Trust in yourself. And, you're not afraid to take chances because you know what it feels like to not win. Yeah, but do you know what it feels like to win? So, you don't take the chance? How are you ever going to know you're just going to stay stuck on stupid?

00:00:30:17 - 00:00:58:13

Welcome back to Crafted Entrepreneur. So all of you are in for a very, very special treat because my mom is making a guest appearance on today's show. And we've been talking about this for years because people always have a lot of questions for my mom. And and I never even really ask her them. But today is the day that she's coming on live, and I'm so excited for her to be here.

00:00:58:13 - 00:01:21:17

Unknown

So make sure to show her lots of love in the comments. And she, you know, might come back if she loved this, she might do it again. So I think people find my mom fascinating because they've heard so much about her through my podcast, through my live event, through my coaching programs, because people have always wondered, Kayla, why do you have this confidence that you really just think you can do anything?

00:01:21:21 - 00:01:39:07

Unknown

And I always say it's because that's what my mom taught me when I was growing up. No matter what we were going through, what situation we faced. In my childhood, my mom always taught me to speak life over myself and that my words had power. You guys know the story. She wouldn't even let me say that I was sick when I was a kid.

00:01:39:07 - 00:01:54:04

Unknown

She'd make me eat cloves of garlic and she'd be like, no, you're not. And that's just the type of mindset I have. And so I'm so grateful for my mom because I realize how much, you know, my words have power. And I know that if it's meant to be, it's going to happen. There's nothing I can do to mess it up.

00:01:54:04 - 00:02:19:02

Unknown

And I'm so thankful for my mom because I get to look at you. She's she's never done this before. You guys, this first time she's on camera. You look beautiful. Okay, so let's welcome Jenny Desmarais. This is my French mother to the show. Welcome. Thank you. Okay, so people want to know, like, what was your faith story like?

00:02:19:02 - 00:02:37:08

Unknown

Like, how did you know to teach me as a child to watch my words? Like, did your parents teach you to be like that or. You know what I mean? Like, where did you learn that? Yeah. No, just from going to church and that, your words, you speak life? I don't really know. I think it's because it's because of church.

00:02:37:10 - 00:02:57:06

Unknown

Yeah. Because I went to church, I wasn't brought, I was brought up Catholic. But I ended up going to a non-denominational church, and I just was fed there and, learned a lot about Christ, his love, and, and that his word is life. So was your childhood like that? I mean, obviously, I know, but do you want to share?

00:02:57:07 - 00:03:14:04

Unknown

No. We were brought up Catholic. We went to church every Sunday. We did. But I mean, what was it like at home? No, we we sat every night before we went to bed. We all sat around the, the bed and say our prayers like our father hail Mary's Catholic Church. We didn't we didn't learn about the Bible. Okay.

00:03:14:06 - 00:03:33:00

Unknown

So you didn't learn about the Bible. And then also, what was it that was being taught at home about your words? Were, you know, your mom saying stuff like that? I don't know. It was God. Oh, yeah. It was God. He he chose me. Oh, I love that. Yeah. Do you want to share how your childhood was at all?

00:03:33:02 - 00:03:57:23

Unknown

my childhood was, It was good. Lots of good memories. lots of bad memories. But, I had, friends and family that were very, Christlike and loved the Lord and taught me what it is to be loved, even though my my, my family did the greatest job in love. I mean, we are all great kids.

00:03:57:23 - 00:04:18:04

Unknown

I come from a family of six and we all love and respect and do for others. We were totally taught that. But to learn the Word of God, we really weren't taught that. We were taught how to behave, but not God's word. Right? That makes sense. And it was your best friend when you were 18 that that got you to go to church, right?

00:04:18:04 - 00:04:34:18

Unknown

Well, not when I was 18, but when I was in, junior high. Oh, in junior high. I didn't know it was that early. Yeah. And it was Teresa, right? No, it was Kelly. Oh, oh, oh, I thought it was Teresa. Okay, so Kelly is a very, you know, that's like your best friend, but she passed away. Yes.

00:04:34:19 - 00:05:00:08

Unknown

A little over a year ago. Yes. Yeah. Okay. but she's got lots of she. What is it like that it's going to be like in heaven when you're an evangelist and you tell people about God. She's got a mansion. I don't know, I don't know. It's like, I don't know. She's amazing now. She invited me to her church, and, we watched the cross in the switchblade movie, and that scared me.

00:05:00:11 - 00:05:21:09

Unknown

So maybe I was scared into it. But then after that, I learned I wanted to live for Christ. I didn't want to do bad things. I didn't always live by that. It took a many years for me, many years. But I always had the Lord and he was always pursuing me, and he was always feeding me. And he surrounded me with great friends, great family, and he never let me go.

00:05:21:11 - 00:05:42:19

Unknown

Oh, and I give him all the glory today. Oh, I love that. Yeah. Okay. And then what was your profession while you're raising me? I was a hairstylist. And how long were you a hair stylist for? 37 years. Oh my gosh. Yeah. Long time. And. Okay, I want to talk about this because you were a hairstylist assistant, right?

00:05:42:19 - 00:06:05:00

Unknown

For how many years? Ten, ten years. And then you decided to go out on your own and. Right. Because I read these books that talked about the rapture. No, I'm. I said that the left behind. Yes. The left behind. Oh, my gosh. Because I, I was like ten or something around this time. And I worked for somebody that was very hard to work for, but I, I didn't have the confidence.

00:06:05:00 - 00:06:24:22

Unknown

But, I got married for the second time and I had it second income. So I felt like, okay, this is time for me to branch out. Yeah. But you. So you felt like, okay, I don't want to, like, if the rapture were to happen tomorrow, I don't I want to live how God wants me to live. I was not feeling like I was, projecting God the way I should have been.

00:06:25:02 - 00:06:42:18

Unknown

Yeah. So what would you tell that person that's listening in right now? That maybe they know they need to take action? Maybe it's not the rapture that's going to happen tomorrow, right? But like, they kind of are playing it safe and not going all in on what God really has for. No, do not play it safe. God has plans, the best plans.

00:06:42:22 - 00:07:10:13

Unknown

And don't do it our way because we screwed up. I always say don't let Jenny do it because she'll screw it up. Do it God's way. It's a hard place to get to, but it's truth and it's so worth it. What has been like the hardest part about raising like a strong willed child like me? now are back now back then because, like, there's parents listening in right now that, yeah, have little ears that I had to let her be her.

00:07:10:17 - 00:07:32:13

Unknown

I had to actually. Kayla you did a lot of it. God gave you that gift. Because you you did a lot of it on your own. And also you had help from my sister Cindy. I mean I was a mess back then kind of, I was kind of growing myself up you know, and, and I just know you did a lot of the work.

00:07:32:14 - 00:07:56:17

Unknown

You God just gifted you. Yeah. I always had God part. God had his hand of protection over me. Totally. But it's also you prayed? Yes. Like totally. You might not have been doing some things right, but like, you were praying, right? I don't think you and I was I was doing the best job that I can. I didn't let you get away with a lot, but I did let you get away with some.

00:07:56:19 - 00:08:14:10

Unknown

Okay. So I'm like, you're saying like, let them be themselves. Like, I think if you're raising entrepreneur, your kids, they're kids that think outside of the box. They're also kids that always want to know why. You know, that's all the questions you ask, all the questions like they're not going to just follow rules one through ten because you said so.

00:08:14:11 - 00:08:31:22

Unknown

They need to understand right? Why are you beat to a different drum. Yeah. Yes. And sometimes that can be frustrating as a parent because like just, you know, this is this is the way we do it. That's the way it's going to be done. And you're going to do it. But by golly, no. But I was the same way while you were an entrepreneur, as a hairstylist.

00:08:31:22 - 00:08:51:22

Unknown

So you're I did you can ask two out of all my sisters and brother. I did did it my way. But out of all six of you, well, there's two of you that are entrepreneurs. You and Uncle Greg. Yes, the other one. Right. So you thought differently. But anyways, I think that's fascinating because I know that there's parents listening in right now that, you know, need to hear that.

00:08:51:22 - 00:09:09:14

Unknown

Like it's okay that your kid beats to another drummer, maybe because maybe they don't fit in or, you know, I had so much trouble. You did, you did, and you were just set apart. You were just you had to fight the fight. And what what did you always tell me when I was going through rejection and just always felt like a black sheep.

00:09:09:18 - 00:09:33:13

Unknown

Just be true to you. You're a good person. You've got you're better than that. Don't bring yourself down to them. You've got a lot to offer. so I'm so thankful you did that because that is I think why like as an entrepreneur I can I have thick skin to like I'm okay with not fitting in. I'm okay with just like doing what works for Kayla, you know, and like following God's purpose for my life.

00:09:33:13 - 00:09:48:05

Unknown

And I think a lot of people don't have moms like that. So I'm so grateful for you, for being that way. And like, I want you just to speak life into those people right now that a lot of people have bad relationships with their parents, you know? Well, we haven't always had the best all the time. I know.

00:09:48:06 - 00:10:08:07

Unknown

Yeah, I know, but with God's grace and God's word and tough conversations, we're getting there. We're I mean, we're we're at work in progress. Well, we're always works. Yes. But what do you say to those people that kind of don't have that support system in their life? Because I feel like you're my support system when I anything I'm to reach out to the Lord.

00:10:08:08 - 00:10:29:00

Unknown

The Lord is your support system. I mean, it's taken me forever. But that's where you get your strength and your confidence. Not in the world, not in things, but in his word, because he he knows the plans he has for us, plans to prosper us, not bring us harm to bring us hope and a future. And it's all true.

00:10:29:06 - 00:10:48:03

Unknown

So you need to embrace that and really, trust the Lord. I mean, it's it's truth, but what does it look like to trust the Lord? Because you always tell me that trust, trust God does trust God your faith just to know that you know that you know. I mean, to read the word, to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

00:10:48:03 - 00:11:09:14

Unknown

You have to read the word, you have to be fed, and you have to surround yourself with your tribe. My girlfriends, you have a good tribe. So good day, so good. What do you guys call yourselves? The sister chicks. And how long have you guys been friends? well, some of us since elementary and all of us junior high and high school.

00:11:09:14 - 00:11:30:14

Unknown

And we get together at least twice a year. But we're on a constant, Bible app. Every morning we speak to each other, but so cute. And, you guys have had some hardships that you've gone through? Yes. Throughout the years. Yes, in your group. But the one thing that thread do you guys all is Jesus. Right.

00:11:30:16 - 00:11:47:11

Unknown

So it is it's finding, finding those people. And I always I used to be jealous of you when I because I'm like gosh my mom has like these amazing friends. I grew up with them. They were like my second aunts or whatever, you know. and I wanted that and I think I finally found that, you know, but it took me some time.

00:11:47:13 - 00:12:10:15

Unknown

What would you say to the people listening in right now that maybe don't have they just a lot of people just don't have support? I know, it's sad because it's hard to find friends. These days because people are lost and they're all looking for something to fill, to fill that loneliness or fill that hole. I was very fortunate to have these friends forever.

00:12:10:17 - 00:12:29:20

Unknown

but to get involved in a church or small group or just. You have to be bold and put yourself out there. You pray about it. Lord, put someone in my life. So how are you feeling about this move to Minnesota? Because you're leaving. I mean you've already left Bakersfield to come here with me, right. And you've made new friends here, which I'm so proud of you.

00:12:29:21 - 00:12:49:06

Unknown

Yes. Through church. Really. I made those friends. And now you're going to go with me to Minnesota. how are you feeling about that? I pray about it every day. Like today. My Bible study group said. So are you going? I go today, I'm going because every day is a new day. I mean, I'm praying God's will, not my will.

00:12:49:07 - 00:13:05:15

Unknown

I don't want to do things my way, the easy way or whatever. I want to do what God wants me to do and where he wants me, where I be used the best because it's not about me. What are your, what does your prayer look like. Like when you say I prayed today about it Lord put me where you want me to be.

00:13:05:15 - 00:13:24:11

Unknown

Your will be done not mine. So it's like almost like dying to yourself. Exactly. Every day. That's what we're supposed to do. What does that mean? To sacrifice? Not what's going to make me happy. We're not here to make ourselves happy. We're here to show. We're here to serve each other and to show God's God's love. But you should also be happy.

00:13:24:13 - 00:13:47:05

Unknown

Yeah, I know, but I'm happy serving the Lord, right? That's where you're happiness. I'm being obedient. I have never been obedient. I've never been obedient. What's the hardest thing about being obedient? Because there are a lot of blessings that come when you're following God, right? Even though it's not the easy path. No, it's not the one on the trail that's like, oh, here's exactly how you're going to get to the title.

00:13:47:07 - 00:14:09:15

Unknown

So what was the question. How does it feel to be obedient. It feels good. Scary sometimes because I don't want to fail. It's hard. It's hard sometimes because you don't always feel good. But we're not here to feel good. We're here. We're here for the Lord. Well your emotions. You're what you're saying is you're not letting your emotions dictate.

00:14:09:21 - 00:14:28:09

Unknown

I'm. What you doing that. Yes. Yes. Right. And I think that's a hard thing because a lot of people let their emotions dictate everything. Right. And that's actually not. Well, it's a learned thing though. Why? Where did you learn that? To what? To let your emotions lead you. Because how I felt that's how it was. I was yeah.

00:14:28:12 - 00:14:54:03

Unknown

Your emotions were your reality right. You thought. Right. And now it's like you realize that that's God has a different reality right. Right. It's. Yeah. Wow. Well so what do you feel like are your like biggest things that you've learned as having me as your daughter. you can be honest. I know I'm that's I know you don't know how to be not dishonest.

00:14:54:03 - 00:15:18:19

Unknown

Yes. Unfortunately, no. I'm joking. to live just to keep my mouth shut. No. And let you do collab. But I also, I have to be true to myself. And if I, I just pray about it now. I don't have to speak how I feel. I just need to take it to the Lord because, okay, so let's let's break this down for people.

00:15:18:19 - 00:15:36:16

Unknown

Because people are like, what do you mean? Just be quiet. Like, it's because you, I guess, have a history, right? Of if there's an elephant in the room you're gonna talk about. Right? Exactly. And you're going to you're going to go to town on it, and there is going to be. Yeah, I don't want to walk around. There's something going on that's fixed that that's me.

00:15:36:21 - 00:16:00:16

Unknown

Right? I've always tried to be a fixer. And now I think what you've learned, especially since we've been like living together, too, it's like there's a time and a place for everything. I'm learning that you're learning that because that's, I think, as a high performing person. Right? I, I can't just we can't just always talk about an elephant in the room because I have to I have to focus on what I have going on right now.

00:16:00:16 - 00:16:23:21

Unknown

And you've got a life and I'm I'm at the age I'm at. I see things differently. And where you're at, you've got you. You've got your way, I mean your way. You've got a thing going boom, boom, boom. I'm at my age, I can I have time to look now and, and observe and, I, and I appreciate your wisdom, but you have wisdom.

00:16:23:21 - 00:16:41:12

Unknown

You have. I'm getting wisdom. Yeah, you're gaining wisdom. And you spend a lot of time in the word. Yeah. I mean, you spend hours in the word every day. so. But what I want to point out is we got to that place because we were arguing. Right? And I'm like, mom, if you want to talk to me about something like, we need to set a time for it, right?

00:16:41:17 - 00:16:59:12

Unknown

Right. I didn't like it. I know, but I think, like for people listening in right now, like, if you want to have healthy relationships, if something's not working for you in your relationship right now, maybe it's with your mom, a best friend to somebody you care about that you want to be in relationship with, you invest in it.

00:16:59:12 - 00:17:19:10

Unknown

Yeah, you got to have those hard conversations, right? It's like mom, like I respect you and I can't keep having this go on because it feels toxic, right? Is the word I use, which is probably a little too aggressive. But now it's like, I know last week and you're like, okay, is my 15 minutes because we need to chat, you know, and what do you do?

00:17:19:12 - 00:17:36:06

Unknown

I didn't want to talk. But I mean, for the most part, I have been better. I feel like I've grown like, okay, I'm going to talk about the thing that I don't want to talk about. Right. Exactly. But we both respect each other. And I think it's because we have to teach each other. Right. Okay. This is really important to me.

00:17:36:06 - 00:17:55:17

Unknown

Right? And. Okay. What's important to you? All right. I'm going to work on that. Right. And so have those conversations with people you love. Yes. Because talk to each other, not at each other. That's so important. Yeah. Don't don't talk at each other. Top two. What does that mean? Can we just talk like that. Not. No no no no.

00:17:55:18 - 00:18:23:03

Unknown

Like that. Just talk. Well, I think that, like, you know, out of love, no judgment. Yeah. I think there's no expectations. Just love. Yeah. And you, I think if people weren't raised that way to talk to and like, really calm down and have good conversation like that, then maybe they don't know how to have that. And so you have to kind of be patient and gracious with people.

00:18:23:03 - 00:18:41:21

Unknown

Right. But also if that's something important to you, you have to work on it. And yes, and because I wasn't brought up to talk, I know. How are you brought up to stay in my room because they didn't want to hear me. I had a lot to say. So I it's important to me. That's why the whole elephant thing.

00:18:42:02 - 00:18:56:17

Unknown

Yes, you have it. It's like you want if. Because you were shut up as a child, you want to talk about it now, right? Because you're an adult and you're like, I'm going to talk about it right? This I see a problem here, let's fix it. But I also I'm not God. And see a lot of times I was going to know you're going to get it.

00:18:56:17 - 00:19:21:00

Unknown

Yeah. But that's not my job. Oh my gosh she's making me laugh. Mom okay, so people are listening in right now and they, you know, are wanting to have these conversations with people that they care about what is like the best way you think to help somebody get their point across? So maybe they're upset with, you know, something, maybe it's even their spouse, something that their spouse is doing.

00:19:21:00 - 00:19:40:11

Unknown

How should they approach the conversation? First? I'd pray about it. Okay, Lord, if you want this to happen, set a time. Show me. Show me when is a good time to speak. and then, you know, say, hey, do you think we can talk without any nothing in the air? I just really need to get this off. I need you to.

00:19:40:13 - 00:19:59:10

Unknown

I need to talk to you. I need to figure this out. What am I doing wrong? What do you. Let's fix this. I mean, just be real. We all have needs. We all just want to be loved and accepted. That's. I mean, we all, everybody on this earth, nobody's any better than anybody else. So I love that.

00:19:59:11 - 00:20:16:06

Unknown

That's so true. I love that about you. Because you are really. I mean, I always say you're you've been a therapist this whole time while you've been doing people's hair because you've been the safe space for so many people, because you don't judge people. Right. They really can kind of share it all, and you're going to love them right through it, through it.

00:20:16:12 - 00:20:35:16

Unknown

And I think that's such a special gift that you have because, like you, a lot of people don't have that gift, right? You know, I'm like, get to the point where, what do you need? But, I appreciate that so much about you. And for people that maybe, you know, they have trouble, I think I struggle with this.

00:20:35:16 - 00:20:56:02

Unknown

I mean, I've gotten better, but, like, they have struggles with maybe putting down the walls to, like, because they might get hurt, right? They they don't want to open up. So then what's. So what, you get hurt? What? There you go. Yeah. I mean, it's it's tell me. No, I mean, it's worth it. Yeah. To get to the other side.

00:20:56:04 - 00:21:12:21

Unknown

That's someone in. Let them love you. I mean, because you're not perfect. There's no perfect person, right? So I put on this, but I got it all handled. But you don't need to be like that with everybody. No. It's use. I mean, you've taught me that it's use discernment. And exactly. If my mama don't like you, I don't like you.

00:21:12:21 - 00:21:28:22

Unknown

I just straight out of the gate. If my mom has weird feelings about you, I'm not going to even talk to you, because you're very. You're discerning. You've always been like that. Anybody that I was, like, wanting to be friends with growing up. And you'd be like, no. It ended up on you're the same way. I know. I think it's that's a gift.

00:21:28:23 - 00:21:46:15

Unknown

That is a gift that God. But we meet, we need to meet people where they're at. Like you at a time you were not ready to hear certain things that I have to say, and I wasn't. I mean, there's a certain time. God's timing is always right, but we need to meet people where they're at. Like you're hurting.

00:21:46:17 - 00:22:02:00

Unknown

It's it's in the Bible more. And when people mourn or be happy when people are happy. It's good. Yeah. You're good at I mean you're good at that. I'm, I'm not that good at that because I'm like let's go. What's your motto to me in the morning. What did you tell me. Get up and be somebody. Yeah.

00:22:02:00 - 00:22:22:09

Unknown

Get up and be somebody okay. Did you forget trying to. Kind of forget. But like this is who you were, you know, like, so this is how I was raised. And I think that, like, it's good for people to hear, like, even though I feel like some I mean, a lot of my childhood was chaotic. I mean, even high school and all this stuff, there's always stuff going on.

00:22:22:11 - 00:22:40:23

But I don't remember that as much as I remember the principles that you instilled in me. And I think that's the basis of what and why I have a firm foundation. Right. Same here with me growing up, the principles, I was brought up with good principles. Well, and I think that's the. And you, I always knew you loved me.

00:22:40:23 - 00:22:59:01

I didn't ever doubt. Did my mom love me? No, I know, but people have this mindset that they need to be perfect. You know, if they didn't cut, you know, perfect squares for their children's lunch today, they're a mad mom, right? You know, like, it's like the perfection. Like, is insane. And it's like, none of that stuff matters.

00:22:59:03 - 00:23:15:19

Unknown

Like whatsoever. That's why we have to find our identity in Christ. Yeah. I know, I mean that's so true but that's so true. But that was the principle you taught me growing up. It's like but who does God say you are. You know, you, you, you know you're not what all these other people say. You're what God says you are.

00:23:15:19 - 00:23:34:18

You're made in the image of God. You're courageous. Wonderfully made. Right. So I think that, like, that's the stuff if you want to focus on anything as a parent, it's like, instill the truth. Yes. Instill with that. It's going to be hard. You're going to have trials and well, yeah, it's going to be hard. But like that's where I'm saying is like that's the most important thing.

00:23:34:18 - 00:23:53:09

Unknown

Like people focus on the unimportant things, right. As a parent like, you know, do all of my kids match today? Right. You know, did I brush my kids hair today? Which, yes, the hygiene is important, but it's like, that's not the thing that's going to make or break, right? Your kids growing up, it's like, what is the things that you're speaking over them.

00:23:53:11 - 00:24:12:19

Unknown

Right. And I love that because you're so good with my kids now. Like, I think it's such a treat that my kids get me. They get Chase, which he's awesome. And you like they, they kind of getting like which I mean, it's only been a year and I just feel like you speak so much life over them. Even the other day when Charlie brought what does she bring up home.

00:24:12:19 - 00:24:30:14

Unknown

Home. And she like she was going through her. I mean, you were like, you met a celebrity. You were like, freaking out because you read, oh my gosh, this is like, you are brilliant. Like you were just speaking. And it took me back to, like, that's how you were when I was a kid. Yeah. You know, and so you really kind of have this confidence about you because you're like, wow, like I'm amazing.

00:24:30:16 - 00:24:57:22

Unknown

And that's the stuff that's important is what are you speaking over your children? Right. Are we using our words to bless or are we using our words to curse down right. And like I see it, you know, I coach people all the time, you know, and a lot of their stuff that they're struggling with when it comes to confidence, when it comes to just going out there, taking risks, going after their business, the lack of confidence is stemmed from their childhood because their parents, oh, you didn't get it.

00:24:58:01 - 00:25:17:16

Unknown

You know, you got to see on that test you you know you know. But they're doing also oh she's going to be compassionate for the parents which is good. Well everyone does the best. They do the best job they can at the time. I mean you don't know what walk they're walking or where they've been or what they've been fed growing up.

00:25:17:16 - 00:25:40:21

Unknown

So you just that's why God gives us grace. Because we're not going to always get it right. And it's taken me years to get where I'm at today. Right? Because I, I, I was a mess, but I like me, I like me, I still am a work in progress, which we all are. But, you just needed to have grace, just like God has every day.

00:25:41:03 - 00:26:05:03

Unknown

He never sin. No, we're not God. We're never going to be God. But he he pursued. He he he's pursuing well. He is good. But we need to pursue good and seek goodness and righteousness. Yes. And see the good in people. Because there's oh there's something in there and, and if you know hurt people, if you see people the hurting inside like what can I do to help you.

00:26:05:04 - 00:26:24:03

Unknown

Love you. Compassion. Yeah. I think that's one thing that you teach everybody is compassion. Yeah. Even Sarita remember Sarita when she was here for a week. And you guys have heard that story on the podcast where she came and she was diagnosed with leukemia while she was visiting us. And my mom was there when she collapsed, you know, in the driveway.

00:26:24:05 - 00:26:42:14

Unknown

And she's still, like, that whole week. You took care of her. Even before she was diagnosed, we knew something was wrong. Me and you both. We were worried. And she mess she keeps. How's your mom? Like she loves you. Like you left that imprint of compassion with her. Which I think is so beautiful. Because that's just. That is who you are.

00:26:42:14 - 00:27:02:00

Unknown

Just like, she's just so precious. I've never met anybody like her. so it's like compassion is such a gift. It is. It is such a gift, that everybody can receive. Right? Because the more you pursue God's heart, the more you're going to have that. So I think that's evident in your life. Now, let's leave all the viewers with one final thing.

00:27:02:02 - 00:27:18:04

Unknown

I think you see me. I'm always going, right? I'm constantly taking risks. I'll be like, I'm going to invest in this. I'm going to do this today. And you're just like, I think, do it. Well, now I feel like you're kind of. You kind of expect that now. Yeah. Like it doesn't scare you as much as maybe it used to.

00:27:18:04 - 00:27:44:10

Unknown

Right? You just go like it's going to work. It's just. Yeah it's Kayla. She's just got a you're driven. You're very driven. And that's good for you. No, no I mean that's good, but I feel like it's because I have a good foundation and I feel like you're part of my foundation. So I'm so thankful for you. But what would you tell those people to get that firm foundation so they really can go?

00:27:44:10 - 00:28:00:16

Unknown

Hey, you know what? I'm going to take risks in my business. I'm going to go after it with my whole heart because even like I if it goes all the way tomorrow, like I'm going to rebuild. I'm not scared of that. You know, you've seen me rebuild a couple of times, right? So it's like it's going with that trust in God, right.

00:28:00:16 - 00:28:18:21

Unknown

And trust in yourself. Trust in yourself. And you're not afraid to take chances because you know what it feels like to not win. Yeah. But do you know what it feels like to win. So if, you don't take the chance, how are you ever going to know you're just going to stay stuck on stupid. Sorry.

00:28:18:23 - 00:28:34:21

Unknown

That's good. That's you. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's why I am the way I am. You know? It's like I'm so grateful for that because it's like, what do you have to lose? You have everything to gain. What do you have to lose? Like, if they can't take my salvation from me, like, taking a business risk isn't going to take my salvation away.

00:28:34:21 - 00:28:54:13

Maybe I lose money, maybe I lose time. Maybe I get embarrassed. But it's not going to take the main. It can't take my stock. Exactly. Yeah, right. Okay. Well, I love you.
