3:52
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I made my first six-fig is digital in 2018.
3:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Fast forward, I want to say, I've generated
4:00
[SPEAKER_01]: over $10 million in digital money, but that was through high ticket, right?
4:06
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was doing challenges, that was doing webinars, and then I was selling mentorships, you know, my mentorship at the time was like $40,000, and so we were, you know, so it was, you know, we had a partnership, and so we did really, really well in that model.
4:22
[SPEAKER_01]: I got burnt out, you know, and so I decided, you know what, I don't want to do challenges anymore, I don't want to do webinars, and so I started to only do high ticket, right?
4:34
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I would go and I would just, you know, find people who are my ideal clientele and then I would sell to them directly.
4:42
[SPEAKER_01]: And so, you know, I've been able to still create a seven figure business by just doing the
4:50
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a lot of work.
4:51
[SPEAKER_01]: It is a lot of work.
4:52

[SPEAKER_01]: And so when I met you, you know, met you at a mastermind and I started hearing all of the great things that you was doing that you've been doing all the all the things, you know, the ability to start in the green and like that sounds awesome to really good to be able to wake up.
5:11
[SPEAKER_01]: every month.
5:13
[SPEAKER_01]: And no, I got six figures.
5:15
[SPEAKER_01]: That's it.
5:15
[SPEAKER_01]: And then everything after that is a bone on it, opposed to what my motto is right now and again in full transparency is I start at zero every month, right?
5:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I have to go, I have to go fish.
5:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I have to go get my
5:35
[SPEAKER_01]: on a phone with a cell scene what we don't have a post to have in that recurrent revenue show I'm I'm really excited about having this conversation with you because I need all the game or thoughts or how I can build communities because you haven't just done it once you've done it multiple times but before we start for those who don't know who is Dr. Cassandra Smith

[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, so yes, my name is I think it's not just me that I am a digital product strategies where I teach small business owners how to take They skill and turn into multiple streams of revenue but through AI and community.
6:08
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, so I started.
6:09
[SPEAKER_04]: I want to stay back in 2017.
6:10
[SPEAKER_04]: I started making T-shirts
6:12
[SPEAKER_04]: Just selling C-shirts as a hobby in 2019, I was able to quit my job and still T-shirts full of time until I realized people don't buy T-shirts all day every day.
6:22
[SPEAKER_04]: By this time, I don't have a job anymore.
6:24
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm like, what am I gonna do?
6:25
[SPEAKER_04]: So I ended up getting me big debt.
6:27
[SPEAKER_04]: Me and my slime moving to a hotel and efficiency and we was in that for about five months.
6:31
[SPEAKER_04]: And in that hotel, and I tell people this, I love to be transparent too.
6:36
[SPEAKER_04]: I could have took my own life.
6:38
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, that's how depressed I was.
6:41
[SPEAKER_04]: I had all of my stuff in storage where I was wanted to storage on it to pet these t-shirts and in the storage unit one day, I seen a whole family stand there.
6:49
[SPEAKER_04]: Like a baby, a man, and a woman.
6:51
[SPEAKER_04]: And in my head, I'm thinking, like, I'm sitting here complaining because I'm in a hotel, but they don't even have nowhere to stay.
6:57
[SPEAKER_04]: So I go back to the hotel and I'm just like, you know what?
7:00
[SPEAKER_04]: Again, at this age, I'm 36.
7:02
[SPEAKER_04]: This was literally 2019.
7:04
[SPEAKER_04]: Not there for a long ago, okay?
7:06
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm sitting in the hotel.
7:07
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm telling myself, like, I'm done because at this point, I don't been up down.
7:11
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, at this age, you both have
7:13
[SPEAKER_04]: your lights together, you thought to be you married with a house on a hill with a little dog and a picket fence and I'm in a hotel with a field time like why can't get myself together?
7:22
[SPEAKER_04]: So I told my son I was like, son, you want to go stay with grandma?
7:25
[SPEAKER_04]: All the who's your son.
7:26
[SPEAKER_04]: He was at the time 17.
7:27
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
7:28
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm like, do you want to go stay with grandma because in my head I'm like,
7:32
[SPEAKER_04]: I was going through just a real deep depression, you know, because everybody's talking about me like a sandwich can never get himself together.
7:37
[SPEAKER_04]: And people feel like people make you feel like, where does all mean that thing yes they do?
7:41
[SPEAKER_04]: Especially if it's coming from family, friends.
7:44
[SPEAKER_04]: And you know, it's really true.
7:46
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm telling my son like, hey,
7:48
[SPEAKER_04]: I ain't telling them, but I'll tell myself, like, I'm done.
7:51
[SPEAKER_04]: But I'm like, let me get him out of here.
7:53
[SPEAKER_04]: So I don't want him to find me like this.
7:54
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm like, hey, son, you want to go stay with Grama for the weekend.
7:57
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, have fun.
7:59
[SPEAKER_04]: And it's like, I son, new.
8:01
[SPEAKER_04]: He knew, like, I'm not going to leave you.
8:02
[SPEAKER_04]: He would, like, know, I'm going to stay right here.
8:05
[SPEAKER_04]: And at the time, we had, like, a two, a hotel with two beds.
8:08
[SPEAKER_04]: He just sat back on the bed and finished playing his game.
8:10
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, he didn't even hear me.
8:11
[SPEAKER_04]: So he was like, I feel like he knew, like, if I leave my mama right now, we already don't have nobody else to depend on.
8:16
[SPEAKER_04]: What is going to happen if I come back and my mom's not here?
8:19
[SPEAKER_04]: So I felt like he just can't be known, you know what I'm saying?
8:23
[SPEAKER_04]: So when I seen that he was not going to leave me, I'm like, okay, boom.
8:26
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to turn on my camera and instead of trying to turn on my camera and sell T-shirts, I'm going to start teaching T-shirts.
8:32
[SPEAKER_04]: And when I started teaching people how to make T-shirts, like it blew up from there.
8:36
[SPEAKER_04]: And this was going to happen.
8:37
[SPEAKER_04]: Kobe like really hitting down.
8:39
[SPEAKER_04]: So everybody was getting fired from the jobs and they wanted the second stream to income from home and they wanted to know what can I do to make money.
8:46
[SPEAKER_04]: And here I am, just the girl going live from the hotel.
8:48
[SPEAKER_04]: Not even trying to hide it.
8:49
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah.
8:50
[SPEAKER_04]: Going live.
8:51
[SPEAKER_04]: This is how y'all made T-shirt.
8:52
[SPEAKER_04]: This is everything you need in the business literally took out.
8:55
[SPEAKER_04]: Wow.
8:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow, wow.
8:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And so now you're in the hotel, business thinks of like, where you're selling, you know, you're going live, like what was the product?
9:04
[SPEAKER_01]: You started selling like a course or like.
9:06
[SPEAKER_04]: So as far as I was just teaching for free because I really believe in if you give a value first.
9:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
9:10
[SPEAKER_04]: The money's going to come and so by me showing up just teaching for free, they started asking me, well, thank you for teaching us T-shirts.
9:17
[SPEAKER_04]: Can you show me how to set up a website now because I'm making money up a T-shirt.
9:20
[SPEAKER_04]: So that was making money off the free information.
9:23
[SPEAKER_04]: Now can you show me how to set up LLC?
9:25
[SPEAKER_04]: Now can you show me how to do this?
9:27
[SPEAKER_04]: And in my head, I'm like, I'm not going to teach all this for free.
9:30
[SPEAKER_04]: So who all have gotten value from what I saw for free here by life?
9:34
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, what if I started to pay a community where I'm going to charge you guys a certain amount of money, who would join?
9:40
[SPEAKER_04]: Waking Liz went crazy like now they wouldn't have paid me so I'm my way.
9:44
[SPEAKER_04]: I got to create a pay community now and that's when it took a while.
9:48
[SPEAKER_01]: And so now you create this pay community.
9:51
[SPEAKER_01]: at what point were you able to now get out of the hotel and like start to get your, you know, you're, you're like, a month after starting to pay a community a month.
10:01
[SPEAKER_04]: Yes, like literally, I was teaching for free that whole time.
10:04
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
10:04
[SPEAKER_04]: But as soon as I made the offer and my college environment going always tell me this.
10:08
[SPEAKER_04]: make me all right.
10:10
[SPEAKER_04]: I was so quick to just I don't want to charge this should be free that can go to you too Like that's the mindset you have yeah, that's what I was like wait Let me just make the offerings to who gonna take it.
10:19
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, yeah, made the offer the next month.
10:21
[SPEAKER_01]: I was in my own house Wow, wow, yeah, what was that what was that?
10:26
[SPEAKER_01]: That feeling like right because I like to I like to think about Like mindset or talk about mindset a lot because
10:34
[SPEAKER_01]: You go from, you know, a space where you just don't want to even be here anymore.
10:41
[SPEAKER_01]: To now, I mean, you know, a lot of times when people hit that space is really hard to like bounce back.
10:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
10:49
[SPEAKER_01]: But you go from that space of not one to be here.
10:52
[SPEAKER_01]: You switch to a mindset that says, you know what, let me just start teaching and going live.
10:58
[SPEAKER_01]: And then you switch to a mindset of, right, now I make a money, you know, you know, now it's time to, you know, get my stuff together.
11:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, walk me through like that transition, like, like, like, you know, what was the,
11:12
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, at what point did it click that says, you know what, I'm going from, I want to be here to, all right, let me get this thing another shot to, all right, now we up, let's keep, let's keep this thing moving.
11:23
[SPEAKER_04]: That is a great question as so for I didn't tell the whole story.
11:26
[SPEAKER_04]: So in 2017, the reason why I got into T-shirts is because again, I was going through something depressed like, oh, oh, the phrase.
11:34
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, and at this time, me and my two kids, because I had two kids at the time, we would stay on my sister and the two bare own.
11:40
[SPEAKER_04]: She had about her.
11:41
[SPEAKER_04]: She had three-up on kids, and we just, you know, in their power duct.
11:45
[SPEAKER_04]: So I put my son in a basketball recreational, just to get his mind off the stuff, because I'm going through it.
11:51
[SPEAKER_04]: They're going through it, because we're going through it.
11:52
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm like, you want to play basketball here like, yeah, put him in basketball.
11:55
[SPEAKER_04]: The coach tells us, hey, we're going to be wearing these custom hoodie y'all to these away games, and we need everybody dressed in the same hoodie, so we could all be
12:03
[SPEAKER_04]: I couldn't afford to piss in all of this, so I'm like, wait, open the pay for a hoodie.
12:07
[SPEAKER_04]: So my brother was like, I know this craft, but I didn't even know it was a such thing as a crapper.
12:11
[SPEAKER_04]: She made custom hidden, she would give you a good deal.
12:14
[SPEAKER_04]: She made a custom hoodie.
12:15
[SPEAKER_04]: We were at a hoodie to the away game, and the coach was like, my fat, we want those of these.
12:20
[SPEAKER_04]: Can't you make it for the whole team?
12:22
[SPEAKER_04]: So I reached back out to the craft, and I'm like, hey, I got a, you know, a little money play.
12:27
[SPEAKER_04]: Can you show me how to make it?
12:28
[SPEAKER_04]: And she said, no.
12:29
[SPEAKER_04]: She said, you gotta go to YouTube, just like I did.
12:31
[SPEAKER_04]: You can kind of me and make them, but I'm not going to show you how to make it.
12:35
[SPEAKER_04]: And that was a mindset shift for me that when I do learn how to do it, that's going to be my wife.
12:40
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to make sure no other women of the creative anybody that want to learn never hears the word, no.
12:46
[SPEAKER_04]: If I can master this being, I'm going to start teaching it.
12:49
[SPEAKER_04]: So when I was in that hotel fast forward,
12:52
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'm thinking like, man, I don't want to be here.
12:54
[SPEAKER_04]: I had to remember my while I like girl, you took a note and turned into a guess.
12:58
[SPEAKER_04]: You can't give up now.
12:59
[SPEAKER_04]: Then my other while with my kids, they didn't ask to be here.
13:02
[SPEAKER_04]: If my son's saying me struggling, what is going to look like if he see me winning?
13:06
[SPEAKER_04]: So I needed to be that example to him.
13:07
[SPEAKER_04]: And then my next while was my mom already struggled with seven kids by her step as a single parent.
13:13
[SPEAKER_04]: Our goal was, well, all the seven kids was, if one of us make it, we got to retire her.
13:19
[SPEAKER_04]: She's been working two to three jobs all her life.
13:21
[SPEAKER_04]: At that time, she was still working in the warehouse.
13:23
[SPEAKER_04]: So in my head, I'm like, I got to do it.
13:25
[SPEAKER_04]: Nobody, everybody else working on the files.
13:28
[SPEAKER_04]: Nobody is trying to really do this entrepreneur journey like me.
13:31
[SPEAKER_04]: So those are my three wives, like I got to do it.
13:34
[SPEAKER_01]: And so now you have this strong why you build this this community up at what point do like and and I want to hear numbers like like what at what point did you get to like five figures a month or six figures a month like we're like like at what point now you like I'm up like this is this is the one
13:55
[SPEAKER_04]: So I literally, in 2020, and this is real numbers.
13:58
[SPEAKER_04]: I have real numbers.
13:59
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_04]: 2024 last year was my biggest year, we did 5.5 million.
16:07
[SPEAKER_04]: So every year I'm thinking it's the COVID business like maybe people just doing this for COVID But this business is gonna change you to grow even after COVID So that's what I knew.
16:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so are you are you the first million in your family?
16:20
[SPEAKER_04]: Am I a generation my whole bloodline?
16:23
[SPEAKER_04]: But I won't be the last if they listen to what I'm doing, but definitely.
16:27
[SPEAKER_01]: And so, it's so, wait, wait.
16:29
[SPEAKER_01]: So, there's a lot, there's a lot, there's a lot, there's a lot, there's a lot, there's a lot, I hope you'll pay attention.
16:34
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot that impact, there's a lot that impact, and I want to keep going to the, um, I want to go to the mindset shift though, right?
16:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I mean, I'm, you know, I'm, I'll be honest, I'm a, I'm the youngest of three.
16:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm from a, you know, a group in the projects.
16:54
[SPEAKER_01]: First, more time million than my family.
16:56
[SPEAKER_01]: But when I made my first million, I did not know what to do.
17:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And so like I wrecked it horribly, right?
17:05
[SPEAKER_01]: As you start now, right, you go from $15.
17:15
[SPEAKER_01]: in a, like, that's life changing money.
17:18
[SPEAKER_01]: It was.
17:18
[SPEAKER_01]: That's more money than three people make like that in the so bad effect.
17:23
[SPEAKER_01]: The average average family of four in America makes $40,000 a year.
17:29
[SPEAKER_01]: The average.
17:30
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the fact.
17:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
17:32
[SPEAKER_01]: And this is based on the U.S. Department of Labor Statistics says the average family of four.
17:40
[SPEAKER_01]: makes an average of $40,000 a year.
17:43
[SPEAKER_01]: In a couple of months, you may double that from $15.
17:48
[SPEAKER_01]: How did your money, like, how did your money management skills change?
17:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you mess up money like what like how how did coming into a lot of money all that size affect you a change?
18:04
[SPEAKER_04]: That's a good question, Ash.
18:05
[SPEAKER_04]: I always tell people however you are without money is if you are to sign with money that means basically money don't change you money just amplify who you already were.
18:16
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
18:17
[SPEAKER_04]: So because I came from the project to came from a single parent home I
18:23
[SPEAKER_04]: How can I keep this?
18:24
[SPEAKER_04]: So I wasn't the tight to splurge on this to everything.
18:27
[SPEAKER_04]: The being honest, the first thing that I did was I paid off my credit because I was skipping apartments, leaving apartments.
18:33
[SPEAKER_04]: I had a lot of apartments on my credit so I cleared my credit out.
18:35
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, they didn't try to make no payment plans.
18:37
[SPEAKER_04]: What I owe here you go.
18:39
[SPEAKER_04]: Second thing I did was tell my mom what to walk in and tell them she done.
18:42
[SPEAKER_04]: Let's go.
18:42
[SPEAKER_04]: That was in 2020.
18:43
[SPEAKER_04]: She even met a work sense.
18:44
[SPEAKER_02]: That's cool.
18:45
[SPEAKER_04]: The third thing I did because we come from a background.
18:48
[SPEAKER_04]: Like I said, I'm the first millionaire.
18:50
[SPEAKER_04]: I wanted to do something for my family that.
18:52
[SPEAKER_04]: even if I made more millions out of the days they can never fake a sandwich and never did nothing for me.
18:56
[SPEAKER_04]: So I bought all of this to them cars, like literally, what car are you, what car you want?
19:00
[SPEAKER_01]: So I took care of you, you're the, you're the middle.
19:03
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm the third oldest.
19:04
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, so everybody got a car on.
19:07
[SPEAKER_04]: You get a car.
19:08
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, it was like over, it was like over.
19:10
[SPEAKER_04]: Cause I'm like,
19:11
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't know how long it's gonna last, but I want to make sure they straight if it's not to do that because I'm in my head I'm thinking this called it money too, but the more it started to grow they will convince a ministry like so what we get in this year net that I already you know do what I'm supposed to do so now
19:27
[SPEAKER_04]: But yeah, then I wasn't managing my money crazy because I just know what it felt like to not have it And I didn't want to go back to that point of and I even do that now folks be like hey Why you going so hard and every day you pushing your business because I know what it feels like to be homeless And I know if I get comfort at any time I can literally be back in that hotel in no time and I think that's what a lot of people mess up But they first see it's biggest person figures.
19:51
[SPEAKER_04]: It's like I'm rich and then you sit back
19:53
[SPEAKER_04]: No, the same way you made it, you can easily lose it.
19:55
[SPEAKER_04]: So that's that's how I move period.
19:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
19:58
[SPEAKER_01]: How did it did it change.
20:02
[SPEAKER_01]: The people around you.
20:03
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I lost a lot of friends because they felt like oh.
20:08
[SPEAKER_04]: First they felt like every time it came around me, they had to compare what I had with they had.
20:12
[SPEAKER_04]: So if I'd be like, hey, let's go out of town, well, I'm not rich like you.
20:16
[SPEAKER_04]: And it's like, wait, what is this coming from?
20:19
[SPEAKER_04]: If I'm asking to go out of town, obviously, I'm gonna put some money on it, but it's like, oh, I don't have it like you, or it's just, I just feel like it was more like a competition.
20:28
[SPEAKER_04]: But that wasn't, because I'm not trying to tell people, you're gonna be the next millionaire.
20:32
[SPEAKER_04]: If you don't put it in the work you can.
20:34
[SPEAKER_04]: So by me, Elevating,
20:36
[SPEAKER_04]: I did have a lot of friends that fall off, not just because of what I had, but because they didn't want to put in the work it's me.
20:42
[SPEAKER_04]: So they felt like, I said this the other day, like, I was a reflection of what they wasn't, like the work that I put in, it showed them what they wasn't doing.
20:51
[SPEAKER_04]: So it was like, Danny, I can't be around her because she's going hard.
20:55
[SPEAKER_04]: She's always studying and she's always joining mentors.
20:57
[SPEAKER_04]: She always isn't visiting her knowledge.
20:59
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm over here going to the club, every week, drinking smoking.
21:02
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, doing stuff that the opposite of her.
21:04
[SPEAKER_04]: So then being around me reminded them of what they was not doing.
21:08
[SPEAKER_04]: So they just thought of falling out by that stuff.
21:10
[SPEAKER_04]: I didn't even have to say anything.
21:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
21:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
21:12
[SPEAKER_01]: And so now.
21:13
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, AI like at what point did you start because I believe and I've said I sort of somewhere they said AI is going to create more millionaires in the next five years than the whole dot com internet space.
21:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I believe it at what point did you get the AI plug and realize that adding AI automation was the way to
21:37
[SPEAKER_01]: continue to stack.
21:38
[SPEAKER_04]: It was about 23.
21:40
[SPEAKER_04]: So at this point, I got a couple of communities where, um, so my community is almost small ticket girl.
21:46
[SPEAKER_04]: I mean, I have a high ticket course now.
21:48
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
21:48
[SPEAKER_04]: But then I only had small ticket communities.
21:50
[SPEAKER_04]: So they was paying me like $1.99 a month, $1.59 a month.
21:53
[SPEAKER_04]: But it was a large quantity of people.
21:55
[SPEAKER_04]: So I got between $1.100 to $2,000 people every month,
22:00
[SPEAKER_04]: I thought, wow, about three months, people started to churn, and I was like, wait, why they dropping off?
22:05
[SPEAKER_04]: Why they not stand?
22:06
[SPEAKER_04]: So I started running challenges like you said you run.
22:09
[SPEAKER_04]: So it wasn't for me to run those challenges.
22:11
[SPEAKER_04]: I was using AI to create all of my ads, all of my email marketing, all of my content.
22:17
[SPEAKER_04]: And within minutes, like I didn't have to sit there and try to think about what I'm going to write about, what is going to be my copyright?
22:22
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, AI, if I gave it the idea, it sped out the risk.
22:25
[SPEAKER_04]: So then when I started doing a challenge, it was my first year,
22:29
[SPEAKER_04]: I didn't know how to stretch out the challenge.
22:31
[SPEAKER_04]: What should the challenge be about?
22:32
[SPEAKER_04]: It gave me my whole layout, my whole entire PowerPoint that when I did the challenge, did the PowerPoint walk through it, we was going to 20, 300, 600 K per challenge.
22:42
[SPEAKER_04]: As they knew, never done a challenge.
22:45
[SPEAKER_04]: Never knew about challenges, but I'm trying to figure out how can I get more people in some of my pay communities when other people drop off?
22:51
[SPEAKER_04]: So from those challenges, I was able to keep bringing people in every three months, but I was also making an additional 300, 600 K.
22:58
[SPEAKER_04]: But A.I.
22:59
[SPEAKER_04]: was giving me everything like I didn't and then be honest.
23:03
[SPEAKER_04]: I fired a lot of my marketing team because A.I I don't need to ask first.
23:07
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't need email parts.
23:08
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't need to copyright it.
23:09
[SPEAKER_04]: I don't need to enter.
23:09
[SPEAKER_04]: Like what A.I.
23:11
[SPEAKER_02]: does everything
23:14
[SPEAKER_04]: Can you imagine how many people don't know about that?
23:16
[SPEAKER_04]: They don't, yeah, yeah.
23:17
[SPEAKER_04]: And they don't even want to know.
23:18
[SPEAKER_04]: Right.
23:18
[SPEAKER_04]: So that's why I teach my students.
23:20
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to show you how to do dumb for you services, because if they don't want to learn AI, you need to be offering that service to say, OK, I got a package for you.
23:26
[SPEAKER_04]: But I can create your content.
23:28
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
23:28
[SPEAKER_04]: I can create your email.
23:29
[SPEAKER_04]: I can create.
23:30
[SPEAKER_04]: So that's where I'm at right now.
23:33
[SPEAKER_01]: So now for the selfish part of the show.
23:37
[SPEAKER_01]: So as I told you earlier, like I do how to take it, I've built communities before, but I think I've always had a couple of hundreds.
23:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I've never built thousands of people into a community, what's the sauce, right?
23:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Like somebody's trying to start from scratch, they have an idea or what I did should I be doing,
24:07
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I'm on your couch, I
24:33
[SPEAKER_04]: I compare it to the Chinese restaurant in the mall.
24:36
[SPEAKER_04]: They always got a little soupy because they know if you get a taste.
24:40
[SPEAKER_04]: By the time you don't, you're going to want the full plate.
24:43
[SPEAKER_04]: So I teach them like, hey, create the digital product first.
24:46
[SPEAKER_04]: Let people know, hey, I got a free before you.
24:48
[SPEAKER_04]: Once they opt in, so it could be a funnel, it can be a website.
24:51
[SPEAKER_04]: But once they opt in, then you're going to upset them.
24:55
[SPEAKER_04]: So the next thing that they need that has something to do with that digital product.
24:58
[SPEAKER_04]: So say for instance, you're doing a how to lose weight and 10 days free booklet.
25:04
[SPEAKER_04]: So they come in and get the free booklet, but you upsell them to the meal per plan, the workout plan.
25:12
[SPEAKER_04]: You're going to want all this together.
25:13
[SPEAKER_04]: So it's something that's needed right now, right?
25:15
[SPEAKER_04]: So then when they get that, once they get to the thank you page, a lot of folks just be like, here's your digital products.
25:21
[SPEAKER_04]: Thank you.
25:22
[SPEAKER_04]: You need to be telling them to join your weight loss community.
25:24
[SPEAKER_04]: The free one.
25:25
[SPEAKER_04]: A lot of folks just go straight into, oh, I'm not doing a community list.
25:28
[SPEAKER_04]: They pan.
25:29
[SPEAKER_04]: You got to build a free community first.
25:31
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a whole method.
25:32
[SPEAKER_04]: But okay, now they're in a free community.
25:34
[SPEAKER_04]: So they go on the free community to introduce themselves, hey, I just bought this product, that product, but then you're going to drop your next product that might be another freebie or it might even be free no more, it might just be a pay one.
25:46
[SPEAKER_04]: Now, other people are coming to the community that they bought product A, but the people that bought product B is like, wait, where you get that product one.
25:53
[SPEAKER_04]: So now they end their bragging about the different products they bought and it's making
26:01
[SPEAKER_04]: And I just love, I love a free community because it teaches me what do I need to drop next.
26:06
[SPEAKER_04]: A lot of the times we want to sell what we want to sell.
26:09
[SPEAKER_04]: But in that selling, we got to sell what the people say they need.
26:12
[SPEAKER_04]: So in that community, I do daily engagement polls.
26:14
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey, what are y'all's written with today?
26:16
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey, what are y'all need help with today?
26:18
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey, why have you got to this one of your business?
26:20
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh my gosh, I need to LLC.
26:22
[SPEAKER_04]: I need to shopify.
26:23
[SPEAKER_04]: I need help with marketing.
26:24
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
26:25
[SPEAKER_04]: Now, I'm going to create a paid community.
26:27
[SPEAKER_04]: Everybody has already bought a product.
26:28
[SPEAKER_04]: Remember, once they buy a product and see it's a value, they already know you like the interest you.
26:33
[SPEAKER_04]: So when I pitched that I have this program now, that's going to have everything y'all say, I mean, it is a no-brainer for y'all to a sense of the net's offer.
26:41
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'm really big on creating that essential ladder.
26:44
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
26:44
[SPEAKER_04]: This is where you add the best I would say you need help with.
26:47
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to create this community.
26:49
[SPEAKER_04]: So now, I got everybody joining this new pay community.
26:53
[SPEAKER_04]: In that pay community I get them homework every two weeks.
26:56
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey guys, here's your homework around your LLC.
26:58
[SPEAKER_04]: Here's your homework around Whatever they said they need to help it, but don't post your homework here.
27:03
[SPEAKER_04]: Guess what they gonna post their homework at in a free community.
27:07
[SPEAKER_04]: Now Those people are now like oh my gosh, I want to learn that when is it open again, but my program has an open and shit
27:17
[SPEAKER_04]: So now there's a wait list for you to even get inside my program.
27:21
[SPEAKER_04]: So when I do lunch it during my next challenge, I don't even run a lot of ads on loopy because I have a full wait and list waiting to get inside of this community.
27:29
[SPEAKER_04]: So now they're in the second the first pay community because I got a free and I got a first pay community.
27:35
[SPEAKER_04]: Now I'm in that pay community and I hired
27:38
[SPEAKER_04]: And I call them admin, so other coaches, but the way I was able to get those coaches, because not I don't even go live in the peg room.
27:45
[SPEAKER_04]: I got them in there, but they don't even see me because that's at a, you know, lower tick a little bit.
27:49
[SPEAKER_04]: They're like, why picking out a man?
27:50
[SPEAKER_04]: But I was able to bring people up in some of my community to be my coaches, but the way I found them was,
27:56
[SPEAKER_04]: on school and Facebook, they let you know who your top leaders are, meaning the top people that's engaging, the top people that's coming, the top people that's always having people.
28:06
[SPEAKER_04]: And if you just reach out to them and say, hey, would you like to be a coach?
28:08
[SPEAKER_04]: They are doing for free just because they already love the community.
28:11
[SPEAKER_04]: And of course, you can get on some type of vet.
28:14
[SPEAKER_04]: value for value or you can pay them.
28:16
[SPEAKER_04]: So now I got five coaches inside of the first community they go like every week where I don't have to show up.
28:21
[SPEAKER_02]: Wow.
28:21
[SPEAKER_04]: But I got my coaches now they create these polls every day.
28:26
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey, what do you want me to help with now?
28:28
[SPEAKER_04]: What else do you have in probably when I gave y'all?
28:30
[SPEAKER_04]: Can I see when I gave y'all?
28:31
[SPEAKER_04]: You know LLC, what's what you need help with now?
28:34
[SPEAKER_04]: I want to learn how to stay on digital products next pay community and remember it's so easy to get people that has already shot with you So back from you again versus I always trying to get new people So now I'm gonna give y'all an offer that you got to say today, so we got to use a foam roll Everybody's in this first pay community if you want to upgrade instead of you giving me 500 dollars You want to gonna give me 300, but you got to take the offer now and that's just for your first one because it's still a month The community but they're joining.
29:01
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a no brain.
29:02
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh my god
29:03
[SPEAKER_04]: for the discount.
29:04
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, let me tell you, this count don't really be discounted.
29:09
[SPEAKER_04]: I literally say for instance, I want $300.
29:12
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to price it at five and get them a discount because they just, they just want to fill out it get the deal.
29:18
[SPEAKER_04]: So instead of me saying, give me $300, I'm glad that's a lot.
29:21
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, the price is really five, but here's a half of this count.
29:24
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh thank you, it's no weird for me like if I wanted to just say three ooh, that's too much But I said if I haven't got your discount now you run it over there So and that's just been my mother the whole time so now I have three pay community's what they pay me every single month I just created my first high ticket all for what I see people how to run it to that plate
29:47
[SPEAKER_04]: Whoo, that's the game.
29:49
[SPEAKER_04]: And so what platform are you using to build?
29:52
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm using both.
29:53
[SPEAKER_04]: So I started out with Facebook group and I just love Facebook because people are already on the platform.
29:58
[SPEAKER_04]: So it's no brand for me to just go inside the group.
30:00
[SPEAKER_04]: I got school, but I'm realizing when I transition a lot of people start to fall in awe because they haven't been to go from Facebook to another platform.
30:08
[SPEAKER_04]: I got both pay and community work.
30:10
[SPEAKER_04]: I got three, but I got two on school, one on Facebook.
30:14
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'm just trying to see like do I want to make community Facebook?
30:17
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, it's, so the way it's a manual paid.
30:20
[SPEAKER_04]: So I'm using this platform called think if it were all my payments go through all my classes or on.
30:26
[SPEAKER_04]: But once they pay through think if it, we have a spreadsheet with their name that we manually, so it's a lot of manual work, but
30:33
[SPEAKER_04]: I mean, it works for us at the time.
30:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Sure, for sure, for sure, for sure.
30:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because I think that's the thing, like, and, you know, like, I just started a community on school.
30:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I have a community on Facebook, but, and I think it's probably like 1,000 people on there.
30:48
[SPEAKER_01]: But I have, you know, like, I've moved away from it, but to your point, like, they're on Facebook already.
30:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, ready, yeah.
30:55
[SPEAKER_01]: So it's a good idea to do that.
30:57
[SPEAKER_01]: And then, so like, what, you know, how do you,
31:02
[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, I help people, you know, write books and build six, seven figure brands from their book, right from their story, and you know, get speaking engagements, you know, I've created a home role map to, you know, creating 15 streams of income from a book, right?
31:21
[SPEAKER_01]: The number one thing that I've had is when I speak to a client, they always look at their expertise and they want to write about what they want to write about, most who me telling them, let me just take your expertise, let me see what people want.
31:38
[SPEAKER_01]: And let me make sure expertise with what people want to make this a book that people are going to buy.
31:45
[SPEAKER_01]: My question to you is, I know that people out there who are like, yes, I want to build the community, but they want to build it on what they want them to build on, right?
31:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, they might say, you know, I do, I do here.
31:59
[SPEAKER_01]: So I want to start a hair braiding community.
32:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
32:03
[SPEAKER_01]: What's your advice to those type of people who are kind of stuck and like, listen, I want to build the community.
32:10
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a barber and I want to build a barber community.
32:13
[SPEAKER_01]: like how do you decipher and figure out what is the best community to build?
32:18
[SPEAKER_04]: So I would say whatever they skill are, do build a community on it because that's what I did.
32:24
[SPEAKER_04]: But once I got the people in the community by me giving them a free, we go on through the forum.
32:28
[SPEAKER_04]: I was able to ask those necessary questions to see now what the y'all want.
32:32
[SPEAKER_04]: So I got y'all in based on what I thought y'all wanted but with these different engagement posts every day You're gonna tell me what you want.
32:39
[SPEAKER_04]: So I don't even teach T-shirts anymore That's what I started out with but because of what they said they want Now I'm teaching business how to turn a skill into digital products I never thought I would be teaching digital products AI challenges, but that's what the people want and then a main thing I would say is you gotta be willing to leave all
32:57
[SPEAKER_04]: We'd be feeling like what we started doing in 2017.
32:59
[SPEAKER_04]: We're going to keep doing.
33:00
[SPEAKER_04]: It's going to work.
33:01
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, I'd say we were all the time.
33:03
[SPEAKER_04]: I think I'm saying it wrong.
33:04
[SPEAKER_04]: All trees don't get you a new doll.
33:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's the wrong.
33:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
33:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Was it with it?
33:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Was it old dogs?
33:10
[SPEAKER_04]: It's not so weird.
33:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah.
33:12
[SPEAKER_04]: If you do the outdated strategies to get new money.
33:15
[SPEAKER_04]: So if you see, I want to start a community on a hair.
33:18
[SPEAKER_04]: Once you get them in there, they might want you to do brahe.
33:21
[SPEAKER_04]: Or they might want you to show them how to get, like, it might, how to set up a salon.
33:25
[SPEAKER_04]: But you want to know that if you just don't start.
33:27
[SPEAKER_04]: So you don't have to make it perfect.
33:29
[SPEAKER_04]: Whatever your skill is, start the community.
33:31
[SPEAKER_04]: But start asking these engagement questions every day to see what they really need help.
33:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
33:35
[SPEAKER_01]: And I love it.
33:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And so you actually just helped change my,
33:39
[SPEAKER_01]: mindset and perspective actually because, I mean, you know, my was, you know, bit by coach as well.
33:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and, you know, you know, he, he doesn't like free, you know, and all, you know, and so for me, um, I kind of shied away from free because, you know, you know, one of the philosophies he had taught us was,
34:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, if you attract free people, right, they're going to look at you as that free person, um, and it's going to be hard to convert a free person into a paid person.
34:12
[SPEAKER_01]: But, but one of my sessions that you just giving me and and free is perspective, right, because the truth is my man does do free too.
34:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, that's right.
34:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't think about it.
34:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, dude.
34:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Just doesn't, you know, all of his free content is on YouTube.
34:29
[SPEAKER_01]: And he uses his YouTube to now funnel people into this game, right?
34:33
[SPEAKER_01]: And so for me, which is well, again, it's all about perspective.
34:37
[SPEAKER_01]: When I hear him say, don't do free, I'm like, all right, I'm, I'm not going to do anything free, but it's the most true do free.
34:43
[SPEAKER_01]: But the, the perspective that you just gave me was like,
34:48
[SPEAKER_01]: free is your promotion, your market research.
34:55
[SPEAKER_01]: It's trying to figure that out.
34:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's the one thing that I haven't done is, you know, you kind of build in a silo where you're like, you know, as the teacher, I'm going to tell you what you need.
35:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, opposed to getting you into a focus group.
35:10
[SPEAKER_04]: That's what it is, that's what it is.
35:13
[SPEAKER_04]: I tell people all the time, because like right now, I have a high ticket offer, it started at 5K, but now it's that 10K, but we'll in the pay it.
35:21
[SPEAKER_04]: But a lot of those folks that hit the 10K offer, they started in a three-class, and I love doing data.
35:26
[SPEAKER_04]: Hey y'all, how did y'all find me?
35:28
[SPEAKER_04]: All I do on one of the free challenges, and then I got the offer out of the challenge.
35:33
[SPEAKER_04]: then I join your first community, then I join your second.
35:36
[SPEAKER_04]: Like everybody has ascended the way I wanted them to.
35:40
[SPEAKER_04]: But they would have never done it if I would have just been like, oh, by my pay class, I don't know you yet.
35:44
[SPEAKER_04]: But if I can get you inside this community and give you value, I hate free value, that's not value.
35:50
[SPEAKER_04]: It's just big flow.
35:52
[SPEAKER_04]: But if you get them some free information is, and this is how I consider free information.
35:56
[SPEAKER_04]: Instead of showing you, let me just give you an example.
35:59
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not going to show you how to create a funnel.
36:02
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to show you the five Ws around the funnel, what is the funnel, why you need a funnel, who, who, when you get your funnel done, who you can sell to, where you can market and when it's the best time to market.
36:14
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to get that much information for free that by the end of the class, you ask and how to make the funnel.
36:19
[SPEAKER_04]: Come join my membership.
36:20
[SPEAKER_04]: So the information you're giving is not going to take away.
36:24
[SPEAKER_04]: It's just going to let people see she know what she's talking about.
36:27
[SPEAKER_04]: Let me go ahead and pay an invest.
36:29
[SPEAKER_04]: So that's what works for me.
36:31
[SPEAKER_04]: And when I joined my own program, it was like, wait.
36:34
[SPEAKER_04]: Um, you made all this money from a free.
36:36
[SPEAKER_04]: I said, yes, or he was like, look at that work for you.
36:38
[SPEAKER_04]: I do your thing.
36:40
[SPEAKER_04]: But he's really big on having multiple offers.
36:44
[SPEAKER_04]: So like I said, I got the monthly membership.
36:47
[SPEAKER_04]: And I just thought of my height ticket.
36:49
[SPEAKER_04]: And I see why he said.
36:50
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'm because there are people that
36:52
[SPEAKER_04]: Once they left my second membership, they was going to join my coach's program.
36:57
[SPEAKER_04]: So they was giving them 10, 20K.
36:59
[SPEAKER_04]: They was like, well, Carl's, you don't got nothing else after this.
37:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
37:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no, no, no, no.
37:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that was one of the biggest mistakes I made when I first started coaching.
37:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I remember, which is why, you know, same reason I went to, I took it.
37:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I remember I started a group.
37:15
[SPEAKER_01]: I forgot, I mailbox money.
37:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I forgot what it was called, but I started a group.
37:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I had a bunch of people in there.
37:22
[SPEAKER_01]: and what happened, I hope one client go from six figures to seven figures, right?
37:27
[SPEAKER_01]: So once she went to seven figures and I said, I hope she don't get back, I tell her story all the time, and I still, you know, I'm still good at it.
37:34
[SPEAKER_01]: But I tell her story all the time is that when I hope her get from six figures to seven figures,
37:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't have nothing else for her.
37:40
[SPEAKER_01]: There was just that group still.
37:43
[SPEAKER_01]: And so now because everybody in the group knew that she grew from six to seven figures, now she stopped getting value from the group because all of the people are just taking.
37:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Take it.
37:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't learn it when I learn it when I'm... Yeah.
37:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And I remember one day,
37:58
[SPEAKER_01]: uh she was like she hit me she was like ash uh you know i signed up for this other program and i'm like what uh she was like i thank you thank you for getting me to this place but you don't really got nothing else for me anymore you know and it was that at that moment that i realized like i got to start something that's geared towards high ticket um and i i would i would love for you to talk about this a little bit too um
38:23
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, you know, the Bible talks about it.
38:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I know my retox about B do have, you know, the seven habits of highly effective people talks about B do have and I I love that concept right because I think that a lot of people just believe that if they if they just do something.
38:46
[SPEAKER_01]: they're going to have a result, but it's not necessarily the doing that happens first, it has to be the becoming.
38:54
[SPEAKER_01]: You have to become if somebody, you know, does it want to be here anymore?
39:01
[SPEAKER_01]: What they do is going to coincide with that.
39:05
[SPEAKER_01]: When you became, let's just talk about
39:15
[SPEAKER_01]: He became some of the different things and that doing, how did you have what you had, right?
39:36
[SPEAKER_01]: What I see a lot of times is that even when you have these different offers, right?
39:41
[SPEAKER_01]: The free person has to become the person that's willing to pay.
39:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the become the person that's willing to see the value and high ticket, right?
39:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And so, can you talk a little bit about that, meaning the transformation that you're seeing of people within your community that allows them
40:02
[SPEAKER_01]: to become the person that takes a high ticket and a reason why I'm asking, you know, and just to kind of set up the question or the answer in the way is to kind of help people understand that when they're starting out, they have to be able to meet people where they are and also have a product or service for them when they become something a little bit about.
40:29
[SPEAKER_04]: So this is a great question asked up for me.
40:32
[SPEAKER_04]: Another way that I was able to really build my community is because I've always been transparent and vulnerable.
40:38
[SPEAKER_04]: Like I never tell them I started from the top to the bottom.
40:40
[SPEAKER_04]: Like I always tell my story of how it was in the hotel.
40:44
[SPEAKER_04]: They literally seem in the hotel.
40:45
[SPEAKER_04]: I talk about how I barely have food.
40:47
[SPEAKER_04]: I barely had gas in my car.
40:49
[SPEAKER_04]: I talk about my struggle.
40:50
[SPEAKER_04]: So when they see me growing in some of my sustains, it's by man.
40:54
[SPEAKER_04]: I see her do it so I can do it.
40:55
[SPEAKER_04]: So that's my biggest motto.
40:57
[SPEAKER_04]: If I can do it, you can do it too.
40:58
[SPEAKER_04]: But it's one thing to see that I can do it versus not that I have a community of people.
41:03
[SPEAKER_04]: that I help, like you said, you have the girl go to seven figures.
41:06
[SPEAKER_04]: When I do my challenges, I do my lives.
41:09
[SPEAKER_04]: I bring them up first.
41:10
[SPEAKER_04]: Let me show you, it's people that look just like you.
41:13
[SPEAKER_04]: People that has been through the same thing you've been through.
41:15
[SPEAKER_04]: Whether you say I'm too old to do it.
41:17
[SPEAKER_04]: I got an old person.
41:18
[SPEAKER_04]: She's seven years old.
41:19
[SPEAKER_04]: It's this bigger.
41:20
[SPEAKER_04]: Whether you say I got to me and kids.
41:21
[SPEAKER_04]: She got seven kids.
41:22
[SPEAKER_04]: Still, he's like, so I bring these people up and let them tell they story up.
41:26
[SPEAKER_04]: Where they started to where they are now in my program.
41:32
[SPEAKER_04]: Because now you want to get around like my the people that if I can't and that's why communities are being people need accountability.
41:39
[SPEAKER_04]: I can tell you right now, okay, make this email do this content, but if nobody's holding you accountable, you're going to It's like going to start life and you're going to end up saying, well, my my dollars in the hospital, like you're going to go with all these sisters.
41:51
[SPEAKER_04]: That's why community is very important because when they get around each other, like I said, you all the time.
41:56
[SPEAKER_04]: People join my community for me, but they stay because of each other.
41:59
[SPEAKER_04]: And when I realized that I started creating the accountability group, that's what I called them.
42:05
[SPEAKER_04]: I got an accountability group for every state in my paper around.
42:08
[SPEAKER_04]: So when you join, there's a Georgia, there's a Florida, there's a Alabama, there's a North Carolina, in every state.
42:14
[SPEAKER_04]: And I give them homework and say,
42:17
[SPEAKER_04]: every every year you guys have to meet up and do a meeting great because I just understand with life life and right now y'all gonna need each other.
42:26
[SPEAKER_04]: So there's people in there that have these five figure stickers, but if you got these people around them that said like okay you did I can do it too.
42:34
[SPEAKER_04]: It's a no-brainer to go to my next program.
42:36
[SPEAKER_04]: So now when I pick my next program I'm like hey, it is what I love about kind of building a group.
42:40
[SPEAKER_04]: I say hey you guys I got my next offer coming up is gonna be five
42:47
[SPEAKER_04]: And they finna lead that accountability group to go to the next level, they're going to be like, no friend, why don't we, I want to go to, so now they're trying to kind of gather like, what can we do?
42:56
[SPEAKER_04]: So I can make this man and be able to go with y'all.
42:58
[SPEAKER_04]: They don't want to lead that friend.
43:00
[SPEAKER_04]: So I knew that if I put them in, I kind of built the groups together.
43:04
[SPEAKER_04]: And I say, oh, I got this newest program, y'all been a graduate, okay, I'm in a graduate with you, girl, I'm okay.
43:09
[SPEAKER_04]: What I got to do, I'm in it.
43:10
[SPEAKER_04]: So by default, because I'm in a community with like mind of people, that's making the mood.
43:15
[SPEAKER_04]: They getting the, they, they getting the revenue today, saying they can make.
43:18
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
43:19
[SPEAKER_04]: I got to get it too.
43:20
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
43:20
[SPEAKER_04]: And that's what I love about being a mentor.
43:22
[SPEAKER_04]: She's, I draw a mentor.
43:23
[SPEAKER_04]: She's every year because I can't unsee it.
43:26
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure.
43:26
[SPEAKER_04]: When I get in the room and I love how
43:31
[SPEAKER_04]: The first mentioned party I went to and seen it, I said I got to go put in the work to get me one to the last year.
43:37
[SPEAKER_04]: I bought my first 1.5 million dollar home.
43:39
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, like, let's go, let's go, let's go, let me, you're like, he, he, he, he it's called me to that community and when you get in there and you see other people doing it, unless you see that I can do it to, I mean, this is not impossible.
43:50
[SPEAKER_04]: These are really black entrepreneurs, saying they don't want to seven, eight, nine figures.
43:54
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to do it to.
43:55
[SPEAKER_04]: So I created the community to show them the same thing here are old, young,
44:00
[SPEAKER_04]: somebody that got multiple kids, somebody just a board, somebody just, and they still doing the work to get to the money, and then put you out together so they can rub off on you.
44:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, so I want to pack some stuff, but like, you just gave a cheat code that I think people don't realize is that people don't pay for information, they pay for the community.
44:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, they pay for that kind of ability.
44:24
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's the thing because
44:28
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, information has always been out there, right?
44:30
[SPEAKER_01]: So you think about YouTube, you think about Google, like there's always been information, but with all this information, there's still people not implementing the information that they have.
44:39
[SPEAKER_01]: And so even with AI, people like, well, why would I join your group?
44:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Why would I do this stuff if I have access to AI?
44:46
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you ain't going to do shit.
44:47
[SPEAKER_01]: You ain't going to do that with the United States.
44:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And so to your point, it's like, it's the accountability, right?
44:53
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like people, you know, you know, come for the accountability.
44:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I, I wanted to point that out because, you know, you're, you know, saying like, like, that's something that people don't realize is that you, like, same for me is like,
45:07
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to be with my day one friends so bad, but I can't.
45:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because, you know, it's not going to put, I don't want to be the top of the bottom.
45:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm saying, I don't want to be the most successful.
45:19
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to be the one with the most money.
45:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I like to go in rooms where nobody sneezes.
45:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Like if I say, oh, I made $10 million, that's the most I've ever made in my life.
45:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Like nobody's like, oh my God.
45:32
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh my, right, like, that's all you've been.
45:35
[SPEAKER_01]: How do you say it's crazy?
45:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, like, I'm around people who are like, all right, like, they did it in a day.
45:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, exactly.
45:42
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I'm saying?
45:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, yeah, who, like, making that type of money is their norm to the point where, no, it's so funny because I remember,
45:52
[SPEAKER_01]: I am so this is what we're hiring, right?
45:54
[SPEAKER_01]: So I had gotten four five million out of slow.
45:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, God, great.
46:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And the shield.
46:02
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think he had posted me on his post for whatever.
46:06
[SPEAKER_01]: He was just like, your congratulations.
46:08
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, ask, you know, ask a teammate five million in a day or whatever.
46:12
[SPEAKER_01]: And then one of my friends sent me the post like one guy who up with, and he said, LOL.
46:18
[SPEAKER_01]: And so, in my head, I'm like, he don't, he like, no, I'm believing.
46:23
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't believe it.
46:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, in his mind, he's like, no way.
46:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wait.
46:28
[SPEAKER_01]: It's no way to fight.
46:30
[SPEAKER_01]: It's no way.
46:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
46:32
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like, hello, hello.
46:33
[SPEAKER_01]: And I didn't say nothing because I was just like, man, so crazy that.
46:36
[SPEAKER_01]: people don't realize like this is really out there.
46:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And so for me, I only want to be around people that, you know, are making that type of money.
46:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Definitely.
46:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Because again, I like my goal ultimately is to want to not think of business, right?
46:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, obviously, if I want to be a billionaire, but for me, like, you know, I take my goals step by the time, you know, and I'm like,
47:04
[SPEAKER_01]: outline.
47:05
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not that I know what it looks like, but it feels like, so I want to be around other people who have had my figure exits or they're working, they're right up there, or they're making all this money.
47:17
[SPEAKER_01]: And so that proximity is important.
47:20
[SPEAKER_01]: It is very important.
47:20
[SPEAKER_01]: But the other thing though, is that from $15 dollars to like a $1.5 million
47:33
[SPEAKER_01]: How does that feel, like, how does it feel to, like, be living, but before you answer, about the feeling part, or I don't know if I can reference our Kelly Kelly, let me, like, have you ever been?
47:54
[SPEAKER_01]: When he's like, did you have a thing that you would be this week?
47:57
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I thought about, but I like, I don't know that.
48:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if it's true, but I don't think it's the problem with it.
48:03
[SPEAKER_01]: The question is, did you have a thing that you would be this week?
48:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Did you think about like, where you are right now?
48:11
[SPEAKER_04]: was that a vision for you ever never never remember I was raised by a single parent seven kids we stayed in a small town country like never seen it never been around it and even when I hit my birthday this is gay in my head everybody telling me that it's called a man in my head I'm thinking oh it's called a man so let me go ahead and take everything I need to do before before we go on but then
48:34
[SPEAKER_04]: Like I said, I lay with the value.
48:36
[SPEAKER_04]: That's how I knew it wasn't about the money for me.
48:38
[SPEAKER_04]: It was the passion for me.
48:40
[SPEAKER_04]: And because I was leading with value, God was giving me the money by default.
48:44
[SPEAKER_04]: Like every month, I wake up and be like, wait, what?
48:46
[SPEAKER_04]: Just just from these communities running on autopilot.
48:49
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'm all of here doing something else.
48:51
[SPEAKER_04]: That's bone is money.
48:52
[SPEAKER_04]: Just from me showing up and serving his people.
48:55
[SPEAKER_04]: And I just feel like, especially, oh my God, I'm not all right.
48:59
[SPEAKER_04]: But I just feel like when I was in that hotel,
49:01
[SPEAKER_04]: and I felt like taking my life, I felt like literally leaving my kids everybody's girl.
49:05
[SPEAKER_04]: Like that was everything that was going through my head.
49:06
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, oh my God, what are they going to do?
49:08
[SPEAKER_04]: I felt like because I stayed 10 toes down.
49:10
[SPEAKER_04]: And I was like, you know what, God, it's all right right now.
49:12
[SPEAKER_04]: And I'm going to continue doing it.
49:14
[SPEAKER_04]: He was like, I'm going to get you double for your trouble.
49:16
[SPEAKER_04]: Because you didn't give up.
49:17
[SPEAKER_04]: And the way he's born, my mind, every single year, like literally last year was my biggest year.
49:24
[SPEAKER_04]: I was able to freaking go off the bottom by a G-wagon, like this is stuff I've never seen in my life.
49:30
[SPEAKER_04]: until I saw the Gettin' in these mission shields, Gettin' in these communities.
49:33
[SPEAKER_04]: So to be able to be here now and then I end up having two more kids.
49:37
[SPEAKER_04]: So I got two on the two, which is I've always wanted more kids because the kids I had first, that was like, they went through the struggle with me.
49:45
[SPEAKER_04]: So I told guy like, once I become successful, I want to raise the family again.
49:49
[SPEAKER_04]: So now I got two kids on the two that I literally am a stay at home on.
49:53
[SPEAKER_04]: work from my laptop and make great money and say like my mom still retired like just literally I can wake up and pinch myself and then I'll just start with me taking my skill giving it away and then creating these communities around it you know using AI for my systems turning audience and digital products like everything that I'm gonna be teaching people this is what I'm doing and I'm a living proof and I love telling my students if I can do it you can do it
50:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and so I had a question though, too, because you got a big rock on your finger, too.
50:24
[SPEAKER_01]: So I do want to translate this into that in a second.
50:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
50:30
[SPEAKER_01]: But talk to me about your high ticket program, though, right?
50:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Because a lot of people, you know, a lot of people that watch my show might not want to go to a challenge, they might just want the high ticket.
50:46
[SPEAKER_01]: What type of a value
50:48
[SPEAKER_04]: Are you giving in that high ticket like like talk a little bit about what what Of course, so I'm basically going to show them how to take their skill whatever they good at and if you're not good at nothing You can still join a program and I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you what you can do as a skill What we're gonna take their skill and we're gonna turn into digital products first because I will love for you to create a free community I'm just really big on create a community first
51:08
[SPEAKER_04]: Once you take those digital products, we're going to use AI to set up our systems, our automation, and then we're going to use challenges.
51:15
[SPEAKER_04]: I want to teach them how to do their own webinar.
51:17
[SPEAKER_04]: They own challenges.
51:18
[SPEAKER_04]: Once you build a community, you've got to keep that community going.
51:21
[SPEAKER_04]: So, say, for instance, you say, well, I got my free community, but how do I get my pay community?
51:25
[SPEAKER_04]: And how do I keep members in there?
51:26
[SPEAKER_04]: So, I'm going to just show them the whole inside your blueprint of how to take their skills and multiply their screens and income with digital products.
51:33
[SPEAKER_04]: Use AI.
51:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and it is that is that like and so so it's so is that is there any done for you portion in that or it's just like training them I and it's all crazy you said it because I did a polling my group.
51:45
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm like who I'll like me to set up your finals set up your PowerPoint slides set up and that was like I want you so I like that might be an offer I add in there
51:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, I say that is because I like like I know for me, um, you know, I got ADHD.
52:00
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
52:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I already know that if you give me a lot of stuff, I need somebody to do it for me.
52:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Just do it.
52:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
52:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Like for me, I always, I'm paying premium.
52:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I'm like, I pay.
52:11
[SPEAKER_01]: So I could get it done fastest.
52:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
52:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Because,
52:14
[SPEAKER_01]: At the end of the day, you could tell me all the stuff to do and hire this person, but if you just do it for me, I'll invest in that and then let this thing kind of run it on autopilot.
52:24
[SPEAKER_01]: And so, you know, that's definitely something you know what I say less.
52:27
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm going to add it.
52:28
[SPEAKER_04]: So yes, it will be a down for you package or it can be a package where I just saw you had to do it.
52:33
[SPEAKER_04]: I saw up on weekly lives teaching you everything.
52:35
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, walking through a step by step.
52:37
[SPEAKER_04]: I love giving homework.
52:38
[SPEAKER_04]: So, hey, once I teach you, let's all do homework together, you're going to have that kind of ability, you're going to have that community, so you're not doing it by yourself.
52:45
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm just going to be a four-month program, so at the internet four months, you will be ready to take that same skill and now show others, so you'll be able to teach them.
52:54
[SPEAKER_04]: You will be able to show them how to create communities like you, you just pass them on the tour.
52:58
[SPEAKER_04]: Right, right.
52:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I love that bottle though, too, because like you said,
53:02
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not about gay keeping and that's not love about, you know, you know, us new young millionaires is because there is no gay keeping and that's not like when I moved to Atlanta, you know, from New York.
53:14
[SPEAKER_01]: So when I moved to Atlanta, that was the biggest thing in New York.
53:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We like to compete like we like we like we like people to do better, but just not better than us.
53:24
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't say and so and so, you know, when you struggle in
53:31
[SPEAKER_01]: The moment you start to look like you surpassing now is like a problem, now you become the competency.
53:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
53:37
[SPEAKER_01]: And when I came to to you know Atlanta, it was the first time that I saw that like, you know, I mean, you know, salute to my brother Neo, like Neo with my first person, like I remember like it was actually this podcast, it was like four years ago I was shooting it.
53:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, he was just bringing people for me, you know, for me to for me to interview and then he was like he to he gave me this $8,000 play.
53:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Like he like he just kind of told me.
54:01
[SPEAKER_01]: He was like, you know, do this thing and like, and then it was the overnight thing with the overnight ebook play.
54:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, and so I did it.
54:08
[SPEAKER_01]: And I made $8,000 in a weekend and this was just like on the humble and then I sort of get in a random guys and I'm like, man, they're making all this money, but they tell that they're not
54:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Stingy with them now they're giving a re-thorse to everything.
54:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, so yeah, so now let's go to the rock, right?
54:25
[SPEAKER_01]: So so so you got two kids, right?
54:28
[SPEAKER_01]: How do you find a partner?
54:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Cuz I'm assuming you found your partner while you're rich now.
54:34
[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, I'm gonna be dumbed.
54:40
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay Let's go
54:42
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay, so I met my husband when I wanted to say we was about 18 years old and he struggled with me like we lived in a car together.
54:50
[SPEAKER_04]: We lived in a hotel together like we struggled together.
54:53
[SPEAKER_04]: He ended up going to jail and I divorced him back in 2017, you know, because he was in jail for about two years at that time and I didn't know like what his how long it was on kick from in there.
55:03
[SPEAKER_04]: So then you know I came into money in 20 20 20.
55:07
[SPEAKER_04]: and I try to get on the dating scene like, hey, we're doing when they were kind of my heart because at that point I was standing in a condo, like a high rise.
55:15
[SPEAKER_04]: They were kind of my high rise like, oh, this girl got a little chat.
55:18
[SPEAKER_04]: So now we went from, I wanna get to know you too.
55:20
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm gonna get to know your package.
55:22
[SPEAKER_04]: I wanna see, oh, you buy a car for everybody, buy me a car too.
55:25
[SPEAKER_04]: So it's like, I was a track man.
55:27
[SPEAKER_04]: Excuse me.
55:28
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh yeah!
55:29
[SPEAKER_04]: When they sing, I was, when they sing, because I had three cars in.
55:33
[SPEAKER_04]: In my garage, it was like, oh, these are yours.
55:36
[SPEAKER_04]: Can I draw one?
55:37
[SPEAKER_04]: Can't you give me, like, it was late.
55:39
[SPEAKER_04]: It was, are these old women?
55:41
[SPEAKER_04]: These are old men, like in the 30s, 40s.
55:45
[SPEAKER_04]: You know, like literally, like, oh, like, got their hand down.
55:49
[SPEAKER_04]: And I was like, I went through about two dating.
55:51
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, I went, I dated like three people.
55:53
[SPEAKER_04]: And they was both through them with the same way.
55:55
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, they started out one way within this way.
55:57
[SPEAKER_04]: It's like, oh, wait, you've got, you pay more money than me.
55:59
[SPEAKER_04]: So, a question should pay for dinner this time.
56:01
[SPEAKER_04]: A question should take us on a trip with show.
56:03
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, it was like, I don't make us much, but I'm just gonna keep my look on it.
56:06
[SPEAKER_04]: You should do everything.
56:07
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, that's how the mentality was.
56:08
[SPEAKER_04]: And I was like, you know what?
56:09
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah, I'm not going to do this but I'm going to get my man let me see if he out of jail because I'm not going to play these guys, so I happen to go on Instagram because I didn't know how to contact him And I put his name up and I just saw him a little DM DM me back in five minutes and at this point he don't even know what I got going on.
56:28
[SPEAKER_04]: He's just like man, you know
56:29
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm happy to hear from you what you got going on so I tell them and I bite him over to my hot rise You know cuz I can see the whole city and he coming there and just literally start crying He was like I am so proud of you like I remember we see remember we see the cars together We used to throw it together and see like to see you like this now
56:47
[SPEAKER_04]: And he didn't even ask me for anything to be honest.
56:50
[SPEAKER_04]: I told him I wanted to get married back again because we was already married at the voice.
56:54
[SPEAKER_04]: So I told him I'm like, I want to marry you again.
56:56
[SPEAKER_04]: Like, I'm done dating.
56:57
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not going to do this anymore.
56:59
[SPEAKER_04]: And I said, I only want to be with somebody.
57:01
[SPEAKER_04]: If you was with me at my worst, you deserve to be with me at my best.
57:05
[SPEAKER_04]: So I came and went back and got him.
57:07
[SPEAKER_04]: We got remarried.
57:08
[SPEAKER_04]: We had two kids together.
57:09
[SPEAKER_04]: And he's a stay on dad.
57:11
[SPEAKER_04]: I told him I don't want him working.
57:12
[SPEAKER_04]: I want you to take any kids.
57:13
[SPEAKER_04]: Well, I can focus on my next webinar, my next challenge.
57:16
[SPEAKER_04]: So he's a stay on dad for a time.
57:19
[SPEAKER_04]: Great great dad.
57:20
[SPEAKER_04]: Don't have a love this story, young.
57:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow, I wasn't expecting that.
57:24
[SPEAKER_01]: I really.
57:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no, but you know, honestly, I didn't, you know, because, because again, I'm trying to do the math.
57:28
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, All right, she got two kids already.
57:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, she got two new kids.
57:31
[SPEAKER_01]: And he, he raised me on.
57:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Hi, so, so in my head.
57:35
[SPEAKER_01]: This is like a, this is a happily ever after it is.
57:40
[SPEAKER_04]: I didn't expect it.
57:41
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
57:41
[SPEAKER_04]: Okay.
57:42
[SPEAKER_04]: And then like, Jess, we're having a background of, you know, being in the street.
57:46
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
57:46
[SPEAKER_04]: He been, we've been back together since 2021.
57:48
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
57:49
[SPEAKER_04]: Whole life literally done a three season.
57:51
[SPEAKER_04]: I just hadn't started on business.
57:53
[SPEAKER_04]: So now he got his own community where he teaches, like, this is a street man never went live with now.
57:58
[SPEAKER_01]: He's on live every week teaching classes and it's like,
58:01
[SPEAKER_01]: I need you to connect me because I have another podcast that we do call crime pays.
58:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, man.
58:08
[SPEAKER_01]: We're making sure you're going to check that out too, but we have a podcast.
58:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Me, my brother, Jay White, where we do call crime pays, where we interview formerly incarcerated men and women and show how they're thriving now.
58:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, so we just had a dope episode with me and DCs and we did, you know, we we got He would love that because that's all and I'm like, yo, yeah, you got to share your story Yeah, sure for sure even his family be looking at him like man.
58:31
[SPEAKER_04]: You don't need a three-step Yeah, yeah, only because I went back and got him and just saw him a different life.
58:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no, yeah, so yeah We definitely got he got he got a he got a sitting on a cramp pace But yeah, I love that story and I and I I guess the reason why I was asking
58:45
[SPEAKER_01]: was because I mean, you answered it though, but not in the way I thought, right?
58:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
58:50
[SPEAKER_01]: You answered it because I feel like, you know, there is this level of intimidation, you know, when it comes to women who make money.
58:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
58:58
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I'm saying?
58:59
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I love the fact that, yeah, you went through the dating pool.
59:03
[SPEAKER_01]: What they say the dating pool had?
59:04
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, man.
59:04
[SPEAKER_04]: It got pissed.
59:06
[SPEAKER_04]: It got manure.
59:07
[SPEAKER_04]: It got throw up in there.
59:09
[SPEAKER_04]: It's everything in there.
59:10
[SPEAKER_01]: But what is what is adding to that, right?
59:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I'm in my 40s.
59:14
[SPEAKER_01]: And I mean, we had codes and morals and certain things, but I'm watching people, you know, in the 30s and the 40s, even some like OGs that I used to look up to like people would like there's no rules like people are acting.
59:30
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even know what this.
59:31
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't even say feminine.
59:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I like it.
59:33
[SPEAKER_04]: It's like, it's, it's, it gets feminine energy because like you say they are in timid 80.
59:38
[SPEAKER_04]: Right.
59:39
[SPEAKER_04]: So it, and this is what I tell people because I don't have a traditional Mary that can a day is the man with the head of the household.
59:45
[SPEAKER_04]: The man was the one that went out and got it and the one man had to stay on with the kids.
59:49
[SPEAKER_04]: Oh, I ain't that type of woman.
59:50
[SPEAKER_04]: So I was able to tell my husband when he came back.
59:52
[SPEAKER_04]: I'm not going to be no stay at home.
59:54
[SPEAKER_04]: I got to go there and get it.
59:55
[SPEAKER_04]: I got to go to these comforts.
59:56
[SPEAKER_04]: I got to go to these mentorships.
59:57
[SPEAKER_04]: I need you to do that and I'm going to do the opposite.
59:59
[SPEAKER_04]: So we kind of switch roles and I'm fine with that.
1:00:01
[SPEAKER_04]: But before he came back, like, yeah, these men was very, you know, you would, I would forgive us.
1:00:08
[SPEAKER_04]: I was sleeping with the enemy.
1:00:09
[SPEAKER_04]: Like I felt like it was at one point when I was dating.
1:00:13
[SPEAKER_04]: And then my community, um, I dropped this product and they like 100K in like two hours, right?
1:00:17
[SPEAKER_04]: And I, when I looked at my phone, I rolled over like, hey, I just did 100K and he was like, so good, that ain't my 100K.
1:00:24
[SPEAKER_04]: You gonna give me a hand.
1:00:25
[SPEAKER_04]: It was like, it was no excitement, like, I'm proud you, it was like, because it's like, I ain't making that kind of money.
1:00:31
[SPEAKER_04]: What you, what you, what you bragging for me for, it ain't even like you're sharing the wind, because you might, you might partner this point.
1:00:38
[SPEAKER_04]: I think you brag, and what you try to say, I said, oh, I can't do it.
1:00:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wow.
1:00:42
[SPEAKER_01]: He did this.
1:00:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
1:00:44
[SPEAKER_01]: And so the beauty of it, like I love this story, right?
1:00:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Because you're struggled together.
1:00:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:00:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And then even, I think the fact that he got emotional,
1:00:56
[SPEAKER_01]: He did.
1:00:57
[SPEAKER_01]: When he saw your win, his was more special about that story.
1:01:00
[SPEAKER_04]: Yeah.
1:01:01
[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to say them because it could have easily been jealousy.
1:01:05
[SPEAKER_01]: It could have easily been like, damn, oh, like, what's the, what's the, what's the, what's the, what's what they say?
1:01:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Must be nice.
1:01:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Must be nice.
1:01:13
[SPEAKER_01]: He could, he could have must be right.
1:01:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
1:01:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:01:18
[SPEAKER_01]: But instead there was this level of
1:01:21
[SPEAKER_01]: joy.
1:01:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:01:22
[SPEAKER_01]: You're gonna say, and I, and I, and I, and salute, you know, salute, salute, salute to your husband, salute to your partner, because I think that's, that's big.
1:01:30
[SPEAKER_01]: That's important.
1:01:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that need that support system.
1:01:34
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.

[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I'm saying?
1:03:24
[SPEAKER_01]: It's heard on the people, it's to show people with what you can do.
1:03:26
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that the authenticity of who you are, your story, your background, you came from, man, I love it.
1:03:34
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I have this, I have the same, right?
1:03:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we all, whether you're Christian, Muslim,
1:03:39
[SPEAKER_01]: all of the books, you know, scripts to say we're made in the image and like this a God, right?
1:03:45
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I have to say, and I say, you are greatness on display, right?
1:03:48
[SPEAKER_01]: G-O-D greatness on display, right?
1:03:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Because what other, you, like, you cannot prove God no other way than to get on the other side of a, of a abundance, right?
1:04:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Meaning like you, you, you were down and now you're up.
1:04:04
[SPEAKER_01]: And so you are that.
1:04:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Like when I see you, I see God, like, like the only, it could only be God, the only.
1:04:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Only for you to be like, and I don't think y'all understand, like, I don't want to harp on this because we're going to wrap this up, but I want to harp on it, but I don't think y'all understand.
1:04:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Like this woman was living in a hotel for five months was ready to call it quits.
1:04:31
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, saluting a son too, right?
1:04:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Your son was there to remind you why.
1:04:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And within months of you not giving up, you may five figures and then created a seven figure business and not, you know, like, like, you know, what they say, don't do it to you, get it right, do it to you, can't get it wrong, right?
1:04:56
[SPEAKER_01]: You didn't just make seven figures one time.
1:04:58
[SPEAKER_01]: You just kept doing it over and over and over again.
1:05:02
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
1:05:03
[SPEAKER_01]: And again, and then to reconnect, you know,
1:05:09
[SPEAKER_01]: We need to move, we need to, we need to, we need to catch this stuff.
1:05:15
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a movie, y'all.

1:05:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Like this is a, this is a, this is bigger.
1:05:20
[SPEAKER_01]: This is bigger, this is bigger than automation, baby.
1:05:24
[SPEAKER_01]: You can do automation.
1:05:25
[SPEAKER_04]: Let me know when you're ready.
