- 0:00Foreign welcome
- 0:06to Natty Unfiltered Podcast. I'm Nettie
- 0:10Realtor, digital hustler, mom of three and proof
- 0:14that you can rewrite your story at any age.
- 0:18On this podcast I want to talk about side
- 0:23hustles, self worth and stepping out of your survival
- 0:27mode because you were not meant to lose yourself in motherhood.
- 0:32If you ever felt that there's more waiting
- 0:37for you but you didn't know where to start, you're in
- 0:41the right place. So welcome and let's get started.
- 0:46I want to take you back to why I finally decided
- 0:51to went to go all in and
- 0:56just start putting myself first. My family was
- 1:01always important to me and still very important to me.
- 1:04But as kids started to get older, I was craving to
- 1:08create something that was meaningful
- 1:14for me, something that I wanted to be financially independent.
- 1:18I wanted to feel that not
- 1:23the self worth but something inside me just wanted
- 1:27to succeed beyond being
- 1:31a mom, a wife. And I dabbled into
- 1:35different businesses while the kids
- 1:39were growing up. And I think that failure,
- 1:43the fear of failure, that was what prevented
- 1:47me from going all in on different businesses that I wanted
- 1:51to start. Then years
- 1:55later when I started working on myself and working with the life coach,
- 1:59I started to change my subconscious mind and
- 2:03I realized that fear just prevented me from so many things
- 2:07in life and I no longer wanted that
- 2:11to be
- 2:15a hold that dark cloud over my head.
- 2:20And so little by little I just started to learn about social
- 2:23media, I started to exploring more things that
- 2:27I can double into and I started to see other moms that
- 2:32were either were 9 to 5 or working
- 2:36at the hospitals, different careers,
- 2:40more out of their life than just like everyday
- 2:45struggles of motherhood work, just balancing everything
- 2:50together. Now I wanted to do
- 2:54podcasts years ago and because I thought that we're going to be a good fit
- 2:59and we can just talk about motherhood careers.
- 3:04But that never came into fruition.
- 3:07Now years later I still wanted to
- 3:11do podcast and I wanted to be open and
- 3:17I wanted to just talk about all things moms
- 3:22and how we go through life and sometimes we lose ourselves and we
- 3:26try to find ourselves and sometimes either you are a stay at home
- 3:30mom or you go to work. We at
- 3:35times tend to still put ourselves kind of
- 3:40like on the back burner and
- 3:44at some point I think that we
- 3:48need to look at ourselves and say okay, what makes us happy and what
- 3:53steps do you want to take to maybe
- 3:58go after that dream, maybe start that business,
- 4:01start that podcast, get on social media,
- 4:05just whatever it is. I know sometimes it Takes
- 4:09some time and some planning, but it is doable
- 4:14now.
- 4:18I've tried many things in my
- 4:23life. I tried to go and have a store online and then
- 4:27go to be a health coach and
- 4:33at some point do drop shipping. And then I started
- 4:37to do digital affiliate marketing. Being an influencer
- 4:41and all of that experiences that some
- 4:45did not work out still led me to today.
- 4:49It still built a self worth, a self confidence that
- 4:54I'm also trying to instill into my kids. I show them that
- 4:58anything is possible and you should not be afraid of going after
- 5:02your dreams and goals. Don't let anybody stop you.
- 5:06Don't let yourself stop you from
- 5:10achieving what your heart desires.
- 5:14Even things that might look scary difficult,
- 5:19you can still achieve them. Is the
- 5:23biggest thing is that I've also learned is you always will have people
- 5:27that will try to second guess you who will
- 5:31have doubts and they will feel make
- 5:35you feel that you maybe not capable or
- 5:38it's too difficult to get into something. One thing
- 5:43you have to remember is that you need
- 5:47to get rid of that noise and surround yourself with people
- 5:51that believe in you now. Yes, you have to hear the
- 5:56ups and downs and the obstacles that you
- 5:59can hit along the way.
- 6:04That doesn't mean that that has to prevent you from going
- 6:09after your goals is just
- 6:13be cautious and listen to the advice. Just still
- 6:17pursue what your little heart desires.
- 6:23You might need to pivot along the way, which is fine.
- 6:28That doesn't mean that you absolutely have to press
- 6:33on the brakes and come to a complete stop.
- 6:39So in this podcast I would love to just
- 6:44talk about the struggles,
- 6:49the ups and downs, the positive side
- 6:54of being a mom, running a business,
- 6:58reaching those milestones and those goals.
- 7:02And I've met so many obviously moms along the way.
- 7:06And sometimes when I talk about what I would love to do,
- 7:10they talk about the same thing. It's a realization that at
- 7:14some point you just stop worrying about what other people think. You stop
- 7:18worrying about the haters,
- 7:23the negativity. And you just surround yourself with positive
- 7:27people. You have a positive mindset, you manifest
- 7:32things, you make
- 7:37shit happen and you seek help.
- 7:40And if you cannot get that help, then rely on yourself or
- 7:46seek help from those that will lead you.
- 7:49A hand will listen to you when things don't always
- 7:55go right or smooth. Even if that one,
- 7:58one person that can be by your side and
- 8:02be your cheerleader. It could be your kids, it can be your husband,
- 8:06it could be your best friend and sometimes it could be somebody that
- 8:10you just talk here and there and they're your biggest cheerleader.
- 8:16So I just wanted to say thank you for listening
- 8:21to this podcast. I'm so excited that I found finally decided to
- 8:26go ahead and pull the plug and believe in myself
- 8:30and just go after my dreams and
- 8:34this is one of them. So I would love for you to leave a comment,
- 8:38preferably a 5 star review.

- 8:45the future episodes that will be amazing. So I
