Shownotes Transcript

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Money Mondays. I am very excited about our guests. Typically, this podcast is always inside of an RV motorhome, but we're in Miami. And this guest was just speaking at event after event after event. And so I want to catch her while I can because she's flying all over the planet, promoting her products, building her business, building her brand, and most importantly, empowering women to make more money, which is

is the premise of the Money Mondays. I want us to have discussions about money so we can get past the mental barriers that it's rude to talk about money. We all grew up thinking it's rude. I think it's ridiculous that we don't talk about it. And so I have someone that's perfect to be talking about it because she's exemplifying it. She's built up her career on her own back. She's

fought her way through everything to build up this multi-million dollar empire, where now it's multi-million dollars a month sometimes, sometimes one million dollars in a day. So without further ado, Stormy Wellington, give us the quick two-minute bio so we can get straight to the money. Oh my God, first of all, I'm excited to be here talking about money, and I'm so grateful to be in the presence of someone who's not afraid to get straight to the money talk. So my name is Coach Stormy. Some days they call me Dr. Stormy. I'm

My wealth that I've acquired thus far mainly have come from the industry of network marketing, direct sales, the taboo industry. I'm still in it, actively building. I've recruited over 14,000 people in my company, been there for 10 years. I've coached 139 first-generational millionaires.

And after you become successful at something, maybe should be one thing at first. People want to know, what did you do? How did you do it? So I've created digital products. I've made a million dollars in a day with digital products. I coached 139 first-generation millionaires, but they had to learn the right mindset of what to do, how to do it, system strategies. And so I do events regularly.

I do an event called The Awakening, helping them to wake up their soul, their consciousness, have their conscious interruption that they could be, do, and have anything. And I say that because there's a lot of people that don't believe that they could be, do, and have anything. And that used to be me until I started to believe in myself. Dropped out of school in the 10th grade, high school dropout, teenage mom, ex-stripper, ex-scammer, ex-everything. Now I'm an example that if I can do it, you can do it too. I love it.

So on the Money Mondays we cover three core topics: how to make money, how to invest money, and how to donate to charity. Let's talk about the make money side. Talk to us, why do people have the theory that network marketing has something taboo about it when you've been able to empower so many women and men to make more money?

I think because they had not reconditioned their mind, they still believe that it's a pyramid scheme because there was a time when there were pyramid schemes, you know, and I think they just didn't separate the difference of what's happening. What's the difference between this pyramid scheme and network marketing? Pyramid schemes is when you pay for something and you get nothing in return. That's just the bottom line. You give money with the promise of getting more money or you give money with the promise of something that is not tangible.

And network marketing is physical products, it's services, it's products. Like I distribute detox teas, energy supplements, weight loss supplements, coffees. I've been doing it in my company now for over a decade. I've made over $51 million in earned income in network marketing. And I pay taxes in network marketing. If it was a scam, you wouldn't be paying no IRS. So I pay taxes.

And I just think that people just have poor information. And I think that right now network marketing is one of the greatest ways to get started. Jim Rohn was a network marketer. Donald Trump was a network marketer. So I think that people don't know what it is. If they knew what it was, it's affordable. I started in my company now with $1,500.

My first two months, I made $135,000 cash. My first week, I made $50,000. Where can you start a business with $1,500 and make $50,000 in a week and not go to jail because you got caught with some drugs or something, right? So I just think it's lack of understanding, poor examples. There's not enough of us speaking up about it more. And that's why I made a decision that it's my responsibility to speak up about it more because people should know about it. And then...

A lot of people are not educated. They don't know business. In network marketing, you get a mentor, you get a coach. It's like a simple way to get rich. So I just think poor information, and that's why I want to make sure that I spread the message because I know there's a lot of people out there, especially with the change in the economy right now, that's looking for something, and network marketing could be it. So talk to the 18-year-old, Stormy.

The 18-year-old Stormi, she's just getting out of high school. She's trying to figure out life. What would you do to help fast-forward her success and hold her back from some of the things that could hurt her along the way? So first of all, when I was 18, I'll tell you something that I know to be true to this day, and I'm 45.

You become who you hang around. You become who you hang around. And some of us grew up in environments that we can't get out of. Like our moms and our dads paid the bills. So I grew up in an environment where all I saw, like all I saw was black people selling drugs, stripping, scheming, scamming. I knew what a key of cocaine looked like before I was even 10. So I grew up in an environment of a fast-paced life. Nobody was...

investing in businesses or going to college. I dropped out of school in the 10th grade and that wasn't like abnormal. That wasn't like I was the black sheep of the family. That was like, she's doing what we do. They're not surprised.

So 18-year-old Stormi just didn't know that I had to change my circle, get around the right people that's not still, not still hating, not still broke, not still scared or afraid, but get around people that's moving. I didn't know that you could think and grow rich literally. I read that book at 18. I read Think and Grow Rich at 18 from cover to cover. So if I had to go back and talk to 18-year-old Stormi, I would say keep going and keep growing.

And to be mindful of the story that you tell yourself, because, you know, I heard a story years ago that there was a drunk, a drunk man that found out that his brother wasn't drunk. He was a drunk, just a drunk. But his brother wasn't drunk. And they're like, OK, why are you an alcoholic? Why are you a drunk? And he goes, because my father was a drunk. And then one that wasn't an alcoholic that didn't even know his brother was a drunk because he became estranged.

change. Why are you not an alcoholic? Because my father was one. Wow. So it's basically, you know, you decide what to do with the story, you know? So 18 year old Stormy, keep going, keep growing and be careful of the story you tell yourself. So in network marketing, just like almost all industries, there's some people that make zero money, a little bit of money, medium money. And then there's some people that are shining stars like you. Talk us through what can someone do to stand out from the crowd and go make real money in their industry?

So first of all, I just left a speaking engagement and I showed up just like this. And it's funny because I talked about you today. I was telling them how I was around some very successful people, Dan Fleshman. I was just telling them about my environments and y'all dressed like this.

um, like this. And I said, I knew that I was coming into an environment that y'all was going to be dressed like this. And they all had on suits. And I'm like, no disrespect. Y'all look great. But I, I purposely dressed like this because I wanted to be disruptive. I wanted to come into Rome and make you say, um,

Who is she? She doesn't. Why has she got all these tattoos? Why is she? So in network marketing or any business, it's so many people doing what you're doing. I mean, I don't care what you may be doing that you think you're the only one. There's lots of people doing what you're doing. I think, number one, be disruptive.

Find a way to disrupt your market. I don't care what you do. It may be something that you may be embarrassed to do, something that may not be normal for you, but do something in your industry that makes people want to know who the hell is that. Like Grant Cardone specializes in that. He loves when you talk shit about him. Like you don't care. He is disruptive.

And look at where he is now. So I was disruptive in network marketing. I was the first one to not wear suits to the meeting. I was the first one to show a little cleavage. I didn't know women had cleavage in network marketing. Everybody was suited and booted, especially the companies that I was in. I didn't see sexy. You could be in weight loss, and I didn't see sexy. You could be in a business that sells transformation, and you still fat. So I think that you've got to be disruptive. That's one thing that separates me.

mentors, coaches. I just told a woman today, she worked for the government for 36 years. They basically told her, basically resign now,

Four years before your retirement, take the $25,000 or if we fire you, you don't get no pension. You just kind of go crazy. And I said to her something very special that I'll tell you all today. I said, you've been doing that for 36 years. You're going to wake up one day within the next week and ask yourself, who the hell am I? You're not going to know what to do because you've been doing this for 36 years.

So in order for you to change, I said no disrespect and I'm not trying to speak nothing negative in your life. I'm actually telling you be grateful for our relationship because you're going to need help. A mentor, a book, a coach, somebody's going to have to help you to have a new life. So in network marketing, go find the successful person in your company, even if you can't meet them, even if you can't talk to them because in network marketing or most businesses, it's earned. I

I wouldn't be sitting next to you if I just knew how to take cute pictures and was an influencer. No, I earned the right to sit next to you. So in network marketing and in most businesses, I think we forget that. In network marketing especially, everything is to be earned. You have to earn respect. You have to earn proximity. So in network marketing, what I also love is that success leaves clues. Every top earner has videos, CDs, YouTube videos, events.

because you're never going to be successful for a long time if you don't leave behind things for duplication. So also on the make money side and let's call it network marketing space, they're hosting events, sometimes at their house, sometimes a local ballroom. They're posting on social media. They're going to speak at events. How do they wake up in the morning and get excited to make sure they can push through to stand out from the crowd?

First of all, I teach people that they have to have a life system. I met a guy at the 100 million man mastermind. I had 100 million men. The 100 million, it feel like men because there'd be a lot of men. I got a lot of women there too. You do. You're one of the only that I must say, you have more women than any. I got to tell you that. Me and Vina was talking about it. We're going to bring more. Please.

powerful women that bring something to the table. And the guy, long story short, he was like listening to my story and he goes, you're consistent. You're very consistent. And I didn't even tell him nothing to make him think I was consistent. And I'm like, I'm so excited. Like, how do you know that? Like, you know me, you must be following me. You must be, no. And he goes, no, because of who you used to be and who you are today, there's no way, no way possible you could change your life from this

Section A, full stamp, high school dropout to who you are today without consistency.

So as an entrepreneur, as a network marketer, anybody, I don't care who you are, if you want to change your life, you have to find what is that winning formula and you have to consistently be a representation of it. Every single day. Like, I don't care how you feel. Success is not about what you feel like. I wake up every single morning, Dan, I could be sad, mad, depressed, and I tell myself, get your ass up. How do you feel today? Oh, you feel bad? Oh, well, too bad, too bad for you. You still got to get up.

And those are the days that I feel even more powerful because that's when you break through, when you make yourself do the thing that you know that you have to do to get to where it is that you desire to get to. So I think that when you have that burning desire and you come up with a formula. So I wake up like really the same time every day. I wake up about 6 a.m.

I have full custody of my son. I won that custody battle. Thank God. Um, I asked myself, how am I doing every morning? I check in. Okay, God, thank you for waking me up all day. And I go to Instagram quick. I'm not gonna lie. I go to Coinbase and I go to Instagram. Uh,

And then I go to my email sometimes, right? And then I go in there with my son and I mess with him. I have him reading the Bible now every morning because I want him to learn the word. So we go through our mornings. We hug. We pray. We go through the Bible. I help him to get ready. And then I take supplements. I take supplements. I realize that the foods that we eat is not like the foods we used to eat back in the days. So I find nourishment. I take my NutriBurst. I take my NRG. I drink my coffee. And I'm a meditator.

I meditate every single day. I meditate in the back of my car sometimes. I meditate with hundreds of women every morning, Monday through Saturday. So every morning you have to make a decision to wake your worry up regardless of how you feel. And now when people used to text me, good morning, Rich Rising. You know what I text people back in the mornings? God morning. Give yourself a God morning every day because how you feel in the morning, it

It has a lot to do with how you start to feel throughout the day. If you have a low vibration in the morning, you're going to have a low vibration in the day. So it's about just being consistent and finding that formula that you can stay committed to beyond your comfort zone to get the results.

So now on the investing side, so you've been making money, you're building your business, you're building a career, people start making money. So they start making a couple hundred thousand dollars, like, okay, I want to actually start investing in some things. How do you decide what to invest into when you've got so many options? Cryptocurrency, real estate, investments, your friend's hair salon, your friend's restaurant, your friend's business, your friend's clothing line. How do you decide when it's time to actually start throwing some money into other things outside of your core business?

Wow. So, I mean, for me, I'm one of those network marketers that went broke in network marketing. So I've been in the game for 16 years now. So I'm not no baby. So I've had the ups and down, the peaks and the valleys. So I've already went through driving a Bentley and a Rolls Royce, you know, my name and lights and on buses and billboards. And then I can't even pay my rent. So I've already went through that. I think everybody get one good, rich, broke run.

And once you experience what going up and then going down feels like, ooh, it's a different feeling. So I got that out the way. So now the new version of me, like I'm very mindful. I don't loan money. I have a no loan policy, like no loan. If you really get me there and you just break me so good, it comes with collateral.

So I've really like done really well within the last few years to not attract loan policy. Nobody asked me to borrow money. I've given away lots of money for my friends to start businesses. Not only did they not pay me back, the business never started. So I was like, what did I really give you money for? So I don't I don't invest in a little salons and all of that stuff.

Yesterday, you taught me something. I wrote it down about the business plan and your financials. I typed it in my notes, the three things. Because people do come to me now with a lot of investment opportunities. And some of them, I really be like, I like that. But I don't know what to do. I really didn't know, do I send anybody to my attorney? Then my attorney's so abrasive, she scares them off. Exactly. Like, what do I do? So really, those three things you taught at the Mastermind yesterday. That's why y'all get in the Masterminds.

For real, that right there, I believe is going to make me a lot of money and save me a lot of money. And I have the three questions on my phone. So I don't do those type of investments. I do what my heart can stomach and what my heart believes in. So like I have insurance.

As a matter of fact, we have a mutual friend, Mario. I put $1.5 million, $1.6 million with Mario under management. And, you know, he has almost a billion dollars under management. Amazing. Yeah, he's a great guy with fidelity, so not no crazy bootleg. So I have insurance. I have mutual funds. Yesterday, I bought some more because of you. This is the perfect time to buy. I'm not giving no financial advice. Please don't listen to me. I will mess you up.

but I bought some more Apple and all of that stuff. Facebook, no Facebook, Meta, Apple. So I have stocks, I have insurance. I started playing around with Bitcoin, maybe from Tony Robbins. I went to Tony Robbins. I was a Tony Robbins platinum partner in 2019. And one of the economists he had on the stage said that if Bitcoin doesn't become a million dollar coin by 2035, then y'all come find me and kill me.

And he was on the screen. He was like, hey, take a picture. And he was like, everybody find a way to get at least one coin. This was back when the coins, I bought a coin for $12,000. I bought two for $12,000. So that's 2019. So I started playing around with the coins. And you said something today. You were like, it's just math.

I've learned when your eyes start to become familiar with the numbers, you kind of start getting algorithm yourself. So I turned $100,000 into almost a million dollars in Bitcoin. Amazing. Playing around. Amazing. So now...

When I parked the car to come in here, it said Bitcoin ATM. I'm getting excited. They know how I feel about Bitcoin. I'm like, oh my God, Bitcoin ATM. So I had Bitcoins. I really wanted to create a relationship with Grant Cardone and I wanted him to put some respect on my name. So I was his, I don't know how he's doing now, but I was his largest investor, black woman, female, human, when I made a $5 million investment. So I invested $5 million with Grant. So I get passive income every month from real estate with Grant.

And, of course, for me now, it's the things that I get to do with my community. You talk about philanthropy. I have a nonprofit.

It's called Girl Hold My Hand. I actually have a proclamation. March 25th is Stormy Wellington Day. So we're going to do something for seniors. We're calling that the Day of Love. I love it. We're going to play bingo with the seniors. We're going to order pizza. We're going to dance with them. We're going to have a DJ. So in terms of money, like diversity, that's done. Like that's done. And even right now, my goal in terms of diversifying even more is to make sure that one industry can't penetrate me.

So, like, I don't want all my money in Bitcoin or crypto or all my money from network marketing. I want if one thing goes down, I'm like, damn, that's messed up. Oh, well, but I got something over here. So that's done. But the philanthropy things is so crazy. Everybody's different. Like my money to you is like probably play money, right? I know it's play money. But there's someone that's going to watch this and they're going to say, oh, my God, if I can make $100,000 a month one day.

That would be everything. Sure. And then you make $100,000 a month and you realize... The goalpost moves. $500,000 a month. Then a million a month. But then one day you're like...

Is it really the money or is it the relationships? Is it the freedom? Is it the people I get to serve and how I get to love? And you realize it's not so much about the number, but the relationships and the things you get to do. So my girl, hold my hand foundation. Like I'm so looking forward to stormy Wellington day this year to see the seniors. My mom passed away, so I don't have a mom anymore. Fleshly mom, a spiritual mom. And so like giving back,

being around love nowadays and not having to worry about money because I diversified. Like not one person could scare me anymore because my money doesn't come from one person. That's a big story. That's deep what I just said. I used to be afraid of certain things because if I pissed this person off or pissed that off, my money may dry up. Now I was like, sure, whatever you say, because I've diversified. I'm giving back. I feel like I'm in a perfect place in my life. Yeah.

So on the investing side, outside of the capital, what about investing into yourself, investing into your mind, investing into your body and your health? Talk to us about investing to yourself. Man, the first of all, the greatest investment you can make is in yourself without you. What is anything?

So I believe investing in yourself, it comes from various different ways. I just told a group of entrepreneurs today, I believe that every single day you should have five wins. You should have a spiritual win, a physical win, a relationship win, a mental win, and a financial win every single day. So I've invested financially in my mind millions of dollars. Like every time I look around and I think about who I've become, it's because of the investments that I made in myself.

The books I've read, the audio books I've listened to, the people I've been around, the conversations I've been privy to, everything, because I invested to get in the right rooms. Today, I cried on the phone with one of my friends and one of my mentors. We both had two different conversations about the same thing. The Stormy Wellington that I used to be would have never paid $5,000 to go to an event. Mm-hmm.

I, that's stupid. I could have bought some shoes. I could have paid a bill because I didn't have the mindset to understand. If I'm paying $5,000 to be in a room, that means I'm in a room with other people that got $5,000 plus the mentality. I didn't understand that I could be calm. I didn't know any of that. Somebody gifted me my first ticket to go to a person, David Sharp. I don't know if you know David Sharp. He invested $750 and gave me a ticket to a Tony Robbins event.

I went to that event. I felt so stupid. I was the only black woman in the room. I was the only black person in the room. I felt weird. They're jumping around. They're speaking these affirmations. And I'm like, this is so stupid. But I didn't have no money to leave. I ended up staying at the event. I grew. I became someone totally different because of that three-day experience. I ended up meeting Tony Robbins. I made a million dollars. I was able to tell him how much that event blessed my life, changed my life. And I was able to come back. Watch this. I just told my girlfriend of this. Free event.

Then I paid to go to Date With Destiny. So I went for free gift. Then I paid $5,000 to go with Date With Destiny. And at Date With Destiny, I paid $84,700 to become a Tony Robbins platinum partner. And I say that to say to you and to whomever may watch this,

There's a process that you go through, but it's levels to you investing in yourself. It may be a free event. It may be a $200 event ticket that you buy in the back of the room. But in the back of that room, that's when you look at the stage and you see the people and you're like, man, this is dope. And you realize who you are and you're like, next time I come to an event, I'm going to be in the front row.

And then you do the work from what you learned in the back of the room to get in the front of the room. And then next, you know, you pay for a hire ticket because you take that information that you learned from investing in yourself. And then you in the back of the room and then you on a stage because you kept growing from events. I think investing in yourself is the most important thing that you can do for yourself. Without you investing in yourself, who else is going to go create the life for you? So you invest in your mind first.

You invest in your body every day. Do something to move your body. I don't care if it's jump rope. I don't care if it's jumping jacks. I don't care if it's squats. I don't care if it's pushups. Every day you got to get that energy flowing and that's an investment in yourself. So,

So every day, no days off. Invest in your mind, invest in your body, invest in workshops, invest in seminars, invest in books, invest in the people around you, too, because you don't want to be growing and the people you claim you love around you dying. So the investments that I believe you make in yourself and the people that's closest to you is probably, again, one of the most important things you could do for yourself. So nowadays, people can make money from their cell phones.

Yes. And you are the most consistent person I've seen on social media because every day you're showcasing morning, noon and night. Yes. The travels, the business, the events, the excitement, everything that goes on. What would you say to that girl that's at home right now in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and she's scared to pull out her phone and just talk and she's scared to showcase her life because she thinks no one cares? That's interesting because I'm still scared right now. I'm scared right now talking to you.

I'm always scared. I'm scared every time they ask me to speak. Sometimes I got to ask myself, why do you want me to speak? And then I got to come back and tell myself because you are enough. I'm scared right now. A tear could fall from my eye right now if I don't know how to keep my eyes open. I'm always scared.

So most people who do things, they scared too. Nobody going to display that they're scared because then you may feel sorry for them and then they may cry. But most of us are all scared. We're just moving in faith. That's what faith is for. Faith is power. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. If you knew what was going to happen in every given moment, you would know when you're going to die. You would know when you're going to be successful. All of us scared. You probably scared about something.

But you get to the point where you do things so much, that's why consistency is so powerful because you become numb and fear becomes a thing of the past. And you're like, oh, I did that shit. So I don't care where you are. As a matter of fact, I'm going to tell you, people love to see you climb to the top. So if you were Albuquerque, New Mexico, if you were in Pork and Bean Projects right here in Miami Gardens, right here, Carroll City, down the street, you're over town, right? People love to see you say, man, I'm on the floor right now. I'm on air matches right now. I'm walking to work.

I'm walking to the bus stop, but I promise you I'm about to read this book every day or I'm about to chant. And you just be consistent. You just got to remember consistency is something that it impacts people differently. When a person sees a consistent person, especially trying, think about this. And I know you're going to say this is real stuff. If you see somebody trying, trying, trying, trying, trying, it makes you want to help them. For sure.

Absolutely. I feel that way about our connection. I feel like you see me sometimes, you be like, she won't let up. If I can help people know who Stormy Wellington is, I'm going to invite her to my stage. Y'all need to meet this girl. I think a part of how we develop our nonverbal love is I see you, girl, and I always see you, and I always see you, and I always see you, and damn, I see you again, and I see you again, and damn, you again. You want to come speak at Limitless? Yes.

Because you saw me. So if you don't ever start, how is somebody going to ever see you? And so I think that we understood that there's so much power in that. It's like, are you going to the basketball game to watch the team or are you going to the game to watch the player in the team, in the game? You're going to watch the player. It ain't the basketball team, it's the player. So we just got to get the player and not be afraid of

Our shortcomings, remember people love your shortcomings. They love, I would never get away from my story. Because they're not going to love me no more. Like, oh, you just all of that. No, I used to be this. I used to be this. You may even want to cry. You may even say, oh my God.

So when I talk, it doesn't feel like I'm bragging because it's like, you damn, yes, girl, go, girl, go. Stormy, you got a rose voice. Listen, look at them diamonds clacking, clacking. I remember I had plastic braces on. But it's the consistency of my truth and my story and my authenticity that makes you want to support me. So it doesn't matter how you start. It's how you finish. Start. You just got to start. A couple things you said. One, when I see someone that's trying...

I'll give you an example. If I'm driving down and I'm at a stoplight and there's a homeless person that's selling flowers or selling candy or doing something or even offering to like wash your windows, I want to give them five or 20, not a dollar, five or 20 because they're trying. That's right. And they're going through a hard time, but they're trying. That's right. Versus someone that just stay on the corner waiting for the dollar. That's right. I've had a homeless charity for 16 years. We've got 6 million items. I love giving money to the homeless, but I really like to do it for single moms. I really like to do it for people that are putting in the work.

Because they are not just asking for money. They want to do it because they're going to help their whole circle. On the fear side, I always ask professional fighters and like the Navy SEALs, like the badasses about the word fear. And I asked Mike Tyson and he said, I wouldn't exist without fear. He said, I used to throw up before my fights. And he finally revealed that decades later. He used to throw up before his fights of extreme fear. And that's why he'd go out there. He's like, if I wasn't scared, they'd knock me out.

So I went out there and I showed and I came out like a tiger and attacked them. I asked, "Aso de la Hoya?" I said, "What's the word fear mean to you?" He's like, "If I didn't have fear, I wouldn't be who I am." - Wow, see I didn't know that. - All right, last segment, charity. So we're talking about make money, invest money, and now we're talking about giving it away. On the charity side, why is it important to someone, if they don't necessarily have the money to donate, why should they at least put in their time, energy, social media power to help something charity related?

Honestly, because I could say my perspective is that I live in principle. God honors the principle. It's not always money that a person needs. You could give a message to someone that changed how they feel from the inside and they go make money. So I think it's more than just money. I think that you could show up in so many different ways to support someone that may need you. And I think the unfortunate thing is that people have limited giving to just money.

Money is needed now. But I think that when you give up your time, like, for example, for Stormy Wellington Day, I'm so excited like a kid to go out there and to play bingo and to laugh with the seniors and to put on lip gloss and to hear their stories. We're actually going to have a segment where we ask them what are their dreams and goals. We're going to do affirmation boards.

I'm excited about that time, and I'm sure that that time is going to recalibrate that senior's mind when they're laying in the bed or when they're having their moments. They're going to remember that time that I spent with them. So I think it impacts me more. I'm more excited about meeting them than they probably are about coming to get some lip gloss. But that experience for me is what makes me want to keep being who I am. Because you

those things take time. Some people can't do those type of things because they don't have time because they got to go to work or they're a single parent. They got to be home with their kids. Some people can't do these type of things because they don't have the money. They don't have the resources. So for me to be able to have the time and the resources, for me having that memory of seeing that senior smile, I'm just, for me, that is something that you just never forget. You know, I tell you something that I teach. You live in three segments. First you see it, then you do it, then you have the memory of it.

So the memory of playing bingo, we're going to meditate. They probably never meditate. Imagine 80 years old and you like, what is meditation? And you meditate and you start seeing your back, your backstory, your childhood. And you start, I'm excited. So the time that I get to spend for me is priceless.

Where can they find you on social media? Where can they find your products? What's going on in your world? Girl, hold my hand. Tell us about everything. So everything that I do is on Instagram. You can go right to my Instagram page at Coach Stormy with a Y. I don't know when this is going to air, but I do an event every year called The Awakening. I do it around March. It's ending this month. It's Awakening month. I'll put the episode now. Oh, God, yes. Awakening. Thank you. Awakening is actually happening March 28th, March 29th, March 30th. This is an event I've been doing for...

11 years. This is my 12th year. I remember when I first did Awakening, I was the one that ran the PowerPoint, did the music. It was $100 to get into Awakening. And it would be 200 people at the Awakening. Everything was me. And now for us to have grown, we have women that's coming from all around the world. You got to submit a letter to come. It's happening right here in Miami. We got pastors, teachers, engineers, entertainers, athletes, people that's coming because they're stuck.

Or they're asleep. And they realize that they're missing something from themselves. And we're going to help them to figure out what that is. So it's happening at the end of this month. You go to my Instagram. And it's right in my bio. And all of my supplements. Everything that I sell or distribute or share. However you want to put it. It's right in my Instagram bio. At Coach Stormy or allthingsstormy.com. That's simple. But I just want to say this. Thank you for always seeing me. You are one person that.

I will always remember that made me feel seen and heard and respected and appreciated. So I want to say thank you for all that you have done for me. And, um,

the people that you have allowed me to meet in your presence that respect me because of you. So thank you. You earned it all. I mean, I see you because you do it. You live it. You breathe it. You do it on a daily basis and nightly basis and in between on the weekends. Like you're always putting the effort. And to me, it's you're that shining star, you know? So it's, it's, I love bringing you to meet everyone because I want them to see it also.
