It's so logical. And yet no one talks about it. In fact, for most women today, what do we talk about? Oh, you have a girl's night and you talk about your husband. The jerky is like, that's normal. That's not normal. That's actually not normal. It doesn't make any sense. That's the person that you go to home, you go to sleep with and you build a life with.
And yet we're just going to talk shit about them. What does that really say about you? Okay, guys, Natalie Dawson here today, co-founder of Cardone Ventures here in Vegas for 10X Growth Con, right? Sure am. You about to speak? We'll see. We never released the list at a time. He keeps it as a surprise.
It is a surprise. We got some big ones. Controversial people, some interesting people. It's going to be good. That's cool. Have you been to the last few 10X Growth Cons?
I have. So when we partnered with Grant Cardone because my husband and I went to a growth con in 2019. So he got me tickets for Christmas because I was like, this Grant Cardone guy is going to change our life and I think we should be business partners with him. And I forced him to read a bunch of Grant's books.
and decided for Christmas that year, he bought me GrowthCon diamond front row, GrowthCon tickets. Wow. Went to the event, 35,000 people in arena. Those four days changed my life. And we went up to Grant afterwards and said, are you interested in adding another billion to your net worth? What an offer.
Looked a little funny. People make that offer to him all the time. Like people just bullshit their way through all sorts of, you know, I'm going to 10X this. I'm going to do this for you. And he doesn't take the bait very often. And he didn't take our bait initially either, but we invested in his funds and we showed up as competent people around him.
And three months later, we had a joint business called Cardo Ventures. Wow. We've been running that for the last six years. Within three months. That's impressive. So you convinced him. We did.
Yeah. I told him when he just came on, he changed my life. I went to his second ever growth con. No way. And that was my first conference ever. Which one was it? It was the one in Vegas at the Luxor, I think. Okay. Or no, it might've been Mandalay. Mandalay, yeah. Yeah. But I stayed at the Luxor. Dang. And I was just like, oh my gosh, I need to step it up. Amazing.
Yeah. When you see that crowd, like you said, like 20, 30,000 people, it makes you want to just work your way up to that stage.
