And I would love for you to just freely speak whatever is coming up from your heart to them that could support them today to at least take step one or to turn around and support somebody to get to step three or in your case, step 10,000? What would be something that is really pressing on your heart that you want to share with them?

Yeah, two things bubble up and we can double click on either of them.

The first is I guide people through what I call the park bench exercise.

And that's just imagine you see yourself from like five or 10 years ago sitting on a park bench and you have five minutes to talk to them.

What would you sit down and go tell them? And chances are you can reach that person in a better way than I could or Tony Robbins could or like insert whoever you think is awesome.

They'll listen to you because you've actually gone through it.

You've come out the other side.

What would be three things that you would have us focus on or that you would focus on in your first 90 days to start getting your message out there so you can get from step one to step three?

And one of the things I always remember from Tony that's kind of coming up for me now with you is that, you know, all humans all over the world right billions and billions of people we all have that one thing in common that that thinking that we're not enough right is like that the kind of underlying like human fear or need that that we yearn for what like you've met so many incredible people tell us how you've connected with so many great people and why you've kind of made it this mission in your life to learn lessons from the people that you're meeting

So modeling success is what saved my first business.

So I struggled.

My first company was a biotech software company.

I was making $300 a month.

I owned 30% of the company.

I was telling my friends that I was living the entrepreneur lifestyle, hustling.

Five books total, is that right?

Need a hiring hero? This is a job for Indeed Sponsored Jobs.

If you woke up every day and felt like nothing I do matters, like I'm going to show up to work, nobody cares, my work is stupid, there's no impact, I'm just, you know, punching a clock, that's the path down to like I need to get out of this life.

So the reason to become an entrepreneur or to do anything isn't because you don't like something else.

It's like what are you moving towards? And that thing that you're moving towards has to be exciting.

And I think a lot of people are just running away from a life that they don't like.

It's why we love weekends and vacations and all this because you're just escaping a life that you don't like as opposed to moving towards something that you do.

I think a lot of people end up losing when they blame competition or the algorithm or whatever.

Hmm.

Right.

And we look at the...

YouTube will show you the one-minute retention curve, like, where are people falling off, and most people are in, I don't know, 40% range in the first minute, which means you lost 60% of people in the first minute.

So you made this, like, 80-minute awesome podcast, whatever, and, like, 60% are gone in the first minute.

So it doesn't matter if you had great meat in there.

The intro sucked, and so you lost everybody.

And some people are higher, some people are lower.

Yeah.

Where did this come from? And was there a time in your life when you really struggled to believe in yourself?

Yeah, what a great start.

And listen, believe and confidence are very, they're like sister words.

Yeah, it's a very similar.

Anybody here is struggling with confidence probably also struggles with self-belief.

And honestly, I still do, right? I mean, it's like we have confidence or belief in what we have done, but it's what we haven't done yet that we still continue to struggle and have some confidence with.

And so for me, I had so many issues, right? I'm an introvert as a starting point.

yeah absolutely uh I'm going to bring Jermaine on in a second but I have one question I want to ask you so you believe that your mission is to solve uh the world's biggest problem which is that people don't believe in themselves which I think is the world's biggest problem too um why do you think that's the world's biggest problem and what do you see um

Yeah.

Yeah, if you don't have the belief yourself, then you can borrow belief from other people.

And that might be somebody in your circle.

If you have anybody in your circle who believes in you more than you believe in yourself, holy cow, hold on to that person.

You know, I have an expression I like to collect good people.

So... hold on to that person, fight to spend more time with them because most people...

And think about your audience.

But let's riff some more on the concept of breaking through imposter syndrome when it rears its ugly head and getting to new levels.

But, uh, but why don't, why don't w- you know, the audience just get to know you a little bit, tell you about how you came up, tell you what you're passionate about, tell you what you're looking forward to doing?

Uh, yeah.

I mean, e- entrepreneurial tendency is my whole life.

Uh, but, you know, I thought I wanted to be a banker, and then in university, I had the choice between, like, go get my dream job or start a business, and I chose start a business.

Not that I thought it'd work out, just that I didn't wanna live with regret, you know? Like, hey, who knows what will happen? But that company struggled.

Uh, in the first years of making 300 bucks a month, too afraid to tell anybody I was struggling, you know.

My entrepreneur friend, or my, my friends went off and got the jobs, and they wanted to go hang out.

Uh, what did she do differently that unlocked your potential?

Yeah, yeah.

You know, the world has evolved, but our brains haven't much.

And the thing that makes you weird and different is the thing that people end up loving you for, uh, now, you know, in this era.

And as long as the intent is positive and to help and good, um, I, I try to...

I say that great ideas flow through me.

And so, like, great ideas are coming to you, and so you have a responsibility to take that idea and do something with it.

Uh, as long as you're in a positive state.

Yes.

I want to share with you today a message which is simply entitled, Faith Like Rahab.

Faith Like Rahab.

Because I want to give you a truth, and that truth is found in Hebrews 11, verse 6.

It is impossible to please God without faith.

Anyone who wants to come to Him must believe that God exists, and that He rewards those who sincerely seek Him.

That's a strong word there, impossible.
