My Early Life (In Boelus Nebraska)
Boelus Nebraksa Population 181... (1990) I grew up in a small town in Nebraska! I came from a drug addict and abusive family. At 16 years old I had two paths staying in Nebraska surrounded around drugs or Moving away from all of my family with nothing. At the time I was told I wasn't good enough and I wouldn't amount to anything. I was determined to change my story, change my reality, and do better for my little girl. I was a single, and young mom I could've drowned my pain in alcohol and drugs. But my little brown-eyed baby changed the trajectory of my life.
My Start In Transportation!
I started in transportation In 1999 as a translator for a trucking company in Mexico. How I ended up working in Mexico with two babies under the age of 4 is a story for another time. However, this is where I got my first taste of transportation. I would spend the next 8 years working in different positions, and companies within transportation. Then in 2006, my Grams told me "WHY MAKE MILLIONS FOR OTHERS WHEN YOU CAN MAKE IT FOR YOURSELF" Almost 20 years later I have had multiple, multi-million dollar companies, and was a transportation trainer in Mexico and Africa.
"Why Make Millions For Others When You Can Make It For Yourself"
Being A Single Mom & An Entrepreneur!
This is for single moms who are wanting or are entrepreneurs. There will be days when it is 3 am, you just got your kids "who are refusing to sleep" to bed, and life feels like it's falling apart. Own it. No one will ever tell you to own it. They will ask you to put on happy music or push past it. I say own it. Set a "cry" timer. Put on the music that makes you cry or sad and cry for 15-20 mins. Think about all the sadness, sorrow, and mistakes. And then, when the timer goes off, put on happy music, take a shower, and keep pushing. The reality is you have to feel sad emotions to keep going. So do it in a controlled setting, such as your car, bedroom, laundry room, etc. You are going to make mistakes, you are going to fall short, and you are going to disappoint. There will be times when your schedule seems the opposite of all the milestones and events. But when you can be there, be present, be happy, and forget about all that you have missed. I know it is hard. I was a single mom for almost 15 years. Having a partner to help with school pick-up and packing lunches has been a blessing for my youngest Chi. However, I know how hard it is to focus on your business and raise kids alone.
YOU ARE AMAZING! YOU ARE DOING GREAT! YOU GOING TO BE OKAY! IT IS OKAY TO CRY!
My Mission!
Let's go on a journey for a bit, I was told for years, to separate personal from business, and what I found when I listened to others was an emptiness.
At the edge of failure, I had an epiphany, and it all was rooted in LOVE. I became obsessed with learning how to LOVE and this has overflowed into all areas of my life. I know you will come away from knowing me, changed and loved
