• 1:17
  Speaker 1: being an entrepreneur, being a female, being a female and
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: how you know it's really interesting being a female and today.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: You know, when if you just flashed back twenty years ago,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: you know, trying to do what you're trying to do today,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: you had to ask for permission in a way, I'm
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: gonna say that, let's just say, because the social media
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: wasn't there, so let's permission you had. Maybe a radio
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: station might be permission there. Can you do mere favor
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: over here? Oh? Yes, social media hasn'tmpowered the female voice. Correct,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: you're correct, And I'm gonna let you in on a
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: little secret. This is my eighth year. So when you
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: talk about no internet, no social media, that was me
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: when I started my first business, and so a lot
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: of that was knocking on doors, make phone calls, showing
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: up prepared right, doing like we say, what most people
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: won't do in order to be successful. What happened once
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: social media was introduced, I'll tell you how I really
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: feel about that. I think it's great. But I think
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: what people forget about having a website and having social
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: media is that you have the opportunity to promote yourself
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: around the world because they tend to only promote where
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: they are locally, right geographically to their area www. Worldwide.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: You said it, and people forget that so much. There
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: is so much opportunity right at our fingertips that we
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: don't take advantage of. And that's because we've gotten a
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: little relaxed, right, Um, Technology is somewhat dumbed us down right. Okay,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: I remember when I first started my businesses All my
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: numbers are right here and he come right, I didn't
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: have to look at my phone to remember a number,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: that's saying. And that's the point. We don't try to
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: do things because we depend on technology so much. Now,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: how that relates to entrepreneurship is we try to google everything.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: We try to look at Okay, um, I'm gonna look
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: at what this person is doing online, and then we
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: try to apply that to our own business. That can
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: be reckless sometimes because the vision that you have for
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: your business is for you. The vision that that person
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: online has is for them, and what happens is sometimes
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: you lose the clarity in your vision and purpose because
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: you're watching what somebody else is doing. And so what
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: we have to realize is that we need to hire people.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: We need to go to events like a mobile con
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: that help us to concentrate on what we're doing and
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: what we're assigned to do specifically in our businesses, to
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: get those tools, those relationships and resources. And that's important
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: and reason I say that because when I look at
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you first, all focused, you said, hey, Rishan, was almost
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: three decades here just not just I didn't just think
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: of this last night, absolutely okay, because it's not it's
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: not just a passion for you, this is a mission.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: It is Passion doesn't pay the bill and the fashion
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: doesn't pay the bills. In Northern passion convince people to
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: consistently pay the bills. People jump overboard and um and
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: they want to be a part of But who you
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: have to read through those those those those bandwagon people. Yes,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: and then you have a core people that consistently understand
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: this is what I'm doing and this is how I
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: want to work. Absolutely, So tell us about Mogo kan
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: So Mobile Khan. I've been doing conferences for the last
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: ten years to women, but in Atlanta, and I wanted
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: to do something specifically in the fourth quarter because people
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: get excited when it comes to the holidays, they lose
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: focus a little bit. The next thing they know, it's
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: the first of the year. It's January, right, and they're scrambling,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: and by the time they get a real plan in place,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: it's March. We've already lost three months in the year.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: What Mogo Khan is designed designed to do is to
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: give you that plan now, so that you can get
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: your campaigns together, you can get your marketing together, and
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: really understand who your target audience is, because we talk
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: about that a lot. But what happens is when you
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: first start your business and then where you may be
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: three to five years later, maybe a totally different audience,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: and that leton's stopped right there. And what disappoints me
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: is that people I don't want to change because sometimes
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: when your audience changed, there's traditional work and some people
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: don't see that that one part of the plan that's right,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: and so that's key. One of the things that people
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: have always I want to say admired about me is
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: that I'm willing to change gears, and you know how
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: to reinvent yourself. You don't. You don't, that's important, I don't.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I don't. You show me a direction where money can
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: be made. I'm reinventing myself in that direction. And I
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: think that and I and I'm fearless. And so let's
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: talk about fearlessness and fear because you're great point. So
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: let's talk about it because especially I see this with women.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: So I'll tell you the difference in what I see
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: with a man and what I see with the want.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: If there's a job and a man looks at all
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: of the qualification, if he has thirty percent of those qualifications,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: and he has the confidence to go after it, he's
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: gonna do it. But what a woman will do is
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: she'll look at it and she'll say, well, I only
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: have and she'll walk away. And that job may have
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: been perfect for her had she had the confidence to
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: go after. What I tell people is we always hear
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: that fear is false ever disappearing real, right, But fear
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: is also fuel because the fear is what wakes me
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: up every day to do what I do. Fear makes
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: me fearless because I know if I don't get up.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: If I don't show up every day consistently, I'm not
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: gonna get paid right. I'm not gonna be able to
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: get that revenue, get that profit, increasing clients. I'm not
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: gonna be able to attract what I need to attract
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: for myself, my life, and my business if I don't
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: show up. And so what fear does for me is
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I turned it into fuel and it makes me go
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: after those goals. And I think that's what we have
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: to look at. It's okay a little fear. You may
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: have a talk and you gotta get on stage. You
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: feel a little fear, you may have a business. Mean,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: you feel a little fear. Use that for fuel to
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: really get you in there to get because your passion
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: can convince people, but your work is what keeps them right.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: You know, it's really funny that you say that about
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: different There's a difference between men and women when it
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: comes to you know, as a as a guy that
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: has been I feel my ability to um. I want
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: to say b S, but I would say my ability
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: to be able to talk my way into an opportunity,
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: even though I know the resume doesn't match. I don't care.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: And my wife's Chaire was gets mad at me because
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: in a good way, because she knows I don't you
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: know I do it? Why? Why why are we waiting
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: around here? Let's go, let's go. What you done? Hey, Hey,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: let's go, let's go. And my let's go mentality. And
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I've tried to instill that my daughter. You know that,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: you know understand that there are no barriers. They could
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: be self imposed barriers, but there are no barriers. There
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: should be racial barriers, there should be no financial barriers,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that be no gender barriers. And we put these barriers
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: in front of us because of the fact that we
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: feel that there should be a limited It's somehow in
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: our minds we feel because because I was remember when
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: I when I go around successful people, you'll see their
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: kids show up, okay, their kids be on set or athletes.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: They'll bring their kids to the baseball park, and it
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: guess what they're comfortable with being around these environments because
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: guess what they've been told is all right? When you
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: in minority communities, we've never been told anything. We've been
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: told what we cannot do, where we should not go,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: what we cannot say, and who we should represent, who
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: represents our our belief should be successful, which is athletes
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: and entertainers. Okay, scholars, you can't even phantom that well,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: that means that means four years of education, could be
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: a doctor, that's eight years, lawyers, eight years, athletes, Okay,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I can just graduated high school. I can slam dunk.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, you said so much, so much right there.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: So imagine when you talk about in the minority community,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: also talking about being a female in the minority community.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: So now you've got that double whammy going on. And
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: then you couple that with fear. Right. So if every
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: day somebody is telling you what you can't be, and
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: I can remember growing up and I'll tell you I'm
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: a dad is girl. So my dad was an entrepreneur
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: and he would say, listen, if you show up and
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: if you do what you're supposed to do every day,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: which is keep your word, keep your word, that's what's missing.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: You gotta keep your word. You gotta do it with Hegarty. Race, yes,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: can play a small factor, but people don't do business
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: with you because of race. They do it because of
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: the quality of work that you bring. And when you
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: bring quality that cannot be refuted. A racist person will
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: will eat at your restaurant if the food is good. Yes,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: yes they will. But we see it all the time.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: You know. The thing about it is that I know
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: it is this and I R and I know that
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I know them African American male, I know, and I
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: know that there is a salaries that can be tamed different.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: I know their opportunity. But I never allowed it to
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: stop me. I never I I would never give it power.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: I would never give it power to say that I'm
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: not going to be who I can be because I'm
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: an African American. You know, I'm I came from the
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: inner city. Uh. I never wanted to empower that and
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: give it the tool to win over me. And so
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: so when you go to an event like Mogol Kolm,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: I know we we've got another break and I don't
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: want to push you to that break. But just just
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: just what, just what just the experience and why did
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: you started? So the experience is this. We talked about
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: this being a time for women and right now it
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: is and especially women of color because we have grown
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: in the last five years six in entrepreneurship, in creating businesses.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing you talked about the disparity in our community,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: which means we haven't been exposed to having a business coach,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: we haven't been exposed to having platforms like this, right.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: So what mogil Kan does over the three days is
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: help you to understand what you don't know, because sometimes
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: you don't know what you don't know until you get
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: in it. And we bring together over forty experts in
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: different industries and they pour into you. They're gonna answer
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: your questions. We even provide one on one coaching on site.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: So the experience is like no other because it's a
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: community of women who look like me. It's a community
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: of women that don't look like me that give to it. Right.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Because what you have to understand is when you have
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: a vision for something and you're truly wanting to help
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: your community, you've got to reach out to everybody. You
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: got to reach out to everybody. And that's what we do.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: We reach out and we share our message people like
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: companies like Delta Airlines. Well's far ago, We'll be right.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: We're back with more. Dr Felicia, Dr Felicia Phillips and
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Mobile Colm founder. Um wow, I my wife is in town.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna trying to get it to coming to this event.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Um ru Sean McDonald back with more money making conversations. Ready,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: h Sean McDonalds say, ready, you know I'm country today.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: It's something. It's it's like a valve missing in my
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: brain to day. I'm a little bit off. Who guess
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: what I'm hanging in at a superstar pace again, money
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: making conversation. My guests seated next to me as a
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: master business strategist. She's over there trying to go live
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: on Facebook. I don't know how to operate it. You know,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: she over there just clicking buttons and it would not
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: cooperate with me. But just trying to get just trying
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: to Facebook live so bad over here. Guess what I got.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: She's a serial entrepreneur and not an operator of Facebook
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: line that we hired people to do that. Founder mogl Calm.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: The annual conference attracts hundreds of women and it's the
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: premier business experience. Just the third year, right, this is
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: the third year of MGLOM. First of all, you know,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: there's a guy I did the Neighborhood Awards for sixteen
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: straight years, you know, did Atlanta attracted a hundred fifty
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: thousand people, did in Vegas for like ten years, attracting
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: another seventy thousand annually would come to that. So I've
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: and it was three days. So I know when you
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: do something when one day is enough, it's trouble. Lord
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: of pain, it's paint, it's pain, it's pain. So tell
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: us about the first year and it's growth to the
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: third year and exactly. So one of the things in
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the first year when I had the vision for this,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: like I said, I've been doing um small events, some
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: large for women. This time I told you I wanted
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: to do it in the fourth quarter because I want
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: people to have a plan. I want them to have
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: time to get that marketing campaign. So in the first year,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: we brought everybody in. We had a nice crowd, but
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I could instantly see where we could do better. I'm
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: always about the experience. But the beautiful thing that happened
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: was that women were connecting. I saw business coming out
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: of those relationships, and they're still working together. That's a
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: testament because when you come to a conference for three days,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: that's time. That's money that you can't get back, right,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: So there has to be a return of investment on
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: your time. And so when I see them, form the friendships,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: form the business relationships, get those resources and tools. That's help.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: That told me in the first year we've got something, right, Okay, cool.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Let me just tell you a little bit of advice something.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: Let's you're talking is that Okay, I've been doing this
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: a long time. Okay, So, so the fourth quarter is good,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the third quarter be better because of the fact that
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: you have to start pursuing sponsorship in the in the
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: latter half of the third quarter. We do it a
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: year and no, no no, no, I'm talking about you. I'm
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: talking about your attendees. Okay, I know what you do. Yeah,
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, so that fourth quarter I'm just I'm just saying,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: is that if you did it like in the end
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: of September, then you have a whole concept of sponsorship
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: and then they arrived that that that makes sure, that
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: makes sure you're a bit relevant because now you're talking
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: about making money for your attendees. So to your point,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: in the third year, now we're sold out. Good, Okay,
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: So we started you know, it's talking about relationships. That helps, right. Good.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: So we we actually started promoting at the beginning of
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: the year for it, and the left is a funnyest city.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Unlike most people, won't register a lot of times until
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: thirty days, ten days, so you know that, right, So
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: we're walk up, but we're blessed. We're all ready sold out,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: no vendor tables. The Galu sold out all three days.
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: And what we did differently this year is that in
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: the afternoon on the first day, we are having an
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: accelerator on that first day. So what we're doing is
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: separating our startups from our seasoned entrepreneurs, because what I've
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: learned is that as a startup, you're gonna have specific
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: things that you need to know from a foundational perspective,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: whereas the season entrepreneur, maybe you've done well in the business,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: you did everything you needed to do from a start
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: up perspective, you've made some money, you have some clients,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: but the business may have plateaued, and so now you're
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: looking at what do I do next? What's next for me?
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: How do I bring in more clients, how do I
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: increase that revenue? What is going to help me do that?
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: So we split them into different groups and begin to
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: teach them what they need to do. And so this
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: is not so much about what you need and why
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: you need it. We're teaching you how to do it
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: because if you're gonna, like I said, you're gonna take
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: that time, there's got to be a return of investment there, right,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: So we're gonna teach you how to do it. We're
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: gonna bring in experts from companies like Delta Airlines, Wells
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: far Ago. We're gonna have representation from the Greater Women's
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Business Council. They're we're gonna be telling you how you
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: get certified so you can get those big contracts that
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: can change the whole trajectory of your business. But you
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: gotta be there to get the information. Be there. We're
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: at the Double Tree Atlanta Airport, which is at thirty
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: four hundred Northern Berry Drive. We're there, which is right
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: in the city. We have of our audience actually comes
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: from out of state. When we first starting the first year,
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: a lot of our audience was from Atlanta. But now
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: I've noticed that we've evolved. We get Atlanta, uh and
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: pretty much touch. Most of the city's from the southeast
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: come to Mogol Khan. So what I want people to
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: know is this, get ready because for three days, we're
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: gonna pour into you and we're gonna have some fun too.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: We're gonna work hard from eight am to four pm.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: We're gonna give you a little break. We're gonna come
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: back for Moguls after dark. We're gonna have some great entertainment.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: We're gonna bring in some speakers like our former NBA
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: player Earl blankinsh he was in there for twelve years.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: He's gonna come and really share his story about how
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: even at five seven he was able to do some
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: amazing things, played for some great teams. We're gonna bring
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: in Lucinda Cross from Queen Boss BT. She's gonna talk
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: about the big ask twenty one ways to get what
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: you want right. So we have a lot of great things.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: We don't even let him have some fun. We gotta
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: do a little celebrity karaoke for have some celebrity judges.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: And then at the end, we honor women in our
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: community who are giving that hand out and saying, let
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: me help you, let me make some calls for you,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: let me open a door, because this is an area
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: where women really struggle our resources and relationships. What I
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: like about the family that we have at Mogul Khan
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: is they believe in relationships they're making those introductions, making
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: the phone calls. And so this year we're honoring Nikki Gilbert.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: We're honoring UM Jackie McKinley, who is first African American
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: woman over global sales for dal US Southeast. We're honoring
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: um Minyon friends Sis from the Cupcake Collection. I don't
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: know if you know her story. She was about to
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: get her lights cut off the people came about cupcakes,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: and now she is running a ten million dollar empire.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: So what I think people get to see is themselves
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: and the women who are doing these great things, who
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: are seven eight nine figure businesses, right, they're able to
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: see themselves and listen, if she can do it, I
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: can do it too. Now you say that with passion,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: well dressed. How did it start for you? Great question?
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: So remember I told you I was a daddy's girl.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: So my father had his own business, but so did
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: my uncle's and I basically lived under them. And I
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: tell you something that I later realized. They would come
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: together every other week or so and they would talk
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: about what was happening in their businesses. And I remember
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: one particular conversation where my father was complaining about he
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: was in construction so somebody didn't pay him whatever. And
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: my uncle's would come in and they would talk about, okay, clear,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: now you're gonna have to put a lean on this
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: in a man's house or this woman's house. You got.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: But what they had was a mastermind, right, And because
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: I never saw anybody going to a nine to five
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: when I was growing up. Even my great grandmother, she
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: owned real estate, she owned a you the salon, you know,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: she had all types of mindset was in place. It
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: was in place. I knew it eight years old. I
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: was going to own my own business, right, didn't know
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: what it was going to be. And I was actually
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: forced into it at nineteen because I was going to
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: Georgia State full time and I said, this just can't
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: be it. I know it's something better for me. And
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I started a business and by the time I was twenty,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: I was at six figures. But I say that to
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: say this, Sometimes circumstances will push you to the opportunity
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: that is a waiting for you. But if you don't
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: rise to the occasion, that opportunity is gonna pass you by.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Nothing's passing you by, nothing's passing me by. You know
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: me already, Well, I know you from a standpoint, and
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: that's why I was talking about earlier about it. You know,
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: a professional athlete would bring their children, and I remember
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: directors on major set to bring their children. When you
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: see something that becomes normal. So you you were grew
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: up in a lifestyle that this was normal nine to
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: five wasn't didn't see it where my goal coming out
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: of high school, I just want to get up college degree,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: go work for i BM and just get married, you know.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: But then all of a sudden, I realized that's not me.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Yes to you to learn a long time ago and
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: eight and that's that's not what you're reinforcing to everybody
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: that comes to Mobile Car. Absolutely absolutely every woman that
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: enters that door, there's an experience, there's an opportunity, there's
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: a chance at something better to simply change the trajectory
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: of where they are right now. And that happens because
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: that made they made a decision. See, everything that is
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: related to you is a decision. What you wear, what
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: you think about, what you do, it's all based on
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: a decision. When you make the decision that listen, I'm
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: tired of where I am. I've got to do something.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: I've got to do something that is going to take
• 22:52
