The marriage, the family, or the empire. Elena Cardone built all three at once, and she says the thing that finally made her powerful was giving up her independence. The "Build an Empire" author and 10X Ladies founder breaks down the 2008 collapse that nearly wiped them out, why she walked away from acting to support Grant Cardone, and how she and Grant found a purpose big enough to hold a 22 year partnership together. She explains the decision she made to never love again and how she got rid of it, why she refuses to let anyone invalidate her or her daughters, what she learned about money that most women get wrong, and who you actually have to become before billionaire is even on the table. Watch to learn how to build a partnership that takes you past your own ceiling.
