The Dummy Tax That Built Me

In today’s episode, I share how losing everything taught me to ask for help, rebuild through faith, and turn every mistake into fuel for a bigger mission.

In today’s episode, I’m sharing the mistakes, red flags, and hard-earned lessons that shaped who I am today. I talk about growing up with a single mom, building wealth, losing over $100 million, filing bankruptcy, and realizing that my greatest setbacks were actually protecting, promoting, loving, and perfecting me. I break down the “dummy tax” I paid, the warning signs I ignored, and why asking for help is one of the greatest gifts we can give others. I also share how faith, forgiveness, gratitude, sleep, and consistency help us stop interfering with the potential already within us.
