want more? What do you want more of so for me, when I transitioned out of the nonprofit organization, it was truly time freedom, I wanted time to be able to be a mother, I wanted time with my husband, I wanted time, to be able to not have to always work nights and weekends and, and travel and do all the things unless I really, really wanted to write like I just wanted more choice. I wanted more time freedom, I wanted to be able to live, like the hardest part of like, my journey. One of the hardest parts was I grew up with a nonprofit organization, which was so fun, like you can literally see me like grow up with the organization. But with that being said, I really didn't have like a college experience, I was not a part of a sorority, I was working three plus jobs, not getting paid by the organization. Like there were a lot of years I did not get paid. And just truly like doing it to like grow it like because I freaking loved it. And I was so passionate about it. And I believed in it. And so with that being said, like, there's just so much good that I want to remind you of that can happen. And so like, what is the why? Like, what is the why? That why is so important. So for me, like I said it was time freedom. I just wanted choice. And so in order to get time freedom, what I realized when I transitioned out of the organization was how the level of time freedom that I desire to have the level of the life that I desire. I've got to build a wealthy machine, right like a wealthy ATM. Like can you imagine if there was like an ATM that you could go up to? And like boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, like type in your code. And then like any amount of money come out that you desire. Like maybe that day you wanted to go to TJ Maxx, maybe that day, you wanted to go buy a plane ticket to Vegas, maybe that day, you wanted to just have cash in your wallet, or maybe that day, you wanted to pay for something like send your kids to Disney World, or just pay for groceries. Right? And so that's what I started to build. Again, I didn't call it that in the beginning, because that wasn't a part of my vocabulary. But I quickly realized, oh, in order to have the time freedom that I really really desire, like and the life that I desire, so they go hand in hand because you can have a lot of time freedom but be broke, right and like, that's just not what I want to subscribe to. So in order to have the time freedom that I desire to do the things that I desire in that time freedom, right the lifestyle, I get to build a wealthy machine. Okay, so let's talk about the good first, I have met some of the most amazing fucking humans that have become dear friends of mine that I would never have met if I didn't have the courage to like get started. I do have a lot of time freedom like a lot like Emma has been sick, so off like so much over the last two weeks and having a baby. There's challenges with that. We've gone through the like the four month Sleep, sleep regression. So although it's challenging, mentally and emotionally, I'm so glad that I have the time freedom that I do, to be able to be mom, right? It's Jared wanted to go to Vegas, I can literally easily finagle my schedule, right? Like I'm going to T Swift, and a couple of weeks with a girlfriend in Boston. And I live in Columbus, Ohio, and I would easily able to, like, engineer my schedule to be a win win, right for everyone. And the coolest part about that is, I didn't have to ask permission. Book, yes. Like, that is one of the best things like, you don't have to ask permission, there is something so satisfying about like, Oh, my kids sick, I'm just going to shift I never asked permission, I never have to call awkward. If I need to shift to work only in the mornings, I just do it. If I need to take, you know, Thursday and Friday off, because I'm going to Taylor Swift or I'm going to Vegas with my husband, or I'm going somewhere else, right, or just need some self care. I just do it. Like, it's really easy for me to do and make it a win win. Right? It doesn't mean that like, there's like some things I need to ship right? Some favors I need to ask. But I can do it really easily right and still just make it the most home run ever. I've truly enjoyed paying a team paying myself. And Matt has gone through literally over$25,000 of therapy for two years. So $50,000 of therapy that my business hasn't been able to literally write checks for to help her get the therapy that she needs to thrive as a human like I've been able to help with that, right like that is massive, right, like, so massive. This is what I'm saying when I when we say building a wealthy ATM, building a wealth machine that you can go to over and over and over and over again, and type your code in. Okay. I've been able to travel to like some of the most bougie fun places. There's more in the works long term, maybe you'll be on a trip. But I've gone to Hawaii, I've gone to Destin, I've gone to Vegas, I've gotten to Florida, just for Disney World. Where else have we gone? Nashville, Chicago, like so many fun places, that it feels like a sorority like I was never able to be in a sorority and was never never able to have like the full on college experience. And so this in a way like feels like that flavor of like, you know, bonding with other females, supporting them, having fun with them. Like it's just so pleasurable and so fun, and amazing. So I've been able to do that grow as a human, and heal so much trauma. One thing that people don't warn you about is that this journey of entrepreneurship is the biggest personal growth journey like, and although it is challenging at times, I'm really putting it in the good category. Because I'm a better mom, I'm a better wife, I'm a better human, I'm a better coach, a mentor, a business woman, because of all the personal growth. And like that's worth billions of dollars to me, like the growth and the skills that I've been able to create in a short amount of time. No one ever, ever, ever, ever can take that away, right. And that's just so invaluable and why it's going into the good category. I've also had six figure launches, multiple six figure launches, literally working in sweatpants, pretty much no makeup, I did put lashes on for you today and a lip color. But I'm still in like a comfortable jumpsuit, I almost got like super dressed up or today. And I was like that just wouldn't be me like, I'm not changing, like, money just amplifies who you already are, and just allows you to do more of what you actually want to do. That's all like, that's all and when we can like really just start to step into that feeling and subscribe to that, of what money can do for us. We don't fear it as much. Okay. And then last but not least, just like truly having fun, like enjoying life, the quality of life that I've been able to build. Over the last five years, I have lived more in these last five years than ever before, like truly stepped into my own self, my own authentic self like you can literally see with my hair and I'm thinking about a different hair hair cut in this new identity that I'm stepping into. But you can literally visually see the visual change by my hair by by weight, like my lost weight over this journey. Like even before I quote unquote had an online business. I lost 40 pounds. I started going to personal development conferences, reading books, and I'm so glad that I did because it started as a personal growth journey. Not let me go make millions of dollars and more importantly, I really got into an aligned play. You said it's just not about the money. The money isn't a vehicle, but it's so much more than that. It's what money does that I think most women desire the most. It's what money can do for you. That's what I emotionally cling on to have like, oh my gosh, AMA and Boone my kids will never have to sit at their parents house adding up all of their student loan debt and say, Holy fuck, like how how do I do this? Like, how do I do this? Like I did not come for money. And I started off adulthood. So stressed so confused, like No wonder I gained so much weight like, along with other other things, right? Like I was getting paid, you know, minimum wage working lots and lots of hours. Like I was not in the right wealthy vehicle. If you only take one thing away from today, it's making sure that you're in the right wealthy vehicle with the right people and the right mindset, all three of those, okay? The right wealthy vehicle with the right people, because a trip alone is not so fun, right? But a trip with other passengers that are like so fun, and they've got a playlist, someone brought the snacks, someone's making you laugh, right? And then most importantly, like you, you're in it, to win it, you have a solid mindset doesn't mean that challenges aren't going to happen. I literally said that this masterclass is sponsored by my tears. I've cried a lot over this time. But I'm still here, I'm still standing. And I'm so much stronger. And I know I'm not going to give up like I just know I'm not going to I will still be here. And that is one of the most important things you get to choose. Because you will be out, you will outrun your competition by just that alone, over the long haul. When you know you're not going anywhere, when you know you're investing in the long term, right? Then we can start getting the short term feeling really, really juicy for you. And not like one foot in one foot out, right? When I finally like the saying of burning all the boats, it sounds a little dramatic, but we're just gonna use it today. When I fully like stopped looking at job postings, and putting together resumes. I don't even know how to put a resume together. I suck at it. i But I started like I made a resume years ago and my foot was in and then out. This was before I went into business coaching. And I just was like, why am I doing this? Like this is not gonna set me up for success. Unfortunately, the world is not set up for mothers to thrive. Like let's just talk about this for a hot second. Corporate. Like if I like Emma has been sick, like I said, like three times in one week. And my whole schedule has had to shift and there's been so many like curveballs thrown at me. Like most corporations would not like care. They'd be like, cool, like do your do your job even if you have to stay up till three in the morning, right? I'm not saying every corporation but most corporations, right? And you don't have choice in your like maternity leave, like Fuck, fuck the the six weeks, the eight weeks, that's not enough time, right? Like, yes, I've like worked during my maternity leave. But just knowing that I don't have to. It's huge. So it's like, it's always been a choice. It's like, it feels good to me. But I've also then taken steps back of like, you know what, I'm just not adding to my plate right now. Because I'm just emotionally I need to take a break. And I don't have any boss saying like, you can't do that. Right, which just makes a huge difference. Equally. Like, as we were, as I was delivering boon, we were launching an evergreen program, and we were making money without me, right? Like, as I was in the hospital, we were making money. Again, the wealthy vehicle, the wealthy machine, right, we need to make sure you are in the right vehicle with the right people say it with me and the right mindset, okay. And it's just so important. And even if like, I'm going to be talking to moms a lot right now, just because that's the season of life that I'm in. But even if you're not a mom yet, I wish somebody would have like, I wish I would have had this before, right? Like I did personal growth before I had kids, but there was not a lot of this kind of talk and it just would have been so invaluable. So even if you're not a mom yet, or don't want to be a mom doesn't mean that you can't get value from what I'm talking about. I hope you know that. Okay. All right. Let's talk about the bad and the ugly, shall we? If this is not like if you're not in a mental place to talk about this, please don't watch this. That's like my trauma informed warning. Because I am gonna get raw I mean, I'm gonna get real I'm not gonna hold back. And I think it's important but I first wanted to show you the, the good, and the just the positivity that can come from this. But here's the most important thing. If you want to go for millionaire status, if you You want to go for crazy amounts of money in your wealthy vehicle? There is there is a side that you need to know. Okay? It does not come without a price. It doesn't like no matter who you are, if anyone says that it does it, it you're literally going to come out without any scars or wounds or tears. They're just bullshitting you like, I fully believe it. Now, with that being said, you don't have to punish yourself, you don't have to struggle more than like normal to get there just to earn like a gold medal. Like I remember when I was like, super freaked out to give birth to Emma. And like everyone has their own philosophy of should you use drugs or medication during labor and delivery, everyone has their own vibe and feeling and that every mom has to do what's best for her. Always. Um, but with that being said, like Jared was like Jared, my husband, if you don't know, if you don't know him, he's really hot and amazing. Um, and I remember he said to me, I remember what he said to me. And he was like you, like, if you want to try an epidural, because you're in pain, like you don't get a gold medal for doing it, and making it harder. If that's not what you want. Like, he's like, it's whatever you want. But like, don't just do it, because there's people on the internet saying that it's bad, right, like, do what's best for you. And I just, I loved that feedback. As I are, Emma's birth was not at all easy. But when it came to the epidural, I was like, Yes, I want it. And I just remember getting like instant relief and be like, Okay, this has been a hard journey. But that made it a little bit easier, right. And I just say that to say, let's not make things harder than they need to be, just to like, brag of how hard it was. So please know, like, all that I'm sharing right now. There were moments where I was making it harder than it needed to be. And I have so much more self awareness now that I'm like, Okay, this doesn't feel good. Let's change it up. Right, like, so, this is a form of self sabotage that I was like, I was literally, I it was like a broken record. It just kept happening of making it hard and making it hard and making it hard. So you may see yourself in some of this, but now it's so nice, because I have so much self awareness that the minute it feels hard and not in alignment. It's like boom, let's, let's make a change things up. So, um, okay, so let's, there's so many you guys, there's so many. Okay, so let's talk about the one that no one talks about failed payments, you are going to have people when you are launching, when you are working with people one on one that are not going to fulfill their word, you're just you're it's just going to happen, it happens to every business owner, the goal is to get it under 3% of your overall sales. Okay. I'm happy to report it literally. Now probably happens. Point 5.1. Like, I was saying, point 1.5 to 1% in our business. But this like the industry standard, the goal is to get it to like under three to 5%. So if it's higher than that, then there's like we get to talk because either we are like attracting people, or we're not being super clear with people. But regardless of the percentage, it fucking sucks. It energetically drains you like, I did not sign up to be a banker to reach out to people to say, Hey, can you please do your word and fulfill your payment. And so I had to do that over the years, my team has had to do that over the years. And literally, I remember being super pregnant with him. And a dear friend of mine said just release some of these outstanding people, like just release them. It's not worth the fight. Like yes, they signed a contract. Yes, they keep, you know, telling you that they're going to pay they're going to pay they're going to pay with no signs of them paying so it's actually costing you energy and money. And you're super pregnant. And so I literally remember doing this and it was the most freeing thing ever. I signed up for this to have time freedom. So why am I spending my time chasing people that literally are not in the same frequency of me anyways, right? It's actually hurting us more by chasing those people because without even saying any change. People can feel it. They can just feel like it's it's a different vibe of a person, right? And vibes are everything. They literally are everything. Um, so that's a big one that no one talks about and it It feels so frustrating. If you feel so alone, you feel it brings up a lot of money wounds for you of like, am I just not worthy, right? Like, and equally, like what I've come to realize is that unfortunately, people say yes, without having, you know, backup plans, right without being able to fully commit to something, and then they get into an ocean moment. And then a lot of times the fight the flight, the freeze, the fun, trauma responses come up. And so they have a lot that they get to work through. But it doesn't have to be on your dime, it doesn't have to be at your expense of your time and your money more than anything, like money is replenishable. But I'm never gonna get my time back. Right? Like I would much rather be with my family than be sending emails to people that are past due and like, extremely past due now. Like sometimes Shit happens. But it's always how you own your shit, right? Like, it's always how you own your shit. So if shits going down, and people are like, Hey, I just need a couple more days, or hey, can we break this into a couple more payments? Absolutely. Like I've been there for one business owner to another, I've been there. But it's the it's the bamboozling, if you will of like, I'm gonna pay, I'm gonna pay I'm gonna pay. And then there's just nothing, not even $1, not even$10, it starts to build resentment, it starts to build. Just like that, like I said, the worthiness factor, it just brings up a lot, that is just not just not necessary, when you could be spending that time going to find amazing dreaming clients. And I can confidently say, I've never loved my clients more than I do right now, like, every single person is an integrity, they honor my boundaries, they give me grace. And I hope that they feel the same about me, like, I just love everyone in our world. So freaking much. And anytime that somebody now I'm going to kind of build lessons. And as I'm talking about the bad and the ugly, every time now somebody is not in good standing. We don't we don't beat us around, like, you get this amount of time you get in good standing, or you're paused. And the reason for that is not to be mean it's to help them right to not, we don't want to enable behavior that probably has been repeating for a long period of time. And I would much rather less and release somebody and let them work on their stuff and then come back, right like, I would much rather do that. Then my team keep reaching out, it's draining their energy, right. It's draining other clients energy. So we just we don't BS around anymore, like we are a tight ship. And you're either on the ship or you're off, right like, and we give a little bit of grace and a little bit of warning. And that's it like, and it feels so good. Because the minute the energy gets dirty, like it, the longer you wait, the worse it gets. Right. So just like keeping the energy, so clean and so pure. It's so important. And that is your responsibility. So like, just before I felt like a doormat. And it was like to try to be the nice person to try to give them some time. But I started to become a doormat and just allowing people to treat me like that. And that's a boundary, right, and I was allowing it to happen. So then as I sent those voice notes before we had Boone, why was instantly able to feel so much better. was because I took my power back, I created a boundary. And it was a beautiful voice now that I sent to those people and I said, I hope one day that you're able to pay it forward, right? Like you no longer owe this amount to us. And it was a lot of money, like probably easily over $25,000 That was still owed to us. Probably even more now that I'm thinking about it, but it doesn't matter. So that was a big one that I really wanted to talk about today. Another one is people are gonna talk about you. They are going to make accusations about you. They are going to make judgments about you which is quite honestly, why I think I was still so afraid to shout from the rooftops that we've done over $1 million in sales. I also felt like, I don't feel like I've arrived yet. There's so much more that I want to do. And so I was feeling so conflicted of like, well, I don't feel like I've arrived yet. So why should I celebrate this big milestone when I don't fully feel like I've arrived yet. But then I started literally thinking to myself this past week that has no energy to welcome more abundance in your life by not appreciating what you've already what you already have and equally how far you've come. If you don't take time to stop and celebrate, right? It's just it's not going to be Be an attraction for more, right. And so I literally out of the blue on Monday, because I've had this champagne bottle, I didn't bring it in. But I've had this champagne bottle that literally says drink when you hit over when $1 million in sales. And I didn't even see it. But I was like, Oh yeah, I have that bottle in the fridge. I'm gonna do that Friday, like I finally felt ready. And you're never gonna feel fully ready. But I finally felt ready enough to not only celebrate with myself, but celebrate with you celebrate with my family, celebrate with my team, give value to you give love and support to you. And it felt really empowering. I took my power back again, I didn't allow other people's judgement, or what they're going to say or what they're going to think, to stop me from celebrating from stopping me to shout from the rooftops. We have been so conditioned as women, to play small to be small to not ask for more. I would love to pull up the statistics of how often people excuse me how often women go in for like job offers, like, it's a pretty high statistic, I do know that and don't ask for more. But they're so qualified. But men literally will negotiate over and over and over again to get more when they are actually typically less qualified in this type of scenario. And it's not this stuff is not going to change until we start speaking up, right until we start taking up more space and literally bragging and shouting from the rooftops and celebrating right like, it is like my vibe is so different today than it was yesterday. Because I'm allowing myself to be seen and heard, it doesn't mean that it's still not scary. It doesn't mean that still stuff could happen. But I'm okay with it. And that is one of the biggest lessons that if you are gonna go on this journey of well, you have to be okay with not everyone being okay with it. You have to be okay. If people talk about you, they unfriend you, they unsubscribe from your email list. They don't fulfill their payments. They're like this is stuff that's not talked about, but you get to you get to be okay with it. You get to work on yourself so much that it doesn't bother you. And it's so easy to sit back. Like I think of like my old identity. If I was watching this masterclass and be like, so easy for you to say Right? Like, but truly, it's not like it's not. And so the more you can work on yourself and allow it to be okay, doesn't mean that's not still gonna hurt your acumen, right. But just so important to work through it, which is why the coaching support is just invaluable, because you're able to have safe containers to be like, Okay, I'm a little hurt right now. And I need to work through this. And the more you work through it with other people with tools and resources that you learn over time, you can bounce back faster, right? It doesn't like consume you for weeks, if not months, or if not years, right. And so that is just huge. I also want you to know, the path is going to be completely messy, it's going to be completely unclear. I've had to fire team members that were just terrible, meaning like, out of alignment, lying to me. You know, just completely creating not a good vibe in my world. And those conversations are not fun. I never want to do them, right. I've done I put this in quotes. But I've done investments that didn't feel the best. But that business even if you're a coach or mentor however you like, want to label yourself. Every single business owner no matter what you're selling, no matter what you're doing, your business is gonna have highs and lows. Every single business, if you invest in the stock market, you can literally see the graphs of companies because they're public, they have to show them but every single business no matter even Netflix, even Disney, even, you know target whatever company you love to go shop at. They have highs and lows, highs and lows, and there's so many factors that contribute to that. So even if you are a coach or a mentor or an encourager or whatever you want to label yourself, you do not have to be perfect. That has been probably one of the biggest lessons I've had to learn and work through like, Okay, I don't have to be perfect, right? Like I'm gonna have highs and lows in my own business. Right. And equally being a coach and a mentor is not the only thing that I do from a financial app. like to build my wealthy vehicle, right? Like, I'm not about just doing one thing, like I didn't start off calling myself a coach or a mentor. And I think that's important to acknowledge of like, I've earned that title. I didn't just start calling myself that one day, and never had challenges never sold or done other things, right? Like, I earned that title. And I keep earning that title every single day that I'm here. And I think that's important, because you just see so many people on the online space that just like pop up, and they're like, oh, my gosh, I'm a coach. I'm a mentor. And it's like, but how did you earn that? Right? Like, I did not start calling myself that until like probably 12 or 13 years into my journey of being some sort of entrepreneur, whether it was a social entrepreneur in the nonprofit space, to the for profit to selling other things, doing other things, being involved in other things, right. And so I just think that's so important of like, who you're subscribing to, and who you're learning from, and like just taking a lot of responsibility, a lot of responsibility for it. So yeah, I've been clueless, I've been hurt. I've been frustrated. I been talked bad about, I didn't speak up for myself at times. And I've wanted to give up so many times, even in my nonprofit, I wanted to give up so many times, and there's always some one or something that pulls me back in. And it's normal to want to give up when it feels so hard. A lot of our trauma responses are to run it. It's just normal. I didn't see parents that had big goals and dreams that were wanting to build wealth Right. Like I I don't know what has been in me of like, why I am the way that I am. Like, I have had every reason not to do what I've done. And like so out over the last five years. I've had every curveball thrown at me like on paper, I should not have $1 million in sales. Like let's just think about it for a second. Like I have the smallest following ever for small and mighty I love every single human. But typically other people with this milestone have huge followings. I have not spent a ton of I on add. A lot of people with this milestone been $40,000 a month on ads, like crazy amounts of money, right? I would much rather give you that money than Mark Zuckerberg, I'm just saying, I'll probably get flagged for that. But that's why we do giveaways. That's why we literally do anything we can to like organically grow because I would rather you get the money in some way, shape or form. So just keep that in mind when you're being a part of the wealthy Queen movement of like, anytime I can, I would much rather pay you okay. But it, I just want you to know that there's gonna be challenges. So even if you're apart, like if you're in your entrepreneur journey already, sometimes they can just remind you of like, okay, I'm not alone. So small and mighty file following, not a ton and add money. I'm literally the most limited schedule ever because I had Emma did not have childcare that I had a little bit of childcare, then I got more childcare, like two days a week, but then the pandemic happened. So then I went down to nothing, then I had more childcare. So it's been so inconsistent, right. And then I broke my tailbone, I got diagnosed with ADHD. And then, you know, soon after we had, we got pregnant with Boone, we got a puppy in there, like, there's been so much life that has happened in these last five years. And so I just want to remind you of like, you can do this with a small following. You can do this with a small ad account, or no ads, you can do this with no ad, you can do this with a learning disability, you can do this with Kid, you can do this. With a day job, you can do this, you can do this, you can do this, you can do this. And as long as you want it, and as long as you're willing to fight for it. It will happen. Everyone's timeline is different. There are coaches in the online space that have made more than me in a shorter amount of time. And I'm going to be real with you. It starts to like, eat at you if you're like shit, like, what's wrong with me? Right. And I have been really working hard on taking a step back and saying those people do not have kids. They may have a learning disability, or may they they may not I don't know, but they don't have kids. Right? They, they it was their time. Right. And that was their journey. That was their story. Right? I know my journey. I know my potential and even though it hasn't like I want a $10 million company and more. But I also am thankful that I don't don't yet have that. Because it like, you're like, it could be more to sustain it, right? Every company needs energy to be able to, like, keep going, right? It needs. It needs support and need strategy it needs, tweaking and modifying, modifying. So although we haven't reached, you know, bigger milestones yet, instead of being like, Ah, why not me? Say, Okay, my journey is different. And that's okay. Like that has really helped me because it's so easy to compare. It's so easy to have impostor syndrome, it's so easy to question yourself of like, you know, okay, I'm just gonna, I'm gonna throw in the towel, because I haven't like hit those milestones yet. But literally, my Emma is going to kindergarten, Boone is going into full time childcare, like I keep telling the team, I'm just so excited to see what we're capable of. Because having the bandwidth to scale a company is necessary. And so I'm actually truly thankful like I am, like, universe, please hear me. I've worked through this mindset block, because I am so thankful that one, my business has been super steady. And it's grown slowly, which has been able to allow me to be the mother that I actually wanted to be like, That's what I asked for from the universe, like, I'm gonna get a little emotional because when I left the nonprofit, the goal wasn't $10 million dollars. I told the universe, the goal is time freedom, so I can be the mom that I want to be. And I've been able to be there for my family in ways that I probably would have not been able to, if I didn't have the courage to speak up for myself and make a change. Even though I was clueless. Even though I the vision was so foggy, it was so muddy, it was so unclear. And it's been messy as hell. But these last five years, I've had such a steady, consistent business that has just been able to change so many lives, including my own, like, I'm so glad that I've been able to be there for our daughter and support her and help her thrive like she's going to kindergarten and different human truly like if you know her story, if you know our story, you know. And now with Boone, like I've been able for almost six months to be present for him like has it been fucking hard at times? Yes. But that's six months, most moms get six weeks. And so I've I like for the when he like first rolled over i solid, right? Like we've been able to have cuddles together and laughs together. And just like I asked the universe for that. And so now I'm getting ready for the next Ask. And so I just want you to be patient in your journey. Although it's fucking hard, I get it. Take a moment to celebrate, go buy some cheesecake, go buy some champagne, go buy some crazy obnoxious balloons that literally like as you're walking through the parking lot, or like, like, the wind is so crazy, like, go celebrate how far you've come. And there are celebrations don't say that they're not because there are and I know that there are, I don't I want you to take some time to celebrate. And that I wanted to model that for you today. Because I've been putting it off and putting it off and putting it off. And I just feel this new identity, like coming out. And I just can't wait for you to be on this journey. But this is not just my wealthy journey. This is not just my dreams. It's your dreams, too. And I could literally keep talking of all the lessons that I've learned all the blessings that have been created. So this is literally a small glimpse, a small scratch on the surface. But I wanted it to be encouraging for you. I wanted it to like, be real and raw and vulnerable. But the most important thing that I need you to hear is if you want it, okay, whatever it is that you want. So like, what do you want, has been one of my favorite questions. That's literally how I transitioned out of the nonprofit I literally had somebody asked me, like I'm asking you right now, what do you want? What do you want? Like, what do you want? And it sounds like the notebook saying like, what do you want? And she goes, it's not that simple. And I get it, I get it. But like what do you want? get obsessed with this question, because until we know what do you want, the path is not going to reveal itself to you. So once we do know what you want, it doesn't mean that the path isn't clear. But the first step is going to appear that you take that step, then the next step appear, and the next step and the next step, just as if you are climbing a staircase. Okay, just as if you are climbing a staircase, the only way to get to step number two to two is to literally take step one, step two, step three, step four, you don't need to worry about step 20 until you get to 19. Right. So we're so good at as humans of thinking of future problems, like, oh my gosh, like, what am I gonna do? When that happens? It's like, just worry about that at step number 19. Let's worry about step one, two and three. Okay, step one, two, and three. So step one is What do you want? Do not go to step number two, on the staircase, your staircase to Well, okay. Toby, know, what do you want? What do you want, and this can be evolving thing, okay. But we need something to grass, we need something to fight for. And it needs to be specific. Okay. So I wanted to have the time freedom. So I could be the mother and the wife that I truly deep down desired. And it's so important to me, it was so important to me to I didn't not I didn't want to have to call off work. I didn't want to have to ask permission. That is like one of the most freeing things as a woman, like I've already made it. Like, if that was my goal, like, I've already made it. I've already made it. Everything else is icing on the cake. Because that identity of myself. That's what she truly wanted when she was on step number one. That's what she said to the universe, guess what the universe started to provide. Okay, so step number two, is literally deciding. I'm getting like notifications in my ear. Literally deciding, okay? The what? We already know the why. Okay, so step number two is the what, what do we need to do to make this happen for your why? Okay, everything goes back to the why, all day, every day, when you like, you know how sometimes people say, Oh, I've taken five steps forward and 10 steps back, if you visualize that on a staircase, okay, sometimes we need to go back to step number one of like, Why? Why am I doing this? Go back to basics, go back to the why expecially if you are a seasoned entrepreneur, maybe we've lost our path. I've I've lost my path. Okay. So go back, go back to step number one, why do you want this? Why are you here? What is important to you, okay, and what are we going to do to make it happen? So the what is the step number two, so just like kind of RE, like framing my journey, when somebody said, What do you want? Okay, why do you want it right? Like, what is it? Okay, step number one, I was like, I literally want to have that time freedom. Okay, so then I stepped on to step number two is like, Okay, what do we need to do to make that happen? Well, instantly, it was clear as day that although I freaking love building a nonprofit organization for 10 years, and putting my blood sweat, tears, money, everything into it to get it up and running and thriving, still thriving to this day, 17 years later, which is unheard of, of a nonprofit, and supporting 1000s of families that have cancer. So we're gonna celebrate that for a hot second, but it was like, I can't work there. 60 to 80 hours a week, there's only so many hours in the day, right? So I need time to be able to create the plan, right? Like I need time to be able to figure out what the next step is, right. So it was I stayed on step number two for a really long time. It took me a year and a half to transition out of the nonprofit. Thankfully, Emma kind of sped that up because we got pregnant with her. It's like, well, babies come coming. Okay. So I have baby that I go to step number three, which is like, how are we actually gonna make happen? Okay, so the what is like what we need to do, but then the How would like, how do we get to step number two, to like all the two. So then we start building out your wealthy vehicle, okay, this is where I come in. This is where the wealthy Queen movement comes in. If you've been confused on what the fuck do we actually do? That is it. We help you go, step three, step four, step five, step six, keep on going. Anytime you go. And you take steps, five steps forward, and we needed like, go back, we go back, then we go back up, right, we're gonna get like, if you track your steps, all girl we are gonna get so many motherfucking steps up and down, up and down, up and down. Because guess what, that's a business. That's life. Right? It's not just going to be this beautiful. Villa, we're just skipping up the stairs, and we're not even breaking a sweat that would be lying to you. That would be lying to you. But when you don't have to go and go from staircase to scared staircase and over and over and over again and you're like, I don't even know what I'm doing, you're blindfolded, you're confused. You're like, where are the steps? Right? We don't want you to fall. So take the blindfold off, focus on one wealthy staircase. Okay, that's what we help you do. It's gonna look different for each and every person. Some people want to go to millions, some don't. Okay, so your, your, your staircase is shorter. That's okay. Right. But the biggest thing that I want you to figure out is what type of life do you desire? Because then we want a wealthy vehicle to fund that, like, Is your life gonna cost you $500,000? If we were to add up everything that you desire, right, like, let's put a price tag on everything that you desire, because some people want a million dollar home. And some people want a tiny home, some people want an RV, some people want to be a nomad. Some people want to fly private. And some people literally want to stay in their backyard, and never see a human right. There's money involved in all of these, but it is different. So deciding what that lifestyle is, is one of the most valuable things that you can do. Which is why I'm done apologizing for wanting a big ass life. That's what I want doesn't have to be what you want. But my staircase looks different. Because of that reason, okay. And so we've got to have clarity and the lifestyle that you desire, because we want to shape and mold everything to that. And equally, you feel like you're fighting for something so magical, when it's about you, when it's about your family. Like if you desire to take your kids to Disney World, and you keep visualizing it, right like of that day that they walk in. Oh, does it light your heart up, right. And so it's just so important to remind yourself of the why all the whys as many wives as you possibly can have, the more the merrier, because this journey isn't easy. But it can be easier. So that's really where the wealthy Queen movement comes in. Please tune in to all of the making of the movement documented, like Docu series, the behind the scenes as we release them. So make sure you're on our email list. Because just like this is, like I said, I weren't just scratching the surface, there's so much more, but I would literally be talking to out for hours. And that's just not even possible with a baby. And equally, I'm gonna get hungry and thirsty and hot, like I already feel hot. But I just did want to, like, let you in to my heart and just be real and raw with you. And just most importantly, remind you that you can do this too. Like I promised the universe years ago, I remember rocking and legislate. And it was one it was in one of my launches, that was not a business launch. And it felt so hard. And I remember rocking her to sleep. And I remember having tears run down my face. And I remember saying to myself, when I figure this out, I promise I'll go back and help other women, like when I figure this out, because this feels so hard. And I want to give up, I want to run away. But I know I'm not going to. So when I do figure this out, I'm gonna go back and help women. It's just who I am. It's what I'm destined to do. And I am just so excited to be able to be in a position to do this. And take you on this journey. I am far from done. far from done. But I'm stepping into celebrating because it's taken so many versions of myself to get here. And I want to keep taking you on this journey. And I want to help you, I want to help you. This is not just about me, this is about you. Please, please, please know that. So in order to help you I always say you can absolutely access our free podcast that has over 250 episodes. Like so much gold is on there, you can access that you can literally like hang out with me on social media and get you know, love and inspiration and little tidbits right? You can buy a course or two. But how I can deeply support you is us getting together us becoming married was like what I call it. When we're married. We're committed, right? Like if you're married right now, like, is there rocky times? For sure. Are there amazing times? Absolutely. Right. There's lots of communication, there's partnership, right? And so even if you don't have that in like an intimate relationship, I really want you to know what it feels like to have that in a professional relationship. And so like this is me like I'm gonna get on like, should I get on one knee right now like I've done I don't think I've ever done this on a masterclass Holy shit. And I just feel called to do this. We're gonna like move over unicorn balloons. I don't have fireworks for you, but I've got, I've got an eight I am able, I'm going to even take off my ring. I should I don't even have like a ring pop, like, will you marry me? Will you go on this wealthy journey because the last thing that I want for you is just to watch on the sidelines. And keep waiting and keep waiting and keep waiting. Because the number one enemy of wealth of your big ass life is denial that you want it and delaying it. And we can't keep delaying it because we don't feel ready. Which is why I'm modeling today of being loud and proud and celebrating and not holding back. And it's not easy to do. But I wanted to model that for you. So will you marry me, and how I would love for you to marry me is a truly a no brainer. Like it is a no freakin brainer. It is called our wealthy mama program. Okay. And it is a shorter term program. It's a launch pad for literally the main principles that I there's no way I could pack them into today. Today was really like the why is this important? And the what and then the wealthy mama program is really the house. Okay, so I'm gonna go ahead and pull up, just all the juiciness of this program so you can hear it. But literally, you have a huge opportunity. It's 90% off as you're watching this masterclass for a couple hours, you're gonna use code, Mama and a m a nine, zero and Mama is capitalized, okay. So the reason why I want you in this program is it like I said, it is a launching pad, okay, it is going to give us momentum, okay, it's going to give us literally the basics of what we need, it is focused more on personal development, because the next invitation after wealthy Mama is more the wealth vehicle. So we're gonna talk a little bit about that. But there's so many other things to set you up for long term success, and I need you to do. And so just like my journey, I started literally focusing on myself. So this I'm literally taking that journey and formulating it into a program. Okay, and speeding it up. Because now that I like I actually know what the fuck I'm doing. I can speed it up for you, right? But it's strategic that it's like, we've got to focus on you first, because your business can never outgrow you. So actually slowing down to pay attention to you is one of the best investments we can do to then speed up the rest, which will be the next program and I'm so fucking excited about it. So this is like step number one, okay, is so important. This is well, technically this is step three, right? 123 This is step three, and we're gonna be together for about 13 weeks, okay? And then you'll get an invitation to really like, pour gasoline on your wealth vehicle and a really fun, magical sexy way more on that later. Okay, but right now, what I need you to do is commit to step number three, which is joining the wealthy mama and you're getting 90% off. If you wait, you'll pay full price. Okay, that is what it is.
