- 2:10[SPEAKER_01]: Now listen, a lot of people talk about success when they already had a roadmap.
- 2:16[SPEAKER_01]: But what happens when you're forced to figure it out with no blueprint?
- 2:20[SPEAKER_01]: no guidance and no safety net because if you don't understand how to turn confusion into clarity you'll stay stuck working hard with no real direction.
- 2:30[SPEAKER_01]: Today's guest is somebody who didn't just learn a skill she had to learn how to survive.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_01]: how to pivot and how to build in real time.
- 2:41[SPEAKER_01]: From navigating life without a clear path to stepping into a tax industry and realizing that having a skill is not the same thing as building a business.

- 2:55[SPEAKER_01]: And in this episode, we're breaking down what it really takes to go from figuring it out to creating opportunities, not just for yourself, but for others.
- 3:04[SPEAKER_01]: But here's the real question.
- 3:06[SPEAKER_01]: What happens when you finally get the knowledge, but still don't have the structure to win ladies and gentlemen?
- 3:13[SPEAKER_01]: I am bringing with me inside the vaults.
- 3:16[SPEAKER_01]: Miss Cheyenne, Dreyenne.
- 3:20[SPEAKER_00]: What an intro.
- 3:21[SPEAKER_00]: I'm great.
- 3:22[SPEAKER_01]: How are you?
- 3:23[SPEAKER_01]: Don't well.
- 3:24[SPEAKER_01]: It's a pleasure to connect with you because I feel like, you know, you are somebody who had to figure a lot of things out like the intro says, but you've been able to figure it out at a high level.
- 3:41[SPEAKER_01]: uh... you've been able to use um... pain uh... turn into purpose uh... you've built a a beautiful life for you and your family uh... and to see uh... you know you i i don't think you look like what you've been through i like that and and and we call the show inside the vault because our goal right the most valuable thing in a bank is is held in the vault
- 4:08[SPEAKER_01]: The vote is our mind.
- 4:10[SPEAKER_01]: I feel like you have something that women specifically
- 4:17[SPEAKER_01]: of all people, but women specifically need because I think there's a lot of women that go through crowds and tribulations and a lot of people don't make it out.
- 4:24[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 4:25[SPEAKER_01]: And so I want this show, this is my intention, right?
- 4:28[SPEAKER_01]: My intention is that this show is gonna bless someone.
- 4:32[SPEAKER_01]: This show is going to somebody's, somebody's having an issue, somebody's trying to figure things out, somebody like their passes is holding them hostage and I want this show to be able to free them.
- 4:46[SPEAKER_01]: So no pressure, but before we start, for those who don't know who is Cheyenne Dream.
- 4:52[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so I'm a mother of three beautiful boys, they actually, I became a mother as a teenager.
- 5:03[SPEAKER_00]: I had three kids under the age of three by the time I was 23.
- 5:08[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I grew up, my parents were addicted to drugs.
- 5:13[SPEAKER_00]: They abandoned me at 11 years old, I didn't see them until 11 years after that.
- 5:18[SPEAKER_00]: Um, so I really had to figure things out on my own, um, and when you grow up like that, right?
- 5:23[SPEAKER_00]: Like, you tend to get stuck, right?
- 5:26[SPEAKER_00]: You tend to feel like, okay, do I deserve more?
- 5:30[SPEAKER_00]: But ever since I was little, I knew that I deserve more.
- 5:32[SPEAKER_00]: I just didn't know what it looked like.
- 5:34[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 5:34[SPEAKER_00]: And I didn't have anybody to show me the way.
- 5:38[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, now I'm here.
- 5:39[SPEAKER_00]: Um, I, I'm very successful.
- 5:42[SPEAKER_00]: I'm very proud of myself.
- 5:44[SPEAKER_00]: I built something
- 5:48[SPEAKER_00]: And I walk in that every single day.
- 5:50[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
- 5:51[SPEAKER_01]: Multiple seven figure business owner, earner, you're building other six or seven figure business owners, which is something to definitely be proud of.
- 6:04[SPEAKER_01]: Take me back to your childhood, right?
- 6:08[SPEAKER_01]: Growing up with, you know, you said both of your parents were addicted to drugs, growing up in that type of environment, what?
- 6:17[SPEAKER_01]: You know, what are some of the things you saw and how did that shape you early on?
- 6:26[SPEAKER_00]: So I could remember everything from my childhood.
- 6:29[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I can't really remember what happened yesterday, but I could remember everything.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_00]: My earliest memory, I was three and a half years old.
- 6:37[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I was molested by somebody that lived in the same shelter as me.
- 6:44[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we were homeless to the point where we didn't have food.
- 6:48[SPEAKER_00]: We didn't have lights in our house, we didn't have clothes.
- 6:51[SPEAKER_00]: I would have to go door-to-door with my brother who's two years older than me.
- 6:56[SPEAKER_00]: I'm asking people for money just so that we can eat, going to the city bus stations, begging people for money.
- 7:01[SPEAKER_01]: Will you go grow up?
- 7:02[SPEAKER_00]: Worcester Massachusetts.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_00]: It's a city, a small city, a Massachusetts, and I saw the drugs, I saw all the money, and I was just like, oh my goodness, I remember my mom's drug dealer was coming into the house, and I'm just like, if I had that, I'm going to be good.
- 7:20[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 7:21[SPEAKER_00]: So I got into the streets at a very young age and it carried into my adulthood.
- 7:28[SPEAKER_01]: And when you say you got into the streets, what were you?
- 7:31[SPEAKER_00]: Like soul drugs.
- 7:31[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 7:32[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 7:33[SPEAKER_00]: I did.
- 7:34[SPEAKER_00]: And I actually, as an adult, I got rated.
- 7:36[SPEAKER_00]: I lost my children, they're back now, but you know, that's my story and you know, when you grow up, like that, you're in survival mode, right?
- 7:48[SPEAKER_00]: And you live in a way of scarcity, like what's going to be my next.
- 7:53[SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't even matter how much money you make.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 7:56[SPEAKER_00]: And nothing has ever enough.
- 7:57[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 7:58[SPEAKER_00]: And I just one day made a decision.
- 8:00[SPEAKER_00]: Like I don't want to keep living like this.
- 8:01[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_00]: I deserve more.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_00]: I'm worth more.
- 8:04[SPEAKER_00]: And I made a decision that, you know, I don't care what it takes and that's when I found the tax industry.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_00]: I don't care what it takes.
- 8:12[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have a plan B.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_00]: This is my only way out.
- 8:14[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 8:15[SPEAKER_00]: And I just went all in and I was able to scale to over 300 tax professionals my first year in the tax industry.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 8:24[SPEAKER_00]: My first year I made like $464,000.
- 8:28[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and then that's the whole other thing in itself, the tax law.
- 8:33[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, how did you, how did you stumble across a bunch of access?
- 8:37[SPEAKER_01]: So like, you're, you're, okay, so, so, so, so Pamela's on drugs, you're industries.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_01]: You're going through some horrific things as a child, you know, teenage mom, three young kids, selling drugs, rated everything taken away from you.
- 9:04[SPEAKER_01]: Give me that, what is that turning point for you?
- 9:06[SPEAKER_01]: Like, like, to me and you correct me if I'm wrong, like that almost sounds like rock bottom.
- 9:14[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, like your, you know, your parents are on drugs, you're realizing, you're, you're seeing a drug dealers, you're, you know, there's a, there's a, a law, if you will, to say, hey, I want what they have, because I'm poor.
- 9:28[SPEAKER_01]: I'm shelters, we can't eat.
- 9:30[SPEAKER_01]: So I want to,
- 9:32[SPEAKER_01]: you know, survival mode almost, right?
- 9:34[SPEAKER_01]: I want to, I'm going to sell drugs, so I can, right?
- 9:38[SPEAKER_01]: Do you get to a level of success where you have money now and then it gets ripped away from you and then you have to build back, like get to the fill in that gap for me before we get to the before we get to the sex.
- 9:50[SPEAKER_00]: All right, so I remember, you know, just starting out, I'm obviously a female, right?
- 9:56[SPEAKER_00]: And I didn't always look like this.
- 9:57[SPEAKER_00]: I was a little rougher on that, all right, this is part
- 10:02[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but, you know, I wanted to be the best at whatever it is that I'm doing.
- 10:07[SPEAKER_00]: So that's what I strive to do even in that world.
- 10:10[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 10:10[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and I just, you know, got deeper and deeper into that life.
- 10:15[SPEAKER_01]: And when you, when you move it, like, what were you like, were you moving, like, like, like, no, like, big, big, big weight from like different countries and stuff.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so you had, you had the old, you had the old, you had the old, you had the old, you had the keys, I was making a lot of money, yeah, what's a lot of money like honestly I was probably making like $10,000 a day and profit are okay.
- 10:42[SPEAKER_00]: And it still was like, I didn't have anything.
- 10:47[SPEAKER_00]: Like, you were still stuck in a box.
- 10:49[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people think that that life because it's quick money, it's like, freedom, but really, like, you're tied down.
- 10:55[SPEAKER_00]: Like, these people may need you.
- 10:56[SPEAKER_00]: You can't even go to the park.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_00]: You have to go because somebody's calling you.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_00]: Your kids are mad.
- 11:00[SPEAKER_00]: Mom, we just got to the park.
- 11:02[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it was, it was a lot.
- 11:03[SPEAKER_00]: And my rock bottom was, because it wasn't the money.
- 11:07[SPEAKER_00]: The money was there.
- 11:08[SPEAKER_00]: It was good money.
- 11:12[SPEAKER_00]: I got robbed.
- 11:14[SPEAKER_00]: And that was the start of it.
- 11:19[SPEAKER_00]: Well, the start of me wanting to change.
- 11:21[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 11:21[SPEAKER_00]: I got robbed.
- 11:22[SPEAKER_00]: I could have died.
- 11:24[SPEAKER_01]: And a kid in that pistol whip and hurt or just.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_00]: So I went to go meet the person.
- 11:31[SPEAKER_00]: And this person was somebody that I met all the time, right?
- 11:36[SPEAKER_00]: Got back to my house and it was all fake.
- 11:39[SPEAKER_00]: So it was like $60,000 worth of fake stuff.
- 11:42[SPEAKER_00]: Now, if I were to look at the stuff right in front of him, he was gonna get that regardless, right?
- 11:48[SPEAKER_00]: So it wasn't a scary situation.
- 11:51[SPEAKER_00]: God is watching over me.
- 11:53[SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't a scary situation, but it was an eye opener.
- 11:57[SPEAKER_00]: This could have went a totally different way.
- 11:59[SPEAKER_00]: Because you're not about to rob me either.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_00]: But then again, I have kids.
- 12:04[SPEAKER_00]: So that was a start of it.
- 12:06[SPEAKER_00]: And then, you know, I...
- 12:10[SPEAKER_00]: I'm very in tune with God, my middle child was diagnosed with the terminal disease called Dushen Musker Dishofi.
- 12:19[SPEAKER_00]: Around that time, I did step away from church because I just couldn't understand why he would allow a child to suffer in that way.
- 12:28[SPEAKER_00]: But I knew that I needed to go back to church.
- 12:31[SPEAKER_00]: So as I'm going back to church and I'm reestablishing that relationship with God,
- 12:40[SPEAKER_00]: So when I had got rated, I knew that that was an answered prayer and I was just like I didn't know what was gonna look like this.
- 12:47[SPEAKER_00]: And I started Tax classes a few months before that I got rated and I was in jail
- 12:56[SPEAKER_00]: they held me on a dangerousness.
- 12:58[SPEAKER_00]: I was in jail and I was just thinking to myself, God, if you just give me one more chance, I will never go back to that life.
- 13:06[SPEAKER_00]: And it was definitely, it woke me up, you know, I lost my kids.
- 13:11[SPEAKER_00]: That was the reason why I go so hard.
- 13:14[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and
- 13:16[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, that fire in me is just something that nobody can take for me.
- 13:21[SPEAKER_01]: Wow, wow, what was the two questions?
- 13:26[SPEAKER_01]: What was the circumstances of the raid?
- 13:30[SPEAKER_01]: Like, where are they watching you where you're in the investigation?
- 13:33[SPEAKER_01]: Like, what made them raid you?
- 13:35[SPEAKER_01]: But then also prior to the raid, you said, you were doing taxes on the side, who introduced you to taxes, you know, at that time?
- 13:45[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, they were watching me and for like a few months and I got introduced to the tax industry.
- 13:54[SPEAKER_00]: There was a girl from my city that had just moved to Atlanta and she was in the tax industry so I had joined her team first and that's how I got into it.
- 14:06[SPEAKER_01]: and what's you making big money like did you like what what made you say right you making $10,000 a day you live in this life you you you got this sign load I need to pull back a little bit but I mean I know when you start making a lot of money it's kind of hard to like you know pull back when you what was it about the tax industry that said you know what this might this might be
- 14:33[SPEAKER_00]: I'm the type of person that I need to go get my money.
- 14:36[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 14:37[SPEAKER_00]: I want to work for it.
- 14:38[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 14:38[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want to clock into a job and get paid a set fee at the end of the week, right?
- 14:45[SPEAKER_00]: So the tax industry, you have to find your clients.
- 14:47[SPEAKER_00]: You have to go, you have to hustle.
- 14:49[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 14:50[SPEAKER_00]: That's what intrigued me because I knew that the type of person that I am.
- 14:54[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.
- 14:55[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to kill it.
- 14:56[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 14:57[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 14:58[SPEAKER_00]: That's really what I do.
- 15:00[SPEAKER_01]: I just saw you come alive though too.
- 15:01[SPEAKER_01]: Like you really yeah, because like you could you could tell somebody's hunger and like the energy like your eyes just said something I just want to point that out as you were talking like yeah, you are you go hard again.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry
- 15:15[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so I just wanted to something that, like, you know, you have to put the work in, like, it's not just handy to you.
- 15:23[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of things I could go and do, right?
- 15:25[SPEAKER_00]: A lot.
- 15:26[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 15:27[SPEAKER_00]: But I just felt like, you know, I could work from anywhere.
- 15:30[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 15:31[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I could work on an island if I wanted to.
- 15:33[SPEAKER_00]: I have, actually, you know, I don't have to miss my kids' games.
- 15:37[SPEAKER_00]: I could, if I wanted to work at the park, I could, they could go play.
- 15:40[SPEAKER_00]: Like, that's what intrigues me about this axe industry.
- 15:44[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 15:44[SPEAKER_01]: And so now, they're watching you, you get rated.
- 15:51[SPEAKER_01]: Did you have to spend time in jail like what was the outcome of that?
- 15:54[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so I went to jail for five days.
- 15:57[SPEAKER_00]: I bailed out and then that's when this was,
- 16:02[SPEAKER_00]: this is around November and then the tax season started in January.
- 16:08[SPEAKER_00]: So it was go time.
- 16:08[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 16:10[SPEAKER_01]: Did you ever get like, um, you know, what would happen with the case?
- 16:14[SPEAKER_01]: So did you ever get like convicted of anything that, you know, what was uh,
- 16:18[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's fun.
- 16:20[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.
- 16:23[SPEAKER_01]: And then, so now you, you know, did they find anything, like when they rated you, you had, you had, you had work.
- 16:34[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and then, all right, so then, it's over, right?
- 16:38[SPEAKER_01]: However, it's over, right?
- 16:42[SPEAKER_01]: You get into the tax industry, and you said, you said earlier, right?
- 16:48[SPEAKER_01]: You know, your first year, you made 400,000?
- 16:52[SPEAKER_01]: A little over 400,000.
- 16:54[SPEAKER_01]: Talk a little bit about that, like, you know, God give you the second chance and give me your opportunity to now
- 17:02[SPEAKER_01]: do it differently, right?
- 17:03[SPEAKER_01]: Talk a little bit about that.
- 17:05[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
- 17:06[SPEAKER_00]: So, I can remember, right?
- 17:09[SPEAKER_00]: It's coming up April, and it's the end of the tax season.
- 17:12[SPEAKER_00]: And I have all this money.
- 17:18[SPEAKER_00]: But the clients are not there anymore, right?
- 17:20[SPEAKER_00]: So, there's no more money coming in.
- 17:23[SPEAKER_00]: I invested into mentorship.
- 17:28[SPEAKER_00]: one mentor and then another mentor another another another another and then I just realize like I'm trying to pay for instant gratification when it's inside of me already I have all the tools right so
- 17:44[SPEAKER_00]: I just realized that I have everything that I need to really scale my business.
- 17:50[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have to keep spending all of my money.
- 17:52[SPEAKER_00]: God doesn't bless you with money to just give it all away.
- 17:55[SPEAKER_00]: That's a fact.
- 17:56[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, I just...
- 18:03[SPEAKER_00]: I just really focused on growing a team because I know in the tax industry that's like, you know, you want to create a huge team because you, you know, can make income by doing nothing, essentially.
- 18:16[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I just worked on pouring everything into my team, everything into my team.
- 18:20[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm not going to lie.
- 18:22[SPEAKER_00]: It's not like,
- 18:25[SPEAKER_00]: every single day because I waste a lot of money like the my first year, right?
- 18:30[SPEAKER_00]: And because I I wasn't used to that much money at one time and I always thought okay like and you know the other life you're going to get it the next day, you know exactly who's calling you, you know their schedules, you know how many times and it's just consistent.
- 18:48[SPEAKER_00]: It's not like that in the tax industry, so that I feel like was a big struggle for me, and that was also an eye-opener when I realized, okay, but I feel like I had to happen, right?
- 19:00[SPEAKER_00]: Because when you're coming into a whole bunch of money, you have to learn certain things in order to obtain the amount of success that you're about to be blessed with.
- 19:10[SPEAKER_01]: I agree.
- 19:10[SPEAKER_00]: So imagine 400,000, imagine 10 million, and you don't know what to do with it.
- 19:18[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I love it and then and then so at what moment because I think one of the things I love about your story Is that not not not only did you figure it out You decided to take that knowledge and help others figure it out too.
- 19:36[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, you know why are you passionate about giving back?
- 19:42[SPEAKER_00]: So one of the reasons why I'm passionate about giving a back is because nobody gave anything to me, right?
- 19:48[SPEAKER_00]: Not saying that I was looking for any handouts, but if you have somebody that's like, hey, like, come this way or this, this, you could be doing this instead.
- 19:56[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, um, who knows where I would have been, but I'm here for a reason, right?
- 20:01[SPEAKER_00]: But a lot of people just need that one person to be able to tell them like, no, you could do it this way and you can have success, you can live a happy life.
- 20:11[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people are stuck doing it their way, not realizing that, you know, there's over that, you know, that, that hill that you can't see, if you just have that leap of faith and just do things differently, you know, nothing changes, if nothing changes.
- 20:29[SPEAKER_00]: really meditate on that because it's the truth.
- 20:32[SPEAKER_00]: I say that to myself every single day, because we're human, we make mistakes.
- 20:36[SPEAKER_00]: Every single day you have to choose, I want to be the higher version of myself today.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_00]: And it's a choice, right?
- 20:42[SPEAKER_00]: Like I could choose to not get up at a bed.
- 20:45[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but what drives me to really help people is to see their success, um, to see their growth, like where they start.
- 20:52[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people don't even know how to use social media, right?
- 20:55[SPEAKER_00]: I teach them marketing and just to see their growth and how confident they are and, you know, go from not making any money or struggling, there's girls on my team that, um, lost their car.
- 21:06[SPEAKER_00]: We're sleeping in their car, um, glossed their jobs, um, domestic violence abuse relationships
- 21:13[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's not only your building of business but your building people's lives and that truly is what drives me.
- 21:23[SPEAKER_00]: I'm very passionate about that.
- 21:25[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and I love that.
- 21:27[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that that's what are the beauties of us going to where we go to, right?
- 21:33[SPEAKER_01]: Like you said, you know, a lot of the things that you went through.
- 21:39[SPEAKER_01]: you know, have worked for your greater good, right?
- 21:42[SPEAKER_01]: And so, you know, I believe this, right, the good, the bad and ugly, all are working for your greater good.
- 21:47[SPEAKER_01]: And so, you know, and I'm glad we're having this conversation, because like I said, I wanted to make sure that this interview is blessing somebody, and I know it has already
- 21:57[SPEAKER_01]: Um, because again, like I like I alluded to and I knew nothing about this, right?
- 22:01[SPEAKER_01]: Like it like full transparency Um, you know, you know, I kept asking my talent book and I'm like, you know, I need a buy or I need a buy or I need a buy or and there wasn't really Um, I didn't, you know, I didn't have a buy or right, I had talking points and I'm like man.
- 22:16[SPEAKER_01]: Like it's like something told me that there's like a deeper story, you know, um, and you know my intuition was right because I feel like You know, and I'm actually publicly putting you on the hook now And I'm doing this purposely because I feel like you have to share your story more And a reason why you have to share your story more is because again there's so many people
- 22:41[SPEAKER_01]: that have gone to what you've gone through, you know, and there's people who have gone through it.
- 22:52[SPEAKER_01]: But, and I'm not saying God didn't favor them, but...
- 22:58[SPEAKER_01]: they're still stuck.
- 23:00[SPEAKER_01]: And they need an example of somebody who's been through that life, but they need to know it though.
- 23:06[SPEAKER_01]: Like if you don't talk about it enough, or if you don't share your story enough, I don't think people will know.
- 23:13[SPEAKER_01]: I think that when you look at your life now,
- 23:22[SPEAKER_01]: it looks like you got it together.
- 23:23[SPEAKER_01]: It looks like you always had it together and I think sometimes the the back story is important sometimes sharing you know how you know like I actually believe that that's that's the only way you prove God.
- 23:37[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know like like I you know I've been through you know some things you know as a child as well.
- 23:44[SPEAKER_01]: I've tried him.
- 23:46[SPEAKER_01]: I'm at a space where I am.
- 23:48[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm always remind not for me.
- 23:50[SPEAKER_01]: I don't need the reminder of Manate sandwiches.
- 23:54[SPEAKER_01]: It's been hustled in the streets to make money like I don't need the reminder But there's somebody that does there's somebody who looks at this version of ash cash right now and
- 24:08[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe may not even understand that I am you, I was you one time, you know, and I think that that that, you know, there's a, I wouldn't call it responsibility, but there is a, you know, sort of like God, I think I believe that God saves us so that we could be credible messengers.
- 24:27[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely.
- 24:29[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's very important to share your testimony, you know, you're not, you don't go through things just to keep an inside.
- 24:36[SPEAKER_00]: That's a fact.
- 24:38[SPEAKER_00]: And it molds you, it molds you.
- 24:41[SPEAKER_01]: We need that memoir.
- 24:42[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 24:44[SPEAKER_01]: That's what we need because again, there's so much I want to ask, but you know, I know my insiders and we go cliffhanger, look, you're going to have to put in the comments, you know, we want the story so that way, you're going to come back and hear the full story.
- 24:59[SPEAKER_01]: Because there's so much I want to ask, right, because you guys think, right, you touched on being a molested as a child, right?
- 25:07[SPEAKER_01]: You touched on being a teenage parent that, like, right, you know, that three kids under
- 25:14[SPEAKER_01]: Um, there's more, right, that, you know, you know, you know, selling drugs and getting caught and getting rated and then turning to like there's a lot that I feel like, um, again, there's a piece that somebody's watching right now.
- 25:31[SPEAKER_01]: they could grab from that piece, they could grab from this piece and so, you know, I want to fast forward though, right?
- 25:39[SPEAKER_01]: Because, you know, now you're more time millionaire, you're going to million dollar business, you've helped others do the same.
- 25:46[SPEAKER_01]: What is that feeling like to, again, you got your kids back?
- 25:53[SPEAKER_01]: you're making great money, your helping others make money, like, like, what does that feel like?
- 25:59[SPEAKER_01]: What is that feeling of, like, is there ever a feeling of, like, yes, I made it?
- 26:05[SPEAKER_01]: Or is it like, like, what does it feel like?
- 26:09[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have that feeling yet.
- 26:11[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have that.
- 26:12[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I made it feeling yet because my vision is so big.
- 26:16[SPEAKER_00]: And it's been so clear to me.
- 26:18[SPEAKER_00]: God has literally shown me stages that I'm going to be on.
- 26:23[SPEAKER_00]: Lives that I'm going to change.
- 26:24[SPEAKER_00]: So this is just the surface.
- 26:27[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't really need it.
- 26:29[SPEAKER_01]: You made millions of dollars.
- 26:30[SPEAKER_01]: You smell like a life.
- 26:32[SPEAKER_00]: Can they see that yet as I'm just being honest like I really feel that way.
- 26:37[SPEAKER_00]: It's it's not even about the money.
- 26:38[SPEAKER_00]: It's about the change that I'm going to be able to do for people.
- 26:42[SPEAKER_00]: Sure.
- 26:42[SPEAKER_00]: Um, that's that's really what it is.
- 26:45[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 26:46[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 26:46[SPEAKER_01]: How does someone make money beyond the tax season, right?
- 26:52[SPEAKER_01]: Because for me, I've always thought like, you know, like I was a banker.
- 26:58[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and so I had clients that were tax professionals and and there were seasons, but they made a lot of money like, you know, um, but then afterwards, if my mind I'm like, well, you only work three months and then that's it like.
- 27:14[SPEAKER_01]: if you are, you know, advising me or anybody to get into the tax game, how do you, you know, is it, is it that?
- 27:22[SPEAKER_01]: Is it just you make a whole lot of money for three months in that sit or is there a way to monetize outside of the tax season?
- 27:28[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely.
- 27:29[SPEAKER_00]: So as you know, tax season, right, people think that it is just a season.
- 27:35[SPEAKER_00]: It's not when you run a business.
- 27:36[SPEAKER_00]: If you want to side hustle,
- 27:39[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, establishing what's called monthly reoccurring revenue with like a school community or, um, you know, digital products like teaching your knowledge like selling your knowledge, right?
- 27:51[SPEAKER_00]: Um, it's, it's not, you know,
- 27:54[SPEAKER_00]: Nothing is free.
- 27:55[SPEAKER_00]: You pay to go to college.
- 27:56[SPEAKER_00]: So what's, you know, $27, you run some ads to it and the next thing you know you're waking up to $10,000 every single morning because people are buying your digital products, right?
- 28:07[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I think that it's very important to establish multiple streams of income within your business.
- 28:14[SPEAKER_00]: even let's just say McDonald's, right?
- 28:16[SPEAKER_00]: They don't just sell burgers.
- 28:19[SPEAKER_00]: They ask you, do you want to upgrade to a large fry?
- 28:21[SPEAKER_00]: It's the same thing.
- 28:22[SPEAKER_00]: Within every business, you have to figure out, okay, how can I upsell this?
- 28:26[SPEAKER_00]: How can I create more income?
- 28:31[SPEAKER_00]: When one client comes to me, how can I upsell them, how can I get more money from this person that's coming to me and return to giving them value?
- 28:44[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 28:45[SPEAKER_00]: So, I've created, you know, and I teach my team how to create monthly recurring revenue, how to, you know, build out digital products that actually sell.
- 28:56[SPEAKER_00]: how to figure out who your avatar client is or team member if you're building a team because a lot of people don't know how to market themselves and the next thing you know they're wondering why they're whole team
- 29:10[SPEAKER_00]: has no experience or not saying that that's wrong, but if you want a team that has experience, but you're saying, are you looking to get into the tax industry?
- 29:18[SPEAKER_00]: Well, you're going to get people on your team that are looking to get into the tax industry.
- 29:23[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, just, it's, yeah, like, it's, it's not just season.
- 29:28[SPEAKER_00]: There's so many different ways that you can make income within the tax industry.
- 29:31[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 29:34[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 29:35[SPEAKER_01]: What would you say so far has been your, you know, biggest success as it relates to someone else that you've taught, you know, the game.
- 29:45[SPEAKER_01]: Because I see, you know, you're always bringing in new people into your team.
- 29:50[SPEAKER_01]: What would you say is the biggest success so far?
- 29:54[SPEAKER_00]: Um, so sometimes the biggest success isn't always those big wins for me.
- 29:59[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 29:59[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, like I said, the girl that's now not sleeping in her car.
- 30:04[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 30:04[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 30:05[SPEAKER_00]: That is so powerful to me.
- 30:08[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 30:08[SPEAKER_00]: Um, of course, I do have people on my team.
- 30:11[SPEAKER_00]: They were able to move out of the state.
- 30:12[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 30:13[SPEAKER_00]: Take their kids to Disney by their dream car.
- 30:16[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 30:17[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, like they're good.
- 30:21[SPEAKER_00]: So that's, you know, the obvious success that I have, you know, helped them build, but it's, it's so small wins too where, you know, somebody that's new to the text industry on my team and now I see them every single week get in their here and they're like, you were just homeless, but it's really good to see those are wins.
- 30:39[SPEAKER_00]: And then every single year it just gets better and better and better for them.
- 30:43[SPEAKER_01]: I love that that's where you went with it, honestly, because I think that there is this because of social media and then also because of our proximity, I'll be honest with you like, you know, I talk to millionaires every day, you know, you're around millionaires every day.
- 30:59[SPEAKER_01]: So sometimes we can get, you know, sort of jaded if you will and really forget that the goal isn't to always
- 31:12[SPEAKER_01]: There are people that's dealing with real issues that just need some, they need to pay their rent, right?
- 31:21[SPEAKER_01]: They need to get their hair done.
- 31:22[SPEAKER_01]: They need to get your kids in a different school system.
- 31:28[SPEAKER_01]: Um, they need to make their own money because they might be in a domestic violence kind of situation and so, you know, we kind of, you know, I, you know, I'll, myself included like we kind of sometimes just run to sort of like that end result not realizing.
- 31:44[SPEAKER_01]: that there is that beginning part, that place where if you could just, like you said, it's simply pay a car no, get your hair done, get a place to stay, get out of that abusive sort of like relationship, right?
- 32:00[SPEAKER_01]: Like that's sort of like important.
- 32:02[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm glad that you kind of did that.
- 32:06[SPEAKER_01]: If somebody wanted to, you know, somebody's hearing you now and even like, you know,
- 32:13[SPEAKER_01]: Um, that AI is going to replace 340 million jobs, um, and so far we've seen a lot of women actually are being laid off, like it's, it's, it's really, it's getting, it's getting bad, right?
- 32:27[SPEAKER_01]: It's getting bad, um, I, I interviewed, um, less brown, the legendary less brown, and he gave a, a stat where he said that 40% of Harvard, um, graduates are moving back home, Harvard.
- 32:42[SPEAKER_01]: are moving back home and so we're having an issue, if you will, where AI is really disrupting, it's really taking over jobs and things in that nature, somebody who's in that boat, somebody who might have income volatility, somebody who might have just lost their job, they're trying to find another way to make ends meet.
- 33:07[SPEAKER_01]: Would you recommend them get into the
- 33:12[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.
- 33:14[SPEAKER_00]: So for one, it is a very crazy thing that's happening, but it's also a beautiful thing.
- 33:22[SPEAKER_00]: I just want to touch based on that real quick.
- 33:24[SPEAKER_00]: That's why you have to implement AI into your business.
- 33:27[SPEAKER_00]: And that's one thing that I also teach my team as well.
- 33:31[SPEAKER_00]: Because if you don't get with it, you're going to get lost.
- 33:34[SPEAKER_00]: because it is the new thing, but yeah, definitely, you know, the tax industry is unlike in the other business.
- 33:41[SPEAKER_00]: There's no overhead.
- 33:43[SPEAKER_00]: You don't have to, you know, pay fees or rent or anything.
- 33:46[SPEAKER_00]: You could do this all virtually.
- 33:49[SPEAKER_00]: So that's one thing about it.
- 33:52[SPEAKER_00]: You can work from anywhere.
- 33:54[SPEAKER_00]: I would definitely recommend for somebody to get into the tax industry.
- 33:58[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people think that, well, I don't know math.
- 33:59[SPEAKER_00]: You don't need to know math.
- 34:01[SPEAKER_00]: The software does everything for you, you just input, you know, what's ever on their W2 or whatever's on their forms, you just copy and paste and, you know, with AI, you just, it does it for you, just scan the paper and it just all inputs for you.
- 34:18[SPEAKER_00]: So essentially, you don't really have to do anything, you know, just your due diligence and, you know, I, anybody that I talk to that, you know, is looking for something new or changed.
- 34:32[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, get into the tax industry, like, it's a no-brainer.
- 34:36[SPEAKER_00]: Why wouldn't you?
- 34:37[SPEAKER_00]: It's just...
- 34:39[SPEAKER_00]: It's a true blessing, life-changing, your life can never look the same and the matter of four months.
- 34:44[SPEAKER_00]: What exactly is that?
- 34:45[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody has to do two things, pay taxes and die.
- 34:49[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, yes, exactly, and especially as an entrepreneur.
- 34:53[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely, yeah.
- 34:54[SPEAKER_00]: You know, you have to, you know, but that's a beautiful thing.
- 34:56[SPEAKER_00]: I was praying for those type of problems.
- 34:58[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 34:59[SPEAKER_01]: how how how are you implementing AI because I think I mean you talk to each other in a little bit but I think that it's sort of like important and and and and kind of talk about you know the impact that it's had right because like you said it and I again I love to do you said this.
- 35:14[SPEAKER_01]: that it's almost like a given occurs, right?
- 35:17[SPEAKER_01]: Like, yes, there's this unfortunate thing happening, but simultaneously, this unfortunate thing or this thing that's happening becomes a beautiful thing, right?
- 35:27[SPEAKER_01]: Because that beautiful thing is creating opportunity for those who see it and those who see it.
- 35:33[SPEAKER_01]: And so how are you implementing AI?
- 35:35[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, so for one, I have a whole AI assistant, so it talks just like me, it has all of my knowledge.
- 35:45[SPEAKER_00]: So whenever my teams have questions and I'm not available, they have some of that's available 24-7 to answer their questions.
- 35:54[SPEAKER_00]: With everything regarding the tax industry, tax laws, tax industry, scaling their business.
- 36:00[SPEAKER_00]: And I also teach my team how to create an AI assistant as well and implement that into their business.
- 36:05[SPEAKER_00]: Because if you have to be in your business, then that's not a business.
- 36:10[SPEAKER_00]: It's a job, right?
- 36:10[SPEAKER_00]: Like you're clocking into your own job.
- 36:14[SPEAKER_00]: The trick is to, you know, do less and make more.
- 36:19[SPEAKER_00]: Another way that I'm, you know, utilizing AI is for my clients.
- 36:23[SPEAKER_00]: So my clients don't actually call me.
- 36:29[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I have a name to it yet, but they call AI.
- 36:32[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 36:34[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, everything is just, you know, and on top of that, the automation, right?
- 36:40[SPEAKER_00]: Everything has to be automated.
- 36:42[SPEAKER_00]: Your clients, your team, there has to be a process for them, where you're not there, every step of the process.
- 36:48[SPEAKER_00]: Um, can you imagine, you know, as soon as they're interested, you're having to reach out to them.
- 36:53[SPEAKER_00]: You're having to remember who message you.
- 36:55[SPEAKER_00]: Remember who submitted their documents on top of that, running a team of over 300 tax professionals.
- 37:00[SPEAKER_00]: They have questions and need a process as well.
- 37:02[SPEAKER_00]: It's just impossible.
- 37:03[SPEAKER_00]: That's where you'll be kept.
- 37:05[SPEAKER_00]: So you need to implement automations and I also have a whole business with that as well, where we do that for tax professionals, we set up their automations, they're back in, they're onboarding their clients as well as if they're building a team.
- 37:22[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, AI is a great thing.
- 37:26[SPEAKER_00]: I think that people need to understand what transition means, right?
- 37:30[SPEAKER_00]: Like, just like, when we were younger, our parents didn't know how to use a cell phone.
- 37:34[SPEAKER_00]: Well, you, you need to learn.
- 37:35[SPEAKER_00]: Back, yeah, yeah.
- 37:37[SPEAKER_00]: But for a while, they didn't.
- 37:38[SPEAKER_00]: They still had the house phone.
- 37:39[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
- 37:40[SPEAKER_00]: But I bet you they have one now.
- 37:42[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, little grandma this happened to me.
- 37:44[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they had to figure it out.
- 37:46[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, for sure.
- 37:46[SPEAKER_00]: You have to pivot.
- 37:47[SPEAKER_00]: You have to go with the world.
- 37:51[SPEAKER_00]: Like, you know, there was a time where there wasn't cars around.
- 37:54[SPEAKER_00]: Nice.
- 37:55[SPEAKER_00]: You know, everybody was driving riding horses.
- 37:56[SPEAKER_00]: You're just not going to learn how to ride and drive a car.
- 37:59[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 38:00[SPEAKER_00]: With AI.
- 38:01[SPEAKER_00]: It's unfortunate that people lost their jobs but you have to learn the new way of the world.
- 38:06[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I love that.
- 38:08[SPEAKER_01]: Talk a little bit about how automation, AI, you know, running a successful business has made you a better mom, right?
- 38:20[SPEAKER_01]: Talk about your three boys.
- 38:23[SPEAKER_01]: How is that?
- 38:24[SPEAKER_01]: How has that help you become a better mom?
- 38:26[SPEAKER_00]: First of all, it frees up your time, right?
- 38:29[SPEAKER_00]: Time is one thing that you cannot get back and it's one thing that they say you can't pay, you know, you can't buy time, but essentially you can't, right?
- 38:38[SPEAKER_00]: Like that's the way that you do it.
- 38:40[SPEAKER_00]: You put things in place so that you can, you know, have your time back.
- 38:45[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 38:46[SPEAKER_00]: Being a mom of three boys, it is 11, 9 and 8.
- 38:50[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 38:54[SPEAKER_00]: something that I need to be there for.
- 38:56[SPEAKER_00]: There's moments.
- 38:57[SPEAKER_00]: They need me.
- 38:58[SPEAKER_00]: I need to be I need to be there every step of the way and in the beginning when I didn't know about automations and I was just on my laptop or you're always on your phone.
- 39:13[SPEAKER_00]: They don't get it.
- 39:15[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people think, okay, well, I'm doing this for them.
- 39:17[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, but you're doing this for them, but you're never going to get that time back with them ever again.
- 39:24[SPEAKER_00]: So you're doing this for them.
- 39:25[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to take you what, two, five, ten years.
- 39:28[SPEAKER_00]: Now there are adults.
- 39:29[SPEAKER_00]: They don't care about what you're doing for them.
- 39:32[SPEAKER_00]: Kids don't care if you're struggling.
- 39:34[SPEAKER_00]: They're eating peanut butter and jelly.
- 39:35[SPEAKER_00]: Everything will day.
- 39:36[SPEAKER_00]: They want your time.
- 39:38[SPEAKER_00]: So automations AI has definitely tremendously have made me a better mom.
- 39:44[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I love that.
- 39:47[SPEAKER_01]: Talk a little, if you could, because I know you mentioned earlier that, you know, you know, one of your middle child was diagnosed with a disease.
- 39:56[SPEAKER_01]: Can you talk a little bit about that?
- 40:00[SPEAKER_01]: Like, what is, is he still struggling with it?
- 40:03[SPEAKER_01]: Is it like, what's the status of that?
- 40:05[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 40:06[SPEAKER_00]: Um, so he was diagnosed at two and a half, um, with Duchenne Muscoid of Dissurphy, um, at effects boys, and it's a progressive disease.
- 40:16[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, he, it affects your muscles.
- 40:21[SPEAKER_00]: So, he doesn't have a protein that repairs his muscles.
- 40:26[SPEAKER_00]: So, let's just say, you or I can go to the gym.
- 40:29[SPEAKER_00]: We'd be hurt in the next day, but with water, you know, sleep, healthy foods.
- 40:34[SPEAKER_00]: We recover.
- 40:35[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, eventually, we don't hurt anymore.
- 40:37[SPEAKER_00]: He does not have the protein that repairs his muscles.
- 40:41[SPEAKER_00]: And as you know, your brain is a muscle, your heart is a muscle, your lungs is a muscle.
- 40:47[SPEAKER_00]: So it affects all of those things and it's progressive.
- 40:51[SPEAKER_00]: So right now you may look at him and he's nine and he looks, you know, I don't want to say normal because my baby is very normal to me.
- 41:01[SPEAKER_00]: But he looks just like a happy, you know, regular kid.
- 41:07[SPEAKER_00]: but he does struggle.
- 41:08[SPEAKER_00]: He has a hard time walking upstairs now, you know, he can't run.
- 41:17[SPEAKER_00]: still live in an apartment on the third floor in the hood.
- 41:23[SPEAKER_00]: And I cannot wait to buy my house.
- 41:28[SPEAKER_00]: Still haven't bought my house, but it's in the works.
- 41:31[SPEAKER_00]: But you know, because he can't go upstairs.
- 41:35[SPEAKER_00]: So I have to carry him up three flights of stairs.
- 41:38[SPEAKER_00]: My boy is a big boy because he's on steroids.
- 41:43[SPEAKER_00]: and I carry him and you know he has a wheelchair so if you go to like target or you know walking around I put him in the wheelchair um because like I said he can walk but it's about preserving those muscles and it's that fine line where I want him to have a regular life go have a legal play so I just make sure that I give him frequent breaks
- 42:03[SPEAKER_00]: He's very strong.
- 42:05[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I think that God I always wondered why right like why did you why did he have to go through this?
- 42:14[SPEAKER_00]: But I know now
- 42:18[SPEAKER_00]: He knew that I was the perfect mother to be able to handle such a thing.
- 42:23[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 42:25[SPEAKER_00]: And that's just what it is.
- 42:26[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 42:26[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, no other person would have been able to love him the way he needed to.
- 42:33[SPEAKER_00]: And to be there for him throughout his life.
- 42:38[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 42:39[SPEAKER_00]: So that's how I see it that I've been blessed to be able to mother this child.
- 42:46[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 42:46[SPEAKER_01]: Is there, you know, is there a cure for?
- 42:49[SPEAKER_01]: Is there something that he's just going to have?
- 42:52[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it says, I mean, he said it was a terminal illness, but like, is there, is there research being done?
- 43:00[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 43:00[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 43:01[SPEAKER_00]: So there's research, you know, being done on clinical studies, clinical trials that he hasn't been accepted for yet.
- 43:12[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we went through a period of time where he actually just started steroids because his mental health wasn't well and the steroids create more aggression.
- 43:21[SPEAKER_00]: So you know that is he's doing so well with that right now.
- 43:26[SPEAKER_00]: So we're just starting the steroids and in order to do the clinical trials You need to be on the steroids for at least a year.
- 43:32[SPEAKER_00]: No, and mind you the clinical trials You're not always getting this Medicine where they think is a cure.
- 43:39[SPEAKER_00]: It could be a placebo.
- 43:41[SPEAKER_01]: Sure.
- 43:41[SPEAKER_00]: So you don't know they want to see if it's really working But there's no cure at this moment.
- 43:48[SPEAKER_00]: You know, he
- 43:51[SPEAKER_00]: There's really nothing, you know, I'm massage him every day, um, you know, I love him.
- 43:58[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 43:59[SPEAKER_00]: I love on him.
- 43:59[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 44:00[SPEAKER_01]: What, what, um, are you the only ones, you know, supporting your children?
- 44:05[SPEAKER_01]: Is the Z-app any other like support system?
- 44:07[SPEAKER_01]: Is that what you were?
- 44:09[SPEAKER_00]: Um, no.
- 44:10[SPEAKER_00]: I support them.
- 44:11[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 44:12[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, I do have that.
- 44:13[SPEAKER_00]: That's not around.
- 44:14[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 44:14[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
- 44:15[SPEAKER_00]: No, that is not around.
- 44:16[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 44:17[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and
- 44:20[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's just me and them and so and so you know, you know, and then reason why I'm asking right because as we're talking about, you know, you'd be you being a tax professional you being able to work from anywhere you'd be able to to you know make money again.
- 44:40[SPEAKER_01]: this level of freedom, right, this level of freedom financially kind of opens the door for you to be able to, you know, be there for your child, massage him on a daily basis, those things.
- 44:54[SPEAKER_01]: What would you, you know, is there any other,
- 44:59[SPEAKER_01]: message if you will for, you know, those who are on the fence who are looking to start a business or looking to, you know, start in the tax industry is anything that, you know, you want to tell them or leave them.
- 45:18[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's important to not focus on what you've been through and
- 45:28[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes there's nobody coming to save you, and you shouldn't want that anyway, it's within you.
- 45:35[SPEAKER_00]: And sometimes that comes with loving yourself and realizing that you do deserve more.
- 45:43[SPEAKER_00]: And I feel like when you reach that point where enough is enough, you know, only you can decide that for yourself, you know, I think that everybody is more than capable to be able to change whatever circumstance they're going through.
- 45:57[SPEAKER_00]: And your future doesn't have to look like what you've been through you can become unrecognizable one day You could shock yourself every time you look in the mirror and be like wow.
- 46:08[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like God is so good like look what he has done for me in my life
- 46:13[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, just, you have to not play victim in your own story and be your own superhero.
- 46:21[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, truly just figure it out.
- 46:24[SPEAKER_00]: Like, sometimes you just have to figure it out and realize, like, all right, you know what?
- 46:30[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to, my mind is set on this one thing and there is no plan B.
- 46:34[SPEAKER_00]: This is the only plan and I'm not going to stop until I am successful in it.
- 46:42[SPEAKER_01]: 18-year-old Cheyenne, she's looking, she's here, she's looking at you right now.
- 46:51[SPEAKER_01]: Is he proud?
- 46:52[SPEAKER_00]: Very.
- 46:53[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 46:54[SPEAKER_01]: Anything that today Cheyenne would tell 18-year-old Cheyenne to do differently?
- 47:14[SPEAKER_00]: to find love within yourself and others.
- 47:18[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
- 47:19[SPEAKER_00]: Because I was searching for it and other people and relationships, not realizing that, you know, I didn't even know who I was.
- 47:30[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 47:31[SPEAKER_00]: So just yeah, I would tell 18-year-old Cheyenne to not rush life and it's okay to,
- 47:42[SPEAKER_00]: to make mistakes.
- 47:44[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 47:44[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 47:46[SPEAKER_01]: I love that.
- 47:46[SPEAKER_01]: I love that.
