When you feel isolated and alone and like you're the only one this is happening to, like a victim, then that's when you can become overpowered. Oh yeah. You know, the connection with God keeps you from being overrun.

Well, actually, Jason did. How do you feel?

0

0

98.342 - 98.562 Emily Wilkes

0

98.823 - 99.904 Ray Gutierrez

Is this your first podcast?

100.104 - 100.204

Yeah.

100.285 - 102.067 Emily Wilkes

This is also my first podcast.

102.808 - 103.369 Ray Gutierrez

How does it feel?

104.029 - 106.592 Emily Wilkes

It feels good. I mean, I feel special.

Chapter 3: What lessons did Emilee learn about overcoming fear and building resilience?

200.309 - 212.364 Ray Gutierrez

Absolutely. Amen to that. Let's rewind a little bit and talk about this near death experience or some would say near life experience. Yeah. Do you mind walking us through that? What's it like experiencing this?

0

213.465 - 242.41 Emily Wilkes

Well, at 11 years old, I... It was a huge shock, obviously. It happened on the 4th of July. We were hit by a drunk driver going 80 miles an hour in his Porsche. And needless to say, wrecked me. I had massive internal bleeding. I took the brunt of the force. My family was injured, but not as severely. And my sister who was sitting closest to me

0

242.39 - 264.592 Emily Wilkes

her pelvic bone actually snapped in half due to the pressure that was on the side of the vehicle that I was on. So yeah, I had, my spleen exploded, my liver and intestine had to be reattached. I lost my spleen permanently. I don't have it. So after that, I battled really a lot with my health because spleen is kind of important when it comes to fighting infection and bacteria and things.

0

264.612 - 283.517 Emily Wilkes

So, but you know, the grace of God, I, I lived. In fact, there was an off duty paramedic and MP that just happened to be right there during the accident. And they called in lifelight. And that's, you know, ultimately that saved me because without that, I would have I would have died. So.

0

283.835 - 287.179 Ray Gutierrez

Do you remember all of this? Were you unconscious? Were you knocked out cold?

287.259 - 297.131 Emily Wilkes

When the accident first happened, I was asleep, luckily. They say that when you get impact, if you can see something coming, you actually tense more and can actually exaggerate your injuries.

297.472 - 298.593 Georgie Crawford

And time slows down, right?

298.613 - 326.949 Emily Wilkes

Yes. I luckily was asleep, and my injuries were still very severe. I do remember waking up. I do remember... being pulled out of the vehicle and I was vomiting blood. And then I do remember being in the hospital, waking up. The first time I actually woke fully, I was actually sleepwalking. I was trying to find my little sister and brother. I'm the oldest. So like kind of the caregiver.

327.109 - 350.072 Emily Wilkes

And, um, for some reason I thought my sister was needing my help. So I got up out of bed, out of a hospital bed. I had tubes all in me and I ripped them out and was sleepwalking and just was trying to get to my sister. And the next thing I knew, like my grandmother was there in front of me and waking me and, and the nurses were like, you know, putting me back to bed and like sedating me. And, uh,

Chapter 4: How does Emilee define limitless potential in business and life?

420.068 - 447.294 Emily Wilkes

You know, I experienced something... when I passed and I, you know, talked about it when I first came to, and that was a lot of the times explained away, you know, oh, you're experiencing the side effects of medication, heavily, heavily medicated. And, um, you know, you are experiencing trauma, people who have trauma, like see things.

0

447.394 - 476.801 Emily Wilkes

And, um, it was kind of explained away to me, but I feel like that was like for me, one of my first experiences with God and that kind of the afterlife. And I was a little embarrassed to admit it for a long time. But yeah, I know that God saved my life for a purpose and he basically been chasing after me ever since. And I didn't become a Christian actually until about nine years ago.

0

477.582 - 481.326 Emily Wilkes

And that's when my life got really good. So yeah.

0

482.318 - 500.155 Ray Gutierrez

Was there a moment a doctor walked in and gave you the statistics and go, if it wasn't for you sitting here, your entire family would not be... Like, you took the blunt of this force. Something tells me that if it wasn't for you calculatedly sitting in that moment to take that impact, your entire family would not be here.

0

500.756 - 511.561 Emily Wilkes

You know... If I was in the seat or not in the seat, I don't know statistically what would have come of my family. You know, my sister maybe would have been a little more injured. She was the one directly next to me.

511.581 - 518.088 Ray Gutierrez

I guess what I'm trying to rely on, what I'm trying to land on is that you took the blunt force for a reason.

518.909 - 528.54 Emily Wilkes

I think that I had to die before I could live. There you go. That's kind of what you're getting at is like who knows who I would have been as a person or been shaped into.

528.56 - 528.88 Georgie Crawford

Sure.

528.86 - 547.244 Emily Wilkes

Um, I had to overcome a mental battle with what I feel like was demons. And, um, now my mind is stronger than ever. And I had that at a very young age happened to me. And now, you know, I, like I said, I feel limitless.

Chapter 5: What strategies does Emilee use to help business owners scale their companies?

700.225 - 700.465 Emily Wilkes

So.

0

701.069 - 717.846 Ray Gutierrez

Some folks that are entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, witchpreneurs, they all have their secret powers. Your power is seeing the other side or at least feeling the other side. What do you think you came back with? What knowledge, what divine download kind of gave you the upper hand to do what you do so well today?

0

718.079 - 740.627 Emily Wilkes

You know, I think God reveals his secrets to those that he trusts in and that trust in him. Sure. And he's always been there for me, whether you want to call it like an intuition or some type of feeling or something. I feel like it's the guidance there, that connection that I have. And not to say that you need to die to get that, but I think that...

0

740.607 - 757.796 Emily Wilkes

You know, coming from my life and I don't come from a religious background. None of my family is Christian. So to go from that to where I am today, you know, like not to say that that needed to happen, but God used it to become close to me.

0

758.176 - 775.611 Ray Gutierrez

I was just going to say, yeah, I was just going to say that. Either God's a magician, a musician, or a comedian, but there's always a divine path, a divine plan. Can you talk to folks that don't quite see through the darkness and they need to hear that some light for someone that has actually stepped into the darkness and pulled out?

776.973 - 802.575 Emily Wilkes

Yeah, being in the darkness is hard. And things best are in the darkness. And that's, I think, the number one thing that keeps you there is not talking about it or sharing it with others. Bringing things to the light is what will set you free. There's freedom in words and sharing and connecting with others. And when you feel...

802.555 - 821.914 Emily Wilkes

isolated and alone and like you're the only one this is happening to or like a victim, then that's when you can become overpowered. Oh, yeah. You know, the connection is what with others and with God keeps you from being overrun.

821.954 - 823.016 Ray Gutierrez

For sure.

823.237 - 823.838 Emily Wilkes

So...

Chapter 6: How does Emilee's faith influence her approach to personal and professional growth?

948.917 - 955.704 Emily Wilkes

I do post on there quite often or sometimes I'll go live on Instagram, Facebook. You know, I have a Twitter account.

0

956.265 - 956.685 Ray Gutierrez

Right on.

0

956.745 - 981.022 Emily Wilkes

So, yeah, if you want to follow me, you sure can. It's it's an interesting we do a lot of fun stuff. I live the farm life, though, like I have an acre of land and I have chickens and goats and, you know, turkeys and. My four children, sometimes they act like animals, they're great, they're real feral, but they're gonna be unstoppable. I very much take that into my parenting life.

0

981.043 - 1005.615 Emily Wilkes

I don't wanna stifle my children. Sometimes I have to tell them no for their own protection. My four-year-old, I feel like he knows how to do more than most 10-year-olds. He's great. My 14-year-old, he works with my husband in his business and has a lot of ambitions to be his own business owner one day. Yeah, they're great. My daughter, she's the kindest little cheerleader.

0

1005.675 - 1015.627 Emily Wilkes

She's just, you're the greatest, Mommy. You're the prettiest, Mommy. I love her. She got the... the character award for kindness and love in school. So.

1015.807 - 1016.207 Ray Gutierrez

Amazing.

1016.587 - 1041.913 Emily Wilkes

Yeah. I just, my day to day is them and, and helping as many people as I can, whether that's, you know, day to day life, helping somebody or even in business, because I really do feel like small business ownership is very important, um, here in America and across the world. Like it helps us connect to each other and be proud and just have a sense of community. So.

1042.18 - 1046.128 Ray Gutierrez

Yeah, I lived in Switzerland for a year. It takes about six months to start an LLC there.

1046.509 - 1046.87 Emily Wilkes

Oh, wow.

Chapter 7: What are the common challenges entrepreneurs face according to Emilee?

1240.144 - 1241.046 Georgie Crawford

Right on.

0

1241.066 - 1246.557 Emily Wilkes

You know, that saying, like, you can lead a man to the water and give him a fish, but if you teach him to fish, like.

0

1247.339 - 1248.441 Ray Gutierrez

There's also like a horse in there.

0

1248.581 - 1275.196 Emily Wilkes

Yeah, there's a horse somewhere, like. You know, lead a horse to water is a demand. I don't remember, but you know, you give a man a fish or you teach him to fish. And it's like, if you can get somebody in the mindset of problem solving. So on average, an average human being will spend one hour of the day thinking about solutions or the future. The rest of it is present time or past problems.

0

1275.697 - 1294.556 Emily Wilkes

An entrepreneur or somebody with a solution mindset actually spends six to eight hours a day on that. That's six times more than the average person. So it is a way of thinking. It is something you can train somebody to do. having somebody who knows how to do it, it's called yoking.

1295.156 - 1318.36 Emily Wilkes

Back in the day, they used to take an old ox that could plow the field and they'd put it with a young ox and they'd yoke them together so that the old bull could teach or the old ox could teach the new ox how to plow the field properly. And it's something that's a little bit lost in our culture. We think, again, I should just be able to figure it out by myself and trial and fail and, you know, and

1318.34 - 1338.022 Emily Wilkes

there can be a lot of lost time and a lot of lost productivity and efficiency loss with that method. Whereas as a consultant, as somebody who has a solution mindset, a different way of thinking, we can help train somebody to do that. Even myself, I never stop learning. I still do training.

1338.783 - 1355.817 Emily Wilkes

When I get back from here, back to Idaho, I'm flying in a coach to come see me to teach me how to do more things, like how to be a better executive and how to get more results for my people and then train them and so on and so forth. That's kind of what's different about our approach.

1355.917 - 1363.044 Emily Wilkes

I definitely don't know everything and I definitely can't do everything by myself, but I'm going to keep learning and growing every single day until I can.

Chapter 8: How can listeners connect with Emilee Wilks and learn more about her work?

1622.558 - 1628.925 Ray Gutierrez
