And we all know that in every single business, in every single environment, we're going to find human beings that are in play. And if we can impact the individuals inside of any organization, they're going to play at a higher level. And the higher the level they play, the better the profitability for the business.
And so I generally create impact by driving revenue, but the revenue is the default to actually coming in and supporting people just to feel good, to show up better, to overcome what's been holding them back to truly be the highest and the greatest potential of who they are who they've come here to be.

I'm going to give you three rapid fire responses because I think people need to see in different areas of life. I had a young guy, he was 31 years old at the time, came to me, never been in a long-term relationship, said he was looking to start a business. He wanted to make a bit of a fortune for himself. He had some ideas. He didn't know how to take action. At the time, he was furloughed.

He was homeless. He had to move back in with his mom. He came to me because he was debilitated. And within eight months, the guy had made a million dollars in an e-commerce business that I supported him with. I did not come up with the idea. The idea was his, but I supported him in taking action. He had $800,000 in the bank. He was in a long-term relationship for the first time in his life.

And the reason is because he didn't think that he was worthy of the relationship. That's why he had never been in a relationship up until the age of 31. Never been in a relationship. The guy had had two one-night stands his entire life. But here, he was all of a sudden in a long-term committed relationship. Again, I didn't introduce him to the girl. I didn't give him the business idea.

they were really struggling with morale and getting people to show up on these camera calls and to navigate what Zoom world looked like and then to drive revenue. And I spent a couple of days with them inside of their business, meaning logging into their calls, listening. And I identified, man, this company has so much potential, but there is a tremendous amount of lack mentality in the business.

I identified that the people selling the products, they didn't believe that anyone could afford what they were selling because they themselves couldn't afford what they were selling. I did a handful of trainings on reminding them that they may not be in a position to buy what they're selling, but every person coming to them has the power, the potential to do that.
