00:00:37,300 --> 00:00:39,233

I'm excited to share with your audience

00:00:39,966 --> 00:00:41,633

well how did your journey begin

00:00:41,633 --> 00:00:43,733

how did you and your partner come up with this business

00:00:43,733 --> 00:00:45,766

and yes tell us a little bit about your

00:00:45,766 --> 00:00:48,066

just your experience and how it all came together

00:00:48,633 --> 00:00:49,566

yeah so

00:00:49,566 --> 00:00:50,966

million Dollar Mom Society

00:00:50,966 --> 00:00:52,733

started out as a Facebook group

00:00:52,733 --> 00:00:56,133

and I started my journey into entrepreneurship in 2020

00:00:56,133 --> 00:00:58,400

when I had just given birth to my twins

00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,233

and things were weird during Covid

00:01:00,233 --> 00:01:02,766

and I I had a great steady job at the time

00:01:02,766 --> 00:01:05,400

but didn't know if we would ever leave the house again

00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,833

so I figured

00:01:06,833 --> 00:01:10,066

I would learn how to make some money from home

00:01:10,133 --> 00:01:12,233

so I kind of dove into digital marketing

00:01:12,233 --> 00:01:13,800

and a bunch of different things

00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,433

nothing really tangible

00:01:15,433 --> 00:01:18,233

but I did a lot of side hustle kind of stuff

00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:21,000

and then in: 2022

00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,000

my husband and I moved from New Jersey to Florida

00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,100

we started a business in real estate investing

00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:28,566

I did great with that

00:01:28,566 --> 00:01:30,933

but even though we were making great money from it

00:01:30,933 --> 00:01:32,833

it's like my cup wasn't being filled

00:01:33,033 --> 00:01:35,700

and the same thing was happening in my job

00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:37,700

I had been in a male dominated industry

00:01:37,700 --> 00:01:42,033

for over 10 years and it just wasn't serving me anymore

00:01:42,033 --> 00:01:45,033

and at that time my daughter had come to me and said

00:01:45,033 --> 00:01:47,066

Mommy how come you don't love us anymore

00:01:47,333 --> 00:01:47,900

and I was like oh

00:01:47,900 --> 00:01:48,733

my goodness of course

00:01:48,733 --> 00:01:50,233

this is not true but to her

00:01:50,233 --> 00:01:51,833

it was and

00:01:51,833 --> 00:01:52,633

you know

00:01:52,633 --> 00:01:56,433

I was putting in 18 hour days trying to balance the job

00:01:56,433 --> 00:01:57,600

the business the family

00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,666

all the things women have to do

00:02:00,100 --> 00:02:00,833

and I was like well

00:02:00,833 --> 00:02:03,333

something has to go I'll be damned if it's my business

00:02:03,733 --> 00:02:06,000

so I quit my six figure job

00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,833

and shortly thereafter I met my business partner online

00:02:09,833 --> 00:02:11,633

neither one of us were looking for a partner

00:02:11,633 --> 00:02:13,933

we were just kind of following along with each other

00:02:14,100 --> 00:02:15,400

and our company

00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,033

was founded on the principle of collaboration

00:02:18,033 --> 00:02:18,900

over competition

00:02:18,900 --> 00:02:22,300

so we were both serving moms in the business world

00:02:22,500 --> 00:02:23,933

and we decided to come together

00:02:23,933 --> 00:02:25,800

and build an absolute empire

00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,166

and that is what we did

00:02:27,166 --> 00:02:29,633

and that's how a million Dollar Mom Society was born

00:02:29,633 --> 00:02:34,633

and we grew our Facebook group from 200 people to

00:02:34,633 --> 00:02:37,733

I think a year later we're at a little over 16,000

00:02:38,333 --> 00:02:40,133

that's amazing out of curiosity

00:02:40,133 --> 00:02:41,600

what part of Florida are you in

00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:45,100

I am in the Orlando area I'm in Sarasota

00:02:45,100 --> 00:02:46,333

how nice yeah

00:02:46,333 --> 00:02:48,766

nice to not have winters Summer's a little crazy hot

00:02:48,766 --> 00:02:50,500

but love not having winters

00:02:50,500 --> 00:02:53,933

I'll take August in Florida over February in New Jersey

00:02:53,933 --> 00:02:55,500

every day yes

00:02:55,500 --> 00:02:56,566

yes well

00:02:56,566 --> 00:02:58,400

I love that so did you and your husband

00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,900

when you started your real estate investing business

00:03:01,233 --> 00:03:02,833

you still had your job then

00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:04,033

yes I did

00:03:04,033 --> 00:03:05,533

wow that's a lot

00:03:05,533 --> 00:03:07,833

real estate investing is very time consuming

00:03:07,933 --> 00:03:09,500

it was yes

00:03:09,500 --> 00:03:11,100

so because Genie and I are partners

00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:12,600

we always love to hear about how partnerships

00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,033

come together so I

00:03:14,033 --> 00:03:16,000

I think it's so cool that you guys met online

00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,366

do you meet much in person

00:03:17,366 --> 00:03:19,600

because I'm in Florida and Genie is in Virginia

00:03:19,633 --> 00:03:21,933

but we knew each other when I was in Virginia

00:03:21,933 --> 00:03:23,800

so how has that worked out for you guys

00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:24,900

getting to know each other online

00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:26,300

and then becoming business partners

100

00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:27,700

yeah so

101

00:03:27,700 --> 00:03:30,166

we actually were in business for quite a bit of time

102

00:03:30,166 --> 00:03:31,600

before we ever met in person

103

00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,400

and we were very successful

104

00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,200

we hit six figures in six months

105

00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,766

and that was before we ever even met in person

106

00:03:37,766 --> 00:03:41,133

she lives in LA so we see each other a handful of time

107

00:03:41,133 --> 00:03:43,933

the very first time we met is an interesting story

108

00:03:43,933 --> 00:03:46,433

we're actually in Miami filming for our TV show

109

00:03:46,433 --> 00:03:48,133

and the directors were like

110

00:03:48,133 --> 00:03:50,800

you just met yesterday that's not possible

111

00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,966

the synergy it's just amazing

112

00:03:52,966 --> 00:03:55,000

and we have this dynamic between us

113

00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,500

it was a very a divine alignment really

114

00:03:57,500 --> 00:04:00,166

we're both very blessed wow

115

00:04:00,166 --> 00:04:01,833

and you also have a TV show

116

00:04:01,933 --> 00:04:03,700

we do we do

117

00:04:03,733 --> 00:04:05,633

okay and do you guys always film it in Miami

118

00:04:05,633 --> 00:04:07,100

or do you film it from home now or

119

00:04:07,100 --> 00:04:09,800

so the show that we filmed in Miami is called

120

00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,400

Legacy Makers we have an episode on that show

121

00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,333

and that is out on Amazon Prime

122

00:04:15,333 --> 00:04:18,000

and Apple TV and a few other platforms

123

00:04:18,233 --> 00:04:21,433

and the producers of that show loved our mission

124

00:04:21,433 --> 00:04:24,566

and our vision and what we do to help moms in business

125

00:04:24,566 --> 00:04:25,833

and they reached out to us

126

00:04:25,833 --> 00:04:27,800

and offered our own docu series

127

00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,800

so that is called the Million Dollar Room

128

00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,433

and what we are doing is hosting a very luxurious

129

00:04:34,433 --> 00:04:35,233

in person

130

00:04:35,233 --> 00:04:38,466

mastermind style retreat in Laguna Beach in November

131

00:04:38,633 --> 00:04:39,833

and the whole thing's gonna be

132

00:04:39,833 --> 00:04:43,133

filmed for our docu series

133

00:04:43,133 --> 00:04:45,100

so we're really excited about that

134

00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,200

congratulations that is absolutely amazing

135

00:04:48,333 --> 00:04:49,366

thank you great synergy

136

00:04:49,366 --> 00:04:52,133

you're bringing all these great opportunities to you

137

00:04:52,166 --> 00:04:53,733

that's awesome well

138

00:04:53,733 --> 00:04:56,366

tell us how do you help the moms that you work with

139

00:04:56,366 --> 00:04:59,933

so we're really visibility strategist primarily

140

00:04:59,933 --> 00:05:04,400

but we also have a very holistic approach to success

141

00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,166

because it's not just how do I make money online

142

00:05:07,166 --> 00:05:09,533

it's mindset and spirituality

143

00:05:09,533 --> 00:05:11,400

and health and wellness and everything like that

144

00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,233

so in our coaching programs

145

00:05:13,233 --> 00:05:15,700

we help women through all pillars

146

00:05:15,700 --> 00:05:18,266

of what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur

147

00:05:18,433 --> 00:05:20,733

but our bread and butter is really No. 1

148

00:05:20,733 --> 00:05:23,133

the lead generation because we did start out with

149

00:05:23,133 --> 00:05:25,833

our first offer ever was growing Facebook groups

150

00:05:25,833 --> 00:05:27,900

and grew and monetized them

151

00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:30,633

and then we also help with getting visible

152

00:05:30,633 --> 00:05:35,600

so I I like to say going from unseen to unforgettable

153

00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,400

and that's really what we did in the past 12 months

154

00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,100

to go from just being a startup business

155

00:05:41,100 --> 00:05:43,966

to women online with a couple of side hustles

156

00:05:43,966 --> 00:05:46,700

to now doing consistent six figure months

157

00:05:47,700 --> 00:05:49,666

that's fantastic I love that

158

00:05:49,766 --> 00:05:51,966

now are you also helping them for visibility

159

00:05:51,966 --> 00:05:53,566

create Facebook groups is that your

160

00:05:53,566 --> 00:05:54,600

your strategy

161

00:05:54,866 --> 00:05:57,733

so Facebook Groups is one of the strategies

162

00:05:57,733 --> 00:05:59,200

so we do help them with that

163

00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,100

we also have a magazine that comes out every quarter

164

00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:04,766

so they're submitting articles and ads

165

00:06:04,766 --> 00:06:06,133

inside of the magazine

166

00:06:06,233 --> 00:06:09,200

we have books that we publish that are anthology books

167

00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:10,900

where they're contributing chapters

168

00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:12,933

and then we're marketing them very heavily

169

00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,000

and then we also have our podcast

170

00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,833

so we we have women guest on our podcast

171

00:06:18,833 --> 00:06:20,666

and that's another way to get visible

172

00:06:20,766 --> 00:06:21,633

and then of course

173

00:06:21,633 --> 00:06:24,233

the big one is the live event in November

174

00:06:24,233 --> 00:06:26,600

where they will be visible on TV

175

00:06:27,533 --> 00:06:29,833

amazing that is absolutely awesome

176

00:06:29,933 --> 00:06:31,333

and I love your mission like to

177

00:06:31,333 --> 00:06:32,900

to help them holistically

178

00:06:32,900 --> 00:06:34,733

to be there for everything that they

179

00:06:34,833 --> 00:06:35,933

because you don't think about it

180

00:06:35,933 --> 00:06:39,066

but as a business owner if you get up feeling crappy

181

00:06:39,333 --> 00:06:41,000

your day is not gonna go well

182

00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,733

or if you're stressed out about balancing family

183

00:06:43,733 --> 00:06:44,833

and everything else so

184

00:06:44,833 --> 00:06:46,133

I think it's great that you're looking at that

185

00:06:46,133 --> 00:06:48,666

holistically yes amazing

186

00:06:49,066 --> 00:06:49,766

well let's see here

187

00:06:49,766 --> 00:06:51,966

what were some of the things we were gonna talk about

188

00:06:51,966 --> 00:06:53,800

we're gonna talk about how people

189

00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,733

entrepreneurs can get clear on their story

190

00:06:56,833 --> 00:06:59,033

can feel like they're putting out there

191

00:06:59,033 --> 00:07:01,133

marketing that's in their own voice

192

00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,500

and how can they find what some might say is

193

00:07:04,500 --> 00:07:06,233

is what's unique about them

194

00:07:06,233 --> 00:07:09,300

yeah so your unique value proposition

195

00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:11,300

of course is super important

196

00:07:11,300 --> 00:07:12,800

and I think that most women

197

00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,533

overlook the power of their story

198

00:07:14,533 --> 00:07:16,400

because they think it has to be like

199

00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,133

very dramatic or picture perfect

200

00:07:19,133 --> 00:07:20,333

and it it just doesn't

201

00:07:20,333 --> 00:07:22,966

it has to be real and it has to be yours

202

00:07:22,966 --> 00:07:23,733

like for example

203

00:07:23,733 --> 00:07:26,033

I've overcome a lot of trauma in my life

204

00:07:26,033 --> 00:07:27,900

it's one of the things that LED me to have this

205

00:07:27,900 --> 00:07:28,900

spiritual awakening

206

00:07:28,900 --> 00:07:31,666

when I was deciding to quit my job and help women

207

00:07:31,833 --> 00:07:34,433

I had no idea how I was going to do that

208

00:07:34,433 --> 00:07:35,533

or what I was going to do

209

00:07:35,533 --> 00:07:37,966

but I knew what my y was so

210

00:07:37,966 --> 00:07:41,833

we always talk about focusing on the y and not the how

211

00:07:41,933 --> 00:07:44,600

and we like to say the how is none of our business

212

00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,200

because when it's mission driven

213

00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,933

the universe will support it

214

00:07:49,133 --> 00:07:50,400

so and of course

215

00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,500

we back it with business strategy as well

216

00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:54,933

it's not we're not just waving fairy dust here

217

00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,600

but just showing up authentically online

218

00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:01,633

and I think clarity on your voice and in your values

219

00:08:01,633 --> 00:08:02,400

like for example

220

00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,000

my core values are faith family health

221

00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,033

wealth and freedom

222

00:08:06,300 --> 00:08:10,100

every decision I make in my life is surrounded

223

00:08:10,233 --> 00:08:12,566

around that and based by those values

224

00:08:12,566 --> 00:08:14,366

and if it's out of alignment

225

00:08:14,366 --> 00:08:16,300

then I just want no parts of it

226

00:08:16,466 --> 00:08:19,333

and it's really all about how your why

227

00:08:19,333 --> 00:08:22,000

has helped shape your business and your brand

228

00:08:22,300 --> 00:08:25,800

I actually just had a a client call with a woman who

229

00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,900

her mission is to help moms that are grieving

230

00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:32,233

because she had lost a child very young

231

00:08:32,300 --> 00:08:34,200

and that's her mission

232

00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,000

and that's part of her storytelling

233

00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,633

and that's what she's sharing with her community

234

00:08:38,633 --> 00:08:40,933

so I think it's really important to

235

00:08:40,933 --> 00:08:44,433

just show up and talk about your why

236

00:08:44,433 --> 00:08:45,933

most of the time yeah

237

00:08:45,933 --> 00:08:46,733

I love that because it

238

00:08:46,733 --> 00:08:48,933

always seems like people are talking about their rags

239

00:08:48,933 --> 00:08:50,266

to riches story

240

00:08:50,333 --> 00:08:52,933

and like you said it doesn't always have to be that way

241

00:08:52,933 --> 00:08:55,133

it can be something a little calmer

242

00:08:55,133 --> 00:08:57,233

and something that feels more real

243

00:08:57,233 --> 00:08:59,333

and one of our clients always says

244

00:08:59,333 --> 00:09:01,666

clarity equals velocity

245

00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:05,000

so the clearer you can get on your goals

246

00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:05,933

your pillars

247

00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,800

the faster you can you can get to where you wanna go

248

00:09:09,166 --> 00:09:13,033

absolutely and I think that confidence is important too

249

00:09:13,033 --> 00:09:15,033

and confidence comes from clarity

250

00:09:15,033 --> 00:09:18,066

and not like credentials and some of the other things

251

00:09:18,333 --> 00:09:20,300

that we might think is important

252

00:09:20,300 --> 00:09:22,433

I had somebody a client telling me like

253

00:09:22,433 --> 00:09:25,333

I have to get a certification before I can go do this

254

00:09:25,333 --> 00:09:27,233

and I'm like why you already have experience in it

255

00:09:27,233 --> 00:09:29,266

you don't need to be certified to help somebody

256

00:09:29,666 --> 00:09:30,166

she's like oh

257

00:09:30,166 --> 00:09:31,433

I never thought of it that way

258

00:09:31,433 --> 00:09:33,633

so yeah a lot of the certification programs

259

00:09:33,633 --> 00:09:37,566

I think puts them in a box that doesn't feel like them

260

00:09:37,566 --> 00:09:39,133

and then that that actually delays

261

00:09:39,133 --> 00:09:40,633

their growth in starting their business

262

00:09:40,633 --> 00:09:43,300

because again they're trying to follow some framework

263

00:09:43,300 --> 00:09:44,700

that may not have anything

264

00:09:44,700 --> 00:09:46,733

to do with their experience in that field

265

00:09:46,733 --> 00:09:48,000

and how they've delivered

266

00:09:48,233 --> 00:09:49,633

results to people in the past

267

00:09:49,633 --> 00:09:51,900

so sometimes I think that can actually be detrimental

268

00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:53,500

I agree yeah

269

00:09:53,500 --> 00:09:54,966

so let's talk a little bit about what

270

00:09:54,966 --> 00:09:56,200

what kind of platforms

271

00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,400

do you talk about in your groups

272

00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,600

and with your clients to help them

273

00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,600

grow and get more visible and more credibility

274

00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:08,166

so less is more and getting seen in the right places

275

00:10:08,166 --> 00:10:11,400

is much more important than getting seen everywhere

276

00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,433

so I'll just give you an example

277

00:10:13,433 --> 00:10:14,933

like I went to an event

278

00:10:14,933 --> 00:10:16,700

we're very intentional about the rooms

279

00:10:16,700 --> 00:10:17,766

that we put ourselves in

280

00:10:17,766 --> 00:10:19,966

whether that's online or in person

281

00:10:19,966 --> 00:10:21,300

we do a lot of live events

282

00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:23,266

we do a lot of virtual events

283

00:10:23,333 --> 00:10:24,966

and we're we're just very cognizant of

284

00:10:24,966 --> 00:10:26,133

of which ones they are

285

00:10:26,133 --> 00:10:28,600

because even though it might be a big

286

00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,100

large event are your people there

287

00:10:31,100 --> 00:10:32,800

that's what you really have to find out

288

00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,033

and I attended an event in April

289

00:10:35,033 --> 00:10:37,100

and that event alone

290

00:10:37,300 --> 00:10:40,633

we converted like six figures from that alone

291

00:10:40,633 --> 00:10:43,233

and it was because we were in the right room

292

00:10:43,233 --> 00:10:46,133

so getting in the right room is so critical

293

00:10:46,133 --> 00:10:49,400

I can't stress it enough getting yourself on podcasts

294

00:10:49,566 --> 00:10:51,800

pitching yourself to magazines

295

00:10:51,833 --> 00:10:54,100

the TV show is something a little extra

296

00:10:54,100 --> 00:10:56,500

that's not necessarily for everyone

297

00:10:56,500 --> 00:10:57,833

but the reach

298

00:10:57,833 --> 00:11:01,233

of this TV show is going to be a billion people

299

00:11:01,233 --> 00:11:04,233

so that just helps us expand our reach

300

00:11:04,233 --> 00:11:05,833

for our mission in the world

301

00:11:05,866 --> 00:11:09,033

and getting visible is really it

302

00:11:09,033 --> 00:11:11,566

if nobody knows who you are

303

00:11:11,566 --> 00:11:13,700

nobody can buy what you have to offer

304

00:11:13,733 --> 00:11:14,600

yeah it's so true

305

00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:16,300

and I think sometimes as women

306

00:11:16,300 --> 00:11:18,800

we hold ourselves back because we don't know

307

00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:20,433

if we have the right things to say

308

00:11:20,433 --> 00:11:22,166

or do we look the right way

309

00:11:22,166 --> 00:11:23,733

I know when we're helping our clients

310

00:11:23,733 --> 00:11:25,933

either start a YouTube channel or a podcast

311

00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,333

that's always a concern

312

00:11:27,333 --> 00:11:30,066

who am I to think that I can do this

313

00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,133

and so

314

00:11:31,133 --> 00:11:33,500

I'm sure you coach your clients a lot around the fear

315

00:11:33,500 --> 00:11:36,333

of imposter syndrome and things like that as well

316

00:11:36,333 --> 00:11:37,733

oh yes yeah

317

00:11:37,733 --> 00:11:40,100

everybody goes through it at some point and another

318

00:11:40,100 --> 00:11:41,600

and every time we level up

319

00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:44,000

we continue to go through it at at a new level

320

00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,766

so it's important to talk about

321

00:11:46,766 --> 00:11:48,700

how we can work through that

322

00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,433

and it's an important distinction between

323

00:11:51,433 --> 00:11:53,666

feeling like you're in flow

324

00:11:53,900 --> 00:11:56,500

versus something that you're scared of

325

00:11:56,900 --> 00:11:59,333

cause sometimes it's hard to distinguish those two

326

00:12:00,133 --> 00:12:01,600

it is for me personally

327

00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,333

I am very much a person that needs to be in flow state

328

00:12:05,333 --> 00:12:09,000

in order to just function properly and be happy

329

00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,833

like at around this time

330

00:12:10,833 --> 00:12:12,300

when I had this spiritual awakening

331

00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:13,500

I just made this decision

332

00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:16,166

that I was only gonna do things that make me happy

333

00:12:16,166 --> 00:12:19,400

and so having a job of course was not one of them haha

334

00:12:19,633 --> 00:12:20,966

but yeah it's like

335

00:12:20,966 --> 00:12:21,966

when you're forcing

336

00:12:21,966 --> 00:12:25,000

and you're constantly pushing and going against

337

00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:25,833

the grain

338

00:12:25,966 --> 00:12:28,333

often times we have been there in our business

339

00:12:28,333 --> 00:12:30,100

and we have to like take a step back

340

00:12:30,100 --> 00:12:32,700

and sometimes we have to slow down to speed up and say

341

00:12:32,700 --> 00:12:33,200

like okay

342

00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,200

this is not working what actually feels good to us

343

00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,433

so that we can now open the floodgates

344

00:12:38,433 --> 00:12:41,633

and it it's great to have a partner to do that with

345

00:12:41,633 --> 00:12:43,466

yep wholeheartedly agree

346

00:12:43,533 --> 00:12:44,533

yeah and it's really funny

347

00:12:44,533 --> 00:12:47,033

because when Jeannie and I started our first podcast

348

00:12:47,333 --> 00:12:48,600

you know you're starting a podcast

349

00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:49,100

you're like okay

350

00:12:49,100 --> 00:12:50,733

well you kind of see how it goes right

351

00:12:50,766 --> 00:12:52,200

we fell in love with it I'm like

352

00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,433

I'm so excited that we get to talk to people like you

353

00:12:55,433 --> 00:12:57,600

because every time we do a podcast interview

354

00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:58,933

we learn so many things

355

00:12:58,933 --> 00:13:01,400

we come away with a new collaboration partner

356

00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,000

we come away with a new referral partner

357

00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,600

or somebody who becomes a client of ours

358

00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:05,933

or we become a client of theirs

359

00:13:05,933 --> 00:13:08,333

or we find out we're going to be at the same event soon

360

00:13:08,333 --> 00:13:09,666

and we get to meet in person

361

00:13:09,733 --> 00:13:10,500

so I think it's

362

00:13:10,500 --> 00:13:13,433

when you are doing something that feels really good

363

00:13:13,433 --> 00:13:15,366

and you're excited to get up and do

364

00:13:15,366 --> 00:13:15,533

365

00:13:15,533 --> 00:13:18,433

does make a very big difference in how your day goes

366

00:13:18,633 --> 00:13:19,700

oh 100%

367

00:13:19,700 --> 00:13:20,566

I agree

368

00:13:20,566 --> 00:13:23,600

podcasting is one of the best ways to get yourself

369

00:13:23,700 --> 00:13:26,466

not only visible not only clients

370

00:13:26,566 --> 00:13:29,200

but just building relationships

371

00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,100

because that's what it's really all about

372

00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:33,200

and after Covid like

373

00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,500

women have opportunities to have businesses

374

00:13:35,500 --> 00:13:36,600

all over the world

375

00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,333

doing business with people from different countries

376

00:13:39,333 --> 00:13:42,033

and zoom has given us that opportunity

377

00:13:42,033 --> 00:13:44,833

so while there's nothing like a face to face

378

00:13:44,833 --> 00:13:48,166

in person live event zoom is the very next best thing

379

00:13:48,166 --> 00:13:49,033

and when you get to have a

380

00:13:49,033 --> 00:13:50,900

warm conversation with somebody

381

00:13:51,100 --> 00:13:53,366

there's nothing like it so yeah

382

00:13:53,366 --> 00:13:55,000

I totally agree in fact

383

00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,433

I just had a podcast recording before this

384

00:13:57,433 --> 00:14:00,100

and she's English but she was in Thailand

385

00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,133

and so it's 10 o'clock at night there

386

00:14:02,133 --> 00:14:03,933

it's 11 o'clock in the morning here

387

00:14:03,933 --> 00:14:07,433

and 5 six years ago that wouldn't have happened

388

00:14:07,433 --> 00:14:09,633

so I love it it's beautiful

389

00:14:10,166 --> 00:14:10,966

yeah it's funny

390

00:14:10,966 --> 00:14:12,166

you're in Orlando so hopefully

391

00:14:12,166 --> 00:14:13,733

maybe I'll see you at podcast

392

00:14:13,733 --> 00:14:15,933

if you think that your people are in that room

393

00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:16,833

and yes

394

00:14:16,833 --> 00:14:19,466

so last year I ended up meeting one of our clients

395

00:14:19,766 --> 00:14:21,733

she had been a client for four or five years

396

00:14:21,733 --> 00:14:23,033

and we knew her really well

397

00:14:23,033 --> 00:14:24,333

became friends with her

398

00:14:24,366 --> 00:14:26,333

and it was so crazy meeting her in person

399

00:14:26,333 --> 00:14:26,800

here I am like

400

00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:27,400

I've never met her

401

00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,666

and I'm picking her up at the airport in Orlando

402

00:14:29,766 --> 00:14:31,133

but it didn't feel any different

403

00:14:31,133 --> 00:14:32,233

like it didn't feel any different than

404

00:14:32,233 --> 00:14:34,133

as if I were picking up Genie at the airport

405

00:14:34,133 --> 00:14:36,033

because you do people so well

406

00:14:36,100 --> 00:14:38,866

and I think what's interesting about podcasting is

407

00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,366

that you really connected a deeper level

408

00:14:41,366 --> 00:14:41,800

because again

409

00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,533

we're getting to know you and your motivation

410

00:14:43,533 --> 00:14:44,633

and we know your pillars now

411

00:14:44,633 --> 00:14:47,233

and I think it's so so powerful

412

00:14:47,233 --> 00:14:49,033

and I would love to see more women

413

00:14:49,033 --> 00:14:50,666

in the podcasting space

414

00:14:51,300 --> 00:14:54,000

less than 7% of people who start podcast

415

00:14:54,166 --> 00:14:57,133

are still podcasting after two years

416

00:14:57,166 --> 00:14:59,966

and so in podcasting for a while

417

00:14:59,966 --> 00:15:02,600

there was a very male dominated space

418

00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,533

so we're excited to work with people like you

419

00:15:04,533 --> 00:15:06,733

to bring more female voices to the market

420

00:15:07,133 --> 00:15:08,200

yes absolutely

421

00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,100

and I'm excited to be one of them

422

00:15:10,100 --> 00:15:11,233

yes well

423

00:15:11,233 --> 00:15:14,733

how can people get in touch with you if they are a mom

424

00:15:14,733 --> 00:15:16,633

you mostly work with moms right

425

00:15:16,833 --> 00:15:17,333

yeah we

426

00:15:17,333 --> 00:15:20,200

we work with moms but we work with all women really

427

00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,300

we can help anybody

428

00:15:21,733 --> 00:15:25,300

so the best way to reach out to me is a DM on Facebook

429

00:15:25,300 --> 00:15:26,933

or you can just go to our website

430

00:15:26,933 --> 00:15:28,533

million dollar mom.org

that's how you can join our Facebook group

432

00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:31,500

00:15:31,500 --> 00:15:34,966

you can see the info on the upcoming event and TV show

434

00:15:34,966 --> 00:15:36,533

and follow along on our journey

435

00:15:36,533 --> 00:15:39,100

and see if you wanna work with us

436

00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,766

different ways we can help you get visible

437

00:15:41,766 --> 00:15:43,633

we're that's what we do

438

00:15:43,633 --> 00:15:45,233

love it that's fantastic

439

00:15:45,233 --> 00:15:46,633

but I wanted to talk about

440

00:15:46,633 --> 00:15:47,900

you help your clients

441

00:15:47,900 --> 00:15:50,233

turn their expertise into an offer

442

00:15:50,233 --> 00:15:52,333

and brand that attracts opportunities

443

00:15:52,333 --> 00:15:53,600

tell us a little bit about

444

00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,300

how you can help them do that

445

00:15:56,133 --> 00:15:56,533

yeah

446

00:15:56,533 --> 00:15:59,833

so one of our offers is called Irresistible Offer Suite

447

00:15:59,833 --> 00:16:02,300

and a lot of like I was saying before

448

00:16:02,300 --> 00:16:03,633

a lot of women think that

449

00:16:03,633 --> 00:16:05,366

they need all these different certifications

450

00:16:05,366 --> 00:16:07,766

or they need to be some crazy expert to help people

451

00:16:07,766 --> 00:16:09,300

and it's just not true

452

00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,733

you really only have to be one step ahead of somebody

453

00:16:11,733 --> 00:16:13,000

to help them with something

454

00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,533

and everybody's a coach

455

00:16:14,533 --> 00:16:16,766

in one way or another like if you're a mom

456

00:16:16,766 --> 00:16:19,166

you're a coach if you're helping people all the time

457

00:16:19,166 --> 00:16:20,333

we're constantly helping people

458

00:16:20,333 --> 00:16:22,400

so what we like to do is

459

00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,566

somebody's feeling stuck on what they want to offer

460

00:16:24,566 --> 00:16:27,100

we like to ask them what do you do for people

461

00:16:27,100 --> 00:16:29,333

now that feels very natural to you

462

00:16:29,333 --> 00:16:31,233

but people come to you like

463

00:16:31,233 --> 00:16:34,566

whether that's cooking or relationship advice

464

00:16:34,566 --> 00:16:38,366

or fitness advice or something that you enjoy

465

00:16:38,366 --> 00:16:39,500

that lights you up

466

00:16:39,500 --> 00:16:41,933

but maybe other people don't like it so much

467

00:16:41,933 --> 00:16:43,166

maybe it's tech stuff

468

00:16:43,166 --> 00:16:46,333

and then that it can be your first offer

469

00:16:46,333 --> 00:16:48,833

because now you have knowledge

470

00:16:48,833 --> 00:16:50,333

you have expertise

471

00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,766

and you should be paid for your value

472

00:16:52,766 --> 00:16:54,500

because a lot of people think

473

00:16:54,500 --> 00:16:54,966

especially

474

00:16:54,966 --> 00:16:57,233

when it's something that comes so very easy to them

475

00:16:57,233 --> 00:16:57,733

that like

476

00:16:57,733 --> 00:16:59,966

automatically everybody just should be that way

477

00:16:59,966 --> 00:17:02,400

like for example I am very organized

478

00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,666

I'm a very very detail oriented organized person

479

00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:06,600

and for a long time

480

00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,833

I just assumed that the whole world was

481

00:17:08,900 --> 00:17:10,933

and then after being in the business world

482

00:17:10,933 --> 00:17:12,000

for quite a bit of time

483

00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,666

I realized that that's not the case haha

484

00:17:14,833 --> 00:17:17,100

and actually most people are quite the opposite

485

00:17:17,100 --> 00:17:19,800

but that is a service that I I don't offer

486

00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,566

but I totally could if if I wanted to

487

00:17:22,566 --> 00:17:25,500

because it's something that comes very naturally to me

488

00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:26,400

it's not something that I

489

00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,200

I have to force to do

490

00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,866

and it's very valuable to other people

491

00:17:30,866 --> 00:17:32,133

that's perfect yeah

492

00:17:32,133 --> 00:17:34,800

to to follow up on what you're already great at

493

00:17:34,933 --> 00:17:36,966

and it's interesting because I think in this economy

494

00:17:36,966 --> 00:17:38,900

you can bring your skills to the table

495

00:17:38,900 --> 00:17:40,800

and really serve people and help them

496

00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,100

and again it's it doesn't always have to be huge

497

00:17:43,100 --> 00:17:44,933

it's sometimes something super simple

498

00:17:45,033 --> 00:17:47,500

I know we bought things that weren't complex

499

00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:49,433

but we got so much out of the courses

500

00:17:49,433 --> 00:17:51,300

or the programs by getting involved

501

00:17:51,300 --> 00:17:52,500

and it's just so much easier

502

00:17:52,500 --> 00:17:54,033

and a lot more fun to have a guide

503

00:17:54,033 --> 00:17:56,433

through learning something new yeah

504

00:17:56,433 --> 00:17:58,833

and Natasha and I have invested tens

505

00:17:58,833 --> 00:18:01,133

and tens of thousands of dollars into courses

506

00:18:01,133 --> 00:18:03,966

and coaching and a lot of times

507

00:18:03,966 --> 00:18:06,133

it's not like some people think like okay

508

00:18:06,133 --> 00:18:08,200

they have this very big expectation

509

00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,433

of what they're gonna get out of the program

510

00:18:10,533 --> 00:18:13,200

and we don't like to go in with expectations

511

00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,600

we kind of do our do diligence

512

00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,300

research the person the community

513

00:18:18,300 --> 00:18:19,833

and a lot of times we're

514

00:18:19,833 --> 00:18:22,100

we're signing up for coaching programs

515

00:18:22,100 --> 00:18:25,233

just to have that that access to their community

516

00:18:25,233 --> 00:18:27,633

because we know that our people are in it

517

00:18:27,733 --> 00:18:31,033

and you can grab little things from

518

00:18:31,033 --> 00:18:34,766

from all these different series of educational courses

519

00:18:34,766 --> 00:18:36,500

and coaching programs that you take

520

00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:38,400

and really build a powerful business

521

00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,200

it's what we have done

522

00:18:40,300 --> 00:18:43,333

and the power of proximity is everything

523

00:18:44,300 --> 00:18:47,033

oh I love that I want to quote that one for you

524

00:18:47,033 --> 00:18:48,100

that's awesome

525

00:18:48,900 --> 00:18:50,966

it's so true too whether it's proximity

526

00:18:50,966 --> 00:18:53,600

in a group or on a zoom call or in person

527

00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,033

I used to always joke that

528

00:18:55,033 --> 00:18:55,733

most business owners

529

00:18:55,733 --> 00:18:57,166

don't want to see themselves as salespeople

530

00:18:57,166 --> 00:19:00,266

but we have to sell something to be a business owner

531

00:19:00,333 --> 00:19:02,100

and sales is a contact sport

532

00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:05,166

you have to come in contact with your ideal clients

533

00:19:05,166 --> 00:19:07,133

in order to actually have conversations

534

00:19:07,433 --> 00:19:08,833

and find out if it's a good fit

535

00:19:08,833 --> 00:19:10,166

and if you can truly help them

536

00:19:10,166 --> 00:19:13,100

for sure and sales is to me is just relationships

537

00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:14,500

I mean I love sales

538

00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:16,400

and so many women are scared of it

539

00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,933

because they've got these issues with

540

00:19:18,933 --> 00:19:21,800

surrounding money and not wanting to ask for the sale

541

00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,533

and just so many different things

542

00:19:23,533 --> 00:19:25,966

and we break through a lot of that with our clients

543

00:19:25,966 --> 00:19:29,133

as well because you are providing a service

544

00:19:29,133 --> 00:19:30,500

and you're very valuable

545

00:19:30,500 --> 00:19:32,666

and you deserve to be paid for it

546

00:19:32,833 --> 00:19:34,533

absolutely I love that

547

00:19:34,533 --> 00:19:35,633

all of that so

548

00:19:35,633 --> 00:19:37,500

the best place for people to find you is to DM

549

00:19:37,500 --> 00:19:39,000

you on Facebook or

550

00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:39,433

I'll bet

551

00:19:39,433 --> 00:19:42,166

if they searched for million Dollar Mom Society

552

00:19:42,166 --> 00:19:45,066

they would quite easily find all of your platforms

553

00:19:45,266 --> 00:19:48,766
