Hey there, hi, it's Jacqueline here. Welcome back to another live recording of Just Women Talking Shit, where I am going to shoot the shit and smoke, because that's just how we roll around here. So there's so much tea to catch up on y'all, oh my god. So not too long ago, I announced my pivot, right, I announced the pivot, and then I was just claiming I'm here to shake some shit up, right, and so I made that big announcement. What was it like three, four weeks ago? I don't know, it wasn't that long ago. And so much has changed.
Speaker 1:Have y'all noticed, have you noticed, a shift in my company? I want to share what I have shifted. Nicole, can you hear me? Can you leave me a comment? Let me know that the mic is picking everything up, please, please, I'm gonna light my smoke, but everything shifted because I made just a few solid adjustments. They were energetic adjustments and then very strategic adjustments. So if you're new here, that's good. As long as we have sound, I'm good. And how cool that you're listening to this from work. I love that so much. So what was I saying? Oh fuck, the adjustments that were made were both energetic and really just some psychological adjustments.
Speaker 1:So if you have been around for a minute, then you already know I am a woman of authenticity. I am not afraid to fail forward and fall flat on my face, flat on my ass, and I will even feature it so that you don't feel alone in this crazy journey of one being a human. Being a human is hard. There's no set rule book, no guidebook, right. We're all just fucking up and figuring it out. So if you've been here for a minute, you already know occurs like a seller, right? Not a seller, a sailor. The southern in me is coming out and I just really don't. I don't give a fuck, because I've finally entered this era of life where I truly am ready to do what I call get paid to exist. And getting paid to exist means that you are not hiding who the fuck you are anymore, right? You're not hiding who you are, what you want, what your desires are, what your dreams are, what your goals are, the type of partner you want, the expectation of income that you expect to have every month. I now have an energetic baseline of $10,000 cash months, meaning that I an energetic baseline of $10,000 cash months, meaning that I have a minimum of $10,000 cash at the end of each month, after expenses, after everything, right? So as you grow, as they say, new levels, new devils, right?
Speaker 1:You start to realize that the shifts that you make, they're not even big shifts. That's the thing. They're not even huge shifts. It's just like a series of shifts over time that it had to happen that way. Do you know what I mean? You had to go through that. You had to block yourself in that moment to learn that lesson. You had to lose that job, you had to lose that partner, you had to fuck up and hurt that person.
Speaker 1:Unfortunately, maybe it wasn't intentional, but in life's grand scheme of things, if you're able to pull yourself back and see things like a wide angle right, not so close up and intimate then you're able to see that all of it makes sense. Then you're able to see that all of it makes sense. And so what I realized in making so I've far exceeded $11,000 in cash, but just so that I can put it in what I feel like is just more digestible. And so we can keep up with the common theme of just simplicity, right, I'm averaging about a thousand dollars a day, and so in 11 days I brought in, with my coaching company, $11,000 cash. So sales were 13 something right, and so we got fees and we have all these other things, but I wanted at least $10,000 cash to hit my account and so in 11 days we did $11,000 cash and, to be honest, I've never seen outside of I would say, student, student loans oh my hair Student loans or some kind of loan that you have to get for a vehicle. I've never gotten to play with a lot of money at once. Do you know what I mean? Coming at me quickly, and so I was really scared I wasn't going to be able to hold on to it. But, fun fact, life prepared me. The universe, god and source, and my angels, angels and everybody. They prepared me Because do you know what I experienced right before that?
Speaker 1:Almost an entire year of drought, an entire year of figuring out how to nurture myself, how to let go of things that were actually bringing me money but not bringing me joy. I had to let go of a dependable income. I had to come out to my husband and tell him I'm not perfect and I'm really struggling. And there's a reason that I am retracting and that I'm so depressed, and it's because I'm not aligned and I had to go through this whole journey. This whole past year has been this journey of just radical exception, of who the fuck I am and what I want, and not feeling guilty for that. And it's been a year of drought, a year of doubt, but a year of massive and radical acceptance of nobody's going to get this for me except for me. Right, and I pinpointed through a lot of meditation, a lot of prayer, a lot of just sitting by myself with myself out here, and there's a reason I'm sitting out here for today's podcast episode.
Speaker 1:I want to just show you all real quick where I sit in gratitude almost every single day of my life to work, even when it's cold. I just recently invested in a heated blanket. This makes me happy. I look forward to work when I get to sit out and smoke my weed I'm sorry, my cannabis and because that sounds, I don't know, maybe that won't get me in trouble. I would just better quit talking now. But I sit out here and I partake in my medicine We'll say that my green medicine is what I call it and I exist, sorry about that.
Speaker 1:I exist as I am, as fucked up as I am, as chronically ill as I am, and sorry about that, I exist as I am, as fucked up as I am, as chronically ill as I am, and I take the good days. I don't take them for granted. I take the good days and I fucking run with them. I'm going to be at the gym, I'm going to be out there spreading joy, I'm going to be buying people coffee, I'm going to be opening doors. And so the biggest shift I made after I found out funny story too, by the way, I'm going to tell you all this in a minute but the funniest thing happened whenever it comes to HD, where are my human design buffs at? Where are you? Raise your hand, tell me what your HD is, what is your authority? Tell me all the things, and I'm going to come back and tell you this story.
Speaker 1:So, in this radical acceptance of I'm fucking tired, I'm sick and tired of feeling bad, that I'm sick and tired all the time. I'm sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, yes, but why do I beat myself up over that? Why do I make that a bad thing? And so I really started to lean into my story, hopping on here and sharing my story, sharing the tears, sharing the wisdom, sharing the fuck ups, sharing the behind the scenes. So when I'm in flow, even if I don't feel well physically, mentally sometimes, I'm in flow.
Speaker 1:And so I really took a lot of the pressure off of myself to quit having a schedule, such a tough schedule, that I knew I couldn't abide by. I've retracted and I've pulled back from a lot of coaching calls. I've had to set a lot of boundaries and it's really been tough because I'm afraid that people will think it has something to do with them and that they're too much and that they're just inadequate. But it's not. It's everything to do with me. I'm figuring out that I don't do well with a lot of what feels like restricted structure. So, for instance, I said you know what I'm going to hop on today and I'm behind on my podcast episodes. I had to shift from, but you always get it done. Right, I had to shift from the guilt to, but you always get it done.
Speaker 1:Maybe it's not in the most timely manner, maybe you don't always stick to the strictest of schedules, but when you show up, jacqueline, you really show up. Have you noticed that? And so I started to speak to myself in a way that I wish someone would speak to me, and it's really come down to nurturing that inner child and admitting all that I want and all that I'm worthy of. And so, in having these conversations with myself, it's been a really huge shift, radical acceptance. And so this is your permission slip too.
Speaker 1:If you want a life of wealth and you don't want to have to work super fucking hard for it in the long run, here's your permission slip. Will it take two or three, maybe five years of radical commitment? Absolutely. Will you have to skip out on going out for drinks with your friends when it sounds fun Abso-fucking-lutely? Will it be worth it in the end? Better bet your sweet tits it will be, because while everybody else is still grinding and hustling in their 40s 50s, having mid-life crises, you'll be so grounded in who the fuck you are because you did, you put in the time.
Speaker 1:You saw past the fun nights and you thought fun nights sound fun. Having some drinks sounds fun, I don't know. I also think it'd be really bomb to have a nice house and a nice entertainment area, maybe a really nice back porch that overlooks some water. I also think that'd be pretty fucking cool so I can host those events in a classy, legacy way, right? So it really comes down to the boundaries and sometimes like that's really hard having those conversations and then also allowing yourself to honor how you respond to the boundaries and how you have to take time to yourself to sometimes not respond Right. So the past I would say 30 days, because when I talked to one of my coaches I was on her podcast on Friday, which I'll let you guys know when it comes out. But if you want to check her podcast out, it's called manifest manifest mad money with Yolanda Boyran and she's a. She's a seven figure. That's so cool to say she's a seven figure coach and she does it. I've copied a lot of what she does and it's working for me, as you see, but she does it in a way that are so fully aligned and that is so no bullshit and so magnetic that she gets paid to exist Right, and that is something that I just want to share. I want to continue to share all the behind the scenes, all of the tips and the tricks and the no gatekeeping Right, and it really did start with.
Speaker 1:The biggest shift I made was energetically backing myself up and protecting myself in a way that it feels good to me. I don't want to feel anxious all the time about my business. I already feel anxious with my mental illness, and my mental illness thrives on the worry of things like having to hop on a call, knowing that I don't know what the fuck I'm going to feel like that day. It's so hard too for me to commit sometimes and I would say 95% of the time to an event so simple such as a Zoom call that I know is going to last an hour or two hours. But it's different knowing that maybe I'm planning a retreat a year from now and I can energetically prepare for that. I don't know what that's about. I'm figuring it out. I'm not saying that it's pretty. I'm not saying it's sexy. I'm not saying that it's kind, even for the people that are on the receiving end.
Speaker 1:But I know that I have to keep myself safe and I've got a lot of life that I don't tell you all about because it's not a. I don't want to appear as a big leader. There are some things I have to keep private for my own sanity and figure them out on my own, without any outside opinion or reflection on their how they would solve it, how they would handle it. I need to figure these things out on my own right, and so it comes with a lot of energetic boundaries, and the thing that controls us most right now are these phones. So you'll see that if you text me, you'll see that if you try to call me, if I make contact in your phone, I share with everybody my status.
Speaker 1:I'm on do not disturb most of the time unless I know. I have a client call that I committed to, that I've been able to energetically prepare for, and a lot of it does have to do with and it sounds really fucking shitty. If I'm not getting paid. Sometimes it's not reason enough to hop on a call, because I've got so many demons of my own that I'm flushing out behind the scenes. I've got my debt that I'm figuring out. I've got my debt that I'm figuring out. I've got my health that I'm figuring out. So I literally budget my energy at this point and I think it's been a huge fucking shift because I'm not available to everybody anymore and I want you to take that away from this. In your business, in your life, in your relationships, you are not available to everybody because everybody will not put that same amount of work into you.
Speaker 1:Yes, I'm trying so hard to protect my mental health and being on these phones does not help me. It's so ironic because I've built something so beautiful right here in this nook on this phone Well, not this phone, this is a new phone but with this device that has allowed me to find my identity, to build the connections, yes, but I don't want to be on it all the time. I don't want to be on zoom calls, just I don't, and I have to respect that and have to honor that. So a lot of working with me looks like voice messaging back and forth. It looks like, as soon as you have an idea, send me a text, send me a message. It doesn't mean I'm responding right away and if you get a response out of me quickly, know that I'm available for that right then, but that I might disappear in a few minutes because, well, we've got five kids.
Speaker 1:I've got a husband who works from home who I can't ignore, who needs my attention. I've got my mom and her husband who have cancer, and a sister with mental illness that I worry about every fucking day of my life. I've got family in Hattiesburg don't really know how they're doing. I've got cousins that are in foster care right now that I live for and I just worry about them all the time. I worry about my mom's health, so I can't. There's a way that we're going to build this, and so that is a huge shift that I've made is non-negotiables in my energy, right. Another huge shift that I made and that I think that you can also benefit from if you're building a coaching business, if you're building a creator business. Creator businesses could look like you build courses, you have a podcast, you are a UGC creator or you have an online service provider business where you literally go out and serve.
Speaker 1:Notice that all these things you're giving, you're giving yourself, you're giving your time, you're giving your energy, you're giving your knowledge, your wisdom, your life experience. You are reiterating all of the life lessons that you can't really put a value on, and then you're packaging it and putting a value on, and so you can't exceed that energetic value that you felt you deposited into that bank. If you're not getting more out of it, then you will eventually experience burnout, and so money is just energy, and that's what I teach all my clients is money's energy, and so if your energy is not high, your income will not be high, and what I mean by high energy is not we're jumping around and we're happy all the time. It's energy. Being high is a sense of alignment, it's a higher depth of consciousness. Right, you're, in a way, closer to God. You're listening to the messages. You're respecting your feelings, because your feelings are feedback. You're honoring the boundaries that God has instilled in your heart that make you uneasy. You're not letting people walk all over you anymore. You're not over exceeding your energy and putting yourself on the back burner anymore, and you'll start to notice that whenever you honor that, things start to flow and you start to find your people and all the things and we've went through this over and over again. Your vibe attracts your, but if we don't get grounded in that now, you will not build the six-figure business that is sustainable. I'm not saying you won't build a six-figure business. I'm saying it won't be sustainable. You won't build a seven-figure business. I'm not there yet and I'm not sitting here trying to shit you and tell you I'm there yet. I'm telling you that I know how to make $1,000 at minimum a day. That's what I'm here to tell you. And so if I'm going to live another thousand days, you do the math and that's what being paid to exist means. And so, in order to implement this in your business, so that you can benefit from this very quickly, get really solid in all of that that I just told you.
Speaker 1:And then we're going to talk about the second thing. As I relight because y'all know I talk and then it goes out, and so we've got a fun game going on right now and I think it's just going to be part of the fun Jacqueline vibe of just women talking shit in our lives in general. But we're going to play a game and I want everyone to start counting, because it's so funny, how many times this motherfucker is going to go out. And on the last live I think we counted eight, eight times. Between the time that we started the conversation to the time I ended, I think I had to relay eight times, and so it's kind of a fun game. Oh, how many times? Anyway, taking bets, how many times is it going to be? This is number two, and I just want to say do not drink to this game because you may get fucked up. Number two.
Speaker 1:So number one was non-negotiables in my energy, non-negotiables in my income. I raised my prices tremendously, I was going to raise them and quit thinking. I was given. I kept, I was spent myself on sale, and so many of you are doing this too. High tickets is the way to go, and I kept. I was spent myself on sale and so many of you are doing this too. High ticket's the way to go, and you have low ticket offers that lead them into that. It's the way to go. You can create an experience around anything. You can create a high ticket experience around anything.
Speaker 1:I literally just came up with the best business idea for my brother and I'm going to help him do it. I'm going to pitch it to him and he's not going to help him do it. I'm going to pitch it to him and he's not going to be able to say no, because I'm going to allow him an avenue to get paid to exist by doing his marketing for him. So what I did was, outside of the non-negotiables, outside of saying this is my new energetic minimum, this is my new cash month minimum, I raised my prices and I made it super valuable to raise my prices. So I was selling my things for $47 a pop energetic blueprints, $47 a pop doing extremely extended payment plans for Stripe that I may not get my full invoice back for and so I was taking a lot of risks and I was operating from a place of need, and so I finally figured out a way, through some help, through some guidance, through some trial and error.
Speaker 1:For anybody drinking I'm not trying to get you drunk, so I'm going to try to keep this lit, but I just said you know what, fuck it. And I packaged it in a way that was so irresistible. And here's the thing, I didn't wait to test any of it. I went out there and I just went ahead and talked to people. I already built relationships with People that I already knew trusted me, some that I'd worked with before, some I was working with at the moment, based on just and here's the thing scrappy situations.
Speaker 1:I stopped thinking that I had to have my product suite all worked out, and every conversation that I started with serving, I figured out where are you in life right now, how have you been, how are the kids? And I fucking made real connections. Lots of these people I already have connections with because I show up in a way that people identify with. I'm real as fuck. I'm not going to sit here and sugarcoat it, but I'm also not going to be a dick. I'm human right.
Speaker 1:I know how to treat a person, I know how to read the room, and so I took this skill set, this gift of I'm good at building community. I'm good at making people feel loved. I'm good at people making people feel seen, and I'm good at doing that through the DMs. I'm good at making people feel seen, and I'm good at doing that through the DMs. I'm good at doing that through text. I'm good at doing that through voice messages because I'm introverted as fuck. A lot of people don't know that about me. I'm introverted as fuck. Or on number three, if I can find the lighter.
Speaker 1:So, with having all of the anxiety around phone calls, cold DMs, sales calls, why not build it the way you fucking want to build it and do it in a way that makes you happy, in a way that positions you as somebody they want to be around? And so I've learned to package my energy in a way that I can leverage it so that I'm not drained, because I'm an empath y'all, I'm an empath, I'm a manifesting generator. 3-5, which means I go, go, go, go up here Doesn't mean I can go, go, go, go out here. I get very tired very easily. I've said it over and over again. And I've Sarah, ms Sarah. She has helped me so much with admitting to the chronic illnesses and finally just coming out and saying, yeah, it's not who I am, but it's definitely part of my journey, it's part of my story. It's the whole fucking reason I started all of this. It's the whole reason I wanted to work online. It's the whole reason I started working online. It's the whole reason I started MLMs network marketing companies because I knew I cannot work at a desk job like a normal fucking person.
Speaker 1:With as much as I hurt every single day of my life mentally and physically, I can't do it or I will wind up dead. I will dig myself an early grave. I will put my nail in my own coffin because I do not do well under stress. I do not do well faking it. I do not do well with small talk, with conversations that are just in, in my frank opinion, and, speaking to the depths of my soul, empty as fuck. I'm not here for that. That is a waste of my time. I'm here to talk with you about what the fuck you want out of this life, so that I can help you do that.
Speaker 1:I have figured out. I'm a visionary strategist, but I can't overexert myself, right? And so how are you packaging yourself up to appear to be for everyone when really what you should be doing in your business is going behind the scenes and talking to those people that you notice are rooting for you, that, when you do put something out, vote on the polls, ask questions, open your emails what about those people Everyone's so worried about? Vanity followers? How fast can I grow my account? I fucking did it. I started this account as spiritual support system.
Speaker 1:Spiritual support system was something that I thought that everyone in the fucking world needed and they do, and you do but you don't need it at every phase of your life. It takes a pivotal bone, cold, shaking, gut wrenching moment to know that you need spiritual support system. It is at a certain point in your life where you have surrendered and you've tried everything and you are in radical acceptance of who you are the good, the bad, the ugly before you're ready for spiritual support system. So in my mind, it was for everybody. And again I was trying to speak to everybody, trying to please everybody, right? And that wasn't fully aligned for me. You're not for everybody, so where are you packaging yourself for everybody?
Speaker 1:And so what I did, and what you can do too, is get in the conversations, girl, go have the DMs, slide into the DMs. What you'll find is these people are waiting on you, they're fucking waiting on you to notice them, to say, hey, I see your content, I think you're incredible, I feel like we would be friends in real life, and what you'll find is that they're watching and waiting for the invitation to come into your world. And that's what I found is that I was packaging myself in a way that was asking for permission, when really, deep down, is a coach, if you really know your shit and you own your shit and you show up unapologetically and you're like I'm here to lead a million dollar movement, baby, the rest of them can go fuck themselves. While I laugh myself to the bank and I help people on such an intentional level that changes their lives. That's what my retreat does, that's what my podcast does, that's what being around me does. People will tell you when you get around me, and if you are blessed to be on a phone call with me, it's a moment. Well, I bond with you, it's the soul connection, and I don't give that away freely anymore.
Speaker 1:And so where are you giving yourself away freely and where can we step back and go? Wait, where have I been leaking my energy and where have I been building this in a way that I don't want to build it, in a way that's not sustainable? Because what happens is we overthink the whole thing and we think about the whole legacy and the empire that we want to build, and the biggest thing we do is we get caught in this oh fuck, this scroll of comparison, and it's so big in the coaching industry, so big in the content creation industry. We compare our content. Why isn't it getting saves? Why isn't it getting likes and shares? Come on y'all. Does that really fucking matter?
Speaker 1:No, what matters is is the conversation with that woman who rolled out of bed this morning and wasn't sure how the fuck she was going to make it through the day, and then you wrote her and she said I needed that. Thank you, because she felt alone, because she, too, is looking for what you're looking for, and so the second thing I did, and that you can do too, is to quit packaging yourself for everyone. Go have a conversation with the people that they need you, they really do, and they want to work with you and they want to be in your energy and you go find them and you make it your conviction and your crusade to find them, because the most selfish thing you can do and my post, was it? Touched base on this today the most selfish thing you can do is sit there and ignore the gifts. Some of us have so many fucking gifts and ignore them because we, we were conditioned to think that you're too much, you're too emotional. I cannot tell you. Fucking many times I've heard that you're in your head sounds nice, but you need a real job. To dim your light in a world that is so dark is a true disservice to humanity and to god, the creator in this universe itself.
Speaker 1:It really and it took this past year of problems in my marriage, going through some of the roughest moments of having to really stare at myself and figure out why this wasn't working, why I wasn't making the money, why I wasn't making the impact, having to come to terms with even though I didn't realize it, energetically doing it for the wrong reasons. I didn't realize that until I realized that I hadn't accepted that I was trying to prove some people wrong. I held onto this guilt, this survivor's guilt as well of my daughter's dad not being here, and then just my family. I'm breaking generational curses. Most of my family is dad not being here, and then just my family. I'm breaking generational curses. Most of my family is below the poverty line and lives off of welfare and will forever live off of welfare and never understand what it's like to have this sense of freedom and that they can overcome their odds and that they can have this too.
Speaker 1:And so it came down to this conviction that having conversations is where the conversions are at, but it's also where change happens, and so the shift that I made, and that you can make too, is to go out there and have more conversations, because, at the end of the day, you're in your fucking head about it. And, at the end of the day, if your heart is in the right place and you're genuinely just trying to make a connection with somebody, get to know them. And if the opportunity presents itself for you to be their friend or be their mentor, who is just a few steps ahead of them and can guide them, if that opportunity presents itself, you will know, and they will know, that God will show you the way through your feelings, because your feelings are feedback, through nudges because that's your intuition and through coincidences and signs that are clues that you're on the right track. If you could just trust that and you could go into each conversation with seeing yourself as this beautiful gift from God, just imagine yourself taking this gift to them and then opening it and imagine the outcome of if they work with you. How can you have to present yourself through these conversations as the solution?
Speaker 1:Because I just why else would God, why else would the universe, why else would source? Why would it keep popping up in your reality? Really, stop and think about that else with the universe, why else with source? Why would it keep popping up in your reality? Really, stop and think about that. Why would a feeling on your heart, something that you daydream about in your dream dreams and that you think about and you just keep getting these signs and these signals and all these people and God winks? Why, if it's not meant for you, if there's no lust behind it and you really do have a good pure and you are here to help humanity, how selfish would that be? And I had to start seeing myself as I'm a fucking gift. God works through me, and so I started having the conversations and I only had to sign.
Speaker 1:Oh, by the way, this money that I've made. Oh, by the way, this money that I've made. It was only a portion of it. I've set it up in a way that I will get more in the new year that I've not even accounted for. How cool is that? There's about another 5K that I already know. I have come the new year and so wouldn't it be cool to feel so appreciated in what you do, but also see the impact through the transformations your clients get, like they see for themselves. My community will tell you. Some of them are on here right now. It doesn't take very many.
Speaker 1:You get somebody on your side and you help them, and word of mouth and your energy and you just committing to the end result, releasing the timeline, hopping on you know, episodes, whatever it is that you're trying to build, hopping on and just believing in it before you even see the results. You will get results unless you give up or you're not good at it. I'm just going to be real, okay, is it like American? Like? I'm going to be real, okay, is it like American? Like I'm going to bullshit you. I'm going to be the Simon when it comes to like if good at this, you can and you have the right strategy and you don't fucking give up, you will make money. You. You do things you love and it doesn't have to feel like a strain or like look forward to it, but you have to that that that thing I did. You have to have those boundaries, and that's boundaries with yourself too, babe, that's boundaries.
Speaker 1:I said that today I was gonna actually not work, I was gonna take care of myself, because I've been going five solid days this week and I'm starting to resent my work, and I know that it's not the work, it's actually I'm resenting overexerting myself and I'm resenting how I feel right now. So boundaries. And then two, the conversations with conviction and selling yourself in a way that it's customizable. So I've customized my energy, but the way that I sold to these people was just through conversations, y'all, and I crafted a custom package for them. That does not sound hard, does it? No, it's not hard. And then the third thing I did was let me think of what. The third thing I did was oh, the payment plans. I made it super accessible to work with me in a way that it was affordable, in a monthly way that it wasn't going to stress them out. If, for some reason, it didn't work which is it will work I don't allow myself to work with people that I don't think it will work. Like I'm that person that's going to take your money Fuck that.
Speaker 1:If I wanted to do that, I would just be selling extremely passive courses. I wouldn't be selling high ticket. I wouldn't be involved with my community. You know what I mean. Like there's air. There's a lot of things that you got to work through to make sure that it's gonna work for you, right, but you also have to make a super accessible like where that? So there are so many people that want to work with you but maybe they don't have the credit or the funds up front. So, like again, it goes back to being resourceful.
Speaker 1:So that was the third thing. I got super fucking resourceful right, and they are a lifetime. We got alarms going off. So those were. Those were the three major shifts I made. Uh, everything else is more like. If you think about content, strategy and stuff like that, my content did shift.
Speaker 1:If you want to learn about that, just comment a free course and I'll send you the free course on. It's a three like very steps. It was. It had a lot to do with this. That is in the podcast episode. But if you're listening to the podcast episode on my website or through wherever you get your podcasts just women talking shit, audience members who are listening. I love you so fucking much, just going to say that. But second, you can just check the show notes for the free course. But for anybody watching right now, which I just saw, we got Moonshine Collective on here. We got the Chronic Confessions. I saw some beautiful other souls on here. We are approaching light.
Speaker 1:Number four for anybody keeping count, all y'all do is comment or DM free course. This free course is going to tell you exactly how, or the changes I made in three steps to make $7,650 in 72 hours. It was actually less than 72 hours, but it felt weird to just like pop a random number. So three days is really what it was three days and I was able to took all that cash, and so after that it was $11,000 cash in 11 days, and so it's just going up. I'm at $18,000 right now and it's only been three weeks, and so this course is so fucking good. It is just, and I want you to notice.
Speaker 1:Notice as well the simplicity of how I have this set up. It's a Google doc that feeds you into a loom video screen recording, which I don't even think I show my face, because I'm a total fucking introvert. I'm very choosy with my energy, right. But also at the time I hadn't had a whole like I'd have a new camera and I just got myself a new phone, all these things. I was like no, we're just not, we're not going to stress about that, and let that hold me back, because I don't look good in the camera for what it is it's. The lens is like busted. I don't want people to have to. It would be a distraction. Do you know what I mean? And so I didn't let that hold me back and I put this thing together and I said, fuck it, we're going to fuck up and fail forward and make money while we do it. We're going to learn while we earn.
Speaker 1:And that's what I did is I put together a Google doc with a quick 15 minute training video and you could literally go and replicate this in your own way. Please do not steal my intellectual property by any means. I'll get that to you, babe. You may actually have a DM already, because I have systems set up and I believe it's just send it to you automatically. Just let me know if it doesn't.
Speaker 1:And I say that because I have not tested it on a live stream yet. But I, I, oh God, what was I saying? I don't know. It's just super simple. It'll show you how to do all of that. And again, I'm going to say this before I hop off. You can literally apply what I do to anything.
Speaker 1:Okay, I'm gonna tell you the quick story. I only have 5% my battery and the way this is plugged up. I can't charge it because I've got an attachment for the microphone. What are we on? Number six? See, this is fun. We're going to have some coffee real quick and then I'm going to get back to my story before we hop off. Also, if you live near a Starbucks and you'd like a free Starbucks, let me know I'll send you one. Sorry, starbucks, let me know I'll send you one. Sorry about the call. I didn't expect that. That will for sure get edited out of the episode, but comment Starbucks and I'll send you some Starbucks, because I love Starbucks and I want to share it with everybody. Please excuse us. While we have not a technical difficulty, I really hope I haven't busted any of y'all's ears out with this microphone. You need more Starbucks. I got you One second. Alright. Queen of authenticity Whoops, queen of authenticity is back. I really encourage y'all to be authentic as fuck to itself. No, we're not back. Ok, we're back.
Speaker 1:What I was saying I put this out for a minute was that the free course information that I give you. I'm not dying. I hope we've got a really fucking badass retreat in Sedona, but I have to make it to. Let me live until then, just until checkout. Okay, I live until then. This is wild Y'all. That didn't. That happened. Sorry about that, anyway, okay. So what I was saying was this course Oops, are you afraid of heights?
Speaker 1:This course that I've created, I really want to implement it and, like I'm implemented, I'm doing a case study with my best friend and I'm going to show you all how anybody can do this through with any niche, like like moonshine. Collective I know that you don't have an actual tangible product yet, ok. Collective, I know that you don't have an actual tangible product yet, okay. What most people should be doing is, in order to get paid to exist, still be gathering, gathering and stuff. You know they'll be building towards something. So the free course that you will get to check out it's a 15 minute video to walk you through everything.
Speaker 1:Um, it's just kind of like what it's like to work with me and my program that is coming out. It's an evergreen program, launches January 15th and you get lifetime access to it. It's pretty much coaching with me for the rest of your life and anything that is marketing content getting paid to exist, so you'll always be in the loop of new marketing trends, what's doing well, and access to like all the ongoing live streams that I do twice a week. So this free course is a preview to that. But what I want to share with you as I'm hopping off and I say that a lot y'all notice I'm hopping off and it's like 45. This is called a Southern Goodbye. If you're not familiar with it yet, get used to it, because it's a thing you should see us at holidays by turns into two hours and then your mama will call you on the way home to tell you what. What should I tell you? It's, it's. Get used to it. That's all I'm saying. Get used to it. But it's just a preview into that, and so the thing I wanted to share with y'all is.
Speaker 1:I was talking to my husband earlier and I told him I've been looking out at our backyard which is looking kind of janky. You know, at this point we have not had the money. We have been living in credit card debt. We're about to pay off one of our credit cards that's what I'm working towards and that one's got fucking just $16,000 on it alone. And then I'm getting like I've caught up in my business stuff, all these things that I'm doing and you know, help people that I love behind the scenes send gifts, it's the holiday giving season, right, and all these things.
Speaker 1:But I was, I was talking to him. I was like now, once we get caught up on some things, I know and I've noticed that since I've started making money, he doesn't object to anything. I say Now that he's seen the physical evidence, like in bank account, his stress levels are down, just everything is shifting everything. So it's it's a testament that money does make life a lot easier, right, and so, because that's what I figured out and I think I was feeding into way earlier on in this episode was that I figured out that I was letting money control my happiness If it wasn't in the account. If my account was red, I let that dictate my external happiness, and a lot of us do that within our businesses, within our companies, within our lives, within our relationships.
Speaker 1:If we don't see the deposits whether that be financial deposits, whether that be energy deposits, love deposits, health deposits, fitness deposits, like immediate we tend to give up. But that's the thing is is have to believe it before you see it. This whole I'll believe it when I see it is the exact reason you're not seeing it, and I always use this as an example and we're going to get back to my story about the whole business thing, because I got to be quick. It's about to. I don't want it to end, but think.
Speaker 1:The example that always comes to mind for me is you think about great movement leaders like Martin Luther King, jr, gandhi Throw some out there for me y'all and just think about the trials, the tribulations. I mean the fucking lack of respect and the degradation. People were inhumane to them and they didn't fucking give up on their dream. They did not give up on the crusade, the mission, because when you have a vision and when you finally accept that, you know what? Some of us might be chosen. Some of us are natural born leaders and it's okay. It's okay to take pride in that and to fulfill that prophecy in this lifetime. Because I bet you were a worker bee back when, I mean, I was a prostitute at least three times in my past lives. That was a weird ass dream y'all. But what I'm saying is that in this lifetime, yes, exactly, it's to want to lead a movement and to fulfill your prophecy. Yes, exactly Like it's it's to want to lead a movement and to fulfill your prophecy. All right, so the free course.
Speaker 1:I was talking to my husband and I was looking around and I was like I'm ready to when, when it dries out out here, cause it's been raining a lot when it dries out, I'm going to take a garbage bag and I'm going to get rid of all this shit and the kids are going to freak out, but we're going to replace it with new, good quality stuff. And I told her. I said, mother Teresa, yes, ma'am, but where would we be without these great people? I'm not saying you're the next Jesus. I'm not saying you have to be sacrilegious. I'm not saying you have to be a dick to get there. I'm saying that some of us are meant to change the world and it is responsibility to do that. Okay, but I was thinking about it and I was like I want to.
Speaker 1:In doing this, I want to utilize someone that is really good at what they do. That needs things like the through, like monetary right, because that gives us confidence when we do something and we get paid for it. It gives you confidence and so that's why a lot of business owners are very, very and pivot, re-pivot, do all these things because they're not truly owning their zones of genius and then charging well, what they're worth for it, right. And when we do raise our prices and do things like that and we don't see immediate feedback through people saying you know what I'm, work with you or invoice me, or then you tend to give up.
Speaker 1:But like I'm thinking, like I know what I want to do, I want my brother to build the boys a miniature house in our backyard, big for them but little on like adults, right, I want my brother. How, how beautiful of an experience is that going to be? I said and I want because I know he's going to do it and he will do it. He would do it for free if I asked him to. But there's no fucking way. I want him to see what he is capable of and what people will pay him for, and I want to pay him a lot of money I want to pay him like $5,000. And I want to record the process. I want him to do the blueprints with my children and I want to document that because one it's going to be something. First off, he's my brother and this is just beautiful fucking memories, right. But second, my kid's going to look back on that. Third, they're part of that process and that, right, there, is going to be the most memorable part that they take with them being part of that, and then the memories they build while building it, but the memories they build inside of it. To be part of that and then to be able to go back and look at that.
Speaker 1:And that's when it hit me. I can literally take any passion, I can take any skill set and I can turn it into high ticket. So that is a high ticket service for my brother, right? Do you see how we can get paid to exist? You just got to get in front of the right people that want your stuff. So I wanted to share that with you because I feel like a lot of people aren't sure, can I benefit from your services? Absolutely you can, if you've got drive, determination. You are a skill set that I can teach you to market in demand and you own that shit and you're actually good at it and you get results. Absolutely, you can get paid to exist. I can teach you to have money. You can have one stream of income that's bringing you $10,000. Another stream that's bringing you $20,000. Babe, you are limitless. Limitless, so fun.
Speaker 1:I love what I do so much and my client, sarah, has helped me with that. I'm just realizing like what genius I am and what you know to it is the fact that I'm a chronic illness baby and I've had so much time to think that I've not, I've not known what I want to be when I grow up and so I've tried a million jobs that have been around people that I don't know how they got there. But actually now I do because they're just committed and stayed there long enough and, I guess, had some good ideas and didn't give up, whereas I opted out because I can't stay in an environment for very long and put up with bullshit and nonsense and sign my life away At the hope of maybe one day I'll get to travel. I mean, babies know like no. We don't want to wait someday. We want to feel like normal people. We want to do this shit now. I love you all so much.
Speaker 1:I wish that all these comments would stay. I don't think they do, though. All right, thank you so much for listening to me. I think you're all amazing. If you need me, if you want to chat, my inbox is open. I'm so here for you. I'm so here for your success. I think you're fucking amazing and I cannot wait to help you get paid, to exist in whatever capacity feels good for you.
Speaker 1:Sometimes we do have to pivot Absolutely. I'm so grateful for all the pivots, because they led right back to where I was supposed to be. It all led back to my zone of genius. I had to try it all out. You've got to try it all out before you figure out what's for you Fell forward. Don't be afraid to fuck it up y'all. In fact, fuck it up faster. Can I get comments? I'm going to fuck it up faster. That should be like your new motto let's fuck it up faster because that's the quickest way to succeed.

Y'all Tired of playing small.
