Hey , how's it going , D ? How

0:56

are you feeling ? How

1:13

are you feeling , man

1:21

? Well , pretty much . Let me

1:23

just take a step back before I jump all the way into

1:26

it . My life can soar , and it's

1:28

only just a life coach . I just call it

1:30

a life consultant because I feel I do more

1:32

than just coach people , right ? So

1:34

that's the reason I changed the whole narrative

1:36

around life coaching to a degree . Okay

1:39

, but the real reason why I do

1:41

being a life coach is because I

1:43

got one myself . Okay , just

1:46

after working with you , and pretty

1:48

much , let me see how . I said

1:50

just to tell you how that journey went . It

1:52

was just I started off , you

1:54

know , basically he was coaching me , but

1:57

then I started to see like pretty

1:59

much some of the gifts and things that I had in

2:01

just talking to people . Right , he

2:04

went ahead and just told me like man , I'm gonna just

2:06

go ahead and convert you over to being a coach . We're

2:08

not even gonna , we ain't even gonna play

2:10

with it . You a coach , you build

2:13

, build like a coach , you talk like a

2:15

coach , I'm gonna show you how to coach . Okay

2:17

, and then , to a degree , guy

2:19

just dropped it in my lap , so I took it around with it , right

2:22

? See , it's perfect . It's crazy how that kind of

2:24

just bring people to all lives that are in a

2:26

lot of richer goals . Yes

2:28

, all right . So

2:30

I guess that's the first question . So

2:32

how do you feel having the life coach is important

2:34

, man

2:36

, having a life

2:38

coach , I would say a real reason why it's

2:40

important is because they literally help

2:42

guide you to work . Let

2:45

me see how I said whatever and

2:47

wherever you trying to go , the

2:50

reason I said that way is because , like

2:53

for me , in the style that I used

2:55

to help people and , you know , guide them , first

2:57

thing I do is I help to change their mindset . That's

3:00

why that is the right minds Right

3:02

. If you don't have the right mindset

3:04

to a degree , you're not

3:07

going to be prepared to accomplish anything

3:09

. You're not keep starting

3:11

to stop it , it just all

3:13

the little things . So it's like once you change

3:15

that mindset into like

3:17

I'm going to just keep going , no matter what Right

3:20

They'll look , that man , you'll

3:22

take off . So , yeah

3:25

, I think about getting a life coach myself

3:27

because , just based on what you are , short dialogue

3:29

is like okay , just use that direction

3:31

and in the area that you're in , and

3:33

it's like what are the signs , you think we can do it

3:35

ourselves and it's

3:37

like , oh , I'm superman , I can do this , I can do this . But

3:40

it's like you're going to spend your wills and do the same

3:42

habits . And

3:44

the one thing I tell people is , if

3:47

you're not willing to invest in yourself first

3:49

and foremost , it's really

3:51

no reason to start a business , because

3:53

that's all a business is constantly

3:55

investing in your own education or

3:58

basically just the

4:00

things that you believe in , and building that

4:03

business . You can't pull from the empty cup

4:05

. Right , exactly

4:07

, exactly , okay , cool , perfect

4:10

, well , let's see . So what ? What

4:12

changed have you noticed within

4:14

yourself since beginning your journey , man

4:17

? The one change , like

4:20

the number one is I

4:22

let me see , I say , well

4:25

, I attack my abandonment issues head on

4:27

, man preach . So

4:30

the reason I say that is because

4:32

I grew up without a father . Okay

4:35

, but to

4:37

a degree I still had men

4:39

that were , that

4:41

were father , father

4:44

figure , maternity , that's how I'll say it . Okay

4:46

, I understand , because I

4:48

didn't have my actual father there . It

4:51

was like I was blind to that fact , right

4:54

, but then as I got , I

4:56

started to pay attention to some of the things that they

4:58

taught me , and then just also

5:00

going back and apologizing to most of

5:03

the men that was in my life and telling them like I'm

5:05

sorry for how I treated you , like I was

5:07

just to a degree , I was on my own

5:09

journey and I had to try to figure things

5:11

out . I'm like that led

5:13

me right back to where I you know where

5:15

I should have been listening to you . Right

5:17

, see , there's an old quote this

5:20

is which on address , which I'll let you address . So

5:22

it's like keep experiencing exact same things , right

5:24

, man , exactly . So

5:27

it was like pretty much . See

5:30

, like running into my band of

5:33

issues is literally what led to me

5:35

getting a life coach . Okay , because

5:37

, like , literally , he was sitting there . Well

5:39

, how it all happened was my mentor

5:42

introduced me to him . It

5:44

was basically we was having a business meeting . He

5:47

was just there explaining basically

5:50

how to understand people's behaviors

5:52

. That's kind of interesting

5:55

. He

5:57

started to want to like ask everybody around the

5:59

room questions , but everybody was scared . So

6:01

some just told me like , answer the questions

6:04

. So I started to ask questions and

6:07

, like I'll say

6:09

, 30 minutes after the meet , well , 30

6:11

minutes after him asked me all these

6:13

questions , the meeting was over and I caught him in the hallway

6:15

and I'm like man , how much do you charge

6:17

? He told me price

6:20

and I was like all right , cool . I'm like what can we start ? So

6:23

we ended up starting , I

6:25

want to say a week after , but

6:27

it was like a weekend to it . It

6:30

like basically those abandonment issues started

6:32

knocking right at the door . And

6:34

he was like man , you seem like a you know

6:36

, a real confident individual Like

6:39

you , seem like you got everything together , but what's

6:41

what's really holding you back ? I'm

6:45

like I'm sitting there and I'm like I

6:47

don't know . I'm like that's all with you . He was like

6:49

no , but you know it . But in order for

6:51

you to conquer that , you got to say it . And

6:54

I'm like what do you review ? Yeah

6:57

, and it was like I'm sitting there and I'm trying to figure

6:59

it out , like what is it ? What is it ? And the

7:01

first thing that popped in my head and it was like God

7:03

speaking to me was like you like

7:06

guidance , man , goodness

7:08

, when I said that

7:10

to him , he was like was your father in your life ? I'm like , he

7:12

was like that's why you feel like you

7:14

like guidance . He was like but the

7:16

thing is , to a degree , that's a

7:18

fear that's tugging on your back shoes

7:20

. It didn't mean he'll just start

7:23

going down the rabbit hole of me having abandonment

7:25

issues . He just got to explain

7:27

and everything to me because , well

7:30

, my life coach his name is Ricardo Brown

7:32

and he , what it was , was

7:34

when I met him at the moment he

7:36

was a a

7:38

substance abuse counselor , but he was also

7:40

on the side . When

7:43

I met him he was like a lot of the things

7:45

that you see during having

7:47

those substance

7:50

abuse sessions . You see it , well

7:53

, it's just , you might not use

7:55

drugs to suppress , you might use

7:57

a different avenue , right . And

7:59

when he got to explain it and I'm like , oh , they

8:02

met . That makes sense , because for

8:05

a long time I felt that I lack guidance

8:07

. I stay like a quiet individual

8:09

mind in my business , read books , and

8:12

they were like I didn't speak unless

8:14

I had a reason to speak , right

8:16

. But pretty much like after working with

8:18

him and he's showing me like these abandonment

8:21

issues and I had to attack him head on , like

8:23

it just started , like

8:25

a whole bunch things started to transpire

8:28

like one thing after another , and

8:30

I think I know it's like like

8:32

now I'm speaking with you , I just

8:34

got speaking engagement

8:36

on Alabama , okay . So so

8:40

, yeah , it was like after I , basically

8:42

after I let that fear go or started

8:44

to address that abandonment issue and

8:47

I was like doors just start opening . I'm like you know

8:49

what ? Let's keep

8:52

on , let's keep attacking these fears and

8:55

I'm like to piggyback off what you're saying

8:57

. That's crazy . She mentioned that story

8:59

because I ended up seeing the therapist , also a

9:01

black man , his name is

9:04

a J Barnett , and I'll start with me on . Like a dream

9:06

, I was like I was on a cruise ship , like

9:10

a green snake jumped up the sky very weird

9:12

and I was running , I was running , running , running and

9:15

then I turned to the left quarter , the right quarter

9:17

, and then I opened the door

9:19

and it ended up seeing my mom and her most wonderful state

9:21

. She ended up passing away from cancer and

9:24

ever since then it was like I tried

9:26

to suppress the memory of her , to

9:29

not recreate the pain . And

9:31

ever since then , bro , I was able to get

9:33

to the root of a lot of things . You try to use other things

9:36

around you , be women or

9:38

social image in order to try

9:40

to combat your vulnerability

9:43

. And I realized things weren't working

9:45

out for me because I wasn't being my true , authentic

9:47

self and I

9:50

didn't start to see the blessings and

9:52

like the little sign until the champion mindset

9:54

. He told me to switch my lens from a trauma lens

9:56

to a healing lens and

9:58

ever since I did that , bro , literally opportunities

10:01

been coming , coming at me left and right . It was

10:03

like you said , man , and that's

10:06

the exact thing that happened to me

10:08

. It was like the way that I explain

10:10

it to my wife is I tell her like , uh

10:12

, because because I lack that guidance

10:14

to a degree I had a fear of

10:16

family . My God , the ear

10:18

touch is like , oh , my goodness

10:21

. So it was like I had that fear

10:23

of family . And then it was like it

10:25

was just one day , like , to be honest with

10:27

you , it was the same day that I met my life coach . I

10:29

woke up and I told my wife that day . I

10:32

told her I'm like , uh , I'm

10:34

like you know what I want to fail . And she , like what

10:36

you mean ? I'm

10:39

like I want to get out here and fail because if I

10:41

don't fail , then I don't learn the lessons of

10:43

success . Can you say that one more time , please

10:45

, for the listeners , please , one more time . So

10:47

what it is is if you don't fail

10:50

, you don't learn the lessons of success

10:52

. Man , a lot of times

10:54

we're tied , man , if you fail . Don't do that . Why

10:56

don't you think you're going to fail man life's

10:58

over if you fail ? The thing is what you're talking about

11:00

failing forward , using that failure as

11:02

a stepping stone to your highest version

11:04

of yourself . Exactly

11:06

Because that like , literally , it's

11:09

like the thing that I tell a lot of like my

11:11

clients and a lot of people I speak to , just

11:13

when I run to them in the street . They ask

11:15

me , like man , what you know , what

11:17

did you do to change your mindset ? I'm like , the one

11:19

thing that I learned was old

11:22

keys don't unlock new doors . Come

11:24

on , man , come on . So it's

11:26

like , after learning that

11:28

, it was like I'm like

11:30

, okay , so I've been doing something

11:32

right because I'm 26 . So

11:35

I've been doing something right for 26

11:37

years because I'm still here , right , you've been statistics

11:39

. You know what I'm saying . Yeah , I'm like is

11:41

the age of usually don't make it . You

11:44

know what I'm saying . So , and then it's

11:46

like the environment that I'm in , like , really

11:49

, because I'm from Flint , michigan . So it's like

11:51

the environment here , systems

11:53

, yeah , exactly

11:55

, it's like the environment here is crazy

11:58

sometimes . So it's like , like

12:00

you said , you don't really like you

12:02

see people grow to old age , but sometimes

12:04

you , a lot of people , don't get that opportunity

12:06

, right . So it's like for

12:09

me to be here . It's like , okay

12:12

, it's something more to life than me just going to work

12:14

this job every day , yeah , yeah

12:17

, it's like that's playing it safe in my mind , right

12:20

. So it's like once I

12:22

met my , once I met my mentor , that's what

12:24

really started it . Well , let me , let me

12:26

take a step back , okay . Okay , once I

12:28

met my wife , man , okay

12:30

, that's what started it for me , that's

12:33

what started to change my mindset , because she

12:35

was the first person ever , like I

12:38

had been out of the state of Michigan

12:40

and everything I

12:43

haven't never where for like a long period

12:45

of time . Her mother was

12:47

the first , like individuals

12:49

, to take me on the trip . Okay

12:51

, like it's all fun . We went

12:53

to Florida , okay , but

12:56

then it was like typically

12:58

, like for me it would be we're going one trip

13:00

a year , type stuff , but it'll be like family reunion

13:02

states , like that . So it's like headed

13:05

to places with them . It

13:07

was like this was all in one

13:09

year and this was like the second year we had been

13:11

again . We went to

13:13

Florida , went to Chicago

13:15

, man exposure , man

13:17

went to Holly , michigan , then

13:20

went to Florida again and

13:23

I'm like I'm sitting here , I'm

13:26

like dude , hi , it's

13:29

nine to five every single day , you don't mean , and it's

13:31

like it's dictating your whole time and your whole

13:33

life and it's all your energy is going into that

13:35

instead of expanding your mind . Exactly

13:38

so it's like seeing all these new things . I'm

13:41

like this was like man , I want more . I

13:44

want more . I

13:47

want to say what I ended up doing was I basically

13:49

I was working at a job where I was making

13:51

good money . I ended up

13:53

switching that job to that . That was kind of

13:55

like part time , but it would . I could work

13:57

until full time position . So

14:00

I was a temp at a general motors Okay

14:02

. So I quit

14:04

my one job to work at general motors , but it

14:06

was like for a part time position

14:09

. What ended up happening was I met my mentor . He's

14:13

a , he's a , he's a , he's a , he's a , he's a , he's a , he's a , he's a , he's a mentor

14:15

. And

14:18

I met him as a Lonsie Ratley . So

14:20

he started teaching me about real estate and this is an opportunity

14:22

. So I started working with him

14:25

and then on they Probably

14:30

like a year , and it was like a year

14:32

and two months later . That's when I met my

14:35

, my life coach and it was like man , it's just life been

14:37

going up ever since then . So , like you said , once I had

14:40

that exposure , those was the new keys and

14:42

it was like there was some different like in turn afforded to within

14:44

yourself to spark that change and that drive

14:46

and create some , some new , new

14:49

ideas and just a new vision for yourself

14:51

. Yeah , so it was like that . It

14:54

was like just all of that happened

14:56

in such a short period of time . It

14:58

was like man , these

15:00

are like like , literally

15:03

these was the new keys changing my life

15:05

. Oh my gosh , man . I was just

15:07

sitting there . I'm like

15:09

dude . I'm like so much as changed . And then it was

15:11

as everything kept changing . It was like I

15:13

started to pick up a more positive

15:15

attitude towards things . It was just

15:17

I started to see how I was benefiting

15:20

everybody around my life from

15:22

being a more positive . They're benefiting from

15:24

the crumbs that you're putting in yourself . Oh my goodness

15:26

. So it was like , once that started to happen

15:29

, I'm like man . I'm like I got to

15:31

be a coach because I'm like

15:33

I got to help somebody else . That was where

15:36

I was at Do the same exact thing , cause

15:40

I'm like . It's literally like when I figured it out . Yeah , I'm not like

15:42

, I figured this out probably last year . Right

15:44

, I really started taking coaching serious . I'm

15:48

like man , I'm like it's literally a mind shift away , right

15:50

, like if you stop looking

15:53

in the negative direction and you look at the positives

15:55

, yeah , like grateful

15:57

for the little things in life that builds for

15:59

more things to happen . Right

16:07

, and once , once I adapted that mindset , everything

16:09

been up , system , perfect . That's going to

16:12

lead me to the next question . So how do you feel on

16:14

my coaching with a positively effect , minorities , man

16:17

, just Okay , I'm going to say it like this Just

16:20

being off of , like , going off of , we

16:22

can say somewhat statistics , a

16:24

lot of times business with minorities

16:26

, we are in deep , we're in deep , we

16:28

can say somewhat statistics , a

16:33

lot of times business with minorities

16:35

, we are in the . We're in the middle of the middle of the middle

16:37

class , a

16:40

lot of us that lower class level

16:42

. So it's like you being exposed

16:44

to more I want to say more

16:46

negative aspects

17:15

than the positive ones in life . Right

17:18

, like I told you , like is

17:20

what Howell said is we're more

17:22

exposed to the poverty

17:25

mindset , poverty , mentality

17:27

, exactly so , oh

17:29

, no , he can't get them in . No , he trying to get it to me . No

17:32

, no , no , no , no , really , it's all of us to

17:34

eat man . So it's literally

17:36

, like literally

17:38

, how a lot of people think about it is because

17:41

, like I learned this from people way

17:43

back in the days like , let

17:46

me see how I said it . I

17:49

can't help you until

17:51

I got put on or I'm at the

17:54

top of success . It's

17:56

not how it works , because it

17:59

is a lot that goes on from where

18:01

you started to where you at Right

18:04

. It's like you just trying to

18:06

tell somebody how to get there in a microwavable

18:08

version . It's not going to work , it's less authentic

18:11

and you don't have enough gratitude

18:13

in order to get you to the next level , because you got

18:15

to be grateful for each step , exactly

18:18

. So it's like no , what you got to do

18:20

is , to a certain degree , the people who have

18:22

the right mindset , the right energy

18:24

that you want around you . You

18:26

got to help them to see

18:28

the vision , so you can help them

18:31

to the top as you go

18:33

Right . So it's

18:35

like I say all that to say us

18:37

being from that mindset , like you said that crab in

18:39

a barrel mindset . It's like

18:42

, no , you got to let that go . You

18:44

got to let that go in order to see

18:47

, like you said , see more , do more

18:49

, be more . So you

18:51

got like one thing in order to make room

18:53

for another . Exactly

18:55

so it's like if you didn't see nothing

18:57

but negativity all your life , or

19:00

letting go of some of that stuff , like

19:03

some of the little things

19:05

, like the pettiness , being angry

19:07

for no reason

19:09

, paying attention to all the negative

19:11

aspects of life and not being grateful for the positive

19:14

ones . Right , it's like . Change

19:16

that whole mindset right there , man . It's like was your

19:18

whole day bad or was that moment in

19:20

your day bad and it dictated the whole

19:22

rest of your day and your mood for that

19:24

day ? Exactly , and

19:28

that's literally that's how I learned

19:30

, like I learned from other people's perspectives

19:32

and the way that other people do things

19:35

. So it's like , even

19:37

if you do something negative , I

19:39

try to find the positive in what you just did

19:41

. Exactly so

19:43

it's like , even if you don't see it and

19:45

say you make a mistake or you

19:48

do something negative , I end up finding

19:50

, like , what was the underlying lesson ? Take

19:53

that lesson and adapt it to my life to push me

19:55

further towards the success that I'm driving towards

19:57

and that's the premise of my podcast

20:00

is consciousness , chris , you change

20:02

in your level of consciousness and problems , you'll

20:04

be able to find the blessing within it . Yes

20:07

, sir , okay , next question

20:09

so how do you feel like that coaching

20:12

will affect others long term ? Say

20:14

that one more time for me . How do you feel

20:16

on life coaching will affect others

20:19

long term ? Man

20:21

, I feel

20:23

that it will affect people because , well

20:25

, I can speak for the style

20:27

that I am doing Like three

20:30

of the most

20:32

important things that I get a client to see is

20:34

, basically , I

20:36

have them to see their mindset , like

20:39

the way that they're thinking about themselves and they're thinking

20:41

about situations and things like that . Then

20:44

I have you pay attention to your habits . What

20:47

habits are you have

20:49

you develop ? That's not benefiting you . You

20:51

got to remove the , create new ones . And

20:54

then the third thing is I start to

20:56

help people to see basically

20:58

their behaviors and what motivates

21:01

them . Oh , go ahead , I'm

21:05

sorry , like the hidden things behind the

21:07

behavior . I'm back continues Because

21:10

, like , what a lot of people

21:12

don't understand is the things

21:14

that motivate you . Like the things

21:17

that motivate you , that's the same thing

21:19

that creates , like your habits and

21:21

the behaviors that you have . So

21:24

it's like , with those two you have

21:27

to . Let me see how I say it . If

21:29

not where you want to be , you have to change that in

21:32

order to want to be , or

21:34

, as you said , be conscious about it

21:36

. That way , you be more aware , right

21:38

? So it's like , once

21:41

I get a person to conquer

21:43

, all three of those is over . After

21:45

that , like you're going to feel like a whole new person

21:48

, like

21:50

other people tell you , like man , I see the growth in you , I

21:52

see the change . You're glowing , you're looking

21:54

different , you're vibrating , different . What is it ? It's

21:56

internal , like

21:59

. So it's not what's on the outside

22:02

, it's what you feed in the inside . That's

22:05

the whole , that's the whole ideology behind

22:07

Royal Monarchs . I

22:10

really like that . It's

22:12

for the right reason , it's pure intentions and it's

22:15

all about healing people and getting to the best version of me . Not

22:17

all I'm better than him or he's doing better

22:19

than me . No , let me go ahead and run up to

22:21

me versus me . That's

22:24

literally it . When

22:26

she recognized that , it's like wow , I

22:28

almost said we're inside of you and

22:31

if I would just go back

22:33

and replace certain things , it would

22:35

come out differently because of my action

22:37

and my part within me . Exactly

22:40

, it's like , even with

22:42

okay , why ? Because

22:44

what I do is , like I told you , I do the coaching but also

22:46

mentor you on the other end , because

22:49

, like I said , I want people to have that guidance that I did

22:51

so literally

22:53

with them . What I teach them is emotional

22:56

intelligence , conflict . What

23:01

is the emotional intelligence ? Conflict resolution

23:03

, professionalism , and

23:08

it is a four , for that's bad

23:11

. I

23:13

can't remember right now . You're good , but

23:16

no , I was going to say , yes , the emotional intelligence

23:18

, the conflict resolution

23:20

. You're

23:23

going to make me go to my notes . I

23:26

can see it , I'll put it in the show notes . All

23:29

right , it was right on the tip of my tongue

23:31

, but I can't remember it off the top of my head

23:33

. That

23:36

would go it , because I talk to them about it

23:38

all the time and it's like pretty

23:41

much what it is . It's just helping them to be

23:43

, let me see , I said helping

23:46

them to be the individual that I

23:48

know I could have been , and it's like

23:50

the young men that I work with , they

23:52

got the same potential that I do , like

23:55

even at that same page . It's like , yeah

23:57

, man , like I've got to help you . If I don't

23:59

help you , I'm doing your disservice , right , can

24:01

you see it ? Yeah , I'm

24:04

just going to see the next question

24:06

so what would you tell people who

24:08

are afraid of being judged for having a life coach If

24:12

the pride gets in the way ? With

24:15

that , you got to to a degree . You have

24:17

to what I've learned

24:19

to a degree is good

24:21

to have somewhat of

24:23

an ego , but at

24:25

times you got to let go of the negative aspects

24:28

of the ego , like being too

24:30

prideful to ask for help and things of that nature

24:33

, like you said , like allowing

24:35

that ego to eat at you . I'm like well , why do you need

24:37

a life coach ? You don't deserve like nah

24:39

, don't even worry about all that . What

24:42

is what do you want for your life and how

24:45

much success do you want to see in your life ? Yeah

24:47

, you control your own

24:50

reality and once you recognize

24:52

you have that power and that ability , it's like

24:54

okay , so you are the way . I

24:56

guess you are where you are because of the way you think you're

24:59

part of the thoughts

25:01

. So , but let's

25:04

see . Okay , what are some daily

25:06

actions that you take to make sure you prepare

25:08

for your day ? Yeah

25:22

, I was gonna say I'll , yeah

25:24

, but my apologies . I was gonna say here

25:26

, flynn , we got a Comcast and

25:29

they've been having outages in my area , so it's like

25:31

the wifi bit if you . Yeah

25:34

, but I appreciate you working with oh , and

25:36

, of course , I just must have you on

25:38

the show . So thank you for sharing your knowledge

25:40

, your experiences . Oh , it's

25:42

no problem at all . Oh , and I

25:45

did remember what it was

25:47

. You came to me like last second

25:49

. But what it is that I work with with

25:51

is life skills , conflicts

25:54

resolution , emotional intelligence and

25:58

developing resilience . Goodness

26:02

, you see so many fold

26:04

just because of the environment that

26:06

they're in , because they don't

26:08

have that resilience that you're

26:10

saying . And people say , man , I'm

26:12

upset , I'm sorry to man

26:15

, they make me feel this type of way and it's

26:17

like you're aligned to have control over me because

26:19

you're still here . Yeah

26:21

, it's like , literally just

26:23

from teaching them , you know me and that what

26:25

I learned was and this is one thing that my

26:27

life coach taught me , because

26:30

what it is , it's

26:32

like I'm a real nice

26:34

, calm person , but it's like

26:36

once you , if you push

26:38

me to it and you make me flip that switch , then

26:41

I'll be a different person . Right

26:44

, and that's what was . Why do you allow

26:46

somebody to push you that far ? Like , why

26:48

have discipline , control over yourself

26:50

to where you don't even go that far ? When

26:52

he talked that to me one day . I'm like man

26:56

, what ? Why , you know , why don't

26:58

, I See , we allow someone

27:00

to have control over your emotions ? That's like the ultimate

27:03

slavery , yeah . And it's like

27:05

, when I sat back and thought about it , I'm like

27:07

it's my

27:09

environment , right

27:12

, the environment I grew up in . Literally

27:14

what people tell you is , if

27:16

somebody says something to you a certain way , you gotta react

27:19

, you gotta pop off , you gotta pop off , you

27:21

gotta man , you can't play me . I can't

27:23

cuss on the show , but I can't play me like

27:26

I'm a P , you know what I'm saying . Yeah

27:28

, but

27:30

it's like I don't have to react

27:32

to it . Right , if it's

27:34

something that I don't like , I can tell you that I don't

27:37

like it . And then , if you still try to , what

27:40

is it ? If you still try to push

27:42

me at that point In there , yeah

27:44

, I'll just leave , right , what's

27:47

the point of me getting myself in some type

27:49

of trouble ? Right , when I got

27:51

a lot to go after , when it's like

27:53

same breath , you might not

27:55

see yourself that same exact

27:57

way . So at that point , once I recognize

28:00

that in that person , even if you

28:02

try to argue with me , at that point I just here go

28:04

my business card . Man . Yeah , there

28:06

you go . Whenever you got a second

28:08

to cool down , give me a call and we can talk it over

28:10

. Like I don't want no problems with

28:12

you . You're the bigger man at this point , right

28:14

? See , a lot of problems can be solved

28:16

with simple conversations too , like

28:18

it's just usually a misunderstanding on

28:21

one of the parties' parts . Yeah

28:23

, and it's literally . A lot of stuff

28:25

could get solved if communication wasn't such

28:28

a barrier . Even though we speak the same

28:30

language , it's like we don't . How

28:32

people look at it is because we won't come from the same place

28:34

. We're not talking the same way . Like no , we are

28:36

Right . So I guess , are you

28:39

listening to what I'm saying or are you just hearing

28:41

me ? Sure , man , I'm sorry

28:43

One more time please . Yes

28:45

, are you listening to what I'm saying or are

28:47

you hearing me just to hear me ? That's two

28:49

different things , man . I can hear or

28:51

listen to respond instead of listening

28:54

to understand , and a lot of times

28:56

, like you , put their problems onto you because

29:00

they just I'm not much of a . You catch

29:02

what I'm saying . Yeah , like the

29:04

way that I explain that to people is they

29:07

think we are mirrors . So if somebody thinks something

29:09

to you , that's because they see it within themselves

29:11

. Right , oh , my goodness . Yeah

29:14

, it's like , so don't take that , don't

29:16

take it to heart when somebody says something some type

29:18

of way like , say , if you tell a person

29:20

your dreams and they tell you like , no , I don't think you can

29:22

accomplish that . So from the point of view of this

29:24

, yeah , it's like , it's not that they

29:26

don't believe you can accomplish it , it's

29:28

just they don't see it within themselves . So it's like

29:31

, how can you do something that I can't Right

29:33

? I just listened to a podcast on that . It's

29:36

pretty much us saying how to , I guess , ignore

29:38

people's criticism . We're not like constructive

29:41

criticism , but , I guess , fear-based

29:43

criticism . And

29:46

when you kind of take a step back in , look at

29:48

, like I said , the certain experiences you

29:50

have with people that kind of shot your dreams in , it's

29:52

like , okay , that's

29:54

their perspective , they're limited perspectives and

29:57

it's like God tells you they

30:00

haven't told you the person , you can't tell blind people your

30:02

vision . So a lot

30:04

of times you feel like , damn , you're not allowing this . I

30:06

mean , to a certain degree you are , but

30:09

you don't have to keep these perspectives Exactly

30:13

. Well

30:15

, let's see . Next question I'm

30:17

kind of got off topic . Thank you for

30:19

sharing that . So

30:23

how has life coaching been

30:26

in the journey ? You've already discussed that

30:28

. So what signs should be present to

30:31

a person indicating that they need a life coach

30:33

? Well

30:35

, one of the signs is , like

30:38

you just said , if you're allowing other people

30:40

to give you their opinion and

30:43

you take it all in as fact , that's

30:45

one sign that you need a life coach Because , to

30:48

a degree somewhere

30:50

it's

30:52

not you lost it . You might have not developed it

30:54

just yet , but

30:57

either you lack confidence or

30:59

belief in yourself , which is

31:01

the same thing , right . So

31:05

it's like what is it about you

31:07

to where you

31:09

can't even be confident in your own ideas

31:12

? Right , like what is

31:14

it ? Yeah , it's like what

31:17

got you questioning that If you feel

31:19

that way , you need a life coach

31:21

. I'll say that to

31:24

a degree like we didn't express . If

31:26

you haven't , it

31:28

seemed like when you communicate with people , it's

31:31

not they don't understand you , but they're not hearing

31:33

you . What it is is you might need a

31:35

life coach because you need help with

31:37

communication skills , because it might not be . They're

31:39

not hearing you , it might not

31:42

hear . No , because you don't like the response that they give

31:44

you and taking

31:46

everything too personal . And

31:49

then you kind of close up and you shell off and

31:52

then once that event happens automatically

31:54

, it's like you tell somebody tells

31:56

you something , and it's like go

31:58

over your head , you're like man , forget that , you're offended , okay

32:03

. And third , to

32:06

be honest with you , I think this

32:09

is just my own personal perspective

32:11

and even if I was in a life

32:13

coach , I would still feel the same

32:15

way . Everybody needs

32:18

somebody that's going to hold them accountable

32:20

and ability for that

32:22

. Yeah , so like literally with

32:25

being a life consultant , that's

32:28

clearly what I do with a lot of people Like

32:30

you tell me your

32:32

dreams , your ambitions , your goals and

32:34

I just want you to accomplish in that , because

32:38

a lot of times people will say like I want to do this

32:40

, or I'm going to do this , or I'm going to do this , and

32:43

then a month later

32:45

you haven't done nothing . It's like you

32:47

can't do nothing

32:49

. You can't do nothing

32:51

. Yeah , it's like

32:53

having that accountability partner , right

32:56

, okay ? Well , I think it's my next question . So

32:58

what first steps should somebody take to

33:00

find clarity within yourselves ? Well

33:03

, the first step to find clarity

33:06

within yourself is

33:08

not

33:10

isolating yourself , but

33:13

just sometimes sitting in silence

33:15

, because a lot of times

33:17

we move it around so much or

33:19

we're doing so much that we're not even

33:22

paying attention to ourselves , or we're not even paying attention

33:24

to what God is telling us directly , and

33:27

it's like so many signs getting thrown at

33:29

you , but you're just going to be a pastor

33:31

. It's like , no , slow

33:33

down , yeah

33:35

, just slow down . Be

33:37

patient and wait . Right , that

33:43

is so , so true . Can we try to fill ourselves

33:45

with busy work ? Oh , I have this to do or I

33:47

can do this . It's not even conducive to your growth . You're

33:49

just doing it because you feel the angst , like

33:51

, oh , I'm going to be doing something , and then you neglect

33:54

yourself . Which is the most important

33:56

? Essentially , yeah

33:58

, those like , literally

34:00

, with that , right there , are

34:03

you being busy or are you being a product ? Oh

34:06

, that's the question you want to ask yourself in that situation

34:08

. So important

34:10

. So , how important is support

34:13

along someone's journey ? Oh

34:15

, supporting , like support

34:18

, is almost key , because if

34:20

you don't have support , like

34:22

me , come give me one second

34:24

, thank you

34:32

. I'm

34:45

like , yeah , I'm like he

34:47

, he , he get excited when you hear cars

34:49

going by cause he think it's my wife coming home . Oh

34:51

, yeah , I'm like , no , bro , you got . You

34:54

got calm down , see me down , champion

34:56

. Yeah , as

34:58

exactly , I got talked to like God . You got

35:00

chill , man . You got chill Right , but

35:03

I'm sorry . What was your question again ? Oh

35:05

, yeah , no problem . So how

35:07

important is support on a longer journey ? Oh

35:14

, give me one second . My screen keeps messing

35:17

up . All

35:20

right , thinker

35:23

. Okay , we bet the wifi wouldn't mess up on

35:25

me now . Man , they want us to be great today . That's

35:28

the enemy trying to distract us . Now . We won't push

35:30

it . Yeah , got you , but

35:33

support is like key on your journey . But

35:36

it all matters on what type of support

35:38

do you have in your corner ? Cause

35:40

, like all support is

35:42

not actually good support

35:44

for you . The kind of support that

35:46

you want on your journey is people that's aligned

35:49

with what you're trying to

35:51

do , or become Like

35:54

you sort of degree , and

35:57

I had to learn this for myself . If

36:00

you hanging out with people who just want

36:02

to , like , party , have fun all

36:04

day , but you trying to develop a business

36:06

in the same sense , those two do

36:09

not mix . You can't coexist on

36:11

those pants , right ? Yeah , I

36:14

was going to say like . You can't hang out to three o'clock in

36:16

the morning and then get back

36:18

up at six o'clock in the morning for me , Right

36:21

, the girls just don't mix . It's

36:23

not really . Yeah , it's like

36:25

, but now , if you're , if you're busy , if

36:28

you're business , you know you're like

36:30

is that type of lifestyle , they cool

36:32

, but if that's not the type of lifestyle

36:34

that I sustain your business , then it won't

36:36

help or anything

36:38

in life . So it's like the support system

36:41

is like key because it's like on those

36:43

days when you it's

36:45

like we all get down on ourselves

36:47

from time to time but on days when

36:49

you download yourself and everything like that , are

36:52

those people going to be really there to help you

36:54

get up and keep moving and like

36:57

keep that time going , or are

36:59

they going to be like man , let's just party

37:01

and let's just forget about it ? Like , yeah

37:03

, not knowing that

37:05

which address is going to show up at your address

37:07

is going to end up coming up in another

37:10

way , you go , oh crap , I was right

37:12

from that . Now you got to face it at some point

37:14

. Yeah , it's like you got to face

37:16

it and the real reason why you got to face it is so

37:18

you can learn that lesson . Right

37:20

, and sometimes what it is is if

37:23

your support group or the team that you have

37:25

it's not helping you to learn those lessons

37:27

that you've been faced with , like

37:30

with degree . It ain't about

37:32

the workout . I just said plain

37:34

and simple . It's not going to work out . So then you're going to

37:36

have to drop those type of people or that support

37:38

system that's around you to develop a whole

37:40

new one . And it's like

37:42

I just beyond this , which was harder to

37:45

develop that support system in

37:47

the middle of your journey versus the beginning

37:49

. Okay

37:51

, well , let's see . So what comes with someone who find

37:53

themselves along the journey ? I

37:55

know you already mentioned having to

37:57

kind of separate from certain friend groups , but what

38:00

else does you expect from a long journey

38:02

? The other

38:04

thing I'll say that you have to expect is

38:07

I think I hit on

38:09

this earlier Like it's

38:11

going to be times when you got to deal with things by yourself

38:14

. Man

38:16

, so true , it's

38:19

like you're not always going to be able to have people

38:21

in your corner to help you figure things out . Some

38:25

of the things that got us in your way is specifically

38:28

for you . Nobody else Can't

38:30

nobody help you with it . Only thing you can

38:32

do is I'm

38:35

not going to say run into it head on , but

38:38

it's like face the problem , that's a hit

38:40

, pray about it and keep going

38:42

. Learn that

38:44

lesson and take that lesson . Keep going with it

38:47

. The second thing I'll say that

38:49

you'll have to face . You

38:51

just hit on it . Basically

38:53

, you're going to have to remove some things in

38:56

order to acquire some

38:58

things . Like

39:00

you said , certain friend groups . They might not fit in your

39:02

life no more , because

39:05

the time that you have is off . So

39:07

it's like , in order for you to , as

39:10

they say , succeed or keep

39:12

growing , you're going to have to let some people go , because

39:14

if you don't not saying that they're dead

39:17

weight , they'll start to lay you down . Lastly

39:23

, you have to start to change

39:25

your environment . Environment

39:27

is key , because if you don't change your environment , like

39:30

say , did you tell me , if you don't see better

39:32

, you won't do better . So

39:35

true , man , I feel like certain people won't get

39:37

it until they experience it . Like you

39:40

said , you're traveling , you're traveling

39:43

, you're taking some personal trips , you're with

39:45

family . You're not to see it

39:48

. You're like this is possible . Once

39:50

you know something's possible , you're

39:52

like okay , you figure out , you start to constantly

39:54

think of ways to actually acquire it and

39:58

you don't put any more limits on yourself . I

40:00

was going to say that's exactly what happened to you because

40:03

, like , literally , I'll

40:05

just tell you this story real quick Me going down

40:07

to Alabama , with my wife and my

40:09

life coach basically Going

40:12

down there to . I was meeting up with a friend to speak

40:14

engagement Going down there

40:16

. Being transparent , I didn't get

40:18

to speak because the event got

40:20

rained out , but just

40:22

being able to see so many people

40:25

get together and basically

40:27

just in love , like down

40:30

there it was nothing but all

40:32

it was all black people . Well

40:35

, it was 3,500 of them

40:37

. It was on horses and

40:39

I'm like , yeah , I'm like I've never seen

40:41

that before , right , and like

40:43

they literally riding these horses like we

40:45

would get on a bike . Yeah , I

40:49

was like seeing that . But it's like seeing the interaction

40:51

of how people really enjoy each other's

40:53

presence , yeah , their equity

40:56

to other . It was like man . It was so beautiful I almost

40:58

started crying . It was true joy and true bliss

41:00

. Like I was like fake when trafficking

41:02

. It wasn't like oh hey , how are you ? My

41:04

, it was like a genuine love , like internal

41:07

, exactly . It was like no

41:09

, we want to be here because we want to

41:11

see each other . Like , no , it ain't going to

41:13

be no argue and no fighting . I'm like man

41:15

. When I seen that , I'm like dude . I

41:17

have to tell my friend . I'm like bro , I've never seen

41:20

anything like this in my life . I'm

41:22

like , and I just appreciate this moment . And

41:25

he was like no man , you got to get up , you got to speak

41:27

, I'm like . I'm like , if it's meant

41:29

to be , it'll be Right . But

41:32

if that might have not been the reason why I was sitting here

41:34

like God didn't send me down here for that

41:36

reason , see , and that's crazy , see

41:38

, by you even being able to recognize that you could

41:41

have focused on me and my stuff got rained out . I didn't

41:43

get me , I didn't get my shine . That's

41:45

, that would be your ego . But since you're going

41:47

to be a Craig Virgin , you're actually able to see the interaction

41:49

, or interaction with people , to raise

41:51

your level of consciousness with that . Okay

41:54

, and it was like

41:56

just seeing that , like

41:58

, basically , how they say Southern hospitality

42:01

, yeah , like , to a degree

42:03

, I brought that back with , like

42:05

now , I didn't call myself even

42:07

like , walking down the street , just

42:10

stopping the person walking next and , yeah

42:12

, how you doing ? Yeah , like

42:15

, what Do you know me ? What you want

42:17

? Like , yeah , I'm like , oh no , I just want

42:19

to make sure you was all right . I hope you having

42:21

a nice day . I am . You

42:24

see , don't walk away with a smile . You got a smile

42:26

, just contagious . Yeah , so I'm like , yeah , so

42:32

I'm like man , just bringing that

42:34

back with me and spreading that to people . Man

42:36

, it's a whole perspective on a lot of things

42:38

. Okay , well , thank you

42:40

for answering and I'm actually very , very insightful

42:43

. Next

42:45

question is which individuals inspire

42:47

you in , like , the life coaching space

42:49

? Do you have any people who that

42:52

you see on a daily basis that makes you want to be the best

42:54

version of you ? Man

42:56

? The people

42:58

that inspire me on the life coaching base

43:00

? It is one

43:03

of my actual life coach

43:06

, antoine Brown

43:08

. He'll

43:11

well let me know how to say his name

43:13

Mr CSA

43:16

sees it . That's

43:18

what he tells people to do when he work with him in

43:20

life coaching . So

43:22

he'll the

43:24

other person that motivates me in the life coaching

43:26

space David Shans . That's

43:30

crazy , david , I'm seeing my coaching . Yeah , I'm

43:33

like man , even with , like , you know , I'm like , yeah , even with , like just

43:35

seeing , like the way that he teaches

43:38

things Like man , it's

43:40

crazy , it's him

43:42

. Another

43:44

person that they're motivated me is

43:48

we all know

43:50

, et . Oh , yeah , oh man

43:52

, what you want to succeed , I

43:54

guess you'll be successful . Yeah

43:56

, yeah . So

43:59

, and then another guy

44:01

that motivates me is his

44:03

name is Sean Hart . Okay

44:07

, he's basically from Michigan . Well

44:09

, he's not from Michigan . I want

44:11

to say he is from

44:14

New Jersey but he moved to

44:16

Michigan . But he also

44:18

did help me along my journey . Like

44:20

he didn't taught me a lot , of , a lot of things

44:22

that , like to a degree

44:25

, like I never really paid attention to and

44:27

it was just really he helped me on , like the business

44:29

side . So I'll say them four

44:32

, and then the fifth person I'll say is

44:36

my wife . She

44:40

don't know it , but to a degree

44:42

she's a life coach in her own right . Because

44:44

whenever I am

44:46

questioning myself , the first

44:48

person like no , we're not going to do that . It's

44:51

important to have a supportive mate . You know

44:54

, you can help align your own journey , man

44:56

, you get it . It's so important . You don't get that . So

45:00

, like I ain't going to lie , she's like

45:02

number one . Okay , that's

45:04

what I had to say , the best for last . But oh

45:07

, yeah for sure . Because , like I said , whenever

45:09

I'm down on my self-worth , whenever

45:12

I start to question things like man , am I really

45:14

helping this client ? Or am

45:16

I like even when , like

45:18

my content and stuff like that wasn't getting like

45:20

exposure and people wasn't liking it , I

45:23

would ask am

45:26

I making the right kind of content to attract

45:28

the people that I want to help she like

45:30

. But don't worry about that , that's not why you're doing it

45:32

she likes

45:34

. The reason you're doing it is because

45:37

you want to help people , not because

45:39

you want views . Let's get

45:41

that straight . I'm like oh

45:44

, she had to check me right there . I was yeah

45:49

. So I'm like she like , she

45:51

number one for me . Okay

45:54

, if I can ask you

45:56

another question and see so

45:58

what separates your brand from others ? Say

46:01

that again . So what separates your

46:03

brand from others ? The

46:06

thing that separates my brand from others

46:08

is that , like

46:10

I genuinely just

46:14

want to help people . Yeah , like

46:16

that's really what I want to do . It

46:19

was like , even when I first started

46:21

, a lot of people had to tell me

46:24

like it wasn't hard for me

46:26

to understand it , but it

46:28

was . Let me see

46:30

how . I said it

46:32

was hard for me to wrap

46:34

my head around it that you

46:37

have to charge people something , right

46:40

, because it was like , no , I could just

46:42

help . But it was like a lot of times when I was

46:44

helping people , they was taking it for granted because

46:47

they didn't have to invest in themselves . Can

46:49

you please sit down one more time ? Please Sit up one

46:51

more time , please , they'd

46:53

help , for granted they don't have to invest

46:56

in themselves . So

46:58

it's like that's the reason why

47:00

I turn my type of style of life coaching

47:03

into a business . That's why I

47:05

call myself the life consultant , because I just , I

47:07

literally just want to help people get their

47:09

life together or find a

47:12

success that they want , like

47:14

in the same breath with

47:16

me saying that if I

47:18

don't charge you something , you're not going

47:20

to take it serious . Right , it's

47:23

just like if you go to

47:25

the store and

47:27

you see , let

47:29

me see how it says you see a Nike shirt sitting

47:32

on the back and it's free . How

47:35

are you going to treat that Nike shirt ? You're going to go play

47:37

basketball in it ? What I'll

47:39

put it ? Yeah

47:41

, that thing could be in the floor tile , right

47:43

, for a bloody note , honestly , it's right

47:46

, but if somebody

47:48

had to go buy something like what

47:52

is it A Balenciaga

47:54

shirt ? Yeah , or a

47:56

Gucci shirt ? Something name Brent , that's

47:58

very expensive , you're

48:00

not going to do that . It's just like with tennis shoes

48:03

. How do people treat K-Swiss

48:05

? Yeah , like be Jordan's

48:07

or Balenciaga's , like it's

48:10

a difference , right , you're stepping apart of working

48:12

K-Swiss . So

48:14

it's like when me saying that what it is is , in

48:16

order for me to get you to develop

48:19

that type of mindset , to treat yourself

48:21

like an

48:24

asset , I

48:26

have to basically I have to charge

48:29

you some type of price so you can invest in yourself

48:31

. Because I'm not going

48:33

to lie to you , when I first started , I was trying to coach

48:35

everybody . Yeah , but

48:38

it was like , with trying to coach everybody

48:40

, I would have like one or two

48:42

people out of the 10 that I was coaching actually

48:45

like start to develop . The

48:48

other 10 was just like no , I'll

48:50

come back tomorrow because he's going to give me the information

48:53

again . No

48:56

, you can't give me what you're giving . You know what I

48:58

mean ? Yeah , so it's that . And then

49:00

the other thing I was going to say is another

49:03

thing that sets me apart from other

49:05

brands is really what I

49:07

focus on is helping people develop

49:09

that mindset . Like , like

49:12

I told you once before , the real

49:14

reason why you got developed that mindset is

49:17

because if you don't

49:19

believe in yourself , or if

49:21

you don't develop that confidence within yourself

49:23

to go after your vision , nobody

49:25

will go after that thing like you do . So

49:29

you got to make that switch Right . So

49:31

it's like , with me , I've seen everybody coaching people

49:33

. Like I've seen people you know coaching

49:36

people in the health and fitness industry

49:38

. I've seen other life coaches like helping

49:40

people find success . I'm like

49:42

what's the underlying , like , through

49:44

it all , what's the underlying thing

49:46

that you've got to have , no matter what , to

49:49

find success in whatever you want to do ? Right

49:52

, exactly Right . So Well

49:56

, next question is are there any mantras

49:58

that you say to yourself in order to stay focused on

50:00

the journey ? Man

50:04

, the one mantra that

50:06

I'm going to say is like I told you , old

50:09

keys can unlock new doors . That's

50:13

one Another one

50:15

that I tell myself a lot is was

50:18

almost like an affirmation pretty much , but

50:20

I

50:23

am more than yes , even

50:27

for myself . Like you said me

50:30

, having to be vulnerable was

50:33

a big thing for me because I never had that guy

50:35

shown . So then it was like

50:37

when I did start to be vulnerable , it was like

50:39

when I started , because

50:42

I started showing

50:44

it at a young age . So a lot of people like are

50:46

you soft and you this and you that ? Yeah , it's

50:48

like . No , I don't get it . Don't get

50:51

it , it's just , I

50:53

prefer like I'm more , I'm open with myself

50:56

and I want to be open with you

50:58

, just to allow you to see , like that

51:01

, the things that you did hurt my feelings , but

51:04

it did have you like right

51:06

, well , I won't say it had you , it had me as

51:08

, had me feeling as if like

51:10

, maybe it's maybe

51:12

am I not enough to be in people's life

51:15

? Or what it really did from was my abandonment

51:17

, man , I see you

51:19

on that , I see you on that

51:21

. So all that to say yeah , you

51:23

just got to yourself very now , and then now more

51:25

than enough , I don't have to be less

51:28

, I don't have to be more , I'm just the

51:30

yeah I

51:35

was going to

51:37

say . The third one that I got for you is I

51:42

only can control what I can

51:44

control . Anything

51:47

other than that I got let go . So

51:50

, yeah , I noticed along my journey trying to control

51:52

the uncontrollable , straight up , stressing yourself out over

51:55

there , and then you're like man , you're

51:58

missing the whole bus and over here because you focus

52:00

on over here , and

52:02

that's a fact . Okay

52:05

, let me to my closing questions . If

52:07

you could speak to your immigration

52:09

of yourself , what would you say , man

52:12

? What I would

52:14

tell my younger self is

52:16

just

52:20

embrace you , man

52:25

, like that to a degree . Like

52:27

you , not into

52:30

the same things that other people into . It's

52:33

okay to be different . Yeah , like

52:35

that's it . Like you said , it's okay to be

52:37

different , like it's okay to be open

52:39

, it's okay to be vulnerable , it's

52:41

okay to speak your mind , but

52:43

also do it respectfully , to where you don't disrespect

52:46

anybody . Like

52:48

it's okay to be you and

52:51

you don't have to apologize for it . That's

52:54

the one thing . I would tell myself that . And

52:56

the other thing is whatever

53:01

you're looking for , like

53:03

whatever you look for in life , it's

53:05

going to come to you . Don't try to force

53:08

anything . Whatever supposed to be for

53:10

you or meant for you is going to come right

53:12

to you . It's like a magnet . Yeah

53:15

, it's like a version of love . It's like

53:17

automatically . Like dang , I was just thinking

53:19

that and then this partorg , you

53:21

walk past a person and they say something over

53:23

here conversation . It's

53:26

crazy . Yeah , I'm

53:28
